According to Redanian Intelligence, the new spinoff is currently in development and will chronicle the adventure of a group of young Nilfgardians known as The Rats.

According to the books, The Rats are a group of misfits that take Ciri in after she is separated from Geralt in the books....
The good news is that Netflix has finally started testing the service. The bad news is that it’s exclusive to Netflix Poland for now. When is Netflix’s gaming service coming to other territories? Netflix’s plan to become (funnily enough) the Netflix of gaming is no secret. As part of its intensified effort to capture more audiences and expand its reach, Netflix is tapping into an entirely different industry. Although there were earlier reports that Netflix was working with PlayStation in its latest venture, it appears that Netflix is going at it alone in its initial test run....
Netflix has indeed come up with an ad-supported subscription tier. The streaming giant announced today that the new package will be arriving this November. It may be a move to undercut a similar offering from rival streaming provider Disney+ that is reportedly going to be implemented in December. The move by Netflix is also in response to its stagnating growth numbers. The streaming giant has been steadily losing subscribers as rivals are eating up the market share that was once dominated by Netflix....
PvE, which is a short term for “Player versus Environment”, was first introduced to Modern Warfare 2 starting with the Escape from Tarkov-inspired mode, DMZ.

Adding the series-first Raid content for the latest Call of Duty game suggests Activision Blizzard and Infinity Ward are more open to taking the PvE route than ever....
It isn’t clear when this feature will make the jump to the publicly released main channel updates available to all users, but it might be a while - the Alpha Skip-Ahead ring is the deepest, foremost ring of the Insider hierarchy.

After them, several other rounds of testing follow before a full release....
Team Xecuter is a hacking group allegedly led by Bowser, described by Nintendo in the lawsuit as a “an international pirate ring”. They specialized in developing, manufacturing and selling “modchips” for the Switch, which are small custom PCBs designed to be installed inside the console to circumvent the hardware’s security measures, allowing the use of pirated games. The modchip business is a pretty big deal, with pirating games on consoles being much harder than on PC....

Make no mistake, the games are very much welcome. We even included Darksiders Genesis in our round-up of the best non-Diablo dungeon crawlers. However, all these games have done is build up the anticipation for the four-player co-op title. To date, there’s no news yet if the four-player Darksiders game is in development. But, if it’s any consolation, some recent concept art might have just confirmed that the studio is working on a new Darksiders game....
Case in point, the disparity between the March and April lineup with May. After giving PlayStation Plus subscribers Final Fantasy VII and Days Gone in March and April, respectively, Sony’s lineup for May was a bit of a disappointment, with Battlefield V as its main highlight. While Battlefield V was and still is a well-reviewed game, it wasn’t built with cross-play in mind. Thus, years after its release, it doesn’t have the healthy player base needed to make it a fun game to play in multiplayer in 2021....

It’s been more than 20 years since we first heard Russel Crowe’s Maximus Decimus Meridius mention his now-iconic line in theaters and put on a masterful performance in 2000’s epic historical drama, Gladiator.

At the same time, it also received several nominations and won a handful of awards, including five at the 73rd Academy Awards....

Sam Raimi’s initial Spider-Man trilogy from the 2000s was a seminal project that effectively solidified the status of comic book movies as blockbuster hits. Unfortunately, following the critical failure of 2007’s Spider-Man 3, Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire, as well as the rest of the cast and crew, would never get a chance to do a fourth despite there being a video game tie-up already in development.
