Nova has been in the works for a little while now, and Marvel’s head of streaming has shed some light on what to expect from the series.A good number of you probably haven’t heard of Nova before, even if he’s a relatively popular character in the comics, though you’ll likely recognise his look.

The classic mobile game Flappy Bird was announced to be making a return this week, except it’s not quite the comeback you think it is.I’m not going to ask you if you remember Flappy Bird, because of course you do, everyone does. It was a very OK mobile game that went viral about a decade ago in a way mobile games just can’t really do anymore, that eventually led to its creator Dong Nguyen removing it from the App Store completely due to the stress of its popularity and a concern over players becoming addicted to it. Earlier this week, a surprise announcement revealed that Flappy Bird is coming back, with a group called the Flappy Bird Foundation leading the charge on its return.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings This group claims to be a “new team of…

Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead wasn’t shy about the array of buffs it included in Patch 1.001.100, but it appears there may well have been an accidental one that’s slipped under the radar.

Those of you looking forward to playing Hunter x Hunter Nen x Impact are going to have to wait a while longer, as the game’s just caught a delay.Earlier this year, fighting game developer Eighting announced with Bushiroad Games that it would be developing a Hunter x Hunter fighting game, much to the delight and slight trepidation of fans of the series.
