From the beginning, Disney has made clear that Disney+ will be a family friendly affair with nothing above a PG-13 rating appearing on the streaming service. Apparently that rule is so concrete it got even Lin-Manuel Miranda to agree to censoring his own theatrical masterpiece, Hamilton. Despite being a musical clearly meant for all ages, in addition to displaying a dense lyrical verbosity, Miranda’s book and lyrics also drops several F-bombs....
Cavill is “bringing his lore expertise” to the mantle of executive producer, and “his sword arm” to the starring role. There’s a lot we don’t know still. There’s no mention of setting, who Cavill will play, or a timeline for releases. But still, this is hugely exciting news for Warhammer 40,000 fans, and confirmation, finally, that the hobby will make it to the big screen. ORIGINAL STORY 10am UK: It’s happening!...
Immortality, the acclaimed investigative Hollywood mystery from Her Story developer Sam Barlow, is now available on iOS and Android via Netflix. Immortality tells the story of Marissa Marcel, a (fictional) actress who filmed three movies over the course of her career - Ambrosio in 1968, Minsky in 1970, and Two of Everything in 1999 - none of which were ever released. It’s up to players to find out what happened to Marcel, which, as in Barlow’s previous games, involves slowly piecing together events by scouring through reams of FMV video....
Hideo Kojima has just finished a 10-day studio world tour taking a look at the technologies being used as some of Sony’s leading studios such as Guerrilla, Media Molecule and Quantic Dream.

Earlier today he posted the following Arthur C Clark quote on Twitter and then shared his feelings: “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic”. Source: @HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN
Hitman 3 was confirmed to be on the way back in July 2019 with the release of Danny O’Dwyer’s Noclip documentary, “The Fall & Rise of Hitman.” Since then, there haven’t been any updates regarding the next installment of the Hitman series. IO Interactive has had their hands full with updates to their current title, Hitman 2. November will see them release more live content in a single month than they ever have before....
For any Fortnite players thinking that the Star Wars shenanigans from recent weeks were over, Epic Games has more surprises, it seems. Fortnite leakers have discovered another big Star Wars-related piece of content planned for the future and it’s a skin a lot of people are going to want. It’s unclear if it will be event-related, earnable through challenges, or purchasable with V-Bucks, but Epic will hopefully make it fun. The skin is none other than a Kylo Ren outfit, complete with his helmet, robes, and cape....

Oh no, would you look at that: the streaming services are fighting! Netflix and Hulu are engaged in a full out, total war with each other. Hulu has conjured up a Stephen King-ian horror from Castle Rock to do battle against the Demogorgon. The cast of Runaways is duking it out with the cast of The Defenders. Billy Eichner is drinking Alan Arkin’s blood! The source of this war? Two documentaries about the ill-fated influencer culture fly trap Fyre Festival....
What will likely be the final Hall H panel dedicated to Game of Thrones (at least until a major anniversary down the road) had an unusual duality to it Friday evening. Announced as something of a victory lap for HBO’s once universally beloved fantasy series, tonight’s Game of Thrones San Diego Comic-Con panel doubled as both a heartfelt thank you from actors to fans, as well as an awkward confrontation between the creators of once beloved content, and some fans who have become vocally aggrieved by the final season....
The Gears of War 4 launch trailer has been released, meaning only one thing: Gears of War 4 is now three weeks from launch. The trailer is narrated by John DiMaggio, the voice of Marcus Fenix, and features a cover of Metallica’s “Nothing Else Matters,” as performed by Lissie. In Gears of War 4, 25 years have passed since Marcus Fenix and Delta Squad made Sera safe for the future generations....
The game to end all games is finally up for pre-order. That’s right, Gears POP!, the mash-up of Gears Of War and Funko POP statuettes everyone was asking for, now has a pre-order page up on iOS and the Google Play Store. The game is free-to-play with microtransactions, so we’re not exactly sure what a pre-order does. What we do know is that it is allegedly coming out soon, so you can finally stop playing Fire Emblem: Three Houses and Madden NFL 20 and be a real gamer....

Year 2 for the tactical shooter will see a bunch of new content for Wildlands’ PvE and Ghost War PvP offerings, with the French publishing powerhouse committing to four ‘major’ content drops dubbed Special Operations updates.

In Ghostwire Tokyo, Akito has a ton of different supernatural powers and abilities at his disposal to take care of the sinister Visitors that have overrun Tokyo. One of these is the Thicket Talisman, but where others deal damage to enemies, this talisman actually benefits those who are looking to avoid taking on enemies head-on and taking a sneakier option. Here’s everything you need to know about Ghostwire Tokyo’s Thicket Talismans....
Marrying pinball mechanics with metroidvania level design sounds like a recipe for disaster. They’re just too dissimilar. Whacking balls with paddles and sprawling, interconnected environments represent two sides of a game design coin. But sometimes unlikely partnerships create unexpected hits. Just look at Yoku’s Island Express. The pinball-meets-metroidvania game released earlier this year to critical praise. And if you missed it the first time around, have no fear; there’s a free demo available on Steam right now....
Goat Simulator 3 on PS5 In an industry overflowing with bombastic military shooters, glum and gloomy narrative adventures, and online-centric Games as a Service titles, there’s something refreshing about Goat Simulator 3’s unpretentiously straightforward pick-up-and-play DNA. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a big fan of those aforementioned types of games, too, but you’ve got to admit it: occasionally video games forget how fun and creative the medium can be. And Goat Simulator 3 is a timely reminder, and a celebration of that fact....
God of War and Avengers: Infinity War both draw inspiration from Norse mythology, so it’s only natural that the two worlds would collide at some point, right? Well, they have, and while we’re sadly not able to see Kratos rocking out to Star Lord’s 80s playlist, he does get his hands on something that clearly doffs its cap to the film’s resident Big Bad, Thanos. Players are able to pick up the Shattered Gauntlet of Ages, which apart from being an obvious homage to the Mad Titan’s fancy power glove actually works as a weapon....
