The Sony Pictures live-action The Legend of Zelda movie will be exclusive to Netflix following its theatrical run, Netflix and Sony Pictures have announced as part of a larger deal.
The Netflix / Sony deal is a multi-year "Pay-1" agreement that begins this year. The Zelda movie was singled out in Netflix's announcement as some of the first SPE movies that will come to Netflix. Others include The Nightingale, Buds, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-verse, and the new Beatles movies from director Sam Mendes.
Deadline reported that Sony also considered making a deal with Amazon, but "Netflix stepped up." The report said the value of the deal is $7 billion, but neither Netflix nor Sony confirmed this.

The Italian Competition Authority is investigating Activision Blizzard over claims that the mobile games Diablo Immortal and Call of Duty Mobile engage in "misleading and aggressive practices."
The watchdog said the games are structured in such a way to encourage people to "play more often, extend their gaming sessions, and take up promoted offers" through "the possible use of deceptive user-interface design."
"Examples include repeated prompts, both during and outside gameplay, urging users not to miss out on rewards--also through in-app messages and push notifications--as well as to purchase time-limited items before they become unavailable," the group said.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons' big 3.0 update has finally arrived, introducing a slew of new content to the long-dormant life sim. On top of a brand-new island facility, a hotel run by Kapp'n's family, the update has added a wealth of items to collect, including Splatoon-themed furniture. However, you won't find it in your catalog right away.
Like the Sanrio crossover items that were introduced in the game's 1.9.0 update, the Splatoon items are locked behind Amiibo, which means you'll first need to scan a compatible figure before you can purchase the new furniture in the game. Fortunately, it's very simple. Here's a rundown on how to get the new Splatoon furniture. Don't forget to also check out our Animal Crossing: New Horizons guide hub for more helpful guides.

Along with a set of Lego furniture, you can now get clothing and other items based on Nintendo's Legend of Zelda series--but they won't be available right away.
Unlike the Super Mario crossover items, the new Zelda furniture is tied to certain Amiibo. The same is true for select Splatoon Amiibo. You'll need to have a compatible figure before you can get your hands on the items in the game. Fortunately, it's an easy process. Here's a rundown on how to unlock the Zelda furniture.

Actor Walton Goggins has shared new insight into his mental state for the newest season of Prime Video's Fallout TV show, saying he felt completely wiped out after making The White Lotus and The Righteous Gemstones, and this actually helped his performance in Fallout.
This story contains spoilers for Fallout.Speaking to Decider, Goggins said there is a moment in Episode 5, "The Wrangler," when his character, Cooper Howard, has "nothing left" and has "no control over his environment and doesn't understand what's happening in the world in real time." As it turned out, Goggins himself felt "the same way," he said.
"We filmed that day the morning after the premiere of The White Lotus; I had about three hours of sleep. I just had nothing left in the tank; it was exactly where I needed to be for that day," he said.

Ubisoft's The Division series celebrates its 10th anniversary this year, and the franchise has multiple games in the works right now, including The Division 3. The game was announced with little fanfare back in 2023, but more details have emerged since then. In this post, we're rounding up everything we know about the next entry in Ubisoft's popular online shooter series.
Table of Contents [hide]When will The Division 3 be released?Ubisoft has not announced a release date for The Division, or even a year. This information should come into focus in due course, but it remains to be seen when that could happen.
Ubisoft announced The Division 3 back in 2023. At the time, the company said it was "actively building a team" for the game, suggesting the announcement might have been more of an effort to recruit staff. Companies are known to announce games early on with little detail in an effort to encourage people to come work for the company.

When Madden NFL 27 arrives later this year, there will be nine new coaches roaming the sidelines for the 32 teams. Technically, a few of these won't necessarily be new altogether, as John Harbaugh goes from the Baltimore Ravens to New York Giants after being fired from the former. But undoubtedly, there will be at least a handful of first-timers with the amount of vacancies--equating to over a third of all organizations.
EA Sports has incorporated features like Coach DNA and Coach Speak into the Madden NFL series, so your team's coach can affect your in-game experience. They also have their own playsheets, too. So, for fans of the Ravens or Pittsburgh Steelers (Mike Tomlin stepped away), they should expect notable differences with whomever their teams hire when Madden NFL 27 launches. Harbaugh and Tomlin were also two of the longest-tenured coaches in the NFL, starting in 2008 and '07, respectively.

It's been three months since the announcement of Yakuza Kiwami 3, the highly anticipated remake of the 2009 classic Yakuza 3. After seeing how gorgeous the game looks and plays smoothly in the Dragon Engine, on top of the newly added Mine Saga "Dark Ties", I've been desperately waiting for more content to be revealed, especially when it comes to Kiryu's island life. Last week, Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio announced some of the new features coming to Yakuza Kiwami 3 that gave me even more hope that this is going to be another awesome Yakuza game, and afterward, I finally got a chance to go into full island dad mode with an extended preview demo that left me even more excited for this remake.
Unlike all the Yakuza/Like a Dragon games out so far, Yakuza 3 sees Kiryu living a somewhat peaceful life. After the conflict with Omi Alliance in Yakuza 2/Kiwami 2, Kiryu moves to Okinawa to run the Morning Glory Orphanage with his adoptive daughter, Haruka. The first half of the game focuses on his relationship with the kids at the orphanage, watching sunsets with Haruka, and engaging in silly substories as a father figure.
Although it would seem like seeing Kiryu let his guard down and go into dad mode would be enjoyable, I found the orphanage content to be pretty disappointing in the original game. Slowly walking around the house felt clunky and outdated even back in 2009, where opening every door welcomed a new loading screen--it got pretty irritating, pretty fast. It was a slog having to interact with each kid, an activity that came with very little reward. I remember finishing the game and wishing there was a better focus on Kiryu's life on the island, considering it's one of the only "wholesome" parts of Kiryu's saga we get to witness.

If you've been hoping for some sweeping balance changes among the Nightfarers in Elden Ring: Nightreign, then the day has arrived. From Software has released a new Nightreign Version 1.03.2 update that re-balances some of the weaker Nightfarers into more formidable heroes across all consoles and PC versions of the game.
As laid out on the official page for Elden Ring, Guardians received a damage negation buff as well as an increase to the Guard Boost ability. Raiders now have faster attacks with the exception of jump attacks of dual-wield attacks. Additionally, Raiders' attack range is extended when using the Ultimate Art "Totem Stela."
Revenants are getting more attack power when using the Ultimate Art "Immortal March" or the "Summon Spirit" skill. Executors got the most love from this update, with increased attack power, guard boost, stagger damage, and reduced stamina reduction when using the "Cursed Sword" character skill. Executors also received a handful of other buffs as well.
Continue Reading at GameSpotResident Evil Requiem Showcase Reveals Grace And Leon Gameplay Differences
Capcom's Resident Evil Requiem Showcase didn't reveal much about the story, but it did go into detail about how the game will change depending upon which character you're playing, and the title will also introduce new difficulty settings to the franchise. The new heroine, Grace Ashcroft, will represent a more classic, horror-focused approach to gameplay, similar to Resident Evil 2 and 6. But when players are in control of Leon S. Kennedy, the tone of the game will shift to a more action-oriented style like Resident Evil 4.
It doesn't sound like players will get to choose which character they will control, since certain parts of the story are meant for one or the other. Although Grace is physically weaker than Leon, she will have some abilities to make up for that. She will be able to craft weapons using the blood of the infected. And when Grace needs to shoot her way out of trouble, she'll have a powerful gun called Requiem to fall back on. To keep players from relying only on Requiem, the ammo will be limited.
RE Requiem is also introducing some new difficulty settings. The easiest mode is Casual, which lets players concentrate on the story and gives them an aim assist. Standard difficulty is a little harder, while Standard (Classic) won't let players save their games without finding a limited number of ink ribbons to use. That's a throwback to the save system in the older games in the franchise.
