2026 has been a huge year for Prime Video, and one show that has generated more than its fair share of views was The Boys. After a two-year hiatus, The Boys returned earlier this year for its fifth and final season, and while it was a massive hit with critics, audiences weren’t as hot on the ending. Still, now that The Boys is over and its first spin-off, Gen V, has been canceled after two seasons, everyone is curious about what’s coming next for Prime Video’s superhero franchise. Mere days after The Boys series finale, Prime Video released the first trailer for the new WWII-era spin-off, Vought Rising, also confirming that it will premiere in 2027. Jensen Ackles and Aya Cash return as Soldier Boy and Clara Vought to lead the new offshoot.
However, 2026 has also brought on a new spin-off for The Boys franchise, even if we aren’t getting another season of Gen V. Developed by Arvore, The Boys: Trigger Warning is a VR game set in the same universe as the show that even features characters like Homelander, Billy Butcher, Mother’s Milk, and more. The original game launched back in March on Meta Quest 3, but it wasn’t until the launch on PlayStation VR2 last month that it came under fire from review bombers. While the game holds a mixed 6.7 rating from reviewers on Metacritic, it’s come under fire from review bombers, who have sunk its audience rating to 1.7, which falls in the “overwhelming dislike” category. Many of these 0/10 reviews contain the same phrase, which is that the game is “disrespectful to the Prophet Muhammad and offensive to millions of Muslim viewers,” leading fans to discern that it could be the same person leaving these reviews, or a coordinated effort to include the same phrases in each review.
Collider Exclusive · Sci-Fi Survival Quiz Which Sci-Fi World Would You Survive? The Matrix · Mad Max · Blade Runner · Dune · Star Wars
Five universes. Five completely different ways the future went wrong — or sideways, or up in flames. Only one of them is the world your instincts were built for. Eight questions will figure out which dystopia, galaxy, or desert wasteland you’d actually make it out of alive.
💊The Matrix
🔥Mad Max
🌧️Blade Runner
🏜️Dune
🚀Star Wars
01
You sense something is deeply wrong with the world around you. What do you do? The first instinct is often the truest one.
02
In a world of scarcity, what resource do you guard most fiercely? What we protect reveals what we believe survival actually requires.
03
What kind of threat keeps you up at night? Fear is useful data — if you’re honest about what you’re actually afraid of.
04
How do you deal with authority you don’t trust? Every dystopia has a power structure. Your approach to it determines everything.
05
Which environment could you actually endure long-term? Survival isn’t just tactical — it’s physical, psychological, and very much about where you are.
06
Who do you want in your corner when things fall apart? The company you keep is the clearest signal of who you actually are.
07
Where do you draw the line — if you draw one at all? Every survivor eventually faces a moment that tests what they’re actually made of.
08
What would actually make survival worth it? Staying alive is one thing. Having a reason to is another.
Your Fate Has Been Calculated You’d Survive In…
Your answers point to the world your instincts were built for. This is the universe your temperament, your survival instincts, and your particular brand of stubbornness were made for.
The Resistance, Zion
The Matrix
You took the red pill a long time ago — probably before anyone offered it to you. You’re a systems thinker who can’t help but notice the seams in things.
You’re drawn to understanding how the system works before figuring out how to break it.
You’d find the Resistance, or it would find you — your instinct for spotting constructed realities is the machines’ worst nightmare.
You function best when you have access to information and the freedom to act on it.
The Matrix built an airtight prison. You’d be the one probing the walls for the door.
The Wasteland
Mad Max
The wasteland doesn’t reward the clever or the well-connected — it rewards those who are hard to kill and harder to break. That’s you.
You don’t need comfort, community, or a cause larger than the next horizon.
You need a vehicle, a clear threat, and enough fuel to outrun it — and you’re good at all three.
You are unsentimental enough to survive that world, and decent enough — just barely — to be something more than another raider.
In the wasteland, that distinction is everything.
Los Angeles, 2049
Blade Runner
You’d survive here because you know how to exist in moral grey areas without losing yourself completely.
You read people accurately, keep your circle small, and ask the questions others prefer not to answer.
In a city where humanity is a legal designation rather than a feeling, you hold onto something that keeps you functional.
You’re not a hero. But you’re not lost, either.
In Blade Runner’s world, that distinction is everything.
Arrakis
Dune
Arrakis is the most hostile environment in the known universe — and you are precisely the kind of person it rewards.
Patience, discipline, and political awareness are your core strengths — and on Arrakis, they’re survival tools.
You understand that the long game matters more than any single victory.
Others come to Dune and are consumed by it. You’d learn its logic and earn its respect.
In time, you wouldn’t just survive Arrakis — you’d begin to reshape it.
A Galaxy Far, Far Away
Star Wars
The galaxy far, far away is vast, loud, and in a constant state of violent political upheaval — and you wouldn’t have it any other way.
You find meaning in being part of something larger than yourself — a cause, a crew, a rebellion.
You’d gravitate toward the Rebellion, or the fringes, or whatever pocket of the galaxy still believes the Empire’s grip can be broken.
You fight — not because you have to, but because standing aside isn’t something you’re capable of.
In Star Wars, that willingness is what makes all the difference.
Why Was ‘Gen V’ Canceled?
When reports came out that Gen V had been canceled at Prime Video after only two seasons, there were no reasons cited about why the studio was not moving forward with another season of the show. Around the time the show was canceled, The Boys creator Eric Kripke assured that there were bigger plans for the characters in the future, though most would have liked to see them have a bigger role in The Boys Season 5. With Vought Rising the only Boys show on the horizon, and it being set years in the past, it’s unclear when or even if we’ll see the characters from Gen V again, barring any sort of time travel.
