Slay the Spire 2 is coming to early access next year with a new hero
MegaCrit Games announced Slay the Spire 2 during the Triple-i Initiative Showcase.
Slay the Spire 2 was revealed with an animated trailer that shows three warriors returning to the spire as they prepare to ascend it once again. This trailer confirms that The Ironclad and The Silent will be making a comeback. The third character is a lich called The Necrobinder.

This PS5 bundle saves you $70 on the console and Spider-Man 2
Gamers who haven't upgraded to the PlayStation 5, this is the offer that you've been waiting for -- the PlayStation 5 Slim Marvel's Spider-Man 2 bundle for only $450 from Best Buy. The console already costs $500 and the game sells for $70, so you're looking at savings of $120 if you purchase this bundle. You're going to have to act fast though -- while the supply issues of the PlayStation 5 are a thing of the past, it still flies off the shelves, so if you don't want to wait for the next restock, you better complete your transaction as soon as possible.
Why you should buy the PlayStation 5 Slim Marvel's Spider-Man 2 bundle
The PlayStation 5 has been updated with the PlayStation 5 Slim, which is more than just a smaller version of the popular console. There's no performance upgrade between these two versions, but you do get slightly more built-in storage at 1TB from 825GB. That translates to usable storage of around 842GB from 667GB, which is nearly 200GB of space that you can fill with installed games, save data, screenshots, and more. The console still comes with the impressive DualSense controller, which offers haptic feedback and adaptive triggers.
Marvel Rivals turns Overwatch into the Earth’s mightiest superhero shooter
The “hero shooter” is a popular competitive multiplayer game subgenre where players control characters with powerful preset abilities rather than a customizable loadout. Although "hero" is right there in the subgenre name, and Overwatch proved how well superheroes could work with the concept, we haven't gotten a true attempt at this style of game from Marvel or DC.
Marvel Rivals is out to change that, starting with its first open alpha this May.
