The second trailer for Netflix’s The Witcher series released Thursday morning, and with it comes a brand new glimpse into the world of monster hunters like Geralt of Rivia, and an actual release date. All eight episodes of The Witcher will debut on Netflix on December 20, 2019.
The trailer gives us a greater look at actor Henry Cavill’s interpretation of Geralt than previous teasers have. We see Geralt being questioned by a number of characters, all of whom appear to be dissecting the legend of the White Wolf in their own way. When one character insinuates that Geralt should have the marking of a monster, Geralt responds as dryly as only a witcher can, joking that he’s had his fangs and horns filed down.
The trailer reveals that The Witcher will be released worldwide on Netflix on Friday, December 20, meaning all eight episodes of The Witcher will finally be available to binge before the end of the year. Henry Cavill stars as the titular Geralt of Rivia, Freya Allen is portraying the Cintran Princess Ciri, and Anya Chalotra is the sorceress Yennefer. Watch the trailer below:
A new version of Battlefield V is available to buy digitally on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One today, October 31. Titled Battlefield V Year 2 Edition, it arrives just as Battlefield V’s big Pacific Theater update, War in the Pacific, kicks off.
The Year 2 Edition comes with the base game, allowing you to play Battlefield V’s hectic multiplayer and its single-player War Stories, as well as a host of year one content from the game’s Tides of War chapters. This includes 17 primary weapons like the Boys AT Rifle and MAB 38, four vehicles such as the Archer tank destroyer, and customisation options that comprise two Epic soldier outfits, 10 weapon skins, and four vehicle skins.
The Xbox One store also lists a Year 1 Catchup Pack for those who already own Battlefield V and want access to the year one content they didn’t have a chance to unlock, but it’s currently not available to purchase. If you skipped Battlefield V’s first year, this is a great way to jump in and gain access to all of the content you missed out on.
As a result of Battlefield V Year 2 Edition’s release, the Deluxe Edition and Deluxe Edition upgrade will no longer be available to purchase.
With War in the Pacific in full swing and update 5.0 implementing dozens of gameplay changes and bug fixes, now’s an ideal time to revisit Battlefield V or hop in for the very first time.
In GameSpot’s Battlefield V review, Michael Higham wrote, “Conquest and the map roster don’t mesh well together, however, Grand Operations–and the other modes within it–steal the show and foster some of the greatest moments the franchise has offered. You might be surprised by the impact of the slight changes made for this entry, especially when you’re deep into pushing or defending objectives in Frontlines alongside teammates fulfilling their roles. That’s when Battlefield V is at its best.”

Some of the notable film departures include the Oscar-winning Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, Zack Snyder’s action-packed Spartan epic 300, and Pixar’s heartwarming animated film Coco, which will not be available on Disney+ when it launches on November 12 (click here to find out everything coming to Disney+).
There were two big announcements for Game of Thrones fans this week. The news that HBO was not moving forward with the Naomi Watts-starring prequel show was quickly followed by the announcement of a full series order for another spin-off, titled House of the Dragon. Now George RR Martin, who wrote the novels that the franchise is based on, has commented on the situation.
Martin wrote on his blog about the HBO’s decision not to take the first prequel to series, and had much praise for showrunner Jame Goldman. “It goes without saying that I was saddened to hear the show would not be going to series,” he said. “Jane Goldman is a terrific screenwriter, and I enjoyed brainstorming with her. I do not know why HBO decided not to go to series on this one, but I do not think it had to do with House of the Dragon. If television has room enough for multiple CSIs and Chicago shows… well, Westeros and Essos are a lot bigger, with thousands of years of history and enough tales and legends and characters for a dozen shows.
“Heartbreaking as it is to work for years on a pilot, to pour your blood and sweat and tears into it, and have it come to nought, it’s not at all uncommon. I’ve been there myself, more than once. I know Jane and her team are feeling the disappointment just now, and they have all my sympathy.”
Nevertheless, Martin was clearly excited about House of the Dragon, which is based on his 2018 book Fire & Blood. He revealed that he first pitched the idea for the show to HBO back in 2016 and stated that as as well as reading Fire & Blood, fans should check out Dangerous Women and Rogues, two multi-author anthologies he edited with Gardner Dozois.
Martin also had much praise for House of the Dragon’s showrunners Ryan Condal and Miguel Sapochnik and said that while the filming locations for the show had not yet been decided, he expected that it would return to some of the places used throughout the eight years of Game of Thrones. As for whether he would be working on the show itself, Martin stated that while he would “love to write an episode,” he wouldn’t get involved until he finished his long-promised next novel, Winds of Winter.
Game of Thrones wrapped up its eight-season run back in May. Since then, showrunners David Benioff and D. B. Weiss have left HBO for a production deal at Netflix. They then also stepped down from the proposed trilogy of Star Wars movies they were attached to write and direct.

In a clip from The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday, the actress spilled the (coffee) beans on the disposable cup controversy that continues to surround The Last of Starks episode, as she revealed that Varys actor Conleth Hill was responsible for the viral error.
Mario Kart Tour is more than a month old now, but the promised multiplayer update hasn’t come yet. Nintendo promises that it’s still coming but won’t commit to exactly when we can expect it.
Wall Street Journal reporter Takashi Mochizuku shared the detail from a Nintendo earnings call on Twitter. The company reiterated that it plans to introduce online multiplayer, but can’t give further comment on details.
The game launched with single-player only, but it can be confusing since parts of it appear similar to online play–from bots with player-like usernames to performing an online check before starting a race. For the time being, you can add friends and even gain some rewards for doing so, but the only way to compete with them is indirectly. During Ranked Cup events, you can compare your score to your friends for bragging rights. The menu has said a Multiplayer mode is “Inbound!” since launch.
Mario Kart Tour is a very different take on the classic game tailored for mobile devices, making it more of a live game with seasonal events and characters to earn, along with microtransactions and even a Battle Pass-like subscription for extra rewards. On the whole we found that it has some good ideas that Nintendo could borrow for future console Mario Karts.
