Things are getting absolutely wild in One Piece! Right when Luffy and the crew start figuring out what’s happening, the story dives deep into the past, finally showing us what really happened with King Harald and Rocks D. Xebec. We’re also getting a ton of backstory on Loki, and honestly, it’s making everything click! Now, with Loki’s powers and motives finally being explained, the series has just introduced what looks like the strongest pair of fighters we’ll see in this final saga – I’m so hyped to see what happens next!

Mill Alibeth, a Zabrak Jedi trained by Anakin Skywalker, has a remarkable story of survival after the devastating Order 66. Alongside fellow Jedi survivor Vivert Stag, she became a bounty hunter during the time of the sequel trilogy, and they even tried to find Rey. But before that, they clashed with a different powerful Force user: Darth Maul. Their early adventures in the criminal underworld are explored in the novel Star Wars Outlaws: Low Red Moon.

Xbox Game Pass recently hinted that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will be added to its game library. They shared a playful “email” containing the word “Deliverance’d” as a clear signal. This is almost certainly referring to KCD2, which came out just over a year ago and received excellent reviews, even earning Game of the Year nominations at events like The Game Awards. Adding Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 to Game Pass would be a significant boost for the service.

We didn’t see much gameplay of Silent Hill: Townfall, but what we did see suggests it’s different from other recent Silent Hill projects. Unlike the Silent Hill 2 Remake (2024) or Silent Hill f, Townfall appears to be played from a first-person perspective. Similar to games like Alien: Isolation, players will likely use a device for listening while also being able to fight enemies with weapons or close combat.

I was so excited when Grant Morrison started working on Doom Patrol! After their amazing run on Animal Man, DC gave them another Silver Age character that hadn’t quite taken off, and it was brilliant. Morrison didn’t try to fix the Doom Patrol, they just leaned into how wonderfully strange the team already was, and it totally worked. Their run is now considered one of the best comics ever made, and it completely revitalized the series for me and so many others.

The rise of computer-generated imagery in film happened at a time of big cultural changes, as people adjusted to the internet and debated the ethics of new biotech. It’s no surprise that 1990s science fiction often reflected these anxieties, portraying a world on the edge of the new millennium where being watched digitally and changes to our genes felt like threats to who we are. These films tapped into a specific feeling of worry and uncertainty that really captured the spirit of the decade.

In contrast, Buffy the Vampire Slayer introduced Faith Lehane as a dark reflection of Buffy herself. The Season 3 episode “Consequences” really explored this idea, asking what would happen if a Slayer turned evil. This followed an episode where Faith unintentionally killed someone – the Deputy Mayor, of all people. “Consequences” focuses on the fallout from that event, and introduces a surprising twist: Faith doesn’t just commit the act, she actually accepts and embraces it.

BadRobo82, a dedicated creator in the Dreams community known for beautiful designs, recently shared a video that’s getting a lot of attention. They built a Crash Bandicoot level so realistic, it’s hard to tell it apart from an official game level.

Several people have pointed out that this installment could be the largest Resident Evil game yet, and that’s before we even know how big the Steam version will be. Currently, Resident Evil 4 Remake holds the record at 67 GB, with Resident Evil 2 Remake coming in second at 48 GB.

Okay, so I heard Saga Frontier Remastered is getting pulled from PS Plus Extra and Premium soon, and I’ve been meaning to try it. Apparently, if you really rush through the main story, you can beat it in about 13-15 hours. That’s a tight squeeze, but doable if you’re dedicated! If you want to see everything, though, expect to spend around 30 hours. Honestly, finishing it before it’s gone is probably a bit much for most of us. But, the smart move is to jump in now, give it a shot, and if you’re hooked, you can always buy it for $24.99 later. That way, you get a taste and decide if it’s worth owning!
