Grezzo, the development house behind the 3DS remakes of Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask is recruiting for a new project utilising Unreal Engine 4.

The Japanese development team has posted an “emergency recruitment” notice on its company website. The banner at the top translates to: “Would you like to make a legend together 2”.

That 2 is in reference to the fact that Grezzo had previously used the same sentence when hiring for Majora’s Mask 3D before it was officially revealed.

The listing asks for C++ programmers with experience in Unreal Engine, as well as 3D character and map modelers, suggesting that the ‘Legend’ project will be a 3D title made in Unreal Engine 4.

Every DC movie so far has been well over two hours in length, and in the case of the extended cut of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, a full three hours. Considering that the upcoming Justice League features five of DCs biggest heroes, it was expected that the movie would have a similar running time. So many fans were surprised when it was confirmed that it is just 119 minutes, making it the shortest film in the DC cinematic universe so far.

It has now been reported that the reduced running time was ordered by Warner CEO Kevin Tsujihara, as opposed to a decision of the filmmakers. According to the Wall Street Journal, Tsujihara issued a “mandate” that Justice League come in under two hours, as a reaction to what was felt to be the overly extended running time of Batman v Superman.

The site also states that the studio was actively seeking a film that was lighter in tone than Batman v Superman or 2014’s Man of Steel. When original director Zack Snyder delivered a first cut of the movie earlier in the year, it was “felt [Snyder] had made progress with the lighter elements.” However, Warner wanted to go further and brought in Avengers director Joss Whedon to write new scenes for the movie’s reshoots.

Whedon took over directing the reshoots when Snyder stepped away from the production in January, following a family tragedy. In August, actor Joe Morton, who plays who plays Dr. Silas Stone in the movie, confirmed that the reshoots were designed to lighten the film’s tone.

In a recent interview, Batman actor Ben Affleck addressed the issue of how much influence Whedon ultimately had over the film. “The movie is Zack’s DNA,” he said. “The cast of the movie, the design of the movie–there’s something that people who don’t actually work on movies don’t understand, which is how much of the work is done in prep–the casting, the sets get built, the story is written. The ship is, in essence, sailing. I found as a director you can maybe change 10%, 15% or something, on the day.

“Zack’s ship set sail with us, and we were fortunate that when Zack was not able to continue, we got really lucky in that we got a guy who is very accomplished in his own right, and particularly in this genre, and he kind of sprinkled some of his fairy dust on our movie and finished it.”

“I don’t think there’s any way to go back, to me, and look at those scenes and go, ‘That’s a Joss scene, that’s a Zack scene,'” Affleck continued. “It was more that they were both working together toward a common goal. Debbie [Snyder, who produced the movie] would know better than I would, certainly, but I got the sense that Joss was working from what he had discussed with Zack before he stepped in.”

Justice League hits theaters on November 17.

Four major societies of film critics have denounced Disney and announced that they will disqualify all films made by the media giant from consideration in their end-of-year awards.

Last week, Disney said the Los Angeles Times had not met “basic journalistic standards” in its reporting about Disneyland in Anaheim, and chose to bar the newspaper’s journalists from advance screenings of its films (which includes Marvel and Star Wars).

In a statement (below), the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, the New York Film Critics Circle, the Boston Society of Film Critics and the National Society of Film Critics denounced the action, and set up their own boycott.

NetherRealm held a livestream today where it provided an in-depth look at Injustice 2‘s next DLC character, Hellboy. If you missed the stream, you can watch the Hellboy part of it through the video embed above. Watch and you’ll see developers from NetherRealm show off and discuss Hellboy’s moves and combos.

As you’ll see, Hellboy is a bruiser and a brawler. He also appears to be quite quick, despite his larger-than-life size. Check out the video above to see him in action.

Hellboy is the final character to come to Injustice 2 through the game’s Fighter Pack 2. He arrives on November 14, so there isn’t much more time to wait. After that will be Fighter Pack 3, which includes Atom and other characters to be revealed later. NetherRealm will release the reveal trailer for the Fighter Pack 3 this week, so we will soon probably know a lot more.

In other news, NetherRealm today announced the release date for Injustice 2’s PC version. You can play the game’s 1v1 open beta on PC right now ahead of launch.

Microsoft is going all-out to promote the launch of the Xbox One X today. Xbox boss Phil Spencer appeared on CNBC today to talk about the business of the Xbox One X, and on the less serious side of the Microsoft marketing machine is a new Conan O’Brien video in which UFC star Ronda Rousey demonstrates “the true power” of the console.

It’s not what you expect. Take a look at the video below to see Rousey demonstrate the power of the system. O’Brien and Andy Richter join in later for another silly moment.

Rousey has been in the news lately regarding video games. She went to BlizzCon 2017 over the weekend and dressed up as Death Knight. She also got some hands-on time with World of Warcraft’s new expansion, Battle For Azeroth, and revealed that she once spent $1,300 on WoW cards in an unfortunately unsuccessful attempt to get a rare mount.

The Xbox One X, which is priced at $500 in the US, is available now worldwide. The new console plays all Xbox One games and works with the same controllers. For lots more on the device, check out GameSpot’s feature, “Xbox One X Release Date, Games, Review, And Everything You Need To Know.”
