Tickets for this year’s highly anticipated new Star Wars movie, The Last Jedi, go on sale very soon. Ticket company Fandango has announced that pre-sales for tickets will open tomorrow, October 9, after the new trailer airs during Monday Night Football. [Update: You might have a chance to snag tickets early, as CNET reports that the Showcase Cinemas app is selling them right now.]

Fandango is the “most anticipated movie of the year,” the ticket-seller said, citing one of its surveys. A survey of Fandango users showed that an astonishingly high percentage–95 percent–said they plan to see the movie in theatres. The film, which is directed by Loooper‘s Rian Johnson opens on December 15.

Fandango is of course just one ticket-seller, but the company appears to be the first to say when tickets go on sale. Buying through Fandango gets you a free Last Jedi poster.

“There’s nothing quite like a new Star Wars movie, with its nostalgic appeal, new characters and creatures, rousing action and inspiring storyline,” Fandango Managing Editor Erik Davis said in a statement. “This is why we go to the movies, and fans are already eager to snag their advance tickets on Fandango to see The Last Jedi two months from now.”

The new Last Jedi trailer will premiere tomorrow, October 9, during the Monday Night Football broadcast on ESPN. Johnson recently said that some people may want to “absolutely avoid it” if they are hoping to go into the film with fresh eyes.

Given that he appeared in the previous game and is one of the most iconic fictional characters ever, it should come as no surprise that Darth Vader will be featured in Star Wars Battlefront II. Nevertheless, it wasn’t until today that EA officially announced him and provided our first look at this latest iteration.

The video below shows off Vader in action, and he’s lot like you would expect–he slices opponents down with his lightsaber (Saber Throw) and lifts others up with the Force to damage them (Force Choke). He also has an ability called Focused Rage that essentially makes him tougher overall, allowing him to deal and receive more damage than usual.

That’s unfortunately all we have to go on at this point, but it provides a pretty good sense of the type of unit that Vader will function as in multiplayer. The beta offers a look at a number of other returning and new choices that players have at their disposal, such as Rey, Boba Fett, and and Han Solo.

Battlefront II’s beta has been extended; it had been expected to end earlier today, October 9. It will now run for an additional two days, though the full game’s release is still planned for November 17 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

Europe’s most recent Splatfest may have just wrapped up, but Splatoon 2 players in North America will soon have a chance to take part in their own competition. The region’s next Splatfest takes place this weekend, and for the first time since the Nintendo Switch shooter launched, it will have a different theme from Europe.

The Splatfest begins on Friday, October 13, at 9 PM PT/12 AM ET. Like previous events, it will run for a full 24 hours. Fittingly, the theme for the October Splatfest is inspired by Halloween; players must settle the debate over which classic monster is superior, vampires or werewolves.

The Splatfest that recently concluded in Europe wasn’t Halloween-themed, but it did ask an important question: do you hang your toilet roll over or under? Fortunately, sanity seems to have prevailed; Team Front Roll took home the contest, winning in a landslide in the popularity category and edging out Team Back Roll in solo victories to clinch the competition. Those who participated in the event will receive Super Sea Snails the next time they turn the game on.

As usual, one of the maps that will be featured during the Splatfest this weekend is Shifty Station, which will have a brand-new layout for this competition. Meanwhile, another new map, Snapper Canal, recently made its debut in Splatoon 2. Alongside the map, Nintendo released the latest free DLC weapon, the Bamboozler 14 Mk, which you can now purchase with in-game currency from the Ammo Knights shop.

The one and only KFC founder and fast food icon Colonel Sanders will be playable in WWE 2K18.

The news was announced during a stunt at WWE’s “Hell in a Cell” pay-per-view event, during which Kurt Angle dressed up as the Colonel and went up against WWE Superstar Heath Slater, who was dressed as the Colonel’s arch rival, Puppers Cluckers Chicken.

Players can access Colonel Sanders through the game’s Create-a-Superstar Mode. You’ll also gain access to two versions of Angle if you pre-order the game. Check out the screenshots (above and below) for an in-game look at Colonel Sanders in action.

If you haven’t yet gotten around to trying out the Star Wars Battlefront II beta, or you simply haven’t had your fill, you’re in luck. Electronic Arts has extended the beta an extra two days, providing players with more time to see what the sequel has to offer.

The beta had been scheduled to end earlier today, but it will now instead run until Wednesday, October 11. EA didn’t say why it made the change or if any additional content would be introduced. As it stands, you can sample four modes: Galactic Assault, Starfighter Assault, Strike, and Arcade. The first three are online multiplayer modes that range in maximum player count (going as high as 40 in Galactic Assault). Arcade is a 1-2 player mode with offline split-screen support.

You can check out our previous coverage for more details on exactly what’s in the Battlefront II beta. The beta began on October 4 for people who pre-ordered, later opening to everyone on October 6. The campaign is inaccessible, but you can get a decent taste of the multiplayer–and its contentious microtransaction system.

Star Wars Battlefront II releases on November 17. We’ve already played some of the content featured in the beta and came away impressed. Interestingly, the 2005 Star Wars: Battlefront II has also received a new update that restored multiplayer and allows cross-play between Steam and GOG.

We got some hands on with the new English version of Code Vein. With a longer demo we were able to explore a little more of the area, find some new weapons and kill some new monsters.
