Rayman Legends: Definitive Edition Dated for Switch
It looks like Rayman Legends: Definitive Edition will be coming on September 12.
The European Switch shop currently lists the game in the "Coming Soon" section with the release date.
However, no official comment has been made. A demo for the game was briefly available earlier today, but it has now been removed. No date or demo is listed on the US eShop at time of writing.
Until today, Rayman Legends: Definitive Edition was simply listed for 2017. We'll be sure to update you when we learn more.
The new edition of the 2D platformer for Switch was announced in January this year, and there will be new, multiplayer focused content included in the package.
The X-Men Face ‘Game-Changing Consequences’ in Marvel Legacy
On the final day of Comic-Con International, Marvel’s ResurrXion panel displayed the mutant ability to be light on new and exciting details about upcoming stories. However, Marc Guggenheim did drop a few hints about the "Mojo Worldwide" crossover that will bring the X-Men Blue and X-Men Gold teams together for the first time since their collective relaunches.
Given Guggenheim and co-writer Cullen Bunn’s obvious love of the classic X-Men stories, it seems appropriate that "Mojo Worldwide" will actually begin with the two teams playing softball. That's a tradition that dates back to the Chris Claremont Uncanny X-Men era. From there, Mojo comes to Earth and pits the X-Men against their greatest foes in a desperate bid for ratings. That’s got to be a metaphor for comics in general.

Game of Thrones Showrunners Explain “That’s Not You” Arya Line
Full spoilers for Game of Thrones: Season 7 continue below. Check out our review of "Stormborn."
Game of Thrones' second episode of Season 7 featured a reunion of two characters who haven't seen each other since Season 1: Arya Stark, and her direwolf Nymeria. If you'll remember, Arya sent her young pup away back after Nymeria attacked Joffrey in the series' second episode.

Captain Marvel’s Skrulls Explained
Note: With Captain Marvel hitting theaters this weekend, we figured it was time to freshen up on the history of the Skrulls once more. This story has been updated accordingly but is SPOILER-FREE for the movie.
The Captain Marvel movie will include several firsts for the MCU, like being set in the '90s and featuring a two-eyed Nick Fury. Perhaps the most notable new development, however, is the inclusion of the Skrulls in the film. And they'll be led by Ben Mendelsohn, no less!
Mendelsohn (Rogue One) plays the Skrull leader, Talos, in the highly anticipated Brie Larson film. But who are the Skrulls, and why do they have such a bone to pick with Captain Marvel? Let's break down everything you need to know about this troublesome group of Marvel aliens. (Also be sure to read about how Marvel Studios can even use the Skrulls, who were long believed to fall under 20th Century Fox's domain as far as their film rights.)
What Motivates Villain Killmonger in Black Panther
Michael B. Jordan, who stars as Erik Killmonger in Black Panther, spoke with IGN this weekend at San Diego Comic-Con about the motivations that fuel his villainous character in the upcoming Marvel movie.
"What I can say is that he definitely wants the throne," Jordan told IGN. "He's very strategic, thoughtful. He's very patient. Very well skilled, trained to a T. He works very hard, and he feels what he's doing is right."
For more on his role as Killmonger, including what sets the character apart from other Marvel villains and how he's similar to the X-Men villain Magneto, watch our full interview with Jordan below:
Why Skurge Betrays Thor for Hela in Thor: Ragnarok
The new trailer for Thor: Ragnarok that Marvel Studios debuted this weekend at San Diego Comic-Con offered a glimpse at Karl Urban's Skurge, who's seen allied with Cate Blanchett's Hela. IGN spoke with Urban about his role and why Skurge betrays Chris Hemsworth's Thor to side with the Asgardian goddess of death.
"When we find Skurge, he's operating the Bifrost because Heimdall is missing in action, and then pretty soon after that Hela shows up," Urban told IGN. "Skurge sees the writing on the wall and has to make a decision whether to die or join her, so his instincts of self-preservation take over."
