Razer Kishi V2 Touts ‘Universal Compatibility’ and a Subscription-Free App

Razer has announced a model refresh of its mobile gaming controller, the Razer Kishi V2, which includes a design overhaul promising "universal compatibility."

The Razer Kishi V2's design ditches its predecessor, which looked like a pair of third-party Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons that split apart after pulling the two tabs on the back, favoring a more simplified design that closely resembles the Backbone One controller for iPhones.

Razer promises the Razer Kishi V2 offers "universal compatibility," even confirming that the device has removable cushions that you can take off if you need to. The removable cushions could be useful for Android phones with thick or weird camera bumps, such as the Google Pixel 6 series.

Simplified design aside, the Razer Kishi V2 also introduces three new buttons: a dedicated Share button below the D-Pad (for screenshots and gameplay capture), two multifunction buttons (located near the Trigger buttons) that you can remap, and an Options button.

Razer also announced today that it is launching a new, free Nexus app. Designed for the Kishi V2 and is promised to allow owners of the controller to get quick access to installed games, adjust the Kishi V2's control settings, or easily live stream their content on YouTube or Facebook. Razer notes that support for Twitch streaming on the Nexus app will be added at a later date.

The Razer Kishi V2 for Android is available now for $99.99, while the iOS version will release sometime this Fall.

Ghostbusters Animated Series in the Works at Netflix

A new Ghostbusters animated series is being developed at Netflix in partnership with Sony Pictures Animation and Ghostbusters: Afterlife duo Jason Reitman and Gil Kenan.

Reitman and Kenan of Ghost Corps, Inc. will executive produce the Ghostbusters animated series, having recently collaborated on the script for last year's live-action feature Ghostbusters: Afterlife, for which Reitman also served as director. However, plot details for the new animated series are being kept securely locked away in the Ghost Trap for now.

News of the Ghostbusters animated series arrives on June 8, otherwise known as Ghostbusters Day, an annual event that celebrates the anniversary of the release date of the original film in 1984. The announcement also kicks off Day 3 of Netflix's Geeked Week, which is shining a spotlight on the streaming service's growing roster of animated projects.

The Ghostbusters phenomenon began in 1984 with the first film, which was directed by Ivan Reitman. In the years since, the franchise has expanded faster than a Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, having spawned various sequels and reboots as well as multiple merchandising tie-ins and animated series' such as The Real Ghostbusters, followed by Extreme Ghostbusters.

Jason Reitman's decades-later legacy sequel Ghostbusters: Afterlife, which continued the Ghostbusters lore from his father's mega-hits Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II, was released last year. The movie starred Paul Rudd, Carrie Coon, Finn Wolfhard, and Mckenna Grace, with appearances from 'Buster originals Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson, and more.

The film has a 63% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and 45 score on Metacritic. We were on the higher end in our Ghostbusters: Afterlife review, giving it a 9/10 in recognition of it being "a delightfully lovely movie that will satisfy those who grew up with Ramis, Hudson, Murray, and Aykroyd" while also making "youngsters fall just as in love with the new generation."

The Ghostbusters universe will expand further with a Ghostbusters: Afterlife sequel, as well as the newly-announced animated series. Reitman and Kenan are expected to reveal more about what audiences can expect from the future of the Ghostbusters franchise throughout today, and we're also keeping a rundown of Everything Announced at Netflix's Geeked Week.

Black Adam Trailer Revealed: First Look at the DC Antihero’s Big Screen Debut

The first trailer for Black Adam is here and it's filled with the kind of bombastic action befitting Dwayne Johnson's long-gestating DC anti-hero. It's our most in-depth look yet at the movie, which has been a decade-plus in the making, and it sets up a tragic backstory for Black Adam, as well as introducing a few members of the first big-screen iteration of the Justice Society of America.

The trailer opens on a peaceful snowy mountain range, and as we hear the dulcet tones of Pierce Brosnan's Doctor Fate begin to speak, a large black spaceship flies through the idyllic locale. "What have your powers ever brought you?" Doctor Fate asks as we see Black Adam within the futuristic ship, covered in liquid inside a containment unit. "Nothing but heartbreak," Fate continues as we see a quick shot of Brosnan's take on the mystical DC superhero. This moment hints that the film will be following one of the key parts of Black Adam lore: millenia ago, Shazam banished the villain into space and it took him 5,000 years to get back to Earth.

So what kind of heartbreak has Teth-Adam suffered? Well, we get a glimpse of that here as we see him in Kahndaq--if the comics lore is to be followed, this would be the aforementioned 5000 years previously--the fictional nation of his birth. "I was a slave until I died," Johnson's voice reveals. "Then I was reborn a god." This is an interesting reveal as it tells us the movie is taking directly from the New 52 era of the character where he was a Kahndaqi slave bestowed with the power of the Wizard Shazam.

Expanding more on his tragic backstory, we then learn that Adam's son sacrificed himself to save his father's life. It feels like this could be a reworking of the Black Adam lore introduced in the Shazam backups featured in the New 52 Justice League series. In that story, Adam's nephew Aman is given the powers of Shazam and shares them to save Adam's life. But when Aman doesn't want to use his newfound strength to kill those who murdered their family, Adam takes the power for himself, killing Aman and saving Khandaq.

However close they stick to that dark backstory, this tragedy will likely be a key part of the movie and an ongoing thread for what drives Adam and his choices, both good and bad. During the Q&A, director Jaume Collet-Serra and Johnson both spoke about the importance of family to the movie and to the "why?" of Black Adam that's introduced in dynamic and tragic fashion here.

"Now I kneel to no one!," Adam exclaims as we see the previously shared footage of him levitating as a black ops group shoots at him, their bullets bouncing off his iconic comic book cloak. It's not all doom and gloom, though, as we're reminded that "in this world there are heroes" and we get our first proper looks at Hawkman (Aldis Hodge) and Atom Smasher (Noah Centino), the former in his comics-accurate, gold-winged garb and the latter in giant mode running through a city. We also see Doctor Fate in his classic golden helmet with his powers manifesting as golden cracks appear in the sky. It's an exciting moment that'll get JSA fans extremely pumped.

But where there's light there's also dark, so of course there are villains too as the voiceover reminds us. Now who exactly the villain of this movie is remains a mystery, but it's likely Adam will begin as an antagonist who becomes an unlikely ally to the JSA. However, not all the members are happy about the situation, especially Hawkman.

In what will undoubtedly become one of the most talked about moments of the trailer, Black Adam faces down Hodge’s timeless Egyptian hero who tells him, "Heroes don't kill people." There's a beat before Adam says the explosive--yet very honest--words that will launch a thousand fan conversations: "Well, I do." That shouldn't come as a surprise to comic book fans but it might to casual viewers who are used to their superheroes being... well, super.

Black Adam's history is fraught and violent but it's also wacky – as are so many Golden Age characters – and we get a nice nod to that when he gets hit in the head Roger Rabbit-style with a bar that does no damage. Cut to his assailant being punched comically high into the sky. It's one of the most tantalizing hints at the tonal shifts that'll be key to capturing Black Adam in all his shades of gray.

The trailer ends with another glimpse of Doctor Fate and a final show of power by Black Adam, who catches a rocket in front of two very confused and impressed witnesses in a minivan. Who was shooting it at him? Well, that's the big question we're left with after this trailer. Could it be that the only antagonist is Black Adam? Unlikely as there's a threat so great that Doctor Fate is putting together the Justice Society of America, so what could that threat be? We'll have to wait and see as we get closer to the release of what the creative team is calling the DC "disruptor."

Black Adam hits theaters on October 21, 2022.

New Silent Hill Movie May Be in the Works

As rumors keep swirling about a return to for the games, a new Silent Hill movie may also be in the works.

During an interview with Jeux Video (translated via ComicBook.com) Christopher Gans – who directed the first Silent Hill movie – teased that a new entry could be released as soon as 2023. It seemingly won't be a sequel.

“I'm currently working on it,” he said of a third Silent Hill movie. “The script for a new Silent Hill movie that is totally independent from the two previous movies made and respects the way Silent Hill has evolved.”

“Silent Hill is a bit like Twilight Zone, the Fourth Dimension, a place where anything and everything can happen,” he said. “I worked on a new Silent Hill which is a Silent Hill of the year 2023 since the film would be released next year… in 2023… and not a Silent Hill as I imagined it in 2006.”

That’s quite a surprise given the lack of interest in the films. The original Silent Hill made just $100 million on a budget of $50 million, with its sequel, Silent Hill: Revelation, doing even worse both critically and at the box office. But Gans believes the franchise can evolve.

“It is a Silent Hill for today's audiences while being ultra-respectful of the saga,” he added. “I am aware that Silent Hill is a very great video game franchise and a work of art in the noble sense of the term. The people who thought up Silent Hill put a lot of their guts into it.”

To date, there has been no official announcement about a third Silent Hill film. Equally, we have no idea who might star in the upcoming movie. But Gans asserts that Silent Hill 3 would reflect the changing face of modern horror.

“For me, it was important to design a Silent Hill in the light of the current public,” he explained. “It is clear that today's horror cinema no longer resembles the horror cinema of 2006. Good for that matter. Not that 2007 horror cinema wasn't good, but every genre is going through an evolution.”

“I'm trying to take into account what I've been able to see recently,” he added, “which is more original and more surprising in terms of horror films, and to see if in Silent Hill there are the seeds, or even the expression, of that. Silent Hill has always been a game beyond the norm and ahead of its time.”

It's interesting timing, given how many rumors we've seen in recent years about a return to the Silent Hill franchise in games. Reports have stated that the franchise will see at least two new games, said that Polish developer Bloober Team could be working on a Silent Hill 2 remake, and we've even seen leaked screenshots of what could be a new game.

It's possible that franchise owner Konami isn't just planning a return to the games, but the movies as well. In the meantime, read more about Silent Hill with IGN’s review of the original film, and find out why its sequel is on our list of the worst video game movies of all time.

Paramount Chief Says New JJ Abrams Star Trek Is ‘Close To the Starting Line’

Paramount Chief Brian Robbins has given an update on JJ Abrams' new Star Trek movie, revealing that they're currently "deep into it" and edging closer to the "starting line."

Robbins announced the new Star Trek film with Abrams at Paramount's Investor Day in February, but it's been relatively quiet on the bridge ever since. In a recent interview with Variety, however, Robbins confirmed that steady progress is being made on the movie and they're "excited" about the direction in which it is going, now that the Kelvin crew is on board.

"We're deep into it with J.J. Abrams, and it feels like we're getting close to the starting line and excited about where we're going creatively," Robbins revealed before explaining why they decided to bring back Chris Pine and the rest of the Kelvin universe cast. "I'm a research nerd, and what the data tells me is that the audience wants that cast in this movie."

The last we heard, talks were underway with Chris Pine to reprise his role as James T. Kirk in the next Abrams-produced Star Trek film, with the intention of also bringing back the rest of the cast from the reboot trilogy, including Zachary Quinto as Spock, Zoe Saldana as Lieutenant Uhura, Karl Urban as Bones, John Cho as Sulu, and Simon Pegg as Scotty.

Filming was scheduled to start in late 2022 and it sounds like they may be on target to set their phasers to stun and start the cameras rolling before the end of the year, under the direction of Matt Shakman, who apparently inspired fresh interest in the Star Trek franchise following his much-talked about run on Disney Plus' WandaVision miniseries.

The Star Trek script is being written by Josh Friedman and Cameron Squires, based on a prior draft by Lindsey Beer and Geneva Robertson-Dworet. Plot details are being kept under wraps for now, but the original concept for the fourth Star Trek saw Captain Kirk contending with the legacy of his own father, who heroically sacrificed himself aboard the USS Kelvin during battle.
