After announcing the product back in January at CES, Samsung has finally shared a release date and price for its massive 55-inch curved gaming monitor: the Odyssey Ark, which will release in early September for a steep retail price of $3,499.99.

The Odyssey Ark features a 16:9 4K panel with a stand that supports pivot, tilt, and rotation. Samsung also confirmed that the Odyssey Ark can be mounted to the wall with a VESA mount.

The monitor also includes four HDMI 2.1 ports, meaning this monitor is great for those that own a PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and/or an Nvidia RTX 30 series graphics card.

In addition to the display, the Odyssey Ark also features a dial that can control various features on the monitor, such as the screen size, ratio, and game settings.

Odyssey Ark also includes some other interesting gaming-focused things you would not expect from a monitor, such as a Neural Quantum Processor Ultra and built-in support for Samsung's Gaming Hub, allowing you to access cloud gaming services, such as Xbox Cloud Gaming and Nvidia GeForce Now.

In my time with the Odyssey Ark, I found that the monitor does the work of three monitors and the 16:9 aspect ratio provides ample opportunities for gaming and multitasking. For more, check out IGN's hands-on preview.

Spider-Man Remastered's PC release has proved successful for Sony, becoming the second biggest PlayStation Studios Steam launch so far, falling only behind God of War.

As reported by Eurogamer, Spider-Man's release on Steam has outperformed Horizon Zero Dawn and Days Gone, reaching an all-time peak of 66,436 players according to SteamDB. God of War's PC debut saw an all-time peak of 73,529 players, while Zero Dawn and Days Gone achieved 56,557 and 27,450 respectively.

It's a good sign for PlayStation's move into PC publishing. Sony has recently purchased PC porting specialist Nixxes and established a new PlayStation PC label as part of a push to move the company's much-love exclusives to Steam. The company expects to make $300 million from PC games alone in its next fiscal year.

Following in Spider-Man's footsteps is spin-off title Miles Morales, which is expected to be released on PC later this year.

The Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection may challenge both Spider-Man and God of War when it arrives on PC later this year – the Uncharted series had sold 41 million copies on PlayStation alone as of 2017.

To see the remastered web-slinging in action, be sure to watch IGN's performance review of Spider-Man on PC versus PS5, or for those gaming on the game, check out the game running on Steam Deck.

In our 8/10 review of the original PS4 version of Spider-Man, IGN said: "Occasionally stuck in a web of familiar open-world trappings, Insomniac's Spider-Man is still a spectacular adventure."

A new MultiVersus advert hints at two new additions – Black Adam and Stripe from Gremlins.

The advert, which has been shared across social media, shows off some new artwork for the hit online platform fighter, with DC’s Black Adam and the iconic Stripe from Gremlins appearing as part of the game’s line-up.

To date, neither of these characters has been confirmed by MultiVersus developers.

A recently leaked roster of upcoming characters mentioned both Black Adam and Stripe, which now gives a certain legitimacy to the rest of the list. Black Adam is about to make his big screen debut in the upcoming solo film starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as the titular DC antihero.

Meanwhile, Stripe was the main antagonist from the first Gremlins movie – originally a cuddly mogwai who was spawned from Gizmo after the creature was accidentally splashed with water. After eating food after midnight, Stripe and his band of murderous mogwai turn into Gremlins. There’s no sign of Gizmo in the ad, but he was mentioned in the leaked roster.

Black Adam and Stripe are just the latest additions to MultiVersus, which officially launches its first season today with the addition of Morty to the line-up coming later this week. After the season was delayed, it looks as though MultiVersus will be drip-feeding new content throughout the season, so we could see Black Adam and Stripe appear in the coming weeks.

A new Avatar: The Last Airbender console game called Quest for Balance is seemingly in development, after various versions of it appeared on Amazon Japan listings.

As reported by Nintendo Everything, a Nintendo Switch version of the game has been listed on the website with a November 8 release date. Listings for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox One versions can also be found, implying that Quest for Balance will be a console game released across most platforms.

The listings on Amazon Japan are for an imported English version, meaning the game will seemingly be released with a North American audience in mind, and while storefront release dates are subject to change, November 8 is an unusually specific date for a placeholder.

Quest for Balance is apparently being published by Game Mill Entertainment, the company behind several Nickelodeon tie-in games such as Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl and Nickelodeon Kart Racers. Given that Avatar: The Last Airbender is a Nickelodeon property, it would certainly make sense that it would be working on the title.

Game Mill is a self-professed publisher of 'casual games', so don't expect this to be a wildly ambitious affair. The studio's other games include Cobra Kai: The Karate Kid Saga Continues, American Ninja Warrior Challenge, and Nerf: Legends, a first person shooter that IGN said was "painful" in our 2/10 review.

Nothing else has been announced about Quest for Balance, with more information likely coming when (and if) the game is officially announced. Another Avatar: The Last Airbender game called Avatar: Generations was announced for mobile just last week, an open world RPG with squad based battles taking place across different generations of the Avatar world.

Squirrel With a Gun is an upcoming Steam game built in Unreal Engine 5 that has taken the internet by storm because it stars a squirrel with... well... a gun.

Squirrel with a Gun is being developed by Dan DeEntremont, and early footage of the game showcases the titular squirrel running through a town with normal-sized guns chasing unsuspecting people and taking down Agents using various weapons.

— IGN (@IGN) August 13, 2022

The game will also let you parry attacks to disarm enemies and use the recoil of the guns to fly through the air and cross big gaps you wouldn't be able to cross with your squirrel skills alone. If you are feeling extra mischievous, you can even rob the residents of your neighborhood of their phones, cake, and more.

Squirrel With a Gun's first trailer also shows what appears to be adorable hats and accessories you can put on your gun-toting furry friend and puzzles in a secret lab that reward you with a delicious and digital-looking nutty treat.

The video game genre of animals causing chaos in the world looks to have a new contender and one that will one day join the likes of Untitled Goose Game, Goat Simulator, and more. As for when that day will be? DeEntremont is currently saying on the game's Steam page that Squirrel With a Gun's planned release date is "good question!" This means it may be sometime before we can become this legendary rodent.

MGM has ended its partnership with Universal Pictures and has chosen Warner Bros. as the new studio to release its upcoming films internationally, except for the next James Bond film and a couple of others.

As reported by Variety, this new deal will cover all future movies from MGM, but Universal Pictures International will still handle the international rollout of the 26th James Bond film, Till, and Women Talking.

MGM's agreement with Universal led to some big successes overseas, including House of Gucci's $100 million, Licorice Pizza's $15 million, and No Time to Die's $613 million. Prior to working with Universal, MGM partnered with Sony Pictures International to distribute the first four 007 films starring Daniel Craig. Following Bond 26, Warner Bros. will help lead the spy charge.

The first two films that will be part of this deal will be Luca Guadagnin's cannibal thriller Bones and All and Creed III, which are set to arrive in theaters on November 23, 2022, and March 3, 2023, respectively.

As for how this partnership will work, "MGM and Warner Bros. Picture Group will collaborate on marketing and advertising, publicity, film distribution and exhibitor relations on behalf of MGM’s future slate of theatrical releases outside North America (including China), with the team at Warners responsible for execution."

This news comes at a busy time for Warner Bros. and Warner Bros. Discovery, the latter of which is dealing with the fallout of choosing not to release Batgirl, deciding how to handle Ezra Miller's legal troubles, and much more.
