Ion Sci-Fi keeps an eye on sci-fi entertainment and anything related, with news, views and reviews every week
The second DLC for released in December survival horrer The Callisto Protocol has released and it is remarkable, but not in a good way.
Never imagined being asked to pay for a harder difficulty level for a game. The bundle also includes cosmetics but it still feels cheeky charging customers for an extra hard mode.
Following explosive revelations in a Rolling Stone article detailing the reality behind the scenes and also potential social media fakery underpinning the Zack Snyder's Justice League recut, and DC CEO Jim Lee pouring cold water on the notion of a second revival, probably everyone regarded his DC run as over, but a fresh cryptic tweet from Zack suggests otherwise.
This week a look at new underground series Silo, a surprise Starfield announcement, Sam Worthington and Simu Liu in new AI film Simulant, disappointment for Star Wars fans as film projects cancelled, nun battles AI in new series Mrs. Davis and a great night for sci-fi at the Oscars.
We rarely see much in the way of sci-fi news from local streaming provider Stan but a recent promotion with accompanying trailer says they're home to a "critically acclaimed" sci-fi horror called From, heading into its second season.
Colour us curious.
The remake of the 1994 first person action adventure PC game System Shock has been delayed from March - which you may have noticed is half over - to May 30.
For the standard reason - they want more time to work on it.
Occasionally the sci-fi credential of upcoming games, films or series aren't completely clear until they release and one such is the recently released souls-like action roleplaying game Bleak Faith: Forsaken.
But it released and kind of bombed so our missing it seemed irrelevant until its developers were accused of stealing assets from last year's big hit, fantasy souls-like Elden Ring and earlier FromSoftware games.
Speaking ahead of Mrs. Davis' pre-release screening at Austin's SXSW event to The Hollywood Reporter, executive producers Tara Hernandez and Damon Lindelof have touched on the sometimes touchy topic of religion, as did we.
Saying that it felt "subversive and terrifying" to write a cool nun-heroine at a time when religious professionals are rarely viewed as heroic.
Going in with a stellar spread of nominations this year, science fiction won nine out of twenty-three categories.
Mostly by Everything Everywhere All at Once with seven but also one each for Avatar: The Way of Water and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
This week double disappointment for Star Trek fans, first details for Dune: Awakening MMO, will time-travel disaster series La Brea's third season be its last, a sneak peak at the Resident Evil 4 remake and a quirky new submarine simulator goes 1.0
From that title you might surmise that Wonder Woman has hauled Bruce's butt out of some proverbial fire but in this instance the Amazon we're referring to is the streamer.
Last year HBO cancelled in development animated series Batman: Caped Crusader, and Amazon have snapped it up with a two season order.
