Invincible VS Leaks Seem to Reveal First Look at DLC Characters and an Unexpected Spider-Man Reference Featuring J.K. Simmons

Image
Some of the Invincible VS DLC roster appears to have leaked online, pointing to the potential inclusion of fan-favorite characters and even an unexpected Spider-Man reference. As players flocked to try out the Invincible fighting game upon its launch on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X | S April 30, 2026, others were more excited to dig into its files to see what might be coming next. Post-launch leaks following a release like this feels like par for the course for games like this, but the supposed leaks tied to Invincible VS might have revealed what developer Quarter Up has planned when it comes to DLC in the months ahead. A post from X/Twitter user @multiversusie contains what appears to be uncovered files related to characters who have yet to be added to the game. Two of the names in question are the previously confirmed Immortal and Universa , with the others including the Mauler Twins, Damien Darkblood, Oliver, Angstrom, Dinosaurus, and Volcanikka. Each voice line seemingly ...

How 007 First Light's Quips and Quick Wits Make Bond Stand Apart from Agent 47

Image
One of key the reasons developer IO Interactive is an inspired choice for adapting Ian Fleming's secret agent James Bond for a new video game is the team's work on the Hitman series. Focused on a variety of stealthy sandbox missions where you can use any method to take out targets hidden in lavish, exotic settings, Hitman's house gameplay style fits well with the conceit of a Bond adventure – especially as IO's flagship series already has plenty of 007 influence baked in. But for 007 First Light, the developer wanted to offer a different spin on the open-ended gameplay it refined across earlier Hitman games. Along with familiar action set-pieces and slick gun battles, First Light's character-first approach to missions will let you use Bond's social skills and resourcefulness to overcome challenges. This created an opportunity for the dev team to make a more social, personality-driven stealth-action game, one that gives you the tools to make the most of the tense...

Crimson Desert Gets Major Patch Designed for Players Who'd Made Pywel Too Peaceful Because They'd Killed All the Enemies

Image
Crimson Desert developer Pearl Abyss has dropped another major patch for the game, this time adding brand new features designed for endgame players who had cleared out the world of combat. As IGN has reported, some Crimson Desert players had started to complain that the vast open world of Pywel had become too peaceful because they’d killed everyone . This was because for the most part enemies do not respawn, and camps, which you can overtake, do not become repopulated with enemies once you’ve cleared them out. Today’s patch changes all that by adding the boss Rematch and Re-blockade features. “We understand that as more regions of the continent were liberated, opportunities for combat naturally became less frequent,” Pearl Abyss said. “So to keep the sense of challenge alive, we've added the Rematch and Re-blockade content. We are continuing to refine these features, and this update serves as the first step by implementing their core, foundational systems. Building upon this base ...

Tech Experts Say The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered Still Suffers From Issues That Plagued It at Launch

Image
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered , without a patch on PC since July 2025, still suffers from issues that plagued it at launch, including worsening performance the more you play. In May last year, the tech experts at Digital Foundry said The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered suffered from significant performance problems , including hitches while roaming the open world, frame-rate problems, and even performance degrading slowly with more playing time, potentially due to a memory leak. Now, a year after the game’s release, Digital Foundry has revisited Oblivion Remastered to check in on how it performs, and found many of the same issues. “As you may have noticed, the game hasn't been patched on PC since its 1.2 update arrived in July 2025 - a very short post-launch support window, given that the game was only released in late April the same year,” Digital Foundry said. “Unfortunately, that abandonment means that the game remains in a state that could be described as a...

Crimson Desert Player Takes a Dragon Ride Out of Bounds, Discovers Previously Unseen Parts of Pywel

Image
An intrepid Crimson Desert player has ventured far out of bounds and discovered a deserted but fully functional village. No-one knows what the village is for, but some are speculating it may be cut content, or even hint at a location for DLC. Pearl Abyss’ smash hit single-player open world game has an enormous map to explore, and for some who have put hundreds of hours into it already, that journey is over. But for a Crimson Desert player known as Riskbreaker, that was not enough. As shown in a clip on the Crimson Desert subreddit, below, Riskbreaker headed north on the back of a dragon and went out of bounds. Far north of Pailune, they found, is a fully functional, snow-drenched village. I found an entire unused village hidden behind a mountain while exploring out of bounds by u/RazielOfBoletaria in CrimsonDesert Riskbreaker visited the village a few times to get a decent look around, using Photo Mode to pause time and move the camera about. The village is deserted, but there are...

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Devs Answered Fan Questions on Reddit and Inevitably Most Were About AI

Image
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II developer Warhorse Studios came under fire during a reddit AMA in which fans repeatedly questioned the team on its use of generative AI after it allegedly dismissed a translator to cut costs. In March, former Warhorse translator Max Hejtmánek took to reddit to reveal his position had been made "obsolete" as the studio pivoted to AI in a bid to save money and "make the company more efficient." At the time, Hejtmánek said the decision "came as a huge shock," adding: "The discussion about using AI for translating had frequently come up in the past, something I was always strongly and vocally against, but never to the extent that it might actually cost me my job in the future. It had, of course, crossed my mind many times, but I naively thought my work at [Warhorse Studios] was valued enough that I might not be at immediate risk." Perhaps unsurprisingly, Hejtmánek's firing took center stage during the team's AMA...

Image
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 live support has been officially extended into a third year, publisher Focus Entertainment has announced. The news comes after the explosive third-person action game hit a hugely impressive 12 million players, two years after its 2024 launch. “Lately, our updates have been very well received by the community, which really motivates us to keep up the momentum for the third year,” Focus said in a community post . The breakout success of Space Marine 2, set in the grimdark universe of Games Workshop’s tabletop war game, cannot be understated. Tim Willits, development chief of developer Saber Interactive, told IGN soon after the game came out that Space Marine 2 had changed everything for the studio as sales exploded — and they’ve increased at a steady pace since. Space Marine 2’s recent addition to subscription services PlayStation Plus and Xbox Game Pass has only boosted player numbers further. It wasn’t long after Space Marine 2 came out that Space Mar...
