Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald just had a “fans first” preview screening at Universal Studios Hollywood, and reactions have been largely positive.
It’s important to note that this is a fan screening, so many in attendance were already massive fans of the franchise. Still, if those who enjoyed the mainline Harry Potter films are on board with this spinoff sequel, it could be a positive sign for those on the fence about seeing the film.

Red Dead Redemption 2’s story has captivated many of us here at IGN, including the cast of our weekly PlayStation show, Beyond!
Watch the video above to see host Jonathon Dornbush speak with Brian Altano, Barrett Courtney, and Max Scoville discuss what they’ve enjoyed about Arthur Morgan’s story as they dive into Rockstar Games’ latest, and why they think it may have surpassed all of the studio’s previous narratives.
If you enjoy that conversation, be sure to check out Beyond’s discussion about whether the PlayStation Classic is worth $100, and this week’s full episode of Beyond, as the cast discusses whether Red Dead Redemption 2 tries to be too realistic.
Square Enix has released a new trailer for Kingdom Hearts III, offering us another look at the Kingdom of Corona, a world based on Disney’s Tangled. In the video, which you can watch above, Sora, Donald, and Goofy stumble upon the tower where Rapunzel is being held and help set her free. But before long the newly liberated princess finds herself face to face with a monster.
Flynn Rider is also there, but quickly opts to take a backseat in battles, saying that he can get Rapunzel back to the kingdom but will need Sora and his companions to handle combat, which they have quite a bit of experience with at this point. The quick gameplay showcase also provides another look the traversal ability Rapunzel has, which involves swinging using her hair.
Much of the celebrity voice talent that was attached to the Disney universes featured in Kingdom Hearts III are reprising their roles, as are key performers from previous Kingdom Hearts titles. Haley Joel Osment returns to voice Sora, while Zachary Levi will return as Flynn Rider and Donna Murphy will once again be Mother Gothel. For Frozen, Idina Menzel is voicing Elsa, Kristen Bell is Anna, Josh Gad is Olaf, and Jonathan Groff is Kristoff.
John Ratzenberger and Wallace Shawn will feature as Hamm and Rex from Toy Story, while Tate Donovan is back as Hercules from Hercules, and Kevin R. McNally as Gibbs from The Pirates of the Caribbean. Tony Anselmo and Bill Farmer, who have served as the official voices of Donald Duck and Goofy for over than 30 years each, will also reprise their roles.
Utada Hikaru, who has provided the vocal theme for previous mainline Kingdom Hearts titles, will once again lend her voice for the third game. This time, however, the soundtrack will also feature a collaborative track made with Skrillex. Kingdom Hearts 3 is set to release on January 29, 2019 on Xbox One and PS4.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is a massive game stuffed with lots of detail. It can feel overwhelming at first, and part of the reason why is because the game doesn’t tell you everything you need to know.
We’ve spent a lot of time with Rockstar’s open-world PS4 and Xbox One game, and in a new video feature, GameSpot’s Jess McDonell walks you through a number of tips and details that the game doesn’t tell you–and that you need to know.
In the video, Jess covers things like how to find side-missions, why it’s important to keep an eye out for rising smoke trails, and the importance of keeping your Arthur fed and happy. Jess also covers things like where to sell stolen goods, why it’s effective to do a barrel roll in combat, and the importance of calming a wild horse down before trying to saddle up.
The video goes much further, helping explain things like what you can do at the Gunsmith, how RDR2 connects to the first game, the best ways to hunt, and how to tailor the HUD to provide the best experience possible.
Be sure to watch the full video above to get all the important details, as it also covers things like fishing 101, the morality and honor system, and plenty more. For more on RDR 2, check out GameSpot’s review and all of our previous coverage here.
