The Five Nights at Freddy’s movie sequel will apparently be “much bigger” and “scarier” which sounds like a recipe for your kid having nightmares again.Unless you are under the age of 13, I wouldn’t necessarily call the first Five Nights at Freddy’s movie particularly scary, but I will admit that there are a couple of scenes that would be a bit overwhelming for the younger viewer. However, in a recent interview with Esquire, the film’s lead actor Josh Hutcherson shared that the sequel is “much bigger; the stakes are higher.” He goes on a bit more to explain, “There’s more animatronics being brought in, different animatronics being brought in, and the world just opens up in a big way.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings “We’re finding the balance right now of building this world and expanding it in a really cool way but also making sure the characters stay really grounded. That’s something that I really think that we all fought for in the first film, because this world that was created in Five Nights at Freddy’s, it’s so out-there. It’s so over-the-top and wacky, in a way, that to find the emotional truth of the characters was gonna be what was gonna work. I think the fans are gonna flip for it. It’s gonna be a lot of fun with the source. It’s gonna be scarier, too, actually.”Hutcherson was also asked if there’s any potential for more film adaptations beyond the next one, with the actor responding, “You never know. I mean, I love working in this world. Emma Tammi, our director, is phenomenal, and with my character, Mike, I think the possibilities are endless. This could have a very potentially long run and it could be a lot of fun, but at this point we’re focusing on the second movie. We’ll see what comes after that.”We’re about a year out from Five Nights at Freddy’s 2, as it’s currently slated to release fall 2025, but an exact release date is yet to be shared.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is a big game that’s received plenty of free content post release, and yet the developer’s CEO was worried it would be too short.Anyone that’s played Baldur’s Gate 3 can quickly tell you that it is a beefy game. I constantly see posts go viral of some obscure scene with players that have put hundreds of hours into the game saying they’ve never seen that in all their playtime.

Read moreMuch like Capcom starting its Resident Evil remakes with the second game, Konami has done the same with Silent Hill – but the question is, why?You would think that the logical way to remake a series is starting from the beginning, but when Konami finally revealed that the Silent Hill series was making a comeback, it did so by announcing a couple of new games, and of course, a remake of fan favourite Silent Hill 2 from Bloober Team. It’s that fan favourite point that is probably a big reason as to why it has received the remake treatment first, but in a recent interview with Rock Paper Shotgun, Bloober Team’s creative director Mateusz Lenart and lead producer Maciej Głomb offered some more in-depth reasons as to why it was that the second game is kicking off the Silent Hill reviv…

Read moreHas Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse actually been delayed to 2027? Not according to its composer
A report recently claimed that Sony might be moving Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse to 2027, but the series’ composer has set the record straight.Pardoning the pun there in that first line, yesterday industry insider Jeff Sneider shared in his (paywalled) column The Insneider that the third and final entry in the Spider-Verse trilogy, Beyond the Spider-Verse, which currently doesn’t have a release date is now being slated for 2027, and that most of the film has been scrapped for creative reasons. Beyond the Spider-Verse was originally slated for release on March 29, 2024, though was delayed in part due to the writer’s strike last year, but also because it sounded like it wouldn’t be ready production-wise anyway. A 2027 release would obviously be a three year long delay, and would mean …

Read moreVariousThere are so many ways to be a Dungeons & Dragons fan these days. The tabletop RPG mainstay has been synonymous with pen-and-paper adventuring for 50 years now, and 2024 marks a major reworking of its core rulebooks to make the game more approachable. Anyone who’s played even just a couple of sessions knows how easy it can be to covet a friend’s set of custom dice, appreciate the care a Dungeon Master has taken in setting the right ambience for a crafted campaign, or even obsess over their choice of pen and notebook — after all, it’s what you’ll be spending a large chunk of time staring into as you ponder your character’s next heroic action.But what’s amazing is that you can be a huge D&D fan without ever touching a character sheet.
