Invincible season 4 release schedule: When is episode 8 on Prime Video?
Prime Video’s acclaimed animated superhero series is back for a brand new showdown.
Invincible has enjoyed another characteristically strong run over the past few weeks, and the hit animation is set to wrap up its fourth season with what promises to be a thrilling final episode this week. Things are finely poised as Mark Grayson (Steven Yeun) prepares to face off against fearsome villain Thragg (Lee Pace), with Pace having previously teased of the character in an interview with Polygon that "we're really setting him up to dismantle him in this story: Last week's penultimate instalment of the season – which was titled Don't Do Anything Rash – received especially strong praise from both fans and critics, and so hopes are high that the finale will continue the incredible streak or episodes. The last episode has the somewhat ominous title Don't Leave Me Hanging Here, and it certainly seems like it's going to be an action-packed affair – let's just hope the consequences for our heroes aren't overly severe. If you're excited to see what fresh hell Thragg will bring to the show, read on for details on when to catch Invincible season 4 episode 8 on Prime Video. When will Invincible season 4 episode 8 be released? Invincible season 4 episode 8 has a release date of Wednesday 22 April on Prime Video. The season finale is titled Don't Leave Me Hanging Here – a somewhat ominous hint towards the events it has in store. The first three episodes of the season launched back on 18 March, with the rest of the batch following a weekly episode schedule. How many episodes will there be of Invincible season 4? Like with earlier instalments of Invincible over the years, the fourth season of the Skybound Entertainment and Amazon MGM Studios animated series is sticking to its consistent structure of 8 episodes. Season 4 will run for a total of six weeks, with the eight-episode format the same as the previous three seasons. Invincible season 4 release schedule With Invincible season 4's weekly episodic drops, the full schedule of every episode's release date is as follows: Invincible season 4 episode 1 - Making the World a Better Place - Wednesday 18 March 2026 (out now) Invincible season 4 episode 2 - I’ll Give You the Grand Tour - Wednesday 18 March 2026 (out now) Invincible season 4 episode 3 - I Gotta Get Some Air - Wednesday 18 March 2026 (out now) Invincible season 4 episode 4 - Hurm - Wednesday 25 March 2026 (out now) Invincible season 4 episode 5 - Give Us a Moment - Wednesday 1 April 2026 (out now) Invincible season 4 episode 6 - You Look Horrible - Wednesday 8 April 2026 (out now) Invincible season 4 episode 7 - Don't Do Anything Rash - Wednesday 15 April 2026 (out now) Invincible season 4 episode 8 - Don't Leave Me Hanging Here - Wednesday 22 April 2026 As the third season debuted back in February 2025, the new season is arriving a little over one year after the third instalment, with the animated superhero series significantly speeding up its production. This follows the comments of Invincible creator Robert Kirkman that the team is working incredibly hard to avoid the two-year gap fans experienced between seasons 1 and 2. View Green Video on the source website "I can’t guarantee that we’ll be coming back in early February every single year, but I can say that is the goal," the writer commented in an interview with Discussing Film. "We’re working at a breakneck pace behind the scenes with Shaun O’Neill and Dan Duncan and the entire team to keep this factory moving and keep this show in production so that we can come out in a fairly regular clip."

Coronation Street and Strictly star joins Paul McGann as companion for new Doctor Who adventures
Both already have Doctor Who experience under their belts.
Paul McGann’s latest Doctor Who adventures are coming this year, and Coronation Street and Strictly Come Dancing star Natalie Gumede is leading the new arrivals into the TARDIS. The first episode of The Eighth Doctor Adventures: New Pathways lands in November 2026, launching a fresh six-part audio miniseries for McGann’s Doctor and introducing not one but two new companions for this era. Gumede joins the long-running Big Finish range alongside Vikings: Valhalla actor Sam Stafford, as the pair step into a brand new chapter for the Eighth Doctor. Gumede will be the name many viewers recognise first. The actress is best known for playing Kirsty Soames in Coronation Street, while she also finished as a runner-up on Strictly Come Dancing in 2013. She is also no stranger to the Who-niverse, having previously appeared in the 2014 festive special, Last Christmas. In New Pathways, Gumede plays Chase Moyo, a sharp and adventurous woman whose everyday call centre routine is upended when a phone call connects her to the TARDIS. Stafford, meanwhile, plays Alfie, a gentle giant from a London estate in the mid-21st century who is already travelling with the Doctor when the story begins. Stafford may be a slightly newer face for some viewers, but he has already picked up credits across both screen and audio. Along with playing Ulf in Vikings: Valhalla, Big Finish listeners may also recognise his name from earlier work in the wider Doctor Who franchise (Doctor Who: Time War), and even the Torchwood podcast series, making New Pathways a fitting next step for the actor. Big Finish has also teased a bigger mystery running through the miniseries, revealing that soon after his regeneration, the Doctor receives an unusual call — one that appears to come back around many years later when Chase enters the picture. The six-episode story will unfold across two box sets, with New Pathways 1 due in November 2026 and New Pathways 2 following in December. Producer David Richardson has said both Gumede and Stafford had been on his radar as potential companions for some time, with the pair now set to become the Doctor’s "new best friends" in audio. With a fresh TARDIS dynamic and a longer mystery already being teased, The Eighth Doctor Adventures: New Pathways is shaping up to be a notable new phase for McGann’s Doctor.

Doctor Who and Marvel stars confirmed to lead "provocative" new BBC sci-fi series from Line of Duty producers
Combining near-future sci-fi with Scotland.
The BBC has announced a brand new sci-fi thriller, with Doctor Who and Loki star Gugu Mbatha-Raw set to lead the cast alongside Stuart Martin and Iain De Caestecker. Titled Sutherland, the six-part series is described as an original drama set in both Scotland and Space, and comes from World Productions Scotland (behind hits including Line of Duty and Vigil), with novelist and screenwriter James Smythe attached as writer and creator. The series is being made for BBC iPlayer, BBC One, and BBC Scotland. According to the official synopsis from the BBC, the story is set in the near future in the far north of Scotland, where Mbatha-Raw’s (Tish Jones in Doctor Who & Judge Ravonna Lexus Renslayer / Rebecca Tourminet in Loki) character Mirren works as flight director at Paravel Space Hub for the UK’s first crewed mission to the stars. Just hours after launch, however, a series of unexplained events throws Sutherland into turmoil, threatening everything she has worked towards. Martin will play local detective Logan, who is drawn back into Mirren’s world as a decades-old conspiracy begins to emerge. The pair is then forced to work together, with the mystery ultimately leading them towards a discovery that is said to change their lives forever. De Caestecker (known as Agent Leo Fitz from Agents of SHIELD) is also confirmed for a central role as Callum. Smythe said the drama is, at heart, a “love story” as well as a tale of loss and discovery, while executive producer Jake Lushington described it as a “resonant and provocative story” within the combined setting of space travel and the Scottish Highlands. The BBC has also teased that the series will send its central trio in directions that are both surprising enough to “captivate BBC viewers”. Behind the camera, Chloë Wicks and Patrick Harkins are set to direct, with scripts also written by Laura Grace, Tom Mair and Helen Kingston. The project has been commissioned by Lindsay Salt and Louise Thornton, and is backed by Screen Scotland. Simon Heath, who is also Executive Producer for Line of Duty, is taking on the same role for Sutherland — along with Jake Lushington, and George Aza-Selinger for World Productions Scotland. That’s also with Gaynor Holmes being Executive Producer on the BBC side, Gavin Smith on that of BBC Scotland, and James Scythe, as well. Filming is due to begin in Scotland later this year, with further casting still to be announced. There’s no release date just yet, but for sci-fi fans, this already sounds like one to watch.

One Piece anime release date schedule: When is the next episode out?
There are three certainties in life: death, taxes and One Piece. The anime series just keeps going and going, with well over 1000 episodes under its belt and many more coming down the pipeline, including the current Elbaph arc being adapted for season 22. As a wider franchise, Eiichiro Oda's eccentric creation seems to only be growing in prominence after almost three decades, with a popular live-action series on Netflix and a hit card game among its recent expansions. Although Oda has hinted at plans to end the series in the not-too-distant future, it feels as if One Piece might well go on forever at this point – but whether you're looking for the latest episodes or to delve into the archive, Radio Times can help. Read on for details on when the next episode of One Piece will be released, plus the platforms hosting the long-running anime. (Also, if you're looking to save time, check out our guide to the show's skippable filler episodes.) One Piece release schedule: When is the next episode out?

Crunchyroll is ideal to watch One Piece as soon as it drops, making it easier to avoid spoilers on the latest events, with Netflix getting new episodes one week later (although, as an added bonus, it has the live-action adaptation and its companion podcast). Alternatively, BBC iPlayer has exclusive streaming rights for the English dub of the first 1122 episodes, which some viewers may prefer. (Crunchyroll and Netflix only provide the Japanese version with subtitles.) You can catch One Piece on Crunchyroll and Netflix. Sign up for Netflix from £5.99 a month.

One Piece filler guide: All canon and skippable episodes
Now officially over the 1150 episode mark, One Piece fans old and new definitely need a dedicated filler list to navigate the hit anime adaptation of Eiichiro Oda's legendary manga — especially for its earlier arcs. Before the more manga-faithful modern seasons on Crunchyroll or the beloved live-action adaptation by Netflix, filler episodes (or part-filler) were part of the norm for anime like One Piece, so that the series' coverage of the source material would slow down and give its mangakas (manga artists) time to create more chapters or said show to adapt. Even if you're binging episodes at a time, there's no real way to tell you're about to watch One Piece filler until you're already some minutes in. In order to help reduce the trial and error, and help you get through the canon manga-faithful timeline as fast as possible, here's the complete list breaking down all skippable filler One Piece episodes, mixed canon and filler episodes, and those purely canon. Which One Piece episodes are purely skippable filler? After confirming reports by Crunchyroll and Anime Filler List, the complete list of One Piece episodes that are entirely skippable filler is as follows: Episodes 54-60: Warship Island arc Episodes 98-99: Arabasta arc Episode 102: Arabasta arc Episodes 131-135: Post-Arabasta arc Episodes 136-138: Goat Island arc Episodes 139-143: Ruluka Island arc Episodes 196-206: G-8 arc Episodes 220-225: Ocean’s Dream arc Episodes 279-283: Enies Lobby Arc Episodes 291-292: Enies Lobby Arc Episode 303: Enies Lobby Arc Episodes 317-319: Post-Enies Lobby Arc Episodes 326-336: Ice Hunter arc Episodes 382-384: Spa Island arc Episodes 406-407: Boss Luffy arc Episodes 426-429: Little East Blue arc Episodes 457-458: Marineford arc Episode 492: Post-War arc Episode 542: Fish-Man Island arc Episodes 575-578: Z’s Ambition arc Episode 590: Punk Hazard arc Episodes 626-627: Caesar’s Retrieval arc Episodes 747-750: Silver Mine arc Episodes 780-782: Marine Rookie arc Episodes 895-896: Cidre Guild arc Episode 907: Romance Dawn arc Episodes 1029-1030: Uta arc To clarify, we're referring to 'pure filler' as in content that is entirely original to the anime and was not adapted from the manga whatsoever. These can either be add-ons to currently existing arcs or arcs that are exclusive to the anime altogether. For instance, episodes 131-143; the Post-Arabasta arc, Goat Island arc, and Ruluka Island arc; were stories that were not featured in the manga at all — essentially adding more between the Alabasta and Jaya arcs. Meanwhile, episodes 98-99 were extra inclusions to the Alabasta arc. Of course, you're free to try out watching some of the filler arcs if you wish, but the rule of thumb is that these are somewhat lower quality than the manga-faithful episodes. These One Piece episodes are 100 per cent skippable if you're going for a viewing experience that follows the manga. Which One Piece episodes are mixed canon and filler? In anime like One Piece, mixed canon/filler episodes refer to those with a mix of both content that is still featured in the manga, but shares screen time with filler material as well. As laid out by the hardworking team at Anime Filler List and double-confirmed by Radio Times, the complete list of One Piece episodes that are mixed canon and filler is as follows: Episodes 45-47: Arlong Park & Buggy Side Story arcs Episode 61: Warship Island arc Episodes 68-69: Koby and Helmeppo arc Episode 101: Alabasta arc Episode 226: Foxy’s Return Arc Episode 354: Thriller Bark arc Episode 421: Amazon Lily arc Episode 489: Marineford arc Episode 520: Return to Sabaody arc Episode 574: Fish-Man Island arc Episode 625: Punk Hazard arc Episode 628: Caesar Retrieval arc Episode 633: Dressrosa arc Episode 653: Dressrosa arc Episode 657: Dressrosa arc Episode 679: Dressrosa arc Episode 690: Dressrosa arc Episode 731: Dressrosa arc Episode 738: Dressrosa arc Episode 751: Zou Arc Episodes 777-778: Zou Arc Episode 789: Whole Cake Island arc Episode 803: Whole Cake Island arc Episodes 878-879: Reverie arc Episodes 881-885: Reverie arc Episodes 887-890: Reverie & Land of Wano Arc Act 1 arcs Episode 924: Land of Wano Arc Act 3 arc Episodes 988-989: Land of Wano Arc Act 3 arc Episode 991: Land of Wano Arc Act 3 The general rule around these episodes is that they're technically optional as well, but fit in nicely with the fully canon One Piece episodes, since they flesh out a bit more of the story in their respective arcs. The exceptions might be those like episode 61, the conclusion of the entirely filler Warship Island arc – which might be confusing to those jumping straight in. Nevertheless, episodes like these are still a good bit of fun and are worth the additional tidbits of manga-faithful material.

A continued lack of One Piece filler has been the norm, even more so from now on, too, since Toei Animation announced last year a "major reorganisation of the anime’s production schedule" to approximately 26 annual episodes across two cours (10-14 episodes) per year — instead of producing weekly episodes almost throughout the year. With the idea of improving the series in mind, aiming to "closely reflect the manga’s content, rhythm, and pacing", the need for dedicated One Piece filler episodes will no longer be required. We could theoretically always see some form of filler if any unexpected hiccups in production come about, but it looks like regular One Piece filler in the anime's regular output is unofficially done. Where to watch One Piece in the UK and US All episodes of the One Piece anime are available to watch right now on Crunchyroll, both in the UK and US. UK viewers can also find the One Piece anime on Netflix. If you're in the UK and don't feel like paying for a subscription, One Piece is also available to watch on BBC iPlayer. You also need to have a paid TV license in order to access the BBC iPlayer service. In the US, the One Piece anime is also available to watch via streaming services like Netflix & Hulu, but they are regularly behind Crunchyroll in terms of current episodes.

Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? release schedule: When are new episodes on Crunchyroll?
With the exact times and what the new romcom is all about.
Spring’s anime line-up has another romcom contender on its hands, as Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? has now made its debut on screens, with each episode in its schedule now dropping on specific release dates. Based on the manga by Norishiro-chan and Sakana Uozumi, the series follows shy otaku Takuya Seo, whose quiet school life is disrupted when two very different gals from his class start taking an interest in him. Crunchyroll confirmed ahead of launch that it would stream the anime, which premiered on 8 April 2026. That gives fans a new weekly romance comedy to keep an eye on, bringing the manga’s mix of awkward school comedy, shared geek interests, and the usual gal-and-loner misunderstandings to life. From episode 1, 2, and beyond, here’s the current Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? release schedule and when you can watch new episodes on Crunchyroll. Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? release schedule: When are new episodes on Crunchyroll? Each new episode of Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? has a weekly Wednesday release date in its schedule, with the anime’s official site confirming the rollout in Japan. With that, all episodes of Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? are scheduled to release on the following dates: Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 1 – 8 April 2026 Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 2 – 15 April 2026 Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 3 – 22 April 2026 Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 4 – 29 April 2026 Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 5 – 6 May 2026 Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 6 – 13 May 2026 Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 7 – 20 May 2026 Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 8 – 27 May 2026 Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 9 – 3 June 2026 Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 10 – 10 June 2026 Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 11 – 17 June 2026 Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? episode 12 – 24 June 2026 On the Crunchyroll simulcast calendar, there is currently no interruption to the weekly Wednesday slot that has been announced on the official anime website. However, future dates are still subject to change if any break is announced, but we’ll update this watch guide right away if we hear any new information. What time are new episodes of Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? released on Crunchyroll? According to Crunchyroll’s simulcast calendar, new episodes of Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? are released at 4:45pm in the UK, which means each one will drop at the following times around the world: 8:45am PDT 11:45am EDT 4:45pm BST 5:45pm CEST 9:15pm IST 12:45am JST (Thursday) 1:45am AEST (Thursday) As ever with seasonal anime, simulcast timings can shift slightly, so we’ll be keeping this release schedule updated with any adjustments, as well. What’s the plot of Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? View oEmbed on the source website Just like the manga, the anime adaptation of Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? centres on Takuya Seo, a reserved high school boy who tries not to draw attention to the fact that he’s an otaku. That becomes much harder when classmates Kei Amane and Kotoko Ijichi start talking to him, pulling him into an unexpected school-life romcom built around shared hobbies and clashing social circles. Compared to the male protagonist, Amane is cool but a little odd, while Ijichi is much more cheerful and physically close in the way she interacts with Seo. Together, the trio’s relationship develops through anime fandom and overlapping interests, which is where the show seems likely to find most of its comedy and charm. Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? is streaming on Crunchyroll now. Check out more of our Fantasy coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to find out what’s on.

How to get Squishy Clay in Pokémon Pokopia explained
Clay is one of the more confusing materials in Pokémon Pokopia, because the game is effectively talking about two versions of the same resource that’s used to make bricks. There is standard Clay in block form, which you find in the Pokémon spin-offs’ world, and there is Squishy Clay, which is what you usually receive when those blocks are broken apart. For most building jobs and early requests, Squishy Clay is the material you actually need. Although you can get some batches of clay near Pokopia’s first main area, there are a couple of spots later in the farm that are far better for farming. Here is exactly how to find Squishy Clay and use it to make bricks in Pokémon Pokopia. How to get Clay in Pokémon Pokopia You can first get Squishy Clay in Pokémon Pokopia by heading back to the cave where you meet Onix after the rain starts in the Withered Wasteland, along with finding it in more quantities inside the Bleak Bleach biome. In Onix’s cave, you will find Clay blocks that can be broken with Rock Smash, which then gives you Squishy Clay. This is a distinction that can be easy to misread in Pokopia; In block form, this is standard Clay, but it becomes Squishy Claw when broken down and added to your inventory. After that, Bleak Beach (which you can also unlock once your Trainer level becomes ‘Great’ after meeting Kyogre) is the best standard place to farm Squishy Clay, as there are far more Clay blocks around the area. On the other hand, you can get even more Squishy Clay in Pokémon Pokopia when you access Ocean Dream Island; to do this, though, you need the Pikachu Poke Doll, which is a random loot drop in Bleak Bleach. View Green Video on the source website How to turn Clay into Brick in Pokémon Pokopia Once you have Squishy Clay, give it to a Pokémon with the Burn specialty, and it will be turned into Brick; you just need to talk to a Pokémon like Charmander, have them look at the Squishy Clay, select the “make me some bricks” option, and select how many units you want. Each piece of Squishy Clay gives you two Bricks, which makes getting enough for recipes like the Stone Fireplace, Brick Steps, and Brick Wall all the easier once you’ve got a good farming route set up.

Pokémon Winds and Waves: Release date speculation, pre-orders, platforms, trailers & more
We have an estimate for its specific release window, too.
Pokémon Day 2026 finally gave us our first proper look at Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves, with The Pokémon Company confirming that the new pair of RPGs will launch on Nintendo Switch 2 in 2027; although there isn’t a specific release date yet, both games are planned for a simultaneous worldwide release, so fans should all be setting out at roughly the same time. There is still plenty being kept under wraps, however. Nintendo has shown off the broad setting, the main characters, the three partner starter Pokémon, and a pair of unusual Pikachu variants, but there is no full story synopsis just yet, nor do we have a specific date or price to work with. Still, there is more than enough to start piecing things together. From the release window and likely pre-order situation to platforms, gameplay details, and the trailer itself, here is everything we know so far about Pokémon Winds and Waves. When is the Pokémon Winds and Waves release date? Our speculation There is no specific release date yet for Pokémon Winds and Waves outside of its current 2027 release date window, which was confirmed during its announcement trailer on Pokémon Day 2026. However, we predict the seasonal release window for both games will be in late 2027 — either October or November — as that’s the usual window for the franchise’s other recent games over the years, including Scarlet & Violet and Pokémon Legends: Z-A. That is, until we start seeing deeper gameplay showcases and retailer pages revealing otherwise anyway; either way, we will be updating this guide as soon as we hear more. Can I pre-order Pokémon Winds and Waves? Although Nintendo has both Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves available to wishlist, neither game is available to pre-order at any retailers; this is because pre-orders usually don’t go live until the game is at most a year away from launch. So, if Pokemon Winds & Waves are coming out in late 2027 as predicted, we’ll likely start seeing pre-orders go live either in late 2026 or early 2027; then, you’ll be able to pre-purchase the games at the usual storefronts like Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, and Target in the US — alongside the UK retailers like Amazon, Currys, GAME, Argos, Smyths, and ShopTo. When that happens, we’ll be adding all of the direct links here, so that you’ve got a convenient hub to compare the best prices and pre-order bonuses. Which consoles and platforms can play Pokémon Winds and Waves? Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves are officially confirmed for Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch 2 alone. The games are launching exclusively on Nintendo’s current hardware, with no sign of a confirmed release for the original 2017 Nintendo Switch. With all of the controversy past modern Pokémon games in the Nintendo Switch ecosystem have received for being graphically and technologically compromised, it seems like Pokémon developer Game Freak has finally been able to develop a new mainline entry made solely for the Nintendo Switch 2 system — with no compromises by needing to work on the original system, too. Be that as it may, things could always change between now and the games’ release, but we’ll keep an eye on any new updates. View Green Video on the source website Pokémon Winds and Waves gameplay and story details Nintendo has yet to go into full deep-dive mode on gameplay, but the official overview paints a fairly clear picture of the kind of adventure we are in for; Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves are another pair of open-world games set across a region of islands and surrounding sea, with local Pokémon living in distinctive ecosystems shaped by that environment. The publisher also hints that the journey will involve pushing through natural hazards and difficult routes, which suggests the setting itself could play a bigger role in the adventure than usual. Like with Scarlet & Violet, we also know that your player character’s outfit changes depending on which version you pick, giving the two releases a bit of their own visual identity straight away. As for your starter, the three base partner Pokémon are Browt (Grass), Pombon (Fire), and Gecqua (Water). Nintendo has also teased two special Pikachu, Mr Windychu and Ms Wavychu, though what part they play in the story remains a mystery for now. In short, there is enough here to start getting excited, but the finer plot details are still being kept close to the chest View Riddle on the source website Is there a Pokémon Winds and Waves trailer? View oEmbed on the source website Yes, Pokemon Winds and Waves has its official announcement trailer, which was revealed as part of the 27 February 2026 Pokémon Presents broadcast. At this stage, it is very much a scene-setter rather than a blow-by-blow systems explainer, but it does give us our first proper feel for the world, tone, and look of both versions. From that trailer and Pokémon Winds and Waves’ official website, we get a look at the island setting, the sea-heavy overworld, the two playable looks, the first three partner Pokémon, and the special Pikachu pair. What we have not had yet is the kind of longer gameplay breakdown that really gets into battles, progression, and any potential new mechanics. That will likely come further down the line, but for now, the announcement trailer is the main one to watch.

Pokémon Champions: Release date, times, platforms, full Pokémon list & trailers
The latest on the mobile versions & all the Pokémon you can recruit.
After being announced all the way back in early 2025, the release date for Pokémon Champions is nearly here — coming to a couple of specific platforms at certain times, depending on your timezone. What's more, along with Pocket Monsters you can use from other games via Pokémon Home, Pokémon Champions has a full list of Pokémon you can access in the game to use as well. Along with what Pokémon are natively available, what the game is coming, and when it will be arriving on other platforms, here is everything we know about Pokémon Champions so far. When is the Pokémon Champions release date? The release date for Pokémon Champions is Wednesday 8 April 2026, on Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch consoles, as confirmed during the March Pokémon Present. As well as this, Nintendo confirmed that on release day, players will be able to get their hands on a Starter Pack bundle that includes extra benefits like more Pokémon storage space, an extra battle song and more. Both an Android and iOS mobile release is also in development, but will launch at a later date. What times does Pokémon Champions come out? Fan Pokemon website Serebii has shared on X (formerly Twitter), that the Pokemon Company has confirmed Pokemon Champions will release at around 3am UTC on 8 April. This means will release at the following times in various timezones: 8pm PDT (April 7) 4AM BST (April 8) 11PM EDT (April 7) 4am CET (April 8) 12pm JST (Aprl 8) 12am BRT (April 8) 1pm AET (April 8) What is Pokémon Champions? Pokémon Champions is a free-to-start, turn-based strategy spin-off built to focus entirely on Pokémon battles rather than a dedicated open-world RPG. Developed by The Pokémon Works in collaboration with Game Freak, it centres on online competition, with Ranked, Casual, and Private Battles available in both Single and Double formats. Players can put together teams by recruiting Pokémon in-game or by bringing certain partners over through Pokémon Home (from Scarlet & Violet, Legends: Z-A, FireRed & LeafGreen, etc), while cross-platform play is planned across Nintendo Switch and mobile. Along with supporting major power-up mechanics from mainline games via the player's Omni Ring — Mega Evolution, Z-moves, Gigantamax, Dynamax, and Terastallization — Champions is replacing the use of the latest mainline Pokémon games at official Play! Pokemon VGC events, like the Pokemon World Championships; with that, players can consistently take part in the competitive scene without having to start over every few years with the newest title, as Champions can simply update its meta with the latest mechanics as the meta evolves with new games. Which consoles and platforms can play Pokémon Champions? After launching on both Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch consoles on 8 April, Pokémon Champions will also be released on iOS and Android mobile devices later this year. Does Pokémon Champions have an iOS & Android mobile release date? The mobile phone versions of Pokémon Champions on iOS and Android have not been given a specific release date yet, but the ports are definitely coming out later in 2026; we expect to be given a specific date after the Nintendo Switch consoles' launch. This can usually be the case with multi-platform games, as developers sometimes want to hold off on giving specifics about additional ports in case the first needs some quick post-launch updates. Nevertheless, we will be updating this guide as soon as we know more. Full list of available Pokémon in Champions Confirmed by Serebii, Pokémon Champions has 162 Pokémon that are available to rent in the game by recruiting for free and spending Victory Points — instead of using those you have through Pokémon Home; the full list of Pokémon available to rent in Champions is as follows: Venusaur — Grass/Poison type Charizard — Fire/Flying type Blastoise — Water type Beedrill — Bug/Poison type Pikachu — Electric type Raichu — Electric type Raichu (Alolan) — Electric/Psychic type Clefable — Fairy type Ninetales — Fire type Ninetales (Alolan) — Ice/Fairy type Arcanine — Fire type Arcanine (Hisuian) — Fire/Rock type Alakazam — Psychic type Victreebel — Grass/Poison type Slowbro — Water/Psychic type Slowbro (Galarian) — Poison/Psychic type Gengar — Ghost/Poison type Kangaskhan — Normal type Starmie — Water/Psychic type Pinsir — Bug type Tauros — Normal type Gyarados — Water/Flying type Ditto — Normal type Vaporeon — Water type Jolteon — Electric type Flareon — Fire type Aerodactyl — Rock/Flying type Snorlax — Normal type Dragonite — Dragon/Flying type Meganium — Grass type Typhlosion — Fire type Typhlosion (Hisuian) — Fire/Ghost type Feraligatr — Water type Ampharos — Electric type Azumarill — Water/Fairy type Politoed — Water type Espeon — Psychic type Umbreon — Dark type Slowking — Water/Psychic type Steelix — Steel/Ground type Scizor — Bug/Steel type Heracross — Bug/Fighting type Skarmory — Steel/Flying type Houndoom — Dark/Fire type Tyranitar — Rock/Dark type Pelipper — Water/Flying type Gardevoir — Psychic/Fairy type Sableye — Dark/Ghost type Aggron — Steel/Rock type Torkoal — Fire type Altaria — Dragon/Flying type Milotic — Water type Castform — Normal type Absol — Dark type Metagross — Steel/Psychic type Torterra — Grass/Ground type Infernape — Fire/Fighting type Empoleon — Water/Steel type Lopunny — Normal type Spiritomb — Ghost/Dark type Garchomp — Dragon/Ground type Lucario — Fighting/Steel type Hippowdon — Ground type Abomasnow — Grass/Ice type Weavile — Dark/Ice type Rhyperior — Ground/Rock type Leafeon — Grass type Glaceon — Ice type Gliscor — Ground/Flying type Mamoswine — Ice/Ground type Gallade — Psychic/Fighting type Froslass — Ice/Ghost type Rotom — Electric/Ghost type Serperior — Grass type Emboar — Fire/Fighting type Samurott — Water type Samurott (Hisuian) — Water/Dark type Excadrill — Ground/Steel type Audino — Normal type Conkeldurr — Fighting type Whimsicott — Grass/Fairy type Krookodile — Ground/Dark type Garbodor — Poison type Zoroark — Dark type Zoroark (Hisuian) — Normal/Ghost type Vanilluxe — Ice type Emolga — Electric/Flying type Chandelure — Ghost/Fire type Stunfisk (Galarian) — Ground/Steel type Golurk — Ground/Ghost type Hydreigon — Dark/Dragon type Volcarona — Bug/Fire type Chesnaught — Grass/Fighting type Delphox — Fire/Psychic type Greninja — Water/Dark type Diggersby — Normal/Ground type Talonflame — Fire/Flying type Vivillon — Bug/Flying type Floette — Fairy type Furfrou — Normal type Meowstic — Psychic type Aegislash — Steel/Ghost type Clawitzer — Water type Tyrantrum — Rock/Dragon type Aurorus — Rock/Ice type Sylveon — Fairy type Hawlucha — Fighting/Flying type Goodra — Dragon type Klefki — Steel/Fairy type Trevenant — Ghost/Grass type Gourgeist — Ghost/Grass type Noivern — Flying/Dragon type Decidueye — Grass/Ghost type Decidueye (Hisuian) — Grass/Fighting type Incineroar — Fire/Dark type Primarina — Water/Fairy type Toucannon — Normal/Flying type Crabominable — Fighting/Ice type Lycanroc — Rock type Toxapex — Poison/Water type Mudsdale — Ground type Araquanid — Water/Bug type Tsareena — Grass type Oranguru — Normal/Psychic type Mimikyu — Ghost/Fairy type Drampa — Normal/Dragon type Kommo-o — Dragon/Fighting type Corviknight — Flying/Steel type Appletun — Grass/Dragon type Sandaconda — Ground type Polteageist — Ghost type Hatterene — Psychic/Fairy type Grimmsnarl — Dark/Fairy type Mr. Rime — Ice/Psychic type Runerigus — Ground/Ghost type Alcremie — Fairy type Morpeko — Electric/Dark type Dragapult — Dragon/Ghost type Kleavor — Bug/Rock type Ursaluna — Ground/Normal type Basculegion — Water/Ghost type Sneasler — Fighting/Poison type Meowscarada — Grass/Dark type Skeledirge — Fire/Ghost type Quaquaval — Water/Fighting type Pawmot — Electric/Fighting type Maushold — Normal type Garganacl — Rock type Armarouge — Fire/Psychic type Ceruledge — Fire/Ghost type Scovillain — Grass/Fire type Tinkaton — Fairy/Steel type Palafin — Water type Orthworm — Steel type Glimmora — Rock/Poison type Dondozo — Water type Tatsugiri — Dragon/Water type Farigiraf — Normal/Psychic type Kingambit — Dark/Steel type Sinistcha — Grass/Ghost type Archaludon — Steel/Dragon type Hydrapple — Grass/Dragon type View Riddle on the source website Is there a trailer for Pokémon Champions? Several Pokémon Champions trailers have dropped since the game's announcement in early 2025; starting with the reveal trailer on Pokémon Day that year. Late 2025 overview After a few months of silence, the Pokémon Company dropped a two-minute gameplay reveal showing snippets of battles and the game's Pokémon recruitment feature. Pokémon Day 2026 trailer To add to the Pokémon Day celebrations in 2026, Champions has given an exciting new minute-and-a-half trailer — hinting at how the new battle-focused spin-off will take the lead on the video game series' competitive battling scene. View oEmbed on the source website Overview trailer View oEmbed on the source website Ahead of the game's release date, the overview trailer gave us the biggest look at Pokemon Champions' gameplay yet; not only does this trailer give us a proper deep dive into how the Pokemon recruitment mechanic works, but also how battles and currencies work, new abilities for Legends: Z-A starter's Mega Evolutions (Feraligatr, Meganium, and Emboar), and even breakdowns on how to easily optimise Pokemon with natures and EVs. World overview trailer View oEmbed on the source website The last trailer we've seen before the Pokémon Champions' release date, this new overview was essentially a new cutscene showing off the game's world of the Battle Arena in the city of Frontier, along with revealing two of its characters as they start a Pokémon battle: Carawat (owner of the Battle Arena) and Kajima (Mayor of Frontier).

How to beat Giovanni in Pokémon Go: April 2026 counters
Giovanni's Thundurus is an electrifying Legendary to counter in Pokémon Go.
Giovanni has returned to Pokémon Go with another powerful team to defeat in April 2026 — including an especially strong fifth-gen Legendary you'll need to know the weaknesses of in order to counter it properly. Just like when trying to hunt down and defeat the big boss of Team Rocket in the past, you can only find Giovanni in Go by defeating Rocket Grunts and the organisation's other leaders beneath him (Sierra, Cliff, and Arlo) to put together a Super Rocket Radar to locate and battle him. However, just like in previous months, Giovanni has quite a tough team that requires some planning to beat. Thankfully, this quick and easy guide will fill you in on all the weaknesses of Giovanni's line-up and the best Pokémon you can use to counter them in April. How to beat Giovanni in Pokémon Go: April 2026 counters To defeat Giovanni's current Pokémon Go team of Shadow Pokémon in April 2026, it's best to use counters of the following types: Bring a Fighting-type to counter Persian Bring an Ice-type to counter Rhyperior, a Psychic/Fairy/Flying-type for Machamp — or a Fighting-type to counter Kangaskhan and Rhyperior Bring an Electric-, Ice-, or Rock-type to counter Tornadus Below is the full breakdown Pokémon you can expect to see in each round and their types. This time, only round two has an element of mystery to it. First round: Persian (Normal-type) Weakness: Counter with Fighting-type attacks Second round: Kangaskhan (Normal-type) Weakness: Counter with Fighting-type attacks Rhyperior (Ground- and Rock-type) Weakness: Counter with Grass-, Water-, Fighting-, Ground-, Steel-, and Ice-type attacks Machamp (Fighting-type) Weakness: Counter with Flying-, Fairy-, Psychic-type attacks Third round: Shadow Thundurus (Flying- and Electric-type) Weakness: Counter with Rock-, Ice-type attacks It’s worth noting that if Giovanni defeats you once, you can demand a rematch at the same location. So, if he ends up using a second Pokémon you weren't prepared for (like facing Shadow Kangaskhan without a Fighting-type), you can even leave the battle, switch out party members, and re-enter as long as you stay in the same location. Best Persian counters in Pokémon Go Shadow Persian is always the first Pokémon that Giovanni throws into battle in his Pokémon Go boss fight. Being a Normal-type Pokémon, Shadow Persian's only weakness is against Fighting-type attacks. Any Fighting-type move that you dish out will cause 160 per cent extra damage. With this in mind, counters like Lucario, Machamp, or Conkeldurr are excellent counters for Giovanni's Persian that are easy to get in the game — with moves like Force Palm, Counter, and Dynamic Punch being effective attacks in their movesets. As a backup, you can use non-Fighting-type Pokémon that still have Fighting-type moves as an alternative; however, it's always best to use a Pokémon that is the same type as the intended move, as you'll get a 1.2x STAB (same-type damage bonus). Other move types can still be used for standard neutral damage, but one thing you will not want to use is a Ghost-type Pokémon. Persian has a resistance to these ghoulish creatures, with their attacks doing 39 per cent less damage to Persian. So, don't use any of those. Best Kangaskhan counters in Pokémon Go Luckily, Kangaskhan is a Normal-type, just like Persian; with that, you probably won't need to change very much, since you can double-up on your Fighting-types or be lucky enough to sweep both Pokémon in a row. Just like before, counters like Machamp, Lucario, and Conkeldurr are some of the best easy options. That said, in April, it might be worth bringing at least two on a first attempt when facing Giovanni, due to the added bulk of some of the Team Rocket boss's other team members. Best Rhyperior counters in Pokémon Go Giovanni's Rhyperior has very strong stats, but its Rock and Ground-type gives it a ton of weaknesses with six in total: Water, Fighting, Grass, Ground, Steel, and Ice. To make the most of these weaknesses, using counters like the Water-type Kingler will deal the most damage, with Bubble as its Fast Attack and Crabhammer as its Charged Attack, since it's also not vulnerable to any of Rhyperior's attacks. Kartana is also a strong choice as a Grass and Steel-type, but you'd need to be wary of Rhyperior using Superpower and a couple of Ground-type attacks in its potential move-set since Kartana is weak to Fighting-type moves. In this case, pure Grass-types like Roserade and Rillaboom are excellent back-ups to quickly beat Shadow Rhyperior if you use Razor Leaf and Gross Knot for both Pokémon's Fast Moves and Charged moves, respectively. Again, your Machamp, Conkeldurr, and Lucario from Persian will both work wonders here. Out of those three, though, it's best to avoid using Lucario if you can help it, as its part-Steel typing will also make it weak to Rhyperior's potential Ground- and Fighting-type moves. Best Machamp counters in Pokémon Go Already a strong attacker in its base form, Giovanni's Shadow Machamp is even deadlier — making you need to target its Fighting type with Psychic-, Fairy, or Flying-type moves all the more essential, as all equally inflict the same 160 per cent super-effective damage. For instance, the Legendary Mewtwo is one of the best counters against Giovanni's Machamp you can use — with Confusion and Psystrike as ideal moves to inflict that super-effective damage fast as its Fast Attacks, along with Psystrike or Psychic as a Charged Attack, for a massive DPS. Still, because Psychic, Fairy, and Flying moves deal the same amount of damage overall, any of the same type that can use those moves will do. Another great example is Tapu Lele, a Psychic-Fairy hybrid that can have Confusion and Nature's Madness, which is a great combination moveset. There are also Flying-types like Toucannon, which can have an especially serious damage output when mixing moves like Peck and Beak Blast. For other non-Legendaries, the Psychic-type Espeon or the Fairy-type Clefable are solid contenders, as well. Best Incarnate Shadow Thundurus counters in Pokémon Go As the latest Legendary to be added to Giovanni's Pokémon Go arsenal for April 2026, Incarnate Shadow Thundurus' Electric and Flying dual typing gives it two weaknesses to target: Rock- and Ice-type moves, all for 160 per cent super-effective damage. That isn't as many weaknesses as Giovanni's Tornadus in the past, but there are still plenty of counters to work with — like Galarian Darmanitan: a powerful Ice-type attacker that works best for Ice Fang as its Fast Attack and Avalanche for its Charged. If you don't have one of those to hand, alternatives like Baxcalibur, Mamoswine, and Abomasnow work as well. On the Rock-type side of things, a fantastic counter for Thundurus in Pokémon Go is Rampardos — who can use both Smack Down and Rock Slide in its moveset, whilst being 63% resistant to any Flying-type attacks Thundurus might use. There are plenty of other powerful Rock-types in the game to choose from as well, including Tyranitar, Rhyperior, Aerodactyl, and Gigalith. If you challenge Giovanni multiple times, make sure to heal your best Pokémon between attempts and target each of his team members with the right counters, and you'll soon be able to beat him.

Why is Tech Jacket gender-swapped in Invincible season 4 and who voices her?
The showrunners explained in a recent interview.
After being teased in the show a couple of times over the years, Tech Jacket finally made their debut in the Invincible series via episode 5 of season 4, and the character’s surprising gender-swap has taken place for one big reason, revealed right before Mark and co head into the Viltrumite War. Originally Zack Thompson in the comics, Tech Jacket in the TV adaptation of Invincible is now Zoe Thompson, and it turns out her voice actor is one you’ll likely have heard before. After getting into why Tech Jacket was gender-swapped, we’ll dive right into who the new female Tech Jacket’s voice actor is and how she compares to her male comic counterpart, wielding the Gelderian armour. Why was Tech Jacket gender-swapped in Invincible season 4? Stepping away from the male Zack, Tech Jacket was gender-swapped to the female Zoe Thompson for Invincible season 4 because the show’s bosses thought it would be an "interesting" change and would bring more to the show as a result of the character now being a teenage girl — putting in some added contrast by being more unique amongst the team of heroes. Speaking to Den of Geek, Invincible creator and co-showrunner Robert Kirkman said that when it came time to bring the Tech Jacket into the show, he realised that a comics-accurate version would be “very similar to Mark”. From there, the creative team decided early on that it would be interesting to gender-swap the character and rethink who this version of Tech Jacket should be as Zoe, rather than Zack. Kirkman also suggested that changing the character opened up “exciting things” in the story and praised the energy the new version brings. In other words, this was not a change made for shock value or as a one-line twist in episode 5; it was a deliberate creative decision made as part of adapting the character for television. Who voices Tech Jacket in Invincible? With season 4 episode 5 as her first appearance in Invincible, Tech Jacket. – now Zoe Thompson – is voiced by Zoey Deutch — who is known for playing Harper Moore in Set It Up, Infinity Jackson in The Politician, Juliet Martin in Ringer, and Maya Bennett in The Suite Life on Deck. The actor is best known for projects including Harper Moore in Netflix romcom Set It Up, Infinity Jackson in political comedy-drama The Politician, and earlier TV roles such as Juliet Martin in Ringer and Maya Bennett in The Suite Life on Deck. Joining Kirkman’s comments about the benefits of gender-swapping Tech Jacket’s character from male to female, fellow co-showrunner Simon Racioppa was equally enthusiastic about the reimagining, saying Deutch’s performance especially brought humour, professionalism, and a strong grasp of the character. Who is Tech Jacket in the Invincible comics? For viewers who have not dipped into Kirkman’s wider comic universe, Tech Jacket is one of the more significant heroes orbiting the Invincible mythos. In the comics, Tech Jacket is Zack Thompson, a high-school student who comes into possession of advanced alien armour after encountering a dying member of the Geldarian race. The suit bonds to him permanently and turns him into an extraordinarily powerful hero. As an Earth-based newcomer to the Coalition’s side, he’s essentially a teen wielding a battle suit that makes him a mix of Iron Man, Green Lantern, and Blue Beetle. Does the gender swap change Tech Jacket’s story? Outside of surface-level line changes and a few specific jokes, no major changes to Tech Jacket’s story will likely come up in light of Invincible season 4’s gender swap. As far as first impressions from her first appearances go, Zoe is set to fulfil the exact same narrative Zack did in the comics: joining the fight against the Viltrumite Empire and becoming part of the wider ensemble of heroes gathered by Allen and Omni-Man. On the other hand, the very subtle bit of flirting we’ve seen between Zoe and Oliver so far could lead to a romantic dynamic as time goes on, but there’s nothing hinting that she won’t carry out all the major story points her original male counterpart from the comics had — while still being more unique to Mark and the rest of the team, this time around. Invincible season 4 is streaming now on Amazon Prime. Check out more of our Sci-fi coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to find out what's on.

Fate/strange Fake season 2 release date speculation, latest news
And why studio A-1 pictures could take a while.
Fate/strange Fake season 2 is already on fans’ minds after the finale of season 1, which saw the Fate series adapt the Holy Grail War. With Masters and Servants colliding in Snowfield, Nevada, and the scale of the conflict only getting bigger with each new development (and more source material to cover), the series has made a strong case for a longer future on screen. Thankfully, season 2 has already been confirmed, with a new teaser being released after season 1's finale. Here's everything we know so far. When could Fate/strange Fake season 2 be released? For now, any Fate/strange Fake 2 release date is purely speculative, but with no official announcement yet, the very earliest we could see a new batch of episodes is 2027 – but that’s only if it were to launch late in that year. That said, we predict we won’t see Fate/strange Fake season 2 until at least 2028, due to the already stacked anime output studio A-1 Pictures has for 2027 and beyond: the anime adaptation of Bless, season 3 of Mashle: Magic and Muscles, and season 2 of Too Many Losing Heroines! for a TBA window. View oEmbed on the source website It was confirmed that the show will continue in March 2026, with the anime's official social media sharing a teaser image and a caption reading: "Something big is coming..." What could the plot of Fate/strange Fake season 2 be about? View oEmbed on the source website It would likely move the anime beyond its current dream-realm storyline and into the more explosive later novels, where the battle for Snowfield becomes far more intense. Without getting into major spoilers, that would mean bigger faction clashes, more focus on the war’s hidden masterminds, and long-teased characters finally stepping into more pivotal roles. The Fate/strange Fake anime is available to watch on Crunchyroll. Check out more of our Fantasy coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to find out what's on.

Will there be Sentenced to Be a Hero season 2?
Including the earliest possible release window.
The first run of the Sentenced to Be a Hero anime has now reached the end of its opening chapter, with episode 12 closing out its season 1 run – leaving fans to immediately wonder if a season 2 is on the cards. After its 60-minute premiere special on 3 January 2026, the series settled into a weekly Thursday schedule from episode 2 onwards, bringing its first season to a close on 26 March. With both the manga and original light novel still going, it’s natural to ask whether there’ll be more of Xylo Forbartz and Teoritta’s brutal dark fantasy world to come. Here is everything we know so far about the potential for a Sentenced to Be a Hero season 2. Will there be Sentenced to Be a Hero season 2? At the time of writing, Sentenced to Be a Hero season 2 has not been officially announced. The anime’s official website and news archive do not currently list a second season renewal, so any talk of a follow-up remains speculation for now. Still, that doesn’t necessarily mean the story is over. As many fans of the franchise will know, Rocket Shokai’s original light novel series is already up to volume 8, which means there is source material available for the anime to continue adapting if the production committee decides to move ahead. When could Sentenced to Be a Hero season 2 be released? If the series does return, fans probably shouldn’t expect Sentenced to Be a Hero season 2 too quickly, with a potential season 2 arriving in 2027 at the very earliest. The anime was originally due to launch in October 2025 before being pushed back to January 2026 in order to improve the overall quality of the production, as previously confirmed by Crunchyroll. That earlier delay suggests the team is willing to take its time with the series, so a 2027 release feels like the absolute earliest a second season might arrive. That is still only an educated guess, rather than an announced release window. What could Sentenced to Be a Hero season 2 be about? View oEmbed on the source website Without venturing into spoiler territory after Sentenced to Be a Hero episode 12, a second season would most likely continue Xylo’s grim campaign through a world where becoming a “hero” is less an honour than a punishment. The official story synopsis makes clear that the wider tale still has war, conspiracy, and revenge at its core, so there is plenty left for the adaptation to explore. Without venturing too far into spoiler territory after Sentenced to Be a Hero episode 12, a second season would likely expand the story well beyond the unit’s initial fight for survival. The light novels (their descriptions available through Yen Press, its English publisher) suggest that Xylo and Penal Hero Unit 9004 could soon be drawn into a wider conflict involving hidden enemies, political intrigue and new figures whose loyalties may not be easy to trust. That means Sentenced to Be a Hero season 2 could lean further into war drama as well as dark fantasy, with even more pressure on Xylo and Teoritta as the scale of the threat continues to grow. The Sentenced to Be a Hero anime is available to watch on Crunchyroll. Check out more of our Fantasy coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to find out what's on.

Invincible season 4's William recast explained: Who voices him now?
Along with why the change was likely necessary.
Episode 4 of Invincible season 4 may have treated fans to a new, unique story compared to the comics, but it’s the noticeable recast of William Clockwell to a new voice actor that will have people talking most by the end. Titled Hurm, episode 4 lived up to being the “completely original” story from the source material that Invincible creator Robert Kirkman previously teased to Radio Times in a recent interview — bringing back demon detective Damien Darkblood and having Mark help Satan take back ruling dominion of Hell. However, it wasn’t until the episode’s 46-minute mark in the final scenes that takes fans’ ears by surprise, with the voice of William sounding completely different — with a lighter and less endearingly whiny voice compared to the performance of Andrew Rannells, who voiced the character from seasons 1 to 3. For those who also weren’t able to fully focus on Eve’s pregnancy news reveal to William while noticing the difference, here is everything to know about the character’s new voice actor and why the old one potentially needed to be replaced. Invincible season 4's William recast explained: Who voices him now? From season 4 onwards, William is voiced by Brandon Scott Jones, with the change becoming immediately apparent in episode 4 as the character reacts to the news of Eve’s unplanned pregnancy. Jones will already be familiar to plenty of viewers thanks to roles in series including the colourful personalities of Captain Isaac Higgintoot in the US remake of UK sitcom Ghosts and John Wheaton in The Good Place — making him a natural fit for a character like William, even if the shift has taken fans by surprise. What happened with William Clockwell's recasting in Invincible season 4? For now, there has been no official explanation has been given by Prime Video, co-showrunners Robert Kirkman and Simon Racioppa, or Andrew Rannells himself as to why William was recast in Invincible for season 4. However, Radio Times recently asked Kirkman about Aaron Paul not returning as Powerplex in season 4, and his answer may offer a clue. Kirkman explained that animation can make it difficult to bring busy actors back for only “a scene or two”, adding that scheduling often becomes the deciding factor when a character has only a brief role to play. That logic would make sense for William, too. A Comics Beat review of Invincible season 4 noted that William is in “literally one scene this season”. This makes the idea of a practical recast even easier to understand when considering how busy Rannells has been lately. Along with TV and film roles in Another Simple Favor, Night Court, Too Much, and Eisbeth, the actor also made a return to Broadway as a performer in the show All In: Comedy About Love in January 2025. Plus, Rannels has especially been gearing up for the 15th anniversary of The Book of Mormon, the musical he's known for most of all — celebrating with a "Magical Mormon Mystery Week", in which he'll reprise his role as Elder Price. As Kirkman explained: "It's really difficult because you can't lock an actor in for animation and, you know, control their availability. So you're kind of at the whim of whatever movie or television show or other thing that they're doing, and our cast is filled with massively in-demand actors, and so there are going to be times here and there where, you know, they're just not going to be available." While we indeed don’t have an official reason for William’s recasting, it’s easy to speculate that Rannells’s schedule may have been so packed with his other projects — especially with those on Broadway — coming back to Invincible for just one scene in season 4 just wasn’t feasible. Who is William Clockwell season 1-3 actor Andrew Rannells? View oEmbed on the source website If William’s voice in Invincible seasons 1-3 has sounded familiar to you all this time but you haven't been able to pin it down, that’s because you’ve likely heard actor Andrew Rannells in one of tons of other productions, in film, TV, and theatre: being best known as Elder Kevin Price in the musical The Book of Mormon and Matthew MacDell in Netflix’s Big Mouth. What's more, if you’re a fan of Amazon Prime’s other hit violent superhero series The Boys, you’ll have also heard Andrew Rannells providing the Homelander ice skater in season 4’s Vought on Ice, Let's Put the Christ Back in Christmas — which was arguably the best part of that entire musical parody.

Good Omens season 3 unveils first look at Michael Sheen's Aziraphale in finale episode
This latest peek follows a recent glimpse at David Tennant's Crowley.
Good Omens season 3 has offered fans a fresh glimpse at Michael Sheen’s Aziraphale ahead of the long-awaited 90-minute finale episode of the fantasy series. Shared on the show’s social media pages, the new image sees Sheen’s angel peering in through a window with a calm but curious expression, framed by the familiar surroundings of what appears to be his beloved bookshop. Dressed in his signature pale coat, waistcoat, and bow tie, Aziraphale looks every bit as immaculate as ever — even if the mood of the shot suggests all is not quite as peaceful as it seems. It makes for a rather different first look than the one recently released for David Tennant’s Crowley, which showed the demon looking distinctly more dishevelled and furious. Put side by side, the two images hint that the Good Omens finale could have both chaos and quiet heartbreak in store as the story comes to an end. Plot details for the final chapter are still being kept firmly under wraps, but the 90-minute special is set to land on 13 May 2026 and will bring the Prime Video adaptation to a close. The series, based on the novel by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, follows the unlikely bond between angel Aziraphale and demon Crowley, whose friendship has repeatedly placed them at the centre of heaven-and-hell-sized trouble. Season 2, ending all the way back in July 2023, left viewers on an emotional cliffhanger, with Aziraphale and Crowley pulled onto very different paths just when it seemed as though they might finally be honest about what they meant to one another. That has left fans particularly eager to see how the finale handles their reunion, or whether it will make things even messier first. Sheen previously teased that the final instalment would give viewers plenty to talk about, suggesting there will be moments fans adore as well as developments that spark debate. Neil Gaiman, co-author of Good Omens, exited the TV series after he was accused of sexual assault, which he has strongly denied. He contributed to writing the Good Omens finale but he did not work on the production and his production company Blank Corporation was not involved. A total of nine women have spoken out against the writer, with their accusations being detailed in a Vulture article published in January 2025, and in a Tortoise Media podcast released in July 2024. Allegations included claims that Gaiman engaged them in "rough" sex and BDSM without their consent. The novelist has firmly denied any non-consensual or illegal conduct in a statement. He said: "As I read through this latest collection of accounts, there are moments I half-recognise and moments I don't, descriptions of things that happened sitting beside things that emphatically did not happen. "I'm far from a perfect person, but I have never engaged in non-consensual sexual activity with anyone. Ever." Good Omens season 3 will arrive on Prime Video on 13 May 2026.

School Spirits future finally confirmed weeks following end of acclaimed season 3 episodes
With an official announcement from Paramount itself.
Fans have spent the weeks since the finale asking the same thing: if School Spirits has been renewed for season 4. Now, there’s finally a clear answer. Paramount+ has officially confirmed School Spirits season 4, putting an end to the uncertainty that followed the end of the show’s latest run. The streamer announced the renewal on 24 March, after season 3 wrapped on 4 March, meaning the supernatural drama’s future has been locked in less than a month after its most recent finale. That news will come as a major relief to viewers, because season 4 of School Spirits always felt likely after the way the latest episodes left things hanging. Paramount’s official announcement said the series had closed its third season on a high with critical acclaim, and also noted that the latest run carried a perfect 100% Tomatometer score on Rotten Tomatoes. While Paramount+ hasn’t revealed a season 4 release date yet, the renewal suggests there is still plenty more story to tell after that dramatic season 3 ending. Paramount Plus's own post-finale breakdown made clear there are still major loose ends surrounding Maddie, Split River High, and the fallout from the final episode, so a return always seemed more like a necessity than a bonus. The next instalment also looks set to keep the same creative core intact. Paramount confirmed that creators Nate and Megan Trinrud will continue as co-showrunners and executive producers, while Oliver Goldstick remains involved as a consultant. Star Peyton List is also continuing as an executive producer alongside leading the cast on-screen. School Spirits is available to stream Paramount Plus – you can sign up for Paramount Plus now.

What a fourth season could involve now that the third is at the endpoint.
With Oshi No Ko season 3 wrapping up as of 25 March, with its one-hour special for episode 35, whether there will be a season 4 is surely the next major question on many fans’ minds. Based on the manga by Aka Akasaka and Mengo Yokoyari, the anime has become a major modern anime hit – there’s one major difference between this and other series like Frieren, Oshi No Ko’s source material has already finished, with the manga ending in November 2024. With that, it’s easy to wonder naturally, fans are already wondering what comes next for Aqua, Ruby, and the rest of the cast, as we know there are more adventures to be had. Has an Oshi No Ko season 4 been confirmed? At the time of writing, Oshi No Ko has not officially been renewed for season 4. The anime’s official website is currently centred on season 3 news, including its finale, with no fourth season announcement listed just yet. That said, a renewal certainly wouldn’t be a surprise. Season 3 was officially announced in October 2024, and with the manga already complete, the anime team now has a full story to work from. That doesn’t confirm season 4, of course — but it does make the chances feel strong. When could a potential Oshi No Ko season 4 be released? If Oshi No Ko is renewed for season 4, we wouldn’t expect it to arrive especially quickly. The first season aired from April to June 2023, the second aired from July to October 2024, and the third began in January 2026. Based on that pattern, 2027 feels like the absolute earliest a fourth season of Oshi No Ko could arrive — and even that is only speculation for now. A 2028 release wouldn’t be out of the question either, depending on the scale of the adaptation and production schedule. For now, though, that remains educated guesswork until an official announcement is made. What could a potential Oshi No Ko season 4 be about? As for what the potential season could cover, based on where season 3 seems to be ending, season 4 would likely focus on the rest of The 15-Year Lie storyline, with the film about Ai’s life becoming the emotional centre of the story. That would mean more fallout from Ruby being pulled closer to Ai’s role, more tension around Aqua’s revenge plan, and even more pressure on Kana, Akane, and the rest of the cast as the project forces them to confront painful truths from the past. The Movie arc itself is centred on the production of that film, including its casting and filming process, so there’s clearly still a great deal of material left for the anime to adapt. View oEmbed on the source website What’s more, there’s an even bigger reason season 4 could be especially dramatic: the Movie arc is followed by two later manga arcs, The End of the Play and Toward the Stars and Dreams, with the latter serving as the manga’s final arc. In other words, if Oshi No Ko does return, season 4 could well be the season that pushes the anime fully into its endgame, dealing with the fallout of the film and moving the story much closer to its ultimate conclusion. Since the manga itself finished in November 2024, so the full roadmap is already there. Oshi No Ko seasons 1-2 are available to stream on Crunchyroll.

How to watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure in order
And whether you need to see it all before Steel Ball Run.
Figuring out how to watch JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure in order can feel oddly daunting at first, especially now that Steel Ball Run (the seventh story arc in the franchise) has started on Netflix. Between the changing protagonists, the different subtitles, and the franchise’s habit of reinventing itself every few arcs, it is easy to see why so many viewers end up searching for the right JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure watch order — being sure that nothing important is missed. The good news is that the anime is much less confusing than its reputation suggests. Once you know how the series is organised, the canon order to watch JoJo becomes far clearer — and there is a simple way to tackle it without missing any of the big character moments or the stranger twists along the way. How to watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure in order For anyone wondering what order to watch the JoJo anime in, the cleanest answer is to follow the main parts in release order. The official anime portal lists the franchise across six numbered TV seasons, beginning with Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency in the first season, then moving through Stardust Crusaders, Diamond is Unbreakable, Golden Wind, Stone Ocean, and now Steel Ball Run. That means the canon JoJo order to watch is: JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Phantom Blood JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Battle Tendency JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean Steel Ball Run: JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Do you have to watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure in order? To understand and enjoy each separate season of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, you don’t need to watch the show in the exact order before Steel Ball Run, but it does become slightly easier to understand the overarching story if you do. This is because each part of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure has its own central cast, its own setting, and its own immediate conflict going on as part of the plot, which means you can usually follow the basics of an individual arc without having seen every episode beforehand. That is part of what has helped JoJo Bizarre Adventure stay so accessible across different generations of fans. For example, new JoJo anime fans will get more fun out of watching Diamond is Unbreakable if they’ve seen Stardust Crusaders first, due to it partially being a continuation of the stories of Jotaro Kujo and Joseph Joestar — who were the titular ‘JoJo’ protagonists of their respective seasons. That said, Diamond is Unbreakable mainly follows Josuke Higashikata and the narrative surrounding him discovering his Stand and unlocking his powers, so you don’t need to have seen the earlier chapters to get the gist of what’s going on. Do you need to watch the rest of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure before Steel Ball Run? View oEmbed on the source website In the same sense that you don’t need to watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure to understand Steel Ball Run, you can also skip the rest of the series entirely (if you wish) and still enjoy the new series on Netflix. Along with the fact that Steel Ball Run continues the anime’s trend for each season featuring its own independent story, this new JoJo anime marks the start of the franchise’s soft reboot — after original manga author Hirohiko Araki reset the timeline during the events of Stone Ocean. With that, there’s even less of a requirement than usual to be up to speed on JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure so far before diving into Steel Ball Run. On the other hand, Steel Ball Run is still classed as Part 7 of the anime, and nevertheless presented as the continuation of the wider JoJo saga and the story of the Joestars altogether, even if it is set in an alternative continuity. Even if you’re a newcomer if starts JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure with Steel Ball Run first, checking out the remaining seasons is recommended to get the most enjoyment out of this stellar set of anime seasons. Steel Ball Run: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure episode 1 is available to stream on Netflix now. Sign up for Netflix from £5.99 a month. Netflix is also available on Sky Glass and Virgin Media Stream.

One Piece anime confirms exciting cast update ahead of long-awaited return
The countdown to One Piece’s anime return is nearly over, and the sense of anticipation around Elbaph has only continued to grow, especially now that two new casting announcements have been revealed. After months away from screens, the series is set to resume on 5 April in Japan, picking up with one of the manga’s most long-awaited storylines and ushering in the next phase of the Straw Hats' adventure. That comeback already feels like a major event in itself, especially after the franchise confirmed a three-month break from January to March 2026 as part of a broader production shake-up. Now, with the premiere drawing closer, fans have another reason to get excited. View oEmbed on the source website In a post shared by the series’ official X account, One Piece confirmed that Ayane Sakura will voice Gerd, while Ryota Takeuchi will play Road in the upcoming Elbaph arc. In the manga, Gerd and Road aren’t just random new faces for the anime. Both are giants from Elbaph and are tied to the New Giant Warrior Pirates, the crew led by Hajrudin. Gerd serves as the crew’s doctor, while Road is its navigator It’s a smart bit of casting, too, given the experience of both of these voice actors. Many anime fans will already know Sakura for roles including Ochaco Uraraka in My Hero Academia and Fiona Frost in Spy x Family, while Takeuchi is well known for playing Elias Ainsworth in The Ancient Magus’ Bride and Wakatoshi Ushijima in Haikyu!!. View oEmbed on the source website The same announcement also said comments from both performers will be published in Weekly Shonen Jump issue 18, which goes on sale on 30 March. Elbaph has been teased for years in the wider One Piece story, especially since the Egghead Arc ended after episode 1155. With the Straw Hats finally about to visit the home of Dorry and Brogy, who many Netflix fans will have seen for the first time in season 2 of the live-action One Piece show, this new anime season is about to get even more action-packed. One Piece is available to stream on Crunchyroll. Check out more of our Fantasy coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to find out what's on.

Bizarre Lineage codes: Are there any codes in March 2026?
It looks like a handful more is on the way.
Looking for Bizarre Lineage codes? You're in the right place. This JoJo's Bizarre Adventure-esque Roblox game has some freebies to give away to those who input codes into the game Unfortunately, there aren't always active codes, but this hasn't stopped the game from being a hit since its launch, now enjoying over 60,000 active players. If you're the type of player who enjoys multiple Roblox titles, we have codes pages for The Forge, Blox Fruits, 99 Nights in the Forest, Jujutsu Zero, and Kaizen, as well — alongside our favourite image IDs and music IDs. Back to Bizarre Lineage codes: Read on for the full list of working codes in the game and how to use them. Bizarre Lineage codes: Are there any codes in March 2026? Here is the full list of working Bizarre Lineage codes: !code 30kLikes — 1x Stat Point Essence !code 100kLikes — 1x Stat Point Essence, 1x Rare Chest !code shutdownwoops — 1x Stand Stat Essence !code 1week — 1x Stand Personality Essence Midas (the Roblox game's creator) will be releasing at least one new code when the game reaches 200k Likes — which they confirmed in the 'announcements' section of its official Discord Server. In recent days, Midas seems to have been promising new codes with various 'Like' milestones — such as 20K Likes or 100K Likes — but has kept shifting the goal. However, on 5 March, they announced that a new code will be dropped when 200K Likes is reached. While Midas could simply shift the goal again, there's a bit more of an assurance this time — because they also said: "I owe you guys a lot of 'em." That implies Bizarre Lineage will not only get a code at 200K Likes, but also the additional codes owed for hitting the previous milestones. Still, we'll be keeping up to date with the situation in the Bizarre Lineage Discord, so be sure to check back here later to see if anything changes. Once they arrive, we expect that the codes will reward players with free currency, buffs, unique items, and if we're very lucky, maybe even a Stand or two – but that's all just speculation for the time being.

Invincible bosses tease season 4’s long-awaited villain who “far exceeds” Conquest
The leader of the Viltrumites will live up to his title.
As Invincible season 4 is scaling up the stakes with the Viltrumite War saga, as it did in the original comics, all eyes have been on Thragg — who is set to even make the juggernaut that was season 3’s Conquest look like a street thug by comparison. The Viltrum Empire’s leader, as Grand Regent, Thragg is regarded as the most powerful Viltrumite of all at the time in the comics, and is just as ruthless as his great strength would have you believe. We were recently given the same level of warning from the creator of Invincible himself: Robert Kirkman, who is co-showrunner and executive producer on the series adaptation. In a recent interview ahead of season 4, Kirkman, along with fellow co-showrunner and executive producer Simon Racioppa, told Radio Times exactly what makes Thragg a different kind of threat to what Mark has faced so far, along with learning more about the Viltrumites themselves. "As far as Thragg, I mean, he's almost elemental in how powerful he is, you know, and he's a threat that far exceeds even Conquest and anything that that Mark has faced", said Kirkman. "With him, and with his introduction here, we're going to find out so much more about the Viltramites and their society and everything that you know makes them tick, that I think that people are going to have a better awareness of what the stakes are and how this universe works, and just, it's a really exciting season for a myriad of different reasons." View Green Video on the source website As Nolan says during the recent season 4 teaser trailer for the character: "However strong you think you are, Thragg is stronger". We won’t spoil what we events from we expect from the comics to see in season 4, but we'll at least note that even Conquest — the most violent and terrifyingly brutal Viltrumite Mark has fought so far at the time — was deeply afraid of him. Racioppa added to Kirkman’s points, laying out how daunting seeing Thragg and the rest of his Viltrumites show up will be compared to what’s come before: "I mean, up to now, we've seen the threat one Viltrumite causes, right, either Anissa, or Nolan, or Conquest. So now, imagine the rest of them showing up, led by possibly the most powerful, most trained, most perfect Viltrumite of them all." "So we've teased it for a long time. We figured maybe now it's about time you met the rest of the family, you know." As Nolan pointed out to Allen in season 3, after they broke out of prison, there are fewer than 50 pure-blooded Viltrumites left. Be that as it may, even only having that many turned against the Earth can mean certain doom if Mark, Nolan, and co aren’t prepared. For context, season 3’s Invincible War unleashed twenty evil versions of Mark upon the planet. Sure, twelve of them were defeated and killed, but at the cost of many destroyed cities and countless casualties — including heroes like Rex Splode. If it weren’t for Angstrom Levy trapping the remaining eight in another dimension as they were about to betray him, the Invincibles left would have surely been enough to take over the planet. Compared to those evil Invincible Mark Graysons, who are still powerful but are only around 19-years-old at the time, Thragg alone would likely wipe the floor with them — at least the eight who were left. Throw in the roughly three dozen Viltrumites he’s capable of bringing with him, all with thousands of years of training and experience, and the Mark Grayson of this show’s Invincible universe will be pushed far beyond the brink of what he thought was possible. Invincible season 4 will be made available to stream on Amazon Prime from Wednesday, 18 March 2026.

Invincible boss teases season 4’s "completely original" story in major change from comics
Along with the Viltrumite War arc and the long-awaited debut of Dinosaurus, Invincible season 4 will see the return of a character in a change from the comics that's 'completely original to the show'. In preparation for the big reveal, series co-showrunners and executive producers Robert Kirkman and Simon Racioppa, have given us a tease about its great importance. In season 1 of Invincible, demon detective Damien Darkblood was part of the show’s initial storyline about investigating Omni-Man (Nolan Grayson) as the prime suspect for murdering the Guardians of the Globe. His part in the television adaptation ended a bit differently compared to the comics. In the show, Cecil sent him back to Hell to stop him from interfering with his own plans; originally, Darkblood was more of a gag character in the comics, and naturally disappeared from the story once Omni-Man's guilt was revealed. View Green Video on the source website Years after a slight tease during a post-credits scene of his final season 1 episode, and confirmation with a new scene at the end of season 3 where he speaks to Satan, Damien Darkblood will be making his Invincible return in season 4 — via a new storyline that’s completely original to the show. As gathered from snippets of Invincible’s season 4 trailers so far, Darkblood’s new story seems to be set in Hell — it appears that we'll see him don intimidating armour to take on a powerful enemy, and pull Mark Grayson into the fray. When asking Kirkman and Racioppa about how this will affect and fit in with the Viltrumite War Arc — the main plot of season 4 — both were keen to share that this wasn’t skippable content, and is still important to the show, both for comic fans and those who only know Invincible through the series. "We always change things and enhance things and lengthen stories and shorten stories, so there’s a lot of big differences in this show. But to have something that's completely original and completely new, you know, hasn't happened a lot in the series up to this point," Kirkman said. "And so this is something that you know is wholly original to the show. And I think that's going to be really cool, how it fits into the story, and how it weaves into the overall tapestry of the Viltrumite War. You'll just have to find out." To hone in on the importance of this new storyline, despite not being featured in the comics, Racioppa added: "But we can promise you there's no episode of Invincible that you can skip. Everything's connected. Everything affects our characters. Everything changes the story as it goes forward. So it's definitely an important episode in the season." If the last seasons are anything to go by, both Kirkman’s and Racippa's words will definitely run true. Thanks to the comic’s original creator being so involved with the series adaptation, appropriate adjustments that improve the storytelling but still hold true to the source material can easily be made. For instance, Nolan and Debbie’s relationship in season 1 was given much more weight before the big fight between Omni-Man and Mark — giving the fallout a far larger impact at the time and in later seasons. View oEmbed on the source website Even recently, gender-swapping Shrinking Rae for the show, changing her fate to survive her original death by the Lizard League’s Komodo Dragon, ended up becoming one of the best changes, thanks to her new character development shown in season 3. Despite season 4 going deeper into some of the comic’s bigger and wackier stories; Dinosaurus, Universa, the preparation for the Viltrumuite War with the Coalation of Planets; if anyone could make an extra story about Damien Darkblood fit into an already packed bunch of episodes, it's Kirkman and Racioppa.

How to play Pokémon Pokopia on Switch 1: Nintendo's weird loophole explained
If you’re wondering if Pokémon Pokopia is natively on the original Nintendo Switch 1, the short answer is no — but there is one way you can play the game on the older console. In the event that you have someone in your life who owns a Nintendo Switch 2 and you don't, there is a handy feature you can use to enjoy the cosy Pokémon adventure in your own right. So, whether you’re asking if Pokopia will come to Switch 1, looking for a Pokopia on Switch 1 release, or simply trying to find out how the current loophole works, here’s everything you need to know. How to play Pokémon Pokopia on Switch 1 If you want to play Pokopia on Switch 1, the only current method is through the Nintendo Switch 2's GameShare feature — available in the Pokémon Center of Palette Town, which is only accessible through the Withered Wasteland when you learn Rock Smash. GameShare lets one supported Switch 2 game be shared to another system, including an original Nintendo Switch, so another player can join in without owning the game themselves. Nintendo also confirms on Pokémon Pokopia's game page that only Nintendo Switch 2 consoles can share games, while both Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch systems can receive them over a local wireless connection. Something to note is that you can only use GameShare with a Switch 2 and Switch 1 via a local wireless connection, and you cannot do it online. This means if you want to use GameShare with someone on a Switch 1, they have to be with you in person. Fellow Switch 2 owners can make use of GameChat to use GameShare online. What's more, anyone receiving software via GameShare can only use it for the duration of that session. Once the GameShare session ends, the shared version of the game is no longer playable. View Green Video on the source website It's quite a strange decision, considering it doesn't appear to be a very intensive game to run, especially when you consider that the much more expansive Pokémon Legends: Z-A managed to get a Switch 1 version. For that reason, we can only assume that Pokopia is another title in Nintendo's gradual move away from the Switch 1, and towards the Switch 2 being its one and only console.
