Lately, HBO’s been making a real push into fantasy – we’ve had the Game of Thrones prequel, House of the Dragon, and the His Dark Materials series, which were both good. But honestly, the best fantasy show they’re doing right now, in my opinion, is another one set in the world of Westeros: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. I actually think its first season was even stronger than House of the Dragon.
Electronic Arts will be taking the servers for Dragon Age: Inquisition and Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare offline on April 27th. Currently, this only affects players on the PlayStation 3. Other platforms aren’t affected right now, but that will likely change in the future – probably not immediately, but within the next few years.
Of all the nine Titans, the Jaw Titan has been used by the most different people. Despite being one of the smaller Titans, it had a powerful and unique skill. Four people have wielded the Jaw Titan throughout the series, and while each one was memorable, some made a bigger impact than others.
The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct is a prequel to the popular AMC television show, taking place in Georgia. It follows Merle and Daryl Dixon during the very beginning of the zombie outbreak, with the original actors, Michael Rooker and Norman Reedus, returning to play their roles. Sadly, the game didn’t receive good reviews when it came out, mainly because of its frustrating controls, weak story, and unimpressive graphics. With more time and effort, it had the potential to be great, and fans of the series would have likely enjoyed learning more about the Dixon brothers’ backstory. However, it felt rushed and ultimately didn’t live up to expectations.
We’re big fans of this sequel to Returnal! It improves on the original in fantastic ways, making the exciting gameplay easier to jump into.
For a long time, Halo and Gears of War were the games most associated with Xbox. That’s no longer the case. Now, the Forza Horizon series is Xbox’s biggest hit, both in terms of sales and critical praise. Forza Horizon 5, released in 2021, has been the most successful Xbox game of this generation, selling incredibly well and receiving high scores – a 92 on Metacritic and three awards at The Game Awards. While it’s not surprising the game has been popular on PlayStation 5, it’s remarkable that it sold over five million copies on that platform in its first year.
A fresh take on Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is coming later this year in a new comic series from BOOM! Studios. A preview has given fans their first glimpse of the series’ new villain, Rita Rabiosa. Rabiosa’s look draws inspiration from the classic Rita, with familiar features like her headdress, large collar, and magical staff. However, she has some key differences – one arm is similar to the original, while the other appears damaged and partially robotic. Her headdress also features tentacles, with one side showing signs of having been cut off.

The next installment highlights some of the series’ lesser-known but beloved characters, including the Three Princesses of the Verdigris House, Lakan, and Lahan. New artwork is released on the anime’s official website on the 22nd of each month, and this time, each image features flowers that bloom during that month. These flowers are chosen to reflect the personalities of the characters they depict. The April artwork focuses on Maomao and Joka, a princess and a caregiver who helped raise Maomao. Joka is giving Maomao a basket of pink peonies, which symbolize beauty, kindness, and gentleness – qualities that perfectly represent Joka’s personality.

It’s a stylish and intriguing trailer that leans into a classic “noir” atmosphere, while also showcasing exciting action sequences, including fights against villains like Sandman and Megawatt. We also get a good look at Brendan Gleeson as Silvermane.
