‘SIGIL’ Release Pushed Back to April
DOOM fans will have to wait a little longer for John Romero’s spiritual successor in SIGIL to be released.
The megawad, which was announced in celebration of DOOM‘s 25th anniversary, was originally scheduled to be released mid-February, but is now scheduled for April. Sensing disappointment (and because someone needed to explain the reasoning behind it all), Romero took to his blog to explain why.
“There were a few snags in production trying to make sure everything is top-notch for fans! I just wanted to let everyone who purchased either the Big Box or the Beast Box know that it is now looking like it will ship sometime in April,” Romero writes. “Thank you for your patience, and I am sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. This also means the free version of SIGIL will have to wait until after the boxes are in the hands of customers.”
The Big Box was being made in conjunction with Limited Run Games, and included the megawad and a few extra goodies on a USB drive, as well as a 2-disc jewel case that contains the game’s soundtrack by Buckethead. The Beast Box, on the other hand, contained all that and much more (including Romero’s head on a spike). Both are sadly sold out, by the way.
If you’re still needing your SIGIL fix, you can always check out Romero’s Twitch stream.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
