We Almost Got a Resident Evil TV Show, and Here’s the Proof of Concept

If you don’t remember the pitch for the TV show Arklay, I don’t blame you. I never heard of it either. Plus, I have no idea what the title is supposed to mean. Just what is an “Arklay?” Well, it’s the name of both the mountains and remote mansion found outside Raccoon City. Yes, Arklay was supposed to be a television show that took place in the Resident Evil universe.
Arklay was planned back in 2014 and originally set to air in 2015, but no distributor ever picked it up. However, the show’s creator Shawn Lebert (Riddle of the Mask, Sanctuary) recently posted a proof of concept video titled Dave that gives audiences a taste of what could have been:
The video follows Detective Reinhardt as he visits the house of his brother Dave (hence the title). Apparently Dave committed suicide, but Reinhardt’s knowledge of Dave’s behavior and inclinations tells him not everything is as it seems. The proof of concept video plays out like a police drama and hints at an ongoing conspiracy that would have been revealed throughout the show had it been produced. And then, at the end of the video, Dave’s corpse stands up, and not because Dave’s alive; he’s quite clearly a zombie. The plot of Dave follows the original pitch for Arklay that was posted on Bloody Disgusting: “When Detective James Reinhard is thrust into a series of bizarre homicides, he unravels the city is hiding a dark conspiracy. Learning a fatal virus is connected to it all, Reinhard discovers it’s already coursing through him. With time no longer on his side, he must solve the conspiracy to save his own life.” This pitch sounds like a novel concept for a show. However, had VG247 not written an article about Dave, I never would have known it was supposed to take place in the Resident Evil universe.
Sadly, this is where information on the show ends. Arklay obviously was going to take place in Raccoon City, but we have no idea how, if at all, the show would have tied into the official Resident Evil canon. Would Arklay have included any Resident Evil characters or monsters like Albert Wesker or the T-002 Tyrant? Would the Detective Reinhardt visited any other other iconic Resident Evil locations, including the infamous Arklay Mansion? We may never know, but I do hope that Lebert’s video inspires a distributor to pick the show up; I think Arklay would do extremely well on Netflix.

PS5 Alone in the Dark Reboot Stars Jodie Comer, David Harbour This Halloween

On October 25, 2023, THQ Nordic’s Alone in the Dark reboot will star Killing Eve’s Jodie Comer and Stranger Things’ David Harbour. Comer will play Emily Hartwood, while Harbour will play Edward Carnaby.
The demo, loosely based on the 1992 original, is available for download from the PS Store. This prologue, starring supporting character Grace Saunders, is inspired by Alone in the Dark 2’s Jack in the Dark demo and allows you to explore the Derceto Mansion.
The showcase didn’t focus on combat, but previous showings have shown a frantic over-the-shoulder shooter, and developer Pieces Interactive promises a variety of puzzles. Depending on how much guidance you want, you can adjust the difficulty.
We’re excited about the final product. Alone in the Dark hasn’t been respected in recent years, despite its huge influence. A compelling reboot that updates the 1992 classic looks to put the franchise back on track.

Warhammer RTS Realms of Ruin Masses for PS5 Invasion

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin, a new real-time strategy game where players command one of four warring factions, is coming to PS5 in the grimdark future.
PlayStation’s strategy gaming renaissance makes us feel like we’re living in the best possible time for console gamers who love command. Realms of Ruin could be a cool addition if it succeeds. As fans know, Warhammer games are unfortunately inconsistent in quality, so we’ll reserve judgment until we see some gameplay.
Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin: your thoughts? What do you think of Age of Sigmar’s controversial rebranding in general?

One of PS5’s Worst Games Is The Lord of the Rings: Gollum

According to Metacritic, The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is the worst-rated game of 2023, setting a new low for AAA releases. OpenCritic’s story is similar. See our video or written review to understand why.
Only eFootball was more universally hated. Balan Wonderworld and Babylon’s Fall are other villains in that awful rogue’s gallery.
