Are you shopping around for a new TV to watch the football championship games and the big game itself? Well don't forget that a big, gorgeous picture is incomplete without some equally big, impressive sound to back it up, especially when it comes to sports games. Sonos doesn't have a sale running right now, but that doesn't mean you have to pay full price.
The Sonos online store hosts a Recertified section that takes a modest discount off your favorite soundbars, speakers, and headphones. Sonos refurbished products go through rigorous testing; they come with all accessories, manuals, and documentation and are reshipped in "pristine" packaging. Sonos includes the same 1-year warranty as new.
Sonos Era 100 Smart Speaker for $179
The Sonos Era 100 retails for $219 new, or you can save about 20% off a certified refurbished model for just $79. This is Sonos' most popular and most versatile speaker. Despite its compact size, the Era 100 houses two tweeters, a mid-woofer, and three class-D digital amplifiers to produce precise, distortion-free audio even at high volumes. It has a built-in microphone for smart functionality. Because of its flexibility, it's often paired with a sound bar or a second Era speaker.
Sonos Beam (Gen 2) Soundbar for $399
The Sonos Beam is a great option for someone who requires a more compact sound bar or simply doesn't want to spend too much money on a speaker system. The recertified model is attractively priced at just $399, or $100 than buying it new. The Beam (Gen 2) is a 26-inch long, 5.0-channel soundbar with one tweeter and four mid-woofers for natural, balanced sound and four passive radiators to help with the low end. Although the Beam doesn't have physical height channels, it has two virtual height channels for Dolby Atmos support. There's also a built-in microphone for smart functionality.
Sonos Arc Soundbar for $549
The release of the Arc Ultra doesn't make the Arc any less of an outstanding speaker. The Arc is officially discontinued and no longer sold new. However, when it was available, it was priced at $899 so it's 40% cheaper right now as a refurb. This 45" soundbar houses eleven precisely engineered internal speakers, including three tweeters and eight midwoofers each paired with Class-D amplifiers. Unlike the Sonos Beam, which only has virtual height channels, the Arc has two physical height channels for true Dolby Atmos support. It also has a built-in mic for smart functionality.
Sonos Mini Subwoofer for $399
The audio savvy knows that a single speaker isn't enough to reproduce an entire soundstage. If you could pick only one other speaker to supplement your existing one, then a subwoofer would make the most meaningful impact. If you are space constrained, consider the Sub Mini. Despite its compact size, the Sub Mini can still powerful room-filling bass by way of two inward-facing 6" drivers contained in a sealed (non-ported) enclosure. It features wireless connectivity so you can avoid the hassle of routing a cable back to the rest of your home theater components. The recertified model is $100 (20%) cheaper than buying it new.
Sonos Move 2 Portable Speaker for $399
The Move 2 is Sonos' biggest and best portable speaker. It's size allows it to house two tweeters, a mid-woofer, and three class-D digital amplifiers. This is a standalone speaker with a self-contained battery and can be carried around from room to room. The battery provides up to 24 hours of continuous playtime and a simple but effective docking station essentially turns it into a powered speaker. It is IP56 rated for weather resistance and has a built-in microphone so that it can accept voice commands and is compatible with smart assistants.
Why Sonos?
If you're looking for an easy solution to add great sound to your home, then you've probably already heard of Sonos. Sonos speakers are very easy to set up, don't take a large amount of space, and most importantly, offer distortion-free room-filling audio. They're definitely pricier than budget options, but the sound quality is comparable to speakers that cost hundreds more or take up much more space.

If Animal Crossing: New Horizons' 3.0 update earlier this month wasn't enough for you, don't worry, there's a new hype train you can board. IKEA just recently posted a TikTok with some very familiar sights and sounds, and it has us hoping for a furniture collaboration soon.
As spotted by Polygon, the official TikTok page for IKEA France posted a video two days ago that very much seems to be teasing something Animal Crossing-related. In the video, a very distinctively Animal Crossing leaf floats down from the ceiling of an empty room, before a hand cursor clicks on it and turns it into furniture, cycling through four different types of IKEA furniture (two bookcases in different styles, a dresser, and a couch). The video description, via TikTok's translation from French, reads, "We still don't accept cash bells. #ikea #animalcrossing"
The background music, while not identifiable immediately as any specific Animal Crossing theme, certainly has the correct xylophone and according sounds going. And the sound effects of clicking and cycling between furniture are 100% straight from Animal Crossing. To me, that reads that whatever's going on here at minimum has Nintendo's blessing.
Furthermore, IKEA and Nintendo have collaborated on Animal Crossing stuff before. Five years ago, IKEA Taiwan recreated one of its print catalog using nothing but screenshots from Animal Crossing: New Horizons. IKEA has also done proper in-game collaborations with games like The Sims in the past, so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to see something like IKEA furniture in Animal Crossing, or Animal Crossing furniture sold at IKEA.
Personally, I'm all on board of this means we get Blåhaj in Animal Crossing, or a real-life Froggy Chair. We'll keep our eyes peeled for any sort of official confirmation.
Fans of two of the biggest movies of 2025 will have a reason to return to special IMAX showings in the near future, Variety reports. It’s unclear when the genre-defying vampire movie and the Leonardo DiCaprio-led action thriller will get 70mm release dates, but the site says the former is expected to premiere during its Oscar run, with the latter set to arrive “in the coming weeks,” too.
Sinners, which was shot with 70mm film, shook moviegoers with its tale of music and blood-sucking villains set in a 1930’s Mississippi when it premiered last April. Its IMAX victory lap follows its history-making presence at yesterday’s Oscars ceremony, where it managed to walk away with a record-breaking 16 nominations, securing its place as the most nominated film of all time. Michael B. Jordan, Miles Caton, Delroy Lindo, and Wunmi Mosaku-led film is up for numerous acting roles, as well as Best Picture, Original Screenplay, Achievement in Sound, and more.
Trailing closely behind was One Battle After Another, which is driving to the 98th Academy Awards with a still-impressive 13 nominations. PTA’s latest has also certainly earned its place among the competition thanks to standout performances from DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro, Teyana Taylor, and Chase Infiniti in a tale about an ex-revolutionary faced with a relentless and threatening face from his past. It’s up for Adapted Screenplay, Original Score, Editing, Best Picture, and more.
The Oscars, set to take place March 15, 2026, seem set to be set up for quite the blood bath as moviegoers hop to see their favorite filmmakers called to the stage to deliver their speeches. As two of the night’s most-nominated movies head back for 70mm showings, it will surely only encourage new and old fans to tune in ahead of their big night. There are, however, only limited number of IMAX theaters that support 70mm across the globe, so if you’re interested in attending any of the aforementioned showings, you’ll want to make sure you grab your tickets fast.
Meanwhile, another Oscar contender, Josh Safdie’s Marty Supreme, is also set for a nationwide IMAX release ahead as award season gets into gear. Variety’s report adds that Brad Pitt’s F1 movie could also secure a 70mm release. For more, you can read our 9/10 Sinner review, where we said the Coogler flick “expertly blends plenty of vampires and music into a compelling story about twin brothers.” You can also check out our 10/10 One Battle After Another review, which saw us praising the movie as a “masterpiece.”

Queen’s Blood fans, it's time to celebrate. The addictive Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth card game is making a “powered-up” comeback for the final chapter in Square Enix’s remake trilogy.
Polygon spoke with director Naoki Hamaguchi about the progress of development on Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 and touched on the topic of one of the more popular virtual pastimes of 2024. He says he plans to double down on the card game when its next installment finally launches, promising to “expand” what was seen with its Rebirth launch.
“Queen’s Blood is a very popular and beloved minigame, and I believe a lot of people are still wanting something like that,” Hamaguchi said. “I want to expand on Queen’s Blood so that we are enhancing it, and giving you a more powered-up version of it when you see that third installment… Queen’s Blood is still going to be available in the third installment. We just want to expand on it.”
The director declines to share exactly what a spruced-up version of Queen’s Blood will look like, but it’s easy to imagine an expansion of new cards and new side-quests shaking up the gameplay. However, Hamaguchi’s comments suggest players may be in for a somewhat substantial upgrade.
Hamaguchi adds that the original Final Fantasy 7 mini-game featuring snowboarding is also coming back for Remake Part 3. He teases that “it’s not going to be just a simple snowboarding minigame,” adding that it will be incorporated into the story and its themes, but stops short of providing more details.
The Final Fantasy 7 remake trilogy is jam-packed with a variety of mini-games to keep Cloud and company’s fight against Sephiroth from getting too serious, but most fans are just looking forward to seeing how the retelling will finally finish its story. Hamaguchi and the rest of the Square Enix team is far from ready to share a release date, but he says development is at least “coming along very smoothly.”
“We have set a schedule for ourselves, and I believe we are tracking on time for the milestones we have set,” Hamaguchi adds. “So I’m really thankful for the development team and I have so much respect for them working on this project. I believe that at this point the game is playable, technically, but we are still trying to polish it so it is at a quality where we can deliver it to our players.”
Square Enix has had a lot of luck when it comes to Final Fantasy cards in recent history. Despite the overwhelming number of mini-games present in Rebirth, Final Fantasy 7 fans largely took to Queen’s Blood, all 145 of its collectible cards, and the strategy is added to the overall experience. In the real world, Magic: The Gathering fans spent 2025 obsessing about its Final Fantasy-themed set, which included dozens of references to not only Final Fantasy 7 but all 16 mainline entries, too.

Prebuilt gaming PC prices are on the rise for 2026, but iBuyPower - one of the more popular and well known system builders on the market - is softening the blow by offering a month end Clearance Sale which takes up to $400 off select systems along with a coupon code "CLEARANCE" that stacks on these tiered discounts:
5% OFF Custom Desktops over $999
$100 OFF Ready to Ship Prebuilt PCs over $1999 Code
$50 OFF Ready to Ship Prebuilt PCs over $999 Code
This sale runs through this weekend only and ends on January 26. iBuypower offers free standard shipping on all configs, however can also get a slight discount by choosing a slower shipping service. All systems are covered by a three year labor and two year parts warranty. Below are the best deals sorted by GPU.
iBuypower Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming PC for $1,899
This is the least expensive system on this list that I'd feel comfortable recommending to anyone who plans to play current generation games on a 4K monitor. The specs include an AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU, AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT 16GB GPU, 32GB of DDR5-5600MHz RAM, and a 2TB SSD. The system is enclosed in a custom designed and officially licensed HYTE limited edition Persona 3 themed Y70 chassis (HYTE is iBuypower's sister company).
The AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT is the only 2025 GPU that we gave a 10/10 score. Even though it costs $150 less than the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, the 9070 XT beats it out in several of the games we tested. In a few benchmarks, the results aren't even close. The 9070 XT approaches the performance of the $1,000 RX 7900 XTX but with better ray tracing and upscaling performance than its predecessor. Check out our AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT review.
iBuypower GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Gaming PC for $2,049
This 4K gaming ready system isn't that much more expensive and you get an incredibly rare RTX 5070 Ti GPU. The full specs include an AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB GPU, 32GB of DDR5-5600MHz RAM, and a 2TB SSD. The system is also enclosed in a HYTE chassis, this time the recently released X50 case, which was a big hit at CES 2026 for its very unique curvaceous design and excellent cooling potential.
Of all the Blackwell cards released thus far, the RTX 5070 Ti offers the best value for high-fps 4K gaming. It performs neck-and-neck with the RTX 4080 Super but with the added bonus of newer GDDR7 VRAM and multi-frame generation. If you plan on using this card for AI, the RTX 5070 Ti is a better value than the RTX 5080 since both have same amount of RAM (16GB). Compared to AMD, the RTX 5070 Ti is roughly comparable in raw performance to the AMD RX 9070 XT, but the 5070 Ti has better upscaling (especially with DLSS 4.5) and ray tracing. Check out our RTX 5070 Ti review.
iBuypower GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Gaming PC for $1,499
For comfortable 1080p gaming without overspending, the RTX 5060 Ti is the card you want. This system is equipped with an Intel Core i7-14700F CPU, GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB GPU, 32GB of DDR5-6000MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD.
RTX 5060 Ti GPUs comes in two variants: an excellent 16GB model and a ridiculously lame 8GB model. Fortunately, this system is equipped with the 16GB model. The RTX 5060 Ti (16GB) is a great GPU for 1080p gaming. It outperforms the RTX 4060 Ti by about 20%, and the gap widens in games that support DLSS 4 technology with multi-frame generation. The 16GB of VRAM also allows this GPU to hold its own in 1440p gaming, especially if you don't want to spend the extra $300 to upgrade to an RTX 5070. Check out our RTX 5060 Ti review for more details.
iBuypower GeForce RTX 5070 Gaming PC for $1,749
This system is perfect for gamers who run QHD (2560x1440) or WQHD (3440x1440) monitors. Specs include an Intel Core i7-14700K CPU, GeForce RTX 5070 12GB GPU, 32GB of DDR5-6000MHz RAM, and a 2TB SSD.
The RTX 5070 performs on par with the previous generation RTX 4070 Super - which was already an excellent card for 1080p and 1440p gaming - and then with DLSS 4.5 and multi-frame generation thrown in. It's equipped with 12GB of GDDR7 VRAM which allows it to keep up with high-fps gaming at 1440p. You'll also be able to run most games in 4K as well, although depending on the game you may need to tweak your graphics settings. I myself gamed on an RTX 3080 (which is inferior to the 5070) in 4K for a long time without any real complaints until I finally upgraded last year.
iBuypower GeForce RTX 5080 Gaming PC for $2,499
If you're looking for a system that can run any game imaginable at 4K, with comfortable 60fps+ frame rates (much higher with multi-frame gen) and ray tracing enabled, then the RTX 5080 could be worth its hefty price tag. This system includes an AMD Ryzen 9 9900X CPU, GeForce RTX 5080 16GB CPU, 32GB of DDR5-6000MHz RAM, and a 2TB SSD.
The RTX 5080 is a powerhouse. It's one of the fastest cards on the market, bested only by the $2,000 RTX 5090 and the discontinued $1,600 RTX 4090. This is a phenomenal card for playing the latest, most demanding games in 4K resolution at high settings and ray tracing enabled. Check out our GeForce RTX 5080 review for our hands-on impressions.
iBuypower RTX 5060 Gaming PC for $1,049
For avid gamers on a budget, iBuypower has a deal for you too. Specs on this system include an Intel Core i5-1440F CPU, GeForce RTX 5060 8GB GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5200MHz of RAM, and a 1TB SSD.
The RTX 5060 outperforms its predecessor the RTX 4060 by about 20%-30% and that's before factoring in multi-frame generation. This is a solid budget option for 1080p gaming and you should be able to squeeze consistent 60fps+ framerate out of just about any game with some tweaking. If you're gunning for higher resolutions like 1440p or 4K, however, you'll definitely want to upgrade to an RTX 5060 Ti (16GB) or better.

Highguard has reemerged after going dark following its much-discussed reveal at the end of The Game Awards last month, with a launch showcase that reaffirms it really is coming out next week.
Due out January 26, Highguard ended The Game Awards 2025 with its reveal trailer, and it gave fans a look at the new free-to-play PvP raid shooter from some of the creators of Respawn's Apex Legends and Titanfall. Players will "ride, fight, and raid as Wardens, arcane gunslingers sent to fight for control of a mythic continent."
Some had wondered what was happening with Highguard given developer Wildlight Entertainment failed to follow up its The Game Awards reveal with any new trailers or even more detailed information about how it works. It’s fair to say that some felt Highguard did not warrant the coveted big finish slot at The Game Awards — the biggest video game reveal show in the world — and it has suffered from a degree of negativity online since. With the likes of Sony's disastrous live-service PvP shooter Concord still fresh in the memory, some have even declared Highguard "dead on arrival."
Here’s the official blurb on the launch showcase:
Tune in on Monday, January 26 at 10am PT for an in-depth look at Highguard direct from the studio, featuring a full gameplay deep dive, year one plans, and much more.
It looks like Wildlight is trying to replicate the hugely successful launch of Apex Legends, which publisher EA released in 2019 with little pre-release marketing but heavy involvement from streamers on its actual release date. Highguard is set to launch across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S.

The Switch 2 library is growing this year, and the Super Mario Bros. Wonder Nintendo Switch 2 Edition is joining the party soon. This upgraded version of the 2023 Switch game includes some fresh enhancements alongside a new expansion called "Meetup in Bellabel Park" and some new characters joining the fun. It's quite the upgrade, and it's still a couple of months away (mark your calendars for March 26), but preorders are already live at select retailers.
Similar to other Switch 2 Editions that have released, there's a digital upgrade pack for those who already have the original Switch version, alongside a standard, complete version of the game's Switch 2 version for those who don't currently own the original. We've included where you can preorder a full physical copy of the game (for $79.99) and this upgrade pack (for $19.99) below.
Preorder Super Mario Bros. Wonder for the Switch 2 (Physical)
Physical copies can be found at both Target and GameStop, and we're keeping an eye out to see when other retailers drop it as well. As for the digital version, that hasn't gone up for preorder yet, for some reason. We'll be sure to update it once it's available, though.
Preorder Super Mario Bros. Wonder Switch 2 Upgrade Pack
If you already have Super Mario Bros. Wonder on Nintendo Switch and are just hoping to get the upgrade pack to use it on your Switch 2, that's currently available to preorder right now at the Nintendo eShop. For $19.99, this will set you up with all of the extras from the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition when the game is released on March 26.
Save on Super Mario Bros. Wonder
Considering the pricey cost of the physical Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, this is a neat little hack you can do to save a little cash. At the moment, Woot is offering the original version of Super Mario Bros. Wonder for $46.99. If you don't already own it, you can buy from Woot at this good price and then purchase the upgrade pack, which brings your total cost to $66.98. Compared to the $79.99 price tag for the physical Switch 2 Edition, this is a great little deal to take advantage of.

Early signs suggest it’s a welcome return to a much-beloved Plane, too, having been delayed from 2025. Lorwyn has been part of Magic’s locations since 2007, and there are some great cards in the set - including some that are already spiking in value.
The Most Expensive Cards From Lorwyn Eclipsed
We’ve got the most valuable Lorwyn Eclipsed cards you can find right now listed below, with the caveat that this is based on pre-launch pricing taken as close to release as we can, courtesy of data from the lovely folks at TCGplayer.
We'll ensure this list is updated next week as well, so bookmark this page and check back in again soon. For now, let's check out what's hot on release weekend for Magic's latest set, Lorwyn Eclipsed.
10 - Glen Elendra Guardian (Showcase) - From $33.55
This three-cost Faerie Wizard has some absolutely stunning artwork, and can be cast with Flash. It’s a 3/4 with flying, but arrives with a -1/-1 counter, which can be removed as an activated ability that also counters a noncreature spell.
It’s a 4/2, five-cost Elf Warrior creature with (you guessed it) Flash. It’s also got Convoke, and turns creatures of your chosen type hexproof and indestructible until end of turn.
7 - Harmonized Crescendo (Showcase) - From $63.62
This six-cost Instant has Convoke, and lets you draw cards based on the number of cards you have in that type. There’s great artwork, too, showing merfolk singing.
With some amazing artwork that extends from beyond the card’s borders, this Showcase treatment for Moonshadow is awesome - and could net you upwards of $75.
It’s a one-cost Elemental with 7/7 (yes, you read that right) and Menace, but it enters with six -1/-1 counters. You remove those counters when permanents enter your graveyard.
5 - Bloom Tender (Showcase) - From $114.62
At the time of writing, this Showcase Bloom Tender is being sold for $600, but its current market value is closer to $110 according to TCGPlayer.
It’s a 1/1 Elf Druid, but it taps for mana from permanents you control. Could be a good inclusion if you’re upgrading the Dance of the Elements precon.
4 - Winnowing (Showcase Fracture Foil) - From $228.50
This version of Winnowing breaks the $200 barrier, with some gorgeous, colorful art and that always impressive Fracture Foil treatment.
As for what it does, this six-cost Sorcery has Convoke and allows you to essentially boardwipe all but one of your opponents’ creatures.
3 - Moonshadow (Showcase Fracture Foil) - From $295
Yep, that’s a big jump for this version of Moonshadow, which is functionally the same as any other Moonshadow card in the set.
Not only is Lorwyn Eclipsed the first set of a fairly packed year for Magic fans, but it marks big changes to the product lineup as well.
For starters, theme decks are back for Standard play, while a new Draft Night boxed product encourages players to, well, draft cards to build their decks. Then there's our first Commander decks since Edge of Eternities, and both look pretty great.
If you're looking to pick up the rarest cards going, then you'll want to invest in the Collector Booster Box, as it has the highest pull rates going. Good luck, and let us know if you manage to score anything good when cracking those new packs.
