When the original Matrix trilogy ended back in 2003, the Wachowskis made it clear they were interested in passing the future of the franchise–and its lore–to fans through the Matrix Online MMO game. The game has long since ended, but a moment included in the first full trailer for The Matrix Resurrections appears to suggest it’s still being considered canon.
Major spoilers for the films and The Matrix Online to follow, and yes, that is actually important!
It’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment in the first Matrix Resurrections trailer, but you can very briefly see Neo’s body in a post-Revolutions moment at roughly 12 seconds. His eye is clearly burned away, as it was in the film following his encounter with Bane, and he’s being worked on by a few spider-like Sentinel machines.
“I didn’t say it would be easy, Neo. I just said it would be the truth.”
Now, what does any of this have to do with The Matrix Online?
Well, the Wachowskis didn’t want the story for The Matrix to end with the third film. Instead, the MMO acted as a continuation, and one of the major story threads involved Morpheus’ frustration that the machines had not yet returned Neo’s body. This led to him committing attacks in the Matrix, planting “code bombs” to wake up and confuse those still connected until he was ultimately (apparently) assassinated.
Based on the shot from the trailer, it appears the machines never did give back Neo’s body. This isn’t a guarantee that Lana Wachowski is treating the game as 100% canonical, but given her statements in the past, it could certainly be the case. If so, it would help to explain why Laurence Fishburne isn’t in the film, though the reason for Carrie-Anne Moss’ involvement remains a mystery, given that she died in the real world near the end of the third film. Neo did, as well, but the Oracle’s prophecy that he would one day return does seem to account for his, well, resurrection.
We’ll just have to wait and see if this is all true, of course. The Matrix Resurrections releases on December 22, both in theaters and via HBO Max’s ad-free tier.
Though the game isn’t a roguelike, with its levels and encounters hand-crafted, it is a game in which you’ll be running through levels over and over again, trying to bring what you learned in your past attempts at gaining your revenge to become a more efficient fighter.
We got a pretty extensive hands-off look at Sifu, in which we learned quite a bit about how the game works and what combat will be like when players actually get their hands on it. The game is all about fighting groups of enemies, where you’ll need to rely on combos, blocking, parrying, and smart use of your environment to stay alive and get the upper hand. Improvisation and adaptation are key–but you’re still probably going to lose quite a bit.
In Sifu, you play a kung fu student whose family has been murdered, and you set out to take your revenge on the five kung fu bosses responsible. Thanks to a special amulet, if you fall in battle, you don’t die–instead, years are taken off your life, causing you to age. We didn’t see the aging mechanic in action, but Sloclap co-founder and CEO Pierre Tarno explained a lot about how it’ll work, as well as what we can expect from combat, how you’ll unlock new moves, and what you can expect as you seek your revenge and discover what it’ll cost you. The footage shown is from the previously released Sifu trailers, and any gameplay shown is from a work in progress build. Sifu is set to release on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC on February 22.
With martial arts brawler Sifu, developer Sloclap is hoping to capture the meaning of kung fu, creating an experience of learning and mastery through practice. According to Sloclap co-founder and CEO Pierre Tarno, that means you should expect to die a lot as you brawl your way through the game. But as you do, you’ll become older, wiser, and stronger–both as a player and as a character.
Sloclap recently gave GameSpot a hands-off look at the three of Sifu’s five different levels, providing a more complete understanding of what your quest for revenge will actually play like. It’s a game that focuses heavily on executing combos, parrying incoming attacks, reading your opponent, and improvising to keep yourself from getting overwhelmed–and each death is a learning experience that makes you stronger next time.

Now Playing: Sifu Preview – What Kills You Makes You Stronger
You play a kung fu student whose family is murdered and you set out on a one-day quest for revenge against the five kung fu fighters responsible. To get to them, you have to fight through five different levels filled with each boss’s fighters.
In combat, Sifu will probably be familiar to fans of similar action games, including Sloclap’s precious martial arts title, Absolver. You execute combos through different combinations of light and heavy attacks, while also dodging, blocking, and parrying your enemies’ moves. Tarno said players should expect the game to be pretty challenging, and we got that impression from the hands-off presentation–enemies come at you fast and often in big groups, requiring you to learn how to deal with their moves, isolate fighters, and control the crowd.
You can’t just block your way to victory; you have a gauge that measures your guard strength, and as you take hits or block blows, it fills up, indicating when your guard will be broken, leaving you stunned. Enemies also have a similar gauge, and filling it leaves them open for a quick, cinematic takedown, while also replenishing some health. So there’s an incentive to play aggressively, especially because even taking a few hits can cost you dearly in health. Thanks to a special amulet that you wear, being defeated doesn’t mean you die–you just pop right back up to go on brawling. However, your age progresses significantly every time you’re killed, and if you age too much on a run, it’s game over. You’ll revisit these levels over and over, learning how to better handle them, with the goal being to finish the game without taking much of a beating.
“You’re going to want to finish the game as young as possible, because one of the themes that is related to aging is that question of the cost of revenge,” Tarno explained. “More likely than not, the first time you complete the game and beat all five enemies, you’ll be pretty old. So the character has devoted, in one day, 50 years of life in the pursuit of vengeance, and so, was it really worth it? And can you get your vengeance without spending your whole life on it?”
We didn’t see the aging mechanic in action, but Tarno told us a bit about how it works. He said the fantasy at play is the idea of becoming a wise master, but the drawback is that getting older takes a toll on your body.
“We’re still refining design on that front, but we’re currently playing with this idea where there’s this old master thing, where your attacks are more precise, more devastating, so you do more damage, but your body is growing old so you’re slightly weaker, so you’ve got less HP,” he said. “So you do more damage but you can receive less damage, so it’s sort of a balance exercise, which should orient you toward a more aggressive playstyle as you grow older, because you can suffer less damage. That’s sort of the idea we’re going for. But you won’t have a weaker character because that would be a bit depressing, I guess, if every time you revived you’d be weaker and weaker and so have less and less chance of moving forward in the game.”
We saw a brief portion of three different locations from the game: an apartment building, a nightclub that houses a secret fight club, and a museum. Each one presents a different kind of environment to fight through, and it’s essential that you pay attention to and use your surroundings, because taking advantage of the space around you is key to staying alive. In the apartment building, you fight your way up a big central staircase, which means you can potentially throw enemies over the railing into space. If you’re close to a wall or a ledge, you can bounce an enemy’s head off it or throw them into it. Pushing someone down a flight of stairs or out a window helps you to eliminate enemies quickly, and anything from empty glass bottles to pieces of furniture can potentially be a weapon to give you the upper hand.
From the looks of things, Sifu’s combat is all about keeping control of the situation, or getting out of harm’s way quickly. At one point in the nightclub, the player was backed into a corner, so they quickly scrambled up a decorative lattice on the wall behind them to reach the floor above. At another point, the player quickly rolled over a couch to put some distance between themselves and some enemies that were surrounding them.
“It’s the sort of Jackie Chan fantasy of putting the environment between you and your enemies,” Tarno said. In the demo, after climbing the wall, the player was then able to attack two enemies as they ran up a flight of stairs to catch up, nailing one by throwing a bottle to isolate and beat down the other.
You can also unlock different moves that let you throw enemies into one another, swap places with them, or knock them down. Unlocking those moves and working them into your combos allows you to constantly think about how to control the fight, even when facing a crowd.
The same goes for when you’re fighting enemies with weapons. Knock an enemy down, and you disarm them, so you want to be thinking about how to get enemies off their feet and out of the fight before they slash you with a machete or nail you with a baseball bat. You can then grab their weapons for yourself–although Tarno said that weapon durability is pretty low, so don’t expect to carry the same blade or metal pipe through the whole game.
Finally, fighting well builds up a resource for your character called Focus. When you’ve got enough Focus, you can briefly slow down time, allowing you to pick from a group of powerful moves that have specific effects. One move might leave an enemy stunned, while another might knock them down or do extra damage. You can also unlock moves specific to the weapons you find, like blades, to deal massive damage under the right circumstances.
It seems like Sifu will have a whole lot of options for fighting, and it might be a lot to keep track of. Tarno said the player character has around 150 different attack moves, all created with the help of a real-life Pak Mai kung fu master, and that doesn’t count the many takedown moves. But you won’t have access to every move every time you play the game, as Tarno explained. Instead, it’ll take you time to unlock various different abilities, and for a while, you’ll only have them in a specific run.
As you rack up combos and beat enemies, you’ll earn experience points you can then spend at certain places to unlock new moves–either shrines you find in levels, which convey something like perks that only last through a given run through the game, or at your wuguan, the kung fu school you return to between levels. But while you can unlock a move during a run, you’ll lose it if you age out and die until you’ve spent enough points to unlock it permanently. That’ll give you time to figure out which abilities you like and want to use in your kung fu, and which you don’t.
That gives Sifu a bit of a roguelike flair, although Tarno clarified that the battles you’ll encounter are hand-crafted and the levels aren’t random. What’s different each time is the set of perks and moves you might have unlocked, especially as you fight and age. There are also elements of randomness as you play through a level. If you efficiently wail on a group of enemies, the one or two left standing might surrender, allowing you to avoid fighting them or even question them for information about the boss you’re chasing or what lies ahead in the level. But in the same situation, an enemy might become the “last man standing,” gaining a health boost and unlocking additional combos to become something like a miniboss. All the enemies have access to the same moves you do, so fighting these boosted characters will be a test of your knowledge and experience, and they can pop up semi-randomly.
So there are roguelike elements at play in Sifu, mixing up the play of a straightforward action game so that every run through the game isn’t exactly the same. But you’ll also be unlocking things that will persist between runs. Tarno described another element, a menu called the Detectiveboard, where you’ll gather information about each of the bosses and the levels as you play through them. The more info you have, the more paths you might unlock in a level, allowing you to access shortcuts to avoid fights. Again, the theme is mastery through practice, so you’ll replay levels over and over, learning their ins and outs and gathering info on your Detectiveboard, while also becoming a better fighter and unlocking more and more moves. It sounds like we can also expect multiple endings from Sifu; once you’ve cleared all five levels, Tarno said, you might want to reconsider your actions as you play again.
“There is that notion of runs because eventually, the objective of the game, beyond seeing the first ending, is that once you’ve tackled your vengeance, you’ll understand that the way you wreak vengeance is not compatible with the values of your clan, your family, or kung fu,” he said. “So you’re going to get your vengeance in a different way without being as violent toward the bosses, et cetera.”
Though we only saw three brief sections of the game, it seems like all those systems will work together to make Sifu a pretty deep action experience, but one that’s excitingly cinematic. The focus on paying attention to and using the environment makes for some great improvised moments, like one in which the player battles a gang of enemies in a museum exhibit with a giant kunai-shaped pendulum–which swings around the room, nailing people and stunning them. There are also moments where the camera will shift perspective, like a hallway full of enemies that suddenly adopts a side-scrolling perspective, which Tarno said was an homage to the movie Old Boy and to classic 2D brawlers.
Tarno also said that, since this is an action game in which timing for blocks, parries, and strikes is essential, visual fidelity is something Sloclap is focused on. Expect the game to run at 60fps on both Playstation 4 and Playstation 5, Tarno said, and in 4K on PS5.
Everything we saw in the hands-off presentation makes Sifu look like an impressive, if tough and demanding, action game–one in which you’ll want to keep practicing to become a kung fu master.
Sifu is set to release on PS4, PS5, and PC on February 22.
If there’s one thing that developer Sloclap has shown that they have a unique mastery over in the world of video games, it’s martial arts. If 2017’s hand-to-hand-combat-focused open-world RPG, Absolver wasn’t a convincing enough case, their upcoming beat-em-up, Sifu, certainly aims to prove that few do kung-fu better than the Paris based studio. After getting a 30-minute developer-driven demo, I’d find it hard to argue against the point.
Sifu is a game that’s obviously inspired by classic Asian martial arts movies, with its laser focus on being a single outnumbered martial artist facing off against a group of thugs and goons and scraping by not only with your skill, but also your environmental awareness and ingenuity. I know what you’re thinking: “But Mitchell, that’s like… every beat-em-up or action game.” But it’s different here, and it comes down to a couple of key things.
For one, Sifu’s martial arts combat is smooth as butter. Not only are the animations super fluid, but the way strikes flow naturally into parries, which can then transition seamlessly into grabs and throws, perfectly mimics the style of a classic kung-fu movie. Even more importantly, though, is the role that the environment plays in combat, which we’ll get to in a bit.
Sifu’s martial arts combat is smooth as butter.
On a fundamental level, Sifu’s combat very quickly brings to mind the Batman Arkham games and most specifically, Sleeping Dogs, but there are some key differences. For one, at its core is a structure meter that governs both your own and your opponents’ ability to block. By continuously landing attacks, you’ll deplete their structure meter, eventually opening them up to a takedown or execution. The same is true for you as well. Block too often, and your meter will decrease until eventually your guard is opened up. You can parry by timing a block just as an opponent strikes, which will stun and open them up for strikes or a directional throw. You can throw enemies into walls, down stairs, through guardrails, over railings, and so on and so forth, making it a vital technique. There’s also a focus gauge that allows you to slow down time and target specific body parts that each cause a different effect when hit.
There’s a ton of destructibility in play as well. In one part, the player was picked up and slammed through a partition, which then allowed him to pick up a wooden piece of it and use it as a weapon. Bottles can also be picked up and thrown, and even objects on the floor like ottomans can be kicked towards enemies to knock them off their feet. Despite it being a developer-led hands-off demonstration, the combat still managed to have a very improvised look to it, with the player having multiple options to deal with enemies at any time.
What really struck me the most about the combat, though, was how contextual and reactive everything was. By positioning himself next to a counter and luring the enemy in, the player was able to dodge a strike, and then slam the enemy’s head into the counter for a quick knockout; pieces of furniture will get destroyed as combatants get knocked through them; bad guys will either surrender as you take out their friends, or become enraged and become even more dangerous when they’re the last one left. I saw a lot of fighting over the course of the demonstration, and yet every scrap had a unique feel to it thanks to the unique placements of objects, hazards, and how the player was able to turn a bad situation around by using the environment to their advantage.
The demonstration also touched briefly upon unlockable skills and upgrades, which can be purchased from shrines, but what’s interesting is that your upgrades and skills are lost upon death, which almost moves Sifu into a roguelite territory. But I wouldn’t go that far, as the randomization elements that are key to that genre don’t seem to be present in Sifu. There is, however, that element of single-run progression versus permanent progression. Instead of spreading your points out and buying a bunch of skills to help you in your current run, you could instead opt to pool the points into one skill and work towards unlocking it as a permanent upgrade that persists on all future runs. It’s an interesting choice and I’m curious to see how else the roguelike elements manifest and develop over the course of the game.
I was impressed by virtually everything I saw of Sifu. The combat looks exquisite, the roguelite elements are intriguing, and the ways in which it brings to mind classic asian martial arts movies should be exciting to any fan of the genre. Sifu releases on February 22, 2022 for PS4/PS5 and PC.

Following reports about Ubisoft’s alleged toxic, frat house culture, the French publisher has announced the appointment of a new Chief Creative Officer who will be responsible for working with the company’s studios to “include diverse perspectives and sensibilities.” However, a Ubisoft workers’ advocacy group has expressed some concerns.
Igor Manceau, a 20-year veteran at Ubisoft who most recently worked as creative director on Riders Republic, will be the new Chief Creative Officer, reporting to CEO Yves Guillemot. Manceau will also join Ubisoft’s Executive Committee.
Serge Hascoet was Ubisoft’s previous Chief Creative Officer. He was called out for abusing his significant influence over staff and encouraging a toxic work environment. Guillemot stepped into the role in the interim.
The Chief Creative Officer role is a big and important one at Ubisoft. The publisher said Manceau will be in charge of “defining and nurturing Ubisoft’s overall creative vision and guiding the creative direction of its games so that they are accessible, irresistible, and enriching for all players.”
“Manceau will work closely with stakeholders in all the company’s studios to include diverse perspectives and sensibilities that will feed the creative spirit of the group,” Ubisoft said.
Manceau will work closely with Ubisoft’s Chief Studios Operating Officer, Virginie Haas, and Chief Portfolio Officer Sandrine Caloiaro in his new role. They will work together to “organically grow Ubisoft’s owned franchises and identify opportunities to create new titles that can succeed in new or emerging game genres.”
Regarding Manceau’s own personal journey at Ubisoft, he started with the company in 1998 on the business marketing team before getting promoted to director of editorial marketing for Ubisoft’s Montreal studio in 2003. In 2006, he moved to a new team that came up with concepts for casual games and then he became a creative consultant on the Assassin’s Creed series, among others. He moved to Ubisoft Annecy in 2014 to become the creative director on Steep and held the same role for Annecy’s Riders Republic, which releases in October.
“It is a real honor for me to lead and support the passionate and incredibly talented group of people responsible for the creative direction of Ubisoft’s games,” Manceau said in a statement. “We have some of the best creative minds in the industry at Ubisoft, and I’m looking forward to partnering with them to increase our games’ focus on innovation, quality and differentiation, so that we’re continuing to deliver truly memorable, entertaining, and enriching experiences for our players.”
Guillemot said Manceau is “one of the most experienced, innovative, and well-respected creative directors at Ubisoft and in the video game industry at large.”
A Ubisoft workers’ advocacy group, A Better Ubisoft, responded to the news of Manceau getting promoted. The group said it looks forward to working with Manceau to promote change, but it also acknowledged the “shocking lack of diversity” among Ubisoft’s executive teams. “Currently, as it stands, the creative team at Ubisoft is comprised of white people who are of uniform cultural backgrounds.” You can read the full statement below.
From here, we see a series of quick shots of various things, including Thomas and Trinity on a rooftop, the machines, a new ship that definitely is not the Nebuchadnezzar, the woman with the rabbit tattoo running from police as they shoot at her, an Agent taking over the body of a police officer, Thomas with a gun pointed at his head, and more. Most notably is a shot inside of what looks like a nightclub. Someone fires a rocket launcher, which travels through the club, into a door that is a portal to a train, where it explodes. Of course, Thomas, the woman with the rabbit tattoo, and whoever Abdul-Mateen II is playing are on that specific train.
LEGO has revealed a new Super Mario 64 playset that takes the form of one of the game’s iconic Question Mark blocks, with a hidden secret centre.
Announced on LEGO’s website, the new playset is a fold-out version of Super Mario 64’s famous Question Mark block. When opened up, fans will find four distinct levels from the game: Peach’s Castle, Bob-omb Battlefield, Cool Cool Mountain, and Lethal Lava Trouble. The set weighs in at 2064 pieces with both the block itself and each of its levels buildable.
In addition to the various Mario stages within the set, there are also microfigures of different characters from across the game that can be placed around the set. A number of them can be seen in the playset’s official trailer, including Mario, Princess Peach, King Bob-omb, and a selection of Cool Cool Mountain’s penguins.
Pablo Gonzalez, Senior Designer at the LEGO Group spoke further about the set and why its inclusion within the wider Mario LEGO collaboration felt important to the company. “It’s difficult to imagine the Super Mario Universe without the classic game’s iconic levels full of discovery and secrets. With this amazing set, we’re building on the exciting play experience of LEGO Super Mario, both to bring a bit of nostalgia for those who played the Super Mario 64 video game, but also to introduce these wonderful levels to a whole new audience of Super Mario fans.”
The new set is the latest in a number of sets created in a partnership between Nintendo and LEGO. Previous releases in the series have included LEGO’s own take on Bowser’s iconic Airship. The collaboration also produced an interesting take on a LEGO-based co-op mode when the Luigi Starter Set launched earlier this year.
Fans will be able to get their hands on the upcoming Question Mark Block set from official LEGO retailers and the LEGO website when it releases on October 1. The set will then become available at other stores around the world in 2022. LEGO has set a recommended retail price for the set at 169.99 USD/EUR.

The Matrix Resurrections has revealed its first trailer, and if there’s one major takeaway, it’s that the fourth installment in the series seems to be riffing a lot on the original.
Released today, the new trailer introduces us to an older, seemingly amnesia-stricken Neo (Keanu Reeves), living on a diet of bad dreams and blue pills. He meets Carrie-Anne Moss’ Trinity, who half-recognises him, as well as what seems to be a younger version of Morpheus, played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II. And, of course, there’s a whole heap of bullets and balletic martial arts. Check out the trailer below:
What’s notable about the trailer is how many references – big and small – there are to the first Matrix movie in particular. Aside from the red pill-blue pill motif, we see white rabbit tattoos, liquid mirrors, black cats, stopping bullets in place, and what seems to be a fight between Reeves and Abdul-Mateen that takes place in the sparring program where Neo and Morpheus originally trained. Even the way Abdul-Mateen’s character casually fires two submachine guns in separate directions harks back to Neo doing the same in the original Lobby Fight scene.
It’s perhaps no surprise that, after this long away, the latest Matrix would invoke the memory of the first. Two decades later, the 1999 original is heralded as a classic but its sequels, Reloaded and Revolutions, are looked back on less fondly overall. While this could simply be a tactic for the film’s first trailer, invoking nostalgia alongside excitement, it’s possible Resurrections is taking something of a Force Awakens approach, purposely riffing on the original film’s events – the title of this movie alone makes that feel fairly possible.

After a very long wait, the trailer for The Matrix 4, now known as The Maxtrix Resurrections, is finally here. Coming to theaters and HBO Max on December 22, the new movie features a couple of your favorite characters from the series, alongside some new additions.
The trailer opens up with Neo, who is now Thomas Anderson, talking to a therapist, played by Neil Patrick Harris. Neo has been having dreams–more like flashbacks–to moments where he was unplugged and visions of the Matrix coding as well. In the real world, Neo seems bored and stuck in a rut. However, that changes when he meets Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss), but the two don’t realize their history together. Watch the trailer for yourself below.
There sure are a lot of blue pills in this. From what it seems like in the trailer, The Matrix Resurrections may be about Neo reconnecting with who he truly is–The One–and getting unplugged once again, unless this Neo is simply a computer program whose had most of his memories wiped. It’s very hard to tell, as most of the footage from the trailer probably doesn’t tell the full story for the movie, though there could be an unexpected connection.
Of course, Reeves is sporting what’s now his signature long hair, which makes him look a bit like John Wick. The Matrix Resurrections will have another connection to that series by way of John Wick directors Chad Stahelski and David Leitch, who will both be helping director Lana Wachowski choreograph the fight sequences. Both men worked on the Matrix trilogy in the past, and Stahelski was Neo’s stunt double in the first film.
The new additions to the franchise include Priyanka Chopra (Baywatch), Jessica Henwick (Love and Monsters), Danial Bernhardt (John Wick), and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II (Watchmen).
The Matrix Resurrections will be available on HBO Max and in theaters on December 22.
Amazon Luna was released one year ago, and the retail giant continues to support and improve the streaming platform based on player feedback. Today, the company acknowledged that it “learned so much” from subscribers so far, and with their feedback in mind, plans to “make Luna even better” by expanding it to more devices, with more games.
Starting now, Fire table owners in the US can start streaming games. All they need is a compatible Fire tablet and the Luna app. The games support touch screen controls as well as the Luna controller or any supported gamepad.
One of the new channels launching today is the Family Channel, which offers a “carefully curated” group of 35+ games that are appropriate for younger players. The channel costs $3/month and includes titles like SpongeBob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated, Garfield Kart: Furious Racing, and Transformers: Battlegrounds. Skatebird will come to the channel later this month.
Amazon also announced that Far Cry 6 (October 7) and Riders Republic (October 280 will launch day and date on Amazon Luna in October, while Rainbow Six Extraction will come to Luna early next year. These games are part of the Ubisoft+ Channel, and everyone who signs up by September 29 can lock in at the existing $15/month price before the cost goes up to $18/month on September 30.
Looking ahead, Amazon said it will launch a “retro-gaming” focused channel “soon” with games from Atari and SNK, among others. Some of the games in the channel will include Another World, Dragon’s Lair, and King of Fighters.
Another big announcement is a new co-op feature for Amazon Luna. The new Luna Couch option lets you play games like Team Sonic Racing and Overcooked 2 (among others) cooperatively even if you’re not in the same room. Perhaps the most exciting part of this is that only the host needs to be a Luna subscriber–the guest can play for free. The host creates a game session, which generates a Luna Couch code that a friend can use.
Amazon also announced that all Amazon Prime members in the US can play four games on Luna at no cost for the next week (September 9-15), including Resident Evil 7, Metro Exodus, Katamari Damacy Reroll, and Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom. Prime subscribers can already request an Early Access invite for Luna, but now they can simply jump in through the Luna website.
