Games

Here are the details:

We haven’t revealed details about the new game mode yet, but we’ll be sharing them in the next few days.

The developers will announce a release date in the next few months, but they’ve already revealed the game, Samson, will cost $24.99. Because the game is made by a small, independent team without the expenses of a large company, they can offer it at a lower price.

It’s clear why Marvel wants Chris Evans to reprise his role, particularly with Robert Downey Jr. set to be the antagonist. However, the way his return is presented is interesting. The teaser shows Steve Rogers putting away his Captain America suit, and the final message confirms ‘Steve Rogers will return in Avengers: Doomsday,’ but notably doesn’t mention Captain America. This subtle distinction might seem small, but it could hint at the nature of his role in the film.

So, I’ve been checking out the demos for this game, and there are actually two different ones! The ‘Story’ demo lets you jump right into the beginning – it’s basically the prologue – and it’s available on pretty much everything: PlayStation 5, Switch 2, PlayStation 4, Switch, and PC through Steam. If you’re more into action, there’s a ‘Battle’ demo, but that one’s only on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. I’m definitely trying both!

Marvel Studios has made it a tradition to release new seasons of its animated series, What If…?, during the holidays for the past two years. The first season came out between August and October 2021, but seasons two and three both premiered episodes on back-to-back days starting December 22nd, even including Christmas Day. This made What If…? a holiday staple for many Marvel fans. However, Marvel Studios isn’t planning any more seasons, which is disappointing because the show could have been a great way to expand the story of the Multiverse Saga.

As a huge One Piece fan, I was so excited when they announced they were redoing the anime with better pacing and updated animation – it sounded like the perfect way to experience the story! But honestly, it’s been a while since the initial announcement, and we haven’t gotten much news. They shared a few cool images over a year ago, but that’s about it. It’s a little funny, considering the whole point was to fix the pacing, that we’re still waiting! Thankfully, I’m hearing rumors that we might finally get an update soon, and I’m keeping my fingers crossed!

Cross expressed immense pride in the visual design of Marathon, noting that receiving this level of support for a unique project is unusual. He praised Bungie’s art team as the best in the industry and shared his excitement to experience the game alongside other players. He concluded with a heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed to the project’s success.

Kojima explained that when people first experience Death Stranding, it can feel like a horror game. However, he emphasized that the game’s underlying system is unique. While built using a game engine, it functions in a way that’s unlike any other game, which led the team to collaborate with Microsoft to create a completely new form of entertainment.

The main focus right now is “Target,” a project Naughty Dog is working on. After the holidays, the studio plans to share its development schedule with employees, but there are worries that overtime will increase as the game gets closer to release. Considering Naughty Dog’s history of demanding work conditions, the recent increase in hours – with some employees already working an extra eight hours a week – could indicate a difficult development period ahead.
