Ion Sci-Fi keeps an eye on sci-fi entertainment and anything related, with news, views and reviews every week
After just recently teasing some kind of continuation of his DC Justice League stories which most were not expecting, film director Zack Snyder has teased a "ridiculous scale" roleplaying game related to his Netflix Rebel Moon films.
The first of which is expected in December.
Electronic Arts this morning released the story trailer for action roleplaying game Star Wars Jedi: Survivor and we are nonplussed.
It begins with fortune cookie "wisdom" about fire being cosy but dangerous, and ends with the suggestion that a place is only worth fighting for if the Empire isn't there.
With Doctor Who's 60th Anniversary return half a year away, we hadn't been expecting to hear much on this front for some months but the BBC have surprised us.
Preceding this year's specials will be a trans media event called Doom's Day.
Apparently it's news that home of our favourite pointy eared master of logic Spock, Vulcan, isn't real.
We never imagined it was but a recently published paper concludes that a previously reported possible Vulcan like planet in that system was a false positive.
We finally got around to watching an episode of Disney's not-a-superhero comedy Extraordinary, and while it is better than some of its promos made it appear, it was unexpectedly morally questionable.
For our tastes there's too much sex, but we don't regard sex as amoral. The problem is their treatment of consent. Spoilers ahead.
NASA have paid a small tribute to one of our favourite shows, The Orville, by using several character names and a fictional off world medical school in an example table in an official document.
ROSES - Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences - 2023. It's not quite as interesting as a talking flower voiced by Bruce Willis but Seth and the rest of The Orville gang are probably pleased.
In the matter of those suspiciously similar Elden Ring animations found in the recently released post apocalyptic souls like Bleak Faith: Forsaken, it appears that sci-fi didn't steal from fantasy but was in possession of stolen goods.
Developer Archangel Studios have committed to replacing all stolen assets in their game.
US Network Peacock have released the trailer for as wacky as it sounds upcoming nun fighting an A.I. apocalypse series Mrs. Davis which in Australia is headed for Binge.
Comedically we wouldn't say its hitting every joke out of the park but on the whole we like what see, with two notes. One of those is potentially problematic.
Amid persistent rumours that Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League will be delayed to later this year or next and with last year's Marvel Midight Suns and Gotham Knights both bombing to different extents, fans of comic inspired or themed gaming might be pleased to know that there's another indie title looking to scratch your itch - Lethal Honor: Order of the Apocalypse for which there is now a gameplay overview trailer.
