As a huge Batman fan, I’ve always thought Gotham City has so much potential beyond just being a backdrop for action. Sometimes, though, open-world games fall into the trap of filling it with pointless tasks just to make the game longer. But when done well, Gotham can really come alive and become a genuinely fun place to play as Batman! That’s what I’m hoping for from LEGO Batman. I’m really curious to see if it can pull it off and how it would even do that. Let’s dive in and find out!

Subnautica’s sequel isn’t just about sales; it’s about raising the stakes. Players begin expecting to journey to Zezura with Alterra, aboard the ship Cicada, but instead crash-land on the planet Proteus – a deliberate misdirection. As you try to survive, gather supplies, and understand what went wrong, you’ll discover a colossal, enigmatic tree that feels like both a landmark, a signal, and a danger.

We were pleasantly surprised by Arkham Shadow a few years back, but considering it was only for VR, the disappointing launch of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, and the long wait for another Batman game, it’s hard not to question Warner Bros.’ direction with the Batman franchise.

The Tachyon Pulse Podcast reports that San Diego Comic-Con 2026 might reveal a five-year plan for the future of Star Trek. Rumors suggest announcements including a new TV series – potentially the anticipated Star Trek United – a new movie, and another season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. These rumors gained traction following reports that Alex Kurtzman may be stepping down from his creative leadership role, and were further fueled by recent statements from William Shatner hinting at the upcoming news.

Hayden Christensen is likely to reprise his roles as Anakin Skywalker or Darth Vader in at least two future Star Wars projects, according to industry source Daniel Richtman (via SFF Gazette). He’s already played both characters for Disney and reportedly enjoyed being in the Darth Vader suit, leaving plenty of opportunities for more appearances. This is particularly promising after the popularity of Maul – Shadow Lord, the first Star Wars TV show focused on a villain.

This established studio has crafted a thoroughly enjoyable experience. By drawing on the rich history of Batman, they’ve created a campaign that feels like a collection of the best moments from the franchise, constantly offering fresh and exciting ways to engage with the world.

As usual, the sale features a huge selection of thousands of PS5 and PS4 games, so finding what you want can take some time.

Even the early, simple cutscenes included details like stage directions, describing what was happening – for example, showing the player and Carth after a battle. These scenes also contain some of the first voice acting, and surprisingly, suggest that the player character, who was never voiced in the final game, was originally planned to have full voice lines.
