Playable Zelda likely isn’t coming in Breath of the Wild 2. I’ve made my peace with that eventuality, even if it could help push the series forward in some truly meaningful ways. When all is said and done, Link is the hero of this story - the Hero of Time if you haven’t heard - and his presence is more than enough to carry an open world adventure we’ll spend hours being enamoured with when it arrives in 2022. Another mystery protagonist could be waiting in the wings, but whether they are related to Zelda remains to be s
The Bad Batch opens with the end of the Jedi in the waning moments of the Clone Wars. It also provides a very different take on a scene from canon Star Wars comics : the escape of Caleb Dume from the clones. Caleb Dume and his master Depa Bilaba are fighting on the planet Kaller against Separatist forces when the Bad Batch comes in to lend a hand. Right as the fighting winds down, Order 66 is given. Dume goes on to be Kanan Jarrus, a major figure in the early Rebellion and one of the lead characters in Star Wars: Rebe
I’ve touched on Breath of the Wild’s ending before, and how it's an almost perfect example of melancholic hopefulness. The evil is vanquished, and now Link and Zelda are tasked with forming a new life together, with rebuilding Hyrule and comprehending what’s next after hundreds of years away from home. Hyrule is both keenly familiar and an unknown quantity, with so much changing over the past century while many of its core fundamentals remain the same. Now they need to move onward and figure out what to do next, carrying all of their past losses on their shoulders while adding further responsibilities to the p
But, assuming that Resident Evil 4 remake is in the works, how should Capcom approach its re-imagining? Well, given that Resident Evil 4 will be the fourth major remake of a mainline Resident Evil game, it stands to be one of the best. The reason for this is that Capcom has already remade the first three Resident Evil games, with each game giving the studio feedback from fans and critics on which elements of the remake did or did not work. Now, based on the reception of each of the Resident Evil remakes, here are the lessons that Capcom should implement in the development of Resident Evil
Yoda was established as one of the few survivors of the great purge in The Empire Strikes Back . Many years later, fans saw how he anticipated the shocking betrayal of the clones on Kashyyk. Among the wisest and most powerful of the Jedi, Yoda lived for nearly a thousand years, training many apprentices, including Count Dooku. Yoda went into exile on Dagobah after the rise of the Empire, biding his time until the right moment to help bring about the return of the J
We only see Princess Zelda fall into a pit in the trailer, presumably descending deeper into the castle’s inner sanctum. Can’t she just climb back out, or is she stuck there until we fish her back out once the final boss is dealt with? I sincerely hope it’s the former, or Nintendo is throwing us a red herring and the true circumstances of the narrative are being cleverly hidden from view. The company has said it’s holding the true title back for Breath of the Wild 2 in fear of spoilers, and the skyward version of Link only ever being framed from the back has convinced me it is another character entir
Grogu steals just about every scene he's in , but as cute and funny as Grogu is, he has a tragic past. Grogu was a Jedi padawan at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant at the time of Order 66. Someone - it remains a mystery who - saved him and whisked him away to safety as Anakin Skywalker led a bloody rampage through the sacred tem
Ever since the release of the Resident Evil 3 remake earlier this year, fans of the survival horror franchise have been wondering which game will be re-imagined next. Although there is still no official confirmation from Capcom, several leakers are claiming that Resident Evil 4 will be Capcom's next remake after the release of Resident Evil 8 sometime next year. Of course, given the popularity of Resident Evil 4 , it is no surprise that this would be the next game that Capcom is eyeing to remake in the fut
Are Resident Evil fans ready for a Code Veronica remake? Is it time for Claire Redfield to return to Rockfort Island in search of her brother, Chris? Many die-hard RE fans appear more than ready to dive into this critically-acclaimed cult-classic once more. And with all the bells and whistles of next-generation gaming consoles, the possible Code Veronica remake can tell its story in stunning 8K clar
Grogu's life after Order 66 is generally a mystery, as is much about him. It's not clear who his master was, or if he had one at the time of the attack. His survival seems to be the result of the kindness and sacrifice of a mysterious benefac
Remaking Code Veronica on next gen consoles would provide this cult classic with a visual update that it has long deserved. It has been over 20 years since the Respawn Entertainment game Modes's initial release in February 2000 on Sega's Dreamcast. Although, visually enhanced in 2011, the graphics don't hold up well to today's standa
