Trailers

In the thick of the Indie World presentation and I can’t help but be powerfully intrigued by Well Dweller. Well Dweller, created by the developer of Crypt Custodian and Islets, is a metroidvania (or search action game, if you like) with an interesting artstyle.

During the Nintendo Indie World showcase, Mina The Hollower was announced for the Nintendo Switch. Earlier this year the game got a notoriety boost with a demo being featured during Steam Next Fest. And the retro-style, A Link To The Past-looking game featuring a very cute sword-swinging mouse also has a demo out now on the Switch. Not too long to wait now, Mina the Hollower comes out on Switch and PC October 31st.

Looking at Kirby makes me happy, and with this new trailer for — and brace yourself it’s a doozy of a name — Kirby and the Forgotten Land – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Star-Crossed World, I couldn’t be happier. My favorite pink blobby boy is getting some new adventures with the game’s starry stages that let Kirby explore previously blocked off areas.

In A24’s Highest 2 Lowest — a remake of Akira Kurosawa’s High and Low — Denzel Washington plays a music mogul (rather than a show company exec) whose son (Aubrey Joseph) is being held for ransom. The movie’s new trailer doesn’t spoil much of the plot, but it does make it seem like Highest 2 is going to be a tense watch when it hits theaters on August 5th and Apple TV Plus on September 5th.

The next Spider-Man movie from Sony Pictures is currently scheduled for release a year from now, on July 31st, 2026, to kick off a new trilogy of Holland-led movies in the MCU five years after the last entry, Spider-Man: No Way Home.

In director Uta Briesewitz’s upcoming thriller American Sweatshop, a social media content moderator (Lili Reinhart) can’t move on from a gruesome murder she’s forced to watch as part of her job. The movie’s trailer makes it look like a smart way to focus on the real horrors people have to endure to keep the internet running, which might make it a surprise hit when it hits theaters on September 19th.

The new show from BoJack Horseman creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg hasn’t actually premiered yet — it starts streaming on August 22nd — but Netflix has already confirmed it’ll be getting a second season. In the meantime, you can check out this new trailer that sets up the time-jumping family story.

Square Enix closed out today’s Nintendo Switch 2 partner showcase with a game that features names liable to send you into fits of confused laughter. Launching next year, The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales is an HD-2D action RPG with a silly but acceptable name. (Elliot? Really?)

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, the hack-and-slash-style spinoff of the Legend of Zelda series, covers the canonical events that led to Tears of the Kingdom. Most importantly, the game covers what Princess Zelda was up to hanging out in the past with the very handsome Goat King of Hyrule.

Persona 3 Reload, the remake of Atlus’ Persona 3, is coming to the Switch 2 October 23rd. The game released last year to rave reviews on PC, PS5, and Xbox. Now, Atlus is finally ready to release the game on the Switch 2, because why should the other consoles get all the devil-summoning fun?

To start off today’s Nintendo Direct partner showcase, Capcom showed off the latest entry in the Monster Hunter Stories series. Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection is coming to the Switch 2 next year.

Drag x Drive, the Switch 2’s 3-v-3 wheelchair basketball game, is coming out next month and Nintendo has shared a new trailer. The game, the first exclusive to make extensive use of the Switch 2’s mouse controls, will test more than just your hoopin’ skills.

Larry (Miles Teller) needs a few beats to figure out that he’s dead in the new trailer for director David Freyne’s metaphysical romcom Eternity. But once he does, Larry realizes that he has to figure out a way to convince his recently-deceased wife Joan (Elizabeth Olsen) to spend the afterlife with him rather than her first husband Luke (Callum Turner). No firm release date just yet, but the film’s out this November.

Train Dreams, which was one of my favorite films at the festival this year, is streaming on November 21st, and will also be coming to select theaters this fall. It’s an understated and heartbreaking movie about coping with loss and change, telling a story that spans a single lifetime and is buoyed by some incredible performances from Joel Edgerton and Felicity Jones. You can get a feel for it in the new trailer below.

Pokémon Concierge, the adorable stop motion Netflix series, launches its second season very soon. The show, about hospitality worker at a resort exclusively for ‘mon and their humans, returns with new episodes September 4th. The announcement came during today’s Pokémon Direct and included a brand new trailer featuring all the new poké-friends you’ll make.

We knew Predator: Badlands was going to tell the story of an outcast Yautja forced to prove its worth by surviving on a planet full of monsters. But the movie’s latest trailer reveals that the Predator’s human-seeming companion Thia (Elle Fanning) is actually a Weyland-Yutani android, and the pair are going to find themselves fighting what appears to be... alien dinosaurs.

The first trailer for Mortal Kombat II — yes, there was a first one — is heavy on meta humor and, as you’d expect, on action. And it doesn’t look like it’s skimping on the gore. The good news is that the new movie will focus on the titular tournament when it hits theaters in October. Even better: Karl Urban is shaping up to be an excellent Johnny Cage.

That certainly seems like the premise of Pixar’s next feature, Hoppers, where people can inhabit 3D-printed versions of animals and live amongst the real ones in the wild. It also has a bit of a Wild Robot vibe, which isn’t a bad thing. Hoppers hits theaters on March 6th, 2026.

A sequel to Warner Bros.’ 2021 Mortal Kombat movie (which you definitely remember) is hitting theaters on October 24th. And when the movie’s first trailer drops tomorrow, we’ll be able to see whether Karl Urban’s Johnny Cage and Tati Gabrielle’s Jade are something to get excited about.

Beyond just the “coming soon” Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2, this Anime Expo 2025 teaser from Netflix highlights other animated releases that are either new or continuing, like Sakamoto Days, Beastars, Leviathan, and Splinter Cell: Deathwatch, and the upcoming “cozy MMO,” Spirit Crossing, that’s part of its new plan for games.

From director Julian Glander (Summer Camp Island), Boys Go to Jupiter revolves around Billy 5000 (Jack Corbett) — a gig worker whose life is upended when he stumbles across an alien egg that hatches into a small creature he must take care of. The movie looks equal parts inspired, adorable, and like something worth checking out when it hits theaters on August 8th.

Dead Take, the next game from Tales of Kenzera developer Surgent Studios and the first game published under Palworld’s Pocketpair Publishing company, has revealed two of its stars...and you’ll probably recognize them.

Our first look at Ari Aster’s upcoming feature Eddington made it seem like a pandemic-era drama, but the film’s latest trailer makes it feel like it’s going to be more of a politically-charged thriller when it hits theaters on July 18th.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ latest trailer features some cool new shots of the team using their powers to take on Galactus and the Silver Surfer, but its most surprising reveal is the fact that Ben Grimm can apparently grow a beard made out of his rock-like carapace.

If you’re of the rare homeowner set and even if you’re not there’s something powerfully attractive about a power washer. You point it at something dirty, pull the trigger, and it’s dirty no more (or if it’s glass, it is simply no more.)

If you’ve got an iPhone running iOS 18.4 or later, the Apple TV Plus tab of the TV app now features a trailer for the upcoming Brad Pitt F1 movie that’s now enhanced with vibrations created by the modern iPhone’s Taptic Engine.

In case you were wondering what sorts of new / returning series and movies are making their way to Apple TV Plus this year, the studio has just dropped a sizzle reel teasing some of what we can expect to see from Chief of War, Invasion season 3, Foundation season 3, Slow Horses season 5, and more.

The latest trailer for Marvel’s Ironheart Disney Plus series is (thankfully) light on plot details, but it’s chock full of snazzy shots of Riri Williams’ latest suit, which seems like it’s going to be able to channel magical energies when the show premieres on June 24th.
