Netflix's 'Love Death + Robots' to debut on Season 3 on May 20

If you're like me and are a fan of the Love Death + Robots anthology, you'll be happy to learn that Netflix's "problem child" animated show (watch the trailer above) is coming back next month. The third season of the animation anthology will debut on May 20. Still, it isn't known how many episodes we'll get this time. 

The Tim Miller and David Fincher-produced series has featured varied animation styles that move from hyper-realistic to 2D cel animation to everything in between. And we're expecting to see more in this new season.

Panic Playdate gaming device have started shipping

The handheld gaming device Panic Playdate has finally begun shipping. At least for what the company calls its "Group One" customers. They sent out a tweet saying the shipping had started that day this Monday. So, if you were one of the first to preorder the device in 2021, you should get an email from the company about your unit. Panic promises to "ramp up" its shipping volume to ensure the Group One buyers get it during the next month. 

The company also plans to share info on Group Two orders soon. If you're thinking of ordering a Playdate now, unfortunately, the wait will be quite long. Panic is already taking orders for 2023. It says on its website, "The queue for 2023 is quickly growing, so preorder now, and secure your place in line!"

No More Heroes 3 will no longer be a Nintendo Switch exclusive. Publisher XSeed Games announced on Twitter that it will release Suda 51's latest project on the PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series X/S, and PC sometime in the fall. You can expect improved high-definition visuals, better framerates, and faster loading times, which can address the performance issues sometimes seen on the Switch version.

It isn't known yet how much the new versions will cost. Still, you can expect limited-edition physical copies with extra goodies like a soundtrack with cover art referencing Akira. XSeed plans to reveal information about the digital release later.
