After Superman and Batman brawl in 2016’s sequel to Man Of Steel, the whole DC Comics team will finally get together for a Justice League movie, according to Warner Bros. The announcement seemed all but inevitable given the addition of Ben Affleck as Batman to the Man Of Steel sequel and recent casting for veteran Justice League members Wonder Woman and Cyborg, but now it’s official. The studio’s president of worldwide production, Greg Silverman, also indicated that Man Of Steel director Zack Snyder will be behind the camera when Justice League begins production.

“It will be a further expansion of this universe,” Silverman told The Wall Street Journal. “‘Superman vs Batman’ will lead into ‘Justice League.'”

Neither the Man Of Steel sequel nor the Justice League follow-up have an official title at this point, and the latter project isn’t expected to hit theaters until 2018 at the earliest. Henry Cavill is expected to return as Superman for both films, along with Affleck’s Batman and Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman. Last week, stage actor Ray Fisher was cast in the role of Cyborg, who is expected to make a cameo in the Man Of Steel sequel and return for a larger role in the Justice League movie.

The DC Comics superhero team has featured a long list of characters on its roster over the years, but Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman are widely regarded as the “Trinity” at its core. Along with longtime member Cyborg — a star athlete whose body was augmented with advanced cybernetics after a traumatic accident —  heroes like The Flash, Aquaman, and Green Lantern have spent a significant amount of time with the team.

Sue Kroll, Warner Bros. President of Worldwide Marketing, also indicated that there’s some hope for a Wonder Woman solo movie to spin out of the upcoming slate of films.

“That is our hope,” said Kroll. “With the right script, that could be viable. The world is ready for her.”

How to unlock fast travel in Another Crab’s Treasure
Kril with a coconut shell

Another Crab's Treasure is a fantastical soulslike set deep under the ocean where danger lurks around every corner. And like other games in the genre, it's often brutally difficult to overcome the various challenges you'll encounter. As such, you may find yourself wanting to backtrack for level grinding, to uncover new secrets, or to buy additional items in the game's main hub. However, you may notice early in the game that you haven't yet unlocked the ability to fast travel between the multitude of Moon Snail Shells (aka "bonfires") you've found. Here's how and when you'll unlock fast travel.
How to unlock fast travel
In the opening hours of the game, you may notice that you can access your skill tree, which will show a skill called Shelleportation. But you may be discouraged to see that you aren't able to apply any points to it yet. That's because the game doesn't open up this feature until you've advanced a few hours into the story.

To unlock fast travel, you'll need to work your way through the first few main areas of the game until you reach a boss called the Polluted Platoon Pathfinder. After beating this baddie, you'll soon find yourself teleporting to the Moon Snail's Domain. Here, you'll learn about the power of Umami, as well as unlock access to your skill tree.

Razer - Iskur Gaming Chair.

Sitting down to play video games for hours and hours can be a lot of fun, but it can also be pretty bad for your health. Beyond just the lack of circulation, most modern chairs are not really made to have us sit in them for long periods, and so they don't offer things like lumbar support or breath to help keep us cool. Luckily, gaming chairs have come to the rescue, and if you're looking to at least help keep your body safe and healthy, going for a gaming chair can make a big difference. That said, gaming chairs can be quite expensive, which is why we've gone out and found some of our favorite gaming chair deals for you to pick from.

War never changes. The retrofuturistic apocalypse world of Fallout has graced fans with pretty regular releases since 1997, letting us explore the North American wasteland in the aftermath of a nuclear war in a variety of regions.

It can be a little hard to keep track of the series' timeline if you aren't listening to every holotape in every game and keeping your own log of events. On top of the best Fallout games, we now have to consider where the new Fallout TV show fits in the timeline. We aren't going to get into every timeline detail here (the series' lore is surprisingly deep and detailed) but we will let you know exactly what year every mainline titles takes place in and how you can play them in order.
