Jack Black Wants To Keep Making More Super Mario Movies

Game News - Thu, 03/12/2026 - 01:23

Jack Black's performance as Bowser in The Super Mario Bros. Movie was one of the highlights of the film, and he'll be reprising his role next month in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. And if Black has his way, he'll be returning for several Mario sequels as well.

"I was chomping [sic] at the bit [to come back]," Black told Fandango during a group interview with the cast. "Are you kidding me? To get back in here and party again with this group, with some new special surprises. And once again, I think it's a marvel to behold. It's just an explosion of color and fun and joy. I'm always down to party with Bowser in this universe. Hopefully, we'll be making several more."

During the same interview, Black noted that it was difficult to find Bowser's voice during the production of the first film. But he found the experience to be rewarding.

A Rust Movie Could Happen, But Dev Says Many People Are Trying To Scam Them

Game News - Thu, 03/12/2026 - 00:44

Lots of games have been made into movies or have announced plans to become films, and now Facepunch's survival game Rust could join them. Alistair McFarlane, the director and COO of Facepunch, told PC Gamer that the studio has been "talking to people" about adapting Rust for a film.

However, it's still early days, and there is "nothing concrete" in the works as of yet. McFarlane did not name any potential partners outright but said "big-name companies" are in the mix.

No one should expect Facepunch to announce a Rust movie deal anytime soon, though, as McFarlane said Hollywood can move "very slow."

As Highguard Enters Final Day, Dev Says Online Discourse "Accelerated The Timeline Of Our Failure"

Game News - Thu, 03/12/2026 - 00:41

Developer Josh Sobel has reactivated his social media account after originally shutting it down following criticism of his original comments about what happened with the free-to-play game. Sobel returned to social media to say his original post was a mistake, but he doubled down on how online discourse surrounding the game played a part in its ultimate failure. However, he acknowledged that while it may have played a role, online sentiment was not the primary cause for Highguard's failure.

Sobel said, "I believe the online discourse around Highguard had some very dark corners that may have accelerated the timeline of our failure beyond the natural outcome of reasonable critique, but it wasn't the primary cause, and I don't personally believe the ultimate outcome would have been thoroughly different without it."

He went on to say there were "a lot of elements involved" in what went wrong with Highguard, and there is "no way to know how it would have gone under different circumstances."

New Hellraiser: Revival Trailer Shows How You'll Use The Rubik's Cube From Hell To Fight Cenobites

Game News - Thu, 03/12/2026 - 00:37

Hellraiser's Cenobites are a force of sadomasochistic nature in the movies and books, but in Hellraiser: Revival, players will have a chance to stand their ground against the pleasure-seeking monsters. In a new developer diary--which has plenty of violent and sexual content, so consider yourselves warned--Saber Interactive revealed more about some of the tools that players will have at their disposal, including the Genesis Configuration. Since it's age-restricted, you'll need to watch it on YouTube.

While players will have access to guns and melee weapons, the Genesis Configuration allows them to wield iconic Cenobite powers in combat and exploration. Similar in design to the Lament Configuration and other puzzle boxes created by the toymaker Philip LeMarchand, the Genesis Configuration is essentially a Swiss Army Knife of agony in Hellraiser: Revival.

Some of the box's powers are teased in the video, like the ability to conjure up hooks out of thin air and then use them to rip enemies apart, using it as a flamethrower, or altering reality to progress through levels. As narrative director Antony De Fault noted, there have always been a variety of Configurations across the franchise and lore.

Fortnite's Original Mode Is Finally Going Free-To-Play In April, Even On Switch 2

Game News - Thu, 03/12/2026 - 00:03

The Save the World mode that started it all for Fortnite will be accessible for free to almost all players starting April 16, reversing a decision by Epic Games nearly six years ago.

Save the World is a PvE sandbox survival mode that pits four players against hordes of monsters. With Fortnite's building mechanics, the mode has often been billed as "Minecraft meets Left 4 Dead."

Save the World will remain playable on PC, PlayStation 4 and 5, and Xbox One and Series X|S; previously accessible by purchasing a Starter Pack in the Fortnite Store (usually costing 1,500 V-Bucks), it'll be free-to-play on those platforms beginning April 16. It'll also be available for the Nintendo Switch 2 version, which wasn't the case when the Switch 2 port launched back in June. Mobile devices and the Switch 1 won't support the mode.
