Do Demons Exist? CBS’ Evil Will Keep You Guessing
All September long, IGN is highlighting the best TV coming your way in the 2019-2020 season. Today we're focusing on CBS' new psychological thriller Evil, created by The Good Wife's Robert and Michelle King, and starring Luke Cage's Mike Colter, Westworld's Katja Herbers, and Person of Interest's Michael Emerson. The series explores the origins of evil along the dividing line between science and religion, centering on a skeptical female psychologist, Kristen Bouchard (Herbers), who joins a priest-in-training (Colter) and a carpenter (Aasif Mandvi) as they investigate the Church's backlog of unexplained mysteries, including supposed miracles, demonic possessions, and hauntings. Their job is to assess if there is a logical explanation or if something truly supernatural is at work. Get an exclusive first look behind the scenes of Evil with the cast, and watch a clip from the series premiere in which Emerson's chilling Leland Townsend reveals that he knows far too much about Kristen's personal life.

Borderlands 3 Is 2K’s Fastest Selling Game Ever
Borderlands 3's publisher 2K says the looter shooter sold over five million copies during its first five days on the market, making it the fastest-selling game in the company's history.
That works out at 50 percent more sales than Borderlands 2 during the same launch window - a game which went on to sell over 22 million units.
The high figures were achieved despite backlash from fans when it was announced the PC version of Borderlands 3 would be an Epic Games exclusive. A press release from 2K announcing the sales records draws attention to the store figures in particular, saying "Borderlands 3 delivered the highest pre-order sales figures to date for a 2K title, as well as broke pre-order records with the Epic Games Store. Initial sales of Borderlands 3 have exceeded the label’s expectations and, in particular, PC sales of the title through the Epic Games Store have been incredibly strong."
