Death Stranding has officially received an ESRB rating of M for Mature. We already knew Death Stranding would involve some shooting action, with scenes in trailers showing Norman Reedus holding a gun. We’ve already seen protagonist Sam with his rear on display, so it’s almost certainly referring to Norman Reedus’ birthday suit in this instance. Catching up on the latest news about Death Stranding?

The long-awaited follow-up to 2009’s horror-comedy Zombieland just got a new a trailer, and it features a return from the original’s most high-profile cameo, Bill Murray. The veteran actor and pop-culture icon takes the stage for a brief sequence in the new trailer for Zombieland 2 , although I should note he was very explicitly killed in one of the first film’s most memorable moments. Still, his brief cameo and hilariously abrupt undoing are my favorite parts of Zombieland, and it’ll surely be

If all goes according to plan, Call of Duty Modern Warfare will mark a comeback for a franchise many felt had begun to grow stale, ironically by rebooting one of the most classic entries in the franchise. Despite Activision calling the story in Call of Duty Modern Warfare “edgy, culturally relevant, and thought-provoking,” the latest trailer is peak Call of Duty, front to back. There are pep talks had over the sound of a helicopter’s whipping blades, night vision views, exploding vehicles, explo

In a new comparison video posted by PlayStation showing extended runs of both the 1998 original MediEvil and the 2019 remake, it seems that in 21 years MediEvil has certainly “glowed up,” but it hasn’t changed in a bunch of other meaningful ways. Watching some of the transitions from the 1998 version to 2019, it’s clear the studio succeeded in bringing MediEvil into 2019 as faithfully as humanly possible. As someone who hadn’t played the original MediEvil, the slippery feel of combat was admitte

Netflix’s live-action adaptation of Cowboy Bebop is currently in production, and the streaming service has revealed their perfect corgi casting. Netflix revealed the news in a video shot in “Corgi-Vision”, which also offers our first look at the principal cast – human and canine – together, though out of costume. The concept of a “table read” would probably be difficult for most dogs, but Ein is an artificially engineered data dog so he can read just fine. Really hoping the entire season of Cowb

Back in August of 2016, Nintendo filed a bunch of patents with the Japanese patent office for a variety of Switch Joy-Con designs. Recently, Nintendo has also filed patents for bendable, hinged Joy-Con controllers , but let’s look at some of the earlier Joy-Con ideas (spoiler: there’s a chonky one). A lawsuit, one that now includes owners of the brand new Nintendo Switch Lite . Another design had a much more crowded layout, with smaller analog sticks, double D-pads, and two stacked buttons on ea

Garden of Salvation, the new Destiny 2: Shadowkeep raid , was released on Saturday, October 5 at 1pm EST. With a world-first completion time of six hours and change, Garden of Salvation is somewhere in the middle of the pack compared to Destiny 2’s other raids. The last raid, Crown of Sorrow, was initially billed as a raid lair, and was substantially smaller than Garden of Salvation. Compare that to Destiny 2’s first raid, Leviathan, which took players just over five hours. Garden of Salvation h

The second week of Borderlands 3 ‘s Anniversary Celebration event is nearly here, and it is going to be crawling with rare spawns. Gearbox and 2K Games have revealed that it’s just about time for the Rare Spawn Hunt – as their name suggests, rare spawns typically only show up every now and then, you might go the whole game without seeing any.

Before this year’s New York Comic Con panel, the only clue we regarding the Star Trek: Picard release date was that the series would debut at some point in 2020. Even the eponymous captain himself, Sir Patrick Stewart, remained coy regarding an announcement, saying “sometime soon” before debuting the exclusive New York Comic Con trailer. Data asks him to finish the painting, which is of a young woman, but Picard responds with “I don’t know how.” Clearly, Picard’s Star Trek story isn’t finished y

The reveal trailer for Breath of the Wild 2 was one of the most exciting moments of E3 2019, and now thanks to modeler and animator The Regressor , we know how it would’ve looked at E3 1999. This N64-era demake of the Breath of the Wild 2 reveal trailer is one of the more surreal fan creations I’ve seen in some time, bringing the future of the Zelda franchise back to the generation I was introduced to it. From the untrained eye, it’s exactly what I would’ve imagined the Breath of the Wild 2 reve
