ENTERTAINMENT

Entertainment has hit critical mass over the last decade, with more shows and movies being produced and released than ever before. It’s impossible to keep up with everything hitting the digital space, whether it be Premium Video on Demand (PVOD) or a traditional streaming network. With that in mind, we figured it was well past time for us to whip up a little something to help you keep up (and catch up) with all there is to watch in the big, wide world of digital viewing. And thus, the Streaming Rewind was born!

We’ll update this list at the end of each week so you can check out what you may have missed, and what’s coming up on the weekend. We’ll keep it a mix of popular releases and noteworthy lesser-known titles to help you find what’s worth taking the risk on as well as dive into a few things that we loved and why we loved ‘em, or just break down a show or movie that left us with some opinions. Sometimes, we’ll even have guest entries from other members of the IGN staff. If you’re not interested in all that and just want to see a bulleted list of what’s out there, pop on down to the New and Noteworthy and ICYMI sections.

Severance Asks Big Questions (ongoing, Apple TV+)

Apple TV+’s psychological drama/mystery series is pushing towards the middle of its second season, and it’s bringing big themes with it. This week’s Severance, while light on goats, explores questions of autonomy between innies and outies in major ways, but it doesn’t quite reconcile those questions just yet. It’s not out of character, given that Severance has always been more of a slow-burn kind of series, but it’s definitely an episode of television that will leave you screaming at the characters to use their words. We spoke to stars Adam Scott, Britt Lower, Zach Cherry, and Tramell Tillman as well as creator Dan Erickson about Season 2, Episode 4’s big twist, so be sure to check that out once the episode drops on Friday.

Invincible Is Back (February 6, Prime Video)

Invincible is back, this time with a normal gap between seasons and a reasonable release schedule that doesn’t leave fans wondering where the heck the rest of the story is. In Season 3, Mark (Steven Yeun) is going to be forced to reconcile not just with his past, but with his future as well. Definitely not an ominous synopsis for a character who also happens to be desperately trying to balance his life as a hero and a person. The first three episodes of Season 3 drop on February 6, with the remainder of the season coming weekly thereafter. Take a look at our piece on the most important new Invincible characters to expect in Season 3 before you dive into the new season.

It’s the Big Game! (February 9, Fox)

Football isn’t really something we talk about often on IGN dot com (although raise your hand if you remember IGN Sports from back in the day), but plenty of us nerds also happen to be pretty big fans. Shout out to the two cities who are happy with this year’s outcome while the rest of us are forced to watch the exact same Super Bowl we did last year. We’re definitely not bitter*. But, while two cities go to war, the rest of us will at least have good snacks while we root for both teams to lose**. Also, the trailers! Speaking of which, why not check out our breakdowns on the Fantastic Four: First Steps trailer and Jurassic World Rebirth trailer.

*I am a Lions fan, I am very bitter.

**Go birds.

Grand Theft Auto 6 is still set for release in fall 2025, parent company Take-Two has insisted.

Reporting its third quarter ending December 31, 2024 financial results, the Rockstar owner listed GTA 6 for fall 2025 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S. It means that for now at least, GTA 6 is still on track for its previously announced release window and has not been delayed.

Speaking to IGN ahead of the release of its financial report, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick said that while “there’s always a risk of slippage,” the company “feel really good about it [fall 2025].”

“Look, there’s always a risk of slippage and I think as soon as you say words like absolutely, you jinx things,” Zelnick responded when IGN asked how confident he was that Rockstar will hit fall 2025 for GTA 6. “So we feel really good about it.”

When asked for an update on how development on GTA 6 is going, Zelnick kept his cards close to his chest.

“Look, I think the game is eagerly anticipated both internally and externally,” he said. “We know that Rockstar seeks perfection. I never claim success before it occurs. I’m fond of saying arrogance is the enemy of continued success, so we’re all running scared and looking over our shoulders and we know that the competition is not asleep. Our whole organization is super excited.”

The GTA 6 release date is one of the hottest topics in all of entertainment, with rival publishers waiting with bated breath for Rockstar to make its announcement. Earlier this week, EA CEO Andrew Wilson said he was willing to delay the new Battlefield out of the next fiscal year depending on the release timing of its competitors’ games, a thinly veiled nod to the behemoth that is GTA 6.

While its release window remains firm, GTA 6’s much-wanted Trailer 2 has yet to materialize. We’re now over a year since Trailer 1’s release, a gap that has caused plenty of feverish fan speculation. While you wait to find out, IGN has much more on GTA 6 to check out, including an ex-Rockstar dev who says the studio probably won’t be able to decide whether GTA 6 is delayed until May 2025, Zelnick’s coy response on whether GTA 6 is coming to PC, and the expert opinion on whether the PS5 Pro will run GTA 6 at 60 frames per second.

Speaking generally about Rockstar, Take-Two said Grand Theft Auto 5 has now sold-in an incredible 210 million units worldwide. GTA Online had a “strong” quarter, led by the Agents of Sabotage update. GTA+ memberships increased 10% year-over-year in the quarter.

Red Dead Redemption 2, meanwhile, has sold-in more than 70 million copies. Take-Two noted it is currently seeing its highest level of concurrent players on Steam.

Take-Two has a busy 2025, with the just-released Civilization 7 from Firaxis, PGA Tour 2K25 and WWE 2K25 in March, Mafia: The Old Country in the summer, GTA 6 in the fall, and Gearbox’s Borderlands 4 before year-end.

“We are exceedingly optimistic about the commercial potential of our titles and believe that they will have a transformative effect on our business – and our industry – over the long term,” Take-Two said, before adding it remains “highly confident” it will achieve “sequential increases in, and record levels of, net bookings in fiscal 2026 and 2027.”

Four years since its launch in 2021, the Botanical Collection has become one of LEGO’s most successful lines. Targeted at a growing adult audience, the LEGO Botanical Collection features buildable flowers and plants that are, from a distance, indistinguishable from the real ones.

That’s the point of them – to be LEGO sets for adults. Rather than collecting dust, forgotten, on a random shelf, they can hang up on a wall. Or sit on a window sill. Or be placed in a vase as a table centerpiece. This is LEGO as a lifestyle, to be decorative rather than interactive, and they make for great gifts for your loved ones.

Below we’ve laid out allof the details of our 10 favorite LEGO Plants and Flowers sets you can buy right now. Most of the flower LEGO bouquets we’ve featured can be placed in a vase, while the LEGO Plant sets come with a buildable base or pot.

The Shrek movie universe is a fantastical and comedic world filled with fairy tale characters and charmingly quirky inhabitants. It centers around the lovable ogre Shrek, his feisty princess-turned-ogre-wife Fiona, and their loyal friends Donkey and Puss in Boots – a character which has earned his own series of films within this universe. The franchise combines humor, adventure, and heartwarming messages, exploring themes of acceptance, self-discovery, and the power of true love. With its memorable characters, witty dialogue, and clever adaptations of fairy tale tropes, Shrek series is full of animated classics beloved by audiences of all ages.

With Shrek 5 in the early stages of pre-production, there’s no way to tell when it will be released but at least there’s always the classics available to stream online.

Our review for the new RTX 5080 GPU is out, and it turns out that performance is nearly identical to the RTX 4080 Super. To make matters worse, it’s impossible to find one in stock, and prebuilt RTX 5080 systems are currently priced over $2,500. If you’re thinking of upgrading, I’d suggest you consider an RTX 40-series GPU instead. For example, HP has an HP Omen 35L RTX 4080 Super gaming PC for as low as $1,839.99 after you apply a 20% off coupon code “DUO20“. That’s an excellent price for a liquid cooled gaming PC that will handle any game you can throw at it at any resolution.
