Fall Guys developer Mediatonic have shared some new lore details regarding the popular battle royale game, and it’s truly a sight to behold.
Senior concept artist Tudor Morris has shared new art for Fall Guys, showing the anatomy of a fall guy. In this cursed image, we can see that a fall guy has a skull similar to a human, but the rest of their bone structure is more in line with a bird. Perhaps the most haunting part of this image is the oblong eyeballs that are disconnected from their eyesockets.

PS5’s Spider-Man: Remastered Upgrade Will Not Be Free For PS4 Owners
Sony recent held another big PlayStation 5 showcase, which offered a new look at Spider-Man: Miles Morales. After the event, Sony announced not only is the standalone adventure coming to PS4 and PS5, but that the original Spider-Man will be getting a PS5 remaster with a bunch on new graphical feature. The bad news? You’ll have to buy the game again.
In a situation similar to Control and its next-gen Ultimate edition, Sony is not offering a way for existing Spider-Man owners on PS4 to upgrade their version to the new PS5 remaster outside of buying the game again. In a statement from Sony, the company says the remaster won’t be sold as a standalone, meaning you’ll have to buy the $70 Miles Morales Ultimate Edition to get access to the remaster on PS5.
“There are no plans currently to offer Marvel’s-Spider-Man: Remastered as a standalone,” the statement reads. “Players with a copy of Marvel’s Spider-Man for PS4 can purchase Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales Ultimate Edition to experience Marvel’s Spider-Man: Remastered on PS5. Marvel’s Spider-Man for PS4 also will be backwards compatible on PS5.”
Black Widow Delayed Again, Shifting Several MCU Movie Release Dates
With many movie theaters throughout the United States still closed, Disney has done some major reshuffling of its film release calendar. Included among the moving titles is Black Widow, the next Marvel Cinematic Universe movie set to release in theaters. Instead of arriving in theaters on November 6, its new date is May 7, 2021, according to Deadline. It’s interesting to note that the original Black Widow release date was for May of this year, leaving it delayed at least a year–provided it ends up sticking with the May 2021 date. This also marks the first year since 2009 that there are no MCU movies in theaters, though WandaVision will premiere on Disney+.
With that delay comes several MCU projects moving to later release dates. Eternals, which was going to be in theaters on February 12, 2021, is now set to debut on November 5, 2021. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, which originally occupied the new Black Widow release date, will premiere on July 9, 2021. This also means that Eternals, which was originally set for theaters before Shang-Chi, will now arrive after it. So here is what to expect for the next few MCU releases:
- Black Widow on May 7, 2021
- Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings on July 9, 2021
- Eternals on November 5, 2021
Outside of the MCU, Disney has shifted a bunch of other release dates, as well. The King’s Man, a prequel to Kingsman: The Secret Service, will now release on February 12, 2021. Death on the Nile, originally set for October 23, is not set to hit theaters on December 18. The upcoming West Side Story remake from Steven Spielberg is facing the biggest delay. Originally slated for December 18 of this year, it’s shifting to December 10, 2021. Lastly, the adaptation of the Patricia Highsmith novel Deep Water moves from November 13 of this year to August 13, 2021.
Doom Eternal Is Likely Coming To Xbox Game Pass
Hell will soon be revealed for penny-pinchers like me. Doom Eternal is one of the most-acclaimed first-person shooters of the past few years. Now, it appears that the brutal sequel will soon make its way to Xbox Game Pass, based on a tweet from the service’s Twitter account.

As the above reply reveals, futzing with the image in Photoshop reveals an image below the attached email that reads “the slayer is coming.” The Doom reboot series has rechristened the Doomguy the “Doom Slayer” as part of its epic reimagining of the original games, thus suggesting that Eternal will soon come to the platform. Doom 2016 was previously available for Game Pass, but left the service back in May.
Considering that Microsoft just bought Bethesda, the publisher of these new Doom games, it makes sense that this high-profile sequel will come to Microsoft’s flagship games service. (The software giant claims the purchase isn’t about exclusivity, but we’ll have to see about that.) In GameSpot’s Doom Eternal review, our critic Phil Hornshaw called the game an intelligently-designed follow-up to one of the most intense shooters in years.
