Afrobeats singer, songwriter, and producer Pheelz has officially confirmed that a new EP will be released in March 2026, describing the project as a personal and creative reset.

The announcement was made directly by the artist in a heartfelt message to fans, where he revealed that the upcoming EP represents a period of realignment and renewed purpose in his music journey.

“I have an EP coming in March. I’m so proud of it; it’s a reset and a realignment. I have so much to give out and I’m not going to hold it anymore,” Pheelz wrote.

According to the statement, the project will form part of Pheelz’s broader plans for 2026, a year he says will focus on deeper connection with his audience and more intentional music releases. The producer turned-artist also emphasized his desire to share music and content that fans have not experienced from him before.

Beyond the EP, Pheelz hinted at a more direct relationship with listeners through exclusive drops, content, and fan engagement initiatives, referring to his growing community as a “Tribe.”

“All I’ve ever wanted is an audience to experience music in the way I see it… I want to connect more with you, give you music that you haven’t heard, content you haven’t seen.”

While details such as the EP’s title, tracklist, and featured acts remain undisclosed, the March 2026 timeline is now officially confirmed by the artist himself.

More information is expected to be revealed as the release date draws closer.

The Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2025 has reached its business end, with CAF officially confirming the quarter-final fixtures following the conclusion of the Round of 16 matches in Morocco.

The last eight features some of Africa’s biggest footballing nations, setting the stage for a series of high-stakes encounters as teams battle for a place in the semi-finals.

AFCON 2025 Quarter-Final Fixtures

Friday, January 9, 2026

• Mali vs Senegal – Grand Stade de Tangier
• Cameroon vs Morocco – Stade Prince Moulay Abdellah, Rabat

Saturday, January 10, 2026

• Algeria vs Nigeria – Stade de Marrakech
• Egypt vs Côte d’Ivoire – Stade Adrar, Agadir

The quarter-finals deliver several classic African football rivalries and high-profile matchups.

West African neighbours Mali and Senegal face off in what promises to be a tightly contested encounter, with both sides showing tactical discipline and defensive solidity throughout the tournament.

Hosts Morocco will rely on home support as they take on five-time champions Cameroon, a team known for thriving under pressure in knockout stages.

One of the standout ties sees Nigeria square off against Algeria, a clash between two continental heavyweights with rich AFCON histories. Both teams come into the game with strong momentum after convincing Round of 16 performances.

Meanwhile, Egypt meet Côte d’Ivoire in a fixture that pits AFCON’s most successful nation against the former champions, adding extra weight to an already high-profile contest.

With no clear favourites remaining, AFCON 2025 is shaping up to be one of the most competitive editions in recent years. The winners of these fixtures will advance to the semi-finals, keeping their hopes of continental glory firmly alive.

PC gaming in 2026 is defined by games that have strong worlds, clear narrative direction, and long-term relevance. Below is a curated top 10 list, combining what each game is about with why it continues to matter today.

1. Baldur’s Gate 3

Genre: RPG

Set in the Dungeons & Dragons world of Faerûn, the game follows characters infected with mind-flayer parasites that threaten to transform them. As players search for a cure, they become entangled in political power struggles, ancient magic, and a cult known as the Absolute.

2. Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

Genre: Action RPG

This expansion explores a hidden realm connected to the demigod Miquella. Players uncover forgotten histories, confront corrupted divine forces, and explore lands shaped by betrayal, ambition, and decay.

3. Alan Wake 2

Genre: Survival Horror

The story alternates between Alan Wake, trapped in a twisted alternate reality, and FBI agent Saga Anderson, investigating ritual murders in a small town. Their narratives intersect as fiction and reality collapse into each other.

One of the most narrative-driven horror games on PC.

4. Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty

Genre: Action RPG

Set in Night City’s sealed-off Dogtown district, the story follows mercenary V as they are pulled into a political espionage plot involving the New United States of America, rogue soldiers, and a collapsing power structure.

5. Disco Elysium

Genre: Narrative RPG

Players assume the role of a detective who wakes up with no memory while investigating a murder in the city of Revachol. The story unfolds through dialogue, inner monologues, and ideological conflict rather than combat.

A rare game driven entirely by writing and ideas.

6. Silent Hill 2 (Remake)

Genre: Survival Horror

James Sunderland arrives in the fog-covered town of Silent Hill after receiving a letter from his dead wife. As he searches for her, the town manifests his guilt, grief, and psychological trauma.

A faithful modern retelling of a psychological horror classic.

7. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (Next-Gen Edition)

Genre: Open-World RPG

The game follows Geralt of Rivia as he searches for his adopted daughter, Ciri, who is being hunted by a supernatural force known as the Wild Hunt. The journey spans war-torn kingdoms, political intrigue, and ancient prophecy.

8. Balatro

Genre: Roguelike / Strategy

Set in an abstract, poker-inspired world, Balatro focuses on building powerful card combinations by bending traditional rules. There is no linear story, only escalating challenges and progression systems.

9. Stardew Valley

Genre: Life Simulation

Players inherit a rundown farm and move to a quiet rural town. The narrative develops organically through farming, relationships, community projects, and personal milestones.

10. Valorant

Genre: Tactical Shooter

Set in a near-future Earth, the game follows elite agents with unique abilities competing in high-stakes tactical missions. The story is delivered gradually through characters, lore updates, and environmental details.

One of PC gaming’s most active and competitive ecosystems.

The best PC games in 2026 are not defined by release year, but by world-building, narrative clarity, and staying power. 

Anime fans are officially heading back into the world of cursed energy. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 is set to premiere tomorrow, launching with a one-hour special that combines the first two episodes of the new season.

The announcement confirms the long-awaited return of one of the most successful anime franchises of the last decade, following the intense and critically acclaimed events of the Shibuya Incident arc.

Produced by MAPPA, Jujutsu Kaisen has grown into a global phenomenon since its debut, earning praise for its animation quality, emotional weight, and high-stakes storytelling. Season 2, which aired in 2023, pushed the series to new heights with darker themes and large-scale character consequences.

Season 3 continues directly from that point, adapting the Culling Game arc, one of the most complex and action-heavy sections of Gege Akutami’s original manga.

Instead of a standard single-episode launch, Season 3 will debut with two episodes released back-to-back, forming a one-hour premiere event. This approach is increasingly used for high-profile anime returns, allowing the story to establish momentum immediately rather than easing in gradually.

After the premiere, the series is expected to return to a weekly episode release schedule.

While avoiding spoilers, the Culling Game arc marks a significant shift in Jujutsu Kaisen’s structure and scale. The story expands beyond familiar battle formats, introducing a high-risk system that forces characters into morally complex situations with lasting consequences.

Its adaptation has been highly anticipated, especially given MAPPA’s reputation for elevating action sequences through cinematic animation and choreography.

Season 3 will air on Japanese television and stream internationally via Crunchyroll, continuing the platform’s role as the primary global distributor for the series outside Asia. Subtitled episodes will be available shortly after broadcast, with dubbed versions expected later.

The Animation Guild (TAG), IATSE Local 839, has recorded a series of significant organizing victories after workers at Netflix Animation, DreamWorks Animation, and NBCUniversal’s Ted television series voted to unionize.

The successful votes expanded the guild’s representation across streaming animation, remote production teams, and television production, marking another major step in the ongoing labor rebalancing within Hollywood’s animation sector.

Feature production workers at Netflix Animation voted in favor of joining The Animation Guild following a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) election.

The vote brings Netflix’s animation production staff under union representation, granting workers the right to collectively bargain for standardized pay, benefits, working hours, and job protections. The result reflects growing efforts by animation workers at streaming platforms to secure conditions comparable to those at traditional studios.

In a separate but equally notable result, remote production workers at DreamWorks Animation also voted to unionize with TAG.

The DreamWorks vote is particularly significant because it covers workers operating remotely across multiple U.S. locations, reinforcing the guild’s position that union protections should apply regardless of physical workplace. As remote work becomes increasingly common in animation production, the outcome establishes a precedent for organizing beyond studio campuses.

A smaller group of production workers on NBCUniversal’s Ted television series voted to unionize with The Animation Guild and the Editors Guild (IATSE Local 700).

The decision highlights a broader organizing push that includes production roles alongside artists and animators, reflecting the expanding scope of unionization efforts within animation-adjacent work.

With the elections concluded, the affected companies are legally required to recognize the union and begin collective bargaining. While the votes do not result in immediate changes to wages or contracts, they provide workers with formal representation and negotiating power moving forward.

The Animation Guild has described the wins as part of a wider effort to adapt labor protections to the realities of modern animation production, particularly in the streaming era.

The results come amid ongoing changes in Hollywood’s labor landscape, as workers across film, television, and animation push for clearer standards in pay, job security, and working conditions.

For streaming platforms like Netflix and established studios like DreamWorks, the votes signal a continued shift toward greater union presence in areas that were previously less organized.

Ivory Coast booked their place in the AFCON 2025 quarterfinals with a convincing 3–0 victory over Burkina Faso, delivering one of their most complete performances of the knockout stage.

The Elephants set the tone early and never relinquished control, combining attacking precision with defensive discipline to overwhelm their West African rivals.

Ivory Coast 3–0 Burkina Faso

Ivory Coast opened the scoring in the 20th minute when A. Diallo finished clinically to give his side an early advantage.

Momentum stayed firmly with the hosts, and just 12 minutes later, Y. Diomande doubled the lead in the 32nd minute, capitalising on sustained pressure to leave Burkina Faso chasing the game before halftime.

Burkina Faso struggled to find a response in the second half as Ivory Coast managed the contest effectively. Any remaining doubt was put to rest late on when B. Touré struck in the 87th minute, sealing a dominant win and confirming progression into the quarterfinals.

Match Summary

Ivory Coast 3–0 Burkina Faso

Goals:

• A. Diallo (20′)
• Y. Diomande (32′)
• B. Touré (87′)

Fans of the high action-comedy franchise Rush Hour have a reason to celebrate. Reports suggest that Rush Hour 4 is gearing up for production, with filming expected to begin in the first half of 2026. The latest installment of the franchise is reportedly planning to shoot across multiple international locations, including China, Africa, and Saudi Arabia.

The film, which follows the legendary partnership of Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker, has been in development for several years. While official confirmations from Paramount Pictures and the lead stars are still pending, industry insiders indicate that pre-production efforts are now moving forward, signaling a potential return to theaters in the near future.

Global Filming Locations

China remains a key location, honoring the franchise’s roots and Jackie Chan’s iconic presence. Africa is reportedly included in the storyline, with speculation pointing to sequences that may involve wildlife or action-driven plotlines. Saudi Arabia also appears on the list, likely reflecting both scenic backdrops and recent trends in international film production partnerships.

Timeline and Release

Though exact filming dates and the final release schedule are not yet officially announced, reports suggest production could kick off as early as spring or summer 2026. If the timeline holds, fans might see Rush Hour 4 hitting theaters by 2027, keeping the series relevant for both longtime followers and a new generation of viewers.

WWE has officially partnered with Netflix in a non-exclusive deal that brings its historic content library to the streaming platform in the United States. The deal, effective immediately, allows Netflix subscribers to access WWE’s archive of premium live events held before September 2025, including some of the most iconic shows in wrestling history.

What’s Included in the Netflix Library

Under the agreement, Netflix subscribers in the U.S. can stream all WWE premium live events prior to September 2025, such as:

• WrestleMania
• SummerSlam
• Royal Rumble
• Survivor Series
• Other major WWE pay-per-view events

In addition to the live event archive, the deal covers WWE documentaries and other library programming, giving fans access to decades of historic matches, storylines, and behind-the-scenes content.

The deal is non-exclusive, meaning WWE retains the rights to license its content to other platforms. This approach allows WWE to expand its reach while still leveraging Netflix’s U.S. subscriber base.

For fans, this deal is a significant upgrade in accessibility. Longtime followers and new viewers alike can now stream classic WWE events on-demand without subscribing to separate wrestling platforms. 

Marvel Studios has officially confirmed the long-awaited arrival of the X-Men into the Marvel Cinematic Universe with the release of the first trailer for Avengers: Doomsday.

The newly released footage confirms the return of Patrick Stewart as Professor Charles Xavier, Ian McKellen as Magneto, and James Marsden as Cyclops, marking the first time the iconic mutant characters appear in an MCU Avengers film.

The trailer features clear appearances of the X-Men characters, ending years of speculation about how and when Marvel would integrate mutants following Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox.

Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen reprise their roles as longtime rivals Professor X and Magneto, while James Marsden returns as Scott Summers / Cyclops, making his first on-screen appearance in the franchise since X-Men: Days of Future Past.

Their inclusion confirms that Avengers: Doomsday will serve as a major crossover event, bringing together legacy Marvel characters and current MCU heroes under one storyline.

Beyond the confirmed X-Men appearances, the Avengers: Doomsday trailer establishes a darker, large-scale conflict tied to the rise of Doctor Doom, who is positioned as the central threat of the film.

Release Information

Avengers: Doomsday is scheduled for theatrical release in December 18, 2026 and is expected to be followed by Avengers: Secret Wars, which will further explore the multiverse and its consequences.
