Trailers have become a significant part of anticipation culture. These days, eager fans analyze every frame of any advance look at shows like Game of Thrones or movies like Avengers: Endgame. The Verge can help you find the latest trailers as they’re released — not just the biggest and most analysis-worthy sneak peaks, but teasers for promising indie films and streaming shows as well. Follow along for first-look sneak peaks at everything from Netflix’s latest releases to the newest Marvel Cinematic Universe film.
The third season of the HBO series starts streaming on February 16th, and will shift the setting to Thailand. It also introduces a whole new cast including the likes of Leslie Bibb and Walton Goggins.
In a sensible world, studios would just post trailers rather than appointment viewing events that need grand proclamations about their imminent arrival. But we live here and DC Studios wants you to know that the trailer for James Gunn’s Superman is dropping this Thursday.
This time it’s Lionel Messi, who joins the likes of former teammate Neymar, other athletes like Naomi Osaka and LeBron James, and musicians ranging from Billie Eilish to Snoop Dogg as playable characters. He’ll be available in the item shop starting at 7PM ET tonight.
During The Game Awards 2024, Mafia: The Old Country, debuted a new trailer. The game, launching in summer 2025, will get into one family’s struggle in La Cosa Nostra in 1900s Sicily to the delight (or potential dismay) of mobsters everywhere. RIP Paulie Walnuts, maybe this would have been a better “Old Country” experience than the one you had.
They just announced Stage Fright, another co-op experience that takes things in a spookier direction. (It’ll support both online play and couch co-op when it launches.) The game is also being published by No Man’s Sky maker Hello Games.
Tekken 8 is getting a new fighter. On December 16th, Clive Rosfield of Final Fantasy XVI will become the second ever Final Fantasy character to enter the King of Iron Fist Tournament. He, along with a FF16-themed stage will join Tekken 8 as a part of its winter update. It’s no Waffle House (or Tifa Lockhart for that matter) but I’ll take it.
Capcom is returning to a favorite, with the next entry in the action series subtitled Way of the Sword. It’s still a while out though — the game doesn’t launch until 2026.
The next major update for Helldivers 2 has a big focus on vehicles. It’s also out now.
The next entry in the fighting game series is being developed by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, the team behind the Yakuza and Like a Dragon franchises. It still sounds early though, as there is no release date, platforms, or even a final name.
Obsidian showed off a new glimpse at its sci-fi RPG, which is due out at some point in 2025.
The legendary creator of Shadow of the Colossus and The Last Guardian teased a new project that doesn’t currently have a name, but sure looks as gorgeous and melancholy as you’d expect from the designer.
Sloclap, the studio behind martial arts action games Sifu and Absolver, has debuted its new game which is very much nothing like either of those. Rematch is an online multiplayer 5v5 soccer game with emphasis on what the developers call, “skill-based gameplay.” Wonder if they’ll include a special “rest of the world” setting to call the game “football”.
If you can believe it, that’s the tagline for the next Pac-Man game, which is a gritty reboot of the arcade classic. Then again, if you watched Secret Level on Prime Video, it actually makes perfect sense.
Three of the studio’s movies will stream on Max in January: the horror flick The Front Room hits Max on the 3rd, documentary Look Into My Eyes streams on the 10th, and the thriller A Different Man rounds out the month on the 17th.
Harley Quinn (Kaley Cuoco) is getting the hell out of Gotham in the upcoming fifth season of her animated Max series premiering on January 16th. And a new trailer teases how her plan to start a new life with Poison Ivy (Lake Bell) is going to go a little left as they cross paths with Lena Luthor (Aisha Tyler), Lois Lane (Natalie Morales), and Brainiac (Stephen Fry).
If you’re a Netflix subscriber, you can now check out Monument Valley 3, which takes the beloved puzzle franchise in some interesting new directions. It’s available on both iOS and Android.
A new Apple TV Plus movie called The Gorge sees Miles Teller (Top Gun: Maverick) and Anya Taylor-Joy (Furiosa) standing guard on opposite sides of a mysterious gorge.
They’re only supposed to prevent whatever’s in the gorge from escaping, and they’re not to have any contact with one another — a rule they break, of course. The Gorge debuts on February 24th.
Most everyone’s feeling festive in the new trailer for Doctor Who’s latest Christmas special, but the Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) himself seems to be dealing with an existential crisis.
Neither he nor his new buddy Joy (Nicola Coughlan) seem to know why there are two of him at the same place and time. But they’ll probably have a blast figuring it out when the epidode debuts on December 25th.
Subtitled episodes of Dragon Ball Daima have been streaming on Netflix, Hulu, and Crunchyroll for some time now, but the series’ English dub starring Stephanie Nadolny as mini Goku and Paul Castro Jr. as mini Vegeta is finally coming to Crunchyroll on January 10th.
