The remake is currently being worked on and is expected to be released in the first half of 2027. Given the typical release schedule of recent Resident Evil games, this timing isn’t unexpected. It’s still encouraging to see multiple sources confirming the remake is actually happening.
Reddit users aren’t happy about this news, particularly because the premium add-on bundle for Forza Horizon 5 costs $49.99. When you add that to the recent price increase for Game Pass Ultimate – now $29.99 a month – it’s become significantly more expensive to play than it was in 2021.
A reliable source, known as AestheticGamer or Dusk Golem, has heard talk of potential DLC featuring the character Alyssa, but hasn’t received any recent information about it. While it’s not confirmed or a definite leak, it’s not an unlikely possibility.
During an interview at Paris Games Week, I mentioned we were choosing between two potential titles,” explained Hamaguchi to GameSpot. “Ultimately, the final decision rested with Mr. Nomura. He made his choice after the event, and we’ve officially settled on a title since then.”
Despite the hopes for a strong start, the film Mercy didn’t perform as well as expected. Variety reports it earned only $11.2 million domestically during its opening weekend. While this was enough to move it into first place at the box office, ending Avatar: Fire and Ash‘s five-week run, it’s not a particularly impressive result. This is Pratt’s lowest opening weekend as a lead actor, falling short of the $14.8 million earned by Passengers in 2016. He’s been in films with smaller opening weekends before, but those were either films where he had a smaller role or were released in fewer theaters.
Disney+ is adding The Muppet Show on February 4th as a special celebration of the franchise’s 50th anniversary. It’s the biggest new addition for February, but there are other great titles coming to the platform too. You can find a full list of what’s new below.
Take, for example, the new comic series Hulk: Smash Everything by Ryan North and Vincenzo Carratù. The series explores what it really means for the Hulk to be the strongest one there is. The villain, the Leader, tricked Hulk into going after Doctor Strange, hoping to rob Strange’s home. However, Strange managed to turn Hulk’s rage against the Leader himself. But the Leader had a plan within a plan, and sent Hulk back in time millions of years, just before a major extinction event.
Even with all the new ideas in game design, a recent game proves that a classic 30-year-old mechanic still works incredibly well. This mechanic – turn-based combat where players time their button presses – first appeared in Super Mario RPG and continues to be a hit with gamers. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, named Game of the Year in 2025, is a prime example, but it’s not the only great game using this system. No one predicted that simply pressing buttons at the right time would become so popular, but this simple addition has had a lasting impact on RPGs since Super Mario RPG.
Some films started strong in theaters, but they didn’t have lasting success. Now, they’re largely forgotten and barely noticeable within Netflix’s vast library.
It really frustrates me how these tired story ideas just keep bouncing off each other – it’s like everything’s been done before! We see the same plots, the same types of characters, and the same attempts to pull at our heartstrings, over and over. I get that people like what they know, but when everything feels recycled, it just kills creativity and turns making movies and shows into a factory process. Honestly, it feels like the industry is scared to try anything new, happily re-hashing old stories and pretending they’re groundbreaking.
