In a not so surprising announcement, Capcom's flexible and potent RE Engine will serve as the base for its future games--especially its next-gen titles.

Capcom is on a roll lately. The company just reported record earnings for FY2018, seeing a monstrous $900 million in net sales and $113 million in profit. Monster Hunter: World amassed a massive 12 million copies sold in less than a year, Resident Evil 2 REmake hit 4 million sales, and DMC 5 pushed 2 million. All of these games were built using Capcom's in-house RE Engine. Now the company plans to leverage its strengths to ensure the hits keep on coming, and its proprietary games engine will be the gateway to its future titles.

In a recent fiscal Q&A session, Capcom COO and President Haruhiro Tsujimoto confirmed that RE Engine will power multiple new marquee games that're in development. None of these games are set to release this year though; Monster Hunter World: Iceborne is the only big new title for FY2019. "While we are unable to comment on the specific number of titles or release windows, there are numerous titles currently being developed internally with the RE ENGINE," Mr. Tsujimoto noted.

If you haven't seen John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum, I suggestg you do. I saw it yesterday and absolutely loved it, I thought it was the best of the series and in the last 12 months it tops the still-awesome Mission Impossible: Fallout. But now, John Wick is battling it out in Fortnite in a new limited-time game mode.

The new Fortnite mode is called Wick's Bounty, which will see players dropping to the ground to collect the gold tokens inspired by the movie, as they defeat bounty hunters. If you stay alive enough you can collect the gold tokens by taking out enemies and exploring the environment, but when you start getting more tokens you'll be hunted down -- John Wick style.

The new Wick's Bounty LTM has its own challenges that will give you free rewards in Fortnite including Gold Token Back Bling, One Shot Glider, Boogeyman Wrap, and bonus XP before the event ends. You can visit the store to grab the John Wick Set which packs the John Wick Outfit (and it looks AWESOME) as well as the Simple Sledge Pickaxe.

Ever wondered what the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate fighting roster would look like if they were made into a live-action movie or brought to real-life? Well, here is your chance to find out.

Above we have an awesome collage from Raf Grassetti, who is the art director at Sony Santa Monica Studios and worked on the artistic design of the critically acclaimed God of War. From the image we can see a collection of Super Smash Bros. characters brought to life through incredible artistic talent.

While there is no doubt that these renders look incredible I can help but to feel a sense of discomfort when looking at some of them. Bowser looks absolutely terrifying, and so does King K. Rool. Yoshi looks so damn weird yet devilishly accurate if he was an actual dinosaur in the real-world. I think this mixture of uncomfortability yet amazement was what Grassetti was going for as he replied to fan that said "Sonic and Yoshi are freaking me out, not gonna lie", Grassetti replied "That's the point. Glad it's working".

If you are a Game of Thrones watcher there is a high chance that you have not enjoyed the shows finale season as much as you did the previous ones. Some people haven't enjoyed it at all and there is good reason for it, but is there good enough reason to re-write the entire season though?

Before jumping into why this season could come as lackluster, I would like to say that this post will NOT contain any spoilers for season 8. Many fans of the series, and myself included, believe that this season perhaps didn't meet the high expectational bar that the previous seasons set. Criticizing fans and many reviews on numerous websites expressed their concern with the writing of the show. Many outlets claimed that the shows direction unfortunately took a wayward turn after the shows writers deviated from author George R.R Martin's books.

While I won't get into how the show specifically made fans second guess the writings (as that would include spoilers), I will say that there is reasonable questing surrounding plot points, apparent plot holes, character logic and the length of the season as a whole. With this all in mind, 650,000 people have signed at petition on Change.org for a re-writing of Season 8. While this petition certainly showcases the concern from fans, I don't believe that any amount of signatures will cause HBO to re-shoot the final season as the expenditure would surely not be profitable.

Some new reports coming out of two of the largest movie news sources have claimed that Robert Pattinson and Nicholas Hoult are the two leading men being considered for the new actor to take up Batman's cape.

The reports have come out of Variety and Deadline. Variety has claimed that Harry Potter/Twilight actor Robert Pattinson is the leading actor being considered by Warner Bros. However, Deadline has reported that the deal between Pattinson and Warner has not been finalized as of yet and that Nicholas Hoult is also being heavily considered by Warner.

To throw some other names into the mix, The Hollywood Reporter has said that Armie Hammer and Aaron Taylor-Johnson are also in the running for the Caped Crusader. The fact that new actors are being considered for the role of Batman comes after the unfortunate news of Batman v Superman actor Ben Affleck hanging up the cape. According to sources who have told Variety, the new Batman movie is expected to begin filming sometime later this year or early 2020.

Grand Theft Auto 6's development is likely ramping up at Rockstar Games as its parent company teases massive games pipeline.

Sony and Microsoft are joining forces to prepare for gaming's big cloud-based evolution.

In a move that could change everything, Sony and Microsoft have announced a strategic partnership that should pave the way for next-generation streaming, AI, and cloud-powered services. The agreement sees the two industry titans bringing their own strengths to the table for a kind of mutualistic synergy. Sony will bring its image sensors over so Microsoft can infuse its Azure-powered AI into them, and Microsoft will let Sony experiment with its Azure servers to host services like PlayStation Now and its retinue of online content on.

"Under the memorandum of understanding signed by the parties, the two companies will explore joint development of future cloud solutions in Microsoft Azure to support their respective game and content-streaming services," reads the announcement. "In addition, the two companies will explore the use of current Microsoft Azure datacenter-based solutions for Sony's game and content-streaming services. By working together, the companies aim to deliver more enhanced entertainment experiences for their worldwide customers. These efforts will also include building better development platforms for the content creator community."
