Twenty months ago, I became head of XGS with a clear goal: to support our game studios, teams, and the people who create our games. We aimed to release excellent games, build a stronger, more positive work environment, and position the company for future success. I’m pleased with what we’ve achieved, including several successful game launches that have benefited the business, according to an email I sent to staff.
So, there was some chatter about Chris Evans maybe hinting at returning as Captain America in Doomsday, but that didn’t quite add up considering filming wrapped on that movie back in September 2025 and this news popped up much later. However, with Avengers: Secret Wars supposedly starting to film this summer, his recent comment about beginning work on his next Marvel project “in a couple of months” now makes way more sense! I’ve seen the full video floating around everywhere on X – it’s definitely worth checking out if you want to see what he said.
Season 3 of House of the Dragon arrives after a two-year wait, following a lot of online discussion about the show. The creators have stayed true to their original plan, with both successes and some missteps along the way. When looking at these first four episodes, there are two key questions. First, is it any good? The answer is yes – the acting is strong, the characters are compelling, and it’s visually impressive. Second, will this season address the criticism the show received? That’s more complex. While some changes will likely please viewers, other creative decisions might still be controversial.
Despite recent challenges, the future looks promising for He-Man and the characters of Eternia. We can anticipate more Masters of the Universe TV series, video games, and potentially even a sequel. Let’s take a look at how the movie performed at the box office and what that means for these upcoming projects.
Sarada, as a member of the Uchiha clan, is often involved in intense fights. After gaining the powerful Mangekyo Sharingan, with its unique warping ability, she’s become one of the strongest characters in the series. However, she struggled to control this power during a recent battle, which negatively affected her eyesight, as shown in chapter 34 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex. Despite the risks, she remains committed to helping Boruto, and the latest preview suggests she may begin training to better manage her abilities – a logical next step for her character.
While we haven’t seen much of the unique gameplay in 1666: Amsterdam yet, its core elements seem inspired by other successful games. The currently available prologue doesn’t offer enough hands-on experience to know how players will interact with the game’s blood magic and witch rituals showcased in trailers. It’s still unclear if the game will focus primarily on narrative, similar to Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice, or feature more intricate gameplay systems.
IDW has a lot of exciting Godzilla content planned for the next few months! The giant monster continues his journey across the US in Godzilla Vs. America: New York, and he’s putting his own spin on a classic story in Godzilla’s Monsterpiece Theatre Presents: The Kaiju of Oz. The main Godzilla series returns with a new first issue (#13) that’s perfect for new readers. We’ve got previews of all these titles, plus a look at other great Godzilla comics, including the highly anticipated The Horror of Godzilla #1. Get ready – it’s Godzilla’s time to shine, so keep reading to find out more!
Being willing to risk everything for others is essential for any superhero, but certain heroes make truly extraordinary sacrifices. They’ve given up a great deal in their dedication to saving the world, and these acts of selflessness are central to their identities. Here are seven Marvel heroes who exemplify sacrifice, constantly putting themselves on the line to protect others.
A lightsaber used by Luke Skywalker in The Empire Strikes Back is being auctioned off by Heritage Auctions. This prop, detailed in J.W. Rinzler’s book about the making of the film, is considered the most important lightsaber design in Star Wars history – it served as the model for all those that followed. The lot even includes a resin hand designed to be ‘cut off’ by the saber during scenes! Mark Hamill operated a hidden mechanism during filming; when he pressed a trigger, the hand and lightsaber would separate on screen, creating the effect entirely through practical filmmaking techniques – no digital effects were used.
The latest update introduces a new Pal that transforms into a sword, along with impressively designed bosses offering a real challenge even for powerful players. While we wish there was more information about the Serpent Pal shown in the clouds, it seems Pocketpair is deliberately holding back details as the update release date approaches. We’re eager to see how the story ends and what happens to the game world afterward.
