Like pretty much every film due for release in 2020, Free Guy has had a bit of a rough ride. The film, set inside a video game, has been pushed back several times, but was finally released this week. And to mark the occasion, a bunch of new posters have been revealed – much to the delight of gamers.

From GTA to Super Mario 64, the posters riff on various famous video game covers, placing Ryan Reynolds and the rest of the film's cast in all manner of famous pixellated and illustrated scenes. And like all the best print ads, they're guaranteed to make you double-take.
