Mega Man will soon be coming to Netflix in a live-action adaptation of the classic Capcom video game.

IGN has learned from sources familiar with the project that the Mega Man film is still very early in development. However, it looks as though the streaming giant will bring Mega Man to our screens.

Although the project is yet to be confirmed by Netflix, the film’s production company Supermarché let slip about the partnership during a recent website update.

“Henry, Rel, and their in-house producer Orlee-Rose Strauss maintain an active development slate,” reads the official website. “Features in the works include an adaptation of Capcom's Mega Man for Chernin Entertainment and Netflix, which they wrote and are directing.”

A live-action Mega Man movie was first announced back in 2018 just days after the release of Mega Man 11. Back then, the upcoming feature film was given the working title “MEGA MAN”. Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman were confirmed to both write and direct the movie and it was originally announced for 20th Century Fox.

Although little has been heard about the project since it was first announced, Joost and Schulman confirmed that the movie was still in development last year.

“We are super excited about it,” said Joost. “I think we’re going to have some big news about it soon. I can’t say all that much right now, but it’s a project very near and dear to our hearts and we’re psyched.”

Netflix certainly seems like a natural home for the project, with the company garnering huge success with recent adaptations Castlevania, The Witcher, and League of Legends: Arcane.

To celebrate the holidays and the end of 2021, Netflix is providing its subscribers with a ton of new movies and TV shows to help ring in the new year with their loved ones. From the long-awaited second season of The Witcher and the return of Cobra Kai and Emily in Paris to Benedict Cumberbatch's The Power of Dog and Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence's Don't Look Up, there truly is something for everyone this December.

All eight episodes of Netflix's The Witcher will arrive on December 17 and will see Geralt of Rivia taking Ciri to Kaer Morhen - his home and the place where he became the witcher he is today. Just two weeks later, Cobra Kai returns for a fourth season and will see the Miyagi-Do and Eagle Fang Dojos teaming up to take on Cobra Kai at the All Valley Under 18 Karate Tournament. The stakes have never been higher, as the loser must "hang up their gi."

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: STONE OCEAN Part 1 kicked off the month and brings the latest entry in the world of the long-running JoJo's Bizarre Adventure to all Netflix subscribers. We are happy it did, as we gave it a rare 10/10 review score. In our review, we said, "JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean is another high-octane dose of action-packed duels, surreal situations, and expert storytelling with one of the coolest JoJos yet."

Don't Look Up is another standout film in December, as it sees Leonardo Dicaprio and Jennifer Lawrence as two low-level astronomers trying to warn humankind about an asteroid that is on its way to destroy Earth. Joining these two in Don't Look Up's all-star cast are Cate Blanchett, Meryl Streep, Chris Evans, Jonah Hill, Timothée Chalamet, Ariana Grande, Rob Morgan, and more.

The nominees for the 79th Golden Globe Awards have been announced, with Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast and Jane Campion’s The Power of the Dog leading the pack.

Both Belfast and The Power of the Dog have totted up 7 nominations with both films up for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay.

This year’s nominees were announced by rapper Snoop Dogg and HFPA president Helen Hoehne during an official Golden Globes 2022 livestream on Monday. Belfast landed a long list of nominations including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay along with Best Actor (Jamie Dornan and Ciarán Hinds), Best Actress (Caitriona Balfe), and Best Original Song.

The Power of the Dog also landed Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay nominations, as well as Best Actor (Benedict Cumberbatch), Best Supporting Actor (Kodi Smit-McPhee), Best Supporting Actress (Kirsten Dunst), and Best Original Score.

Marvel and Disney+ also bagged two leading acting award nominations for Elizabeth Olson and Paul Bettany for WandaVision.

Other hot contenders in the film categories include Don’t Look Up, which bagged 4 nominations despite mixed reviews, and West Side Story which was also nominated for 4 awards along with King Richard.

This year’s Best Animated Film is dominated by Disney, with the studio totting up 3 nominations in one category, for Encanto, Luca and Raya and the Last Dragon.

Leonardo DiCaprio has received a nomination for Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy for his role in Don’t Look Up, which is bound to prove divisive. But Kristen Stewart is already taking steps towards that Oscar with her Best Actress nomination for Spencer.

This year’s Golden Globe Awards could be the first that won’t be broadcast live, after NBC pulled out of the awards following backlash over the HFPA’s lack of action when it comes to diversifying its membership. However, the HFPA still plans to hold the ceremony, with the winners potentially announced via press conference.

Meanwhile, Succession has swept the board when it comes to the TV categories, with nominations for Best Drama Series as well as its stars Brian Cox, Jeremy Strong, Kieran Culkin and Sarah Snook. Both Ted Lasso and The Morning Show followed with 4 nominations each. Netflix was also the leading studio this year with a staggering 17 nominations - 12 more than any of its competitors.

For the first time, Ubisoft is supporting an Assassin's Creed game with a second year of paid and free content, as the developer has revealed big plans for Assassin's Creed Valhalla. In addition to a newly announced crossover event featuring two Assassin's Creed protagonists, a major paid DLC expansion is coming to Assassin's Creed Valhalla next year.

Titled Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarok, the story expansion is coming to the game on March 10, 2022, and it will take Eivor to the realm of Norse mythology as the character embraces a new role as the Norse God Odin.

Developed by Ubisoft Sofia, who previously worked on 2014's Assassin's Creed Rogue and The Curse of the Pharaohs DLC for Assassin's Creed Origins, this new DLC story is set to be the franchise's largest yet. Ubisoft says Dawn of Ragnarok contains over 35 hours of gameplay, with a Norse realm to explore that's one-third the size of Valhalla's England.

In this expansion, Eivor drinks a potion that transports them into the world of Svartalfheim, a mythology-infused world under invasion. Here, as Eivor embraces the role of Odin, they set out on a mission to save their son Baldr. Along the way, the player will interact with Dwarves, Frost Giants, and more creatures from Norse mythology.

Dawn of Ragnarok will introduce new hooks into the combat already established in the Assassin's Creed Valhalla base game. For example, a new ability allows the player to absorb power and abilities from defeated enemies, changing the way a battle can play out. One of these abilities will let you resurrect defeated enemies to fight on your side. The DLC's creative director says the supernatural elements play a key role in the gameplay.

"In Dawn of Ragnarok players will experience what [it] feels like to be a God," Mikhail Lozanov of Ubisoft Sofia said. "To harness the powers of defeated enemies is one of the key new additions to the expansion."

Recent Assassin's Creed games have been diving more and more into mythology. Assassin's Creed Origins dove into Ancient Egyptian mythology, while Odyssey saw figures from Greek mythos including Medusa, Cyclops, the Minotaur, and more.

Typically, Assassin's Creed games have wrapped up with post-launch support after the game's first year. With Valhalla, the team is continuing the project onto its second year, a first for the franchise. The devs say this decision is simply because there were more ideas on the table for what to do with Valhalla.

"Since the production of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, we knew we wanted to re-invent our post-launch support as during the previous opuses the team often felt there were more stories or ideas we could have delivered to the player," Jose Araiza of Ubisoft Montreal said. "For this reason, we came up with a plan to deliver on the team's ambitions and things like the festivals and the game modes came to life. Additionally, the reception from the players has been very positive, and seeing that they are still accompanying us is what makes year 2 possible."

We do know that the next mainline game in the series, called Assassin's Creed Infinity, is in development, but Ubisoft has not given any specific details about the project. Rumors indicate the new game is designed to run for years as a live service game, with new content released over time. One could read into this new Valhalla roadmap as testing the waters for the live service concept, but Ubisoft did not comment on the specifics of where the franchise is going from here.

In addition to the major expansion and the crossover event with Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Valhalla players can also check out The Siege of Paris, Wrath of the Druids, and the game's Discovery Tour.

Ubisoft is supporting Assassin's Creed Valhalla with a second year's worth of content, and it kicks off later this week with a big crossover event featuring the return of a fan-favorite character from the Assassin's Creed franchise.

A free content update is coming to Assassin's Creed Valhalla, as well as the previous game in the series, Assassin's Creed Odyssey on December 14 that unites the two timelines. Odyssey protagonist Kassandra will cross paths with Valhalla protagonist Eivor in a new event called, Assassin's Creed Crossover Stories.

The event includes a new quest in both Assassin's Creed Odyssey and Assassin's Creed Valhalla where the encounter between the two characters will be a playable quest. This crossover event means the Viking era of Assassin's Creed Valhalla will come face-to-face with the ancient Greek setting from Assassin's Creed Odyssey.

This quest event is a collaboration between Ubisoft Quebec and Ubisoft Montreal. The devs say they may continue to explore the idea of different classic Assassin's Creed characters meeting each other in new ways.

"The Assassin’s Creed content is connected by characters, lore, locations, eras, motivations and more," said Clémence Nogrix, the Associate Creative Director at Ubisoft Quebec. "We had so much fun imagining how interesting the encounter would be between two of our main Assassin’s Creed heroes, we may want to explore new paths in the future."

As for what that future could look like? We already know of the development of Assassin's Creed Infinity, which is rumored to be a live service game featuring multiple historical eras. This could mean this Kassandra and Eivor team-up could be a taste of what's to come.

Plus, the rumors also point to Ubisoft Montreal and Quebec unifying into one team for Assassin's Creed Infinity, which are the same studios collaborating on the Crossover Stories event. We don't know if this crossover event could be a sign of things to come for the future of the series, but for now, fans can look forward to this crossover event, as well as the major paid expansion coming to Valhalla, Dawn of Ragnarok.

The NPD Group has announced that the Nintendo Switch was the best-selling console in the US during November 2021. Not only that, but the console remains the US' best-selling console of 2021.

In the analyst group's latest data, the Switch was reported as being the best-selling hardware platform in November, both in terms of units sold and dollars spent. 1.13 million consoles were sold during the month, with 550,000 of them sold during Thanksgiving week.

This comes despite a colossal year-on-year decline for hardware sales; November hardware spending is down 38%, to $883m. This is the lowest total since November 2016. This is blamed on a lack of available console inventory, which is a symptom of the ongoing chip shortages.

Senior analyst at Niko Partners, Daniel Ahmad, notes that the PS5 and Xbox sales combined barely equals what Switch has sold in total, and that total sales of PS4, Xbox One, and Wii U back in November 2014 were higher than Switch, PS5, and Xbox Series consoles this November.

If you want to know how bad the supply situation is:

- The Switch sold less than November last year
- PS5 + Xbox barely = what Switch sold in total
- The PS4, XB1 and Wii U (yes Wii U) sold more in Nov 2014 than Switch + PS5 + Xbox Series in Nov 2021. https://t.co/pX6rpKb8Nk

As for games, Call of Duty: Vanguard was November's best-selling game in the US, and has become the second-best selling game of the year. It's second only to its predecessor, 2020's Black Ops Cold War, which has been the biggest game of the year in the US. NDP's analysis notes that this is the fourteenth year Call of Duty has been the best-selling game in its release month.

For more from Nintendo, check out the news that Paper Mario is coming to Nintendo Switch Online, and where PS5, Xbox Series X, and Switch rank among the best-selling consoles.
