Stark clocks a SHIELD agent slacking off playing Galaga on the Helicarrier and makes fun of him for it. The joke doesn't stop there though - the second Tony walks off, the agent goes right back to playing, and if you pause on the screen his score matches the game's existing high score. He was mid-run on the best game of his life and Stark just had to go and ruin it.
Jinx's voice actor Ella Purnell had already built a solid resume with Yellowjackets, Army of the Dead and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children before Arcane, and went on to headline Amazon's Fallout as Lucy MacLean not long after. Jinx is generally seen as the role that really put her on the map for mainstream audiences.
The framing story picks up right where Brotherhood left Desmond in pieces. After being forced to kill Lucy, he slips into a coma, and the only way to pull him back out is by diving through the Animus into Ezio's memories, which is really the whole reason we're reliving Constantinople in the first place.
The finale's title, 'Felina,' is an anagram of 'finale,' but it's also a quiet tribute. A 16-year-old superfan named Kevin Cordasco, who was terminally ill, got to visit set and meet the cast before he passed away — and his name was worked into the episode's credits.
Colin Farrell's prosthetics were made up of six distinct pieces glued together for every shooting day, and the crew would shine harsh flashlights directly at his face before he was allowed on set, just to make sure none of the seams were visible on camera.
Robin Williams was reportedly a keen Alliance player. After his death in 2014, Blizzard added a quiet tribute on an island off the southern coast of Talador: rub the Ever-Burning Lamp there and one of his most famous characters appears.
Anyone who played the original game remembers the running gag that Ellie couldn't swim, which led to some clunky pallet-pushing puzzles. Naughty Dog leaned right into it here: swim over to a pallet by the museum and Ellie cracks a joke about Joel once having to shove her across the water like that.
Doug Cockle's performance as Geralt in Witcher 3 didn't go unnoticed by the industry. It earned him genuine critical acclaim along with multiple award nominations at major gaming awards ceremonies.
When the Gwent team needed inspiration, they didn't turn to other fantasy card games. They borrowed ideas from the tabletop games War, Netrunner, and Condottiere to figure out how cards should move and interact on the board.
