However, it did give us a now-famous phrase we still use to describe unexpected or unnecessary sequels.
It’s common now to see updated versions of classic games, and Amazon Games recently announced a new, major Tomb Raider title at the 2025 Game Awards, along with a remastered version of the very first game in the series. Remasters are often profitable, and while they require effort and investment, they’re easier to create than entirely new games because developers start with an existing foundation.

For many years, Shonen Jump has been the leading source of high-quality anime series.
