Yeah. We’re thinking he’s back. Today at the Sony State of Play Showcase, global content leader Lionsgate (NYSE: LION) and best-selling video game publisher and developer Saber Interactive announced a new AAA video game based on Lionsgate’s billion-dollar John Wick franchise. Tailored for mature audiences and currently in development for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, the new single-player third-person action game will combine John Wick’s unparalleled, adrenaline-fueled “gun-fu” fighting style with Saber’s proven reputation for creating thrilling gaming experiences that leave players craving more.

Hasbro, a leading games, IP and toy company, is officially kicking off a year-long celebration of THE TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE’s 40th anniversary that honors the film for its epic action, iconic characters, and that tragic moment fans are very much still processing.
In 1986, THE TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE rolled into theaters and proved that animated films can pull an emotional punch that can last across decades. The Autobots and Decepticons went to war, and in a moment that audiences young and old were not prepared for, Optimus Prime was defeated in an epic showdown with his arch-nemesis Megatron. This single moment hit hard and quietly taught millions of kids that great leadership sometimes comes with sacrifice. Decades later, the movie has only grown more legendary through home video re-releases, theatrical revivals, and generations of fans passing the Matrix of Leadership down to new viewers accompanied by a gentle reminder of that heart-wrenching scene.
The animated classic featured an all-star voice cast including Peter Cullen (Optimus Prime), Frank Welker (Megatron), Orson Welles (Unicron), Judd Nelson (Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime), Leonard Nimoy (Galvatron), Eric Idle (Wrek-Gar), and Robert Stack (Ultra Magnus).
“THE TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE marked a defining moment for the franchise,” said Alyse D’Antuono, Vice President, Global Brand & Franchise Strategy, Action Brands, Hasbro. “From the emotional impact of Optimus Prime’s passing to the dynamic storytelling that followed, we recognize just how powerful, and unforgettable, that moment remains. This anniversary is about honoring the legacy, thanking fans for four decades of loyalty and passion as Hasbro and our partners mark this milestone across entertainment, toys, and …More Than Meets The Eye surprises, with additional anniversary news to follow.”
THE TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE 40th anniversary APOLOGY TOUR experience includes:
The 1986 Apology Tour: Forty years later…it still hits like a truck. The loss of Optimus Prime remains one of the most talked-about moments in franchise history. Hasbro is leaning into that shared experience with a playful, year-long “1986 Apology Tour,” bringing fans together to grieve, heal, and reminisce together at special fan events & screenings all year long. More information to follow and tissues strongly encouraged.
Hasbro THE TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE 40th Anniversary Lineup: To make it up to fans, Hasbro has revealed a new wave of products celebrating the film’s milestone anniversary. For the first time ever, fans can experience THE MATRIX OF LEADERSHIP premium electronic movie replica alongside new STUDIO SERIES additions featuring Shockwave, Skywarp, Wheeljack, Kranix, Sunstreaker, Astrotrain and Snarl.

The creators of the game hit cooking simulation franchise have unveiled the newest full gameplay trailer for Cooking Simulator 2: Better Together, offering players and media an in-depth look at the next evolution of virtual culinary gameplay. The newly released trailer highlights the sequel’s expanded co-op mechanics, deeper progression systems, and enhanced realism, while doubling down on the unpredictable, emergent gameplay that made the original title a global success.
Developed as a major step forward for the series, Cooking Simulator 2: Better Together expands the kitchen sandbox with new gameplay systems, collaborative mechanics, and creative tools designed to appeal to both simulation enthusiasts and social multiplayer audiences.
Watch the trailer below:
A Kitchen Built for Cooperation and Chaos
With online co-op experience, allowing players to run professional kitchens together for the first time in the franchise, the gameplay trailer showcases players coordinating food preparation, plating dishes, and managing customer orders under pressure – while also capturing the series’ signature chaotic moments when plans inevitably fall apart.
Players can divide responsibilities, specialize in specific kitchen roles, or improvise their way through service. The developers emphasize even though co-op gameplay is not simply an add-on, but a design pillar intended to create highly dynamic, streamable, and replayable gameplay scenario – the game can be played in solo mode.
Expanded Culinary Depth and Creative Freedom
Cooking Simulator 2 significantly expands the gameplay depth introduced in the original game. The sequel features:
Over 200 ingredients
A wide range of authentic recipes
A fully reworked skill and perk progression system
Expanded guest AI and behaviour scenarios
A more advanced plating and presentation system
One of the standout additions revealed in the trailer is the new Blueprint System, which allows players to follow step-by-step recipes, create their own culinary creations, and refine dishes over time. Players can design original dishes using available ingredients and cooking techniques, then add them to their restaurant menu and serve them to guests. This system is designed to support both accessibility for new players and creative freedom for experienced chefs.
The game also introduces enhanced visual feedback systems inspired by real-world cooking senses, helping players better understand food preparation, timing, and quality through intuitive cues rather than traditional UI prompts.
