Today we learn that the RWBY anime RWBY: Ice Queendom will air in 2022 on Crunchyroll & Rooster Teeth. While some have always (erroneously) defined RWBY as an anime, this is the first time that the series is adapted into an actual anime series created by a Japanese studio. This shouldn’t be surprising considering that the original series has been known and even relatively popular in Japan in recent years....

Following its original YouTube Premium launch back in 2018, the Karate Kid follow-up that nobody asked for has fast become one of the biggest runaway hits on Netflix, and it’s easy to see why. Blending nostalgic ’80s action with some well-written lighthearted humor, with a dash of genuinely warm emotional poignancy thrown in for good measure, Cobra Kai is a terrific series brimming with cool characters and intriguing storylines. With the dust beginning to settle following the events of season 4, and while we all wait patiently for season 5 to make its way to the popular streaming service (there’s still no official release date locked in yet, but it’s allegedly coming later this year), we’re here to bring some good news to those hankering for more from the martial-arts action-comedy....

Warning: contains mild spoilers for season two of Sex Education, as well as, by necessity, lots of references to sex, sexuality and sexual acts from the start. Opening with an extended montage of our hero Otis (Asa Butterfield)—formerly unable to masturbate—joyfully wanking in an array of different places, to a choral rendition of The Divinyls “I Touch Myself” (sung by Belgian women’s choir Scala & Kolacny Brothers), Sex Education season 2 sets out its stall from the start....

I leapt back into Shadow of Mordor this week and was greeted with a terrifying bit of text: 13 hours in and 24 percent complete. Not an ideal point to pick up a save. The point at which I’m taught how to crouch long since past and forgotten, and no sign of an end in sight either. But it turns out - and I knew it would - that this is an ideal way to get back into Shadow of Mordor....

EA has revealed that Skate 4 is actually just called Skate, and it will be a free-to-play game, coming to PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. But we still don’t know if it will be a next-gen only game. Developer Full Circle has offered assurance that the game won’t be pay-to-win. And that micro-transactions will only be for cosmetic items and fully optional. There is a new video series, “The Board Room.” (It’s a clever pun, because the game entails skateboards....

Sons of the Forest is the direct sequel to Endnight’s well-received The Forest (which got its version 1.0 release in 2018 after four years in early access), a game that combined the survival genre’s penchant for scavenging and crafting with a genuinely unnerving horror element as protagonist Eric Leblanc searched the titular, cannibal-infested forest for his son following a harrowing plane crash....

According to Sony’s senior EVP and CFO, Hiroki Totoki, the company hasn’t decided on the price of the PlayStation 5 just yet because of a few unknown factors.

Microsoft’s reluctance to talk numbers has led many to believe that Xbox Game Pass isn’t doing well. How can the company sustain a business model where brand new games launch day and date with their physical counterparts, yet cost only the price of a monthly subscription to play? Wouldn’t it be wiser to play Gears 5 for $1 instead of spending $60? Somehow the service is doing well as Microsoft’s executive VP of gaming, Phil Spencer, has stated that the service is doing well for the company....
