As part of Showtime’s approaching merger with with Paramount+, a Season 2 of Dexter: New Blood has been discarded in favor of a possible prequel series “centered around a young version of the titular antihero.” TVLine was first to report, citing “multiple unnamed sources.”
Showtime has not provided an official comment, but the publication is reporting that a prequel is one of “a number of new iterations of Dexter” that the network is considering. That Dexter: New Blood has been cut short is something of a surprise, as the 10-episode revival averaged 8 million weekly viewers. Plus, showrunner Clyde Phillips was immediately on record in January 2022 when that season wrapped that he knew how the series would continue.
“If [Showtime] asks me if I’d …

Read moreMicrosoft has announced a 10-year agreement with Boosteroid to bring Xbox first-party PC games to its cloud gaming platform.
The announcement was made with a Microsoft news post, where it was confirmed that the Xbox PC games being brought to Boosteroid will include Activision Blizzard games like Call of Duty.

When Xbox Brazil’s official Twitter account posted a Father’s Day post that included Barrett from Final Fantasy 7 Remake, some fans speculated that Microsoft could be teasing an upcoming port. The post was swiftly deleted, however, and Microsoft has now clarified that Barrett’s inclusion was a mistake, not a hint.
The original post, as caught by TheGamer, featured a selection of notable video game dads from various Xbox titles–with one exception. An image of Barrett with his daughter Marlene was placed smack bang in the middle of the collage, and while the original Final Fantasy 7 is available on Xbox, the screenshot used was from the PC- and PlayStation-exclusive Remake.
The post was quickly taken down, but not before it was seen and screenshotted by plenty of people. Fans…
Read moreA new Call of Duty: Warzone patch is out now, and in addition to the Season 3 Reloaded content changing Caldara, today’s update also drastically reduces the player count in battle royale matches–from 150 down to 120. You can see full details in the patch notes below along with a rundown on what else is new and different in Warzone.

Raven said this is only a “trial” and that it will collect play…

A year after it first arrived with the Xbox Series X|S consoles, Microsoft’s latest controller for its PC and console gaming division has proven to be one of its best so far. Updated in subtle and meaningful ways, the Xbox controller might not have the next-gen tech that Sony’s DualSense peripheral features, but it’s arguably a better device to have in your hands for long hours thanks to its superb ergonomic design.
The Xbox controller also lends itself well to customization, a physical feature that Microsoft–and at least one Smash Mouth fan– have pounced on with a number of brightly-colored alternative designs. You can have your controller in sleek black, dirt-magnet white, or even a bright red, but the best color is obviously the blue variant. Not just a serene and ca…

WWE President Nick Khan has been talking with New Japan Pro-Wrestling over a working relationship, according to a report from Wrestling Observer Newsletter. The idea is that WWE will be the exclusive American company to crossover with Japan’s biggest wrestling promotion.
The report also includes that it would involve WWE sending talent and top stars to work in NJPW, but the report isn’t clear if NJPW would send its performers outside of Japan. If this colossal deal would go through, it has huge ramifications for NJPW’s relationship with American companies like Ring of Honor, Impact Wrestling, and of course, AEW. It’s worth noting that former AEW World Champion Jon Moxley, is also the current IWGP United States Champion.

Many World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King Classic realms are currently plagued by server login queues of up to six hours or more during peak playtimes, and according to Blizzard, the situation is only going to get worse.
In a detailed forum post explaining the server queue situation and what can be done about it, Blizzard states outright that while they are working on solutions (before later stating there is no technology or hardware solution to the problem), the real answer to the game’s current server woes is for players to take advantage of the free server transfers currently being offered to those most affected. The situation will likely only get worse in the weeks ahead, Blizzard notes, as the majority of the game’s new Wrath of the Lich King content won’t offi…

Physical media is slowly going the way of the dodo. But it appears that Xbox isn’t giving up on it just yet, despite having a disc-less console.
In an interview with Game File, Xbox boss Phil Spencer shared his thoughts on physical media by explaining that Xbox is “supportive of physical media, but we don’t have a need to drive that disproportionate to customer demand.”
With The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom selling millions of copies and raking in awards, questions have been raised about what’s next for the Zelda series, and whether or not the future may include blasts from the past. Franchise head Eiji Aonuma is here to pump the brakes, as he says the traditional linear Zelda adventures of old won’t be coming back any time soon.
Speaking with IGN, Aonuma expresses his belief that those views come from a “grass is greener” mentality–where people have a tendency to want the things they don’t currently have. He continues by stating that the current Zelda format does have a “set” path; however, that path is chosen by the player rather than the designers.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has an abundance of immensely challenging shrines, but other shrines tend to lean more on creativity than overwhelming difficulty. Somewhere in the middle is Oshozan-u Shrine in the northern part of Hebra. In this guide, we’ll tell you how to knock this shrine out efficiently.
How to solve the Oshozan-u Shrine Puzzle in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
When you first enter Oshozan-u Shrine, use your Ultrahand to pick up the log in the first room and attach it vertically to the box on a track that leads up to a massive target. Next, attach a rocket to it and slap the rocket with a weapon to send the log up to hit the target and open the gate.
In the next room, use Fuse to attach a rocket to your shield, then…
Read moreIf you aren’t a Star Wars: Rebels fan, watching Ahsoka can be a little bit disorienting because it’s essentially a live-action fifth season of that animated series. But there’s still plenty for all the other Star Wars fans to chew on–particularly the search for Thrawn, which seems like it could be taking us beyond the borders of the Star Wars galaxy as we know them. It’s kind of a big deal.
Warning: The rest of this article will contain major spoilers for the first two episodes of Ahsoka, as well as speculation about what could happen in the rest of the series.
But it’s not a big deal just because it’s cool to do something new–though that is something Star Wars doesn’t do often enough. It’s a big deal because it means that this…
Read moreAt BlizzCon 2013, then-World of Warcraft executive producer (and later, Blizzard president) J. Allen Brack infamously said, “You think you do, but you don’t,” in response to a fan asking about being able to replay old expansions from World of Warcraft’s history.
Flash forward to 2024, and there’s not just one old-school, “Classic” version of Blizzard’s enduring MMORPG to play, but four. It’s an impressive accomplishment for a bite-sized team of a few dozen developers that exists within the larger WoW development team at Blizzard. GameSpot recently sat down with WoW Classic lead software engineer Nora Valletta and associate production director Clayton Stone to learn more about how, exactly, such a small team is able to operate so many different versions of the same game c…
Read moreFrom Avatar to Guardians of the Galaxy, Colombiana, and more, Zoe Saldana has starred in a lot of action movies in the last two decades. Now, Saldana wants to transition to directing by helming an action movie of her own.
“I’ve never seen a woman direct James Bond,” said Saldana at the Toronto International Film Festival via Variety. “I like The Equalizer. I watch crime shows, and, so, maybe in the future. I’ve always been drawn to heist themes. Heat is a film that I need to watch at least once a year and analyze it, and the way that Michael Mann just pairs it all together, the way that everybody performed it. So, I would love to start with an action-heist sort of thing.”
It may take some time before Saldana’s ambitions become a reality. While the actress has already filmed …

Ziplines are a great way to quickly traverse the landscape in Call of Duty: Warzone, especially for zipping up to get a rooftop advantage for some sniping. In this player’s case, the zipline saved them from an enemy’s finishing move.
Firaxis Games is the latest video game studio to be hit with layoffs. The studio is known for games such as XCOM and Marvel’s Midnight Suns.
In a statement, a Firaxis spokesperson said it was due to a “sharpening of focus, enhancements of efficiencies, and an alignment of our talent against our highest priorities.” According to Axios, about 30 employees were eliminated from their positions.
Earlier this year, Midnight Suns creative director Jake Solomon and Firaxis studio head Steve Martin left the studio. While Martin didn’t comment on his departure, Solomon said that he was moving on to something creatively new. Furthermore, Midnight Suns didn’t sell well despite good reviews, and the Nintendo Switch version was recently canceled.

Read moreMicrosoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer has shared new commentary around play-to-earn game mechanics and NFTs, saying he feels “cautious” but doesn’t want to write off any new technology.
Speaking to Bloomberg, Spencer said the “play-to-earn” category specifically gives him pause. He admitted that this isn’t new in the gaming landscape–people have been gold-farming for years–but such mechanics being built directly into games represents a new step that requires a cautious outlook, he said.
“Play-to-earn specifically is something I am cautious about. It creates a worker force out of players for certain players to monetize. To be fair for us, in the games industry, this has existed for years and years. There have been gold farmers–people who literally just spend their time doing s…
