Atlus held a panel for Persona 4 Revival, its remake of the beloved PlayStation 2 RPG, at Anime Expo 2026 this weekend. During the panel, we learned more about the game, including who will be voicing Rise Kujikawa and which studio created its anime cutscenes.
Where does one of fantasy’s most prolific authors see the industry headed 20 years from now? Brandon Sanderson — author of the Mistborn Saga and Stormlight Archive — recently sat down with fellow writer Joe Abercrombie for a lengthy conversation about everything from industry trends to Sanderson’s ongoing work adapting several of his works. One of the final questions in the video posted June 26 posed by a fan asked specifically about the future of the industry. Sanderson offered a surprising…
Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War – The Calamity isn’t simply another season of the long-running shonen juggernaut, but the culmination of a revival that has dramatically reshaped how fans view the adaptation. After returning in 2022 following a decade-long hiatus, Thousand-Year Blood War has transformed Tite Kubo’s final manga arc into one of the medium’s most visually ambitious action series, with each successive season raising the bar for animation, direction, and cinematic presentation. Following a short stint in U.S. theaters,the first episode…
We used to get movies like this all the time. 1994's Pulp Fiction spurred a wave of imitators from the obvious to the forgotten, where a whole generation of character actors got to chew scenery, be irresponsible with firearms, and rant about pop-culture ephemera while they committed a bunch of dumb crimes. It's as crucial an element to understanding the '90s as Nirvana or the Super Nintendo.
Final Fantasy 4 is a big deal. Not just because it was the series' first Super Famicom-slash-Super Nintendo installment. Not for the debut of the Active Time Battle system, something Square Enix still uses now. And not even because it made fewer overt Star Wars references than usual. (There's still plenty of Star Wars, though.) It's special for how it combines character personalities and abilities with the broader story, something most RPGs and other Final Fantasies rarely do.
The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind is largely considered one of the best role-playing games ever made. You could hardly improve it if you tried. That is, unless, of course, you try to make it more like Square Enix's most impressive MMO. That's right: Final Fantasy 11. As it turns out, there are mods that do exactly that.
Marvel Rivals is notorious for its selection of revealing and asset-enhancing skins. Naturally, with a batch of new swimsuit costumes coming to the Marvel superhero shooter for summertime, developer NetEase Games was bound to get a little risqué. Surprisingly, though, it's Steve Rogers' new beachwear that's drawing the most attention, because Captain America is packing.
Adapting any of Junji Ito's terrifying works has proven to be one of horror’s greatest creative challenges. His stories aren’t frightening simply because of their grotesque imagery, but because they unravel ordinary people through obsession, love, vanity, and compulsion before descending into outright nightmare. That's proven hard to accurately render in animation and, following the disaster that was Adult Swim's Uzamaki, Ito's creative ingenuity is in need of a serious reboot. Based on its Anime Expo premiere, Junji Ito: Strange may…
India's 15-year-old sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi wastes no time in his ODI debut against England as he smashes Hofra Archer and Josh Tongue for two sixes early on in India's innings at Old Trafford.
