Sephiroth And Zack Join Bring Arts' PS1-Inspired Final Fantasy 7 Figure Line
With Final Fantasy VII's popularity surging once again following the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth earlier this year, it's no surprise Square Enix is launcing lots of official FF7 merch, including several awesome figures based on the beloved RPG and its many spinoffs, sequels, and remakes.
The coolest of the upcoming collectibles is Bring Arts' new line of figures based on Tetsuya Nomura's original character illustrations for Final Fantasy VII on PS1. Bring Arts have already revealed figures based on the main playable cast, and now the game's villain Sephiroth is joining the lineup, as is the ultimate Final Fantasy best boy, Zack Fair.
Sephiroth and Zack Fair Bring Arts FiguresAlong with the new characters, a second Cloud Strife figure is now available for preorder as well, this time featuring his Hardy-Daytona motorcycle, and is the biggest figure of the lineup announced so far. If you've already preordered the base Cloud figure, you can also preorder the motorcycle by itself.

The moment all of your uncles have been anticipating for over a decade has arrived: EA Sports College Football 25 is finally here. With it comes a wave of nostalgia for anyone who played NCAA Football 14 or any of its previous installments, and an air of curiosity for those who have only experienced Madden. After you've played a decent amount of games and that initial rush is over, does EA Sports College Football 25 live up to the hype?
To my surprise, the answer was yes. At first, I was simply expecting a one-to-one Madden reskin. Yet as soon as the first game started, the presentation and pageantry on display were quick indications that this was a brand-new ball game. EA Sports College Football 25 perfectly encapsulates what attending a college football game is like. Vibrant and viciously loud crowds, hundreds of university-specific walkouts and traditions, and uniquely designed stadiums make each school's ambiance give off its own air of distinct excitement.
That production isn't just for pre-rendered cutscenes, as EA Sports College Football 25 also looks impressive during its moment-to-moment gameplay. You can just about see every pore and bead of sweat running down players' skin as they bounce off each other, and movement and AI reactivity are much more realistic than what we've seen in Madden thus far.

Although HBO recently abandoned plans to make The Batman's Arkham Asylum spin-off, director Matt Reeves has grand ambitions beyond the upcoming series starring Colin Farrell as The Penguin. Now, Reeves has revealed that his shared universe is called the Batman Epic Crime Saga, and he has more potential spin-offs in mind.
"As we were writing [The Batman], I was like, 'Hey, you know what? I think there are some cool shows that we could do,'" Reeves told EW. "It was actually why I wanted to make our deal at Warner Bros." He also recalled that HBO executives told him, "We like what you're doing, and we want to lean harder into the marquee characters."
One of the previous potential spin-off shows would have been centered on a corrupt cop in the Gotham City Police Department during Batman's first year as a vigilante. Reeves related to EW that some aspects of that former project were integrated into The Penguin's storyline. However, Reeves and his collaborators haven't decided which Batman-related character should get the spotlight in the next spin-off show.

Team FOLON, the indie studio working on the highly anticipated Fallout London mod, has announced that players will finally be able to explore a post-apocalyptic London starting today, July 25.
Although the drop may seem a bit sudden, Team FOLON has been teasing it since last week. The studio announced (via Kotaku) in its Discord that GOG gave the mod the green light and was in its final stages. Then, on July 24, Team FOLON project manager Dean Carter released another statement to its Discord that read, "Stay safe and remember. Mind the gap.” The message was accompanied by a link to a song called "I Just Can't Wait (For Tomorrow)" that is featured in Fallout London. While speaking to Inverse, Carter confirmed Fallout London would be playable on July 25.
Fallout London was initially supposed to launch earlier this year on April 23. However, the date was pushed back due to the Fallout 4 current-gen update. As the name suggests, Fallout London takes place in London and is set 50 years before the events of Fallout 4. The mod has placed a significant emphasis on realism and melee combat and features voice acting from Neil Newborn (Baldur's Gate 3), Colin Baker (Doctor Who), and Sylvester McCoy (Doctor Who).

The Sims 4's new Lovestruck expansion brings some spice to Sims' love lives, but those lives may soon be turned upside down with the release of a death-based DLC that's currently rumored to be in the works.
It all started when popular Sims YouTuber Lilsimsie started a livestream showcasing the Lovestruck expansion, which includes a number of new furniture items. One of these new items is a poster featuring an elderly Sim taking a jog. "Why are you encouraging elder Sims to exercise? Shame!" she teased.
But SimsGuruNinja, an EA employee who works on the game, happened to be lurking in her chat, and his answer was as interesting as it was cryptic: "But don't worry. Elders will die better soon."
