I recently spoke with the team at Unknown World about their plans for the sequel to Subnautica. What really stood out was how they’re adding cooperative play to a game series that’s always been known for its single-player experience. While we’ll need to try the Early Access version to be sure, it seems like they’ve given a lot of thought to incorporating co-op without losing what made the original Subnautica such a compelling single-player game.

Both Forza Horizon 4 and Forza Horizon 5 place you in beautiful open-world environments – the British Lake District and sunny Mexico, respectively. You begin as an established racing star, already famous at the Horizon festival, with access to a huge collection of high-performance cars. While there’s still a sense of progression, you’ve essentially already reached the top, creating a somewhat odd feeling – a game that feels fast-paced but lacks a strong sense of purpose.

In an interview with EW, the showrunner, Chris Mundy, revealed that the series will unfold across two time periods. Part of the story takes place in 2016, where Stewart acts as a backup Green Lantern, ready to step in if anything happens to Hal. Mundy describes this as a “passing of the torch” situation, which aligns with what viewers saw in the Lanterns trailer. The other timeline is set ten years later, in 2026, and the details are currently being kept secret. Mundy hinted that this future storyline will be a major mystery for viewers to unravel.

Many comic book fans hope to work in the industry, and George Alexis has done just that.

This week, both Batman games from Telltale Games are available for free. The first, Batman: The Telltale Series, came out in 2016 and told a fresh story about Batman using Telltale’s popular episodic format. It was successful enough to warrant a sequel, Batman: The Enemy Within, which was released in 2017. The Enemy Within was one of Telltale’s final major games before the company closed, and many considered it to be even better than the original.

Fans in the KPop Demon Hunters community are excited about the upcoming world tour and eagerly awaiting details like the cities, countries, and dates. But many are most curious about one thing: who will be participating?

The enduring popularity of DOOM stems from its unique blend of classic and modern gameplay. The original DOOM, DOOM 2, and DOOM 64 emphasized fast-paced action and strategic thinking, requiring players to quickly prioritize enemies, choose the right weapons, and skillfully avoid attacks. This engaging combination of elements kept players hooked and continues to be a key factor in the series’ lasting appeal.

Ryan Coogler is personally directing the pilot episode of the new The X-Files, and he’s brought along some frequent collaborators, like cinematographer Autumn Durald Arkapaw and casting director Francine Maisler. Jennifer Yale, known for her work on The Copenhagen Test, will be the showrunner for the rest of the series, and original executive producer Chris Carter is also returning. Filming for the pilot has already started in Vancouver – the same location used for the first seasons of the original show – so we’ll soon find out who the new cast members are.
