We've gotten our first look at Grand Theft Auto 5 as a PS5 game.

Seen in action at today's PlayStation Showcase event, the PS5 remaster of Grand Theft Auto 5 will see Michael, Franklin, and Trevor back on the streets of Los Santos, and looking better than ever. The new trailer also points to a March 2022 release date, a delay from the previously-announced November 11, 2021 date.

When it arrives with an upgrade for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, it will mark the third generation of consoles GTA 5 has been released on. The upgrade applies to both the single player game, and GTA Online. Before that, we're also expecting to see surprises related to the 20th anniversary of GTA 3 on October 22.

Mysterious Square Enix and Luminous Productions action-RPG Forspoken has shown off a little more of its world and gameplay in a new trailer, and revealed that the game will release in Spring 2022.

Revealed at today's PlayStation Showcase event, the new Forspoken trailer introduces us to lead character Frey as she enters the gorgeous (but dangerous) world of Athia.

According to a PlayStation blog post, "Frey is a directionless, gritty yet street smart young woman who has persevered despite her rough upbringing in New York City. And her life hasn’t really gotten any easier now that she’s about to turn 21. Things take a turn for the unexpected when she’s magically transported to Athia, a land where fantasies and nightmares are suddenly very real."

As Frey, who's voiced by Charlie's Angels star Ella Balinska, players will harness magical abilities to defeat monsters across the land, in addition to contending with the Tantas, the "destructive and twisted all-powerful matriarchs who have dominion over Athia."

In addition to Balinska, Forspoken will also feature the voices of Jonathan Cake as Frey's companion Cuff, Janina Gavankar as Tanta Sila, Keala Settle as Johedy, and Monica Barbaro as Auden.

Forspoken was announced as Project Athia in 2020, and was subsequently given a formal title in March. It's one Square Enix is hoping to make an impression with, its stated goal being to include the highest quality visuals in any open world game to date. Forspoken will also be a PS5 console exclusive for at least 2 years.

Borderlands spin-off Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is releasing on March 25, 2022.

Announced with a new trailer at today's PlayStation Showcase event, the game will come to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X, and PC early next year.

We also saw our first look at gameplay, giving us a taste of how the Borderlands spin-off will look in action. We saw lots of guns, new fantasy-based moves, unique enemies, and more.

Wonderlands brings a fantasy-flavored twist to a Borderlands approach. First announced at E3 2021, we've so far had a breakdown of its weapons, loot, and enemies, but this marks our first taste of how it all fits together in the game itself.

After being announced earlier this week, Alan Wake Remastered was officially shown off in a trailer during today's PlayStation Showcase, with a release date set for October 5, 2021. It will include both the base the game and its two story expansions, The Signal and The Writer.

While revealed during a PlayStation show, it was previously confirmed that Alan Wake Remastered would come to PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC through the Epic Games Store. In fact, the Epic Games Store is where rumors of a remaster were kicked off this June.

It was also confirmed today that the PS4 version will offer both a Performance and Quality mode, the latter of which runs at 60fps while the former runs at 4K and 40fps. Meanwhile, the PS5 version will run at 4K and 60fps.

This official date reveal comes days after leaked listings had already pointed toward an October 5 release, and a remaster is throwing more fuel on the speculative fire that Remedy is working on a full sequel.

During today's PlayStation Showcase, you would have been forgiven for not recognizing the second game shown: Project Eve. It's an upcoming hack-and-slash action title that's largely flown under the radar up til now, but an extended trailer shown today gave a better look at its combat, story, and beautiful musical accompaniment.

Project Eve has been known about for a while now, having been announced way back in 2019 with a teaser from its developer, Korean studio Shift Up, which is founded by Blade & Soul character designer Kim Hyung Tae.

Its story follows a young woman existing in a post-apocalypse, at one point in the trailer learning about what a subway system used to be through a friendly voice in her ear. In a broken world that mankind has fled, Eve explores and fights off strange monsters called NA:tives who have invaded earth.

Via the PlayStation blog, we also learned that the PS5 version of this game will take advantage of haptic feedback for its combat combos, and intends to "take full advantage" of the PS5's graphical power.

Though shown in the PlayStation Showcase, Project Eve was also originally announced for Xbox One and PC, so we'll likely see it on those platforms eventually as well. Unfortunately, the trailer today did not give any new information about a release date or window, so we may have to wait a while before we learn more about what Project Eve is all about.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is being remade for modern consoles. It will be coming to PlayStation 5 as a console exclusive at launch alongside a PC release, with other consoles possibly to be revealed at a later date.

Knights of the Old Republic is consistently ranked as one of the best RPGs ever made, and it sits atop our list of the ten best Star Wars games. Originally developed by BioWare, KOTOR helped inaugurate a new era of PC RPGs on console. Its announcement during Sony's PlayStation Showcase is somewhat ironic given that it was a top Xbox exclusive back in the day.

Knights of the Old Republic was first reported to be in development back in April by multiple outlets. Its announcement comes as part of Sony's PlayStation showcase, and is confirmed to be early in development, though an official blog post indicates also that work has been happening on the title "for a little while" in close collaboration with Lucasfilm Games. Orion Kellogg, executive producer at Lucasfilm Games, and Ryan Treadwell, lead producer at Aspyr, say that the team is taking its time to balance the weight of fan expectation, authenticity to the original, as well as any necessary changes or updates.

“This is something that is important and impactful,” said Treadwell. “Our big goals on this are to bring the story to a modern audience and have it be just as impactful today as it was for players when it originally launched.”

He added the project includes some powerhouses, such as Jennifer Hale returning to voice Bastila, and developers with experience on the remake of Demon's Souls and Ghost of Tsushima, and lead gameplay designer Matt Berner, who worked on Dragon Age: Inquisition. And, of course, many developers from the original KOTOR team.

“We can say, ‘What were you trying to do and why did you do it this way? Let’s make sure that we have the same goals in mind as we re-approach it this time,’” said Kellogg. “We’re just going to be able to do more things with asset variety and fidelity and storytelling that just weren’t possible then, but are still going to meet the same goals.”

KOTOR does not yet have a release date.

Square Enix has unveiled Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars, the next project from Nier's Yoko Taro.

Taro collaborators like Yosuke Saito, Keiichi Okabe, and Kimihiko Fujisaka are also on the project. Saito and Okabe work on the Nier series, while Fujisaka has worked on the Drakengard franchise.

The game is described as a table-top RPG video game built of cards. A short teaser was revealed on Twitter, but it is light on details other than the title and the creators involved.

While it's called a table-top RPG, it's still apparently a video game.

Open your mind and let your story unfold.

From the creative minds of YOKO TARO, Yosuke Saito, Keiichi Okabe and Kimihiko Fujisaka, #VoiceOfCards The Isle Dragon Roars is a unique table-top RPG video game built of cards.

Last month, Yoko Taro confirmed he was the creative director of a brand-new Square Enix game, during a press conference for Nier Replicant ver. 1.22474487139. He didn't say much about the game, besides saying his new project was, “difficult to explain,” and a “somewhat unusual game.” Seems on brand.

Taro is also the director of Nier Reincarnation, a mobile game that takes place in the same universe as the mainline Nier games. At the time of its release, Square Enix said it is important to make mobile games the same quality as console games to get the Western audience to accept them.

Do you want to drive down the highway in your very own post-apocalyptic vehicle outfitted with machine guns and spikes? Because the cars from Mad Max: Fury Road are up for auction if you are.

From September 25th to 26yh, auction house Lloyds has put up several vehicles from 2015’s Mad Max: Fury Road up for sale including Max’s Interceptor, Furiosa’s War Rig, and The Doof Wagon — a truck outfitted with dozens of amps, though a flamethrower guitar player is not included.

In total Lloyds has 13 vehicles from George Miller’s 2015 classic up for sale, so if you have the garage space or are attempting a mad dash across the desert while escaping a post-apocalyptic warlord consider placing a bid.

Mad Max: Fury Road is a sequel and soft-reboot of Miller’s iconic Mad Max franchise. Set in a post-apocalyptic world where the oceans have dried up and barbarians take over the wasteland, cars become an important commodity and weapon.

Tom Hardy plays Max Rockatansky, taking over the role from Mel Gibson, who previously played the character from 1979 to 1985.

However, the star of Fury Road is arguably Furiosa played by Charlize Theron. An imperator under the tyrant Immortan Joe, Furiosa rescues Joe’s wives and attempts to flee across the desert with the help of Max.

A Furiosa prequel movie is in the works with Anya Taylor-Joy taking over the role from Theron. Taylor-Joy reportedly impressed Miller after a recommendation by director Edgar Wright, who cast Taylor-Joy in his upcoming film, Last Night in Soho.

The auction isn't in full swing until later this month so expect those current $1 bids for the cars to go up.

Amazing Fantasy #15 — which features the first-ever appearance of Spider-Man — has sold for a record-breaking $3.6 million in a new auction, making it the most expensive comic book ever sold.

As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, the $3.6 million sale occurred during Heritage Auctions’ Signature Comics & Comics Art auction. The price tag has now beaten the record for the most expensive comic book sale which was previously held by Action Comics #1, featuring the first appearance of Superman.

An Action Comics #1 sold earlier this year took the record after selling privately for $3.25 million, but Amazing Fantasy #15's $3.6 million sale now takes the top spot.

This $3.6 million comic is graded at CGC 9.6 and is one of four of these comics that exist at such a near-mint condition. THR's report states that no CGC 9.8 copies exist and considering that CGC 9.8 is the next condition grade above CGC 9.6, no better-condition copy of Amazing Fantasy #15 will ever be sold.

Amazing Fantasy #15 was written by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, who also penciled and inked the comic. Stan Goldberg was the colorist for the comic and Artie Simek was the letterer. If you're familiar at all with the origins of Spider-Man in movies, games, and the like, you're already basically familiar with the origin of Spider-Man in this comic.

Peter Parker is bitten by a highly radioactive spider while visiting General Techtronics Laboratories East. This gives him the Spider-Man strength and agility seen in movies, games, and elsewhere. He fights a wrestler to win some money and then later creates a proper Spider-Man costume (the classic red and blue suit), his spider web fluid, and two web-slinger wrist attachments that he can use to sling around New York City.

This record-breaking comic book sale comes at a time when another form of entertainment media, video games, is also breaking similar records. Just last month, a rare copy of Super Mario Bros. sold for $2 million, making it the most valuable video game collectible ever. That Super Mario Bros. sale occurred just months after a similar copy of the game sold for $660,000.

In between that $660,000 sale and the $2 million sale, a copy of The Legend of Zelda sold for $870,000, briefly holding the record for the most expensive game ever sold. Less than a week after that, a sealed copy of Super Mario 64 sold for $1.56 million.

It seems for now, though, that rare comics are more valuable than rare video games. Who knows though? A $4 million sale of SSX Tricky could be just around the corner in this day and age — ok, not really, but that game is really good.

Sony is reportedly planning to revive the Twisted Metal video game series seemingly alongside the franchise's upcoming TV show.

In a recent video on Giant Bomb, GamesBeat's Jeff Grubb said he's heard that a Twisted Metal revival is in the works, but it still may be a ways off. VGC reports that they've also heard a new Twisted Metal game is on the way.

A Twisted Metal TV show was confirmed back in 2019. It's one project in a larger push from Sony to turn more of its IP into movies and television shows.

Shawn Layden, who was Chairman of SIE Worldwide Studios at the time, said, "We looked at what Marvel has done in taking the world of comic books and making it into the biggest thing in the film world. It would be a lofty goal to say we’re following in their footsteps, but certainly we’re taking inspiration from that." Layden has since left Sony, but the strategy appears to remain intact.

Other projects currently in the works include The Last of Us TV show on HBO, the Uncharted movie starring Tom Holland, and a Ghost of Tsushima movie from the director of John Wick.

There hasn't been a mainline game in the series since 2012's Twisted Metal reboot. Around the same time, there was word of a Twisted Metal movie that never came to fruition. However, we thought the game was 'amazing' in our Twisted Metal review, saying, "Like its predecessor from more than 15 years ago, Twisted Metal celebrates an eccentric kind of action that shoves fun down the collective throat of the gaming masses."
