Kingdom Come: Deliverance: Combat, Speech, and Stealth

All month long we're highlighting cool games that might not be on your radar, as part of IGN First: Games to Watch in 2018.

Today we’ve got a look how you can talk, fight, sneak, or even cook your way through different situations in the realism-focused RPG Kingdom Come: Deliverance.

Even though it looks similar to games like Skyrim or The Witcher at a glance, Kingdom Come: Deliverance is a slower type of RPG. You won’t find NPCs with exclamation points over their head or convenient arrows pointing out where to go, so you’ll have to listen and think through what’s around you to complete its quests.

X-Men’s Gambit Explained

There's only one X-Man who can challenge Wolverine for the title of resident mutant bad boy. And finally, it seems Gambit will get his shot at Hollywood greatness, as director Gore Verbinski (Pirates of the Caribbean, The Ring, A Cure for Wellness) and star Channing Tatum join forces for a solo Gambit movie.

As we wait for that movie to finally materialize, we figured now would be a good time to spotlight the Ragin' Cajun and tell you everything you need to know about Gambit.

X-Men don't come more cocky, self-assured or mysterious than Gambit. This master thief abandoned his shady past (mostly) in order to join Professor Xavier's school and fight for the survival of the mutant race. It may seem like Gambit is more interested in lining his pockets or flirting with beautiful women than playing superhero, but much like his colleague, Wolverine, he's got a heart of gold buried beneath all that swagger.

Carrie Fisher Lives Forever Thanks to The Last Jedi

Star Wars legend Carrie Fisher may have passed away last year, much to the sorrow of generations of fans, but soon after her untimely death it was revealed that the actress' role in Star Wars: The Last Jedi had already been completed. General Leia Organa would have one final go in her never-ending battle against the evil of the galaxy.

And yet, the question remained: How would Lucasfilm and director Rian Johnson deal with Fisher's death? Would the film be modified in some way to kill off Leia or otherwise write her out of the action in preparation for her absence in Episode IX? Would the star's passing be reflected onscreen in some way? As it turns out, Johnson found a way to deal with the situation in a remarkably moving and brilliant way.
