Keep reading for a complete guide to everything coming to Disney+ in May!
These five films are all highly recommended. They’re a promising sign that 2026 will be an excellent year for cinema, especially considering we’ve only seen a small portion of the year so far.
According to new data from Alinea Analytics, the game sold approximately 140,000 units worldwide during its first full week after launch, which is considered a relatively low number.
Jundroo announced the change directly, setting the record straight and avoiding rumors or guesses. They explained the decision was made because the release of s&box was scheduled for April 28th, which could mean both games would be competing for the same players at the same time.
I was really excited to see what was revealed at the recent Dragon Ball Games Battle Hour 2026 event! They announced a remake, and the team explained why they decided to do it. We even got a trailer, which showed they’re not just covering the ‘Battle of Gods’ arc – the one where Goku first fights Beerus – but also continuing into the ‘Resurrection of Frieza’ arc. That means we’ll get to see the incredible fight between Goku and Golden Frieza again! It was great to hear Masako Nozawa, who voices Goku, express how enthusiastic she is about this big remake project.
The first two Harry Potter books, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, don’t pay much attention to dates and days of the week. For example, Dudley Dursley’s birthday trip to the zoo is said to happen on a Saturday, but June 23, 1991, was actually a Sunday. Similarly, Harry’s birthday, July 31st, is described as falling on a Tuesday, when it was really a Wednesday that year. The third book, Prisoner of Azkaban, makes this issue worse by adding time travel, which puts even more emphasis on dates. One strange example is Buckbeak’s hearing, which is stated to be on April 20th, but careful reading suggests it happened no later than February. J.K. Rowling improved the consistency of dates in Goblet of Fire, making its timeline much more accurate, although this introduced new, different kinds of errors.
After skipping the big Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con last year – only showcasing Peacemaker Season 2 – Marvel Studios is planning a major return this year. TheWrap reports that Marvel will have a significant presence at the convention, both on the show floor and with a panel in Hall H on Saturday, July 25th. They’ll also be at D23 in August. This has fans wondering if the full trailer for Avengers: Doomsday will finally be revealed in July.
So, Ubisoft is actually remaking Assassin’s Creed Black Flag! They’re calling it Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced. I was super excited when I first heard about it, but honestly, they haven’t shown us much yet – just a little teaser art. I’m really hoping they drop some gameplay details soon!
On April 20th, 2026, the classic Atari 2600 game Pitfall! celebrated its 44th anniversary. It’s one of the best-selling games for the console, with over 4 million copies sold. It ranks fourth in sales behind Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Donkey Kong. Pitfall! was a unique platformer for its time, pushing the limits of the Atari 2600’s technology. Remarkably, it fit a sprawling world of 255 connected screens into just 50 bytes of memory – a huge achievement for early game development.
