Denis Villeneuve's Dune is returning to IMAX on December 3 for a limited time as the film approaches $100 million at the domestic box office.

As reported by Deadline, Dune is currently sitting at $98.1 million at the domestic box office and will undoubtedly cross the $100 million mark this weekend without help from IMAX, but this will give viewers another chance to see the adaptation of Frank Herbert's work now that it is no longer on HBO Max.

As it stands, Dune's IMAX box office to date has nearly reached $50 million, which accounts for 13% of the global box office's ticket sales and 20% of the domestic box office's sales. Dune was specially shot and formatted for IMAX and gives moviegoers "26% more picture for the film." In select theaters, that number can jump to 40% with the IMAX-exclusive 1.42 aspect ratio.

Despite being released in theaters and on HBO Max on October 21, it placed fifth at the domestic box office with $3 million in ticket sales just last week.

In our Dune review, we said that it "is a gorgeous but imperfect epic, a technical wonder that spends too much time setting up a third act that never comes."

Fawzi Mesmar, DICE's head of design that worked on the Battlefield and Star Wars: Battlefront franchises, has decided to leave the company following the launch of Battlefield 2042.

As reported by VGC, his departure was announced via an e-mail sent to DICE's staff, and it "revealed he'd been planning to leave for some time once the studio's latest shooter has been shipped." Mesmar had served as DICE's head of design since 2019, a job he took after being Candy Crush developer King's studio director, production & game design.

“It was an absolute pleasure to serve on the best design teams in the galaxy,” Mesmar wrote in his email to staff. “The incredible design work that you do continues to inspire me every day. Thank you for putting some faith in me, I hope I didn’t disappoint.

"I have been made an offer I couldn’t refuse at another company that has been kind enough to wait for me until we have shipped [Battlefield 2042]. It was super important to me to be here with the team as we achieve this historical milestone.

"While Oskar [Gabrielson, studio GM] and myself have been discussing my succession plans for some time – and it will be announced in due course – we opted to delay this communication till after launch to keep the focus – rightfully so – on the game we’ve been putting a monumental amount of effort on.”

Mesmar's official final day will be November 26 and his currently unknown next position will also be based in Stockholm, Sweden.

Battlefield 2042 was released on November 19, 2021, and its launch was a bit rocky. Despite that, DICE has committed to releasing patches to address the various technical issues and gameplay balancing problems many players are running into.

In our Battlefield 2042 review, we said that its "highpoint is its powerful Portal mode, which lets you relive the series' past glories and tweak them to your liking. Its current batch of modes is overstuffed with players and utter chaos, though Hazard Zone scales things down in an interesting, high-stakes way."

The Roblox Corporation has filed a lawsuit against Roblox content creator Benjamin Robert Simon a.k.a. Ruben Sim for leading a "cybermob" that, among other things, posts "false and misleading terrorist threats."

As reported by Polygon, this lawsuit was filed on Tuesday, November 23 and alleges that Simon "commits and encourages unlawful acts designed to injure Roblox and its users." The Roblox Company is looking to collect $1.6 million in damages and is suing Simon for fraud, breach of contract and four other counts.

Despite Simon being banned for years from Roblox, he has found a way in by "hacking" and using accounts created by other users. He was originally banned for "harassing users and using racist and homophobic slurs, as well as for sexual harassment and uploading photos of Adolf Hitler, Roblox's lawyers said."

Recently, Simon posted "terrorist threats" that "temporarily shut down the Roblox Developers Conference in San Francisco in October." The lawsuit alleges that Simon and his "cybermob" discussed the YouTube headquarters shooting from April 2018 and reportedly said, "wait until [someone] does it to Roblox."

He continued to reportedly post messages suggesting that San Francisco police were "searching for notorious Islamic Extremist" at RDC 2021 and wrote messages like "don't come to RDC tomorrow." As a result of these threats, RDC was "forced into a temporary lockdown while local police and private security conducted a search to secure the facility." Roblox said it cost $50,000 to "investigate and secure RDC after the incident."

This is hardly the first issue Roblox – a company that is now worth more than Ubisoft and Take-Two combined – has had to deal with, as it recently had to stop a number of users who were recreating New Zealand's Christchurch mass shooting from 2019.

Sledgehammer Games has disabled the Secrets of the Pacific event in Call of Duty: Vanguard – which gives players details on Warzone Pacific's new map Caldera – due to "widespread crashing issues."

Secrets of the Pacific is a crossover event between Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone, and it features challenges that reveal more about Caldera and its points of interest when completed. While Warzone doesn't seem to be impacted, Vanguard players have been reporting that it is causing widespread crashing.

Sledgehammer announced that the Secrets of Pacific Event would be disabled while it works to "squash this bug." Despite giving no timetable for its return, it did promise that any progress already earned in the event will not be lost and players will be able to continue where they left off as soon as the problem is resolved.

This event, and many more, are all leading to the launch of Season 1 of Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone Pacific's Caldera map on December 8, 2021. Those who own Vanguard will get to try the new map 24 hours early before it is available to all Warzone players on December 9.

Even though Verdansk '84 is going away, Caldera looks to bring a breath of fresh air to Warzone with picturesque beaches and mountains that will give players some new scenery to enjoy while working to be the last one standing.

Alongside Season 1 of Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone Pacific's Caldera map, Activision is also gearing up to release Ricochet, its own Anti-Cheat initiative developed specifically for Call of Duty. This new "multi-faceted approach" is designed to combat cheating using kernel-level monitors and will be required to play Call of Duty: Warzone on PC.
