The highly anticipated sequel to the 2018 awards darling hasn’t had a conventional path to completion as Ryan Coogler had to deal with the tragic passing of Chadwick Boseman in 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Real-time ray tracing is also exceedingly hardware intensive with only the most powerful gaming rigs being able to pull it off. Nvidia and AMD, the two big rivals, have proprietary technology in their high end GPUs to make the magic happen, and games are picking sides as to which they favor in marketing. It seems like some future games will go as far as restricting ray tracing to just one manufacturer, but Cyberpunk 2077 isn’t there yet - even though CD Projekt Red plastered Nvidia livery on all their marketing....

Developed by Black Forest Games and to be published by THQ Nordic, Reprobed seems to be a graphical remaster which retains just about everything else about the original Destroy All Humans! 2, so we’re not looking at a full-on remake that risks losing the charm of the source material. It isn’t clear when the game will launch - the trailer does not include a release date - or what platforms it will be released on, however the end of the video sports a lot of PlayStation branding, so it is definitely going to appear on Sony’s console....

Having said that, speedrunners, who make a living out of making everyone else feel they’re not good enough, are racing to the bottom to see who can finish Elden Ring the fastest. Right now, Distortion2 is on top. A month ago, the Elden Ring speedrunning record was below an hour, then speedrunners kept on going at it until Distortion2 beat the game in 12 minutes last week.

The billionaire entrepreneur, who actually dared to buy Twitter in October for $44 billion, has no one else to blame but himself for the oust.
