In case you somehow haven't seen the trailer yet, watch it below:

Still, Hawkeye's absence has resulted in a bunch of people on social media asking where he is in Avengers: Infinity War. Vanity Fair senior editor Joanna Robinson shared the new poster in a tweet that says "Hawkguy?"

Social networks may be the most popular places to share photos, but there's something about printed photographs that always feel special. Maybe it's nostalgia, or maybe it's their physical nature, or it maybe it's because sharing a print with someone is a far more personal experience than posting a filtered selfie to Instagram.

JRPG Becomes the First Game Banned in the UK for Over a Decade
Omega Labyrinth Z, a JRPG from Japanese studio Matrix Software and published by PQube, has been banned in the UK. It's the first title to have been banned in the country since 2007, when Manhunt 2 was refused classification.
In a statement from the Video Standards Council, via GamesIndustry.biz, the game was initially submitted "with a provisional PEGI 16 rating for depictions of erotic or sexual nudity."
Avengers: Infinity War Finds Captain America and Black Widow as ‘Disillusioned’ Heroes
Marvel's Avengers: Infinity War sees Thanos bringing the hurt as he vies to collect all six Infinity Stones in order to achieve godlike power, but Earth’s mightiest heroes aren’t exactly in a great position to stop him. The events of Captain America: Civil War left the team fractured, which has had a huge impact on two founding Avengers: Captain America and Black Widow.
During a visit to the Atlanta set of Infinity War, IGN and a small group of press talked to actors Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson about what their characters have been up to in-between movies, and let’s just say the picture they painted isn’t pretty.
“They’re more hardened,” Johansson said, describing how the two heroes have teamed up and gone underground so they can still help those who need it, despite the fact that they’re now doing it without backup or resources. “When you’re fighting for something that you know is important but is not being really recognized or supported by a larger organization or even like, society as a whole … it takes a certain toll, and you can get feelings about it in a way.”

Abe’s Exoddus Remake Reveal Possibly Teased for March 20
Oddworld Inhabitants is teasing a reveal for March 20 that looks like it might just be related to their Abe's Exoddus remake, Oddworld: Soulstorm.
Soulstorm was announced back in 2016 with an expected 2017 release date. It follows on from 2014's New n' Tasty, which was a remake of the original 1997 title, Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee.
The teaser is only a brief seven seconds long, but going through it frame-by-frame reveals some gorgeous concept art (including a piece for the Soulstorm brewery) as well as the words "explore his origins".
EVE Online Players Pay Amazing Tribute to Stephen Hawking
Earlier this week, the family of theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking confirmed that he had passed away at his Cambridge home, aged 76. EVE Online players are paying tribute by lighting beacons across the game's interstellar expanse.
Reddit user kairiola suggested that New Eden's pilots light up cynosural beacons as a form of memorial.
The beacons are used to open jump bridges for warp speed travel, emitting a brilliant light. The sight of one would usually have nearby players' hackles up, possibly denoting the imminent arrival of someone looking for a spot of ship-to-ship combat. But in this instance, they served as an awe-inspiring tribute to the loss of one of the world's greatest minds.
