  1. EA Confirms Iron Man Leaked Trailer Is Real

    It’s a crazy time for leaks. While The GTA 6 leaks appear to be winding down due to Cyberleek potentially bailing with the money, another interesting leak popped up: an internal trailer for Iron Man from Motive and EA.

    Before we dive into the details of the trailer, the most interesting aspect of this story is that we know the trailer is real because in a surprising move EA themselves confirmed it.

    https://twitter.com/ironmangame/status/2093430802004512918?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2093430802004512918%7Ctwgr%5Ebe62d41048446043d813c7c4e21a4cc7bcb0b377%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.videogameschronicle.com%2Fnews%2Fea-confirms-leaked-iron-man-game-footage-is-real%2F

    “Well, that didn’t go as planned. But now you know, and we’ve got a lot more to show you. See you when we’re ready,” said a new official EA Iron Man account on social media.

    The trailer, which I can’t post here for obvious reasons, is about two and a half minutes long and is watermarked as being from August 26 of this year. It’s clearly unfinished – lots of placeholder models, faceless NPCs, missing animations etc. But what’s there is actually quite promising.

    The highlight was the flying. We get to see Iron Man jetting around an unknown city and it appears to be completely free flight, so not like a pre-programed sequence or anything, and it looks awesome. Reminds me a lot of Anthem’s flying mechanics, actually.

    We get to see the suit hovering, using missiles and repulsors blasts etc. And some decent looking melee combat, including grabbing enemies and slamming them into the scenery.

    There seems to be different armours to wear, and customisation options, too. Hopefully we can piece together our own Iron Man suits.

    Pepper Potts and Rhodes both make appearences, along with a few other notable characters.

    There’s also a cool section involving flying around a massive SHIELD helicarrier. Aeriel combat looks to be a big part of the game.

    All in all, I’m actually impressed. This could be a fun Iron Man game. Sure, it’s a little late to the part since Iron Man’s MCU peak was years ago, but better late than never, and the character is practically perfect for a videogame.

    We’ve actually known about this new Iron Man game fo a while. Rumours were circulating prior to 2022 before it was then officially announced as in development at Motive, alongside 2 other Marvel projects. One of those projects – Black Panther – was cancelled in 2025 when EA shut the developer down.

    In late 2022, Motive confirmed Iron Man was in pre-production. Then in October of 2023 after shipping Dead Space, Motive again said the game was in early pre-production. That muddies the water in terms of what stage of development Iron Man is at, and when we can realistically expect it to launch.

    Assuming the trailer is indeed from August 26 of this year, there’s still a good chunk of work to be done, so I’m thinking it might not be ready to go until late 2027/early 2028. But that’s a massive guess on my part.

    Amusingly, this isn’t even the first Iron Man leak this week. Around 97 minutes of footage from Avalanche Studios’ long-cancelled Iron Man game surfaced online just a few days ago, showing the Just Cause developer’s take on an open-world Tony Stark adventure. That project was being developed for the PS3/Xbox 360 era before being cancelled around 2012, and is completely unrelated to Motive’s current game.

  6. From a scientific perspective, probably the main problem with religious people is they usually take their traditions at face value. They rarely know the identities, social contexts, or motives of scriptures' authors, or the historical layers of texts presented as unified texts or collections.

  16. A quotation from Brennan Manning

    The noonday devil of the Christian life is the temptation to lose the inner self while preserving the shell of edifying behavior. Suddenly I discover that I am ministering to AIDS victims to enhance my resume. I find I renounced ice cream for Lent to lose five excess pounds. I drop hints about the absolute priority of meditation and contemplation to create the impression that I am a man of prayer. At some unremembered moment I have lost the connection between internal purity of heart and external works of piety. In the most humiliating sense of the word, I have become a legalist. I have fallen victim to what T.S. Eliot calls the greatest sin: to do the right thing for the wrong reason.

    Brennan Manning (1934-2013) American author, laicized priest, theologian, speaker [Richard Francis Xavier Manning]
    The Ragamuffin Gospel, ch. 7 “Paste Jewelry and Sawdust Hot Dogs” (1990)

  30. Weekly output: AI compliance risks, Mint Mobile bundle, AI vulnerability detection, AI driving logistics, Al Gore on AI

    I was in the Bay Area for work this week… and I’ll be back there starting Tuesday for NTT Research’s Upgrade conference (as like last year, the organizers are covering my travel expenses). I did not set out to spend this much of April propping up commercial aviation, but once again multiple travel opportunities lined up.

    Patreon readers got a bonus post from me Thursday about one of those trips: my brief visit to Chicago for the Online News Association’s conference.

    If you’re reading this somewhere near Fairfax County, you can quiz me in person Saturday afternoon at a joint meeting of the Potomac Area Technology and Computer Society and the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute’s Personal Computer User Group. I will be showing up with a bag of tech-event swag that I don’t plan on driving home with.

    4/7/2026: Building for Security, Compliance, and Real-World Risk, HumanX

    My first panel at this year’s edition of the AI conference that took me to Vegas last March had me quizzing Spencer Schaefer, founder and CTO of the healthcare-delivery firm Lunar Analytics; Galina Antova, CEO of the information-security startup Kai; and Campbell Brown, co-founder and CEO of the AI-evaluation company Forum AI, about how their companies are leveraging AI in ways that they hope will not lead to hostile headlines.

    4/7/2026: Mint Mobile Launches $45 Bundle of Home and Mobile 5G Broadband, PCMag

    I had just enough free time at HumanX to pick up this story about T-Mobile’s most popular prepaid brand offering a bundle of fixed and mobile 5G for much less than what T-Mobile charges.

    4/8/2026: Anthropic: Our New Model Is So Powerful, Only a Few Partners Can Try It Out, PCMag

    After seeing that my colleague James Peckham was writing about Anthropic’s automated vulnerability-finding model Mythos, I contributed a writeup from a talk that old-head security expert Alex Stamos had given the day before at HumanX about “the coming AI bug-pocalypse.”

    4/8/2026: The AI Engines Driving the Future of Logistics, HumanX

    My second HumanX panel featured one person I’d already interviewed (Aurora Innovation president Ossa Fischer, whom I talked to at Web Summit Vancouver last year for a Fast Company story) and one I did not meet IRL until backstage (Shoaib Makani, CEO and co-founder of Motive).

    4/9/2026: Former VP Al Gore: AI Models Are Probably Aware of Their Existence, PCMag

    For the second year in a row, HumanX’s opening-night programming featured a former vice president who had been unable to win a promotion from American voters. Seeing Gore get all wonky in front of this tech crowd reminded me of what I liked about him in 2000… and what George W. Bush was able to run against with a plainspoken approach that hid how bad he would prove at so many tasks.
