The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) has made significant strides in its ongoing campaign against illegal online gaming, successfully blocking 5,793 of the 7,747 sites detected, which accounts for approximately 74.78% of the total identified.

A Shadow of the Colossus movie has been in the works for more than a decade already, and despite nothing materializing yet, the project’s director has issued a hopeful statement about it. In a recent interview, Andy Muschietti said Shadow of the Colossus is a “masterpiece” and that he’s played it several times. Now, after 10 years, the “possibility of making [the movie] is opening up,” he said.
Muschietti told La Baulera del Coso on Radio TU that he’s been impressed by the script he’s seen, but whether or not he’ll actually get to make the movie may come down to financing.

Now that we’re done with The Final Shape’s world first raid race for Salvation’s Edge in Destiny 2, it’s time to get back to normal weekend activities, and that means the return of the Trials of Osiris. The high-stakes competitive mode is back this weekend, allowing you the chance to go Flawless and earn some serious, one-of-a-kind rewards.

During an earnings call this week, Warner Bros. confirmed that its games division had underperformed in 2024, and going forward, the company plans to refocus efforts on four key IP pillars, including Batman. After Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and MultiVersus led to a $300 million hit to its revenue, Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav explained that Hogwarts Legacy, Mortal Kombat, Game of Thrones, and DC–in particular Batman–will be the company’s focal points.
The other big change here will be a reduced number of games in development, leading to a “steadier” gaming business, Zaslav explained during a financial call.
It’s officially the final Xur weekend of Destiny 2’s Lightfall era, and with The Final Shape launching next week, now is a good time to go on a spending spree. Legendary Shards will be removed once the expansion launches, but what does this mean for Xur?
