Not only can we envision Overwatch as a Netflix TV show, but we view it as its own universe like Marvel ‘s. As Disney+ is already set to release four shows based on Marvel characters in 2021 and has several more on its slate, there’s no reason the Overwatch characters couldn’t provide the framework for an intertwined series of characters whose lives intersect. Building on the cinematics that made fans fall in love with Overwatch ’s characters, a series of TV shows could explore these characters and their roles in depth. To that end, Overwatch ’s dramatic interpretation of the role of artificial intelligence in the future is worthy of exploration as the dangers of AI begin to manifest in modern soci
DUMMIEs Big Day (January 26-27): Nobody seems to know what this mode is all about. If we had to take a guess, judging by the fact that everyone seems to look like a brightly colored crash test dummy, it’s likely that this mode makes it so you can’t see which characters the other teams have chosen. It’s either that, or it may be the first mode that involves A.I.-controlled bots for players to shoot freely. Guess we’ll find out when the mode goes live on the 26

Netflix’s new series The Witcher , based on the popular video game series, indicates there’s a strong market for live action series based on beloved games. While many studios have tried ( and largely failed ) with film adaptations, streaming television services tend to be a more forgiving medium. Budgets are typically smaller, and with that, productions are lower-risk than films, which seek recouped costs with large-scale theatrical releases. To date, TV networks have aired a handful of shows based on video games, primarily targeted toward kids or anime audiences. However, there’s been little in the way of live-action television adaptations of games for primarily adult audien
The Hammerpoint Rounds for the Mozambique and P2020 were initially exciting prospects. Introduced alongside the highly overpowered Disruptor Rounds, the idea behind Hammerpoint Rounds was to lend some utility to what were otherwise practically useless and frequently ignored weap
Disco Elysium is a game where you can be a godawful human being or a superstar cop. I don’t think I’ve had more fun this year with a game than I did stumbling around as my drunken detective, wearing a kimono and waxing poetic about liquor, karaoke, and the pointlessness of life. It’s not for everyone, but if you love world-building and playing as self-loathing scumbags, then you should be playing Disco Elysium until you’re face down on the fl
