Surprise! As announced at Summer Game Fest, a new animated TV adaptation of Among Us has shadow-dropped on Paramount Plus, which seems strange in an industry currently obsessed with teasing the life out of every single project (just see the Spider-Man Brand: New Day 24-hour trailer event). However, creator Owen Dennis says shadow dropping the series makes sense, as it’s just one more surprise the who-dunnit has up its sleeve.”People like surprises,” Dennis tells GamesRadar+. “The whole show is full of surprises. That’s what we did. Make the show full of surprises, and then surprise people to get into the…

As announced on June 5 at Summer Games Fest, new video game adaptation Among Us has suddenly dropped on Paramount Plus. Although we knew the show was in the works, there has been no real run-up to the animated series, meaning you may be a little confused as to what it is about and who is part of the project. Well, worry no more, as we break down who is voicing who in the Among Us TV show.Based on the hit online multiplayer game of the same name, Among Us follows a group of little astronauts travelling in a spacecraft…
There’s something familiar about ILL. From a voice that sounds suspiciously like Resident Evil Requiem’s Leon S. Kennedy (aka Nick Apostolides) to the gory first-person melee and shooter action, I watched the latest trailer of the upcoming horror game with rapt intrigue. It came out of nowhere during June’s Playstation State of Play showcase, brushing the cobwebs off of a new game I’ve had my eye on for years and treating us the most violent display of the evening. It even gives Marvel’s Wolverine a run for its money, and if you’ve seen Logan’s brutality for yourself already, you’ll know…
The creator of the new video game adaptation Among Us, which just shadow-dropped at Summer Games Fest, says he took on the animated series because of his love of the sci-fi genre, as the game reminded him of John Carpenter’s The Thing.”I like murder mysteries. Love them. Every time you play the game, it’s a murder mystery, and so I like murder mysteries,” says Owen Dennis in an exclusive interview with GamesRadar+. “I like The Thing, I like Alien. Like, it’s basically everything that I like wrapped up into a game, so like I’m into it.”When you break the video…
The leading lady of God of War Laufey may not be a one-off protagonist. While God of War 2018 director Cory Barlog has assured players that the series will, “always tell stories about Kratos,” that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for other people to share the spotlight.That comes from Laufey director Ariel Lawrence, who tells GamesRadar+ that the series has the potential to tell many stories, not just the beloved Spartan’s.”I hope that all the characters that we introduce across all of the games are deep enough, resonant enough that they could carry their own game forward,” she says. “If…
Devastating news, folks: They did not, in fact, perform motion capture on a cube for God of War Laufey. At least not in a way that was critical for animating The Boys star Jack Quaid’s geometric character Phranque.Speaking to GamesRadar+, God of War Laufey director Ariel Lawrence said the ridiculous-looking PVC mocap rig Quaid wore in the Meet the Cast video was mostly for show.”We mocap a little bit, like we have a marker for him to be able to be directional on set,” she explained. But instead of actually translating the rig into a 3D model, it helps the…

But before you do, developer Cyberwave wants to make sure the game is really for you.The team took to Steam on June 5, just three days before the game’s release, to post a blog titled, “Is Solarpunk for you? A very honest note from us.” The blog goes on to say that while the immense attention the game has received prior to release is welcome, it is…

It has been 23 years since Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings trilogy concluded with Return of the King, but Elijah Wood says that returning to play Frodo Baggins in The Hunt for Gollum alongside other original cast members feels a lot like a family reunion, even if he doesn’t have a central role this time around.”I mean, it’s sort of like getting the band back together a little bit with that film,” says Wood to GamesRadar+. “A lot of the creative team who were part of Lord of the Rings are part of Hunt for Gollum. I’m just looking…
