Avengers: Infinity War Official Rating Revealed
Avengers: Infinity War has finally received an official rating by the Motion Picture Association of America.
The upcoming MCU ensemble movie is rated PG-13 for "intense sequences of sci-fi violence and action throughout, language and some crude references."
The rating shouldn't be a major surprise considering all of the titles in the MCU so far have received a PG-13 rating.
Infinity War opens in theaters on April 27, and it's currently tracking for a massive $200 million-plus opening in the United States. The third Avengers flick has already sold more tickets on Fandango than the last seven Marvel movies combined, which include the likes of Black Panther and Captain America: Civil War.

A Way Out Developer Almost Signed with Microsoft
Hazelight Studios, the development team behind A Way Out, almost signed with Microsoft instead of Electronic Arts.
After creating the critically acclaimed Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, filmmaker-turned-game-designer Josef Fares told IGN on the latest episode of our monthly interview show IGN Unfiltered (see the full interview below) he spoke with both EA and Microsoft when looking for a publisher for his next project.
"Brothers opened up a lot of doors," Fares said. "I was very close to signing with Microsoft. It was like a week between. We were super close."
Infinity War Sells More Advance Tickets Than Last 7 MCU Movies Combined
It appears Avengers: Infinity War is set to be another massive hit for Marvel Studios.
Fandango announced on Twitter the upcoming MCU ensemble film has already sold more advance tickets on the online ticketing service than the last seven Marvel movies combined. Those films are Black Panther, Thor: Ragnarok, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Doctor Strange, Captain America: Civil War, and Ant-Man.
To top it off, Infinity War has now sold more than twice as many tickets on Fandango as Black Panther two weeks before its release, according to Fandango managing editor Erik Davis.
Why Jeff Wadlow’s X-Force Movie Didn’t Happen
An X-Force movie has been in the works for a fairly long time, entering into development with filmmaker Jeff Wadlow back in 2013. Wadlow has shed some additional light on the original thinking behind the movie, as well as some of the reasoning behind it never actually being made.
In an interview with Collider, Wadlow explained that although his initial draft of the script for an X-Force movie was well-received by Fox, there came a "critical moment" where the studio wanted to choose between a Deadpool solo movie or an X-Force team-up.
Interestingly, Wadlow mentions that Deadpool did feature in his X-Force draft, and that he'd even been talking to Ryan Reynolds about playing the character after "they totally screwed it up in X-Men: Origins," saying that it had been his plan to "rehabilitate" the character.

Radical Heights Is a Hot Mess, but That’s Not a Surprise
When I saw that the Steam page for new free-to-play battle royale game Radical Heights said it was releasing in “X-Treme Early Access,” I took it as a silly play on its over-the-top ‘80s theme. It’s not. This game is extremely early, with the ‘e’ firmly present at the beginning of that word. The core shows a lot of potential, but with only five months of development, there are still tons of issues and even more work to be done.
Its launch has been plagued with reports of connection and performance issues that have largely tanked its Steam review average to under 50% positive with over 1,600 submitted at the time of this writing. I haven’t experienced any game breaking bugs (though I did get stuck in a door once) but Radical Heights is far from a polished experience. Simply put, it’s not done — but it’s also not pretending to be.
Radical Heights Already Stands out Against PUBG, Fortnite
Radical Heights has got a lot of baggage. It’s the next game from the makers of the notoriously defunct LawBreakers, it bears a questionable resemblance to the largest free-to-play battle royale game in the world, and it’s already wrestled with a now quelled pay-to-win scare. The deck is stacked against it, and it certainly has its problems, but Radical heights also has something genuine to offer the battle royale genre.
