Trailers have become a significant part of anticipation culture. These days, eager fans analyze every frame of any advance look at shows like Game of Thrones or movies like Avengers: Endgame. The Verge can help you find the latest trailers as they’re released — not just the biggest and most analysis-worthy sneak peaks, but teasers for promising indie films and streaming shows as well. Follow along for first-look sneak peaks at everything from Netflix’s latest releases to the newest Marvel Cinematic Universe film.
Two.
During Capcom’s February spotlight, the company announced that it’s working on yet another Onimusha game. But don’t expect a companion to the next entry in the franchise announced during last year’s Game Awards. Instead, a remaster of Oniumusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny is on the way. You’ll be able to play this remaster sooner too as it’s expected on PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC sometime this year.
Though Hollywood’s newfound obsession with making horror movies revolving around killer consumer tech is getting a little tired, Cold Wallet — director Cutter Hodierne’s new thriller about a group of armed Redditors looking for revenge after losing everything in a crypto scam — looks pretty legit. The movie hits theaters and digital platforms of February 28th.
Apple’s mystery-packed thriller Surface returns on February 21st, and the second season’s first trailer promises — you guessed it — even more mysteries.
After a few delays, Universal and Blumhouse’s sequel to their $180 million grossing viral hit about a best-friend-AI-bot-gone-bad is scheduled to premiere on June 27th, 2025. Now the first teaser trailer has dropped on the night of the Grammy Awards with an assist from Chappell Roan’s song “Femininomenon.”
In M3gan 2.0 the robot will be resurrected to do battle with a military-grade spinoff based on her original tech, and presumably some new TikTok dances.
But in Is This Seat Taken? you can certainly try. The adorable puzzler has players trying to seat people in just the right spot, whether they’re in a movie theater or a crowded bus, careful to avoid others who are too noisy or smelly. It doesn’t have a release date yet, but the game’s coming to PC and mobile, with a Steam demo available on February 10th.
Hazelight is showing off its next co-op game Split Fiction with a fresh trailer, which includes a dramatic split-screen boss battle. It looks like there’s quite a bit going on in the game thanks to its “side stories” feature, which includes gameplay twists like waterskiing and cyberpunk chase sequences. Split Fiction launches pretty soon, hitting PlayStation, Xbox, and PC on March 6th.
As inspired as some of Blumhouse’s past horror features about deranged machines have been, Drop from writer / director Christopher Landon’s (Happy Death Day, Heart Eyes) really just kinda seems like it’s going to be about a serial killer menacing their victims via AirDrop. The movie’s out April 11th.
It looks like there will be plenty of conflict in the next season of Yellowjackets, with all kinds of bloodshed spanning both time periods. It’s been a bit of a wait — season 2 premiered in 2023 — but the show is back on February 14th.
I’ve been, uh, waiting for this game ever since seeing at Day of the Devs last year, and now While Waiting finally has a release date: it’s hitting the Switch and Steam on February 5th.
It remains to be seen what director David F. Sandberg’s Until Dawn movie adaptation will do to set itself apart from time looping slashers, but in this new featurette, he breaks down how expanding on the game’s universe was one of his bigger goals.
While Richter Belmont and his allies absolutely dogwalked Erzsebet Báthory last time they fought, the vampire messiah looks like she’s coming back with a vengeance in the latest trailer for Castlevania: Nocturne’s upcoming second season.
I know we’re all thinking about the Switch 2, but Nintendo isn’t quite done with its current console. The company just released a new trailer for the Switch remaster of Xenoblade Chronicles X, a sprawling open world RPG that I loved when it originally hit the Wii U. The new version launches on March 20th.
Rabbits My Melody and Kuromi have been fixtures in Hello Kitty’s life for a few decades now, and today Netflix and Sanrio announced that the pair are set to be the stars of their own stop-motion animated series due out some time this July.
Unfortunately, we’ll never fully know what kind of Resident Evil movie George Romero could have made if talks about his proposed adaptation hadn’t collapsed in the late 90s. But George Romero’s Resident Evil — Brandon Salisbury’s new documentary about the failed project — is a deep dive into what could have been.
Everyone is still a bit mesmerized by the horrific beauty of Count Orlok in Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu, but this new behind-the-scenes look at Universal’s Wolf Man makes it seem like there might be another monster folks are thirsting for when the movie hits theaters on January 17th.
De Niro plays a former President called in to investigate a cyberattack that resulted in plane crashes, train derailments, and thousands of deaths in the limited series, premiering February 20th on Netflix.
Zero Day was created by Eric Newman (Narcos) and Noah Oppenheim (The Maze Runner) and also stars Angela Bassett, Matthew Modine, Connie Britton, and Clark Gregg.
Netflix has released another trailer for The Electric State, a live-action film that looks like a slightly goofier take on artist Simon Stålenhag’s retrofuturistic book. This time the clip dives deep into the robot war that created its post-apocalyptic future. Directed by the Russo brothers, the movie starts streaming on March 14th.
The third season of the HBO series starts streaming on February 16th, and will shift the setting to Thailand. It also introduces a whole new cast including the likes of Leslie Bibb and Walton Goggins.
In a sensible world, studios would just post trailers rather than appointment viewing events that need grand proclamations about their imminent arrival. But we live here and DC Studios wants you to know that the trailer for James Gunn’s Superman is dropping this Thursday.
This time it’s Lionel Messi, who joins the likes of former teammate Neymar, other athletes like Naomi Osaka and LeBron James, and musicians ranging from Billie Eilish to Snoop Dogg as playable characters. He’ll be available in the item shop starting at 7PM ET tonight.
During The Game Awards 2024, Mafia: The Old Country, debuted a new trailer. The game, launching in summer 2025, will get into one family’s struggle in La Cosa Nostra in 1900s Sicily to the delight (or potential dismay) of mobsters everywhere. RIP Paulie Walnuts, maybe this would have been a better “Old Country” experience than the one you had.
They just announced Stage Fright, another co-op experience that takes things in a spookier direction. (It’ll support both online play and couch co-op when it launches.) The game is also being published by No Man’s Sky maker Hello Games.
Tekken 8 is getting a new fighter. On December 16th, Clive Rosfield of Final Fantasy XVI will become the second ever Final Fantasy character to enter the King of Iron Fist Tournament. He, along with a FF16-themed stage will join Tekken 8 as a part of its winter update. It’s no Waffle House (or Tifa Lockhart for that matter) but I’ll take it.
