Japan is a big draw for the game, but Forza Horizon 6 offers much more than just a beautiful setting. While the map is stunning, it can’t carry the weight of expectations for such a popular series on its own. Japan is simply the backdrop for a rich world filled with rewarding progress, thrilling exploration, and satisfying rewards that keep you engaged and driving fast on every road.
Last year was particularly difficult for Ubisoft, marking the company’s worst financial performance to date. They’re hoping a lineup of promising new games will help them recover from these losses, but with those games still some time away, concerns are growing about whether Ubisoft can maintain stability through a continued period of financial hardship.
Tom Hardy quickly gained recognition with roles in films like Inception, Warrior, and The Dark Knight Rises, where he played the memorable villain Bane. This success led to his part in Mad Max: Fury Road, which remains one of his most popular movies. Known for taking unexpected paths, Hardy then stepped away from major Hollywood films to star in television series such as Peaky Blinders and Mobland. While he was let go from season two of Mobland, this could actually be beneficial, allowing him to revisit and continue his critically acclaimed series, Taboo.
From 2016 to 2021, Kim’s Convenience was a hugely popular Canadian show, earning numerous award nominations and attracting a large audience. It was especially praised for its portrayal of Canadian-Korean culture, something star Simu Liu frequently highlighted. Unfortunately, after eight years, all five seasons will be removed from Netflix worldwide on June 2nd. Surprisingly, only the first two seasons were ever released on DVD or Blu-ray. Currently, the only way to watch beyond streaming is to purchase seasons digitally from Prime Video, starting at $9.99 per season. This means it will soon be unnecessarily hard to access the show after it leaves Netflix. Hopefully, it will become available on another streaming service in the future.
Okay, so Obsidian just put out a statement on Twitter about that whole PS5 upgrade thing for The Outer Worlds. You know, the one they promised would be free for people who already owned the game on PS4? They’re finally addressing what’s going on with it.
Activision is using its standard marketing approach for this year’s game, and you can now pre-order the digital version on the PlayStation Store.
The conclusion of the Home trilogy was both satisfying and a little sad, but it also allows Tom Holland’s Spider-Man to become more like the character from the comics. While his story in the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been excellent, some comic book fans felt that giving Peter Parker access to Tony Stark’s money and gadgets made his struggles less meaningful. Traditionally, Spider-Man is a working-class hero – constantly worried about money, barely making ends meet, and still dedicated to fighting crime. Tobey Maguire’s portrayal really captured that essence, something Holland’s version hasn’t fully explored due to the financial support of a Stark inheritance.

Nintendo, famous for family-friendly games like Mario, surprised everyone when it released Splatoon for the Wii U on May 28th. While PlayStation and Xbox were known for competitive shooting games, Nintendo hadn’t really entered that arena before. What made Splatoon truly special was how different it was – it traded in realistic guns and gritty themes for bright colors, unique style, and incredibly clever multiplayer gameplay. Now, eleven years later, the Splatoon series is still popular and is evolving again with the upcoming Splatoon Raiders.
Homelander is incredibly powerful – even other superheroes fear his strength and violent tendencies. He can destroy planes, fly faster than the speed of sound, survive a nuclear blast, and use his heat vision to effortlessly cut through groups of people. In his prime, he was the biggest danger his world had ever known. Still, even Homelander’s power pales in comparison to the most powerful and evil villains in the DC and Marvel universes.
