As a huge fan of the show, I noticed something really subtle with Jenna Ortega’s performance as Wednesday. It’s not something that’s shown off, but rather a quiet choice she makes during otherwise normal scenes. People are talking, things are happening, but Wednesday will just… stay completely still, with this unwavering stare. It’s almost unsettling, and it naturally draws your eye to her, even when other things are going on. It struck me how brilliantly she understood the character – barely blinking became this incredibly effective way to convey Wednesday’s unique, morbid personality. It’s a small thing, but it speaks volumes about her dedication to the role.

A significant update to Saros arrived on May 5th, shortly after its release. This update included improvements to accessibility and performance, such as new color choices, preview images, and better Depth of Field effects. Although this latest patch isn’t as large, it addresses several frustrating problems that players had been experiencing.

Here’s a guide to unlocking all the different suits in LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, and how to quickly switch between them so you can change up Batman’s look whenever you want!

The panel featured Boruto, Chocho, Shikadai, Inojin, and Himawari Uzumaki as they celebrated defeating Shinju Mamushi. The biggest reveal was that Himawari, now possessing Kurama’s power, has achieved a massive power boost, reaching Six Paths level, and her healing abilities now match Naruto’s peak during the Fourth Great Ninja War.

So, they’re basically rebuilding Assassin’s Creed Black Flag from the ground up! It’s called Black Flag Resynced, and the graphics are getting a huge overhaul thanks to the new Ubisoft Anvil engine. They’re adding things like realistic weather and ray tracing, which should make the Caribbean look incredible. The best part? It doesn’t seem like you’ll need a super powerful PC to run it. My older rig should be able to handle it when it launches on July 9th, and that’s awesome!

The one-year anniversary of the Switch 2 is almost here, but Nintendo hasn’t revealed much about its plans for the rest of 2026. We know that Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, Star Fox, and Splatoon Raiders will launch between May and July, and Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave is coming out sometime this year. There are also rumors of a Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake around the holidays. We should get a better look at what Nintendo has planned for the rest of the year during the next Nintendo Direct.

Let’s remember some great games that didn’t last as long as we’d hoped. Even though they faded from the spotlight, people still talk about them online and in articles, keeping their memory alive. Perhaps, someday, we’ll even see them make a comeback.

Early looks at 007 First Light, including trailers and gameplay, suggest it’s going to be a visually stunning game. IO Interactive recently detailed how the game will take full advantage of the PS5 Pro console. While some players were worried about performance after a preview in September 2025, IO Interactive has confirmed a smooth 60 frames per second, and even showed it off in a new gameplay video. The standard PS5 will also offer options: a ‘Performance’ mode for 60fps, or a ‘Quality’ mode for improved visuals at 30fps. However, the best way to play on PlayStation will be on the Pro console.

Xbox Game Pass subscribers learned about the first set of games coming this month on May 5th. Following its typical schedule, Microsoft has now announced the next group of games joining the service just two weeks later.

Currently, fans with the new Switch 2 can play Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, but there isn’t a brand new, main Zelda game available yet. The good news is the Switch 2 can play all previous Zelda games released on the original Switch. While we’re still waiting to see when a new Zelda game will come to the Switch 2, an upcoming game from Square Enix looks very similar to Zelda and might be a good substitute in the meantime.
