Rainbow Six Siege doesn’t need to switch game engines and ‘can last forever,’ creative director says

Fallout's long-awaited TV show is a little under a month away, and we got our best look at the project so far with a trailer released earlier this month.

Netflix’s new Adam Sandler movie is unique in the Sandman canon: Despite sending the comedic actor to space for an encounter with an oversized alien spider, most of the potentially corny laughs are swapped for melancholic tears. Like Solaris, The Fountain, and Ad Astra before it, director Johan Renck’s Spaceman is a meditative intragalactic drama orbiting around a heartfelt performance from Sandler. It’s not the first movie with the kind of visual effects that demand an actor’s unbridled imagination, but filming Spaceman was a test that took him outside his comfort zone.

Dune: Awakening, a survival MMO set in the world of Dune, isn't toning down the threat of sandworms to work in the game.

Immortals of Aveum saw a very rough debut last summer, with the first-person magic-shooter from new studio Ascendant and EA reportedly suffering poor sales and mixed reviews - resulting in almost half of its developers being laid off mere weeks after its launch. Despite being a reported $125 million flop that “no-one bought”, its director believes that it could still go on to find an audience yet.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's director says the new action-RPG is reaching for a level that was never possible before today's technology, and that's just like the original 1997 game.

Arknights is rolling out a new story event, Operation Lucent Arrowhead. Team Arknights just dropped a new promotional video for the event, which will feature characters from Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege. It’s set to drop in China first, so it’s likely to make its way to the global version soon.

Rainbow Six Siege's sequel dreams have been dashed by the title's director, as he believes pushing out one would be a mistake.

Rainbow Six Siege's creative director Alexander Karpazis doesn't believe the elderly shooter needs a change of game engine or for that matter, a sequel.
