Additional Playable Characters

Additional Playable Characters

The developer has skillfully built excitement leading up to their major game release this year. Recent previews show a game with a strong, compelling story and a fantastic combination of everything fans love about the series.

Today, the developers released the second in a series of detailed videos about the game Crimson Desert. This video focuses on how the combat works and how players will progress. The game’s box art also reveals that you’ll be able to play as characters other than Cliff, with two additional characters shown alongside him.

These two characters share a complex past on the BBC One soap. They had a brief affair six years ago when Linda was experiencing problems in her marriage with Mick Carter (Danny Dyer).

I’m really excited about the cast they’ve assembled for this film! We’ve got Stephen Dillane, who I always remember from Game of Thrones, and Ian Hart, of course known for his work in the Harry Potter films. Anya Chalotra, who was fantastic in The Witcher, is joining them, as is Kyle Soller from Andor. And I’m thrilled to see Niamh Algar, who I really enjoyed in The Iris Affair, is also part of the project. It’s a seriously talented group!

The original hosts presented the car show for eight years, starting in 2016, and finished with a final episode called ‘One for the Road’ in 2024.

I just finished watching the latest episode of the new series, and it was really something special. It followed Sam as they tried to unravel a really old Starfleet secret. But honestly, the biggest thing was how much it honored Avery Brooks, the amazing actor who played Captain Sisko on Deep Space Nine. They really paid tribute to him throughout the whole episode, and it ended with the iconic Deep Space Nine theme music and a simple, heartfelt message: “Thank you, Avery.” It was a beautiful touch.

The new book, simply called ‘Blair,’ revisits the popular character Blair Waldorf in her 40s. She’s back in New York City and once again involved in the glamorous world of the Upper East Side’s elite.

Okay, so everyone’s losing their minds over Shōgun, and for good reason – it’s been a massive hit! The good news is, FX and Hulu have already greenlit a second season. Now, the first season actually covered the entire book, but this new one isn’t a direct adaptation. It’s going to be a completely new story, picking up about ten years after where we left off. They’ve already started filming up in Vancouver, and apparently, they’re building all sorts of amazing new sets at the Flavelle Sawmill. It’s smart, too – they filmed the first season in British Columbia to look like feudal Japan, and they’re going back there to keep that same incredible visual feel going for Season 2. I’m already excited!

I’m so excited – they’re finally bringing this game to PlayStation! It’s hitting PS4 on March 5th, 2026, which I’ve already marked on my calendar!
