Okay, so Dunk was all confident that he and Egg could travel anywhere in the Seven Kingdoms, but Egg had to correct him – there are actually nine kingdoms! I was totally surprised, and Dunk definitely was too. Then, the opening credits flashed up with a new title: A Knight of the Nine Kingdoms. It was a funny moment, but honestly, I can’t imagine that name will last. It just doesn’t feel right, and it would be a marketing disaster! It really highlights why everyone still calls it the Seven Kingdoms – it’s the name people know and remember, and it’s stuck around for a reason.

The first episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms largely focuses on Ser Duncan the Tall and Maekar Targaryen as they grapple with their involvement in Baelor’s death. Similar to the season finales of early Game of Thrones seasons, this episode is more about resolving loose ends and hinting at future storylines than big, shocking moments, although it does include a couple of surprising reveals: Dunk wasn’t officially knighted by Ser Arlan of Pennytree, and Egg runs away with Dunk without his father knowing.

As a huge Nintendo fan, I’m really excited to see that two of the top games of 2026, according to Metacritic, are Switch exclusives! They’re called Perfect Tides: Station to Station and Paranormasight: The Mermaid’s Curse, and while they aren’t huge, AAA titles – they’re priced at just $20 and $25 – everyone seems to be loving them. Both critics and players are giving them really good scores, which is awesome!

When Goku fought Frieza, he became the first Saiyan in a very long time to reach such incredible power, and others quickly followed. Since then, the Dragon Ball series has released many sequels, side stories, and movies, with a lot of them focusing on the Saiyans and their ability to transform. While some of these transformations were amazing, others weren’t quite as impressive and ended up being a letdown.

Fans were excited when the studio posted an update about the Genshin Impact anime. However, there’s been no news about Katsugeki/Touken Ranbu Movie since its second trailer was released in December 2022. While the teaser and visuals look great, the lack of updates is worrying, especially considering this is intended to be a large-scale project, and may indicate production difficulties.

It was so painful for him to even look at his friends that he cut them all off and abandoned the world of Jujutsu. During the climactic fight between Yuka Okkotsu and Dabura Kabura, he tried to remain hidden, but was discovered. Afterward, he teamed up with Maru, hoping to build a world free from curses, a goal that would require them to commit a terrible act. Despite already suffering through decades of loneliness, Yuji still faces another three hundred years of isolation.

Authors like Brandon Sanderson, George R.R. Martin, and N.K. Jemisin have all written truly exceptional books, and we highlighted some of them in our previous article. But there are many more! Here are 10 additional books that are widely considered masterpieces of the genre.

I’m highlighting this important point because, when I discuss how good the upcoming game Witchbrook might be, I want to remember that its 10 years of development don’t necessarily reflect its current condition. However, as more details have emerged, I’ve become increasingly worried that the game won’t live up to the original promises – or even current expectations – and could end up being a real letdown.

We didn’t include characters who are only expected to make a cameo, like Deadpool, Peggy Carter, Doctor Strange, Hawkeye, and Spider-Man. Also, Harrison Ford won’t be appearing – he was originally planned to play Star-Lord, but Star-Lord isn’t in Doomsday.
