Twisted Metal has been one of PlayStation’s more successful attempts to branch out into adaptations based on its IPs, with the Peacock-distributed show seeing high praise and record viewership numbers across its two Seasons. Despite some major shake-ups on the creative side of things, Season 3 of Twisted Metal looks to be going ahead, with Mark Hamill reportedly set to join the cast.

According to Hollywood insider Jeff Sneider via the ‘Insneider’ newsletter (paywalled), Mark Hamill is set to join Season 3 of Peacock’s Twisted Metal TV show. As of now, no exact details on his role have been revealed, though according to Sneider Hamill will likely “be playing Charles Kane, the father of Sweet Tooth.”

As mentioned, the Twisted Metal show saw a ton of success following the arrival of its first Season back in 2023, becoming Peacock’s “most binged” show at the time while amassing solid reviews across the board.

Its second Season (released last year) saw an even greater reception, landing with a Rotten Tomatoes score of 92%. A 3rd Season of the show was quickly greenlit following this, however it is set to come alongside some pretty big changes behind the scenes.

As reported late last year, Twisted Metal Season 3 is not being handled by the same creatives, with showrunner and co-creator Michael Jonathan Smith being replaced by David Reed. Additionally, Mike Mitchell (who portrayed the character Stu) confirmed a few months ago that he would not be returning for Season 3.

Given the many changes which have occurred behind-the-scenes between the successful arrival of Season 2 and the upcoming Season 3, it will be interesting to see how reception towards the series changes moving forward.

EA and Battlefield Studios have officially launched the third season of Battlefield 6 with its first phase, Warlords: Supremacy, adding three new weapons, new attachments, a Ranked Battle Royale queue for Battlefield REDSEC, and most importantly, the introduction of the Railway to Golmud map. Golmud, which is now the largest map in Battlefield 6, has also helped drive the best spike in the game's concurrent player numbers on Steam in months. Battlefield 6 has struggled in comparison to its numbers at launch. The last time it held a concurrent player count of over 100K players on Steam was in January […]

The big Season 3 update for Battlefield 6 has dropped today. In phase one of the new season, fans will get access to two classic maps reimagined for Battlefield 6, alongside a new Ranked game mode to try out.

One of the new maps joining Battlefield 6 is actually the largest map in the series' history, as DICE looks to make up for the lack of new large-scale maps for the game since launch. The map is called Railway to Golmud, a reimagining of the Golmud Railway map from Battlefield 4, including the fully operational moving train, so watch out when near the tracks.

This update also sees the debut of Ranked Play. Launching in Battle Royale Quads in REDSEC, this is the introduction of Battlefield's new competitive framework. Ranked Seasons will feature a tiered ranking system from Rookie to Master, with a unique emblem for the top 250 players globally. Players earn Ranked Points through confirmed kills and assists, and final placement, with rewards such as player cards and titles to show off their prowess on the battlefield.

In June, Phase 2 will begin, bringing another reimagined map, a rework of Battlefield 3's Grand Bazaar. Other highlights from season 3 include a new Handheld Jammer gadget, and a brand-new Battle Pass.

After Season 2 of the best-selling game in 2025 was delayed, causing a great deal of strife within the game's community, EA and Battlefield Studios aren't allowing for the same gap between Season 2 and Season 3 of Battlefield 6.

Despite the wider sentiment surrounding Call of Duty being far from its peak, Treyarch’s Black Ops 7 has been keeping fans engaged with a ton of post-launch support being released on a consistent basis.

Between the initial Season 3 and this upcoming Reloaded update, Treyarch are  continuing to hold true to their promise that Black Ops 7 will be their most supported game to date. BO7 S03 Reloaded officially goes live on the 30th of april.

KitGuru says: What do you think of Black Ops 7’s post-launch support so far? Have they won you over? What are your expectations for Totenreich? Let us know down below.

After what was a record-breaking launch, EA’s Battlefield 6 has failed to maintain its momentum, with the game’s post-launch support unable to match the expectations set by other live-service experiences. That said, EA and DICE are still committed to the project, with the team now teasing their full 2026 roadmap.

Taking to YouTube to release a 6-minute dev talk (also detailed via their blog), the team at Battlefield Studios offered an early taste at everything fans can expect to look forward to throughout the rest of 2026.

While the live-service FPS has been off to a bit of a slow start with its first two post-launch Seasons, the rest of the year should hopefully be more feature-rich with 3 more Seasons in total scheduled for 2026.

Though we of course have not been given a full breakdown of everything to expect, Season 3 of Battlefield 6 is set to introduce:

• Railway to Golmud map
• Cairo Bazaar map
• Ranked Play 
• Battle Royale solos

Season 4 meanwhile will add:

• Tsuru Reef map
• Wake Island map
• Aircraft carriers with operational flight decks
• New naval vehicles
• Dynamic wave system
• Custom lobbies
• Spectator mode

2026 will conclude with the arrival of Season 5, though details on what to expect remain light; with the team simply sharing a teaser image for what appears to be a flamethrower of sorts.

Outside of new content, 2026 will also introduce many different quality-of-life improvements, including:

• A server browser with persistent servers
• Multiplayer leaderboards
• Platoons
• Proximity Chat
• Visibility enhancements
• Progression changes
• Map reworks

In the past few months sentiment surrounding Battlefield 6 has taken a drastic fall, and so while many of these additions likely should have been available since its initial launch, it is welcome nonetheless to see that BF Studios are trying to turn the game into what was originally promised/expected.

Officially going live later today, Black Ops 7 Season 3 is being split up in two halves as per usual (with the second half ‘Reloaded’ update arriving in roughly a month’s time. Even at launch however, Season 3 is set to introduce a great deal of substantive additions, including but not limited to:

• Zombie Battle PvPvE mode
• Warzone ‘big map’ rotation
