Deadpool & Wolverine might have been a huge hit for Marvel Studios, but it's fair to say the Marvel Cinematic Universe needs to wow us consistently a few more times before we can claim we're in the 'Good Zone' again. All eyes are now set on 2025's releases, and those include Daredevil: Born Again, which is coming to Disney Plus and seemingly has been in the works for longer than we thought. During the last D23 event, Daredevil: Born Again stars Charlie Cox (Matt Murdock aka Daredevil) Vincent D'Onofrio (Wilson Fisk aka Kingpin) chatted with People and unveiled some of what happened behind the scenes as the original Netflix series was cancelled and nothing happened for a few years despite an unexpected call from Marvel honcho Kevin Feige in 2020. "It wasn't until midway through 2020 that we got a phone call from [President of Marvel Studios] Kevin [Feige] saying that they were interested in bringing the characters back...not even in the show at that point, just bringing the characters into MCU," Cox explained. Remember that Marvel Studios was still figuring out how the post-Endgame MCU would look like past phase four at that point, so it makes sense that maybe the initial plan was to bring their characters into an entirely different project, such as a Spider-Man movie.

It’s an oddly Halloweeny summer week for games, this one. Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s October 31st release date leaked earlier, Steam have put together a Summer Fright Night bundle featuring RPS fave Hauntii, and I’ve got a strange urge to gorge on Haribo and mini Double Deckers until blood comes out of my eyeballs. What a perfect time, then, to ***** into the alpha demo for vampire management game Blood Bar Tycoon, especially since Two Point seem to be resting on their laurels a bit too comfortably for my liking. The idea here is you build a swanky bar serving claret cosmopolitans, ichor-ish coffees and uh, viscera vampiros to your undead clientele. But (with the sorta exception of the crimson-sapped Dracaena cinnabari) blood doesn’t grow on trees, so you’ll also be moonlighting as a human-nabber. You’ll research a slew of “whacky contraptions” to extract their blood, which I greatly enjoy, because “zany exsanguination” is a real winner of a feature. You can’t frivolously phlebotomise with impunity, however - you’ll also want to be on the lookout for vampire hunters aka the fun police. Read more View the full article

Delta Force: Hawk Ops is going through its first alpha test, and as players get to know this shooter, more concerns about possible pay-to-win features arise. Even though other shooters might gladly sell you in-game currency, a developer from Team ***** promises Hawk Ops will do no such thing. In an AMA Reddit thread on Aug. 13, Delta Force: Hawk Ops game director Shadow Guo reassured us the game will never be pay-to-win. “As a dedicated FPS gamer myself, I made sure our team placed great importance on the global player experience and community.

Team FOLON, Fallout: London’s creators, have long been open about their ******* for people to create mods that put fresh twists on or add stuff to their massive mod, and they’ve now done a bit of leading by example in that regard, with a mod that injects some chaos into your playthrough via Baldur's Gate 3-esque dice rolls. After all, it’s not like British culture and the established dangers of the post-apocalypse are already enough to keep you on your toes as you explore the mod’s massive wasteland. The mod in question is the brainchild of Jordan ‘SunnyDelight’ Albon, Team FOLON’s lead 3D artist. They’re clearly a bit of a TTRPG fan, since their creation - dubbed ‘NAT20’ adds a massive twenty-sided dice to your character’s inventory that they can take out and activate to roll for random outcomes.

The release date of Dragon Age: The Veilguard appears to have leaked online ahead of the official reveal scheduled for later today. If the date that’s appeared online is accurate, you may well want to cancel any plans you had to go out trick or treating. Veilguard has, up until this point, only been pencilled in for Fall 2024. Naturally, this has prompted plenty of speculation as to the actual date, with EA financials having recently suggested that the game wouldn’t be arriving prior to October 1. Now, a short video, which appears to be an advertisement of some kind based on its very snappy runtime, has popped up online, citing the game’s release date as being October 31.
