A few weeks ago, Twisters made its debut in cinemas, and the sequel to the iconic 1996 disaster movie has had a robust start at the box office. Audience reactions have been positive, with the film currently holding a “Certified Fresh” rating of 76% from critics and an impressive 92% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. Charlie Ridgely of ComicBook gave it a 4 out of 5, describing it as “an amazing throwback to our beloved blockbusters.” A notable aspect of the film’s release has been its success in 4DX theaters. The movie thrived in this immersive format and will soon be back on screens alongside the original Twister.

Today, Cubicle 7 unveiled plans to create a fresh version of the tabletop roleplaying game, “Talisman Adventures,” inspired by the popular board game of the same name, owned by Games Workshop. At this time, they haven’t shared any specifics about the new RPG’s mechanics or release date. The last edition of the game was published by Pegasus Spiele in 2021, but no additional content for that version has been released since late 2022 (according to Pegasus Spiele’s website).

At this point, it remains a mystery as to who these actors will be playing.

As an ardent follower of gaming news, I’ve got some not-so-great but still important information about the release date for Avowed. The buzz around town was right; it seems we’ll have to wait a bit longer, with the official confirmation pointing towards a shift into early 2025.

Last month, whispers about a collaboration between Square Enix and Tencent on a mobile adaptation of their blockbuster MMORPG, Final Fantasy 14, were swirling around. Now, it seems like those rumors are becoming increasingly solid, with more proof piling up to cement the deal, all without an official word yet from either party. As a gamer, I can hardly contain my excitement!
