The developers have big plans, according to their recently released roadmap. The game is currently launching with Episode 1. Next month, Episode 2 will begin rolling out, starting with a new playable character (Warden), a new map, a new mount, and a Ranked Mode. In March, they’ll add a new base and a tool for raids, giving players even more ways to strategize.
Even though the original game was great, experiencing it for the first time was truly memorable. Now, with the sequel almost here, it’s much larger and more ambitious. However, just because it’s bigger doesn’t automatically mean it will be better.
In Highguard, players participate in “Raids” where the goal is to get the Stormbreaker and destroy the enemy team’s base. Before each match, you select from different base types, and then venture out to find improved weapons, armor, and equipment. You earn Vesper – the game’s currency – by mining, defeating opponents, and other activities, which you can then trade to Flynn for valuable rewards.

HBO’s new show set in Westeros, co-created by George R.R. Martin and Ira Parker, is based on his Tales of Dunk and Egg stories. Fans should find it more faithful to the original books than Game of Thrones. The second episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms introduces the Targaryen family – Baelor, Maekar, Valarr, and Aerion – and reveals their family crest. Importantly, the three-headed dragon on the crest has only two legs, which is how Martin always envisioned it. While the first five seasons of Game of Thrones used a two-legged dragon, House of the Dragon switched to a four-legged version. Martin expressed his dissatisfaction with this change back in 2024, stating:
Chris Pratt was already well-known as Peter Quill/Star-Lord after appearing in two Marvel films, but his role in 2018’s Avengers: Infinity War sparked controversy among fans. In the movie, a plan to defeat Thanos on Titan goes wrong when Quill learns Gamora is dead, and his reaction ultimately leads to devastating consequences – many fans believe his actions caused the loss of half the universe’s life. However, Pratt himself views the situation differently.
Robert Kirkman, co-creator of Invincible, announced the Viltrumites will be central to the upcoming Invincible VS game. In a press release, he explained that with Season 4 of the show, the Battle Beast comic, and plans for the game, 2026 will be a significant year for the Viltrumite storyline. He stated that, given their prominence in the Invincible universe, it wouldn’t make sense to exclude them from the game.

Few likely remember the 2014 Xbox 360 game Of Orcs and Men. The Styx games are much more popular, largely due to frequent sales and low prices. Styx: Blades of Greed actually connects directly to that earlier, lesser-known game, acting as a prequel that explains the origins of the war between humans and goblins. It also reveals how the Black Hand mercenary group – the one Styx was a part of in Of Orcs and Men – came to be. Because it links the older game to the newer Styx titles, Blades of Greed is a great place to start for anyone new to the series.
