Next year's Call of Duty game will be a sequel to 2019's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, according to new reports.

Industry insider Tom Henderson tweeted that Call of Duty 2022, codenamed Project Cortez, is expected to be a sequel to 2019's Modern Warfare reboot.

VGC also reports that Modern Warfare 2 is on the way next year and that it will include a campaign featuring U.S. special forces fighting Colombian drug cartels. Project Cortez was part of this week's GeForce Now datamine, with Infinity Ward slated to be the developer.

In IGN's Modern Warfare 2019 review, we called the game "great," saying, "Modern Warfare’s gorgeous new Realism mode, the large-scale Ground War, and quick and dirty Gunfight help mix things up for a good time." It would make sense for the series to follow up the 2019 reboot since Modern Warfare broke multiple sales records at the time of its release.

This year, it's Sledgehammer Games' turn to release the new Call of Duty, with Call of Duty: Vanguard set to come to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, Xbox One, and PC on November 4.

The iPhone 13 is here and as expected it's more of an iteration of the iPhone 12 family of devices rather than overhauling the phones with a new design or radically overhauled features. Thanks to a complete reveal of everything about the phone during Apple's California Streaming event, we know everything there's to know about the latest iPhone. Whether you're looking for the iPhone 13 release date, price, or a complete breakdown of its specs we've got you covered here.

iPhone 13: Release Date and Price

The iPhone 13 is available starting September 24, 2021 and preorders begin on September 17th.

iPhone 13: Design

We got a notable redesign with the iPhone 12’s introduction of the squared-off metal frame rather than the rounded frames Apple had been using for several generations. Apple hasn't made any dramatic shifts in style for the iPhone 13 but there are a few subtle changes.

The four iPhone 13 models may look identical to their predecessors, but the notch at the top of all the phones is 20% smaller. This is the first time the notch has been reduced in size since it was introduced years ago on the iPhone X.

iPhone 13: Performance and Internals

All the new iPhone 13 models come rocking Apple's A15 Bionic chipset. This is an all-new chip that utilizes a 6-core processor and 4-core GPU. The processor specifically features a new setup of two high-performance, and four high-efficiency cores. According to Apple, the new chip delivers 50% faster CPU and 30% faster GPU performance and than its Android competition.

The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini feature a new iPhone 13 1200-nit Super Retina XDR display. The iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max don't get nearly as bright at only 1000-nits but they boast a new ProMotion display that goes as fast as 120Hz. The display is basically designed to match the motion of your finger and scale up or down the refresh rate of the display accordingly. So if you're just looking at a static image it'll stay at 10Hz and if you swipe quickly it'll jump to 120Hz.

iPhone 13: Software

Apple’s new phones always come with the newest version of iOS. In this case, that’ll be iOS 15. We learned all about the major features coming with iOS 15 at Apple’s WWDC 2021 event.

iPhone 13: Cameras

Cameras are always the most exciting things about new Apple handsets and the iPhone 13 really delivers.

First, all the main-wide angle cameras on all the iPhone 13 models have been upgraded with a new 1.7µm sensor that captures 50% more light. This should in turn lead to photos with much more dynamic range and greatly improved low-light photography. The Ultrawide camera, meanwhile, features a larger f2.4 aperture that also lets in more light for better low-light performance.

The telephoto camera found on the iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max has also been upgraded from a 2x to a 3x optical zoom. This makes it a 77mm equivalent lens to give users extra reach. The Ultrawide camera on the Pro models also has an extra macro photography mode that lets users shoot as close as 2cm for extra up close images.

The iPhone 13 also introduces two new video shooting features. The new cinematic mode is available to all iPhone 13 models and it basically allows users to shift focus smoothly from one subject to another. The iPhone 13 Pro models also record a depth map so users can shift focus to wherever they want in post-production even long after they shoot the video.

The iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max can also shoot videos in ProRes, which is an advanced video codec used in professional video shooting. It basically offers users a way to shoot footage with higher color fidelity, less compression, and greater editing flexibility.

It appears a remake for Destroy All Humans! 2 is real and in development.

In a now-deleted tweet, PlayStation officially announced the Destroy All Humans! 2 – Reprobed noting the game will come to PS5. A trailer was also shared in the tweet as well but mentioned no release date. The end of the trailer also notes that THQ and Black Forest Games are tied to the remake; the latter also developed the remake for the original Destroy All Humans!

The tweet has since been deleted ahead of a planned THQ Nordic 10th-anniversary livestream set for later this week.

Destroy All Humans! 2 was originally released back in 2006 on PS2 and Xbox. Set 10 years after the original game's events, players control Crypto-138, a clone of the first game's protagonist, Crypto-137. A remake for the game was originally teased earlier this year, but not much info was shared other than Destroy All Humans! senior producer Martin Kreuch saying that there may be more details shared "soon."

IGN reviewed the 2020 remake of Destroy All Humans!, which received a 7 on our review scale calling the game "simple but satisfying." While we do not have a release date for Destroy All Humans! 2 – Reprobed, we do know that THQ Nordic is part of Embracer Group, a holding company that has said it has 150 games in development; 70 of those games are to be completed by March 2022.

A modder has put the Super Mario 64 engine inside of Minecraft, creating a playable version of Mario in the game.

@pdxdylan posted on Twitter, showing off his work to get the polygonal plumber inside the blocky world of Minecraft. You can see Mario running around multiple biomes, showing off his triple jump, long jump, swimming, climbing, and more moves straight from the classic N64 title.

I'm working on a #Minecraft mod that runs the Super Mario 64 engine! It's very WIP right now but here's some highlights pic.twitter.com/QCfzl10ip0

— Dylan (@pdxdylan) September 13, 2021

IGN spoke to Dylan, who says he was inspired to make this project, simply because he knew it was possible, and that it would look a bit funny.

"I've done other work with Super Mario 64 before on other engines, but the thought of Mario in a completely different game intrigued me, so I decided to do it as a fun project," Dylan said. "I've always been into tinkering with games, figuring out how they work, and making mods for them."

Dylan says that this project was made possible by the n64decomp community, a group of fans and modders who reverse-engineered Super Mario 64 to decompile the source code. However, due to Nintendo's history of issuing cease and desist orders for fan projects, Dylan doesn't have any plans to release the Mario Minecraft mashup.

"I really do wish I could release it to the community. There's a lot of potential for this mod, especially ideas like players being able to build their own courses for Mario to run around in, or speedrunners trying to beat Minecraft as Mario in the quickest time," Dylan said. "However, due to Nintendo's strict enforcement on fan games and mods, I don't believe it will ever reach that point."

Dylan says his personal end goal is to make Minecraft playable from start to finish as Mario. In a follow-up tweet, he also said he'll continue posting videos of the project online, to keep giving the community glimpses of this fun mod.

Didn't expect this to gain traction so quickly so I should prob. clarify: Due to how Nintendo deals w/ Fan projects (DMCAing em) I sadly can't promise a download, either now or in the future. The most I can do now is post silly videos of what I do in-game with it

A sequel to the 1988 comedy Twins is officially a go, with Tracy Morgan set to join Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito as the pair's third brother, per Deadline. Triplets is currently being shopped in the Toronto Film Festival market, with the production sending out a reel of the three actors to potential buyers. The production is aiming to begin filming in January 2022, with director Ivan Reitman also set to return to the director's chair.

"I haven’t directed in a couple years, but Arnold kept saying, 'C’mon, we had such a great time,'" Reitman said. "I had a great time doing the first one, and this is going to be fun.”

Triplets will reportedly follow Schwarzenegger and DeVito's Benedict brothers as they come into contact with a long lost brother played by Morgan.

The original Twins was an impressive commercial success for Universal when it released in theaters in 1988. The film grossed $216 million worldwide against a reported production budget of $18 million. A sequel has been in the works for nearly a decade, with reports of Eddie Murphy's attachment to the project emerging in 2012.

Reitman confirmed that Murphy was a large factor in the sequel's conception, though the director assured that Morgan will be a fantastic replacement.

"This whole thing started with Arnold meeting Eddie Murphy, and the suggestion came from one of them,” Reitman said. "We started a script with Eddie, and after the success he had with Amazon Prime on Coming 2 America, he got himself booked up heavily. And we knew we were going to make it at the beginning of next year. I’d been good friends with Tracy Morgan for a long time and always thought he was one of the funniest men in the world. I thought he would make a terrific triplet, and we rewrote the whole script for him."
