In a recent interview with the devs behind the Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy, the game’s director expressed some bold feelings about the third and final part.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings Final Fantasy 7 Remake and its follow-up Rebirth have been some of the most anticipated games for fans of the original game for many years, and all this time later we’re getting closer and closer to the final part. Square Enix recently shared a two hour long behind the scenes look at Rebirth, which featured producer Yoshinori Kitase and director Hamaguchi, and both devs hyped up the last game to potentially an unobtainable standard. “When I think about the third and final game in the Remake trilogy, it really does fill me with excitement, and I have such great…
Read moreThe Witcher 4 is almost definitely still years away, but if you’re a fan of the books the games are based on, there’s some good news.It’s pretty unclear how far away The Witcher 4 is, that’s just the nature of game development these days, though CD Projekt Red has at least made it clear that the upcoming sequel is “the most advanced” of its projects. Production is meant to be starting this year at least, so hopefully it’s only a few years away at the very least. Still, considering The Witcher 3 is almost decade old, that’s quite the long wait for something new from the beloved action RPG. There’ll certainly be plenty of Witcher fans out there that are just interested in the games, but for those of you that have gone as far as ready the books, the original author has some welcome news: he’s…
Read moreMost moviegoers agree that Alien: Romulus is a pretty fun time and perhaps even the sci-fi horror series’ best since Aliens (1986). Well, it depends on how crazy your personal ranking of the franchise is. Anyway, with both Alien and Predator now back on track, it appears that 20th Century Studios isn’t slowing down and has already started shooting the next Predator standalone flick.Via AvP Galaxy, who have done a pretty great job over the years of staying on top of everything Alien and Predator, we’ve learned that Predator: Badlands is now filming in New Zealand. The directing-writing duo of Dan Trachtenberg (10 Cloverfield Lane) and Patrick Aison (Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes) is again behind the wheel, so that’s reason to celebrate, as 2022’s Prey kicke…
Read moreDisney isn’t making a live-action Frozen, but if it does, it’ll just need to give Anya Taylor-Joy a quick call it seems.A live-action Frozen movie feels like an inevitability, doesn’t it? It’s not like Disney is against doing it for their newer films, it’s doing one for Moana which came out after Frozen, so you have to wonder why the house of mouse hasn’t sought after an adaptation of its mega-hit. My best guess is that it wouldn’t sell toys quite as well as the animated original, but it could be for a sillier reason, Disney makes plenty of baffling choices after all. Still, it won’t have to look very hard when it comes to casting Elsa if it does end up making one, as Furiosa star and Princess Peach herself Anyway Taylor Joy has put her hat in the ring (even if she’s currently not up again…

Read moreAs expected, The Witcher 3’s REDkit modding tools have given modders a chance to have a go at doing a lot of complex stuff they couldn’t beforehand. The latest of these looks to be the first ever proper attempt at giving the whole map full-blown seasons, and its creator says they’re planning to see if they can get the time of year to switch dynamically in the future.Yep, stop desperately trying to read into the extra line another modder added into TW3’s best ending the other day while you wait for more news on The Witcher 4. As far as I can tell, this is a step beyond the very good individual mods that’ve, for example, allowed you to see what snowy Toussaint would look like.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings Inspired by ‘Seasons of Skyrim’, a mod fro…

Read moreIf you haven’t heard of the name The Forever Winter over the last several months, you’ve likely been recommended a video of/about the game at some point on YouTube. That name may not be memorable, but the main tagline of “you’re not the guy” certainly grabbed the attention of many sci-fi fans.Part extraction shooter, part survival game, The Forever Winter is a third-person shooter set in a war-torn world, where humanity isn’t a key player in the conflict for a change. Players simply try to eke out any resources they can while they try to avoid battling armies engaged in their own conflict.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings That particular pitch is what got many players excited about The Forever Winter leading up to…

Read moreDisney and Epic Games are still working on their big ole metaverse together, but one thing you can’t expect from it is Mickey Mouse running around with a gun.Earlier this year, the house of mouse made a whopping $1.5 billion investment into Epic to create a “persistent universe” tied to Fortnite, though unsurprisingly we’re yet to see the fruits of that labour. There have been plenty of Disney-owned IPs that have appeared in the battle royale, like numerous Star Wars characters and most recently characters from Incredibles, but this massive metaverse project will still be quite a while away. The Verge recently spoke with Epic Games EVP Saxs Persson about this upcoming project, with the most interesting point shared being about the limits of working with certain IP in a technically quite vi…
