Cue the scenes of inter-planetary celebrations, as Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order pre-order bonuses are now available for all. Now all players can turn it orange and let their ancient weapons thrum with the power of citrus and creamsicles. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order came out on November 15, meaning the pre-order exclusive content only remained exclusive for two months. That’s an observation, not a complaint – I wish everybody unlocked pre-order bonuses a couple months after their games came out

Shenmue 3 ‘s first DLC just got a release date, and it’s sooner than you’d think. ‘Battle Rally’ will drop on January 21, and will offer “fresh gaming activities in a race unlike any other, as contestants engage in head-to-head battles whilst racing their way through the course.” If you already have the Complete DLC Collection, you’ll get ‘Battle Cry’ the day it launches. If you’d like to purchase it separately, it’ll be $7.99 / £6.49 in the PlayStation Store or Epic Games Store. We know there w

A massive Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker leak has revealed director Colin Trevorrow’s original plans for Episode 9. The video initially appeared on the Star Wars Leaks forum on Reddit, and later independently verified by AV Club, giving this information more credence than the usual Reddit leaks. Star Wars: Duel of the Fates – a reference to the epic John Williams score from that Phantom Menace Darth Maul fight. It was originally meant for Darth Vader, telling him to take Luke Skywalker to anci

Sony Santa Monica Studio’s narrative animator Kim Newman has posted a picture on Twitter in a full motion-capture suit, which could mean that the long-rumoured God of War sequel is in production. Last year, it posted job listings recruiting for a senior combat animator with a “knowledge of God of War (2018).” This requirement could be taken in a number of ways, but suggests the next God of War could take place in Eastern Asia. Early last year, an interesting God of War PS4 theme also hinted wher

The Coma 2: Vicious Sisters is a sequel to the well-received The Coma: Recut, and it’s leaving Steam Early Access for full release on January 28. The Coma 2: Vicious Sisters sees protagonist Mina Park venture outside the boundaries of the school in an effort to elude “someone or something that looks eerily like her teacher.” Here’s a bit of PR from Devespresso Games about The Coma 2: Vicious Sisters: “Over the course of the story, Mina will encounter dangerous scenarios from which she could sust

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot releases on PS4, Xbox One, and PC January 17, but Bandai Namco is already prepping for launch with a massive, 11gb day one update. The update is comprised of two separate patches, 1.01 and 1.02, which together improve loading times and add quality of life improvements and new sub stories. Broken down into two patches, patch 1.01 adds “system features related to bonuses,” while patch 1.02 improves loading times, adds fast travel to Korin Tower Summit and Capsule Corporation

Amazon Studios has given the green light to a Jack Reacher TV series based on the books by Lee Child. Child’s first Jack Reacher novel, Killing Floor, will serve as the foundation for the first season of the Jack Reacher TV show, Deadline reports. The Sopranos and Prison Break writer Nick Santora will write, executive produce, and serve as showrunner on the Jack Reacher TV show, with Amazon Studios, Skydance Television, and Paramount Television Studios as joint producers. The Jack Reacher TV sho

Destiny 2’s Season of Dawn has been fairly underwhelming thus far, between an overly familiar horde mode and the brief Destiny 2 Devil’s Ruin quest, but a surprise puzzle has gotten its hooks into players. Today’s weekly reset delivered a new mission given by Osiris, and like the Saint-14 missions released earlier in the season, it takes players into the annals of time. The mission is tied to a fairly complex puzzle – one so tough that, as of this writing, players have yet to crack it. Naturally

It’s a bit early to say it, but maybe 2020 will turn out just fine, considering there’s The Mandalorian Baby Yoda toy coming to Build-A-Bear. And (wait for it) she even held up a prototype of the Baby Yoda Build-A-Bear. I bet Baby Yoda’s 2020 ballot includes universal health care…There’s no release date for The Child Build-A-Bear, but expect it sometime in the next few months. For context, most of the other Baby Yoda merch we’ve seen isn’t shipping out until the springtime (I would know, as I or

The main cast of Amazon Prime’s Lord of the Rings TV series has been announced. We’d seen reports about four of the actors – Aramayo, Horvath, Kavenagh, and Mawle – joining the cast of The Lord of the Rings, but Amazon hadn’t confirmed their casting until now. Roles for the new cast members haven’t been announced, but a report from THR says Mawle will play the series’ villain, Oren. Deadline first reported that Aramayo will replace Will Poulter in the Lord of the Rings TV series’ leading role, B

It’s official – the Epic Games Store weekly game giveaways won’t stop coming throughout all of 2020. When 2019 ended and the free games did not, we couldn’t help but wonder if and when the well would run dry. Epic has now confirmed it’ll be giving away free games every week for all of 2020, so we know the well has at least a year’s worth of free goodies left in it. Epic giving away free games suggests the Epic Games Store isn’t struggling, despite the controversy that has surrounded it in and it

Billie Eilish will co-write and perform the title song of the next James Bond film, No Time to Die. She has become the youngest ever singer to perform a James Bond theme song. “To be able to score the theme song to a film that is part of such a legendary series is a huge honour. James Bond is the coolest film franchise ever to exist. Eilish has co-written the movie’s as-yet-untitled theme song with her brother, Finneas O’Connell, who helped pen her mega-hit “Bad Guy”.

Not only does it include a big MCU Spider-Man reference in graffiti form, but also a surprise appearance from Michael Keaton’s Vulture. There are two big moments from the Morbius trailer pointing to where the movie fits on the Marvel timeline: the Spider-Man graffiti, and the scene between Morbius and Vulture. Despite confusingly using the pose from the Spider-Man PS4 game with the Sam Raimi webbed suit, the “murderer” reference can be tied to only one thing – the Spider-Man: Far From Home post-

Super Nintendo World’s summer launch has been officially announced, alongside the “Power Up Bands” you’ll use in the park. Nintendo released a music video giving us a glimpse of the plans for the park, as well as a new Galantis and Charli XCX song. While the video gives us a glimpse of some of the things we can expect from Super Nintendo World, more info came from Bloomberg journalist Kurumi Mori. The main takeaway is that the Power Up Band, which connects to a smartphone app, will “make you fee

With Doom Eternal ‘s March 20 release date fast approaching, Bethesda released a new trailer today to highlight the stakes and players of the game’s hellish war. He communicates exclusively in violence and the sound of shotgun cocking, and clearly has no time for games. “Saving your people will not bring you peace, only make the burden you carry worse,” another tells the Slayer. After that little convo, it’s nothing but the pure, unfiltered violence you’d expect from a Doom trailer. As we said i

BioWare sent out a cryptic Mass Effect tweet earlier today, and it’s got us wondering WTF is going on. Attached to the tweet is part of the opening cinematic for the original Mass Effect game, with the ‘Mass Effect Theme’ playing over it. The civilizations of the galaxy call it… Mass Effect.” There’s not much else to glean from this tweet, but it’s important to note that it’s unlike the other posts BioWare has been putting up lately. Of course, this tweet could also just be another case of Bio

More news about Super Nintendo World is finally coming tomorrow. The official Twitter account for Universal Studios Japan sent out a Tweet that teases the latest information for Super Nintendo World will arrive tomorrow around noon, Japan time. Leaks indicate the park will include rides themed after Super Mario Kart and Yoshi’s Adventures, and that park visitors will receive a magnetic bracelet that tracks their interactions (and scores) with various elements of Super Nintendo World. Though Supe

Here’s something to sink your teeth into: the first Morbius trailer, starring Jared Leto as the titular vampire is here and ready to watch. Introducing Michael Morbius, a doctor dealing with a condition that leaves him weak and struggling to walk. If so, how does it tie into the MCU and Sony’s own Spider-Man universe? There had been rumblings of a Morbius trailer reveal across the weekend. A leaked shot of Leto’s creature of the night surfaced (via The Wrap), while actor Tyrese Gibson confirmed

A strangely worded, suspiciously timed event is coming to New York’s Sony Square showroom. The “Experience PlayStation” event starts tomorrow, January 14, and will run through February 16. The last time Sony revealed a console, the PS4 Pro, it did so at an event in New York. As Variety reported, the theater that housed that event has since closed, so it’s possible Sony will use its New York showroom to unveil the PS5 instead. However, whether this Experience PlayStation event will contain PS5 ne

The Legends of Runeterra beta, a card game in the League of Legends universe, will arrive for players on January 23rd, if they pre-register, from 11AM PT/7 PM GMT. Legends of Runeterra is a card game set in Runeterra, the same universe as League of Legends. Which means, unlike other card games, you can’t pay for packs full of cards, you can only unlock them through gameplay. If Legends of Runeterra sounds like your cup of tea, check out the official website for more information, videos, guides,
