Sadly, that teaser and its subsequent promotional materials have done little to illuminate the plot or gameplay elements of Mass Effect 4, so all audiences have to subsist on is speculation. Details like the N7 armor and inclusion of Liara indicate that the game will be a direct continuation of the Shepard saga, unlike something like Mass Effect Andromeda, which is more of a spin-off. But there are other aspects of the promotional materials, specifically the Angara character model shown in the Mudskipper concept art, that suggest Mass Effect 4 will take place after the events of Andromeda. With this in mind, the return of some legacy characters is more likely than others.

The driving force behind Kingpin being part of Spider-Man 4 comes from the fact that both Peter Parker and Matt Murdock are not only based in New York, but when they are on their own adventures, tend to stay in their own neighborhoods. These street level adventures are perfect for stories that involve a villain that’s not from some distant planet, but also from the streets of the most famous city in the world. There’s an added bonus that while Kingpin has long been an iconic Daredevil villain, he’s also made more than his fair share of appearances in Spider-Man comics.

This is an incredibly ambitious change for the Civilization franchise, and it’s proven to be a divisive one. But Firaxis might not be done with Civilization 7‘s Age system just yet. Mere days after Civilization 7‘s early access release in February, dataminers found files that referenced a mysterious “Atomic Age.” Firaxis hasn’t confirmed any plans to introduce a fourth Age just yet, but it has teased that there’s a lot in store for Civ 7‘s future, and there are plenty of ways a fourth Age could expand and evolve Civilization 7‘s gameplay.

Adi Shankar lives and dies by that same unironic sense of coolness. He’s a remarkable rock star producer who seems to kick in the door of every video game company to demand the reins of all his favorite stuff. He has, though far from singlehandedly, cemented prestige animated series as the ideal medium for video game adaptations. Shankar’s Castlevania set the tone, but Devil May Cry presents a far more fascinating test of his format.
