Warhammer 40,000's movie and TV deal with Amazon now finalised

While there is no shortage of video games based on Games Workshop IPs out there, it’s not often we get one that’s truly worth talking about. However, Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader is a fantastic turn-based tactical RPG that makes amazing use of its source material while still providing an immense amount of freedom to its players. Unfortunately, it also happened to release in the same year as another RPG based on a major IP, Baldur’s Gate 3 , which outperforms it in pretty much every aspect. With that in mind, Rogue Trader might not be the best tactical RPG to come out in 2023, but it is the best Warhammer 40,000 title released last year.

Atlus has released a new trailer for Persona 3 Reload, showcasing the opening animated movie for the upcoming remake. It sees the protagonist Makoto Yuki switching between tracks, including “Burn My Dread” from the original, and settling on “Full Moon Full Life,” a brand new song. Check it out below.

Wile E. Coyote voice actor Eric Bauza has shared the first look at Coyote vs. Acme, the completed but canceled Warner Bros. movie. 

The “new on Netflix” list is finally coming back to life. Despite being the Xerox of streaming platforms, Netflix’s library strategy has dramatically shifted from licensed to original content as other studios have jumped into the on-demand content game. Meaning the answer to “Is the movie I want to watch on Netflix?” has mostly been: “No, bruh.”

2024 is already shaping up to be a big year for the Pokemon TCG. New stacking tins are already available for pre-order, as are items in the upcoming Paldean Fates expansion if you're lucky enough to find any. If not, there's a brand new mini tin bundle available on Amazon that, at the time of typing this at least, isn't sold out.

Owlcat Games has released a new update for Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader for PC and consoles. It fixes a “vast majority” of broken quests and cutscenes, which would block progression for players or only work when making specific choices. Several items and abilities that didn’t work have also been fixed, along with desync cases in co-op.

On the last day of the year, a new online scam has surfaced which is trapping many innocent people. On January 16, the inauguration ceremony for the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya will begin, with the consecration of Ram Lalla scheduled for January 22. Ahead of the big event, some bad actors are asking people for donations by pretending to be representatives of the Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra, the trust constituted to look after the construction and management of the Ram Mandir. These scammers are pulling off a QR code scam where they share a fake QR code to transfer the money to their own accounts.

Aquaman's James Wan looks to be making a movie based on one of H.P. Lovecraft's most iconic horror stories, The Call of Cthulhu – which, in turn, is going to be adapted into a video game. 

Buried within Games Workshop’s announcement that Henry Cavill's Warhammer 40,000 Cinematic Universe is "now properly rolling" is a tantalising tease that a Warhammer Fantasy Cinematic Universe could be next.

2022 did not end particularly well for our favorite hunk of burning PC gamer Henry Cavill. After leaving The Witcher to return to the big screen as DC's top-dog superhero, the Superman project fell apart, his old job was gone, and he was very suddenly looking for something to do. But there was one bright spot: After all of the above had unfolded, Games Workshop confirmed that Cavill was set to head up, and star in, a Warhammer 40,000 «cinematic universe.»

There will be a lengthy gap of X-Men games on Sony’s rival platforms. I’m sure you’re all familiar with the recent ransomware attack. Well, it looks like Sony didn’t pay up, and the group has since moved on to deliver a series of leaked documents from Insomniac Games. The developer behind Marvel’s Spider-Man and upcoming Marvel’s Wolverine has been finding their upcoming projects’ roadmaps, leaked plot details, and more. Among the recent set of leaked documents, a signed deal between Marvel and Sony shows that X-Men has become an exclusive IP for Sony.
