You are always in time to binge-watch and get hooked. You won’t regret it, truly

The official trailer of the season reveals not only plot developments but also a notable change in the tone of the series. Mark, who tries to balance his life as a high school student with his responsibilities as a superhero, is forced to mature quickly after the revelation about the true nature of his father, Omni-Man. This dilemma adds an emotional layer to his evolution as a character.

Throughout the series, which follows the work of Robert Kirkman, multiple plots are explored in a non-linear manner, allowing for extensive character and conflict development. Season 3 will air weekly without breaks, culminating on March 13, and continues the narrative of a world full of action and graphic violence, but also of human moments and self-deprecating humor. The series is known for its ability to mix these elements while leading its characters to face the consequences of their powers.

Fans can also rest easy, as Invincible has been renewed for a fourth season. Robert Kirkman, the creator, has expressed his desire to extend the series to the seventh or eighth season, suggesting that there is much more to explore in this universe. With a rich narrative and complex characters, Invincible remains a fresh twist on the superhero genre, capturing the attention of both fans and those seeking a meaningful story in the realm of animated entertainment. And luckily, it seems we have Invincible for a while.

They announce the crowdfunding for a well-known franchise’s AAA game because there is no shame anymore

Is a crowdfunding really necessary to release a title from a well-known franchise? Aren’t they simply skipping several steps of the process?

On paper, the idea of crowdfunding is great: people giving money to things they love but that very few people know about for one reason or another. Fanzines, albums, video games… Indie in general should embrace Kickstarter as a way to move forward and have a direct relationship with their fans. However, recently artists like Brandon Sanderson have used it to have a mass appeal and raise a lot of money for their products, which were already going to make a lot of money. And it raises certain doubts.

Omni-man, take us all

And it is that Skybound has fully entered crowdfunding, asking fans for money to make “the best possible video game” of Invincible, Robert Kirkman’s comic converted into a magnificent series for Prime Video. And mind you, I have no doubt that the game will be incredible and will have great ideas, but… Is it really necessary to crowdfund to release a title from a well-known franchise? Aren’t they simply skipping several steps along the way?

And how far can we go with this trend? Will there ever be a ‘Call of Duty’ one day that asks its fans for money? For now, ‘Invincible’ has raised almost $500,000 from 167 people in less than a day, and there are only 13 days left to “invest” in the game. Considering that the minimum they ask to enter is one hundred dollars, I’m not sure if we’re facing a great deal.

If you don’t want to put money into the crowdfunding, don’t worry, because the game will be released, no matter what. This is just support for, according to them, a game that is “anything but indie”. In other words, “lots of production, an eight-octane bloodbath. What do you say? Guts, gore, and the glory of potential investors?. If it’s so not indie, the truth is, the only question we should ask ourselves is… Is it really worth it for them to go begging from house to house? Either it’s not so indie… or they’re pulling our leg.

The most brutal character from Prime Video arrives in Mortal Kombat 1, train included

Mortal Kombat 1 has been a success and they are looking to make it even more so, now adding one of the most brutal characters on Prime Video to their roster

Mortal Kombat 1 has been a success, even if its Switch version had issues that went beyond the humorous. But it’s undeniable that, on current-generation consoles, the game is a luxury. Graphically spectacular, gameplay-wise interesting, and with content arriving at a constant pace, the game has managed to find a space to shine, even when the entire pie seemed already divided between Street Fighter and Tekken. Something that will also be aided by its new cameo.

NetherRealm Studios has finally revealed the trailer for the first playable character they will include in the game. One that will also be a familiar face for those who have watched Invincible, the popular animated series on Prime Video. It’s none other than Omni-Man, the popular superhero voiced by J.K. Simmons.

In the trailer, we get to see Omni-Man’s combat style, which is exactly what we would expect from him. It’s dry, direct, and brutal, with no concessions to elegance or anything resembling robust technique. It’s pure brute force, unleashed speed, and of course, savage fatalities, including a scene involving a train that Invincible fans will instantly recognize, with more than a few looking on in genuine horror.

Omni-Man will arrive in November as the first playable character of the Kombat Pack, which is priced at 40 euros. However, he can also be purchased separately for a price yet to be determined. Mortal Kombat 1 is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Switch, and PC.
