Games

I’ve been following this franchise closely, and it’s more than just the anime itself – there are video games, the Ragnarok manhwa, and even a live-action adaptation in the works. With all that going on, I really expected 2026 to be a fantastic year for fans. Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case so far. We’ve already seen some disappointing news, like the delay of the Season 3 announcement, and now Ragnarok has brought some bad news as well.

Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:

It’s unusual for most live-action movies to get a sequel, but 10DANCE might be an exception due to its huge popularity. The film stays true to the overall story and feeling of the original manga, though it does change some character details and the speed at which the story unfolds. The manga itself has seven volumes, all available digitally on Kodansha’s website. Because the film has been so successful, the manga is constantly selling out, and the author, Inoue, has shared some exciting news for fans.

Prime Video’s spy thriller The Night Manager, based on the 1993 John le Carré novel, is currently a hit. The show stars Tom Hiddleston, who won a Golden Globe for his portrayal of Jonathan Pine – a former soldier and hotel night manager recruited by MI-6 to take down a dangerous arms dealer. Originally released as a limited series in 2016, The Night Manager returned with new episodes on January 11th. According to FlixPatrol, it’s now the third most popular show on Prime Video globally, surpassing other top series like The Summer I Turned Pretty, Surely Tomorrow, and Spartacus: House of Ashur.

As a movie critic, I’ve been keeping a close eye on upcoming adaptations, and 2026 is shaping up to be a huge year for video game movies! We’re looking at seven films based on popular games, five of which will be live-action and two animated. The exciting thing is, all of these projects are drawing directly from established game worlds, so fans should have plenty to look forward to.

Despite Netflix’s tendency to cancel shows, The Dragon Prince surprisingly lasted for seven seasons. This sprawling fantasy series is set in the magical world of Xadia and expertly combines magic, mythology, and relatable characters. The story revolves around a war between Xadia and the Human Kingdoms, sparked by the creation of dark magic by a group of rebellious mages. Before this, magic came from six natural sources – the sun, moon, stars, sky, earth, and ocean. Now, these mages are stealing magical energy from Xadia, fueling an ongoing war. The key to ending the conflict lies with three unlikely companions: two princes and the elf assassin originally sent to kill them. Together, they uncover a secret that could save everyone they care about. The series feels particularly relevant today, exploring real-world issues through a fantastical lens.

CM Punk recounted a moment from John Cena’s final match where he unexpectedly asked someone to bring Jon Bernthal to him. Punk explained he wanted to personally tell Bernthal how much he admired his portrayal of the Punisher. “I rarely do this,” Punk said, “but I saw Jon Bernthal in the front row and had someone get him so I could tell him he was amazing.”

The popular game Epic Mickey is now available for PlayStation Plus subscribers! This isn’t the original 2010 version, but Epic Mickey: Rebrushed, a 2024 remake.
