In what will likely be the most memorable moment of Gamescom Opening Night Live, a very emotional Tim Miller, co-founder of Blur Studios and director of Deadpool, has shown of footage of the upcoming Amazon Prime video game anthology series, Secret Level. This is coming so fast, but I definitely saw Mega Man in there.

One of the biggest surprises from Gamescom Opening Night Live was the reveal that Techland has been working on a new Dying Light game. The beloved FPS series that combines zombie slaying action with satisfying parkour traversal started back in 2015 and was followed by Dying Light 2: Stay Human in 2022.

Dying Light: The Beast needs to lean into this forgotten feature

Last week, we wrote about an upcoming TV project that caught our eye mostly on the basis of how incredibly weird it sounded, to our “Not actively involved in making either TV or video games” ears: Secret Level, a new animated anthology series created by Love, Death + Robots‘ Tim Miller, and set in the world of a number of existing video games. (Including The Outer Worlds, Unreal, Armored Core, and more.) That felt extremely strange to us, especially since it meant video game brands from a whole bunch of different studios would be getting smooshed together, which developers are usually kind of leery about. At the very least, we thought, it’d produce a weird trailer when it hit the Gamescom conference the following week.

Cosmic encounters are out there in The Sims 4. If you’re trying to get your own Sims abducted and encounter some extra-terrestrial life, here’s how. For starters, in order for your Sim to get abducted, you need to have The Sims 4: Get to Work expansion installed. Secondly, there are slim chances (roughly 25%) of the Sim returning with an alien baby brewing in their belly, and this can only happen to male Sims in the game. Female Sims can also get abducted, but they will only return with a moodlet.
