1 - Death Stranding: Isolations
The acclaimed creator Hideo Kojima is bringing his eerie post-apocalyptic universe to the small screen with Death Stranding: Isolations, an original hand-drawn 2D anime series streaming exclusively on Disney+ in 2027.
Developed at Japanese studio E&H Production and directed by Takayuki Sano, it follows a young man and woman navigating isolation in a world devastated by the mysterious phenomenon known as the “Death Stranding.” Designed to stand alone within the game world, it offers fresh entry-points for newcomers while remaining faithful to the franchise’s tone of metaphysical dread and human connection.
2- Half‑Life 3 (Rumour Watch)
Despite a cascade of speculation, Valve Corporation has not officially announced Half-Life 3, even as fans read into cryptic hints on the Steam store and the company’s hardware pipeline. Reports that the highly anticipated sequel might launch alongside Valve’s new “Steam Machine” hardware have only increased the frenzy, yet nothing concrete has materialised, keeping the hype alive and the doubt real.
For now, the game remains more myth than reality: fans continue to cling to every subtle hint and leak, while the company remains silent on the record.
3 - The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
The next big screen adventure in the Mario universe is arriving on April 3 2026, with Brie Larson cast as Rosalina, the cosmic protector and beloved character from the 2007 game. Joined by returning stars such as Chris Pratt (Mario) and Jack Black (Bowser), and introducing Benny Safdie as Bowser Jr., the film blends nostalgia with fresh energy for both longtime fans and new audiences.
Larson’s casting is a fan-dream come true-she’s been a lifelong Nintendo superfan, and her enthusiasm adds an extra layer of authenticity to the role..
