Celebrate Deadpool’s 30th Anniversary With These Wacky Funko POP Figures
With Toy Fair 2021 postponed, Funko is looking to fill the void with a weeklong virtual event dubbed Funko Fair 2021. IGN can exclusively reveal one of the new Funko POP lines being announced at Funko Fair, one celebrating the 30th anniversary of Deadpool.
This new POP Marvel: Deadpool 30th Anniversary line features the Merc With a Mouth in a variety of goofy poses and costumes, including everything from Barista Deadpool to Construction Worker Deadpool to T-Rex Deadpool. Get a closer look at this new POP wave in the slideshow gallery below:

In total, there are six new Deadpool figures included in the 30th Anniversary wave. Funko is also prepping a new wave of Mystery Minis, featuring smaller takes on these unusual designs along with several extra costume choices.
These Deadpool figures are available to preorder through Walmart, along with the rest of the new Funko Fair 2021 reveals.
As the name of the series suggests, Funko is celebrating the 30th anniversary of Deadpool's first appearance back in 1991's New Mutants #98. Co-creator Rob Liefeld recently voiced some strong opinions about Marvel's handling (or lack thereof) of Deadpool in the MCU.
Fortunately, all signs point to Deadpool 3 being a go at Marvel Studios. An R-rated Deadpool 3 is reportedly in development, with Ryan Reynolds set to return as Wade Wilson. According to Deadline, Bob's Burgers writers Wendy Molyneux and Lizzie Molyneux-Loeglin are currently working on the screenplay.

The much rumoured remake of Resident Evil 4 is reportedly seeing a 'partial reboot' at Capcom, and a change in development leadership, after disagreements over its direction.
VGC reports that, per sources close to the project, core Resident Evil studio Capcom Division 1 has taken the lead on the project, with original developer M-Two seeing its role reduced. The changes could apparently lead to a 2023 release date.
The report explains that, following a project review, M-Two was seen to be too faithful to the original game, with Capcom preferring that the remake takes inspiration from Resident Evil 4, but introduces new elements and features.
[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/resident-evil-4-is-pretty-much-perfect-but-heres-how-capcom-could-remake-it"]
The latter approach was taken in both the Resident Evil 2 and 3 remakes, with varying levels of fan response. M-Two is said to have wanted to stick to the Resi 4 formula due to backlash against Resident Evil 3's changes, which saw portions of the original game entirely removed.
The Resident Evil 4 remake has been rumoured for some time, with this year's huge leaks of apparent internal Capcom documents pointing to a Q4 2022 release date.
It feels like a likely prospect, not least after the new Resident Evil 3 included a specific reference to the sequel. Resi 4's director, Shinji Mikami told IGN that, "As long as [a remake] turns out good I have no issues with it."

Xbox Games With Gold for February 2021 Announced
Microsoft has announced that the Games with Gold for February 2021 are Gears 5, the remastered version of Resident Evil, Dandara: Trials of Fear, Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb, and Lost Planet 2.
Announced on Xbox Wire, Gears 5, Resident Evil, and Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb will become available for those with Xbox Live Gold on February 1, 2021. Dandara: Trials of Fear and Lost Planet 2 will become available on February 16.
Gears 5, which will be available until February 28, is the latest entry in the Gears of War franchise and has been fully optimized for Xbox Series X/S.
In our Gears 5 review, we said "No matter which mode you approach it from, Gears 5 is an incredibly fun and polished game."
[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/09/13/gears-5-final-review"]
Resident Evil, which will be available until February 28, is a remaster of the original Resident Evil from 1996. This news also follows yesterday's Resident Evil Showcase that announced the release date of Resident Evil Village, a playable demo called Maiden, and much more.
In our Resident Evil review, we said "Resident Evil does a good job of updating the look and feel of a classic survival horror game for a new audience."
Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb, which will be available until February 15, was released on the original Xbox in 2003. In this adventure, Indy must take on Nazis and the Asian underworld to track down the Heart of the Dragon before it falls to those with ill intent.
This also follows the reveal that MachineGames is working on a new Indiana Jones game with Bethesda Game Studios director Todd Howard as an executive producer.
[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2021/01/12/indiana-jones-bethesda-game-official-teaser"]
In our Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb review, we said "While there are plenty of better games on the PC, none give you your recommended daily allowance of Indy quite like this one. Fans of the film will definitely be able to overlook the minor (but recurring) failings."
Dandara: Trials of Fear Edition, which will be available until March 15, is a metroidvania-style platformer that follows a group of unique characters in the world of Salt. It also features a handcrafted pixel art style.
Lost Planet 2, which will be available until February 28, is the sequel to the 2006 title from Capcom that takes players to a frozen planet that's being torn apart from the ongoing battle for thermal energy.
[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2010/05/07/lost-planet-2-video-review-lost-planet-2-video-review"]
In our Lost Planet 2 review, we said "Lost Planet 2 plays like it was never put in front of a member of its intended audience at some point during its development... A little "why?" may have taken this game in a different, more compelling direction."
There is still time to redeem January 2021's Games with Gold, including Little Nightmares, Dead Rising, and Breakdown, so don't miss out!
In addition to this announcement, Microsoft has also announced that it is increasing the price of Xbox Live Gold. Luckily, if you are an existing 6-month or 12-month member, the price is not changing yet and will renew at the value before the update.
