New to Netflix for April: New Sabrina, She-Ra, and a “Bandersnatch”-Style Survival Series

Netflix in April is…a little spooky? Are we doing Halloween in Spring now?

The creepy vibes aren’t simply because Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is back, but also Sabrina’s Kiernan Shipka is starring in a new horror flick called The Silence – which looks to be a new entry in Sensory Deprivation Horror, ala Bird Box and A Quiet Place.

Plus, there’s a new zombie series starring Jaime King that’s a prequel to Syfy’s Z Nation, called Black Summer. So things are going to get a bit frosty during the flowery days ahead.

On the movie front, there are classics like All the President’s Men, Bonnie and Clyde, and Deliverance, along with empowering flicks like Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and P.S. I Love You.

AR Angry Birds Game Announced

Angry Birds AR: Isle of Pigs, an augmented reality game from the prolific mobile game series, has been announced for iPhones and iPads with ARKit support.

Announced by Rovio and Resolution Games at GDC 2019, Angry Birds AR is set to hit iOS devices in late spring, though it’s available for preorder now on the App Store for iPhone 6s and later, all iPad Pro models, as well as iPad 5th and 6th generations.

The game lets players use the Angry Birds slingshots, shooting birds at the piggy-constructed towers that exist in the player’s own environment. It’s launching with at least 40 levels, integrating classic Angry Birds gameplay into an AR landscape. Players can view the levels in real time, and are able to walk 360-degrees around levels to find weaknesses, hidden items and line up perfect shots.

Fujitsu Realforce R2 RGB Gaming Keyboard Review

If you buy something through this post, IGN may get a share of the sale. For more, read our Terms of Use.

Fujitsu has taken up the mantle of being the reseller for Topre’s Realforce brand of mechanical keyboards, and the company has released the Realforce R2 RGB gaming keyboard in the US. It comes in both full-size and tenkeyless models, both complete with 16.7 million color RGB lighting and Topre keyswitches with customizable actuation points.

The Topre brand lends some clout to the new keyboard, but this is not the gaming keyboard for everyone, as at $299 (See it at Amazon) it costs about as much as a brand GPU like the Nvidia GTX 1660Ti, and that’s regardless of whether it’s the full or tenkeyless variant (both models are the same price, oddly).

Disney Completes Acquisition of 21st Century Fox

$71.3 billion dollars later, Disney has all but completed its buyout of 21st Century Fox.

Announced today, the deal will become official at 12.02am ET on March 20. An official business statement reads:

“Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc. (“21CF”) (NASDAQ: TFCFA, TFCF) announced that it has today completed the distribution of all issued and outstanding shares of Fox Corporation (“FOX”) common stock to 21CF stockholders (other than holders of the shares held by subsidiaries of 21CF) on a pro rata basis (the “Distribution”). 21CF and FOX are now each a standalone, publicly traded company. FOX Class A common stock and FOX Class B common stock are now listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “FOXA” and “FOX,” respectively. 21CF Class A common stock and 21CF Class B common stock, which were formerly listed on Nasdaq under the symbols “FOXA” and “FOX,” respectively, are now listed on Nasdaq under the symbols “TFCFA” and “TFCF,” respectively.”

The MCU’s First Three Phases Have Been Officially Dubbed The Infinity Saga

With the end of Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe on the horizon, Marvel Studios come up with a very fitting name for the group of films that stretch from Iron Man to Avengers: Endgame. The new moniker is also another sign that there are some big changes coming to the film series shortly.

As revealed in Empire Magazine (via IGN), the first 22 films in the MCU will become known as The Infinity Saga. Explaining the decision, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige said, “We wanted to bring to a conclusion a series of movies in a way that had never been done before. Harry Potter had an ending because there were only so many books. Lord of the Rings too. But we thought, 22 movies in, wouldn’t it be fun to bring some finality to the storyline.”

The word finality is a scary one where this particular saga is concerned. After Thanos (Josh Brolin) snapped half of the universe out of existence in Avengers: Infinity War, it seemed only logical that by the time Endgame’s credits rolled, some members of the MCU would be dead for good. At this point no, there’s no telling who it is–though one major theory posits that it’s Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) that will bite the dust once and for all.

Whatever happens in Endgame, though, it will be the end of the Infinity Saga. Whether that means it’s the end of Infinity Stones in the MCU is a question that will be answered in time. Though we have some thoughts on what the future of the MCU will look like. Until then, get ready for Avengers: Endgame’s April 26 release by checking out our latest trailer breakdown and deep dive into the character Kate Bishop and whether she’ll appear in the movie.

John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum New Trailer Coming This Week

Everyone is waiting for John Wick… but you won’t have to wait much longer. IGN can exclusively reveal that a new trailer for John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum is dropping this Thursday.

This announcement and exclusive teasers for the trailer, below, serve as a kick off to a week-long IGN Premiere (IGN’s editorially-driven entertainment-focused preview event series) focused on the upcoming sequel. Be sure to tune in every day for another new exclusive — and, of course, coverage of the new trailer!

John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum picks up shortly after the events of Chapter 2, where we find our titular hero on the run and excommunicado with a $14 million price tag on his head, an army of bounty-hunting killers on his trail and the assassin’s guild, the High Table, out to see him dead.

Angry Birds AR Game Announced For iOS

Angry Birds developer Rovio has announced a new game in its popular bird-flinging franchise. Angry Birds AR: Isle of Pigs, the series’ first-ever step into augmented reality, is coming exclusively to iOS devices in late spring, with pre-orders opening in the App Store today, March 19.

Like other Angry Birds games, the object of Isle of Pigs is to slingshot your small flock of birds at increasingly complex block towers, toppling them over and crushing the pigs lurking within. The game is divided up into four themed worlds and is “initially launching with at least 40 levels,” according to Rovio, suggesting more may be on the way.

Where Isle of Pigs differs from most other Angry Birds games is that it reinterprets the series’ gameplay in a 3D space. Using Apple’s ARKit technology, the game overlays the levels onto your surroundings, making them appear as though they were in the real-world. You still drag your finger on the screen to draw the slingshot back and fire your birds, but like the series’ VR spin-off, you’ll be doing so from a first-person perspective rather than a side-on view.

The AR tech also allows you to get a 360-degree view of each level. You can maneuver your iPhone or iPad around to better angle your shots, and many levels feature explosive blocks and other items hidden around the back, encouraging you to play around with the angle in order to clear the stages in as few shots as possible.

Angry Birds AR: Isle of Pigs will be free to download when it launches, with optional in-app purchases. The game will be compatible with any iOS device that supports ARKit, meaning it can run on iPhone 6 and newer models, as well as fifth- and sixth-generation iPads and all iPad Pro devices.

Red Dead Online: Next Major Update Detailed

Rockstar has detailed its planned changes for the next major update to Red Dead Online, coming “later this Spring”.

In a press release, it lists the following features, although points out that there are details not covered, and other unmentioned new features:

Offensive and Defensive Playing Styles – These choose-able styles will alter how you interact with other players in the world. Offensive is essentially the current Red Dead Online experience, but Defensive hews closer to GTA Online’s Passive Mode. In Defensive Mode, you can’t be lassoed by other players, can’t be locked onto, and can’t have critical hits inflicted. In return, you also can’t lock onto other players or deliver critical hits, and lassoing another player kicks you out of Defensive mode. The key difference between Defensive and Passive seems to be that you can still receive damage, it’s just harder to be killed.
