Behavior Interactive and PHI Studio have announced a new, immersive experience based on the world of Blade Runner, set to launch in 2027. They describe it as a visually stunning and story-driven experience that pays tribute to the original film. The experience will begin in several North American cities next year, with more details coming soon.
A rumor started on 4chan claims that Rocksteady is developing a Batman Beyond game. The post detailed that the game would be set long after Batman: Arkham Knight, featuring Terry McGinnis as Batman. However, this leak appears to be false, despite many fans wanting a game like this for years.
It’s been a while since Christopher Nolan had a film break the $1 billion mark at the box office – not since The Dark Knight Rises, actually. But it’s not that he’s lost his touch! Oppenheimer proved he can still draw huge crowds and create a cultural moment. Still, that billion-dollar milestone remained elusive. That’s why The Odyssey feels different. It’s massive in scope, packed with A-list stars, and clearly designed for the big screen – the kind of movie that demands a theatrical experience. If any Nolan film is going to get him back into that billion-dollar club, it’s this one. But there’s a significant hurdle standing in its way.
I’ve been seeing so much hype around Saros – a lot of people are already predicting it’ll be Game of the Year in 2026! So I figured it would be a huge hit right out of the gate. But it sounds like sales aren’t quite living up to expectations, which is a little worrying. It’s not a disaster yet, but combined with all the recent game cancellations, studio shutdowns, and PlayStation backing away from live service games, it does make me a bit concerned about what the future holds for their first-party games.
I’m really excited about what Dynamite Comics is doing with the new Ben 10 comic reboot! The first issue already sold out, which is fantastic. They’re doing some cool things with the characters, like a fresh take on Grandpa Max. But what really caught my eye is how they’re reimagining Zombozo! You might remember him – he was one of Ben’s earliest villains, this creepy clown who used a machine to steal people’s life force. Well, the cover for issue four shows a completely new, seriously terrifying version of him, and honestly, it looks amazing! I can’t wait to see this killer clown debut in the future issues.
I’m so excited for the return of Frank Castle! It feels like forever ago, back in 2016, when Jon Bernthal first blew us away as the Punisher in season two of Daredevil on Netflix. Now, ten years later, he’s back with a new Marvel special on Disney+, and get this – he’s going to be in Spider-Man: Brand New Day soon! It’s amazing to see Frank blasting his way back into the spotlight.
I was so excited to see reports about a new Palworld trademark! Apparently, Pocketpair trademarked “Palworld Online” in both South Korea and the US, according to Gematsu. We don’t know exactly what they’re planning yet, but the developers have talked before about wanting to build Palworld into a whole franchise, not just one game. They’re already doing that with things like Palfarm, the mobile game, and even comics! So this “Palworld Online” trademark definitely feels like a hint of even bigger things to come, and I can’t wait to find out more!
As a longtime fan of the wizarding world, I’ll admit it – I’ve always dreamed of playing a real game of Wizard’s Chess. And now, it turns out that dream is closer than ever! Thankfully, this version skips the part where the pieces try to knock you out while you play, which is a definite plus.
Nintendo entered the handheld gaming market with the Game & Watch, a unique, folding LCD device that also included a clock. Over the years, Nintendo created more than 60 different Game & Watch models, even releasing full-color versions to celebrate its 35th anniversary in 2020 and 2021. These systems sold over 43.3 million units in total, with Donkey Kong being the most popular game, selling over 8 million copies. The success of Donkey Kong was particularly important, as the arcade version helped rescue Nintendo from financial trouble in 1981 and propelled them to become a major force in the video game industry.
It’s impressive that Maul – Shadow Lord has gained so much attention. Animated Star Wars shows often don’t get as much recognition as the live-action series or movies, and this show also revisited familiar characters and stories. Its success has led to a second season being planned. Here’s a ranking of all Star Wars TV shows, including Maul – Shadow Lord, from worst to best.
