Brandon Sanderson has been heavily invested in making tabletop adaptations of his Cosmere books . Most recently, he's been collaborating with Brotherwise Games on standalone board games as well as a larger Cosmere TTRPG. It's unsurprising, then, that his interest in such adaptations expands beyond his most popular literary universe. IGN recently had the chance to interview Sanderson , and we asked him if he's considered making tabletop adaptations of Skyward and the rest of the Cytoverse. "I would love to! We've talked about it. However, I also want to be aware of asking my fans for too much," Sanderson told IGN. "There are a lot of great books out there, and a lot of great games. I don't want or need it to be all Brandon Sanderson all the time. We try to be very deliberate and careful about these kinds of collaborations, to only be doing what will feel the most exciting to my fans." Sanderson's answer here doesn't rule out the possibili...

The voice actor behind GTA 5’s Franklin went viral after revealing his personal disagreement with famous Twitch steamer Kai Cenat, but the two stars are on good terms again. Shawn ‘Solo’ Fonteno is the voice behind one of Grand Theft Auto ’s most iconic characters, Franklin Clinton. He made an appearance on Kai Cenat’s Twitch stream as a special guest back in 2024, where he took the influencer on a tour of the neighborhoods in Los Angeles that appeared in the game’s fictional city of Los Santos. However, Solo said this was likely the last stream he’d ever do with Cenat due to the broadcaster’s interaction with a young fan that happened during their outing. In a September 2026 episode of the Dope As Usual podcast, Solo explained that Kai Cenat approached a young fan during the stream who came from a struggling family. According to Solo, Cenat had offered to buy the fan a motorcycle — but Solo says he never made good on that promise. “This was a family that didn’t have much at all, bro...

Marvel's Wolverine explains why Logan's clothes can heal, just like his body. Near the beginning of Marvel's Wolverine, Logan is gifted a proper superhero suit from Walter Langkowski. It's Wolverine's signature suit from the comics, cowl and all. Langkowski explains that his suit utilizes nano-tech, which can autorepair Logan's suit in the field. It's a clever workaround to make sure Wolverine's suit doesn't get shredded to the point of no return, leaving him to run around in the nude (though, that's not really out of character, either). However, this isn't just any ordinary nano-tech: it's Phalanx. In Marvel lore, Phalanx are a cybernetic species that go up against the X-Men and other heroes. They use their techno-organic lifeforms to infect other species and create a hivemind. Whether this has any larger implications remains to be seen, but it's likely more of a fun way to explain things to fans using established material from the ...

Marvel's Wolverine has an option that lets you control the speed of the game, allowing for hyper-cinematic slow-motion action. Insomniac Games has created an expansive accessibility menu for Marvel's Wolverine, and in it, there's an option to control game speed. You can map this to any button you want on your controller, allowing you to toggle between normal speed and whatever secondary speed you want. One player chose to map this to their D-pad, allowing them to slow the game down to 30%, creating a slow-motion effect. This allows you to have more control over how the action is presented in the game and create more cinematic moments, letting a splash of blood slowly wash across the screen or have Wolverine drill his claws into an enemy before ramping the speed back up. I button mapped the Game speed to 30% on left D Pad and DAWG…..THIS SHIT A MOVIE!!! 😭👏🏾🔥 #wolverineps5 pic.twitter.com/dZgkOhE7dX — ZANI (@thegreatestzani) September 15, 2026 It's very Zack S...

PopCap's popular, long-running PvE video game series Plants vs. Zombies is getting the tabletop board game treatment, courtesy of Mantic Games. The project is set to launch on Kickstarter on October 14. Mantic, who has previously adapted numerous IPs to tabletop including Worms, Halo, Hellboy, The Walking Dead, and Invincible, describes the adaptation as "a fast-paced co-op tabletop game that captures the comedy and chaos of the series." It's for 1-4 players (just like the video games) in which "players work together to overcome a series of increasingly challenging levels, each featuring unique setups, objectives, and Zombie hordes to defeat. It'll be a card-based game where cards have unique effects when played. There will be Plant cards, with examples given of firing off the Peashooter plants or exploding Cherry Bombs. These will be joined by Tool cards like a shovel that can reorganize your garden's defenses or a lawnmower that can cut down a lane of ...

Wolverine actor Liam McIntyre has seen what fans are saying about him and Insomniac's latest superhero game, but it's no skin off his nose. Marvel’s Wolverine is out in the wild for many players worldwide, and opinions have been strong, to say the least. Discourse around the game has been unavoidable over the last month, with a vocal swath of players taking issue with Insomniac’s art direction, character design, and gameplay segments that were shown off by the media and early reviews. One of the core topics of the Wolverine debate is actor Liam McIntyre, who plays the game’s titular character. Some fans don’t believe he bears a close enough resemblance to the iconic mutant, while others feel that Insomniac’s face scans and art style didn’t do his visage justice. McIntyre has been excitedly posting about his role as Wolverine ever since his involvement was first announced, and some players have just now realized that he’s been seeing what they’re saying about him on social me...
