  When Robert Pattinson’s first outing as the Dark Knight made its way into theaters, fans and critics were calling it the best Batman movie since, well, The Dark Knight.

  It's official, Diablo 5 is on the way. It's going to take a few years to get here, but another chapter in the hellish action RPG series is on the horizon, and this one is going back to procedurally generated areas, rather than the open-world design of Diablo 4.During BlizzCon 2026, a panel on the design of Diablo 5 reveals a few titbits about the upcoming sequel.

• Resident Evil Movies Were On Ice Until Zach Cregger Came Along

  14-09-2026 16:25 via gamespot.com
  
  On paper, Zach Cregger directing a Resident Evil movie sounds like a smart move. The director has earned critical acclaim for his work on spooky flicks like Barbarian and Weapons, while Resident Evil is experiencing a resurgence thanks to several years of hit games. But that's a pairing that almost never came to be, as after the dismal box office performance of 2021's Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City, movie distributor Constantin Films--who own the film rights to Resident Evil-- wante

• Zack Snyder says he never wanted to make "amusement park" movies like Marvel, as he'd "rather just talk about the mythology" of superheroes

  14-09-2026 16:16 via gamesradar.com
  
  No matter how divided audiences might be about his latest film, The Last Photograph, the debate will pale in comparison to the golden era of Snyder fandom and his handling of the DC Extended Universe. Beginning with Man of Steel and ending with his own cut of Justice League, his time with Batman and Superman, whether loved or loathed, was exactly what he was aiming for, and a far cry from the bright and snappier world we got with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Looking back, though, Snyder reveal

  Blizzard is making enormous changes to the ever-divisive Sombra in Overwatch Season 5, grabbing her from the DPS category and transforming her into a support hero instead, as game director Aaron Keller admits that she's been considered "anti-fun" for some time now. Sombra was added to Overwatch all the way back in 2016, and for 10 years she's been one of the most frustrating heroes to face. Between her hacking abilities that prevent enemies from using their skills, the fact that she can turn inv

• The GeForce RTX 5090 isn't a "gaming GPU" if AI companies are buying them by the pallet

  Nvidia still says the GeForce RTX 5090 brings "game-changing capabilities to gamers and creators" to this day, but that's if you can beat AI companies buying them by the pallet. Yes, despite now costing over $5,000, the best graphics card money can buy is more likely to end up in a data center than your rig, and I reckon that means it's no longer a gaming GPU.I'm not exactly shocked to see literal pallets full of RTX 5090 GPUs in photos shared by HKECP being used for AI servers (thanks, Videocar

  I know it seems heretical to talk about Christmas and 2026 Lego Advent Calendars already, but I'm increasingly worried that they're going to sell out quicker than ever this year.Typically, these kits disappear off shelves by (or, at the very latest, during) Black Friday at the end of November. It's why Prime Day at the beginning of October is such a good time to grab them; they enjoy a hearty discount and are still widely available, for the most part.

  Game Freak has announced a new laundry-based mobile game with Pokemon director Shigeru Ohmori leading this project. Obviously, Game Freak is best known for the Pokemon series, and until the recent release of Beast of Reincarnation, I wouldn't have been shocked if many people just didn't know the studio regularly releases games outside the franchise. For console releases, these usually manifest as smaller titles like HarmoKnight, Little Town Hero, and Tembo the Badass Elephant, but, as of late, t
