James Tynion IV has proven his ability to build successful shared universes, most notably with the ‘Slaughterverse,’ which began with the comic book series Something Is Killing the Children. This world features real monsters and skilled hunters like Erica Slaughter, who work for a hidden organization called the Order of St. George. The story’s popularity led to a deal with Blumhouse Productions to create both a live-action movie and an animated show, with Tynion IV closely involved in the adaptation process. He’s staying on as a lead writer to make sure the show captures the same intense atmosphere and careful storytelling as the original comic. However, the Slaughterverse is just one of several universes Tynion has created that could potentially become a high-quality television series.

It’s common for games to be announced months, or even just days, before they come out. However, Tokyo Scramble was revealed during a Nintendo Direct only a week before its release as a Switch 2 exclusive. The game focuses on trying to escape from creatures resembling dinosaurs, called zinos. While fans are still hoping for a remake of Dino Crisis, Tokyo Scramble might be the closest experience they can get for now. Initial reviews have been mixed, but the game does attempt something new by utilizing the Switch 2’s GameShare feature, which could either help it stand out or hold it back compared to other survival games.
