Many people have noticed that Starfield isn’t currently available on Nintendo Switch. While rumors suggested it might arrive on PS5 on April 7th, a reliable source on ResetEra, shinobi602, says a Switch version has been delayed indefinitely and may never be released.
He responded to a comment on ResetEra about a potential release this summer, saying “Not that far (at least for now).” While not a definite confirmation, a July or August release seems likely. This is because Microsoft, like most game companies, probably wants to avoid releasing their game at the same time as Grand Theft Auto 6 in November. Of course, this depends on whether the game experiences any unexpected delays, which is difficult to predict at this stage.
Since it first came out in 2012, Legendary: A Marvel Deck Building Game has been a top-selling and beloved Marvel game, consistently adding new characters and improvements. For years, players have been anticipating a major update, and Upper Deck has now announced Legendary: A Marvel Deck Building Game Second Edition. The good news is it’s scheduled to release later this year.
Season 3 is covering a lot of ground – 130 chapters of the original manga will be adapted into only 25 episodes, making for a quick pace. Fortunately, the animation quality in this season is excellent, and the studio is doing a great job with the adaptation. Episode 5 of Part 2 received a lot of positive feedback, especially for its impressive animation. A scene featuring the character Maki was particularly praised for its expressive character work. However, the animator who worked on that scene, Dorian Coulan, had to apologize to fans for an error.
Tim Burton is set to direct a new version of the classic sci-fi film Attack of the 50-Foot Woman, with Margot Robbie starring. The film is already generating buzz thanks to the talented team behind it – the script is being written by Danya Jimenez and Hannah McMechan, known for Kpop Demon Hunters. If the movie is a success, it could be a major achievement for Burton, placing him among a select group of directors with significant box office earnings.
With so many people watching the Super Bowl, it’s become a prime opportunity for movie studios to release new trailers. This strategy has proven successful for major franchises like Mission Impossible, Lilo & Stitch, and How to Train Your Dragon. Building on that success, we can expect some exciting trailers to be revealed during Super Bowl LVIII. Here’s a list of all the trailers from this year’s game.
Jez Corden from Windows Central has talked to sources who say the new system-on-a-chip (SoC) is codenamed “Magnus.” It seems some people familiar with the project were surprised by AMD’s CEO, Lisa Su, mentioning it publicly. This is because, beyond comments from Microsoft’s Phil Spencer about new hardware and Sarah Bond describing a “very premium” console, there haven’t been any details about when it might actually come out.
Sadly, that’s not what’s happening. When asked on Bluesky if the sequel would be delayed, Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier confirmed it would be. He also indicated that the entire studio at Guerrilla Games is now working on fixing the issues, meaning it will be their main priority for the foreseeable future.
NateTheHate, a well-known source of gaming information, addressed a user on Twitter about the rumors, saying he’d heard them too, but other reliable sources have told him they’re likely untrue. He doesn’t completely dismiss the possibility, but doesn’t think there’s much substance to the claims.
