Spoilers follow for Netflix’s Wednesday Season 2, Part 2. Also, Season 2, Part 1. And Season 1.

It’s hard to pin the success of Netflix’s Wednesday on any particular element. Is it Jenna Ortega’s pitch-perfect central performance as Wednesday Addams? Nostalgia for the characters created by Charles Addams, the movies, or the TV show? It certainly could be the odd-couple pairing of Ortega’s dour Wednesday and her roommate at Nevermore Academy, the chipper Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers).

....Or maybe it’s that dance craze on TikTok, which repurposed a scene featuring Ortega’s COVID-fueled moves with audio of Lady Gaga’s “Bloody Mary” and helped the show explode into one of the most-watched Netflix series ever.

Magic: The Gathering is in a strange spot right now. With so many ‘Universes Beyond’ products, plus Secret Lairs for third-party IP mounting up, it’s becoming the Super Smash Bros. of card games, and that’s leading to some fun synergies.

As spotted by Wargamer, one Tyranid card from the Warhammer 40k Commander Decks has climbed some serious value in recent weeks thanks to a surprise team-up with, uh, Sonic the Hedgehog.

Winged Hive Tyrant, from the 40K Commander deck Tyranid Swarm, is a 4/4 with flying and haste, as well as text for ‘The Will of the Hive Mind’. It reads “Other creatures you control with counters on them have flying and haste.”

007 First Light is set to release for PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on March 27, 2026. It’s a new origin story for James Bond, so it stars a young version of the MI6 agent, before he becomes the slick professional who’s been a cinema mainstay for decades now. The game is developed by IO Interactive, the same team that made the Hitman: World of Assassination games. It’s available for preorder now in several editions. Read on to see what comes in each one.

007 First Light - Standard Edition

What Is 007 First Light?

Developer IO Interactive is billing 007: First Light as a “narrative action-adventure game.” You play as a young James Bond who’s a new recruit to the MI6 training program. He’s resourceful and talented, but also cocky and reckless — a more unseasoned Bond than we’ve seen in the movies.

As for the main mission, you’re “in pursuit of a rogue agent who’s always one step ahead.” That’s 009, who’s presumably the main villain. That pursuit sends you to lots of interesting and gorgeous locations around the world. In the trailers, we’ve seen mountainous, watery areas, as well as nightclubs, rooftops, and open-air plazas. It looks like you can drive cars and pilot boats.

You can play the levels stealthily, using gadgets to help get you where you need to be, or you can go in guns blazing — Bond famously has a license to kill, after all. This is no surprise, as the Hitman games famously allow players lots of freedom in how they complete the tasks. You can check out our 007 First Light hands-on preview for lots more info on it.

James Bond. Indiana Jones. Lara Croft. Nathan Drake. Each of these iconic globetrotters was inspired by the one created before them. Now that pattern comes full circle, with IO Interactive's 007 First Light channeling the action movie spirit of Naughty Dog's Uncharted series. But that circle forms a coin, much like the one IOI's other iconic leading man keeps in his pocket, with two distinct sides. Agent 47's DNA runs deep in the developers' new James Bond origin story, to the point that if the charismatic British spy himself sported a barcode on the back of his head, you'd likely scan it and find out he'd been engineered on the same production line. From what I've seen of 007 First Light so far, and from talking to the team at IOI, it's set to be an exciting blend of both Hitman's signature do-it-yourself gameplay and a brand of cinematic spectacle you'd hope for from one of film's most enduring series.

First Light is all about earning that famous number: 007. But before the number, there’s a name: James Bond. And behind that name lies another: Patrick Gibson. Casting for Britain’s most famous spy is always a hot topic, but the 30-year-old Gibson instantly looks and sounds the part, stepping into the shoes of the youngest Bond ever put to screen. At just 26, this version of Ian Fleming’s iconic hero is already confident and charming, but with a dash of brashness – a wrinkle of immaturity that’s not yet been ironed out. This isn’t the experienced, steely Bond that Daniel Craig most recently gave us, but one very much at the start of his career.

“I think first and foremost, this is the story of a young man who steps into a new world,” cinematic and narrative director Martin Emborg tells me. “He steps into this world of shadows and of his future. So it is meeting someone who has a brighter outlook on life, who's more positive, who's a more relatable young man. As the audience, we know a lot more about what he'll have to face in his future, and so we've built up a plot and an adventure that he has to go through that will mature him and take him some of the way towards the guy that we know, the seasoned 007.”

On His Majesty’s Secret Service

First Light is a story made for “the times we live in”, a phrase repeated throughout my visit to the Copenhagen studio by IOI’s CEO and First Light’s game director, Hakan Abrak. Not only is it the first time an official Bond story has had James working in the service of both King and country, but it’s a tale that explores both the positive and negative impacts of modern technology. You’ll learn all about how this benefits his arsenal of gadgets later, but for now, let’s focus on its threat to the world IO has built.

“It's the zeitgeist right now, right?” says Abrak about our attempts to wrangle and understand artificial intelligence. “Thinking about ‘How is that going to impact our lives? How is that going to impact our security?’ AI is certainly a part of the story. The information. What can you trust? And when you're making a game about espionage and working in the shadows, these things [combined with] the technological leaps we are experiencing, there's a lot of material there to work on.”

Just as we’re living in a world still getting to grips with the impact of artificial intelligence, First Light’s Bond is a young man still finding his feet as an agent and, indeed, ticking off many firsts of his own. IOI teased that this may well be where we see him sip his first shaken, but not stirred martini, and perhaps even the first time he’s had to take a life. But, as synonymous with alcohol and violence as he is, he’s also famed for the attention he garners from the women in his life. In terms of firsts in that department… Well, IOI confirms that such a lifestyle is well and truly underway.

“I think it would almost be kind of weirdly cool to say, well, this guy is celibate,” Emborg poses. “He is a very charming mid-to-late twenties guy. Obviously, yes, he has experience with the opposite sex, for sure. So he has this easy charm. I'm not sure he's necessarily super aware of it, though. It's not weaponised in the way that it is for an older Bond, who will use this for manipulation or to further his goals. In that way, he's more like a regular bloke.”

Regular blokes don’t tend to disguise themselves as chauffeurs in order to break into chess tournaments taking place at Slovakian chateaus as part of a mission to track down rogue colleagues, though. This is the setup for a very early task that establishes Bond’s mission to bring in the traitorous 009, and follows a tutorial at an MI6 training facility and a prologue mysteriously titled “The Iceland Incident.” This demonstration level, which you can see play out in the most recent State of Play broadcast, shows us the two distinct sides to First Light’s gameplay cadence. In a story of firsts for the agent in training, some aspects, especially in this demo’s opening half, will be familiar to those experienced in IO's masterful World of Assassination.

“He doesn't necessarily walk around with coins and throw them”, Abrak explains. “Bond is a lot more impulsive. It's a much more front-footed experience, so he might just grab something to use for distraction. Bond is more expressive and more charming, so maybe he can whisper something to distract the enemies to a certain place that he wants them to go to.”

When denied entry to the chateau, such a possibility may present itself, as there are a number of different opportunities hidden around for you to uncover. I’m shown an example where Bond sneaks past some guards in order to steal a lighter. He uses it to set some nearby leaves on fire, creating a distraction which relocates a nearby guard, allowing James to clamber up to an open window unseen. Another way, I’m told, would be to simply pickpocket an invitation from a guest.

“There are several different routes to do that”, Abrak continues. “Whether you want to use your gadgetry or fisticuffs, or you want to use stealth or use your instincts and your charm to get to where you want to go. I think this combination of action and some of the elements from Hitman is probably the most complex game we've done.”

Of course, for all of its incredibly intelligent systemic and level design, Hitman has always been very silly. That tone translates directly into Bond. These two series share a love of quippy one-liners and an abundance of comical deaths, albeit with James delivering them with a much more knowing wink, seemingly always playing to an audience, rather than 47's bone-dry wit. And where IO's assassin always goes unseen, Bond can't help but draw attention. Everyone’s glance lingers a couple of seconds longer than standard as he passes. But while the two agents have differing approaches, both provide fuel for comedy. As Bond makes his way through the aforementioned Slovakian chateau, maids mutter about how they’d love to leave a second mint on his pillow, and a smarmy man comments on his appearance, misidentifying him as a famous model. James will occasionally fire back, too, using his tongue to get himself out of precarious situations.

“I think we did that with Agent 47, obviously, but he's the Grim Reaper”, states Emborg. “He doesn't say a lot to some extent. It's refreshing to write someone like Bond after having worked on 47.” This newfound license to pun can also lead to some excruciating (yet, I concede, still funny) moments. When posing as a journalist searching for his lost camera, James utters the line, “Photography can be such a negative experience”. If he weren’t so charming, you’d roll your eyes so hard you’d sever your optic nerve.

This personable nature also directly feeds into gameplay and how disguises play less of an essential part in 007 First Light compared to Hitman. Bond has no problem walking up to a stranger and declaring who he is so that he may disarm through charm, and so you can avoid confrontation by bluffing guards. This costs Focus, a resource that depletes a yellow meter on the right of the screen. It’s a powerful and costly skill that should be used sparingly, but Focus can be refilled by completing certain tasks, such as containing a violent situation by taking out everyone you’ve accidentally aggravated.

Two other resources, battery and chemicals, can be found on the face of your Omega wristwatch, located at the bottom left of the UI. These power your gadgets, a collection of which James steadily accumulates across the campaign, as well as the compulsory Q-watch itself. The timekeeping device is so much more than just that, though, with a plethora of abilities held in its hands. These include being able to scan the environment for conversations to eavesdrop on (and the corresponding opportunities that unlock from listening to them), as well as being able to remotely hack electronics in order to cause distractions or explosions — it truly takes the watch from Watch Dogs in this regard.

Then there are optional gadgets, of which you can take three into the field with you. These range from standard stealth fare, such as smoke bombs that aid in a quick escape, to much more high-tech tools, like a handy laser that can help you get up to all sorts of mischief. “It can open certain obstacles, but it can also shoot chandeliers down,” explains Abrak. “It can also blind people, it can disarm people. It's a pretty cool gadget.” He also tells me that we “very well may be able to” walk around Q Branch in between missions to inspect the MI6 quartermaster’s latest inventions for ourselves — a fantasy ingrained into every Bond fan’s mind.

Licence to Kill

There’ll be no shortage of flexibility when it comes to the campaign’s open areas, then, with the Hitman pedigree shining through – just with the red tie swapped for a black tie aesthetic. But where front-footed combat has always felt like a fallback in the World of Assassination, here it's presented as a necessity, especially in First Light's more guided encounters. Fast-forward to the end of the demo’s chess infiltration mission, following something presumably much more explosive than a checkmate, and Bond is behind the wheel of a vintage Aston Martin. It’s a moment tailored specifically for that James Bond fantasy and, even without getting to play it myself, I found myself exhilarated by the car chase that follows (even if it does slightly outstay its welcome – it’s a long chase). It may not reach the breathtaking heights found in the non-stop chaos of Uncharted 4’s famed Moroccan jeep scene, but it does thrillingly move us to the chapter’s next big action moment.

Pursuing the runaway 009, James is taken to an airfield housing a fully armed militia. As soon as he steps into the area, he’s given the crucial “Licence to Kill,” which allows him to unholster his firearm and let loose. IO doesn’t want Bond to be able to act like a killing machine in every scenario, so deadly force will only be granted when the situation calls for it. The combat itself looks slick, but packing a punch — symbolic of 007 himself, a blunt force dressed in a sharp suit. He flicks shotguns up with his feet into his hands before unloading the cartridges; charges at enemies like a linebacker, sending them to the floor with a thud; and drills bullets into any nearby gas canisters to engulf as much of the base in flames as possible. It’s an impressive sequence that further showcases a malleability in encounter design, both at deliberate and breakneck speeds.

Bond is more nimble than the relatively stiff Agent 47 ever has been, able to chuck empty rifles at the heads of his enemies and quickly dash between cover in one smooth movement. In a later mission in which Bond is tasked with crashing a Kensington gala, even more creativity is on display, such as pool balls being lobbed from a table and into someone’s skull, and doors being kicked in and cannoning into an unsuspecting guard behind them. This promise of being able to combine James’ raw power, nifty gadgets, and environments full of opportunity looks tremendously exciting.

Back in Slovakia, this experimentation is perhaps best showcased once Bond boards the plane taking off from the aforementioned airfield. After fist-fighting your way across the wing and down into the hull, you’re handed the controls to the plane, allowing you to sharply bank it left or right. This throws enemies inside the aircraft off balance, but also turns the cargo into weapons. Two-tonne crates slam into soldiers, presumably breaking over half of their bones in the process. It’s these one-off mechanics that help build the cinematic whole, making individual action scenes truly feel like big moments. It’s reminiscent of the original Call of Duty: Modern Warfare — its globe-trotting nature, of course, owing a debt to Bond — in the way it grants you a distinct way to play for just one level, such as controlling an AC-130 gunship. It’s moments like these that create missions that stick long in the memory.

This stretch of car chase, gunfight, and sky-high stuntwork is breaking new ground for IO. A studio that has typically found joy in the quiet and methodical is having to shift gears considerably, flexing action-adventure muscles that are long rested or, in some instances, not trained at all. Even the slick action of Kane and Lynch was shrouded in a morose cloud, with smiles coming at a premium. Here, the Danish developers have had to flick through the original pulpy fiction to find an altogether more swashbuckling tone. “The [original James Bond] books were definitely kind of the touchstone for us in terms of wanting to do our own thing”, Emborg reveals. “We did not want to synthesize and go, ‘Oh, we are going to cherry-pick this from this and this from this’. It was like, who is this character, and how do we build him up to suit the story that we want to tell?”

This structure of blending the curated with the creative is reminiscent of last year's Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, somewhat of an irony considering Steven Spielberg owes much of his archaeologist creation to Bond — the Raiders of the Lost Ark director even wanted to helm a 007 movie before George Lucas pitched “The Adventures of Indiana Smith” to him. Without Indy, there'd be no Tomb Raider and, in turn, no Uncharted. While the team at IO is reluctant to pinpoint specific inspirations outside of the 007 canon, it wouldn't feel a stretch to imagine Nathan Drake being subbed in for the second half of James’ Slovakian sojourn as explosive red barrels and parachuteless free-falls punctuate the sequence.

Hitman’s level design has always been gameplay-informed. The larger narratives were never what drove its many iconic maps. With 007 First Light, IO has had to work a little differently, making sure that stories – both overarching and small-scale – are constantly being woven in and out of Bond’s actions. That necessitated a more collaborative approach from the get-go when it came to designing the content and flow of its missions. “All the levels started in a small group where we had level designers, we had art directors, and we had narrative [staff working together]”, reveals Emborg. “It was really having your big story broken into segments, which neatly fit into obvious levels. What's going on in this level? What are the themes we're dealing with? And having that character-driven approach to not only story, but to level design as well.”

While it's far too early to say if that approach has been a complete success, the signs are very promising. From the glimpses of two missions we’ve seen, there seems to be a suitable mix of both spyplay and action, all of which seems to drive forward a story, and it will be intriguing to see what that balance will end up looking like across the whole of what’s described to me as a “beefy” First Light campaign. That lure of Hitman-like social stealth and Uncharted-scented set pieces is certainly exciting, but most crucially of all, it all feels very distinctly “Bond”.

From Copenhagen with Love

If there was anything above all else that I learned from my day in Denmark, it is that there’s a distinct reverence for the legacy of 007 at IO, and the desire to make the first truly original game in the spy’s canon as authentic, yet fresh, as possible. A decade or so ago, there was a time when a “cinematic game” was thought of as something new and exciting, but now it feels like every single-player AAA venture is steeped in incredibly detailed cutscenes and narratives that elegantly weave in and out of gameplay. Creating something unseen in this genre is getting increasingly harder to achieve. Instead of treading that path, IO is looking to the source – both novels and films – and stamping its own brand of agent action onto it.

The hallmarks are there, from small details like the scar Bond sports on his cheek as described in the books, to louder, much more obvious nods, such as his range of Jaguar and Aston Martin cars. Its world and characters are dripping with sartorial style, dressed in fine tailoring and expensive Omega timepieces. This level of licensing could so easily feel superficial, but these items of luxury are so ingrained in the world of Ian Fleming’s creation that it would feel even more hollow to be without them.

Of course, no Bond story is complete without a villain. Very little has been revealed in regards to their identity at this point, or even how many of them we’ll be dealing with. The only clue I’ve seen at this stage is a picture of a mysterious figure wearing an emotionless Eyes Wide Shut-like golden mask. With most of James’ nemesis’ leaning towards the neurotic as opposed to the erotic, I’ll assume this is merely a passing reference, rather than a full-blown Kubrick crossover.

Then there's the 007 sound. First Light is described as a very “music-forward” game by audio director Dominic Vega, and it certainly sounds that way. The score dips in and out in classic Bond fashion, stabbing scenes with sudden strings but also blending them with jazz swing and synthesised beats that reflect both James’ legacy and future. Composed by The Flight, who have had a hand in the soundtracks for Horizon: Forbidden West, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, and Alien: Isolation, it appears to be using those classic Barry and Arnold refrains to great effect. Oh, and then there’s the matter of a theme song, which, although not directly confirmed by IO, was very heavily hinted to exist by Abrak and the team. It simply wouldn't be a Bond adventure without one, would it? As for who has performed it? Place your bets now.

If you can’t tell by now, I’m incredibly excited by the prospect of 007 First Light. It’s shaping up to be exactly what I thought and wanted it to be when IO first announced its partnership with the license. The Hitman DNA that I, and so many others, love so much is there — all the way down to mission briefings presented in a very World of Assassination way, just with Moneypenny taking over mic duties from Diana — but with that distinct Bond iconography that’s kept the series so beloved for over seven decades.

While I'm pleased to see elements of Naughty Dog's industry-shaping series seeping in here, I'm even more glad to see that First Light isn't just “Uncharted but Bond”. IO Interactive has given us some of the most compelling, systemically engaging gameplay of the past decade, and to see that there's plenty of Hitman agency here is more than enticing. I’m left very hopeful, and while we remain in the dark as to what shape Denis Villeneuve’s upcoming Bond film will take, First Light is looking like a very bright prospect for the future of Britain’s most famous spying export.

When it comes to casting, arguably no role in the world garners more attention than that of James Bond. Connery, Brosnan, Craig, each of us has our favourite version of the iconic British spy. Now, following a period of (now confirmed to be successful) internet sleuth work, we have a new face to add to the canon: Patrick Gibson.

007 First Light is the new Bond adventure from Hitman developer IO Interactive, and features a brand-new origin story for the MI6 agent. 30-year-old Gibson will portray the youngest on-screen 007 to date, who is only 26 at the beginning of this story. The Irish actor is by no means a complete unknown, having appeared in TV shows Dexter: Original Sin, Shadow and Bone, and The OA, but is not the superstar casting some might expect when it comes to one of the most enduring roles in all movies.

007 First Light is the upcoming action-adventure from Danish developer IO Interactive, the studio behind the famed stealth series Hitman. But just how were the James Bond video game rights secured? Well, it turns out with a little help from a certain Hitman’s body and a very famous face.

IOI CEO and First Light game director, Hakan Abrak, revealed to me at a recent studio visit that the head of the most recent screen Bond, Daniel Craig, was sculpted onto the torso of Agent 47 and dropped into the World of Assassination.

“We actually did put Daniel Craig in there”, Abrak revealed. “We just modeled his head and put it in instead of Agent 47, just for demo purposes, giving an impression of what these living, breathing spaces mean in an IO game. And if you are acquainted with the franchise, there is a level called Sapienza with the virus in the caves underneath the compound. So we showed some things off there and, yeah, it was well received.”

The sun-soaked streets of Sapienza provide the exact sort of beachy Italian relaxation spot that you can imagine Bond lying low in, but in Hitman’s world, it's laced with deadly opportunity — a sentiment IO wanted to convey in this specific demonstration to the license holders at MGM and Eon.

“It was just for demo purposes, right?” Abrak continued. “I think what they saw in us and what we are also conveying is our angle would be to try to deliver a 360 experience where it's not necessarily about only shooting and cut scenes — there's certainly that in our game as well — but it's also being able to explore the part of the Bond fantasy where he is in social spaces where he is using not only his fisticuffs, but also his charms and bluff and figuring out different ways in those social spaces to overcome the obstacles or get what he wants. How would a charming Bond fare in a situation like this where he doesn't have to necessarily resort to violence?”

Sapienza has become one of the most beloved Hitman maps ever since its 2016 introduction, and you can see why it was picked by IO as the perfect example of its brand of social stealth gameplay. Blunt violence is, of course, an option, but much more Bond-like mission stories are available too, such as gatecrashing a romantic rendezvous involving one of the targets and her golf coach lover — the sort of scenario James could easily find himself tied up in.

But First Light was always going to be a Bond origin story, so, while it was all fun and games sticking Craig’s face onto 47’s, the British actor was never a genuine option to play IO’s 007. Instead, the studio has gone much younger, selecting Patrick Gibson to portray its 26-year-old James.

“We've only made original worlds and characters before, so this is our first time working on something else”, Abrak explains. “So it was very important for us that we could put our creative fingerprints on this as well. So we weren't interested in a gamification of a movie or maybe where it's about technical prowess only, like pushing the pixels on Pierce Brosnan, for example, or just taking some bespoke scenes from a movie and realizing them in gaming.”

It was very, very important for us that this was built from the ground up as a game for gamers, but that really, really felt like a genuine Bond experience. And also exploring a space that hasn't been explored before, where it's not necessarily about just starting from day one with this super-experienced agent that knows exactly from the start of the game how he wants his drinks or how he's walking around in a tuxedo. But part of the experience is that this young man is learning the ropes and is being faced with the world of espionage and becoming throughout this journey. So I thought that was very interesting to explore.”

A short time into developing 007 First Light, something happened that meant parts of James Bond’s next adventure needed to be rewritten. No, it wasn’t anything going down internally at the studio that led to such a change, but something entirely more global: the death of Queen Elizabeth II of England.

The news was huge, but the impact on the script, not so much. It mainly revolved around instances of characters having to refer to protecting both King and country rather than Queen, and Bond being on His Majesty’s Secret Service rather than her.

“It was fairly small, it did feel significant,” revealed Martin Emborg, First Light’s narrative director. "It wasn't like going in and going like, delete, delete, delete. It did feel, and we knew it obviously when we recorded it, that it was kind of a big deal that it's like His Majesty's Secret Service. It's a new world."

So new, in fact, that it’s the first time a 007 story has taken place during the reign of a male British monarch, with Ian Fleming’s original novels having been written mere months after Queen Elizabeth II’s 1952 coronation, and Daniel Craig’s final Bond film, No Time to Die, having been released a year before her passing. It’s a new world for Britain’s most famous spy, but not one that felt too daunting for IO Interactive to enter.

“It doesn’t feel weird”, replied Emborg. “I feel a great sense of kind of reverence for it. This is something that's been going on for way beyond our lifetimes, and it's inspired generations. So yeah, it feels like you get to play in a sandbox that is just way bigger than you.”

To say MindsEye suffered from a rocky launch would be a bit of an understatement. A release plagued by a poor critical reception, refunds to players who purchased it, and subsequent layoffs, developer Build a Rocket Boy’s debut game garnered its fair share of negative headlines.

But there was once a time when there was something to be excited about when it came to MindsEye, so much so that IOI Partners — the publishing arm of Hitman and 007 First Light studio IO Interactive — saw enough promise in it to distribute the game.

“The initial talks we had with those guys were to support them”, Hakan Abrak, CEO of IOI, told IGN. “We thought they had some great ideas and a great world in the background that they were building, and hopefully they'll get the opportunity to show more of that in the future. And we just wanted to help them distribute the game.”

At some point along the road, though, the development of MindsEye clearly did not go exactly to plan, and ultimately ended in that negativity-laced launch. For IOI Partners, it obviously isn’t what it wanted to see happen after attaching itself to the Leslie Benzies-helmed project.

“Well, that was definitely tough, right?”, Abrak confirmed. “It was a tough reception. It wasn't what they hoped for, and also what we didn't hope for at IOI Partners. They're working hard on turning that around to regain the trust of the gamers out there, and they have tons of potential and content they're working on. So hopefully they'll succeed with that in the future.”

Soon after MindsEye launched, BARB said it was “heartbroken” over the issues players had faced with the game, and promised to release a series of patches to fix the significant performance problems, glitches, and AI behavior bugs. Rollout of these patches has begun.

Story-driven action adventure game MindsEye was initially designed to be a part of Everywhere, the ‘Roblox for adults’ creation platform led by former Grand Theft Auto design chief Leslie Benzies. BARB eventually switched to focus on MindsEye, but it has so-far failed to do the business for the company.

In July, BARB sources told IGN that Benzies finally addressed staff following the release of MindsEye in a brief video call. According to two people present who asked not to be named in order to protect their careers, Benzies insisted BARB would bounce back and relaunch MindsEye, blaming the studio and the game’s struggles on internal and external saboteurs, among other things.

The future of MindsEye and Build a Rocket Boy remains uncertain. But what about IOI Partners and its appetite to publish more games not made inside the Danish studio’s walls? IOI Interactive will self-publish the upcoming James Bond adventure 007 First Light, but can we expect more partnerships along the lines of the one made with MindsEye, or has this launch left a bad taste in the mouth?

“So, IO Interactive will publish our own games internally,” Abrak confirmed. “IOI Partners? That remains to be seen.”

I was just a kid when I first saw Wicked live. The idea of going to a theater and watching a musical didn't seem that appealing to me at first. I'd grown up watching animated Disney movies and I just didn't think real live people would be able to capture the same sort of magic that I'd seen on the screen. I was obviously very wrong and was absolutely blown away by what I saw. The power and emotion behind each song and performance really stuck with me, and everything I thought I knew about The Wizard of Oz was shattered that day. Since that first musical experience, I've found myself going to the theater at least once a year to catch a Broadway show, and it's largely thanks to Wicked.

Now as an adult, I was surprised once again how the film adaptation was able to rekindle that feeling of awe I first got from the musical. Wicked: Part 1 brought that show to life in a way stage props never could and left me wanting more. I was even pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed Arianna Grande's performance as Glinda. With Wicked: For Good hitting theaters this November, I'm excited to get another dose of that same childhood magic once again. And thanks to the latest LEGO collaboration, I got a chance to dive into the franchise even earlier in a way I didn't expect.

Before moving on to the flower vase and butterfly part of the build (which was my favorite part), you actually need to finish building out the main book itself. I was pleasantly surprised at how enjoyable this part was, as you complete the scene's frame on the inside of the book and add the finishing touches. Building and placing the spine on the back of the book gives off the feeling of actually binding the book yourself. The one thing I struggled with during this part of the build was placing the sticker right where I wanted, but if you have steady hands it shouldn't be too much of an issue. Then the final step of adding the golden letters on the outside of the book is just the cherry on top before the most interesting part begins.

At this point in the build you may think that you've almost completed a full bookend – but you still have a long way to go. While it's true that you now have something functional that can hold up some books, you still have a lot of build left and it's, in my opinion, the best part of the whole experience. You start this portion of the set by putting together the foundation of the flower vase and the stacked books. This part isn't overly complicated, but the way it perfectly fits into elements you built in in the very first steps is really cool. It snaps right in place and you can start to see how the final pieces are going to connect.

Both the flower vase and butterfly felt like little builds on their own, which I found to be very enjoyable. LEGO has really mastered the art of turning plastic bricks into flowers and it's not hard to see why an entire set of just flora would be a delight to put together. I was equally impressed at how the pieces of the butterfly came together. While some of the wing pieces were unique, the base of the actual butterfly is really just common bricks i've used in some previous builds. As final touches, I thought these elements were a great addition and help to justify some of the overall cost of the whole set.

The 007 First Light State of Play is just moments away from giving players a nice, long look at how developer IO Interactive will bring the next James Bond video game to life.

The Hitman studio and Sony have promised that today’s September 2025 State of Play presentation will take the form of a 30-minute gameplay deep dive. It will primarily focus on Bond’s first mission with MI6, with a PlayStation.Blog post teasing “high-speed car chases and on-foot stealth sequences and shootouts” as some of the highlights.

While the bulk of the 007 First Light presentation will put the next James Bond video game under a microscope, IGN will still be here to collect all of the highlights. Whether you can’t watch the broadcast or are tuning in late, you can see everything announced at the 007 First Light State of Play below.

007 First Light Takes Aim With March 2026 Release Date

007 First Light, IO Interactive's upcoming James Bond game, is set to release March 27, 2026 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X | S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC. https://t.co/vwCLNHI70v pic.twitter.com/AjmnsXOoih

— IGN (@IGN) September 3, 2025

IO capped off its State of Play presentation with a 007 First Light release date of March 27, 2026. It's an update to the previously announced 2026 window that puts the new 007 video game out in a little more than six months. Eager fans can pick it up on PC, Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, and Xbox when its release date arrives.

Patrick Gibson Confirms He Is Playing James Bond in 007 First Light

After much speculation from fans, Dexter: Original Sin actor Patrick Gibson has finally confirmed that he is playing James Bond in IO’s 007 First Light. The star of the next James Bond video game made a surprise appearance during today's State of Play to confirm his role while also sharing details about some of the other faces fans will run into. This includes the news that Lennie James is playing Greenway, Priyanga Burford is playing M, Alastair Mackenzie is playing Q, Kiera Lester is playing Moneypenny, and Noémie Nakai is playing Ms. Roth.

James Bond Will Have to Be Resourceful if He Wants to Catch 009

007 First Light is made by the team behind the Hitman series, and that was made very clear during today’s State of Play. While tailing a suspicious bellhop, James Bond can be seen using his surroundings to sneak past security.

It means players will find themselves climbing up and around buildings, sneaking through flowers, distracting guards with small fires, and more in order to succeed in their mission. Gadgets, including a smoke device and a high-tech watch scanner, can also provide aid during missions, with IO encouraging players to try everything from classic stealth to James Bond's silver tongue when navigating tricky areas.

Getting Behind the Wheel as 007

James Bond is no stranger to a blood-pumping car chase. During today’s State of Play, IO revealed a closer look at how it is aiming to bring some of the franchise’s thrilling vehicle action to 007 First Light. The car chase segment shows that players can control the MI6 recruit to dodge obstacles and launch into cinematic stunts when pursuing a target.

NetEase Games has released the first trailer for Marvel Rivals Season 4: Heart of the Dragon, revealing a first official look at two new heroes, Daredevil and Angela, as well as a release date for the new PlayStation 4 (PS4) port.

The minute-and-a-half cinematic video sees Matt Murdock go head-to-head against the winged Asgardian while confirming rumors that the popular comic book hero shooter would soon come to PS4. It also comes with a release date of September 12, 2025, meaning at least some of the new content featured in today’s trailer is only a little more than a week from its official launch.

“The Timestream Entanglement has drawn the Seven Capitals together, forming the Heart of Heaven,” an official description from NetEase says. “After Knull’s fall, Hela is imprisoned in the An'Hay-Zhidi, where Dizang—Devil of the Eighth City—dares her to atone for her sins. But Angela will not forgive her betrayal. She arrives in the Heart of Heaven demanding Hela be handed over, yet its guardian refuses to surrender someone under his protection. Justice will be served and a debt will be paid.

“But while they fight, an even greater danger stirs. Doctor Doom seeks to steal the Chronal Chi of the slumbering dragon Shou-Lao, threatening to unravel the fate of the Heavens themselves.”

A PS4 version of Marvel Rivals has been rumored for a while, so it didn’t take long for players to start poking fun at what a last-gen version of the chaotic multiplayer game might look like. NetEase has yet to reveal Marvel Rivals PS4 gameplay, but with Season 4’s release date just days away, it won’t be much longer before we have a better look.

As for Daredevil and Angela, NetEase refrained from including any gameplay for its new heroes in today’s reveal trailer. It’s also unclear which hero classes each will fall into, though we wouldn’t be surprised to see Angela as a Vanguard and Daredevil as a Duelist.

Marvel Rivals Season 4 is nearly upon us, which means Season 3 will soon be winding down. The third season of NetEase’s hero shooter introduced new heroes Blade and Jean Grey/Phoenix while also bringing along a selection of Symbiote-themed skins as its story continues.

We’ll have to wait to see exactly when and how everything included in Season 4 will arrive, so in the meantime, be sure to check out how the cast of The Fantastic Four: First Steps reacted to Invisible Woman’s infamous Malice skin. You can also read about how NetEase used Season 3.5 to deal with some of the more toxic members of its community.

Amazon’s Tomb Raider series will start shooting in 2026, with Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner confirmed to play Lara Croft.

Turner is best-known for her role as Sansa Stark in Game of Thrones, though she has also played Jean Grey in X-Men: Dark Phoenix and X-Men: Apocalypse.

Production kicks off in January nearly two years after the series was given the thumbs up at Prime Video. Fleabag’s Phoebe Waller-Bridge is creator, writer, and executive producer on the series. Variety reported that Chad Hodge has signed on as co-showrunner, with Jonathan van Tulleken in place as director and executive producer.

Disney Lorcana goes from strength to strength, and Fabled – its ninth set since launch – is closer than ever.

The new set introduces a whole host of new cards, brings A Goofy Movie into the card game, and finally adds fan-favorite Darkwing Duck.

With the set enjoying a pre-release already, we’re just days away from its full debut, so here’s everything you can find on store shelves and what you should look out for.

Fabled Collection Starter Set

James Gunn has announced his Superman follow up, Man of Tomorrow.

The movie is due out July 9, 2027, Gunn revealed in a tweet. It includes an image drawn by Chief Creative Officer of DC Comics Jim Lee, showing Superman alongside Lex Luthor, who's wearing a suit of power armor.

Specifically, it looks like Luthor's Anti-Superman suit, hence the green Kryptonite. Superman, seemingly unbothered, is leaning playfully on Luthor while holding a screwdriver. Are the bitter enemies we saw in Superman now friends in Man of Tomorrow?

— James Gunn (@JamesGunn) September 3, 2025

Superman actor David Corenswet also took to social media to post a different image, below. This one was drawn by DC Comics' artist Jorge Jiménez.

And, not wanting to be left out of the fun, Lex actor Nicholas Hoult posting an image of his own, drawn by Mitch Gerads. This one shows Superman fighting Lex Luthor, which suggests the pair will be at odds for at least part of Man of Tomorrow.

So, we know David Corenswet and Nicholas Hoult will reprise their roles as Superman and Lex Luthor respectively in Man of Tomorrow, but that's pretty much it. Last month, DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn revealed the 'Superman Saga’ while discussing his ongoing work on the follow-up to this summer’s Superman. While promoting Peacemaker Season 2, which follows the events of Superman as part of the newly established DC Universe, Gunn told The Hollywood Reporter that he’s already finished the treatment for “the next story in what I’ll call the ‘Superman Saga.’”

“The treatment is done, which means a very, very worked out treatment," he continued. "I’m working on that and hopefully going into production on that not too far away from today.”

Now we know this movie is called Man of Tomorrow.

Gunn has spoken in the past about his next movie, teasing: "... is it a straight-up Superman sequel? I would not say necessarily."

Here’s what’s confirmed. In film, DC Studios has Supergirl and Clayface coming out in 2026, and the next Wonder Woman at some point after. The Batman II, from Matt Reeves’ self-contained ‘Batman Epic Crime Saga,’ begins shooting next spring, with a release date set for December 2027. Gunn has also talked about a Sgt. Rock adaptation, and a Justice League team up starring Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. In February, Gunn and co-DC Studios CEO Peter Safran confirmed The Brave and the Bold will introduce a new Batman into the DCU, ruling out current Batman actor Robert Pattinson in the process. But there's no release window for that yet.

In TV, the Batman Epic Crime Saga looks set for The Penguin Season 2, with DCU entry Peacemaker Season 2 out soon and a Lanterns series due in 2026. Gunn is reportedly considering TV spinoffs for characters such as Mister Terrific and Jimmy Olsen following their well-received supporting roles in Superman.

To say Call of Duty is an important piece of video game history would be an understatement. It’s hard to think of first-person shooters (or action games in general) without mentioning this series, which has become one of the most successful franchises ever after revolutionizing single-player campaigns and online battles.

For decades, CoD has dominated the multiplayer scene. Apart from creating iconic characters like Captain Price and Alex Mason, the series has also introduced unexpected figures to their ranks, like Spawn, Snoop Dogg, and Lionel Messi. With Black Ops 7 on the horizon, you might want to look back on over 20 years of Call of Duty history.

With entries exploring conflicts from both our past and our possible future, here's every Call of Duty game in chronological order.

Jump to:

• How to play in chronological order
• How to play by release date

How Many Call of Duty Games Are There?

Due to quite a few subseries, a reboot, and the many studios that have worked or are working on the series, it can be a bit troublesome to determine how many Call of Duty games have been released.

If we consider only the main entries with single-player campaigns, including all the World War II titles, the Modern Warfare subseries (plus its reboot), and the Black Ops subseries, there are 20 video games in the Call of Duty franchise

That said, things get complicated when you add all the expansions, online experiences, mobile games, and spin-offs. For example, Call of Duty: United Offensive is an expansion for the first game, while Call of Duty: Finest Hour and Call of Duty 2: Big Red One are side stories of the first two entries.

Spin-offs include strategy game Call of Duty: Siege, launched in 2016 based on Infinite Warfare’s universe; Call of Duty: Heroes, released in 2014; and the mobile version of Call of Duty: Black Ops. In fact, many main entries have significantly different editions for mobile/handheld when compared to the major console releases. Examples of this are PS Vita’s Call of Duty: Black Ops: Declassified and Nintendo DS’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3: Defiance.

Then there’s the Chinese free-to-play Call of Duty Online, released in 2015 and shut down in 2021. 2019’s Call of Duty Mobile took its place and is still running today.

The unique Zombies modes have become a staple of the series since their first inclusion in 2008’s World at War, and they have appeared in multiple entries since.

Finally, the franchise entered the battle royale and live service genres with Warzone, launched in 2020, which became a huge success. Two years later, it was replaced by Warzone 2.0, a complete overhaul of the game’s map and experience. Warzone Mobile brought the battle royale experience to iOS and Android devices in early 2024.

To avoid confusion, it’s worth mentioning that the reboot of the Modern Warfare series will be numbered with Roman numbers. Also, Black Ops 4 is not added to the list below for its lack of campaign (it’s a multiplayer-only experience).

Which Call of Duty Game Should You Play First?

For the sake of simplicity and accessibility, we recommend 2019's Modern Warfare reboot as a solid starting point for Call of Duty campaigns. Starting here creates a straightforward path through the rebooted Modern Warfare trilogy, as all three games are available on modern Xbox and PlayStation consoles, as well as PC. Plus, unlike the Black Ops subseries, each game was released within the last five years, meaning none should feel too dated.

Call of Duty Games in Chronological Order

Beware of minor spoilers for the stories, characters, and relevant events of each game in the list below.

1. Call of Duty (2003)

The franchise's first game was developed by Infinity Ward and published in 2003. This is the first of many entries in the series focused on World War II, following the steps of other household names like Medal of Honor.

In the first Call of Duty, you play three different campaigns as different soldiers from three countries: the United States, Britain, and the Soviet Union.

The North American soldier, Private Martin, starts his training in 1942 and participates in the invasion of Normandy in 1944, while the British Sergeant Evans fights in Operation Tonga that same year. Evans will later be helped by Captain Price, a recurrent name in the franchise. On the other hand, the Soviet Alexei Ivanovich Voronin’s campaign takes place in the Battle of Stalingrad.

2. Call of Duty 2 (2005)

The sequel of the original title repeats the settings and nations but with some different perspectives. Instead of three campaigns, you experience four: one from the perspective of a North American soldier, one from the Soviet Union, and two from Britain.

As Private Vasili Koslov, you have to defend Moscow from Nazi German soldiers, while North American Bill Taylor joins the army that assaults La Pointe du Hoc during the infamous D-Day. The British soldiers, Sergeant John Davis and David Welsh, participated in the conflict in North Africa. Davis is led by Captain Price.

3. Call of Duty: World at War (2008)

A few years after Call of Duty 3, the team at Treyarch came back and delivered their last entry based on the conflict the series has been breathing off since its beginnings. This time, however, the campaign was only divided into North American and Soviet forces.

You follow American Marine Private C. Miller during the Makin Island raid in 1942, and later in the Battle of Peleliu, in which American forces confronted the Japanese army. The Soviet section takes place in the Battle of Stalingrad, but this time on the Eastern Front as Private Dimitri Petrenko.

4. Call of Duty 3 (2005)

The first main game in the series not developed by Infinity Ward, Call of Duty 3 was Treyarch’s first attempt at recreating World War II events.

Taking place in 1944, armies from Britain, Poland, the United States, Canada, and France fight against Germany's Nazi forces in the village of Chambois, France, during the Battle of Normandy.

This is the only main entry you cannot play on PC.

5. Call of Duty: WWII (2017)

Almost a decade and a half after the first game, studio Sledgehammer Games returned the franchise to World War II. This was the first time in the main series there was only one protagonist in the campaign: Ronald “Red” Daniels, accompanied by his loyal squad. As Red, you fight Nazi German forces across the European theater, from Normandy to Germany.

While WWII has some brief flashback sequences in 1940, which would set it as the first game in the series chronologically, the core of the title takes place in 1944.

6. Call of Duty: Vanguard (2021)

In the latest entry set in World War II, developer Sledgehammer Games tried once again to bring Call of Duty to its roots and explore this historical event from a different perspective.

Contrary to 2017’s WWII, you are presented with multiple characters on different fronts. The main objective is to learn more about Phoenix, a secret Nazi project that could change the tide of the war in favor of Nazi Germany.

Vanguard also has flashback sequences for different protagonists starting in 1941, but the majority of the campaign is set in 1945, near the end of the war.

7. Call of Duty: Black Ops (2010)

Developer Treyarch changed eras with Black Ops. Going from 1961 to 1968, you’ll experience the events of the Cold War and part of the Vietnam War for the first time in the series.

The main protagonist, Alex Mason, works with the CIA and is tasked to remember events that would help find Soviet sleeper agents. These agents are around the United States, and they plan to release a dangerous chemical weapon called Nova 6.

8. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War (2020)

Developed by Treyarch and Raven Software, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War helps connect the original Black Ops and Black Ops 2. While the main protagonist this time is nicknamed “Bell,” you get to choose your name, gender, and other details like dialogue lines.

Set in 1981, you team up with characters from previous games, including Alex Mason, Frank Woods, and Jason Hudson. Under CIA’s Russell Adler, your elite team is supposed to catch a Soviet figure that goes by “Perseus” who is planning to attack the United States.

9. Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 (2012)

The sequel to the original Black Ops presents two timelines. On the first one, you follow Alex Mason’s footsteps several years after he and his team successfully stopped Nova 6. It’s 1986, and Jason Hudson asks Mason to aid with the search for Frank Woods, who disappeared in Cuando Cubango, Angola.

The second timeline is centered around David Mason, Alex’s son, who’s looking for Raul Menendez in 2025. Menendez is the leader of Cordis Die, a terrorist organization that provoked the Second Cold War.

10. Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 (2024)

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 takes place in the early 1990s, beginning in 1991, after the events of Black Ops 2's late-80s storyline. The story is centered around the Gulf War, wherein Frank Woods and his team of rogue agents are hunted by a shadowy group that's infiltrated the CIA.

Historical figures represented in the game include former U.S. president Bill Clinton and former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein.

11. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (2007)

The last entry to have a number after “Call of Duty,” Modern Warfare is the first time the series abandoned its classic Allies vs Axis conflict for something more recent.

In 2011, Yasir Al-Fulani, the president of a fictional Middle Eastern country, was executed by Khaled Al-Asad, the leader of a revolutionary party. Meanwhile, Russia is going through a civil war provoked by Imran Zakhaev, an arms dealer.

A squad commanded by Captain Price and formed by protagonist John “Soap” MacTavish have to stop an international crisis.

12. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2009)

Set five years after the events of the previous game, Modern Warfare 2 tells the story of Vladimir Makarov, an Ultranationalist who continues the work of Imran Zakhaev. It turns out this extremist party gained control of Russia, so Makarov gained the power to start committing terrorist acts against the United States.

Well-known faces like the Captain Soap and Captain Price join forces with Sergeant Gary "Roach" Sanderson, Lieutenant Simon "Ghost" Riley, “Nikolai”, and other agents to stop Makarov’s secret plan.

13. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (2011)

The end of the first Modern Warfare trilogy brings the pursuit of terrorist Vladimir Makarov to its climax. Captain Price’s team re-arranges itself with Yuri, an ex-Spetsnaz known by Nikolai. Captain John "Soap" MacTavish is also present for the final mission.

Makarov captures Boris Vorshevsky, the president of Russia, who was going to establish peace with the United States. After threatening the president’s daughter, Makarov acquired nuclear launch codes, becoming an international danger once again.

14. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)

In 2019, Infinity Ward rebooted the successful Modern Warfare series by reusing some classic characters in a new timeline. Well-known faces like Captain Price are present in a new conflict with Russia.

Set in the same year it was released, a fictional republic called Urzikstan is invaded by a Russian army. While this attack is going on, a terrorist organization called Al-Qatala, also from Urzikstan, begins with operations against different countries in the world. Captain Price, alongside his Task Force 141 and the Urzikstan Liberation Force, try to de-escalate the conflict.

15. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022)

Taking place in 2022, Modern Warfare II follows the story of the MW reboot, featuring returning characters from Task Force 141 and the Urzikstan Liberation Force leader Farah Karim.

Al-Qatala is still a threat, but all eyes are on Quds Force, an Iranian revolutionary group commanded by Hassan Zyani. Zyani is supported by Al-Qatala and a Mexican cartel from the fictional city of Las Almas, and he plans terrorist acts against the United States after the assassination of General Ghorbrani, an Iranian forces leader.

16. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III (2023)

Picking up after the events of 2022's Modern Warfare II, MWIII once again stars Task Force 141, including recurring characters John Price, Simon "Ghost" Riley, Kyle "Gaz" Garrick, and John "Soap" MacTavish. Ultranationalist terrorist Vladimir Makarov, the villain from 2011's Modern Warfare 3, once again serves as the antagonist.

17. Call of Duty: Ghosts (2013)

A standalone entry with few connections to previous titles, Call of Duty Ghosts was developed by Infinity Ward in 2013. As its name indicates, it focused on the special operation group called Ghosts, a U.S. team tasked with secret missions.

It’s 2027, and after a decade of conflicts in the Middle East and an oil crisis, a South American force called the Federation of the Americas initiated a war against the United States. Working with your new team, you have to stop Gabriel T. Rorke, the former leader of Ghosts.

18. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (2014)

Advanced Warfare was the first entry to take place several decades beyond its release date. It was also the first game developed primarily by Sledgehammer Games.

Set in 2054, you control Jack Mitchell, a member of the United States Marine Corps who later fights in the private military corporation known as Atlas after suffering an accident. On this occasion, the enemy forces are a Chechenian separatist group called KVA led by Joseph "Hades" Chkheidze.

It was one of the first entries to feature futuristic changes in gameplay due to its setting, like the fact that soldiers now wear exoskeletons, which bring them unique abilities.

19. Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 (2015)

The end of the initial Black Ops trilogy was also set in the future. More specifically, in the year 2065, when a Third Cold War between the Common Defense Pact and the Winslow Accord is happening. Robotic drones, cyborg supersoldiers, unpiloted air forces, and other technological advancements take center stage.

A black ops team composed of you (simply referred to as “The Player”), Jacob Hendricks, and your cybernetics division will be tasked with preventing the conflict from reaching a more dangerous state. You investigate a strange event in Singapore and look out for the 54 Immortals, a crime organization.

20. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare (2016)

No Call of Duty game went further into the future than Infinite Warfare. Around the 2080s, the United Nations Space Alliance was created after humans had spent all the natural resources available on Earth. Beginning the colonization and exploitation of resources on other planets, this alliance is defended by the Solar Associated Treaty Organization, a military force that battles the totalitarian regime Settlement Defense Front from Mars.

What’s Next for Call of Duty?

It's official: Black Ops 7 is next up in the Call of Duty franchise. A reveal trailer was shown at the recent June Xbox Showcase, showing Milo Ventimiglia as David Mason. Michael Rooker is also set to reprise his role as Mike Harper from Black Ops 2.

The seventh Black Ops game will be set in 2035, over 40 years after Black Ops 6, and brings back co-op campaigns. We don't have a release window quite yet, but it's certainly possible Activision sticks to their usual schedule of October or November releases.

Outside of games, Activision recently struck a deal with Paramount to produce a live-action Call of Duty movie. David Ellison, Chairman and CEO of Paramount, has said he’s a big Call of Duty fan who’s put “countless” hours into the franchise. Little is known about the direction the movie will take, but Ellison did refer to Paramount's recent success with Top Gun: Maverick as a "guiding star."

If there's any console manufacturer that truly embraces customization and color variety in its controllers—it's Xbox. For more than a decade, Xbox has released a steady stream of unique colors, patterns, and limited edition controllers across its Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles. And, if the official offerings aren't enough for you, Xbox Design Lab allows you to go wild creating your own controller design from scratch.

Aside from some minor tweaks to the design when the Xbox Series X|S launched in 2020, the Xbox Wireless Controller has largely gone unchanged since the Xbox One era. Even better, you can use your Xbox One controllers on Xbox Series X|S and vice-versa. But, if you're curious just how many official controllers Xbox has released since the beginning of the Series X|S generation, we've got you covered. Check out the full rundown below of every Xbox controller color by release date including standard, special edition, and limited edition controllers.

We've got another surprise for those enjoying the Year of the Ninja, because September's IGN First is Team Ninja's own Nioh 3. Join us all month long for exclusive reveals, new gameplay videos, interviews, impressions and more, all stemming for our trip to Koei Tecmo's office to play about five or so hours worth of the upcoming sequel.

We kick things off with a boss battle featuring The Tiger of Kai, Takeda Shingen, which you can watch below.

Keep checking back on IGN all throughout the month for much more on Nioh 3.

The cinematic adventures of Ed and Lorraine Warren come to a close with The Conjuring: Last Rites, but unfortunately they don’t go out with their most exciting case. It’s a shame too, because the film gets off to a promising start before losing steam it never really regains.

Set in 1986, this installment’s real-life inspiration comes from the Smurl family, who claimed to have some rather horrific hauntings continually plague their Pennsylvania home. In Last Rites, the trouble begins when eldest daughter Heather (Kíla Lord Cassidy) is gifted an old mirror by her grandparents. Almost immediately, ceilings are collapsing, various family members are seeing disturbing visions, and at one point someone’s even coughing up blood. And yeah, they do try to get rid of the mirror, but it turns out that’s easier said than done.

Coming in hot is another new Pokémon TCG expansion preorder, just weeks after the start of a new era, Mega Evolution, was announced and preordered selling out instantly. Don't worry, I know who's going to be selling it first so you all don't miss out, and it could come as soon as today or tommorow!

TL;DR: Deals For Today

I've got even more Pokémon deals in today's daily deals too, from the hottest Funko preorders and discounts to where's cheapest to buy sealed product that's in stock right now. I keep both eyes on the market so you don't have too, and with big box retailers piling on that dreaded Pokémania 2025 tax, someone needs to catch 'em out, right? Here's today's deals:

Pokémon TCG: Mega Evolution - Phantasmal Flames Preorders

With the Pokémon Center listings going live for preorder at any moment, it's only a matter of time until the first expansion for the new era of Pokémon TCG, Mega Evolution: Phantasmal Flames, comes pouring down to other retailers. First up will be Best Buy, normally around 24 hours after the Pokémon Center launch, followed by Target then secondary market and small seller allocations being available on TCGPlayer. Amazon and Walmart have been known to stock Pokémon TCG preorders in the past, but it's not always a guarantee.
Phantasmal Flames drops on November 14, with prerelease events running the week before, and the big headline is Mega Charizard X ex returning in full force. What makes this set even more exciting is its size , about 90 cards before secret rares, which makes it the smallest English set in nearly a decade. For collectors like me, that usually means a much more manageable chase, while still packing in plenty of heavy hitters for players.

The product lineup looks pretty stacked too. We’ll be getting the usual booster packs and booster box (36 packs), a 9-pack Elite Trainer Box featuring a shiny new Charcadet promo, and an Ultra-Premium Collection built around Mega Charizard X ex. On top of that, two theme decks for Mega Gengar ex and Mega Diancie ex are arriving a few weeks early on October 24, which is a fun way to get a taste of the set before launch. If you’re like me and love cracking packs, the booster box is the way to go, but the UPC is already looking like the big collector piece this time around.

What ties it all together is the Japanese set Inferno X, which hit shelves there in late September. That set had only 80 cards, and once you add in the Mega Gengar and Mega Diancie decks, you basically get the full Phantasmal Flames lineup. We’ve already seen some killer reveals, including the Mega Charizard X ex secret rare previewed at Worlds, so I’m fully expecting that to be the chase card when this launches. Between the smaller set size, Charizard hype, and some solid gameplay cards, I think this one’s going to fly off shelves and I’m definitely locking in my preorder.

Back To The Future Steelbook Preorders Are Live

The 40th anniversary Back to the Future steelbooks are a collector’s dream. Each movie in the trilogy is getting its own limited-edition release on October 14, with sleek new steelbook packaging featuring inside-and-out film artwork. Priced between $29.99 and $34.99, each edition includes the movie on 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and digital, along with a treasure trove of bonus features, from archival documentaries and outtakes to new retrospectives with co-writer Bob Gale and cast/crew members.

Pokémon TCG: Holiday Calendar (2025) Cheaper At TCGPlayer

Marvel Legends Series Wolverine Premium Roleplay Mask

Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 + 4 Under $35

As part of Amazon’s Labor Day sale, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 has dropped to its lowest price yet, making now the perfect time to grab it. Normally priced higher, this updated collection delivers classic arcade skateboarding with a modern polish. In our review where we scored it an 8/10, we praised the game for proving “the series’ over-the-top skateboarding formula is totally timeless,” even if some of the tweaks to THPS4 and the soundtrack choices didn’t fully land. At this price, though, you’re getting an iconic piece of gaming history for less than ever before.

Pokémon TCG ETBs and Booster Bundles

When it comes to sealed Pokémon TCG products, the real bargains today are on ETBs and booster bundles. White Flare is sitting at just $75 on TCGPlayer, which is a nice break from the usual $90+ price tags. Even the newer Destined Rivals and Black Bolt boxes are running cheaper there than anywhere else. And if you don’t want to spring for a full ETB, Prismatic Evolutions booster bundles are going for as low as $59, which feels like an easy pickup if you’re chasing singles without committing to a whole box.

Pokémon TCG Collections, Tins and Boosters

If you’re more into variety packs than full ETBs, there are some great grabs in the collections and tins today. Cynthia’s Garchomp ex Premium Collection is down to $45 on TCGPlayer, which feels like a steal compared to Amazon’s $60 tag. The Slashing Legends Tin also jumped out at me at $29.99—that’s nearly half off what Amazon is charging. Even the smaller items are worth a look: Surging Sparks sleeved boosters are going for just $7.93, which is $15.98 on Amazon currently.

Pokémon Funko Pop! Preorders

I’m also eyeing a few of the new Funko Pop! preorders that just went live. Turtwig drops at the end of September for $15.99, while Ninetales and Absol are both set for mid-December at $14.99 each. These usually disappear around launch week, so if you’re the type who likes locking in new releases before they vanish, it’s probably worth snagging them now instead of hunting later at inflated prices.

Pokémon Funko Pop! Deals

Amazon’s been quietly slashing prices on a bunch of Pokémon Funko Pops, and some of them are cheaper than a booster pack. The biggest surprise for me was Horsea at just $4.31—that’s wild considering it normally goes for $12.99. There are plenty of others worth adding to your shelf too, like Fidough for $7.99, Dratini for $11.30, and even the 10-inch Pikachu for $62, which is a solid drop from its usual $75.99. Whether you’re filling gaps in your collection or just want a budget-friendly pick-up, today’s lineup has a nice mix of starters, legendaries, and fan favorites.

20 years after cameras first rolled at Dunder Mifflin, The Office has spun off into The Paper, tailing accountant Oscar Martinez to his new gig at a different paper company, one with an actual newspaper. Creator Greg Daniels has built another show in the mold he helped perfect with both The Office and Parks and Recreation, and while The Paper is playing the hits, and playing them extremely well, the tempo might be a little too fast.

The Paper premieres on Peacock, with all 10 episodes dropping September 4th.

So the basics of the story should sound familiar. There’s an idealistic, even anachronistic, person with a romantic zeal for the old-fashioned inserted into a mix of misfits who are equal parts self-important and oblivious, and this person brings about a change for the better in the group dynamic. If you smooshed together descriptions of The Office and Parks and Recreation it’d be more or less the same as what we get in The Paper, even if the ingredients are a little bit different.

The show is earnest and sweet and has empathy for even what passes as villainous in a warm-hearted sitcom. We get to root for love to spark between two people, we get to watch strong, impenetrable personalities become vulnerable, all while an absurd brand of comedy rapid-fires jokes based around caricatures of people who inspire some part of your brain to say “I know a guy just like that.” Everything I loved about The Office and Parks and Rec is here in The Paper.

This flavor of Greg Daniels-led mockumentary series focuses on a failing newspaper, although failing might not be the right word. The Toledo Truth Teller is a relic of a publication being left behind to tread water in an already-changed media landscape. It’s owned by a parent company that sells toilet paper and envelopes and a variety of other paper goods, occupying only part of a floor in a building it used to own entirely back in the heyday of journalistic integrity.

And that’s ultimately the focus of the show: the current state of a once valued institution. It’s a more substantive swing at a timelier topic than The Office or Parks and Rec ever really took as a series, and The Paper wastes no ink in letting us know about it. The title sequence is both the most on-the-nose and funniest bit of imagery to that end, made from a flurry of shots of newspapers being used for everything from a folded paper hat, to wrapping fish sold at a farmers market, to house-breaking a dog and lining the bottom of a birdcage – literally every disposable function of a newspaper that’s not its intended purpose of, you know, "actually reading it.”

There's an obvious criticism of modern journalism at play throughout the season, covering everything from click bait and celebrity info-tainment to the ethics of writing about your parent company and the attention economy at play in legacy media’s ability to compete with a one-man blog.

What’s interesting about The Paper, though, and for me the foremost knock against it, is the decision to drop all 10 episodes at once. It’s not usually a fair criticism to say “this show would be better if there were more of it,” but I legitimately believe that’s the case here. There’s an irony that a show about an old institution trying to exist in a modern landscape is itself a 2005-style sitcom living in 2025’s release model. Like The Toledo Truth Teller, The Paper is perhaps shortchanged by the environment in which it was made.

Binging the entire season is not a difficult feat given that it's 10 half-hours (and some of us will spend that long trying to decide what movie to watch again) but it does lead me back to my one real problem with the first season of The Paper: it just moves too fast. Like I said, there’s a will-they-won’t-they love connection, an old guy that just wants to nap, an overbearing boss who is believably just-beyond-realistic, a would-be villain set in their ways. The playbook is right there in its entirety but what The Office or Parks and Rec slow-played across multiple, 24-episode seasons, The Paper does at warp speed across just 10 episodes. To be fair, there are pros and cons to that.

The pro: The Office formula is so thoroughly familiar and well-made at this point, The Paper can afford to do it this way. Domhnall Gleeson as Ned Sampson, a rich kid with romanticized ideas of being a newsman, hits all the right notes. He’s childish and silly and scared of spiders, but within the same episode he’s an inspiring leader, with infectious ideology and passion, equal parts Michael Scott and Leslie Knope. Chelsea Frei’s Mare Pritti is a perfect foil for him, with a history in the military, a long-stifled desire to do something of substance and a back seat full of granola bar wrappers. English indie comedy stand out Tim Key is also hilarious as Ken, an inept and self-aggrandizing yes-man. While they’re all well-drawn characters in a vacuum, they’re also people we’ve already met thanks to The Office, Parks and Rec, and even shows like Modern Family and What We Do in the Shadows, who skip even having a fourth wall to break.

Oscar Nunez returning as Oscar Martinez, a character we quite literally have already met, is just as fun here, and the way the writers develop Martinez is one of the smartest in the show. But he is the only actual narrative connection to The Office. The real connection between the two is, of course, the style, structure and archetypes. In that respect, the choice to zoom past any sort of character building is the right one.

The con: starting fast with all the shorthand available to Greg Daniels and co is good up to a point. Take Esmeralda, for example. Sabrina Impacciatore, who we last saw at the front desk of The White Lotus, plays a proud purveyor of celebrity info-tainment, an ambitious and almost brutal office politicker. She and Ken are cast as the antagonists early on, assuming Ned’s designs to bring the paper back to its old prominence will spell the end of their comfortable status quo. It’s a common archetype that almost always follows the same steps. Step 1 is the active resistance to the main character's goals, step 2 is a humbling dose of very visible vulnerability and step 3 is the rest of the team adopting a more sympathetic view of the heel in light of step 2’s revelations. All of that happens in The Paper, but steps 1 and 2 happen so quickly that step 3 is a little difficult to buy.

The last few episodes in particular are trying to cash checks the first half of the season wrote and more than one of them doesn’t clear the bank. Everything from the ups and downs of romantic relationships to the credibility of The Toledo Truth Teller itself come to conclusions by the end of the 10-episode season that, in the days of The Office and Parks and Rec, wouldn’t have been earned until multiple seasons of groundwork had been properly laid.

It begs the question, at what point did Universal or Peacock or Greg Daniels or whoever decide to drop all the episodes at once? Did they know it was a binge model when they wrote it, and with that in mind, took full advantage of The Office’s reputation to spend less screen time on character development, or did they write a show that, on seeing the 10 episodes sitting in a neat little row, realized they’d be better off watched in one sitting.

Ultimately, that question doesn’t really matter though, because either of those options may very well be the case. The truth is, The Paper as it is constructed is better as a bingeable show. The only disappointment is in the fact that there’s enough loveable, good-natured earnestness in there to justify a much longer run. As entertaining as these 10 episodes are, the binge drop of the first season may make the show in the image of its own title sequence, a disposable bit of yesterday's headlines. The other option, the one that resonated more with me, is that The Paper, too fast and only able to run because of the shows that crawled before it though it may be, is more like The Toledo Truth Teller’s new editor-in-chief, a bit of a romantic who maybe exists in the wrong decade, but still very much worth believing in.
