Mighty No. 9 Live Action Film Announced

Mighty No. 9 film adaptation

Mighty No. 9, the Mega Man-like game from Keiji Inafune’s Comcept has a live action film in the works. Legendary Digital Media and Contradiction Films will be working with Comcept to create a live-action, feature-length film. Mighty No. 9 is an upcoming Mega Man-like action-platformer that received a whopping $4 million in funding through Kickstarter back in 2013.

“The announcement that Legendary Digital is collaborating with Contradiction and Comcept on creating a live-action project based on Mighty No. 9 is really amazing, not only for myself and the rest of the team at Comcept who worked on the game, but also for all the fans who have supported the project,” Inafune said. “This collaboration will give our creation the ability to reach people all over the world. Thanks to all of your support, we have fulfilled another one of our dreams.”

Legendary Digital Media is best known for its film adaptation of Dead Rising, another game series also created by Inafune. Dead Rising’s movie wasn’t exactly critically acclaimed, but it was commercially successful. Crackle, the streaming service for which the film was produced, has ordered a sequel.

Mighty No. 9’s movie will focus on a virus that drives a team of high-powered robots mad, except for one named Beck. Beck, who is the smallest of the robots, has to defeat them all, stop the virus, and save his robot family. Basically, it’s a zombie movie for robots.

Although the last film adaptation of an Inafune game from Legendary was released through Crackle, the Mighty No. 9 adaptation may not follow the same route. The film has been confirmed for digital release but there are no details yet on exactly what platforms.

Mighty No. 9 is set for release on September 15 in the US and September 18 everywhere else. It’ll be out on PC, Xbox One, PS4, Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U, 3DS, Mac, Linux, and PS Vita. Inafune and Comcept are also working on a new Mega Man-like game, Red Ash: The Indelible Legend.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.

This author has consistently praised the realistic portrayal of tennis in TopSpin 4. After more than a decade, we are thrilled to witness the release of TopSpin 2K25, which expands upon the success of its renowned predecessor. This gameplay video provides a comprehensive overview of the features discussed in our recent preview while also incorporating relevant footage to enhance understanding.

The series’ swing system sets it apart from arcade-style games like Virtua Tennis, as it requires players to charge up their shots in a different way. In order to succeed, timing is crucial, and fortunately, a new meter above your player will assist you in achieving that. Surfaces have their own distinct characteristics, such as clay, where you’ll experience a noticeable amount of sliding.

The game ensures that every player has a distinct set of animations, adding a touch of individuality to each competitor. The courts, found in all Grand Slams, possess a remarkable amount of individuality and charm. It is mentioned in the video that with each in-game season, players can expect a plethora of additional content, such as animation packs. This indicates that there will be plenty to anticipate even after the game’s initial release.
