The Future of Gaming: Adaptations and Remakes

The world of gaming is abuzz with excitement as new adaptations and remakes are announced left and right. From the surprise release of Ark: The Animated Series on Paramount Plus to the highly anticipated Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, gamers are in for a treat.

Ark: The Animated Series - A Surprise Hit

Paramount Plus has dropped a surprise video game adaptation, Ark: The Animated Series, with an all-star voice cast including Michelle Yeoh, Gerard Butler, and Vin Diesel. The show follows a paleontologist named Helena Walker, voiced by Madeleine Madden, who is resurrected on a strange primeval island full of prehistoric creatures. With six episodes available to stream now and seven more on the way, this animated series is sure to delight fans of the game.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond - The Wait is Almost Over

After seven long years, Nintendo fans finally have a release date for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond - 2025. To get ready for the game’s release, fans can play cheaply or for free by signing up for Nintendo Switch Online, which offers access to three Metroid games, including the original Metroid, Super Metroid, and Metroid 2: Samus Returns. Those who subscribe to the more expensive tier, Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, can also access two Game Boy Advance games, Metroid: Fusion and Metroid: Zero Mission.

Fallout Remakes - A Distant Dream

Fallout fans, on the other hand, may not be getting the remakes they’ve been asking for anytime soon. In a recent interview, Fallout 3, 4, and 5 director Todd Howard stated that while the company has talked about updating the original games, their priorities lie elsewhere. Fans will have to be content with playing the original games, which, although critically acclaimed, can be difficult for new players to get into due to their dated graphics and gameplay.
