Damian Wayne Batman Game Footage Leaks Online
A recently leaked video is showing in-development footage for a scrapped Batman: Arkham game, centered around the Damian Wayne version of the Caped Crusader.

'It Has More Aura Than Solo Leveling': Fans Believe That This Anime Is Better Than Jinwoo's Story
In the last few years, Solo Leveling has become the quintessential action anime. It is fast-paced, has a ton of fights, and the animation quality is incredible. Solo Leveling has definitely set the bar high, and it's extremely difficult for both new and old action series to match the level. However, an anime from the Summer 2025 lineup is proving that it can go shoulder to shoulder with Solo Leveling.

One Bold Dying Light: The Beast Feature May Be Its Secret Weapon
While many of Dying Light: The Beast's new and improved features are cause for celebration, the inclusion of vehicles stands out as a strong selling point.

One New Borderlands 4 Feature Feels Like a Stepping Stone to Something Bigger
Borderlands 4 fans are, unsurprisingly, focused on its most impactful changes. The open-world has been a key point of discussion coming out of Borderlands 4’s previews, with a fair bit of positivity surrounding it due to just how much it apparently has to offer. Boss farming no longer requiring reloads is a massive win for those who love hunting down the best legendaries, while being able to summon vehicles without a catch-a-ride is a welcome quality-of-life change. Movement has also gotten an overhaul through the addition of double jumps, gliding, and grappling. However, alongside all these significant adjustments, Borderlands 4 is adding a much more subtle traversal option: swimming.
