Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead has just released that blog post telling everyone where the studio’s at in terms of current progress on its 60-day plan. Good news, the next big update to the game is set to arrive on September 17.If you’re out of the loop, since the Escalation of Freedom update was accompanied by some balancing changes and tweaks to flamethrowers that didn’t go down well with a lot of players, who felt Arrowhead wasn’t aiming to make the game fit their definition of fun via its nerfs to meta weapons, the studio’s been attempting to get a lot of these unhappy soldiers back on side.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings As detailed in the blog post, the next big update to the game – which the likes of Arrowhead CCO Johan Pilestedt ha…

Either you didn’t know a live-action Ben 10 film was happening, or forgot it was, but any which way it doesn’t matter, because it’s been canned, seemingly.Ah, Ben 10. You were a fine enough show that mostly survived on the strength of fun alien designs and the 10-year-old-boy power fantasy of being able to turn into a whole universe’s worth of aliens, but you’ve mostly been forgotten about since the 2016 reboot series. There are still plenty of fans of the original series around, but unfortunately for them, it seems like the series is staying asleep for a while longer. Back in 2011, it was reported that Lethal Weapon, Die Hard, and The Matrix producer Joel Silver would be handling a fully fledged, silver screen live-action film adaptation on the animated series, but 13 years later and it’s…

Big news from China, as eagle-eyed HoYoverse/MiYoHo fans have spotted a new WeChat account registered by the company that might just point to an incoming game announcement from the gacha giant. This new game, the much-rumoured Stardev Valley style title, has been a ghost haunting the gacha space for some time now, but with official social media accounts for the game seemingly out in the world, we might be seeing some official announcements in the near future.On WeChat, the Chinese social media platform, you can look at accounts and see whether or not they are made by a member of the public or an organisation. From screenshots taken by BiliBili users, we can see that an account for Star Cuckoo Land (the other name for Astaweave Haven, assumed to be its domestic title) has been created. If t…

If you’re still playing Overwatch 2 in hopes of it returning to OW1’s glory days somehow, you might have noticed most events and collaborations nowadays are built around skins rather than actual playable content. Anyway, a collaboration with My Hero Academia is coming on October 17.The announcement arrived during Xbox’s TGS 2024 presentation, which was loaded with a number of interesting reveals, such as the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster collection coming to the consoles and both Starcraft Remastered and Starcraft 2’s single-player bits hitting Game Pass.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings This collab also comes right after the 20th anniversary celebration of World of Warcraft that added four new WoW skins to the game.

Having already rocked the worlds of those on PC, Baldur’s Gate 3’s uber-beefy Patch 7 has now arrived on console and Mac, bringing with it that huge array of changes and additions – including mods. Larian’s celebrated the latter by releasing another of its great little animated shorts, and urging you to kick off by slapping a hocus-pocus-infused thong in your load order.If you want the full rundown of what’s included in the patch now the full notes are out there, you’ll find all of those details about evil endings, mod support, revamped split screen, and all the rest of it in our article about the patch arriving on PC last month.

Gladiator 2 might not even be out yet, and Ridley Scott might be getting quite close to his 90s, but he’s already working on a script for a third one.After a 24 year gap, the 2000 historical epic classic Gladiator is finally getting a sequel, with Ridley Scott still at the helm, an impressive thing considering the director is 86 (and he’ll be 87 next month, too). That’s quite the wait for a sequel, especially one so directly connected as it is, but if Scott gets his way you probably won’t be waiting so long for the third one. While a third film hasn’t officially been announced in any capacity, in a recent interview with Total Film (in the magazine’s final issue, via GamesRadar) Scott shared that he’s currently working on a script for it, even if he hasn’t written all that much of it yet.To…
