Warrior Cats Coming to Disney+ and The Disney Channel

The beloved, long-running children’s fantasy book series “Warrior Cats” is being adapted into an animated TV series for Disney+ and Disney Channel, following a deal between Coolabi Group and Disney Kids & Family. Based on the feline fantasy book saga that has become a worldwide publishing phenomenon, “Warrior Cats” is currently in production and slated to premiere in 2028.

Original Force, a global leader in CG and game content creation, is the animation studio for the series on behalf of Tencent Video, with renowned Showrunner A.C.Bradley (Ms Marvel, What If?, Tales of Arcadia:Trollhunters) at the helm of the new show. Emmy award-winning Rodrigo Blaas (Star Wars: Sith, Tales of Arcadia:Trollhunters, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Wall-E) is on board to direct the series with the collaboration of El Guiri Studios.

Created by Working Partners, a Coolabi Group company, and penned by Erin Hunter, the hugely successful “Warrior Cats” book series is about clans of wild cats. The series has sold over 90 million books to date, has been translated into 38 languages, and has been a fixture on the New York Times bestseller list for the last 20 years.

This is the first authorized animation of “Warrior Cats” and will follow the core storytelling of the first series of books, “Warrior Cats: The Prophecies Begin.”

With a huge and passionate worldwide fanbase, the franchise has garnered more than 2 million annual users on the official “Warrior Cats” website last year, 50 million views per month across user-generated content on YouTube, and nearly 3 billion views on TikTok. The “Warrior Cats: Ultimate Edition” game on Roblox consistently places among the highest-ranking branded games on the platform and has been played more than 735 million times.

“Warrior Cats” joins Disney Kids & Family’s growing slate of animated storytelling for Disney+, alongside beloved series including “Bluey,” “Mickey Mouse Clubhouse+,” Marvel’s Spidey and his Amazing Friends,” “Big City Greens” and “Phineas and Ferb.” The series reflects the division’s continued focus on creating stories filled with magic, wonder, adventure and heart for a new generation of kids and families.

“We’re always seeking out fresh, imaginative storytelling that resonates with families around the world,” said Ayo Davis, president, Disney Kids & Family. “‘Warrior Cats’ has inspired a generation of fans, and we couldn’t be more excited to partner with Coolabi Group to bring this phenomenal series to life on Disney+ and Disney Channel.”

Allison Watkins, EVP at Coolabi Group, says: “Following our development deal with Tencent Video in 2024, we have been working hard to find the perfect home for ‘Warrior Cats.’ We couldn’t be more thrilled that Disney has come on board the project, and we look forward to delivering a truly exciting new series to ‘Warrior Cats’ fans across the globe. 2026 has already seen the successful launch of ‘Warrior Cats’ toys at retail in the U.S., and we anticipate a whirlwind year ahead for the brand.”

Will Harrison, CEO of Coolabi Group, adds: “We are so grateful to Allison and former CEO Jeremy Banks for brokering such a key deal with Disney on behalf of Coolabi and Tencent Video. Disney is the perfect partner for such a hugely loved brand, and we look forward to expanding the fanbase further both in the U.S. and globally when the series hits the small screen.”

Fist of the North Stars Kenshiro to Join Season 2 of FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves

SNK CORPORATION today released the character trailer for Fist of the North Star’s Kenshiro, who descends upon South Town this June. Kenshiro will also be playable at EVO Las Vegas, which takes place June 26-28.

Three months after his landmark reveal at AnimeJapan 2026, the savior of the century’s end makes his way to South Town. Kenshiro packs a powerful punch, boasting fast and formidable strikes, channeling point activations and status changes, and impressive combo options sure to leave the opposition reeling. Control space and keep foes guessing with Kenshiro’s hard-hitting, highly technical tool kit, and victory will be yours in an instant.

Kenshiro, The Savior of Century’s End

  • Voice Actors: Clayton Alexander (EN), Shunsuke Takeuchi (JA)
  • Bio: Post-apocalyptic savior with seven distinctive scars carved onto his chest. As sole successor to the ultimate assassination art, Hokuto Shinken, he treads a perilous path; indeed, a dangerous yearning for Hokuto Shinken by forces unknown is what calls him to the forsaken City of the Wolves in the first place. Though worlds collide and divide, Kenshiro’s crusade against evil never wavers. To the weak, lost, and broken, he extends a helping hand; to those who prey on them, he metes out merciless justice.

Kenshiro in Arcade Mode and Episodes of South Town (EOST)

  • Arcade Mode: Kenshiro stirs and slowly takes in the unfamiliar surroundings. This is not the desolate urban wilderness he calls home, but a modern-day metropolis: South Town. A city where the weak suffer, and tyrants run rampant. Kenshiro clenches his fists and (together with like-minded heroes Terry, Hokutomaru, and Hotaru) pledges to enter the new King of Fighters tournament. He has but one goal: to confront Wolfgang Krauser, who treats the city as his own personal dominion.
  • Episodes of South Town: Kenshiro wakes in South Town and meets Terry, Mai, and other resident fighters. Then it dawns on him: a mysterious miasma permeates the city streets, and it’s up to him to find out why. Steeling his resolve, the post-apocalyptic warrior sets off into the darkness that is the City of the Wolves.

Players who want to get to know this explosive man can either pick up Season Pass 2 for $19.99 / €19.99 if they already own the base game, or purchase FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves Legend Edition (Season Pass 1 + 2) at 40% off for $29.99/€29.99.

The game will be available on September 24, 2026, on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

More than just a colorful adventure, Garfield – Escape from Monday captures the spirit of one of the world’s most beloved entertainment franchises in an all-new interactive experience. Designed to appeal to audiences nostalgic for Jim Davis’s famous “cattitude” and gaming enthusiasts, Garfield – Escape from Monday breaks the mold. Players will master the technicality of feline movements, manage unique abilities tied to 3 exclusive costumes Garfield can wear in-game (turkey, surfer, cowboy), and confront a variety of formidable bosses throughout their journey. This story into the heart of the nightmare promises to be a thrilling ride for players worldwide.

Red Alert: A Nightmare in the Kitchen… and in his Sleep!

For Garfield, spending most of his time sleeping is part of the routine. But spiraling into a bizarre nightmare full of vegetables, sugar-free candies, and other unimaginable horrors, even the world’s laziest cat knows something is wrong!

After Jon fed him spinach lasagna inspired by Chef Monday’s recipe, Garfield falls into a deep sleep… in order for Garfield to wake up from the nightmare and reactivate his taste buds, he must embark on a deliciously chaotic adventure, where players will explore worlds packed with enemies, challenges, and lasagna.

Thankfully, Garfield can rely on Jon and his friends Odie, Arlene and Pookie, as well as a collection of special costumes, including turkey, surfer and cowboy, each with its own unique skill, to overcome the dangers lurking within Garfield’s dreams.

Farmer’s Dynasty 2: Free Update Adds Riverside Sawmill Update

The momentum doesn’t stop. Following numerous patches since the Early Access release of Farmer’s Dynasty 2 and the latest free update „Historical Machines“ the rural open world of Green Thorn Valley now has another attraction. Independent development team UMEO Studios and publisher Toplitz Productions have released a new free content update, which introduces the Riverside Sawmill as a fully functional facility.

After purchasing the property in-game, aspiring farmers can use the sawmill as a production site for premium lumber, thus expanding the variety of goods they have available for use in their renovation projects or, of course, to generate a profit.

Logs transported to the sawmill can be processed in a variety of ways. They can be debarked and sold directly or cut into plank pallets, for example, which in turn can be sold immediately or dried to increase their market value.

To enhance the atmosphere of the lumberjack setting, water-based transportation for logs has been implemented. This opens new logistics routes and gameplay strategies, making the prime riverside location of the sawmill even more valuable.

Features of the Riverside Sawmill update at a glance:

  • New property available: Fully functioning sawmill as a premium production site with full visual customization
  • Water-based log transportation
  • New products, e.g. dried wood planks with increased value
  • New furniture based on new wood types
  • New achievements connected to the Riverside Sawmill
  • New machinery

The next step on the roadmap will be the „Beets & Potatoes“ Update, scheduled for next month. It will introduce not only new produce to the ever-expanding world of Farmer’s Dynasty 2, but add a new storage building as well as four crop-specific machines, including potato harvesters and beets seeders.
