I generally believe most villains have the potential to change for the better—with a few exceptions, like Darkseid. It’s just annoying when a villain tries to become good, then falls back into their old habits. That’s why I was so surprised by the latest issue of Titans. It initially felt like DC was revisiting an old storyline with a familiar enemy. However, the newest issue suggests that one of the team’s biggest betrayers might genuinely be on the path to redemption.

The trailer has some noticeable visual glitches, such as Ariane briefly floating mid-air during a scene. However, the developers at DON’T NOD have acknowledged this, emphasizing that the game is still under development.

DC Comics is teaming up with Sonic the Hedgehog for a new five-issue comic series called DC x Sonic the Hedgehog: Metal Legion.

The role queue system launched in 2019 and significantly enhanced the game experience. Before, players often worried about unbalanced teams formed randomly. Role queue fixed this by guaranteeing two tanks, two healers, and two damage-dealing heroes on each team. While it limited team composition options, it eliminated frustrating situations where teams had too many damage heroes and not enough support. This ensured at least a basic level of balance, even without team coordination.

The first issue of Neighborhood Watch arrives in stores on April 8th, bringing together Hugo Award-winning writer Sarah Gailey (Know Your Station, Eat the Rich) and artist John Haining (Absolute Flash) in a gripping mystery. The story explores how well we truly know the people around us. John Haining will provide the main cover art, with variant covers by artists Suspiria Vilchez, Jenny Frison, and Tula Lotay.

Basic Fun!, the owner of Arcade1Up, announced on February 14, 2026, that they’re releasing a new series of home arcade cabinets, and one of them will feature the iconic Sonic the Hedgehog. This is exciting news for both Sonic and Arcade1Up enthusiasts! Until now, there hasn’t been a dedicated arcade cabinet in North America focused on classic Sonic games. While Sonic has appeared in arcade games, especially in Japan like SegaSonic the Hedgehog, and through related titles, this will be the first of its kind. It’s also a positive sign for Arcade1Up fans, demonstrating the brand continues to deliver quality products.

Released in 2013, 42 was an early film for Chadwick Boseman and his first time leading a movie. The film tells the story of Jackie Robinson, the groundbreaking baseball player who broke the color barrier in Major League Baseball. While it was a success when it came out, it’s become somewhat overlooked. However, many consider it one of Boseman’s best performances, and it’s worth watching before it leaves HBO Max at the end of the month.

These new movies and shows don’t add an extra cost to your Netflix subscription – you’re already paying for them. The main difference is that they aren’t prominently featured; you’ll likely have to search to find them on the platform, unlike other content that’s easier to discover.

This week, Nintendo released an updated version of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition for the Switch. The game first came out on Wii U in 2015 and received a remastered version for Switch last year. While it was playable on the new Switch console through backwards compatibility, it didn’t fully utilize the upgraded hardware. Now, that’s been fixed, giving players the experience they’ve been waiting for.

Fans are shocked and disappointed that the studio hasn’t released any games since being bought in 2021.
