Now is a fantastic time to be a fan of the Resident Evil series. While we know a lot about upcoming releases, many have wondered what classic game Capcom will remake next. We think Resident Evil: Code Veronica is the most likely candidate, and there are several good reasons why that might happen.
PlayStation fans have become frustrated with projects being cancelled, so they’re starting to create their own versions. One such project was a multiplayer game based on The Last of Us, which was cancelled before anyone could even see it. Now, a developer called Albatross Interactive is trying to bring that idea back to life with a new game called Terminal War, inspired by The Last of Us: Factions. It’s still early, but this indie project has a lot of promising ideas that fans of the original multiplayer mode should appreciate.
As a huge fan of the Avengers, I’ve always been fascinated by what goes on behind the scenes. It’s clear they’ve held back information, not just to save the world, but sometimes to protect themselves and the people they care about. I’ve been digging, and I’ve found seven of the most closely guarded secrets the Avengers have ever kept – secrets that, if they ever came out, would cause major problems, to say the least.
John Wayne’s last movie role was in the 1976 film The Shootist, where he played a gunslinger battling cancer – a poignant foreshadowing of his own death just three years later. However, his very last contribution to a film was actually a vocal performance in Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope. What’s remarkable is that this wasn’t a deliberate acting role. Sound designer Ben Burtt later discovered that the unique buzzing voice of the character Garindan ezz Zavor came from a discarded line of Wayne’s dialogue, rescued from the studio trash and transformed using a synthesizer. Now, with the release of the new Star Wars film, The Mandalorian and Grogu, that connection to Wayne is strengthened.
As a huge fan of Octopath Traveler, I was so excited to hear that the tabletop RPG is finally getting an English release! Game Informer announced it’s happening this October, and Dark Horse is publishing it with Square Enix. It originally came out in Japan in 2022, and it’s a way to play in the world of Octopath Traveler with friends using tabletop rules. With the game getting more popular over here, it’s awesome that we’re finally getting a chance to try the TTRPG too!
In February, Shaun Escayg, the director of Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, shared a post online about doing some “research.” The post included a picture of a cannon on what looks like a fort or castle, facing the ocean.
The photo shows a historic cannon positioned on a wall, with a coastal city spread out below. It looks like a typical vacation snapshot, except for the caption Escayg added: “Research…” What is he researching? He doesn’t specify, but given how closely it matches the adventures of Nathan Drake – traveling the world, discovering ancient sites, and facing off against pirates – it’s a pretty clear hint about the game Uncharted.
PlayStation players can get a set of 10 free avatars celebrating Resident Evil’s 30th anniversary until April 30th. The avatars showcase five iconic characters – Leon Kennedy, Chris Redfield, Claire Redfield, Jill Valentine, and Ada Wong – each with two different looks. Half of the avatars are based on new artwork created for the anniversary, and the other half feature designs from the Resident Evil animated movies.
The most important award is Anime of the Year, which celebrates the best anime from the last year. Six shows are nominated, and while they’re all excellent, only one will win. Here’s a look at how likely each nominee is to take home the prize.
I’m drawn to the intriguing ideas behind many horror games, much like I am with horror movies. However, I haven’t been brave enough to actually play one all the way through. Luckily, a new game called Alien Deathstorm was just announced, and it feels like the perfect opportunity to finally dive into the horror genre. It plays on my fear of being alone and my love for sci-fi horror – it seems like a great fit!
