IGN's very happy to be able to reveal a brand new level coming to Fall Guys in Season 3 - welcome to Tundra Run. Adding to Fall Guys' set of races, this is a rush to qualify by crossing the finish line, but offers perhaps one of the cruellest obstacle courses in the game so far. You can check out a gameplay video below: [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/12/11/fall-guys-season-3-exclusive-tundra-run-level-reveal"] Tundra Run offers major choices about how to proceed through it, each with pros and cons. In all, the level will have you:

• Climbing a narrow, chicaning hill while trying to avoid growing, cannon-fired snowballs.
• Passing through a set of presents that fire giant boxing gloves (or creeping around the narrow ledges behind them.
• Climbing a steep hill, assisted by a fan.
• Jumping over a set of boxing glove presents, or crossing longer, icy, obstacle strewn paths around them.
• Climbing a hill covered in pinball-like flippers that shoot you backwards through the level, while a moving fan also blows you back down.
• Using a set of flippers to reach small floating flippers, which also feature flippers to send you over the obstacle-guarded finishing line (or plummeting to your doom).

[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/08/06/fall-guys-ultimate-knockout-review"] It is, quite frankly, a mean-looking race, and seems to be another step up in the skill levels required after players have mastered the Season 1 and 2 stages. Tundra Run marks one of a several new levels being added in the Winter-themed Season 3 - and stick with IGN for more exclusive drops of the new content.

The Acolyte, Leslye Headland's mysterious new Star Wars series, has sparked some theories about Darth Plagueis and the Sith Order. During the Disney Investor Day presentation on Thursday, Lucasfilm boss Kathleen Kennedy shared a few details about Leslye Headland's upcoming Star Wars project, The Acolyte. While plot specifics were not given for the female-centric Disney+ series, Kennedy revealed that the "mystery thriller" focuses on the "shadowy secrets and emergent dark side powers in the final days of the High Republic era." [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-upcoming-star-wars-movie&captions=true"] The High Republic era, which is going to be explored further in Lucasfilm's multi-pronged publishing initiative, takes place hundreds of years before the Skywalker saga. The Acolyte is set in the "final days" of this era, so fans have been speculating over which characters might make an appearance in the new series, with some even wondering whether we could see a live-action debut from Darth Plagueis. As noted by Den of Geek, Plageuis was born sometime between 147 and 120 BBY in the classic Legends continuity, making him at least 20 years old during this era, which ended in 100 BBY. Even though it's unclear how this matches up with Disney canon, fans expressed their excitement over the prospect of seeing more of Plagueis' origins and the rumblings of the Sith leading into the prequels.

Early thought:

They said #TheAcolyte takes place near the end of the #HighRepublic Era. Is it a show from the Sith’s perspective as they try to rise again? Maybe The Acolyte is the master of Darth Plagueis? pic.twitter.com/Mm1vOtOTVl — patrickthehutt (@patrickthehutt) December 11, 2020

I'm most excited for this. Sounds like it will be told from the prospective of the Sith. Could we see Darth Plagueis and Darth Tenebrous? How do they stay hidden from the Jedi. If a Jedi does findout about them do they simply kill them or do a force mind wipe or something? https://t.co/jQTWxNf6dp

— Rodian Ryan (@RodianRyan) December 11, 2020

I really guess so. Acolyte is often use for the Sith underlings. Or a agent for the Sith. There is a opening for it to include Darth Plagueis and/or his master. But it can also be earlier. Its about mystery, its a thriller, and emerging dark side powers. Hyped up for real :)

— Niklas Wilfer (@NWilfer88) December 11, 2020

By definition, an acolyte is a person who "assists a member of the clergy in a liturgical service by performing minor duties," which could refer to the Jedi or those who possess the "emergent dark side powers." Whether that's Plagueis or the Sith remains to be seen, but we do know that there are plenty of other challenges and enemies present during this period, including the Drengir and the Nihil. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/02/27/star-wars-the-high-republic-explained"] The opening crawl for the upcoming High Republic publishing initiative provided fans with an early insight into the state of the galaxy during this era. The text teased a time of peace, hope, and prosperity in a "magnificent renaissance" that becomes endangered by a "frightening new adversary" who threatens to disrupt the harmony of the Jedi heroes.

Multiple members of the teams that worked on the original Mass Effect Trilogy have returned to BioWare and are working on the new installment in the series officially announced last night at The Game Awards. On Twitter, Mass Effect Project Director Mike Gamble singled out narrative designer Dusty Everman (Mass Effect 1, 2, 3, Andromeda) and Parrish Ley (Mass Effect 1, 2, 3) as two of those who had left BioWare, and returned to work on the new Mass Effect project. Gamble adds that "there are more" ex-Bioware developers returning for the new game, and explains "We've heard what Mass Effect means to you." While they've remained at BioWare, Gamble also points out that original Mass Effect art director Derek Watts, and programmer/designer Brenon Holmes are part of the new team. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/12/11/mass-effect-new-installment-announcement-trailer"] After the less well-received Mass Effect: Andromeda, and departure of BioWare general manager and Mass Effect director Casey Hudson, the future of Mass Effect could have been seen to be moving in something of an unknown direction, with a new team in place. Gamble appears to be attempting to counter that assumption by showing the direct line between teams on the much-loved original trilogy and new game. That's held up somewhat by the appearance of the Mass Effect Trilogy's Liara T'Soni in the teaser trailer for the new game. BioWare has already stated that the next Mass Effect game will have a "veteran team". Mass Effect was one of many, many new announcements last night - here's everything announced and revealed at The Game Awards 2020.

Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt Red has seen its stock price fall in the days around the game’s launch, with a steep decline of 29%. As reported by Gamesindustry.biz, shares are currently priced at PLN (Polish złoty) 313.9, down from PLN 443 on December 4. The decline is likely due to the release and press coverage revealing that Cyberpunk 2077 suffers from a plethora of bugs and glitches, and has notably poor performance on previous generation consoles. Such issues have spread widely via social media. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/12/10/why-cyberpunk-2077-should-not-get-a-pass-on-last-gens-failures"] Share prices appear to have dropped since the embargo on reviews was lifted. A few days later, the release of the game did little to counterbalance the fall, with shares on December 10 slipping from PLN 390.6 to PLN 362. That’s a 7.3% decrease. CD Projekt Red experienced an all-time high in share price back in August, with a share price of PLN 460.8 and a total market cap of 42.5 billion złoty. Overtime that has declined around the announcement of major issues, such as the reports of the studio enforcing mandatory crunch and a delay for Cyberpunk 2077. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=cyberpunk-2077-pc-gameplay-screenshots&captions=true"] While stock may have declined, CD Projekt Red has generated a huge amount of sales for Cyberpunk 2077; the game sold eight million copies before it even released. With over one million concurrent users on day one, it was Steam’s highest peak for a single player game. If you’re starting out on your Cyberpunk 2077 journey, don’t forget that we’ve got all the help you could need; check out our Night City map to plan your missions and visit our Cyberpunk 2077 walkthrough if you need a guide for the quests.

Award-winning comic book creator Brian K. Vaughan has been tapped to write the television adaptation of Buck Rogers for Legendary. According to The Wrap, Vaughan, the writer behind Y: The Last Man, and more recently Saga, is developing Legendary's new Buck Rogers TV series alongside producers Don Murphy and Susan Montford, whose credits include Transformers and Real Steel, via their Angry Films banner together with Flint Dille, the grandson of the original Buck Rogers creator, Philip Francis Nowlan. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/03/19/5-great-sci-fi-movies-on-netflix-that-arent-star-wars-or-the-mcu"] The project is based on Nowlan's Armageddon 2419 A.D. novella, published in a 1928 issue of the Amazing Stories magazine. The story opens with Rogers trapped inside a coal mine, where he falls into a state of suspended animation and wakes up almost 500 years into the future. The character rose to further prominence when he appeared in a 1929 John F. Dille comic strip. Now, Rogers is expected to make a comeback in a multi-platform sci-fi franchise at Legendary. This new deal will see the popular property branch out across various projects and platforms, starting with "a big-screen take," which will pave the way for the "prestige television series as well as an anime series, giving audiences a 360-look at heroics sets in the 25th century." [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=the-25-best-sci-fi-movies&captions=true"] The adventures of the spaceman protagonist have appeared in a variety of formats over the years, including comics, movies, radio, and television. The developing project at Legendary could lead to many more adventures with the Rogers, as Hollywood continues to revisit past properties.

Marvel Studios has unveiled the names of the supporting characters in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. During the Disney Investor Day presentation on Thursday, Marvel president Kevin Feige revealed the full cast for the upcoming MCU movie, which now includes Michelle Yeoh as a character named Jiang Nan. Alongside her, several other cast members were assigned to their respective characters, including Awkwafina as Shang-Chi's friend Katy.

Additionally, we found out that Meng'er Zhang will be playing Xialing, Ronny Chieng will be co-starring as Jon Jon, Fala Chen as Jiang Li, and Florian Munteanu as Razor Fist. The Mandarin, portrayed by Tony Leung, was also given an official character name. In the movie, the legendary Marvel villain will be known as Wenwu, the leader of the Ten Rings terrorist group and the speculated father of Simi Liu's Shang-Chi. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/12/11/every-marvel-announcement-from-disneys-investors-call"] Shangi-Chi finished filming a few months ago, after production briefly shut down due to the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Liu shared a powerful message to honour the wrap of production, as he noted in a private Facebook group that it would be "impossible for Hollywood to ignore us after this." He also shared a celebratory photo with director Destin Daniel Cretton. Liu is starring as the titular hero in Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings, which opens in theaters on July 9, 2021. He will "confront the past he thought he left behind when he is drawn into the web of the mysterious Ten Rings organization."

Marvel Studios has announced that Armor Wars, an original series headed to Disney+ that stars Don Cheadle as James Rhodes aka War Machine. Armor Wars, based on the classic Marvel comic series, is a classic tale "about Tony Stark's worst fear coming true: what happens when his tech falls into the wrong hands?" Armor Wars was a seven issue Iron Man story arc that was written by David Michelinie and Bob Layton, with art by Mark D. Bright and Barry Windsor-Smith. It ran from December 1987 to June 1988. Armor Wars wasn't the only new Marvel series that mentions Tony Stark, as Ironheart was also announced and follows the story of Riri Williams, the creator of the most advanced suit of armor since Iron Man. In more Marvel news, Kevin Feige confirmed that the studio will not recast Chadwick Boseman for Black Panther 2, and the She-Hulk series for Disney+ will star Tatiana Maslany in the titular role as Jennifer Walters, and Tim Roth will return as the Abomination. The MCU Disney+ TV slate expanded dramatically today with the announcement of a Ant-man 3, as well as Secret Invasion, featuring Nick Fury and Talos.

Actor Tommy ‘Tiny’ Lister has died at 62, reports Variety. Lister was found in his L.A. apartment and an investigation is underway. Lister’s entertainment career began in the 1980s, including an appearance opposite Hulk Hogan in the 1989 wrestling movie No Holds Barred as the heel, Zeus. A short stint in the WWE and the WCW followed, but it was his role as Deebo in F. Gary Gray’s 1995 film Friday that shot him to stardom. [caption id="attachment_2451316" align="aligncenter" width="1280"] Tom Lister as President Lindberg in 1997's The Fifth Element.[/caption] Lister reprised the role in 2000 in the sequel Next Friday, but the 6’5’’ actor is also remembered for many others, including President Lindberg in 1997 sci-fi cult classic The Fifth Element and Winston the bail bondsman in Quentin Tarantino’s Jackie Brown, plus The Dark Knight, Little Nicky, and Zootopia.
