Although Christopher Nolan’s next film, Interstellar, won’t be released until November 7, 2014, Paramount and Warner Bros. have released the first trailer for the film. Most of the trailer is filled with stock footage hinting at the history of flight leading up to space travel, but there are a few glimpses of actual film footage, and the whole thing is presented with the soothing tones of Matthew McConaughey in a voice over.

The trailer doesn’t really hint at much beyond the fact space travel is involved – something that’s backed up by, ya know, the title of the film. There are still a lot of questions revolving around the plot of Interstellar. According to the plot synopsis though, a team of scientists and explorers are sent to investigate a newly discovered wormhole connecting Earth to a different region of space. There are also said to be hints at time travel and alternate dimensions.

Interstellar stars McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, and Michael Caine. The script is written by Nolan and his brother Jonathan. The siblings previously worked together on The Prestige, The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises, and Jonathan’s short story became the basis for Momento.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order — “Cal’s Mission” Trailer

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order releases this November, and the action-adventure from Respawn Entertainment apparently contains all the classic Star Wars visuals and audio design fans love. In the game's latest trailer, those elements are certainly reinforced, but will they be enough to win over those suffering from franchise fatigue?

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: release date window, trailers, gameplay, and more

Indiana Jones standing in the jungle.

Grab your fedora, whip, and pistol because Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is plotting a course to consoles soon. After being announced via a small teaser in 2021, we're now finally starting to put the pieces together on the mystery that is this new title from MachineGames. While many very popular and successful games have been inspired by the Indiana Jones film franchise, including Uncharted and Tomb Raider, Indy himself has yet to star in a true action-adventure game worthy of his legacy. Will this game be the one to remind audiences who the true pioneer of set-piece action and globe-trotting puzzle-solving is? Only time will tell, but we can at least guess based on all the clues we've unearthed.
Release date window
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will be released is scheduled for release sometime in 2024. Considering the slate of titles currently announced from first-party publishers, and how little we've seen of this game in comparison, we'd expect it to arrive in the last few months of the year. Of course, it could always slip into next year as well.
Platforms

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, coming from Xbox-owned MachineGames, will be an Xbox console exclusive, but also be available on PC.

How to get to Monkey Island in Sea of Thieves

An election poster for guybrush in Sea of Thieves.

Over the course of its many years of updates and expansions, Sea of Thieves has had a few notable crossovers with other pirate franchises. The Pirates of the Caribbean crossover let you team up with the legendary Jack Sparrow, but the Monkey Island content felt like it came out of nowhere. For those unaware, Monkey Island is a series of pirate point-and-click games that were as funny as the puzzles were obscure. Thankfully, you don't have to intuit that you need to combine a cat whisker with a mason jar to bypass a skeleton guard to get to this new content, but it is more challenging than you might think.
