The game is now aiming for a 11th October 2022 release. The news was shared on the official Twitter account with a statement. “We have made the decision to move the release date of Forspoken to October 11, 2022,” it read. “Our vision for this exciting new IP is to deliver a game world and hero that gamers across the globe will want to experience for years to come, so getting it right is extremely important to us....
Such as the past few weeks, the first quest in this set involves using one of the payphones across the Fortnite map, and it’s followed with the task to equip a Detector, then disable an Alien Billboard in one match, as well as collect resources in Holly Hatchery and eliminate Trespassers. This is a rather straightforward challenge, but only if you know exactly where to look beforehand. You only need to place one Bioscanner, thankfully, so it won’t take too long to complete by following our guide....
The now abandoned Authority is slowly falling into ruin and, amongst the remaining chests, this former spy headquarters is becoming infested with spiders. It’s time to clean the place up a bit and destroy some cobwebs! Completing this challenge will earn you 25,000 XP, which will help you unlock the new Season 4 Battle Pass skins. Note this particular challenge is no longer able to be completed. What’s new? Chapter 3 Season 3 has arrived!...
Following on from challenges which saw you deal explosive damage, collect spray cans and destroy equipment at satellite stations, this final step has you search for a graffiti-covered wall at Hydro 16 or near Catty Corner. Only one is required, so it shouldn’t take you long - provided you know where to look, of course. Completing this Fortnite challenge will help you level up, so you can earn more Battle Stars for unlocking the Season 7 Battle Pass skins....
To reach this challenge, you must first open a mission kit and place a jammer outside the IO base in one match, leave secret documents at a bus stop and talk with either Joey, Sunny or Dreamflower. Completing this challenge will reward you with 30k XP, which will help you unlock more Battle Stars for the Season 7 battle pass. With this completed, you can now deploy pallets with Cat Food around the IO base....

Completing this challenge will reward you with a good amount of XP, which will bring you closer to unlocking the new Battle Pass skins.

The toothy extra-terrestrial trophy hunter is the latest crossover, and looks set to become free for current battle pass holders over the past few weeks. Today’s 15.20 update brought the first Predator-themed challenges to the game, which unlock Predator cosmetic items in the game’s “secret” battle pass character tab. You can now unlock a few of these, though the actual Predator skin itself will take a few more weeks to arrive....
To presumably celebrate the game’s genuinely very enjoyable alien season, you can now purchase Will Smith in Fortnite. The only downside? He’s called Mike Lowery, and this is Will Smith’s character from the decidedly non-alien focused Bad Boys trilogy. Digital rights weirdness aside, Smith’s arrival in Fortnite comes after a series of high profile stars arrived via the game’s Icon Series as themselves: Ariana Grande, J Balvin and LeBron James....
Fortnite Crew, which costs £9.99 a month here in the UK and $11.99 in the US, offers a 1000 V-Buck stipend and exclusive skin pack every calendar month, as well as unlocking the current battle pass. “It’s been great seeing players jump in with new Outfits like Galaxia and Green Arrow, and we’re working to make your subscription an even better experience month in and month out,” Epic Games said in a blog posted last night....
It’s hard to touch something if you don’t know where it is, so, before starting this quest, you should know the cube locations. First, however, make sure you’ve found the scrolls in the IO Bases and recovered the Spirit Vessel using a Shadow Stone. Completing this quest for the first time will reward you with 30k XP, which will help you unlock more Battle Stars for the Season 8 Battle Pass, and, if you decide to repeat it, you’ll receive a small amount of XP....
The sequence sees the player air-dropped from a cargo plane, by parachute, in a series of signature cars, all over the game’s Mexico map. First up is a 2021 Ford Bronco Badlands, a rugged, retro-styled SUV that is dropped right next to a smouldering volcano crater, dusted with snow. It’s winter up here, but a vertiginous descent takes us down into a baking desert and a brief glimpse of a Baja rallying circuit....
The first big releases of the year helped set the tone for what would follow. Elden Ring swallowed up most of the gamers I knew, and went on to spit them out triumphant heroes, reshaped by hundreds of hours of sheer adversity. Sifu did something similar by reforging its players with an onslaught of fists, bottles and sticks. We all grieve differently, however, and it was actually Nintendo’s pinkest and roundest mascot that ended up giving me the hope I needed to push on with the rest of the year....
What are we going to see? Well, Geoff Keighley! And he’s promised a bumper load of world premiere trailers for games such as Return to Monkey Island, The Expanse: Telltale Series, The Callisto Protocol and “more than a dozen” more. I wonder if any of those will have dates on? We’ve also had a leak or two already. A new trailer for Sonic Frontiers popped up this morning before being hastily pulled down again, but not before the internet caught the 8th November release date....
Zenless Zone Zero is an action role-playing game from HoYoverse (which manages all of miHoYo’s global operations outside of China). HoYoverse describe it as an urban fantasy title and an “attempt to further explore action-oriented gameplay”. The fast-paced trailer, below, introduces a number of anime characters who take on enemies in stylish combat. Zenless Zone Zero is set in New Eridu, a post-apocalyptic shelter for humanity following some kind of calamity....
In the patch notes for Patch 2.18 - or 2.018.000 as it’s known on PS5 - for Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut and the Legends standalone, the team confirms that the update “focuses on Legends items changes, bug fixes, and improvements as well as small single-player changes”. However, at the end of the update, the team confirmed that there are no additional patches planned “at the moment”, and thanked players for “the incredible amount of support and feedback” it has received....
The project will ensure the reconstruction of the Torii gate at Tsushima’s Watatsumi Shrine, which was destroyed by a typhoon in September last year. The structure currently lies in pieces, half-submerged in water (thanks, Siliconera). Crowdfunding began in November via Camp-Fire, a Japanese alternative to Kickstarter. Quickly, the cause was noticed and picked up by Ghost of Tsushima fans - who have been thanked by the project’s founders. Now, restoration of the Torii gate will be ensured - alongside a fresh stone monument nearby which will list the names of anyone who donated more than 10k yen (£71)....
“If it were up to me, I would share all the information when I know about it. But it is not up to me,” he tweeted (with a mellow looking Baby Yoda to accompany his message). “So please, be patient. I promise things will be shared at the earliest possible moment they can be. We make games for you. We get to make games because of you.” Barlog’s message comes following rumblings that we would all be hearing more about Ragnarök (for which Barlog is acting as a producer for) sometime today....
According to charts firm GfK, the game’s day one physical sales in the UK were greater than “any other full-week launch sales for other titles in this franchise”. Speaking to GameIndustry.biz, GfK boss Dorian Bloch stated “God of War Ragnarök will debut at No.1” on next week’s sales charts, while noting it is the “first cross-gen title in the series”. Considering digital downloads are not included in this statement from GfK, God of War Ragnarök looks on course to be one of the best performing first party Sony games....
A transmog system allows players to change the visual aspect of their gear to that of another, while maintaining the stats of the original piece. In a recent developer Q&A on the official Discord server, Sony Santa Monica’s lead combat designer Mihir Sheth confirmed the game’s transmog system. When asked if it was going to be an option by one fashion conscious fan, Sheth replied: “The short answer is yes....
