Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Announced August 22, 2020

The developers behind the original Batman: Arkham Asylum games have been handed the reigns to put us into the shoes of the legendary Task Force X. Take a look at this trailer straight out of DC Fandome.

The game will feature four main characters from the Suicide Squad’s legendary roster including King Shark, Harley Quinn, Captain Boomerang, and Deadshot. You’ll be able to play the game in single-player with three AI-controlled companions (and can swap between them instantly), or you can team up with as many as three friends in online multiplayer to battle the Justice League in the streets of Metropolis!

Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League is coming in 2022.

Update: Here’s the first gameplay footage from the game!

Gotham Knights is coming in 2021.

Behind the Scenes of Marvel’s Avengers: Who is AIM? August 20, 2020

We are weeks away from the release of Marvel’s Avengers. Many people are familiar with villains like Thanos, The Red Skull, and Doctor Doom but not as many people may be as familiar with some of their more sinister organizations. One of those organizations is Advanced Idea Mechanics, or AIM for short. Let’s take a look at their history and why they’re such a threat.

Marvel’s Avengers is coming September 4th to PC, PS4 and Xbox One. It is also coming to Stadia, PS5 and Xbox Series X

League of Conventions Virtual Event This Weekend August 20, 2020

Multiple conventions that would normally be held in the tri-state area including ConnectiCon, AnimeNEXT and MAGFest are teaming up this weekend to host a virtual event with three days worth of panels starting on August 21st! The event is being called The League of Conventions and we honestly can’t think of a more fitting title. Here’s a quick look at some of the people who will be speaking.

You can check out the event on Twitch. Two streams will be running throughout the day with their own unique content. You can watch all the details about the event including the schedule here.

DC has revealed the details of their virtual Fandome event in this glorious trailer for their Hall of Heroes. Take a look.

You can check out DC Fandome here. You can be certain we will be reporting on the event as the day progresses! And if that isn’t enough for you, the event will continue in September with even MORE content that couldn’t fit in Saturday’s show! Stay tuned for more details about that.

GameStop’s August 2020 Pokemon Pass Event Cancelled August 18, 2020

Just wanted to give you guys a heads up, as I’ve received the official word about this and I would like to spread the word. Multiple organizations have written about a Pokémon Pass distribution happening this month between August 14th and 31st, 2020 at GameStop stores across the US. In fact, my local GameStop even had a sign up about the event.

However, the Pokémon Pass application, which is required to participate in the event, makes no mention of it. After directly contacting The Pokémon Company to ask them why, I received an official response. It turns out The Pokémon Company has officially CANCELLED that event, which is why there is no mention of it in the application.

My guess is they’ll do another method of distributing the crystal remotely. No reason they can’t use something like the Mystery Box function.

People unhappy about this event can rest assured their trip to GameStop is not in vain. The retailer is still doing a physical Pokémon distribution. Anyone who spends a minimum of $15 US on Pokémon TCG products total (so multiple products that add up to that amount will count) will get an exclusive Copperjah TCG Promo Card. That event will conclude on August 21st, 2020. Make sure to call your local store to make sure they are in stock.

Pokémon Pass is out for Android and iOS smart devices.

The First Fifteen Minutes of Control AWE Expansion August 15, 2020

The guys over at Remedy have posted the what they say is going to be the last promotional material before the release of AWE, the second and final DLC expansion for the multiplaform game Control. Here’s the first fifteen minutes of the AWE expansion, with live gameplay.

AWE will release on August 27th, 2020 as part of the game’s Season Pass or for people who purchase the game’s Ultimate Edition. It looks like we have access to a new costume in this expansion, and the current rumor is this outfit unlocks after playing the soon to be released boss rush mode. But that’s not what you want me to talk about is it? Alan Wake is back, baby!

Control is out now for PC, Xbox One and PS4. Control: Ultimate Edition, which will include all of the game’s DLC, is coming August 27th for Steam, and September 10th for PS4 and Xbox One.

Remedy has just announced Control: Ultimate Edition. A combined version of the game that includes all of the previously released DLC and patch updates. Oh, and it’s coming to Steam too! Here’s the official trailer.

You’re not going to need to get this if you already have the game’s Digital Deluxe Edition or Season Pass, but if you’re a new player who hasn’t picked up Control yet (or want to play the game on a different platform), the Ultimate Edition is your best option.

Control: Ultimate Edition is coming to Steam August 26th, 2020. It’s coming to EGS, Xbox One and PS4 on September 10th, 2020.
