In a week, the latest update for “Dead by Daylight” will be released, and it’s all about revamping the Mori kill system where Killers can execute a Survivor or two under certain circumstances. Behaviour Interactive has been brainstorming ideas for the Mori system for approximately a year, and this time around, they’ve found a balance that should make both Survivors and Killers happy. This update also brings adjustments to 20 different perks, with an equal distribution between Survivors and Killers, as well as changes for four specific Killers.

It appears that a new video game related to DC Comics characters might have been revealed through a recent job posting at Warner Bros. Games. Currently, two DC-themed projects are confirmed to be in development: “Batman: Arkham Shadow,” which is an upcoming VR title by Camouflaj set for release on Meta Quest 3 platforms within the next fortnight; and “Wonder Woman” from Monolith, first announced in 2021 but not yet publicly demonstrated. Now, there’s speculation about a possible third DC game in development, but specific details regarding the character or team it revolves around remain undisclosed at this time.

It appears that Stephan James is strongly being considered for the role of John Stewart, the potential new Green Lantern, in the upcoming DC Studios-HBO series “Lanterns.” According to Jeff Sneider from The InSneider, this Canadian actor who has previously starred in films like “If Beale Street Could Talk” and “21 Bridges,” is said to have undergone a screen test for the leading role. It’s also reported that Aaron Pierre (known for his work in “Krypton” and “Rebel Ridge”) is also being looked at for another significant role within the series.

In professional wrestling, CM Punk has found a new opportunity following a significant hiatus. Known as The Second City Saint, he re-entered the WWE scene in November 2023, marking the end of almost a decade away from the world’s top sports-entertainment company. His departure from WWE in January 2014 was marked by creative disagreements and physical challenges that eventually pushed him to his limit. The relationship between Punk and WWE appeared irreparably damaged, especially after he joined AEW in 2021 and occasionally criticized them during televised speeches. However, he is now back with the WWE.

As the seventh season of “My Hero Academia” nears its end, several significant shonen anime are stepping up to fill the void this fall. This week marks the debut of “Dragon Ball Daima,” featuring miniature versions of the Z-Fighters. The first episode of “Dandadan” is causing quite a stir, and the Blood War continues intensely in the comeback of “Bleach.” The third part of “Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War,” titled “The Conflict,” kicked off with its premiere episode and a new sneak peek shows that Soul Society is showing no signs of slowing down.

Despite encountering numerous setbacks and receiving minimal promotion from Sony, it’s astonishing how well Until Dawn turned out when it was released in 2015 for the PS4. The narrative drew inspiration from classic slasher movies, centering around eight friends who journeyed to Blackwood Mountain for a retreat. The cinematic style of the game was complemented by high-quality production values and impressive acting, with the fixed camera angles adding an extra layer of authenticity, reminiscent of older survival horror games.
