6 Batman Characters Who Could Be the New Arkham Knight
The recent Detective Comics #1000 didn't just mark the 80th anniversary of Batman's debut, it also introduced a brand new villain to DC's comic book universe. The Arkham Knight has made the jump from video games to comics, and he's ready to free Gotham City from Batman's tyrannical reign.
While this new take on the Arkham Knight is very different from the one seen in the 2015 video game, it does seem that someone with a very personal grudge against Batman has taken up this identity. Assuming there's a familiar face under the armor, here are a few theories as to the identity of the new Arkham Knight.

Dark Phoenix Is the ‘Natural Culmination’ of Fox’s X-Men Movies
In an interview with Comicbook.com, Dark Phoenix writer and director Simon Kinberg described his film as the “natural culmination for this cycle of X-Men movies” rather than an ending forced by Disney’s acquisition of 21st Century Fox.
"From the beginning of conceiving what we were going to do with this film and writing it, which was three plus years ago, so long before there was a Disney merger, I felt like this was the natural culmination for this cycle of X-Men movies,” said Kinberg. "Because it is seeing this family that you've come to love and know for how ever many films, and if you count the originals almost 20 years now, you see that family tested in a whole new way. You see that family start to fall apart in a real way for the first time, ultimately come back together.

New Game Darkborn Literally Makes You A Monster Seeking Bloodthirsty Revenge
IGN is proud to exclusively reveal Darkborn, the debut game from developer The Outsiders. Previously codenamed Project Wight, Darkborn is a story-focused action game where you literally play a monster in a classic revenge story.
Though still in development in a pre-alpha state, Darkborn is a first-person mixture of stealth and action as you inhabit one of the titular creatures in a bid to visit vengeance on the Viking-like humans who inhabit the world.
But there’s more to it than pulping your way through grunting, barbaric Norsemen. Darkborn is positioned to tell a unique story revolving around opposing powers in the world, while you and your family are caught in the middle. As evident from the 15-minute gameplay reveal above, the opening moments of Darkborn paint the picture of a caring family unit that’s literally ripped apart, sparking your journey to grow and evolve from a cub to a predator, gaining size, strength, and incredible bestial powers.

Iron Man in VR Is a Blast
Playing Marvel’s Iron Man VR is a bit like being Stark in the first MCU Iron Man film. As I got the hang of the velocity of my palm thrusters and how to arc my trajectory in the air, I overshot my landing point an embarrassing number of times, pushed myself in the wrong direction a couple times, and crashed into some walls, thankfully without any of the injuries Tony would actually suffer.
After my initial few minutes of rough flying, though, I found my flying footing with Camouflaj’s intriguing gameplay. And while I’m probably not quite ready for a spot on The Avengers, the amount of intuitive flying freedom Marvel’s Iron Man gives you makes for a surprisingly enjoyable ride in Stark’s shoes.

Cyberpunk 2077 Has No Game Over Screens for Failing a Mission
The only game over screen you’ll see in Cyberpunk 2077 is when you die. No matter how badly you mess up a mission’s objectives, there will always be a way to continue playing without having to reload from a checkpoint, provided you don’t die.
According to CD Projekt Red’s quest designer Philipp Webber, who recently spoke with German website GameStar, the development team approached mission design with an overarching question: "What is the stupidest thing that the player could do?". With this philosophy in mind, quests have been designed to allow all kinds of player behaviour, ensuring that the game never fails players for engaging in unconventional activities.
