Marvel actor Simu Liu has revealed that he is attempting to revive the Sleeping Dogs series with a movie and a sequel to the 2012 game. Liu, who starred in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, said on social media that it’s been a “tiring” process to pitch Sleeping Dogs to executives, going on to note how only a small percentage of film projects that are pitched ever get made.

“Everyone’s overwhelming love of Sleeping Dogs here has give us life,” he said, referring to the social media campaign to get a Sleeping Dogs movie off the ground. Liu said his plan is to make a Sleeping Dogs movie first, “then a sequel game for everyone,” or at least, “that’s always been the dream.”

House of the Dragon actor Ewan Mitchell plays Aemond Targaryen on the Game of Thrones spinoff series House of the Dragon, but the actor has never seen the original show. He told ComicBook that he intentionally avoided the original fantasy series so he could play Aemond with fresh eyes.

“I haven’t seen the original Game of Thrones,” Mitchell said. “I have a confession to make. I’ve never seen it and I didn’t want to watch it going into this role. I didn’t want it to inform my decisions in any way, shape, or form, you know, whether it be consciously or subconsciously. I wanted to bring something fresh. Aemond is one of a kind, you know.”

Given the events of Season 1 and specifically its momentous conclusion, Aemond will no doubt have a larger role to play in House of…

Ad Infinitum–a World War 1 survival-horror game first announced all the way back in 2015–seemed like it had become vaporware, but that’s no longer the case. During the Nacon Connect presentation on July 6, the game got a re-reveal trailer, though you will still have to wait a pretty long time before you can play it.

The re-reveal trailer features a dead soldier slumped over a barbed wire-covered obstacle, with what appears to be a mine just by his head. The mine doesn’t detonate, but a mysterious creature grabs the body and disappears, and the camera pulls out to reveal dozens more dead soldiers in the same area.

“In Ad Infinitum, you play a conscripted German soldier returning home after the Great War, but the trauma you experienced in the tr…

After parting ways with the game studio that he helped co-found in 2007, former Platinum Games VP Hideki Kamiya has spoken about what he has been up to lately and what he has planned for his next game project. Kamiya revealed that since his September departure, he’d spent some time relaxing as he had no plans lined up for life after Platinum Games. According to the veteran developer, his departure was the result of creative differences and the company moving in a different direction that clashed with his artistic beliefs.

“I don’t think of games as products, but rather as works of art,” Kamiya said to IGN. “I want to put my artistry into games and deliver games that could only be made by Hideki Kamiya, so that players can enjoy Hideki Kamiya games exactly as they are Come from Read more

It looks like the Grid is coming to Fall Guys, as developer Mediatonic is teasing a new batch of what certainly look to be Tron-themed skins coming to the popular multiplayer title. Come from Sports betting site VPbet

The image shows a number of silhouettes. One almost certainly looks like Tron from the original 1982 film, with another likely to be the film’s villain Sark (the character’s distinctive helmet makes it a dead giveaway).

Fall Guys has received skins for everything from Doom to Godzilla in the past, so anything is …
