There are still those who are willing to get up at the crack of dusk and boot up their console to find him for you. People who’ll risk digital life and limb to let you know if Xur is selling a treasure or rubbish. I just so happen to be one of those people. Maybe you’re stuck at work and can only log in later tonight. In that case: Where is Xur?

The first red-band trailer for this year’s Mortal Kombat movie did at least confirm that blood would flow, evidenced by one noticeable scene where Sub-Zero fashions a makeshift dagger out of Scorpion’s own internal liquids and proceeds to inject straight back into him, but that’s just the mere tip of this bloodberg.

Prince Akeem and his best friend/manservant Semmi are back on another mission to America. This time though, instead of finding love, they have to find an heir. But is this over-three-decades-later production a worthy follow-up to the 1988 Eddie Murphy comedy classic?

Inspired by real events, The Serpent reveals the story of serial conman Charles Sobhraj (Golden Globe nominee Tahar Rahim) and the remarkable attempts to bring him to justice. Posing as a gem dealer, Charles Sobhraj and his girlfriend Marie-Andrée Leclerc (Jenna Coleman) travelled across Thailand, Nepal and India in 1975 and 1976, carrying out a spree of crimes on the Asian ‘Hippie Trail,’ becoming the chief suspects in a series of murders of young Western travellers.

Dibalo 2 Resurrected isn’t just Blizzard’s latest game to get the remaster treatment, but possibly the last one for quite some time. With the studio having done a fair job on bringing some of its older classics back to life with a few modern touches and a new coat of paint over the years, it’s perhaps a tad bit too early to start writing speculation posts about Overwatch: Reforged Edition or Hearthstone: That’s a Big Deck You Got There.
