Crunchyroll has announced its plans for New York Comic Con 2025, taking place October 9-12. Highlights include the world premiere of the new series *Trigun Stargaze*, as well as premieres for *Fire Force Season 3 Part 2*, *Hana-Kimi*, *My Hero Academia FINAL SEASON*, and other titles. Crunchyroll is also promising some exciting announcements, and you can find a full schedule of their events below.

Playing the game in chronological order offers a simpler way to experience the story, but it does come with some pacing issues. The game warns you upfront that the flow might feel off, and that’s true. While the overall story benefits from seeing Ellie and Abby’s journeys unfold together without a break in the middle, the beginning feels slow. All the flashback scenes happen early on, one after another. In the original game, these slower moments came *after* intense action sequences, providing a change of pace. Here, you get several hours of story setup with very little action before Ellie and Abby’s main stories begin.

I just heard about this new game called *The Lift*, and it sounds really promising! It’s being published by tinyBuild, who I know from games like *Pathologic 2*, *Clustertruck*, and *Hello Neighbor*. The developers, Fantastic Signals, are a brand new indie studio, but get this – they’re made up of people who worked on *Ori and the Will of the Wisps*! So they clearly know what they’re doing, and I’m definitely keeping an eye on this one.

As of today, *The Conjuring: Last Rites* has earned $332.6 million worldwide. This already makes it more successful than other horror films like *Weapons* ($259.5 million) and *Final Destination Bloodlines* ($310.4 million). *Last Rites* is quickly gaining on *Sinners* ($366.6 million) and is poised to become the highest-grossing horror movie of 2025. With only $34 million separating the two, it’s likely *Last Rites* will soon surpass *Sinners*.

The anime adaptation of *Otherworldly Munchkin: Let’s Speedrun the Dungeon with Only 1 HP* was originally planned to start airing in October, but it’s been postponed. While there’s no new release date yet, the creators say the delay is to allow more time to improve the anime’s quality before it premieres.

Following its theatrical release, *The Fantastic Four: First Steps* will be available for purchase on digital platforms starting September 23rd, 2025. This is roughly two months after its cinema debut, mirroring the release schedule for other Marvel Cinematic Universe films in 2025, like *Captain America: Brave New World* and *Thunderbolts*. Currently, *First Steps* is also nearing a box office milestone – with a worldwide gross of $518.8 million, it’s only a few hundred thousand dollars behind the 2015 film *Ant-Man*, which earned $519.3 million, according to Box Office Mojo.

What sets *A Discovery of Witches* apart is its consistency, which is rare in today’s television. It’s frustrating to start a show you enjoy, only to have the quality decline in later seasons, but that doesn’t happen here. The first season earned a remarkable 94% audience score on *Rotten Tomatoes*, and while subsequent seasons saw a small dip, it consistently remained above 80% (nearly 90% overall). The show keeps viewers engaged from beginning to end, so you never feel like your time was wasted. It’s not perfect, but its reliability is a major strength in a TV world where consistency is often lacking.

Gaming source Nate the Hate, known for accurately leaking PlayStation news in the past, recently stated that the next State of Play broadcast will happen “next week.” While he didn’t give a specific date, this suggests it will likely be on September 23rd, 24th, or 25th, as Mondays and Fridays are usually avoided for these broadcasts.

This game lets you experience the life of a character, starting as a baby and growing into an adult. It’s a lighthearted journey through all the stages of his life.
