    “I’m so exhausted. I’m so tired.”

    That’s Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-hyuk talking to Variety in a story that explores how the show became a worldwide phenomenon and a massive business for Netflix. Most notable, though, is how much the creator seems done with it all:

    I’m so sick of my life making something, promoting something. So I’m not thinking about my next project right now. I’m just thinking about going to some remote island and having my own free time without any phone calls from Netflix.

    Now this is environmental storytelling.

    The Fortnite battle royale island has been snowed over for the holidays, and near the center is a giant block of ice — and it’s widely believed that it will slowly thaw to eventually reveal none other than Mariah Carey. This is exactly the kind of weird-ass stuff I play this game for.

    It’s the end of 2024, here’s footage of a cancelled Wii game.

    It’s always fascinating to glimpse games that never actually came out, and the Free Radical Archive — a group dedicated to archiving the studio’s cancelled games — has provided just that for Star Wars Battlefront 3. According to the group, this footage comes from a Wii build of the game that was “made in the final week of development.”

    Welcome to the Electric State.

    Netflix has released another trailer for The Electric State, a live-action film that looks like a slightly goofier take on artist Simon Stålenhag’s retrofuturistic book. This time the clip dives deep into the robot war that created its post-apocalyptic future. Directed by the Russo brothers, the movie starts streaming on March 14th.

    *bangs desk* Dino Crisis remake.

    Capcom surprised at The Game Awards with revivals of both Okami and Onimusha, but it sounds like there’s more on the way. The developer says that, in addition to its big franchises like Resident Evil and Monster Hunter, it’s “focusing on re-activating dormant IPs that haven’t had a new title launch recently.” Which can only mean one thing: Dino Crisis is getting a remake. (Please?)

    No Gods, Only Bangers.

    The surprise announcement of The Witcher 4 didn’t just look great — it also sounded appropriately epic as well. And now you can listen to the trailer’s new soundtrack, titled “No Gods, Only Monsters,” from composer P.T. Adamczyk.
