It’s official. The great Marvel overlords ruling over your wallets with an iron fist have made the best choice they’ve had all year. Netflix’s Daredevil has been revived for a second series which I thought was unlikely due to Marvel being content to cram everything into their cinematic universe but thankfully I was wrong.

The show runners are changing with Stephen DeKnight being replaced by Doug Petrie and Marco Ramirez who worked on the first season of the show with DeKnight and Goddard. It’s not possible to know yet if there will be any major changes but I assume the show should stay much the same in the way of tone and writing quality.

It has been set for 2016 and will most likely be running at a similar time to Marvel’s Luke Cage series. Personally I think it was the best choice to revive Daredevil for a second series purely as there would be no reason to not make more use of him before The Defenders crossover as opposed to waiting until 2017 to see any more of the man without fear.

In an interview with Empire Charlie Cox spoke about his hopes for season two:

“I have to be careful because we just got commissioned so I have no idea who is going to turn up based on the show we’ve created, which is very grounded in reality, I’d like to see Punisher maybe show up, a little bit of Elektra maybe. I wouldn’t mind Black Widow making an appearance, and you can’t think about Daredevil for too long without thinking of Bullseye. I don’t know when or if or how that would happen, but it’d be cool if it did.”

With any luck this should be even stronger than the first one now that the world, main characters and plot points are established to further. As for what I thought of the first series?

Well, I’ll tell you on May 1st  with my personal pitch for season 2 not long after!

Even though trophy support for older games on PS Plus Premium isn’t always great, you can always count on Sony’s first-party games to have it.If you like collecting these digital trinkets, you’re in luck, because today’s big PlayStation Plus update includes two classic games that can now be used to earn Trophies.

Each trophy list for Ape Academy 2 and Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror includes the platinum cherry on top. You can look at their respective listings here and here if you’re interested.

The list for Dark Mirror appears to be quite simple—you can basically earn them all by finishing the game. The trophies in Ape Academy 2 appear to be a little more complicated, requiring you to complete particular objectives in card battles and advance to specified rankings. Nonetheless, it doesn’t seem too difficult, so we’re looking at a couple of quite simple platinums.

Ridge Racer: Type 4 is this month’s other premium classic game; sadly, it does not offer trophies. But it makes up for it by being a complete banger.

However, will you be obtaining some of these trophies with a nostalgic flavor?

This year, Sony produced some truly outstanding work, releasing four high-profile games on the PS5 and PS4 (not to mention the numerous PC ports). The earliest of these, Horizon Forbidden West, arrived in February of 2022 and got the year off to a strong start. One of Aloy’s sophomore journey’s greatest strengths, among the many other things we like about it, is its excellent art direction. The Art of Horizon Forbidden West allows you to now delve deeply into the game’s visuals.

This coffee table book, which was published by Dark Horse Books, contains 200 pages of concept art and developer commentary. It provides an inside look at the process used to develop engaging characters and settings, and Forbidden West is certainly not lacking in either.

Bloody hell, it took a while, but The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt’s long-awaited PS5 release date has been announced. The updated role-playing game will go on sale on December 14th, and CD Projekt Red reiterates that PS4 owners can get a free PS5 upgrade.

The “next-gen” game will have a physical edition at a later, as of yet unspecified time.

Though we still lack specific information about what the current-gen version will offer, don’t worry; it appears that all of our most pressing questions will be resolved soon. Next week, the developer says, will feature a livestream that will feature gameplay and more details. Hence, something to anticipate.

But in all honesty, we’re just relieved that this PS5 edition won’t be delayed any further. Will you play through The Witcher 3 again right before Christmas? Post your thoughts in the section below.
