Fans have taken to social media to speculate on setlists and tour concepts, highlighting the strong anticipation surrounding their return.
As Blackpink gears up to kick off 'Deadline,' the K‑pop quartet continues to balance global stardom with ongoing individual pursuits.
'This is just the beginning,' said YG Entertainment in a statement, according to Korea JoongAng Daily.

Blackpink will perform 31 shows across 16 cities, including major stops in Los Angeles, Paris, Bangkok and Tokyo.

Here's what a Nintendo superfan says about the new Switch 2
Nintendo's new Switch 2 is already off to a strong start – selling over 3.5 million consoles in just its first four days. I've been testing it out to see what's new and how it compares to the original. The Switch 2 builds on what made the original so popular – portability, flexibility, and a huge library of great games. But it adds a bunch of smart upgrades. First off, the screen is bigger. So is the unit itself – but it's still manageable to hold. The controllers now attach magnetically instead of sliding in, and that in itself is a big improvement. 'On this one it's just like a nice little snap and you're done,' said Nintendo fan Henry Mayhew, who helped me put the Switch 2 through its paces. He bought his console on day one. The dock is redesigned and adds to the system's versatility. You can play on your TV in up to 4K, take it on the go for HD graphics, or prop it up tabletop style. The controllers even work like a mouse now. Buttons feel better, the software runs faster, and graphics, haptics, and sound are all improved. 'The graphics are definitely improved and then it's more engaging to play' said Mayhew. Another big upgrade is game sharing. Downloadable titles now act as virtual game cards, which means you can share them with friends or use them across profiles. 'It's really nice not having the other person to have to have the game for you to be able to play it with them,' Mayhew said. One standout new feature is GameChat. It lets you voice chat while playing, and even plug in a USB-C camera. There's a new 'C' button to activate it. It's free through March 2026, and kids under 16 will need parental controls enabled to use it. 'I mean it's pretty fun…' said Mayhew. The only real downside? Battery life. 'Controllers… those will last you a decade,' said Mayhew. 'But then the battery life on the Switch 2… that only lasts 2–6 hours, and for me personally, it only lasts 3 hours before I have to dock it or plug it in again.' The Switch 2 starts at $450 – or $500 with the new Mario Kart bundled. The next big release? Donkey Kong Bananza, coming mid-July for $70. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

The ‘Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle' Trailer Locks In For the End
Shonen fans have had eyes on Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba since it dropped in 2019, and it's making its way back to the big screen. Sony and Crunchyroll released the first trailer for the series' upcoming Infinity Castle movie, which will be the first in a trilogy that's rtaking big steps toward wrapping things up. Based on the manga's arc of the same name (which spans Chapters 140-183) and picking up after the end of season four, the members of the Slayer Corps have been transported into the titular castle, a massive pocket dimension that's also the lair of demon lord Muzan Kibutsuji. To bring down Muzan, Tanjiro and his fellow Corps members will have to carve through the Castle's horde of demons, which also include Muzan's Kizuki lieutenants. One way or another, Tanjiro is determined to reach Muzan and kill him so he can finally cure his sister Nezuko. Infinity Castle follows suit from 2020's Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train, in that it's an actual film rather than a compilation of previous anime episodes. Mugen earned $507 million worldwide, turning it into the highest-grossing Japanese film ever, and propelled the anime into massive popularity. Infinity is the series' penultimate arc, and at the moment, Ufotable's keeping focus solely on this one movie: it hasn't mentioned anything about the second and third installments, or if it'll also adapt the 'Sunrise Countdown' arc into film once this trilogy is done. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba – The Movie: Infinity Castle hits theaters on September 12. It's time to have some fun 🔥 Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle premieres September 12, only in theatres ⚔️ — Crunchyroll (@Crunchyroll) June 28, 2025Want more io9 news?
