This week, Sony trademarked the name “Break In” in the US and Europe. While we don’t know exactly what it is yet, the filing indicates it’s video game software, confirming it’s a new game coming from PlayStation. Because the trademark appeared so close to Sony’s planned June 2026 State of Play presentation, it’s likely we’ll see more details about the game during that stream.
Developer Sunsoft and publisher Gravity Games Arise are releasing a remake of a classic SNES game called Hashire Hebereke: EX on September 3rd. The original Hashire Hebereke never officially came to North America or Europe, meaning most Western Nintendo fans are likely unaware of it. To play the original, you would have needed to import a Japanese copy of the game and be able to read Japanese, making it a rare and obscure title. As a result, very few Nintendo fans in the West even knew the game existed.
Netflix is hoping to recapture the magic of Stranger Things with its new series, The Boroughs, created by Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews. Instead of focusing on kids solving a mystery, this 8-episode show centers on a group of seniors in their 60s and 70s who become entangled in a strange and unsettling secret within their seemingly idyllic retirement community. The series features deaths, monsters, and a complex conspiracy, clearly drawing inspiration from the same Steven Spielberg and Stephen King influences that made Stranger Things a hit – the Duffer Brothers are even involved as executive producers. It’s a strong show – I gave it 4 stars in my review – and critics agree, with a 92% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
The trademark filing doesn’t offer many details, but it falls under the same category as video game software – both downloadable and recorded versions. This, along with the title, suggests it could be a new branding for Haven Studios’ game, Fairgame$. The name “Break In” fits the game’s heist theme, and since Fairgame$ was initially planned for PC and PlayStation 5, the mention of “computer game software” in the filing further supports this idea.
Xbox Live first launched in 2002 with the original Xbox, and since then, it has always required a paid subscription to play games online with others. This continued with Xbox 360 as Xbox Live Gold. More recently, in 2019, online multiplayer access was included with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
In a recent statement, executive producer Fernando Melo expressed the team’s gratitude for the enthusiastic response to the game from players worldwide. He shared that it’s been amazing to see so many people exploring the new world during Early Access, and that player feedback is crucial to the ongoing development of Subnautica 2. They look forward to continuing to build the game alongside the community.
There was talk that The Adventures of Cliff Booth would be released in the summer, similar to its previous film. However, audiences will now get a dose of Tarantino and Fincher during the holiday season. Netflix has confirmed the movie will play exclusively in IMAX theaters for two weeks starting November 25th (the day before Thanksgiving), then it will begin streaming on December 23rd. This was originally the plan for Greta Gerwig’s Chronicles of Narnia reboot, but Netflix has since decided to give that film a wider theatrical release in early 2027.
Around the late 1990s and early 2000s, as the new Star Wars movies were coming out, a lot of different Star Wars games were released for home consoles. While not all were well-received, this period of renewed interest in Star Wars encouraged developers to try new things. A great example is Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, a popular role-playing game that’s inspiring a new game today. One game even focused entirely on the exciting podracing scene from Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace, letting players experience that unique part of the movie on their own.
