Escape Room is getting a sequel for release on April 17, 2020.
Deadline reports that Adam Robitel is returning to direct. He’ll be joined by the original film’s writer, Bragi F. Schut, and producer, Neal H. Moritz.
Escape Room released back in January and more than made back its $10 million budget, raking in $119 million at the worldwide box office.
Although it was filled with tropes, we gave the PG-13 thriller a 6.5/10 in our IGN review, calling it “A fun throwback to thrillers from the ’00s.”

While the PlayStation 4 may be in the home stretch of its lifespan, 2018 was a major year for the PS4 with the launch of titles like God of War and Marvel’s Spider-Man, and 2019 is poised to be a strong year for the console as well. Cyberpunk 2077, The Last of Us Part II, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice are just a few of the major titles we can look forward to this year, and that means if you’re still not a PS4 owner, it’s absolutely not too late to pick up this console.
The PS4 Slim, which originally launched with a 500GB hard drive but is now available with 1TB of storage, normally sells for $300. Luckily, you can save a few bucks if you seal the deal today: Using the promo code EMCTVVA36, you can pick up the PS4 Slim with a 1TB hard drive for $30 off at Newegg, dropping the price to $270 (free shipping included).
The sale is running for today only, so act fast if you want to take advantage of the deal. Once you’re a proud PS4 owner, get busy with these top-rated PS4 games from last year; plus, put these upcoming releases on your radar.

Update 02/26/2019: Red Dead Online’s first major update has now been released, and Rockstar has detailed what’s included, and what’s coming at a later date.
Today’s update includes the addition of Daily Challenges, the Rare Shotgun weapon, a range of new clothing items and outfits, and new emotes (which will be available through the Wheeler & Rawson Catalogue). PS4 players will also get early access to the new Jawbone Knife weapon.
Logging into the game any time between now and March 5 will also award players with a delivery of recovery items and rare ammo.
The previously announced world enhancements – updated player visibility, easier Parley and Feuds and a more fully-fledged Law and Bounty system – have also gone live.

Well, well, well. Just when we thought the sale price of Red Dead Redemption 2 wouldn’t go any lower, Walmart went and dropped it again. You can now get RDR2 on both PS4 and Xbox One, with free two-day shipping or in-store pickup, for $35. (Amazon has matched the price, but it’s having trouble keeping it in stock.)
$35 is the lowest price we’ve seen yet, which is great news for anyone who’s held out this long and is interested in trying this fantastic open-world western. It’s unclear when the deal will go away, so grab it fast if you want it.
In an attempt to rise awareness of an impending change to European copyright law that could leave Twitch liable for its users’ content, the platform is hosting two EU MEPs.

If you’ve been thinking about cutting the cord and getting rid of cable for good, the new, low price for Hulu’s entry-level plan is now officially $5.99.
The basic Hulu plan dropped from $7.99 to $5.99 this morning. This isn’t a promotional price, either. It’s the official, monthly price from here on. The price drop was initially announced at the end of January, suspiciously close to the news of Netflix’s new price increase.
Marvel Comics has spent the past year dropping major bombshells for Venom and Carnage, and their newest Free Comic Book Day special teases even bigger things to come.
As part of their solicitation for this year’s FCBD: Amazing Spider-Man special, Marvel teases, “Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman join forces again for a story that’s been brewing since classic Spidey tales like AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #252, SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN #90, and MARVEL TEAM-UP #141. Prepare for absolute terror as this Venom story by Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman sets the stage for what will become one of the most fearsome events in the Marvel Universe…”
Obviously, that doesn’t reveal much about the actual plot of these two stories. However, Stegman’s cover gives us some idea of what’s coming, showcasing Carnage looming and preparing to consume the world.
Red Dead Online, the online multiplayer component for Red Dead Redemption 2, is getting its first huge update. The patch includes new weapons and clothing, new gameplay elements, balance changes, and a host of other features. Some of the new features will roll out today, while others are targeting the coming weeks.
Starting today you can complete daily challenges for gold nuggets and XP. You’ll have seven daily challenges that rotate every day. Completing all seven in one day will get you a bonus. You can also pick up a new Rare Shotgun weapon, and PlayStation 4 players will get the first crack at a new Jawbone Knife.
Then from next week, you can compete with other Posses in a new Free Roam event called Fool’s Gold. One player will wear a protective suit of Golden Armor, and taking them down will give you armor and points, plus damage reduction to take on the enemy.
Sometime further in the future, Rockstar plans to begin dropping new modes each week. Target Races will have you race against other players on horseback while pinging targets with your bow and arrow and limited bullets. Fishing challenges pits you against your friends for the biggest cumulative catch, so you’ll have to strategize if you target the biggest fish in the lake or try to rack up smaller, easier ones. Three new Showdown Modes–Up In Smoke, Spoils of War, and Plunder–are coming soon too. PlayStation 4 players will be first to get a Special Series option that launches them directly into the latest modes as they become available. Xbox One will get the feature afterward.
Also coming soon will be the Evans Repeater weapon, along with new outfits and individual clothing items like boots, coats, gloves, hats, and vests. You can also use a variety of new emotes, and emotes will have another level of intensity that you can activate with a double-tap.
Gameplay changes taking effect starting today include an update to player radar and visibility, with the option to limit proximity chat and a highlight over particularly aggressive players. It will also be easier to start a Parley or a Feud, and the law and bounty system has been revised.
If you log in to Red Dead Online anytime before March 5, you’ll get a free pack of goods delivered to your Camp Lockbox or Post Office. That includes two Potent Snake Oils, two Potent Bitters, two Potent Miracle Tonics, two Horse Revivers, two Potent Horse Stimulants, eight Poison Arrows, and 10 Explosive Slugs.
If you haven’t jumped into Red Dead Online yet and these changes are tempting you to give it a go, you can saddle up for almost half-price right now. Walmart has Red Dead 2 on sale for $35, making it cheaper than ever to explore the Wild West.
