Art will soon be imitating life in The Umbrella Academy. A source familiar with the production tells IGN that Elliot Page's characters will come out as transgender in the show's third season, where he will be known as Viktor Hargreeves going forward.

Page tweeted a picture of himself as Viktor on his personal Twitter account which Netflix quote-tweeted and added, “Welcome to the family, Viktor — we’re so happy you’re here.”

Elliot Page came out as transgender in 2020, and Netflix shortly thereafter confirmed that Page will continue to star in the Umbrella Academy, though didn’t offer any additional details at the time. Page starred in the first two seasons of the Umbrella Academy, where he played Hargreeves as a character who is able to conjure the apocalypse through music.

Umbrella Academy is based on a popular series of comic books. While Page's character is not transgender in the comics, this change will align Viktor’s story with Page’s.

In an announcement back in 2020, Page came out as transgender and identified with he/they pronouns. In a public statement Page wrote,

“I feel overwhelming gratitude for the incredible people who have supported me along this journey... I can’t begin to express how remarkable it feels to finally love who I am enough to pursue my authentic self.”

The Umbrella Academy is based on the comic book written by My Chemical Romance singer Gerard Way about a family of superheroes adopted by a noted explorer. The third season will premiere on Netflix on June 22, 2022.

For the first time since its debut in 1979, a Mobile Suit Gundam series will feature a female main character.

The still-unnamed protagonist was revealed in a new teaser for Gundam: The Witch From Mercury, where she was shown alongside her new Mobile Suit — the Gundam Aerial. The anime was announced in September of last year and is now scheduled to air this October.

Bandai Namco released a new teaser trailer for The Witch From Mercury showing the protagonist's short red hair blowing in the wind, and Gundam Aerial booting up towards the end. The series looks to have a modern art style and inspirational music if the trailer is anything to go by.

Produced by studio Sunrise, this is the first Gundam TV show since 2015's Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Oprhans. There will also be a prologue to The Witch From Mercury, which features two other Mobile Suits, Beguir-Beau and Gundam LFRITH. Details about the plot and characters for The Witch From Mecury have not been revealed yet, but more information should be coming later. It's also currently unknown which timeline this series will take place.

Women have played a prominent role in the Gundam multiverse going back to the original series, with some of the most famous examples including Sayla Mass, Emma Sheen, and Christina Mackenzie. However, Gundam's leads have generally been male teenagers who happen to fall into the cockpit of a powerful mobile weapon. It'll be interesting to see how Witch From Mercury changes up the formula after more than 40 years of Gundam stories.

In the meantime, there will be Gunpla for the three Mobile Suits. Gunpla models of Aerial, LFRITH, and Beguir-Beau will be available for purchase at a later date. Bandai Namco is also working on some other Gundam-related projects, including a game called Gundam Evolution, a 6v6 FPS game, and a brand-new Gundam Metaverse.

Capcom has unveiled everything players can expect out of the Street Fighter 5: Champion Edition's final update – including a staggering 79 pages worth of patch notes. Dubbed the "Definitive Update", today's substantial patch has no shortage of fresh content.

The pixel filter pays homage to the series' past by bathing the game in a classic arcade aesthetic that really hammers home the nostalgia, but it’s the cel-shaded filter that truly offers something special. The crisp new visuals of the filter add depth and vibrancy to the game's 45 characters and their various attack animations, and could become a new fan-favorite way to play.

Meanwhile, the 2022 Premier Pass will provide players with costumes for Seth, M. Bison, and Akira, re-colors for all 45 characters, two fighter profile themes, five titles, and 10,000 Fight Money. Capcom is also planning to release new tracksuits for every character over the course of the Capcom Pro Tour.

The most shocking part of today's announcement, however, may be the extraordinary size of the patch notes, which features a wide selection of quality-of-life updates alongside huge changes to every character in the game. With so many alterations to the flow of the game, there will undoubtedly be a significant shift in the meta.

Capcom has clearly gone all out on saying goodbye to its flagship fighting game from the PS4 era, and the team will now presumably focus all of its attention toward the recently-announced Street Fighter 6. Capcom has promised we'll hear more about the sequel in Summer 2022.

Street Fighter 5: Champion Edition's "Definitive Update" goes live between 6pm and 10pm PST today, during which time the game's servers are expected to be unavailable.

In the meantime, Street Fighter 5: Champion Edition will be a part of the EVO 2022 lineup alongside other major titles like Tekken 7, Granblue Fantasy: Versus, and last year's hit, Guilty Gear Strive. The event will be held at Mandalay Bay Resort from August 5 to 7.

Microsoft has announced that March 2022's Games with Gold are Another Sight, Hue, Outpost Kaloki X, and MX vs ATV Alive.

As revealed on Xbox Wire, the four Games with Gold will be available to anyone with Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, with Another Sight and Outpost Kaloki X available on April 1.

Another Sight is a side-scrolling fantasy adventure where players take control of a girl and her cat in a journey beyond reality. It was released in 2019 and takes around five or six hours to complete.

Also available on April 1, but only until April 15, is Outpost Kaloki X, a light-hearted space-station tycoon game with ridiculous characters and stories that released almost two decades ago in 2004.

In our 7/10 review, IGN said it's "an entertaining and surprisingly deep experience. For anyone looking for a quirky, unique experience, it's worth it to shell out to drop this onto your hard drive."

Available later in the month on April 16 is Hue, another game which concludes after around six hours. This 2016 platformer has players change the colour of the environment to solve puzzles, reveal hidden objects, and phase out obstructions.

Being released on the same day but only available for two weeks until April 30 is MX vs ATV Alive. This off-road racing game from 2011 was the fourth in the series and fans of the genre will know what to expect.

In our 6/10 review, IGN said: "MX vs. ATV Alive is plenty of fun, but not nearly as complete or polished as other racers released during this generation."

Be sure to redeem March 2022's Xbox Games with Gold before they leave the service, that includes The Flame in the Flood, Street Power Soccer, Sacred 2: Fallen Angel, and SpongeBob's Truth or Square.

Nintendo announced today that it would be delaying the long-awaited Zelda: Breath of the Wild sequel to Spring 2023, but a brief bit of footage included in the announcement has led to fans across the internet coming together with a common question – what's going on with the Master Sword? Some of them already have intriguing theories.

Today's footage shows Link holding what appears to be a destroyed (melted? Corrupted?) Master Sword near an orb of light, leading many fans to wonder if his quest (or part of it) could end up revolving around reforging the series' classic weapon.

Reddit users Zeldatroid and Capable_Afternoon687 even speculate that a journey to reforge the sword could ultimately be leading up to a final showdown with Ganon to see him defeated once and for all, opening the way for future games to include fresh villains.

More concerning is the question of what could've possibly caused such damage to the series’ all-powerful sword. Malice – a corrupted sentient goo found around Hyrule in Breath of the Wild – reaches out and grabs Link's arm in a previous trailer, which could explain why the character appears to feature an arm cover or prosthesis of sorts in the new footage. It's possible, then, that this attack on Link led to the destruction of the Master Sword as well.

Meanwhile, Ratio01 points out that the scene is similar to the moments in Zelda: Skyward Sword wherein Link bathes the Goddess Sword in sacred flames to help create the Master Sword. Given that references to the Goddess Hylia appears in both Skyward Sword and Breath of the Wild, it's certainly not out of the question that Link could be calling upon her to aid in repairing the sword. If that turns out to be the case, it could make for a powerful and nostalgic moment for franchise fans.

While other fans may eagerly seek out any bit of information they can find, Reddit user Slimehorn keeps things light with a simple joke: "Master Sword now inflicts tetanus." The sword does look pretty dangerous even in its destroyed form, so maybe it's best to stay careful.

Right now, we can only speculate on what lies in store for Link when he sets off on a new expansive adventure in the follow-up to Breath of the Wild, but we'll get a chance to find out when the game launches in Spring of 2023. Hopefully, we'll learn more about the story before then, though.

The sequel to Breath of the Wild (which still doesn't have an official name) was first announced in 2019, and was made because the team for the original game had too many ideas for DLC. We got the original 2022 release window last year, alongside the first gameplay. Nintendo patents have since given us more of a sense of the new mechanics it may introduce.

The sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has been delayed to Spring 2023. We got a tiny piece of new footage in return.

Series producer Eiji Aonuma announced and apologised for the delay in a video (below), saying "in order to make this game's experience something special, the entire development team is continuing to work diligently on this game, so please wait a while longer." No specific reason was given for the delay.

Eiji Aonuma described a little about the game amid the announcement, saying: "As previously announced, the adventure in this sequel will take place not just on the ground as in the previous game, but also in the skies above. However the expanded world goes beyond that, and there will be an even wwider variety of features you can enjoy, including new encounters and new gameplay elements."

Most of that was backed by footage we'd seen before, but one extra bit of footage has been added, showing a closer look at the new tattooed Link(?) we've previously glimpsed, and what seems to be a corrupted or broken version of the Master Sword.

Given that it's a sequel to what we've previously rated as the best game of all time, it's no surprise that Nintendo may want to hold it back and get it exactly right. After all, the original game was delayed too, and Aonuma explained in 2017:

"Every time we make a Zelda, we want to make something new. It’s hard to gauge how long that’s going to take. And it’s also hard to gauge at what point whatever we consider to be new is done. A lot of times what we try to tackle takes a lot longer than anticipated. So that’s why many times the development struggle there is a delay."

I'd imagine we'd hear a similar explanation in this case.

The Uncharted: Fortune Hunter mobile game has been shut down.

Developer Naughty Dog announced the news on Twitter (below), saying the game will no longer be available to download on Android or iPhone devices, and all in-game purchases have been disabled.

Fortune Hunter is a puzzle platformer game that released alongside Uncharted 4: A Thief's End in May 2016, featuring more than 200 levels for series' protagonist Nathan Drake to overcome.

An important notice for UNCHARTED: Fortune Hunter players: pic.twitter.com/rHMLvv7X2L

— Naughty Dog (@Naughty_Dog) March 28, 2022

The game will still be playable in offline mode for those who have it downloaded already, but once users delete the app or change phones, Uncharted: Fortune Hunter will be gone forever.

Despite not making a huge splash in the gaming sphere when it launched and remaining relatively quiet since, the game was fairly well received by users. Its rating on the Apple App Store is a 4.4 out of 5 while on the Google Play Store it has a 3.9 out of 5.

While the Uncharted Movie was released earlier this year, the gaming side of the franchise has been relatively dormant since 2017 when Uncharted: The Lost Legacy was released on PlayStation 4.

It was remastered and re-released in January however, as part of the Legacy of Thieves Collection that also brought Uncharted 4 to the PlayStation 5.

While there's no word on a brand new entry, Uncharted creative director Shaun Escayg recently teased that Uncharted is "a world we want to see more of".
