I’ve played Guilty Gear: Strive, Tekken 8, and Street Fighter 6 against people in the states over the weekend, and I think it’s safe to say that the war for better netcode in fighting games is pretty much won at this point.

Sony has picked a release date for its live-action Until Dawn film, and it’s picked the incredibly scary month of… April! Earlier this month, Until Dawn director David F. Sandberg confirmed that filming has been finished on the upcoming Until Dawn movie, and now, as reported by Deadline, it seems that Sony’s Screen Gems has locked in a release date: April 25, 2025. That’s a little over six months away now, so you don’t...

Blizzard has released the full set of patch notes for Diablo 4 update 2.0.3, which is set to arrive tomorrow, October 17 on all platforms. This is, more or less, the first meaty patch for the game since the release of Vessel of Hatred and the start of Season 6. As a result, many of the changes fix a lot of the issues players have been having with it, bring back some missing features, and...

The first teaser trailer for Invincible season 3 is here, and it pokes plenty of fun at itself and its lengthy production schedule (oh, and there’s a release date too). Prime Video put out the first teaser trailer for Invincible season 3 yesterday, and it might look a bit familiar – not just because it’s more Invincible (duh), but because it’s riffing on the teaser trailer for season 2 that came out at...

Riot Games is going through another wave of layoffs. This has been announced by Riot Co-Founder Marc Merrill on Twitter, who announced the news through a written article on the social media platform. This statement starts by reassuring fans that League of Legends will be okay, before diving into the job cuts. “I want to share some important updates about League of Legends PC,” Merrill wrote, “We’ve made changes to our teams and how we...

The rumours are true: James Gunn’s Superman film will feature Krypto the Superdog, and the reason why is honestly quite sweet. It’s been reported previously that Krypto, Superman’s superpowered dog, would be appearing in the upcoming new DCU film, and yesterday James Gunn confirmed it himself on his personal Twitter account. As it turns out, Gunn actually pulled from his own life when it came to introducing Krypto to the big screen, explaining,...

A new teaser trailer for The Monkey, the latest film from Longlegs director Osgood Perkins, will probably put you off those awful cymbal clashing toys for good. Back in August, the first trailer for The Monkey didn’t show off all that much, just the titular monkey doing a light spot of drumming with a shot of lead actor Theo James covered in a lot of blood. Just yesterday, Neon put out another teaser trailer,...

What’s your favourite Monster Hunter monster? Depending on when you started playing the 20-year-old series, you’re probably going to have a different answer to that question. The oldest, most grizzled veterans of the series are going to have soft spots for the Khezus, the Diablos, the Fatalis. Later arrivals will reminisce fondly about the Nargacugas, the Royal Ludroths, the Mizutsune. Personally, I’m most fond of the Tetsucabra (I like frogs, OK?) To see this content...

There’s a new trailer for Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl, and that prick of a penguin is up to no good once again. Wallace and Gromit is very much a series where you go on Wikipedia and realise, “ah, this is one of those British things where they make like four episodes that are run on repeat for decades afterwards,” and by four, I almost literally mean four, as there’s been four...

Come hither ye refugees from Smash Bros and Multiversus, a new platform fighter has arrived in the Steam October Next Fest. Rivals of Aether 2 is finally playable, after years of waiting. A good platform fighter can be hard to find these days, and I’m happy to decladre here that this one is an absolute banger. You can feel the love pouring off of the game developed by Aether studios, the team which made somewhat...
