EU and national legislators are tightening their regulatory frameworks, and games sit right in their path
If you haven't noticed, Konami is back, and the once-great Japanese publisher is finding its feet again by farming its properties out to hungry younger developers all over the world. This has worked pretty well for Silent Hill, and now it's Castlevania's turn with Castlevania: Belmont's Curse. The first mainline installment in the vampire action series in over 10 years, Belmont's Curse was made by Dead Cells support studio Evil Empire. (The groundwork for this collaboration was laid with the 2023 mashup Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania.)
Mike Flanagan's new Carrie show ends with prom. Because of course it does. Ending Carrie in any other way would be sacrilegious. However, the Prime Video series makes plenty of changes to the source material, and these lead to one particularly ambiguous moment right at the height of the iconic prom scene. In a Zoom interview, Polygon asked Flanagan to clarify exactly what's happening in that sequence, and his answer reveals a fascinating idea at the heart of the entire show.
Yuji Horii, creator of the Dragon Quest franchise, used Claude to develop and release a browser-based video game in less than an hour. While it resulted in some backlash, Horii expressed how impressed he was with the tool and praised AI for significantly reducing development time and increasing efficiency.
Als je op zoek bent naar iets minder dan een tv, maar iets meer dan een monitor, biedt Philips de oplossing met de Evnia 32M2N8900P. Dit beeldschermpje van 31,5″ maakt direct indruk met zijn formaat, maar dat is ook gelijk de valkuil. Deze grote en vrij prijzige monitor is voor [...]
When the BBC put Doctor Who up for competitive tender, it brought terrible news for Whovians who had been waiting for more information about the upcoming Doctor Who Christmas special. This year, there wouldn't be one, as both showrunner Russell T. Davies and production company Bad Wolf threw in the towel to make way for new creatives to lead the series into a different era.
Rick and Mortymocked A Nightmare on Elm Streetin the series’ second episode, “Lawnmower Dog,” and the show has kept parodying horror movies ever since, most recently mashing up The Santa Clause and Prometheus in season 9’s “The Last Temptation of Jerry.” Most of these episodes focus on meta gags in the same way the show pokes fun at movies across genres from Total Recall to Freaky Friday. But one episode genuinely leaned into horror and transformed the entire series.
De Midnight Black PS5 verschijnt op 19 november in Japan voor 55.000 yen, met 825 GB opslag en Japanse taal- en accountbeperkingen.
Over the course of 218 episodes spanning 11 seasons, the landmark TV series The X-Files explored a wide array of science fiction concepts, including a few episodes that touched on the idea of time travel. There was the season 4 episode “Synchrony,” where an elderly time traveler goes back to the 1990s to stop his younger self from inventing time travel.
Gisteravond laat verscheen Colorbound digitaal voor de Nintendo Switch en Switch 2. Bekijk hier de launchtrailer!
Critical Role's newest collaboration could be its most unexpected yet. The media company, famous for turning Dungeon & Dragons games into a multi-platform entertainment phenomenon, is partnering with Cover Corporation's Hololive Production, the Japan-based virtual YouTuber (VTuber) agency, for Shattered Legends, a new actual play miniseries set in the world of Exandria, launching in mid-November 2026.

If that sounds like the premise of Game of Thrones, well, that's because it is. But it's also the set-up for Prime Video's thrilling new action drama from one of the 21st-century's most successful showrunners.
Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse, the first mainline installment in over a decade, stabs this hypothetical through the heart, proving that Castlevania still has a lot more to give. By combining throwback appeal with razor-sharp gameplay built on the brilliant Dead Cells, Evil Empire’s latest lives up to Castlevania’s legendary status. From its bold use of color that makes the gothic visuals pop, to a new card-based Arcana system, Belmont’s Curse breathes new life into these games while honing in on what makes this series special.
Gears of War: E-Day is een geslaagde terugkeer van één van de belangrijkste franchises van Xbox | 1337 Games
We heten je van harte welkom bij een nieuwe aflevering van de Peepshow. De rubriek waarin Boris en JJ de zakelijke kant van de industrie bekijken, analyseren en, daar waar nodig, bekritiseren. In deze aflevering hebben de twee het over de tegenvallende verkoopcijfers van Gears of War E-Day. Naast de 1.7 miljoen mensen die de game op Game Pass hebben gespeeld, zijn er volgens Alinea Analitycs een kleine 300 stuks verkocht. dat zijn 37 miljoen aan inkomsten… voor een game die naar verluidt 300 miljoen heeft gekost. Dat is een probleem?
In the internet era, plenty of movies have gotten a sort of secondary fame by virtue of what you might call clip culture. One scene, or one joke, or even just one frame can go viral, independently of the movie that it's in. Everyone's seen that GIF of Chow Yun-fat giving a thumbs-up, but only a relative handful of people know it's from A Better Tomorrow II. There's a lot going on in Tobe Hooper's Lifeforce, but most horror fans only know of it because of Mathilda May's nudist vampire.
Two decades later, this spectacle from Battlestar Galactica season 3’s “Exodus, Part 2” remains unforgettable sci-fi TV. It’s dazzling and horrifying, and still one of the coolest things ever broadcast on science-fiction television. From a tactical standpoint, the “Adama Maneuver” is absolutely bonkers and one of the riskiest spaceship tactics, perhaps ever (sorry, Vice-Admiral Holdo). What if the ship had gotten torn apart from ripping through the atmosphere? What if the FTL drive malfunctioned or didn’t activate in time?
Back in the 1980s and 1990s, nothing in the comic strip section of the newspaper was quite as dark as The Far Side. InPeanuts, Lucy van Pelt pulling the football away from Charlie Brown as he was about to kick it is about as dark as things got. In Garfield, the lazy cat’s darkest running gag also revolved around a kick — when he’d kick Odie the dog off a table.
Spooky movie season is officially here, and horror fans have plenty of fresh nightmares to choose from. Obsession has been making waves, a new adaptation of Stephen King's Carrie is drawing attention, and another Resident Evil movie is bringing more video game-inspired scares to the screen.
John Cena has carved out an unexpectedly varied career as a leading man, bouncing between raunchy comedies, superhero blockbusters, and the occasional offbeat family adventure. He’s played a hard-partying dad in The Vacation Friends, joined the plastic-fantastic world of Barbie as a mermaid, and suited up as the unhinged Peacemaker in The Suicide Squad before taking that character to HBO.
Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave classes work a bit differently than you might be used to if you played Three Houses. They come in several tiers, similar to Three Houses, but some of the intermediate classes only unlock if you meet certain conditions. Master-rank classes are locked behind completing certain quests in Act 3, and the final class tier is hidden away in shrines you can only access very late in the game.
Once upon a time, Sony was one of gaming’s most eclectic publishers. That might be hard to imagine considering that it is hyper-focused on a specific brand of cinematic storytelling these days, but platforms like the PlayStation Portable were once home to a bevy of inventive first-party games that were hard to replicate. There’s no better example of that than Patapon, a unique rhythm action series about marching eyeball critters. It was a one-of-a-kind idea, the type of special game you’d be hard-pressed to find from a major publisher in 2026.
Epic Games has delayed an unannounced game that would cross over Marvel and Star Wars characters in a shooter, according to Bloomberg. The Fortnite and Unreal Engine maker is now reportedly pushing the game's developers to use generative AI tools, like Anthropic's Claude, to complete development. The crossover shooter game was previously slated for March 2027, but is now without a new release date.
If you’re of a certain age, there’s a good chance you were traumatized by the young adult survival novelHatchet after being forced to read it in elementary school. You were probably particularly disturbed by the part when the main character, Brian, found a dead body partially consumed by fish. Then you spent the rest of your childhood thinking about what you’d do if you were trapped in the wilderness.
Barbie and Little Women director Greta Gerwig is tackling C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia saga for Netflix, with a 2027 release on streaming and in IMAX theaters. On Monday, Netflix released a new look at Gerwig's Narnia: The Magician's Nephew in the form of a striking poster. The better news is that fantasy fans will get an honest-to-goodness sneak peek at the movie on Tuesday, when the first trailer for Narnia: The Magician's Nephew is slated to drop.
Videogamemuziek zal volgende maand gewaardeerd worden bij NPO Klassiek en NPO Start. Dit met een speciale top 50.
With Avatar: Seven Havens, franchise architects Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko and showrunners Sehaj Sethi and Ethan Spaulding have fundamentally upended what audiences expect from the world of bending. Streaming now on Paramount Plus, the series drops viewers into a post-apocalyptic era set more than 200 years after The Legend of Korra, in which humanity no longer exists as a unified Four Nations.
De Year 1-planning van Marvel Tōkon ligt vast: Phoenix Cyclops verschijnt op 2 november, gevolgd door Thor, Venom en Jubilee in 2027.
Epic Games has delayed its upcoming Disney collaboration - a shooter featuring characters from the Marvel and Star Wars

Before Robert Pattinson adorned the bat ears and cape in Matt Reeves' The Batman, Ben Affleck was the caped crusader. He was supposed to direct, produce, co-write, and star in his own solo Batman movie before he ultimately stepped away, leading to Pattinson and Reeves starting the "Epic Crime Saga." As such, Affleck only starred in the role in 2016's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and 2017's Justice League. (He also had a bit part in 2023's The Flash).
Square Enix has found a lot of success in recent years revisiting the 1990s in a variety of ways, whether it’s the HD-2D remake 1994’s Live A Live back in 2022 or this year’s diorama-inspired 3D remake, Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined. The company’s first offering in this vein for 2027 is a remake of a SNES game known for its non-linear storytelling, multiple protagonists, and unusual minigames — Romancing SaGa 3: Destinies United.
Yuji Horii, the creator of Dragon Quest, says he has produced a new game using AI in about 30 minutes.
Before the Pokémon 30th Anniversary collection took over the trading card game world, the hottest set on the market was undoubtedly Ascended Heroes. Finding Ascended Heroes cards has historically been much harder than sourcing other sets, 30th included, thanks to its age. The set is an old one, and recent Pokémon products typically make up the bulk of new distribution shipments. There are two notable exceptions to this trend lately, but Pokémon fans need memberships and patience to take advantage of it.
De Coalitie heeft uitgelegd dat de serverproblemen met Gears of War: E-Day werden veroorzaakt door een DDoS-aanval, die leidde tot onderbroken verbindingen, inlogproblemen en wijdverspreide serverstoringen. Gears of War: E-Day, dat vorige week volledig is uitgebracht, is de nieuwste telg in de geliefde serie van The Coalition en neemt ons mee terug naar de begindagen
Nintendo has no plans to move away from physical games.
Een nieuwe dag en dat betekent helaas ook een nieuwe lek. Cyberleek heeft namelijk weer iets geplaatst van GTA 6 en dit keer is het hoofdpersonage Lucia die zich letterlijk bloot geeft.
The "Wires Crossed" quest inArc Raiders wants you to obtain three specific Arc parts, then go to three different maps and attach said parts to antennas. While the game tells you everything you need — which parts and where to go — it's still a tricky quest to complete, because those parts are by no means easy to find, and the prompts to interact with at each location are also somewhat hidden.
Just in time for He-Man’s birthday, Clear River Games revealed the release date for He-Man and the Masters of the Universe: Dragon Pearl of Destruction, anupcoming action game based on this long-running series. Thankfully, the wait for Prince Adam and his buddies won't be long.
Nintendo stelt zijn fans gerust door te stellen dat zij fysieke media zullen blijven ondersteunen en dat er geen plannen zijn om daarvan af te komen.
The "Someone Else's Shoes" quest in Arc Raiders will have you running around Stella Montis searching for androids on Celeste's behalf, as you try to find out more about something called Project Pathos. Stella Montis is infamously one of the most difficult maps in Arc Raiders though, so unless you know exactly where to go, this quest can be a severe pain in the backside.
The wait for Metaphor: ReFantazio on Nintendo Switch 2 just got a little easier. A demo for Atlus' 2024 fantasy RPG has begun popping up on some regional eShops, allowing players to dive in. The full game is set to be released on Switch 2 on Nov. 12, just over two years after its initial release on all other major platforms.
Before Doctor Who’s second-season finale debuted on May 31, 2025, a leak about Billie Piper's return as Rose Tyler surfaced online. It spread like wildfire on media platforms like TikTok and YouTube, with content creators eagerly discussing and dissecting everything they could about the leaks, regardless of whether they took the information with a pinch of salt or not.
Nvidia has reportedly stopped manufacturing the GeForce RTX 5090, including the D variants made for the Chinese market.
For a while, it seemed like Take-Two and Rockstar Games were facing a doomsday scenario that could have seen a playable build of Grand Theft Auto 6leakedto the public a month before its official release. Cyberleek, the leaker behind the scheme, was encouraging people to invest at least $30 million into a meme cryptocurrency in order to earn GTA 6's apparent development build. To reach that number, the leaker tied early investment milestones to footage of GTA 6 co-protagonist, Lucia Caminos, fully nude.
Welkom bij Gamekings Daily. De gaming vodcast waarin twee presentatoren van Gamekings discussiëren over de laatste ontwikkelingen in de wereld die videogames heet. Vandaag is het maandag en schuift, premiere o premiere, niemand minder dan Steven aan. Samen met JJ neemt hij het belangrijkste nieuws van de afgelopen dagen door. En ja, daar zit GTA 6 bij. Hacker Cyberleek heeft namelijk aangekondigd dat hij de hele game van GTA 6 online zet als er niet aan zijn eisen worden voldaan.
Matt Dinniman’s Dungeon Crawler Carl TV show will begin shooting next year. Here’s the latest on production, Princess Donut, and the search for Carl.

Everybody is abuzz with excitement as the long-awaited release of Grand Theft Auto 6 gets closer. Rockstar's latest returns the franchise to Vice City, the game's Miami-inspired setting. But there's another crime-ridden version of Miami to get excited about beyond GTA 6. On Monday, Universal Pictures showed the first look at its upcoming Miami Vice reboot, giving us a peak at Michael B. Jordan and Austin Butler in the period crime drama.
The "Celeste's Teenage Rebellion" quest in Arc Raiderscomes immediately after the "Celeste's Childhood Drawings" quest, which entails hunting for artworks Celeste made when she was younger across Riven Tides. This quest is on the same map, but this time, you're doing more to thwart the Arc threat. You need to find a lookout tower, raider camp, then a large antenna, and it'll take you all across the coastal town.
From Resident Evil Requiem to Resident Evil remakes landing on Nintendo Switch 2 this month, it's been a good year to be a fan of Capcom's classic horror series. The franchise also saw its latest film reboot hit the big screen, and, in a first for the franchise, director Zach Cregger'sResident Evil is an honest-to-goodness great movie.
Earlier this year, Backrooms proved that online horror stories can lead to big success at the box office. The viral creepypasta about liminal spaces was adapted into a film by YouTuber Kane Parsons for $10 million, and the movie made over $400 million by the end of its run in theaters. In other words, you can count on seeing many more internet scary stories on the big screen in the near future.
While the game console business has seen better days, Steam seems to keep booming. SteamDB shows that Valve’s digital storefronthit a new concurrent player record on Sunday, with more than 43.5 million users. Of those, over 14 million were in-game at the same time, which was also a record. This marks the second time the platform has surpassed its own peak this year, after previously hitting 42 million concurrents in January.
As 2026 gets into its home stretch, I’ve found myself reflecting on all the games I’ve enjoyed so far this year. One game in particular has held up as a genuine best-of-the-year, despite releasing in April and summarily getting followed by a months-long stretch of instant classics. Yes, I’m talking about Vampire Crawlers: The Turbo Wildcard From Vampire Survivors.
Roger Jr. verschijnt op 12 november in early access voor Tekken 8 en is vanaf 17 november beschikbaar voor iedereen. Ook Yujiro Hanma komt eraan.
We finally know exactly when we will be able to watch every episode of Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 3. Disney revealed the official release schedule for the third season of its Rick Riordan adaptation at New York Comic Con this weekend, and it comes with a major shake-up.
Stardew Valley fans have been waiting a while for the next game from developer Eric Barone, who also goes by ConcernedApe. In an August blog post about Haunted Chocolatier, he apologized for the length of development while also saying he "[doesn't] stress too much about how long it’s taking" because he doesn't want to rush the process and, in turn, hurt the game.
It seems Nintendo won’t replicate Sony’s controversial pivot to an all-digital future anytime soon. In an interview with YouTuber Coelho no Japão, Bill van Zyll, VP and general manager for Nintendo in Latin America, confirmed that the company will continue supporting physical media for the foreseeable future.
Just over a year ago, Amazon MGM and Square Enix announced that a TV seriesbased on the first Life Is Strange game had been greenlit. We have gotten a handful of casting announcements and updates in the months since, while a release window remains elusive. Now it has been revealed that the adaptation has reached a major milestone: filming has wrapped.
You can see yourself in a good ghost story, or at least part of yourself. It might be a hidden part that you fear, a reflection you don't want to see, or even a noble trait that proves to be your undoing. That recognizable element of humanity is what separates the classics like M.R. James' stories or Shirley Jackson's more macabre tales from the likes of Stephen King. The House in Fata Morgana sits resolutely in the former category and ranks among the top eschelon of ghost literature.
The "Empathetic Prototypes" quest in Arc Raiders is one that is proving to be incredibly difficult for players following the "Frozen Trail" update, because while there are two ways of completing it, you either need a rare key, or some serious acrobatic skills to make it work. This quest is all about searching for some android friends for Lance, and it all must be completed in one round on Spaceport.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 komt officieel op 23 oktober uit, maar vanaf aankomende vrijdag mogen spelers met een digitale pre-order al aan de slag met de campaignmode. Daar komt het volgende bovenop: digitale pre-orders krijgen al vanaf 20 oktober toegang tot de DMZ-mode.
Dwarf Fortress creator Tarn Adams on bloated AI code, vampire computers, and surviving on Steam
Valor Mortis, a first-person Soulslike action RPG developed by One More Level (the studio behind the Ghostrunner games), takes place in an alternate version of the Napoleonic Wars. You play as William Dowsett, a resurrected British soldier in Napoleon's Grande Armée. Yes, British, not French — but before we declare him a dirty traitor, remember that Napoleon may have won the Battle of Waterloo in Valor Mortis' version of events, perhaps uniting the Western European forces afterward.
Het weekend zit er weer op en dat betekent dat we ons kunnen opmaken voor een nieuwe werkweek. Gelukkig beginnen we die, zoals je van Gamekings gewend bent, met een verse editie van Brievenmaandag. Dit keer schuiven Boris, JJ en, daar is hij dan, Steven aan achter de desk om jullie vragen, stellingen en hersenspinsels uitgebreid onder handen te nemen. En zoals altijd lopen de onderwerpen flink uiteen. Zo vraagt iemand of het eigenlijk nog wel mogelijk is dat GTA 6 tegenvalt.
Het eerste jaar van Marvel’s Tokon Fighting Souls introduceert verschillende personages. Zo wisten we al dat Phoenix Cyclops naar de game komt, maar daar wordt ook Jubilee, Thor (Jane Foster) en Venom aan toegevoegd. In een trailer zien we het viertal kort in actie en dat zij onderdeel maken van de Year 1 Pass van
AI sportweddenschappen krijgen in New York grenzen: voorstellen beperken personalisatie en vragen menselijk contact. Definitieve regels ontbreken nog.
We live in a world where a junky-but-fun-looking movie with a big star attached can come out of nowhere on streaming, with little marketing, and completely dominate the viewing habits of half the globe for a weekend or two. A few weeks ago, it happened with The Whisper Man, starring Robert De Niro. This week, it's the turn of Ben Affleck with Animals, an L.A.-set crime thriller also featuring Kerry Washington, Gillian Anderson, and Stephan Yeun.
Yuji Horii maakte Interrogation Room Komiya naar eigen zeggen in dertig minuten met generatieve AI, maar de claim is niet onafhankelijk gemeten.

KPop Demon Hunters may be most beloved by children, but we're confident that it's bewitched plenty of adults too. Hell, who isn't excited about a future where KPop Demon Hunters 2 hits the silver screen?
The series has become enormously popular, in large part because of its best-selling audiobooks performed by Jeff Hays. But fans often choose not to listen to Dinniman's lengthy books at the speed at which Hays performed them. On Reddit, Facebook, TikTok, and other online places where DCC fans congregate, listening speed is a hot topic, with some bragging about listening to the book at double its normal speed and beyond, while many wonder what’s wrong with the few people who listen to it at its standard 1.0 speed.
Warning reportedly states “Take-Two gets one way out: physical disks and a public apology”
Nintendo houdt fysieke games voorlopig aan, terwijl Sony volgens berichtgeving vanaf januari 2028 nieuwe PlayStation-games digitaal uitbrengt.
At New York Comic Con 2026 this past weekend, Josh Brolin was on the ground to promote his new movie Whalefall. Directed by Brian Duffield and based on a novel by Daniel Kraus, Whalefall is the story of a scuba diver (Resident Evil's Austin Abrams) who gets swallowed whole by a sperm whale. Josh Brolin plays the diver's father, whose remains the diver was searching for when he was swallowed.

When Mike Flanagan set out to adapt Stephen King's classic 1970 novella into an eight-episode series set in 2026, the first thing he did was go to King himself.
Invader - De Britse filmacademie BAFTA steunt via haar Prince William-beurs en studiebeurzen dit jaar 112 creatieven in het Verenigd Koninkrijk en Noord-Amerika. Ook enkele gamemakers krijgen geld. Het bericht BAFTA verdeelt ruim 270.000 pond onder 112 beginnende makers uit games, film en tv verscheen eerst op Invader.
Tom Cruise has built a career playing men who find themselves in increasingly dangerous situations, whether by choice or by sheer bad luck. From dangling off a skyscraper in Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol to running for his life in War of the Worlds to navigating the increasingly bizarre events of Eyes Wide Shut, Cruise is always at his best when the stakes are high and the people around him can’t be trusted. His latest, Digger, is another reminder that there’s rarely a dull moment when Cruise is in the lead.

Sometimes, when you finally watch some great, important, landmark film for the very first time, the experience of actually sitting down to absorb it doesn’t quite live up to all the hype. Maybe you can appreciate its place in cinema history or whatever, but that doesn’t mean it’s actually all that entertaining (I kind of felt this way about Charlie Chaplin’s City Lights). With the disadvantage of time and the advancement of modern pacing and filmmaking techniques, some classics just don’t hold up.
However, some games get stuck in what is referred to in the industry as "development hell." Over the years, some of these have eventually been released, such as Duke Nukem Forever, Metroid Dread, and Skull & Bones. Others get canceled when the studio heads or publisher decides it's not worth the investment for the end product anymore. Meanwhile, some remain stuck in that cycle. Here are five games that have been in development for more than 10 years and still haven't been released (though some are, finally, near on the horizon).
Steven Spielberg has spent more than five decades making movies, and his filmography is packed with classics that have become part of the cultural fabric. Jaws, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Jurassic Park, and Schindler's List are just a handful of the films that helped establish Spielberg as one of the most influential directors in Hollywood history.
If the recent re-release of The Witcher 3 gave you some Cyberpunk 2077 blues, at least know there are plenty of alternatives. Its developer, CD Projekt Red, did not invent dystopian neon, and there are many titles out there that either show up in full cyberpunk gear or have a similar feel – including these eight games like Cyberpunk 2077. Some are closer to Night City than others. All are full of bad systems, worse people, and reasons to keep playing anyway.
There’s no shortage of gems in the Wii library, and they didn’t all come from Nintendo itself. Thinking back on some of the games that people missed at the time, it’s easy to argue that Nintendo should add Wii to Switch Online sometime soon, if only so we have another chance to play classic games like the 12 on this list.
Stardew Valley never really tells you when you’re done — which is both a blessing and a curse. While there’s always another season to prep for and another shed to build, at some point, even the most dedicated players might need a reason to check back in on Pelican Town. So let’s say your farm’s paid off, every villager’s at 10 hearts, and your Community Center’s stuffed to the brim: How do you bring back the same sense of wonder to a new Stardew Valley run when you already know which crops turn a profit and which villagers to date?
Mutiny and The Beekeeper star Jason Statham has an impressive filmography despite starting his acting career in his 30s. In his younger years, Jason Statham had a passion for sports, namely diving and swimming, and that is when he was chosen to work for a sports-modeling agency — all while selling jewelry on the street, like his father did.
It's a wonder that Ralph Bakshi's name isn't better-known than it is, because we're living in the future he created.
Shadow of War: Definitive Edition verscheen tegelijk met zijn voorganger op de Switch 2 en blijft een uitstekende ervaring.
Despite premiering almost three decades ago, Buffy the Vampire Slayerstill endures. This beloved supernatural show didn’t just lay the foundation for a strong, well-rounded female lead in Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar). Buffy also subverted established horror tropes and consistently mastered the “monster-of-the-week” format in a way few shows could in the late '90s. Stigma and stereotypes were broken all the time. Buffy never treated femininity and world-altering strength as mutually exclusive.
If you've been playing Control Resonant nonstop since it launched, there's a good chance you're nearing the end. That's always a bittersweet feeling in a game by developer Remedy Entertainment, because it comes with the knowledge that you won't get to play something like it for a while. Love it or hate it, Control Resonant is a wholly unique action RPG that's hard to follow.

Conversely, De Niro’s turn as the detached Louis Gara in Jackie Brown (1997) sparks divisive reactions, while his more recent outings, such as Righteous Kill (2008) and Dirty Grandpa (2016), are considered objective career lows.
Disney is officially bringing the action-adventure fantasy franchise Artemis Fowl to Disney Plus with a new animated series, creator and author Eoin Colfer announced Sunday at New York Comic Con. The new animated series based on Colfer's "Die Hard with fairies" franchise has been greenlit for Disney Channel and Disney Plus, and will "dig deeper into the characters and lore of the beloved book series," according to Disney.
Lees in onze review of de Nintendo Switch 2 Edition van Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age - Definitive Edition de moeite waard is.
In The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask, you’ll spend roughly half the game wearing a dead man’s face. The game doesn’t sugarcoat this. Every single transformation scene comes with a shriek, a lurch, and Link suddenly having to figure out how to work with a body that belonged to someone else until very recently.
But in Flanagan's latest, a modern reimagining of the Stephen King classic, Carrie, Sloyan rolls those various elements up into perhaps her greatest role yet: Margaret White (aka Carrie's mom).
Fox Grove is een kaartspel uit de “Family & Friends” reeks van de Duitse uitgever Queen Games. Het spel bevat 52 kaarten met de waarde 1-13 in vier kleuren.

Less than a day after the movie's New York Comic Con panel, a second Godzilla Minus Zero trailer was released. Like the previous trailer, it suggests that Godzilla isn't the only monster threat that humans will have to contend with in this highly anticipated sequel.
Late last month, Xbox announced that development of the next game set in the Halo universe would be handed off to Activision. Then, earlier this week, a leak shared by Rebs Gaming indicated that Activision is considering a hard reboot that would double as Master Chief’s origin story.
De consoleverkopen in de VS lopen zo hard terug dat de markt zich in de meest precaire positie ‘sinds de jaren 80’ bevindt.
Arc System Works and Sony Interactive Entertainment have unveiled the rest of the Year 1 DLC characters for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls at EVO France. The first one to arrive after Phoenix Cyclops is a surprising pick. Instead of adding Thor Odinson to the tag fighter's roster, the developers chose Jane Foster's Thor.
It's been several weeks now since Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weavewas released for Nintendo Switch 2, and fans around the world are still exploring this massive game. While you could easily sink hundreds of hours into playing through every Flame Lord's story, you may be wondering what to play after your adventures in Dagda are through. Worry not: we've compiled a list of our games like Fortune's Weave to keep your strategic skills sharp while you wait for Intelligent Systems to reveal their DLC plans.
Dec. 18 is one of the most anticipated days of the year for Marvel fans, as it is when Avengers: Doomsday finally premieres in theaters. Some moviegoers will be eligible to receive an exclusive Doctor Doom Magic: The Gathering card during their screening, but they must meet specific conditions.
Cyberleek, the notorious Grand Theft Auto 6 leaker who has spent the last couple of months postingunauthorized gameplay online, is now threatening to release the game's development build. There's a catch: the leaker says he'll only provide a playable build of the game if viewers raise Cyberleek's meme coin market cap to an incredible $30 million. To reach that number, Cyberleek is tempting GTA 6 fans with videos of Lucia Caminos, the game's co-protagonist, fully nude.
Cyberleek returned last week with a wave of new Grand Theft Auto 6 leaks, and is now making their biggest leak threat yet. Cyberleek claims it will leak a finished build of the game if Rockstar doesn't meet their conditions.

We kunnen komend jaar heel wat nieuwe content verwachten voor Sonic Racing Crossworlds! En dat begint in november al.
Het GTA 6-lek krijgt een crypto-eis: Cyberleek dreigt een speelbare build te verspreiden, maar een volledige versie is niet bevestigd.
Throughout our time enjoying the many different actual-play Dungeons & Dragons shows over the years, one has always stood out: Critical Role. Whether it's because of the cast of professional voice actors or their seamless chemistry, D&D fans have adored Critical Role for over a decade.
Both games have been received with acclaim by critics, especially the innovative Galactic Racer. Their releases have been well-timed to stand out for consideration at The Game Awards in December, too. But Star Wars has a checkered history at TGA — and gaming awards in general. And while Zero Company and Galactic Racer are better placed for success at the awards than almost any other Star Wars games of the last two decades, they might still struggle for recognition.
Stephen King has never hidden his contempt for movie adaptations of his books that he felt failed to live up to the source material. His reasons range from thinking they are exploitative and crude (as he did with Ralph S. Singleton’s Graveyard Shift), to feeling they ignore the original novel’s themes (Paul Michael Glaser’s The Running Man).

Seventeen thousand, eight hundred and ninety-seven. That’s how many Peanutscomics Charles Schulz created over the 50 years that he wrote and drew his beloved comic strip. Peanuts debuted on Oct. 2, 1950, began publishing Sunday strips on Jan. 6, 1952, and concluded its legendary run on Feb. 13, 2000. That’s a heck of a lot of comics, which makes determining the very best one — which I attempted to do here — a rather daunting task.
BlazBlue Central Fiction komt naar PS5 met rollback-netcode, cross-play met pc, vier nieuwe talen en training, maar een releasedatum ontbreekt nog.

Invader - De anonieme lekker die sinds augustus beelden van Grand Theft Auto 6 online zet, belooft nu een speelbare versie met het volledige verhaal. Voorwaarde is dat zijn eigen cryptomunt een marktwaarde van 30 miljoen bereikt. Het bericht Lekker Cyberleek dreigt complete GTA 6-build te verspreiden en koppelt dat aan memecoin verscheen eerst op Invader.

In Nerd Culture #279 schuift speciale gast Shelly aan bij Koos en Huey voor een aflevering waarin Tom Cruise centraal staat. Zijn nieuwste film Digger, geregisseerd door Alejandro G. Iñárritu, is ondanks het gigantische budget genadeloos geflopt aan de box office. Maar is de film daadwerkelijk zo slecht als de cijfers doen vermoeden?
KPop Demon Hunters debuted on Netflix in June 2025, and in short order, everyone lost their minds. The movie received hundreds of millions of views and even made its way into theaters, a very rare feat for a Netflix Original that started out on the streaming platform. The phenomenon was so big and so unexpected that retail companies are still scrambling to capitalize on it with merchandise like Lego sets and video games.
What, exactly, is the measure of greatness when it comes to comic strips? The daily newspaper comic is a very limiting art form, with only a few panels — sometimes just one panel — to make a joke. Because of its brevity, it's easy to trivialize the medium as simply the “funny papers,” a daily, disposable art form designed to pick you up after reading the actual news.
Xbox-studio voor films, tv en attracties geopend. Cyberpunk 2077 krijgt een verfilming. | 1337 Games
Wingard's latest also came with an intriguing caveat that may have been a turnoff for casual theatergoers: Onslaught exists in a shared universe with his previous indie horror flick, The Guest.
If you’re a fan of everything George R.R. Martin wrote related to Game of Thrones, you’ll know the iconic fantasy series doesn’t pull its punches when it comes to phenomenal quotes. You have the iconic words of House Stark, “Winter is coming,” as well as the unnerving and brutal “Power is power” from Cersei Lannister. No matter which Game of Thrones character is your favorite, they'll eventually say something poetic.
8 games waaronder Yakuza: Like a Dragon en Silent Hill 2 gaan in oktober 2026 uit PlayStation Plus Extra en Premium. | 1337 Games
Xander’s status as the quintessential “comic relief” has often been tainted with a sense of “nice guy” entitlement and instances of flippant misogyny. Compared to Willow (Alyson Hannigan) or Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), who are brilliant examples of dynamic character growth, Xander’s arc feels relatively stagnant. There’s an inconsistency in his emotional maturity, while the writing has often allowed him to shirk accountability in a meaningful way.
At New York Comic Con, Prime Video premiered a new trailer for Blade Runner 2099, which will come out next month. The new trailer offers up a deeper look at one of the show's central mysteries and the relationship between Hunter Schafer's Cora and Michelle Yeoh's Olwen.
Horror fans are currently in the midst of Spooky Season, but there are plenty of slasher scares still on tap for the winter. That includes the highly anticipated sequel to 2024's In A Violent Nature, the inventive microbudget slasher movie that puts a twist on the supernatural serial killer formula.
Some of my favorite movies are about ordinary dudes who turn out to be a nightmare for anyone dumb enough to cross them. Pierre Morel’s Taken twisted Liam Neeson into the patron saint of revenge. Then came John Wick with an angry Keanu Reeves to perfect that very specific formula. More recently, Nobody proved there’s still plenty of mileage left in watching a highly dangerous man decide retirement isn't for him, especially when you add a bit of levity to it.
Naruto had a big presence at New York Comic Con this year, confirming several new projects coming next year or so. These projects kick off a roadmap called Project Rasengan that runs through 2029 and includes a new crossover anime with Ninku, a new manga by series creator Masashi Kishimoto, and more.
It's been more than five years since Warner Bros. and Adam Wingard (Godzilla vs. Kong, The Guest) announced plans to make a live-action film adaptation of the '80s classic cartoon ThunderCats but there's been little to show for it. Wingard's passion project has taken a back seat to blockbuster fare such as Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire and A24 action-thriller Onslaught (which is now streaming), but the director gave Polygon a (mostly) positive update on his ThunderCats project this summer.
The grim darkness of the far future is ripe with horrors, so who is better than a legendary horror director to be attached to the upcoming Warhammer 40,000 Prime Video live-action adaptation starring Henry Cavill? That's why Warhammer creator Games Workshop has tapped United Artists and Mike Flanagan — whose new adaptation of Stephen King's Carrie is topping streaming charts — to helm the project.
Shadow of Mordor: Game of the Year Edition is als verrassing verschenen op de Switch 2 en hij bevalt nog uitstekend.
At New York Comic Con, Paramount hosted a panel celebrating Star Trek's 60th anniversary. Before the panel moved on to a hilarious conversation between Ben Stiller and William Shatner, some of the cast and crew of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy came on stage to tease the second (and final) season and reveal when we can watch it.
Prison of Husks verschijnt op 27 januari 2027 voor PS5 en pc. De schilderachtige soulslike staat al op de wishlist in de PS Store.
Bandai Namco heeft laten weten dat er één miljoen exemplaren van Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve over de (digitale) toonbank zijn gevlogen.
“Cyberleek”, de lekker van diverse video’s en details van GTA 6, dreigt nu een speelbare build van de game te lekken.
Wie is dit keer de imposter?
In some cases, like The Lawnmower Man (1992), the adaptation has little to no connection to King’s original story — and isn’t well-made, either. Then there’s Andy Muschietti’s Itmovies, which have plenty of merits and even make some improvements, despite their flaws. By streamlining King’s stories, expanding certain characters, or making audacious departures from the books, they improve upon his work in unexpected ways. Here are 10 Stephen King movies that are better than the books they adapted.
Netflix really seems to have a thing for notorious criminals. In September, the streamer brought viewers Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story, the latest installment in Ryan Murphy’s serial-killer anthology, while now it has turned its attention to one of America’s most infamous domestic terrorists.
GameCube games have been available on Nintendo’s Switch Online service for well over a year at this point (at least for those who subscribe to the Expansion Pack add-on). But despite the GameCube’s robust catalogue of terrific games, the Switch Online offerings remain slim.
Disney has raised ticket prices at both Disneyland and Disney World parks. Not all ticket types have been affected by these changes, however. There are still options that allow fans to visit the theme parks for a more affordable price.
The second season of the Black Clover anime premiered on October 3, and in the week since its release, it has set a record on the anime streaming service Crunchyroll. As it stands, the first episode of Black Clover Season 2 is the most-liked anime premiere of 2026.
Some television episodes eventually become bigger than the shows they’re a part of. “The City on the Edge of Forever” isn't quite bigger than Star Trek, but nearly 60 years after it first aired, it remains one of the franchise's most celebrated hours.
Trick question: How many Final Fantasy games are there? Sure, Square Enix has made plenty of sequels and spinoffs over the years in addition to the mainline 16 games. But you might not realize there’s been more than 100 Final Fantasy games since the series got its start on the NES back in 1987. Even if you’re a series superfan, odds are you haven’t played most Final Fantasy games.
We’re well over a year into Nintendo’s Switch 2 era, and the hits keep on coming. Games like Donkey Kong Bananza, Pokémon Pokopia, and Splatoon Raiders have helped to reinvent Nintendo’s most reliable franchises, while games like Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave have only increased the quality bar for stalwart ones. The extent to which things have changed may not be apparent yet, but they’ll be crystal clear once Switch 2 gets its all-but inevitable next Super Smash Bros. game.
De Ghost of Yōtei patch 2.07 verhelpt voortgangsblokkades, zwarte schermen en crashes in Most Wanted en Echoes of Sekigahara op PS5.
After a failed attempt, Amazon MGM Studios is once again developing a Stargate series. According to Variety, the company is bringing on Jac Schaeffer, the showrunner of one of Disney Plus's most successful shows, WandaVision.
The Korra series finale — as later seen in high-definition under normal connection speeds — is still one of my favorite endings (and favorite TV shows) of all time. But it’s hard to ignore the flaws; from a slashed budget that forced the animators to rely on still images for some pivotal scenes instead of fluid animation, to a planned kiss between Korra and Asami that studio executives rejected in favor of some charged hand-holding, the finale leaves a lot to be desired.
Video game soundtracks are pretty respectable these days. Earlier this year, I watched James Bond composer David Arnold take the stage at the BAFTA Games Awards and pay tribute to the medium before presenting an award to Toma Otowa for the Ghost of Yōtei soundtrack. After a sustained campaign for recognition by a PR friend of mine, UK classical music radio station Classic FM now frequently plays video game scores. It's small wonder, really;

The Great Pumpkin himself would agree
The eighth installment in the Paranormal Activity series is set to release on May 21, 2027, 20 years after the original and six years after the last film in the franchise. Details about the plot are still unknown, but we learned at New York Comic Con that the movie will take fans back to Katie and Micah's house from the first movie.
Playing The One Ring in a game of Magic feels a lot like slipping Sauron’s evil piece of jewelry onto your finger. It promises tremendous power, but the more you rely on it, the more rapidly it destroys you. That combination of protection and escalating card advantage has also made it one of Magic’s strongest cards across multiple formats. That’s why it got banned in Modern and Historic and was even flagged as a Game Changer in Commander.
De Switch-versie van Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed kon nog wel een extra likje verf gebruiken, die de Switch 2-versie wel voldoende biedt.
Director Brad Bird has spent nearly his entire career begging American moviegoers to understand: Not all animated movies are for kids. "It is NOT a genre," he said in 2004, repeating himself, "it is an art form that can do ANY genre." And for almost as long as he's been dreaming of a Hollywood that catches up to Japan, France, and the rest of the world's appreciation for animated art, he's been working on Ray Gunn, a retrofuturist murder mystery he scripted before directing his debut feature, 1999's The Iron Giant.
De Switch 2-upgrade van It Takes Two verschijnt op 15 oktober 2026 met GameShare, cross-play, snellere laadtijden en betere prestaties.
Ask a game developer, or even a dedicated player, about the biggest challenges of the video game industry and you’re sure to hear one word: “discoverability.” With so many new games releasing every day, it’s harder than ever to break through and get your game seen.
Despite growing up as both a cinephile and a sci-fi nerd, I somehow never caught the Star Wars bug. Sure, I got swept up in the cultural moment of The Phantom Menace like any other kid at the time, but I had no desire whatsoever to see Attack of the Clones just three years later. For me, Star Wars has been little more than a pretty fun trilogy of blockbusters set in an impressively large universe that I just don’t understand.
Begin 2027 verschijnt dan toch de laatste DLC voor Dave the Diver. Hierin duikt Dave eindelijk de wereld an Subnautica in!
Bungie's bestselling military science fiction FPS, Halo, has spawned an impressive amount of content over the years since Halo: Combat Evolved was released for the Xbox in 2001. Debuting alongside Halo was the franchise's first tie-in novel, The Fall of the Reach, by Eric Nylund. Since then, there have been more than 30 novels written by a host of authors set in the wildly popular Halo universe.
Atlus’s Persona series of role-playing games incorporates a huge variety of mythological and folkloric creatures from around the world. Some are formidable warriors like Odin from Norse mythology or the Hindu goddess Lakshmi. Others are cute and charming, like Alice from Alice in Wonderland or the spooky snowman Jack Frost. They function kind of like Pokémon: your protagonist can equip a variety of Personas with different skills, strengths, and weaknesses. But there’s one Persona that’s not like the others.

Avatar: Seven Havensis a far more mystery-driven series than its predecessors, The Legend of Korraand Avatar: The Last Airbender.Avatar Korra supposedly caused a cataclysm that destroyed most of the world, but it’s unclear why she would do that and how the new Avatar might be able to fix things. The first episode of Seven Havens premiered on Oct. 9, and the writers may have already provided some big hints about what’s going on.
Invader - De makers van Overcooked werken aan Stage Fright, een puzzelavontuur voor twee spelers. Hello Games, bekend van No Man's Sky, brengt het spel uit op Steam en Nintendo Switch. Het bericht Overcooked-studio Ghost Town Games mikt met Stage Fright begin 2027 op samenwerking verscheen eerst op Invader.
Subjective taste inevitably plays a role here. A contemplative series like Mushi-shi and a sprawling space opera like Legend of the Galactic Heroes offer radically different versions of great storytelling. For this list, we’re focusing on anime that combine distinctive animation with narrative ambition, embrace complicated characters, and avoid wasting their limited time. These five anime prove that when every episode matters, even a short series can feel monumental.
In some cases, a sci-fi movie adaptation can be spectacular, and still feel like a pale imitation of the source material. This has less to do with the quality of the adaptation itself, and more with the nuances that can only be conveyed through the literary medium. Sci-fi stories get streamlined and condensed onscreen for valid reasons, but the original still shines brighter in some respects. Here are five such examples where you're better off going straight to the source material than watching the movie it inspired.

Pokémon Go is having a Zorua Community Day event on Saturday, Oct. 10 from 2-5 p.m. in your local time. This Community Day only features the original Unovan Zorua, not the normal- and ghost-type Hisuian Zorua.
The Exorcist: Martyrs was promising from the get-go, with horror master Mike Flanagan taking the helm as writer and director, accompanied by a star-studded cast. On Wednesday, we got a first look at Flanagan's The Exorcist: Martyrs with a short teaser. Now, the first full trailer for the supernatural thriller movie is officially out, and it promises a good time for fans of the original as well as those jumping into the franchise for the first time.
Every starter in a new Pokémon generation erects an army of staunch defenders, but like it or not, some monsters are loved more than others. And for a couple of decades now, it seems like fire-type starters and grass-type starters keep taking turns stealing the spotlight. But when was the last time a water-type starter turned the collective Pokémon fandom's head?
Magic: The Gatheringplayers have repeatedly complained that Universes Beyond sets feel too far removed from the game’s fantasy genre and original storytelling. Wizards of the Coast revealed a clever compromise at New York Comic Con: a set based on an original story in the Marvel Universe that was specifically written to fit Magic’s mechanics and vibe.
The Adult Swim series was also a redemption of sorts for co-creator Joe Bennett, after his previous project, Scavengers Reign, was canceled by HBO Max, offloaded to Netflix, and then shelved again. So it comes as a relief that Bennett's Common Side Effects, which he co-created with Steve Hely (Veep), is getting a second season.
Calvin and Hobbes took a different approach. What set Calvin apart from most of his funny-pages peers, with the exceptions of Huey and Riley Freeman, was that school might've been the most uncomplicated villain in C&H canon. At best, Calvin spent his school time wrestling with boredom; at worst, he felt like academia as an institution was actively out to get him, and would occasionally fantasize about its destruction.
Some of the most-discussed multiplayer shooter of 2026 share a lot in common. In both Arc Raiders and Marathon, you and up to two other players venture from a safe hub into hostile areas, shoot a bunch of enemies, grab a bunch of loot, and return back to safety. These games are built around a loop meant to draw players back repeatedly, and have become bona fide hits as a result. But these shooters owe a great debt to one maligned 2021 loot-shooter: Outriders.
Ed. note: This story was originally published in March. We're republishing it today in celebration of Spooky Season.
More GTA 6 leaks are spilling out, despite Rockstar's best efforts, and one of the bigger ones seems to be Jason's penis. Well, I haven't seen the video as it's been taken down, so I don't know how big that particular leak is. But the context around it all has me more than a little disappointed, if these reports are indeed representative of what will be in the full release. Sure, Jason and his partner-in-crime (and sometimes life) Lucia are hot.
Steven Spielberg has spent much of his career looking to the stars. From the wonder of Close Encounters of the Third Kind to the childhood adventure of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, few filmmakers have done more to shape the way Hollywood approaches stories about humanity making contact with something beyond our world. Even War of the Worlds, though it was an adaptation, offered a glimpse into Spielberg's fascination with extraterrestrial life.
Where to play: Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has never been more unpredictable. After a handful of duds, including The Marvels, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, and Captain America: Brave New World, Marvel Studios is rethinking how it rolls out new movies and TV shows. While Marvel is riding high on the success of billion-dollar movies like Deadpool & Wolverine and Spider-Man: Brand New Day, it's slowed its release pace considerably in recent years.
Happy weekend! There’s something for everyone at the movies this week, from Jessica Chastain’s horror comeback, Other Mommy, to Aaron Sorkin’s The Social Reckoning.
Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave's deadline for getting new characters on your side might loom ominously on the horizon, but the game is more flexible than it lets on. There are a few points of no return, but only one of them is irreversible: the one at the start of Act 3. The game doesn't outright tell you that there's no going back, though it does ask you to be quite sure you want to proceed before moving on. There's a good reason for that. The second deadline is inflexible, and there's no going back afterward.
