Nautilus, which premieres on AMC on June 29, tells the origin story of Captain Nemo from Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas, portraying him as an Indian prince seeking to use the eponymous submarine to get vengeance against the British East India Company. While the series has elements of the fantastical, it’s rooted in history that showrunner James Dormer (Medici, Beowulf: Return to the Shadowlands) got to experience...

Pragmata, Capcom’s long-long-delayed sci-fi action game, blew us away at this year’s Summer Game Fest. A clever mix of quick-turn puzzles and shooter action, the PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X game is poised to be one of the big releases of 2026 (if Capcom can actually get it wrap it up on time after all these years). But since the first-look footage and gameplay reports out of...
Some roles are a stretch. Other are more like a leap of faith. Marvel Studios’ Thunderbolts* is headed to digital and Blu-ray, and Polygon has exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of Florence Pugh gearing up for her death-defying stunt. The charming, never-before-seen clip shows Pugh working through nerves and anxiousness as she prepares to take her tower leap from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s Merdeka 118 — the second-tallest building on the planet, alongside...
In summer 2023, Blizzard debuted Overwatch 2’s Flashpoint, a combination of Control and Assault where teams race to occupy a series of territory points. Flashpoint was the first new map type for the series since the unpopular Push launched alongside Overwatch 2, and kind of a big deal. It was also kind of a disaster.

The man forever fated to be known as the creator of Deus Ex would like you to know that he did not, in fact, create Deus Ex. Not single-handedly, anyway. In a video marking the 25th (oh my god) anniversary of the first Deus Ex, Warren Spector emerged from his hermitage to wish everyone a very merry what a shame."I'm pleased and proud because, like every developer, I hoped to...
There's one thing that budget-sector and massive-capacity SSDs have in common, and it's the type of memory chips they use. They both commonly sport QLC NAND flash, which is great for price and storage, but not so hot for performance. Micron reckons it has the solution to this in the form of a new flash chip that can adaptively work in SLC, TLC, or QLC mode, giving you the best...
As you make your way around Peak, you'll come across a variety of items that give you no guidance toward what they actually do. Occasionally, you can make an educated guess, but a lot of the time these items leave you questioning how much use they will really be. Should you take up precious bag space carting one around and hoping it comes in handy later? Or is it best...
FromSoftware's Dark Souls games have a unifying theme of great power leading to great corruption and decay—fallen kingdoms, ruined kings, and whatever the hell is going on with the Gaping Dragon. It's fitting, then, that an Elden Ring Nightreign player obtained similar godhood before their own hubristic fall.As spotted (and translated) by Automaton, a player by the name of mintius managed to continually stack damage until they achieved godhood, then...
