Since its debut late last year, Fortnite: Battle Royale's X-4 Stormwing--the game's first flying vehicle--has been a source of complaints from many who feel it's overpowered. Now, with the release of the third and final content update of the 7.10 patch, Epic Games is making some changes to reduce its impact.Epic has approached this in a variety of ways, as outlined in 7.10's update #3 patch notes. Perhaps most notably, its spawn chance has been reduced--it's no longer a guaranteed 100%, instead appearing only 80% of the time.When you do encounter one, you'll receive significantly less knockback (down 70%) if a Stormwing collides with you. Meanwhile, when one hits a structure, it'll take 50% more damage. Additionally, its machine gun will now be less effective, with its spread increased by 75%.You can see the full list of Stormwing-specific changes in the patch notes excerpt below. Whether these changes are sufficient (or have even gone too far) remains to be seen, but many will likely be happy just to see Epic made some attempt to address the Stormwing's power.Besides these adjustments, the latest update introduces a new weapon, the Suppressed Sniper Rifle, which deals less damage but allows you to remain stealthy while using it. The patch also vaults the Six Shooter, meaning the weapon has been removed from the game for the time being, though it could always return in the future.All of this comes as the 14 Days of Fortnite event returns. While it was scheduled to have ended by now (and did come to a close), Epic miscommunicated the end date for the event, leading to frustration from some who missed out on the chance to complete its challenges and earn rewards.Fortnite 7.10 Patch - Content Update 3 Patch NotesStormwing ChangesThe knockback a player receives after being hit by a Stormwing has been decreased by 70%.Damage done to the Stormwing from colliding with structures has been increased by 50%.Impact damage reduction while boosting through structures reduced from 50% to 25%Increased the spread of the Stormwing machine gun by 75%.Stormwing spawn chance has been decreased to 80% from 100%.Info from Gamespot.com

Although Avengers: Infinity War was the most commercially successful superhero movie of 2018, DC's Aquaman has, in just a few weeks, become one of the biggest comic book movies of recent years. However, it seems Marvel boss Kevin Feige is totally cool with that.In a recent interview with MTV, Feige revealed that he was a DC fan and was happy about its success. "I went to see Aquaman last night and I really, really enjoyed it," he said. "I've always supported [DC movies]."In addition, Feige was asked about the fact that James Gunn, who was fired from Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, and is now working for DC. "I don't see a rivalry," he said. "I see cool films being made and one you thing you know about James Gunn, he makes cool films."Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 was set to start filming this year ahead of a 2020 release. However, Gunn's dismissal over offensive tweets he made a decade ago has led to the project being put on hold, and no replacement director has been announced so far. In October it was confirmed that Gunn is writing a Suicide Squad reboot for DC.To date, Aquaman has made more than $943 million worldwide, which makes it biggest movie in the current DC universe and third only to Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises in terms of the studio's superhero releases. There are several more DC movies in the works--Shazam! and the Joker prequel movie arrive this year, while Birds of Prey and Wonder Woman 1984 are set for release in 2020. Info from Gamespot.com

Fans of From Software and action-adventure games are likely salivating as we get closer to the launch of the studio's upcoming title, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. While the game looks to feature familiar From design, one crucial element is missing: online multiplayer. Now, in a feature published by Game Informer, the studio's explained why Sekiro won't have online multiplayer.From's marketing and communications manager, Yasuhiro Kitao, sat down with the publication to dive deep into the studio's upcoming action-adventure game. When asked why Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice won't have online multiplayer, Kitao explained it gives them the freedom to create worlds without worrying about how multiple players may interact."When creating these playspaces, we don't have to take into consideration how players will operate with one another in these maps, or how they may exploit the playspace by cooperating or something like this," Kitao said. "So it allows us, again, to hone in on the player experience, and really capitalize on that lack of restriction that comes with creating a multiplayer-based game, and let our imagination run wild in these places."While From is adamant about keeping Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice a single-player focused game, online multiplayer is something we could see from the studio again in the future. "Of course, we at From, we love those online elements," Kitao said. "We love to create our own characters just as much as everyone else. We hope players are looking forward to something in the future where we might go back to that, but for now, Sekiro is very much its own thing." The feature also revealed that, unlike the Souls games, Sekiro allows you to pause the action.Hidetaka Miyazaki, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice's director and FromSoftware's president, has confirmed that the game is "probably even more challenging than previous From games." Since the studio's games are notorious for being punishingly difficult, it can be assumed that the lack of online multiplayer will make the game even more challenging than Miyazaki told us back in June 2018.Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is scheduled to release on March 22, 2019 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.Info from Gamespot.com

Tropico 6 will not be available on PC later this month, as previously announced. In a frank message, developer Kalypso Media Group's owner, Simon Hellwig, announced a delay for the upcoming strategy game, explaining that it isn't yet great."Over the holidays, I have played Tropico 6 for many hours and really liked what I saw," he said in an open letter on Kalypso's website. "But, in my humble opinion, it is not enough to like a game--I want to love it! And Tropico 6 is good, but not very good, or outstanding. Yet."Combining my own opinion and the response we had from thousands of dedicated beta players around the world, Kalypso has decided to postpone the release of the game for another couple of months to March 29, 2019."Hellwig said the extra time will be used to introduce more requests the developer has received from the community. "But we cannot do this overnight, and want to present the best possible Tropico experience to the fans of the franchise," he said. "Features like pathfinding, a challenging multiplayer and the comprehensive simulation not only of each individual Tropican, but of the whole economy, are already implemented well, but could benefit from more balancing, testing and enhancement to meet our very high quality standards for Tropico 6."Hellwig went on to apologize to fans, though he did offer some good news to make up for the delay. Those who pre-order the game by a deadline on January 10 through certain digital platforms (including Steam and Kalypso's own store) will get the game's first DLC pack for free. That content is due out sometime in the second quarter of 2019.Tropico 6 introduces some brand-new features to the series, such as the ability to play across archipelagos; you can even connect the various islands using bridges. As seen in a previous trailer, you can also steal well-known landmarks from around the world, such as the Eiffel Tower and Statue of Liberty. In addition to the PC release now coming in March, PS4 and Xbox One versions are on the way later in the year.Info from Gamespot.com

Destiny 2's latest weekly reset includes new content, and right now, pretty much every hardcore player in the Destiny community is trying to figure out how to access it. Teams are currently investigating a new location called Niobe Labs, where they're trying to solve an involved puzzle that requires having certain weapons to find hidden symbols, which players have to shoot in a particular order to activate.Niobe Labs is set to unlock the last new activity of The Black Armory, the latest Destiny 2 expansion. That's the Bergusia Forge, the fourth and final of the Forge areas where you can craft new, powerful weapons as part of the expansion. Over the last month since the expansion launched, the community has been uncovering and solving puzzles related to the Forges, each requiring a different weapon that's become available as each new Forge has been unlocked.With the release of Niobe Labs, it seems we're dealing with the culmination of all those puzzle-solving efforts, and teams are currently standing in the special room trying to figure out what exactly they have to do in it. On Twitter, Bungie said once one team figures out Niobe Labs, the Bergusia Forge will be unlocked for the rest of the player base--kind of like what happened when new content unlocked after the first successful completion of the Last Wish Raid in the Forsaken expansion late last year.You can access Niobe Labs and try to solve it yourself if you want, although unless you're following the progress of the rest of the Destiny community on streams and Reddit, you'll probably be wasting your time. The room is located in Earth's EDZ, in the Outskirts area.As you enter the Outskirts, head south past where the Forge Saboteurs sometimes spawn and cross the bridge toward Sojourner's Camp. Pass through the camp area (you'll have visited here during Destiny 2's original story campaign) and look for a broken metal bridge at the far end. You can cross that bridge to access a gorge, which will lead you to a cave through which you can pass to access the hidden facility beyond.Streamers like Teawrex, Datto, and Professor Broman are currently broadcasting attempts at solving the puzzle, and progress is being made, at least. You can also track the progress of the efforts on the Destiny 2 subreddit. For those of us who can't add our genius to figuring out the Black Armory's final brainteaser, watching and waiting is about all there is to do.Info from Gamespot.com

HBO's Game of Thrones prequel TV show still doesn't have a proper name, but its cast is getting bigger. The show, which will star Naomi Watts and Josh Whitehouse in leading roles, has added eight more names to its roster of stars.According to The Hollywood Reporter, the newly revealed cast includes Naomi Ackie (Star Wars: Episode IX), Toby Regbo (Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald), Denise Gough (Angels in America), Ivanno Jeremiah (Black Mirror), Jamie Campbell Bower (The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn), Georgie Henley (The Chronicles of Narnia), and Alex Sharp (To the Bone). Much like everything else about the series, all character details are a tightly held secret.What we do know is that the new show is set long before the events of Game of Thrones. A logline, per THR, reads "Only one thing is for sure: From the horrifying secrets of Westeros' history to the true origin of the White Walkers, the mysteries of the East to the Starks of legend--it's not the story we think we know."George R.R. Martin, who wrote the novels the franchise is based on, teased on his blog that the prequel would be called The Long Night. He later noted that HBO says a name has not been given to the series. In Game of Thrones lore, the Long Night refers to a time roughly 8,000 years before the events of the series during the Age of Heroes. It's during this time that the White Walkers make their first appearance in Westeros in the middle of a particularly brutal winter.Directing the pilot episode for the series will be SJ Clarkson, who is also signed on to helm the next Star Trek film. Clarkson has an impressive TV resume, that includes directing episodes of Orange Is the New Black, Jessica Jones, Bates Motel, and Dexter, among others.Jane Goldman, who wrote the pilot script and collaborated with Martin on the story, will serve as showrunner on the prequel. A production start date has yet to be revealed, though THR says more casting announcements should be announced at a later date. The final season of Game of Thrones will premiere in April.

Though Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is a From Software game through and through, the studio's making sure to separate the upcoming action-adventure game from its recent titles. One way it's doing so, aside from ditching online multiplayer, is modifying how character progression works. In a feature published by Game Informer, the studio detailed the way progression works and how it differs from other games like Bloodborne and the Dark Souls series.In Sekiro, you play as a shinobi dubbed The One-Armed Wolf. Because From has created an established character, there are no customization options in regards to changing class; players start the game with a sword and will likely end the game with a sword (though secondary equipment by way of the prosthetic arm may change). With this limitation in class customization, Sekiro will feature a skill tree that allows players to unlock new moves and abilities.Players kill enemies to gain experience and collect gold; in other recent From games, experience and currency were one in the same. After killing enemies, new levels are achieved upon filling an experience bar. Once players unlock skill trees by finding particular items within the game's world, players can invest those experience points in one of three skill trees shown to Game Informer: samurai arts, a traditional warrior archetype that favors power and aggression; shinobi arts, skills focused on evasive and crowd-control maneuvers; and the prosthetic arm.As noted by From's president, Hidetaka Miyazaki, during E3 2018, Sekiro is "probably even more challenging than previous From games." As such, death will likely come swift and often. However, unlike previous From games, Sekiro won't feature the infamous corpse run. Instead, experience and gold collected during that life will stay with the player upon either restarting or resurrection. While this may seem to be a strange departure for the masters of the masochistic action game, Miyazaki told Game Informer that "death will have a detrimental effect" but didn't divulge how or in what way.Though players can use experience points to upgrade attributes and spend gold to purchase items, improving The One-Armed Wolf's other stats require more exploration. Similar to The Legend of Zelda's heart pieces, Sekiro will have prayer beads scattered throughout the world--either hidden in rooms or on enemies and mini-bosses--that increase the protagonist's health. According to From, there may also be upgrade tools for the prosthetic arm and ways to build upon the game's resurrection mechanic.With the absence of online multiplayer and honing in on a single-player experience, From says this method of character progression allows it to fine-tune the depth of individual encounters. It also allows them to focus on character progression instead of just player progression "While you are a fixed shinobi protagonist, you do feel like there's a sense of progression, there's a sense of building your own character and finding your own playstyle, and experimenting with this throughout the game," Yasuhiro Kitao, From's manager of marketing and communications, told Game Informer.Sekiro is scheduled to launch on March 22, 2019.Info from Gamespot.com

Overwatch is launching a new update that packs in a limited-time event, with some special rewards for the taking. The event is based on the new short story Bastet, which Blizzard published recently. Ana's Bastet Challenge kicks off today, January 8, and will last through January 21.During the event dates, scoring wins will earn you special new cosmetics on top of your usual rewards. You can earn a player icon (win 3 games), a victory pose (win 6 games), and an epic Bastet Ana skin (win 9 games). On top of that, watching promoted Twitch streamers during the event can net you five Ana's Bastet Challenge sprays. Check out the official blog for more details.The update also includes skins for the Overwatch League. You can snag a Hero skin for the Atlanta Reign, Chengdu Hunters, Guangzhou Charge, Hangzhou Spark, Paris Eternal, Toronto Defiant, Vancouver Titans, and Washington Justice. You can get each one for 100 OWL tokens, which includes both the home and away outfits. The 2019 season will kick off on February 14.The Bastet short story also made waves in the fan community for confirming that Soldier 76 identifies as gay, due to a revealing dialogue exchange with Ana about a past relationship. This makes him the second queer character in Overwatch fiction, in addition to Tracer.Info from Gamespot.com

Sony Interactive Entertainment has acquired Audiokinetic, the creators of Wave Works Interactive Sound Engine (Wwise). Wwise is a piece of software specifically tailored for audio design in video games and other interactive media, and it's been used by dozens of both triple-A and indie developers in hundreds of games."A rich and all-encompassing audio experience is increasingly critical to the overall gameplay experience, further enhancing immersion and emotion for the player," said Sony Interactive president and CEO John Kodera. "Audiokinetic is a preeminent provider of audio solutions for the gaming industry, and we are confident that this acquisition will allow us to further grow the PlayStation platform and contribute to the broader gaming industry."The acquisition is expected to close by the end of January, but Audiokinectic will continue to operate on its own. "It's our goal to support Audiokinetic's efforts to advance its audio technology while maintaining independence and platform neutrality," Kodera said.Wwise has been used by developers for pretty much every system platform for the past two generations, including Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, Xbox One, PS4, Wii U, Switch, PC, and mobile devices. Games that have used Wwise include several mainline Assassin's Creed games, BioShock Infinite, Rocket League, Destiny, Firewatch, Alien Isolation, Monster Hunter World, Overwatch, PUBG, Nier: Automata, and many more.Sony's PS4 had a fairly good year in 2018. The console continues to support some of the best first-party exclusives on the market--some of which are on sale right now. However, Sony made a few missteps with the console as well. The company stubbornly refused to reverse its position on cross-platform play with Xbox One and Switch until finally relenting with the success of Fortnite. PlayStation Now's potential continues to remain unfulfilled, and PlayStation Classic pales in comparison to what Nintendo delivered with its NES and SNES Classic consoles. Sony's acquisition of Audiokinectic suggests the company is looking for new avenues to improve its products, which points to a more promising future for whatever comes after PS4.Info from Gamespot.com

At CES 2019, Samsung revealed a new TV that is irresponsibly large. The television comes in at 98 inches and 8K QLED resolution, giving it more than 33 million pixels. Those who want to play Red Dead Redemption 2 with horses that appear actual size, the new model will go on sale this year.However, it may prove a difficult sell. CNET reports that Samsung's line of 8K TVs offers upscaling, but for a TV that size you'd probably want native 8K. So far most programming isn't offered at such a high resolution.Last year Samsung released the first 85-inch 8K QLED TV, which goes for a cool $15,000. No price has been given for this new 98-inch model. Samsung says sales of TVs with screens above 75 inches have more than doubled in the United States over the past year.Samsung's super-sized TV is one type of showpiece for CES, as existing technologies get bigger and better. Meanwhile we're seeing a big uptick in the development of new technologies, including displays like VR headsets. We've also seen new announcements in gaming hardware like the Mad Box console and a slate of new gaming laptops from Nvidia. You can check our full coverage of CES 2019 for more details.Info from Gamespot.com

In June 2018, From Software announced that its upcoming Souls-like action RPG, titled Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, would not have online multiplayer. The developer has now further clarified that, because Sekiro lacks this feature, it will allow you to pause your game.With the exception of Dark Souls Remastered on Switch, no From Software Soulsborne game has allowed players to pause wherever they want since Demon Souls. For anyone who might think this will make Sekiro somehow easier in comparison to Dark Souls III or Bloodborne, don't worry. Sekiro is just as hard, if not much harder, than its predecessors. In an interview with Game Informer, From Software revealed that, without the option for online play, every environment and boss has been specifically catered to providing a challenging experience for a single person."When creating these playspaces, we don't have to take into consideration how players will operate with one another in these maps, or how they may exploit the playspace by cooperating or something like this," From Software marketing and communications manager Yasuhiro Kitao said. "So it allows us, again, to hone in on the player experience, and really capitalize on that lack of restriction that comes with creating a multiplayer-based game, and let our imagination run wild in these places."Just because Sekiro is abandoning the online features of previous Soulsborne games--such as leaving notes, teaming up with other players, and invading--doesn't mean From Software is done with them entirely. "Of course, we at From, we love those online elements," Kitao said. "We love to create our own characters just as much as everyone else. We hope players are looking forward to something in the future where we might go back to that, but for now, Sekiro is very much its own thing." From Software hasn't yet announced what the future past Sekiro might be, but the company has revealed that it is already working on two unannounced games. There's a chance that one might be an Armored Core sequel.Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice releases for Xbox One, PS4, and PC on March 22. The standard version of the game releases alongside a Collector's Edition, both of which are available for pre-order.Info from Gamespot.com

You'll soon be able to buy a TV that can disappear from your living room, thanks to a new OLED TV LG is showing off at CES 2019. The rollable TV is based on a prototype the company showed off last year, and which can roll down into an unobtrusive piece of furniture when it's not being used.As GameSpot sister site CNET reported, LG intends to make the new TV, which right now is called the Signature OLED TV R, available in the second half of 2019. When off, it rolls up into what looks like a small table, and cloth covers a Dolby Atmos sound system as part of the machine. When you turn the TV on, a sliding door on top moves out of the way to allow the screen to roll up.The Signature's moving screen also supports at least one screen configuration beyond just "on" and "off." You can also set it to "line" mode, which raises part of the screen to display a home screen with information like weather and a clock, or to a 21:9 ratio mode to display ultra-widescreen movies without the letterbox bars. It can also just play music with no screen present.LG says the only version of the rolling set available this year will be a 65-inch version. It hasn't said what it'll cost--but it seems likely the Signature OLED TV R will be pretty expensive. Still, the set sounds like it impressed the folks at CNET, and could be the first step toward what your future living room could look like.There has been a lot of interesting stuff showed off at CES 2019 in Las Vegas this week, including huge new TVs from Samsung and LG, and a bunch of new virtual reality goodies from HTC.

One of the biggest games announced for 2019 is Metro Exodus, an open-world shooter that's set in post-apocalyptic Russia. The third game in the Metro series, Exodus will be enhanced for Xbox One X, featuring 4K resolution and HDR graphics. To help get players acquainted (or reacquainted) with the series, Microsoft has announced it will release the Xbox One X Metro Saga Bundle on February 15.The Xbox One X Metro Saga Bundle comes with a 1TB Xbox One X console, a controller, one-month trials for Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Live Gold, as well as digital copies of Metro 2033 Redux, Metro: Last Light Redux, and Metro Exodus. That's all you need to play through the entire Metro series from the beginning. Like most Xbox One X bundles, this one will retail for $499.Pre-order Xbox One X Metro Saga Bundle from Microsoft -- $500Pre-order Xbox One X Metro Saga Bundle from GameStop -- $500Metro 2033 is a shooter with survival elements that first launched in 2010. It was followed in 2013 by Metro: Last Light, a direct sequel. Both games were remastered for modern consoles in 2014 with the release of Metro Redux. The remastered versions are what appear in this Xbox One X bundle.Both games received high scores from GameSpot, though they're not exactly light, happy fare. In our Metro Redux review, Kevin VanOrd wrote, "In both Metro: Last Light and in the refashioned Metro 2033, there is more dread in the deafening silence than there is in the retort of a shotgun. In the metro tunnels beneath Moscow, you scavenge for ammo to use as currency as well as munitions, burn away cobwebs with your lighter, and search for gas masks that allow you to breathe the perilous air should you approach the surface." For more information about the upcoming sequel, which launches on February 15, check out what to expect from Metro Exodus.As for the Xbox One X, it's the most powerful version of Microsoft's current-gen console. It supports Ultra HD Blu-ray disc playback, 4K resolution, and HDR. For more information, read or watch our Xbox One X review.Info from Gamespot.com
