Journey developer thatgamecompany will be hosting in-game charity events in their most recent mobile title, Sky: Children of the Light. The game will host charity initiatives for both Earth Day and COVID-19 relief, the developer has announced.

For Earth Day, April 22, thatgamecompany is teaming with One Tree Planted, a charity focused on reforestation, to plant trees in the Amazon and parts of Australia affected by the recent bushfires that swept across the country. Players will be able to purchase a “Days of Nature” pack in-game, which will process a donation and award them with a wearable cape, seen below.

The developer will also be taking part in the “#PlayApartTogether” campaign, and more DLC will be released for Sky soon “to help support those affected by the pandemic.” The specifics of this plan are still being worked out, but 100% of proceeds will eventually go to a charity of the developer’s choosing.

No Time To Die director Cary Fukunaga has shared one of his early ideas for the new Bond movie, and it’s really out-there. The director told Interview Magazine that he envisioned an idea where the whole story actually takes place in James Bond’s mind.

“I swear to god, I had an idea that this movie could all be taking place inside the villain’s lair from the last film,” Fukunaga said. “There’s this scene where a needle goes into James Bond’s head, which is supposed to make him forget everything, and then he miraculously escapes by a watch bomb. And then he and Léa blow up the place, and go on to save the day. I was like, ‘What if everything up until the end of act two is all inside his head?'”

That’s all Fukunaga had to say about it, so we don’t know if the producers vetoed the idea or if he wanted to pursue a different angle on his own, or something else entirely.

The next Fortnite update is arriving very soon, and as usual there will be a brief downtime while the game updates to v12.41. You can expect an update on Tuesday April 21, and downtime will begin at 2 AM ET (6 AM UTC).

You can also expect a free gift when you sign in after the 12.41 update–thanks to the success of Fortnite Trivia in the Epic-owned Houseparty app, everyone’s getting a free wrap.

It’s going to be a big week for Fortnite, as the game is also going to host a virtual performance from Travis Scott, debuting a new song. Click through the link for times and dates.

Fire Emblem is celebrating its 30th anniversary, as Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & The Blade of Light released in Japan on April 20, 1990. The game, which was eventually remade for the Nintendo DS, introduced series hero Marth, alongside numerous other characters who have not been as prominent in the series going forward. Now, to celebrate 30 years of Fire Emblem, several characters from that game are being added to mobile spin-off Fire Emblem Heroes.

The first character coming is actually the villain of that first Fire Emblem, Gharnef. He was the one who wanted to hatch the Shadow Dragon in the original, which would have allowed him to rule the world. He’ll be able to use his Dark Pontifex power in-game.

Linde, who inherited the tome of Aura and was on a quest for vengeance, has received a radical redesign for Fire Emblem Heroes, where she’ll be able to use her Light Mage ability. Similarly, Abel has lost his buck tooth from the original design, and his horse has changed from white to brown, but he hopefully he’s as loyal as he was in Shadow Dragon.

Fire Emblem Heroes recently added a subscription pass, so heavy users could get monthly benefits. The game has accounted for the majority of Nintendo’s earnings from mobile titles, so it’s fair to say that it’s a huge success.

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had a major effect on the entertainment industry, with the release of many of this year’s big movies delayed and postponed. It has also affected the production of various films that were set for a 2021 release. One of these is the DC movie The Batman, and it now been confirmed that it will be released four months later than planned.

As reported by Deadline, The Batman was set to hit theaters on June 25, 2021. However, it will now arrive on October 1. The film was several weeks into production in London before shooting was suspended in March. The site notes that only a quarter of the movie is shot, and that director Matt Reeves plans to return to London to resume production once it is safe to do so.

The Batman stars Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne, with Colin Farrell as the Penguin, Paul Dano as the Riddler, Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman, and Andy Serkis as Alfred. Official images of the new-look Batmobile were release in March, shortly before production was halted.

If you’ve dreamed of using Mario’s hat Cappy to pilot the out-of-place dinosaur from that one cave level of Super Mario 64, we have good news for you. The well-known Nintendo 64 modder Kaze Emanuar has released a project titled Super Mario Odyssey 64 that recreates many of the locales and mechanics of the Switch game, including using Cappy to control enemies, as well as a very polygonal Bowser in a top hat.

According to a trailer, the mod features 80 moons to collect in total. It’s only playable through an N64 emulator, and the process requires using a tool to patch a ROM of Super Mario 64. Though it’s currently available for download, Nintendo is famously vigilant in sending cease-and-desist letters to force fan-projects based on their properties to shut down, so interested parties might want to download it sooner rather than later. Pokemon Uranium and Another Metroid 2 Remake (AM2R) are two of the most notable projects to receive such treatment from Nintendo’s legal team.

If you can’t get enough Super Mario 64, you might be able to play it along with Odyssey on your Switch. According to reports, Nintendo’s latest console will soon get remastered versions of classic Mario games, including 64, Super Mario Sunshine, Super Mario 3D World, and Super Mario Galaxy. In other news, a rom-hacker named Ryan Bloom noticed that Super Mario 64’s smoke effect has been bugged for 24 years.
