The second season of Squid Game is coming in just a few months! The first season of the South Korean survival drama quickly became Netflix’s most-watched show ever. A second season was teased and fans have been waiting for it.
What we know so far:
Picking off where the first season ended we can expect to see the return of Seong Gi-hun (Player 456), played by Lee Jung-jae. Seong is on a mission to expose and dismantle the organisation behind the brutal competition. The season is expected to explore his transformation and his determination to stop the games, even as he faces new and deadlier challenges.
A trailer has been released and we can see our protagonist with his newly coloured pink hair. Very little has been revealed about the new plot so far, as it’s being held under wraps.
However the production team has anounced that fans can expect more of the high-stakes games that made the first season stand out. The introduction of new characters, including Young-hee’s boyfriend Cheoul-su.
Returning and New Cast Members
We know about several characters from the first season who will make a return. In addition to Lee Jung-jae reprising his role as Gi-hun, Lee Byung-hun will be back as the enigmatic front man, and Wi Ha-joon will return as detective Hwang Jun-ho. Gong Yoo, who played the mysterious recruiter, is also set to make an appearance.
We also get a list of new characters that will appear. Yim Si-wan, Kang Ha-neul, and Park Gyu-young. Not much is known about what their role will be in the upcoming season.
Release Date and Future Seasons
Netflix has confirmed that Squid Game Season 2 will premiere on December 26, 2024. If you worry about the story being over rest assured! A third season has already been planned and will be released in 2025!
In the mean time hopefully we will get more teasers and trailers that will provide glimpses into the dark and twisted world of Squid Game. With the stakes higher than ever, Season 2 looks to deliver us the same kind of suspense and tension the first season provided.

Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma Brings Its Village-Building Magic to PS5 and Xbox
Half a million people have already lost themselves in the fields and festivals of Azuma, and now PlayStation and Xbox players finally get their chance. Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma is making the jump to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on February 13, 2026, and if you’ve been waiting for a game where you can spend hours perfecting your village layout, wooing a literal god, and purifying corrupted lands with sacred dance powers, this might be exactly what you’ve been looking for.
While the game launched on Switch and PC back in June 2025, the PlayStation and Xbox versions aren’t just straight ports. You’re getting all the free post-launch content baked right into the base game from day one. Marvelous Europe is also throwing in the Rune Factory 4 Hero Outfit Bundle as a bonus for all digital versions.

The game drops you into Azuma, a sprawling Japanese-inspired world where you play as an Earth Dancer, essentially a mystical farmer with combat skills and the power to literally dance corruption away. But you’re not just tending your own plot of land, you’re rebuilding entire villages from the ground up, strategically placing buildings to bring people back and restore the land. You can recruit the villagers you’ve befriended to fight alongside you or help manage your growing empire.
What caught my attention is the sheer variety packed in here. You’ve got monster collecting, village construction, exploration across seasonal-themed areas, dynamic combat with new weapons like bows and talismans, and the classic Rune Factory romance options where you can court gods and mortals alike. The anime-style graphics look gorgeous, with each village drawing from different aspects of Japanese culture and festivals.

The digital editions start at €59.99 for standard, €69.99 for Digital Deluxe with the Seasons of Love and Festive Attire bundles, and €79.99 for Super Digital Deluxe that adds a soundtrack and art book. Physical editions for PS5 will be up for pre-order soon. If you’re planning to dive deep, you could easily sink a hundred hours into perfecting your villages, maxing out relationships, and hunting down every secret tucked away in those seasonal landscapes.

The Boys VR Game Announced: Trigger Warning Hits Quest & PSVR 2 in 2026
The writers’ room from The Boys actually worked on this game. That’s not the usual “inspired by” licensing deal where developers get a style guide and some logo files. Developer Arvore sat down with the people who craft those jaw-dropping twists and the cast who deliver them.
The Boys: Trigger Warning launches in 2026 for Meta Quest and PlayStation VR 2, putting you into an original story as a brand new Supe. You’re not playing as Homelander or Butcher. Instead, you’ll uncover a grotesque Vought secret that turns a family outing into carnage. So they’re not holding back on the show’s signature brutality.
Series creator Eric Kripke had been teasing “other kinds of video games” for weeks, and now we know what he meant. This stealth-action VR experience has you infiltrating Vought alongside The Boys, seeking revenge “in the most chaotic way possible.” If you’ve watched the show, you know exactly what kind of chaos we’re talking about.
The game drops the same year as the fifth and final season of The Boys, which premieres April 2026 on Prime Video. Vought Rising, the 1950s prequel series, is also on the horizon. Arvore seems positioned to expand the universe right when everything else wraps up.
We’ve seen Homelander pop up in Call of Duty and Mortal Kombat, but a dedicated game exploring original Vought horrors? That’s new territory. The Boys delivers hilarious, sometimes genuinely disturbing moments that keep you hooked with its wild storyline, so stepping into that world in VR sounds very exciting.
Keep your eyes on any gameplay footage for Vought facility details. Those production designers love hiding lore in background signage and corporate propaganda. We’ll be pausing every frame.
The Boys series returns for its fifth and final season in April 2026 on Prime Video.

Disney’s Moana Gets Stunning Live-Action Remake
There’s something undeniably special about watching a beloved story transform from animation to flesh and blood, and Disney’s upcoming live-action Moana looks set to deliver exactly that magic when it hits UK cinemas on 10 July 2026. The first trailer has dropped, and honestly? It looks stunning.
Catherine Lagaʻaia steps into the role of the ocean-called wayfinder Moana, while Dwayne Johnson returns as the shapeshifting trickster demigod Maui. Johnson’s already proven he can nail this character, and seeing him bring Maui to life in live-action feels like the natural next step. The trailer gives us that iconic ‘I Am Moana’ moment.

John Tui brings gravitas as Chief Tui, Moana’s protective father, while Frankie Adams portrays her spirited mother Sina. Rena Owen rounds out the family as the wise Gramma Tala, the character who sets everything in motion. There’s real cultural authenticity here, with actors from Auckland, Samoa and the Bay of Islands bringing genuine Pacific representation to the screen.
Director Thomas Kail, who made waves with Hamilton, seems to understand what made the original work. The trailer showcases the majestic island of Motunui, its vibrant people, and yes, those adorable yet intimidating Kakamora warriors. It’s a stunningly beautiful film packed with singalong moments that honour the source material while forging its own path.

Johnson produces alongside Dany Garcia, Beau Flynn, Hiram Garcia and Lin-Manuel Miranda, who’s clearly invested in protecting the musical legacy of the original. Having Auliʻi Cravalho, the voice of Moana in both animated films, on board as executive producer adds another layer of authenticity.
When Moana first voyages beyond Motunui’s reef, she’s answering the Ocean’s call and she’s carrying the hopes of her entire people. That journey promises to be just as powerful in live-action, and we’re here for every moment of it.
