| Spider-Man: Miles Morales Gets New, Free Advanced Tech Suit In Latest Patch Posted: 30 Mar 2021 08:44 AM PDT Spider-Man: Miles Morales developer Insomniac Games has revealed a brand-new suit for PS4 and PS5 players to equip, which is included in an update that is out now. The Advanced Tech Suit equips Miles with an incredibly shiny and futuristic look, like that of Peter Parker's in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The colors represent the familiar black and red stylings of Miles' signature look, while also looking like it could have come out of a Tony Stark lab. Check it out below.  Gallery The new suit comes to the game alongside a new update, which Insomniac says addresses some lingering issues across both platforms. Exclusive to PS5 players, however, is a new graphical feature that will allow for accurate muscle deformation of specific suits. The exact ones weren't shared, which might give you an excuse to try out even more of your favorites beyond the new Advanced Tech Suit to see it in action. Continue Reading at GameSpot |
| Animal Crossing NookLink Phone App Update Now Live, Adds New Game Items Posted: 30 Mar 2021 08:25 AM PDT Nintendo has rolled out its latest update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons' companion service, NookLink. As previously announced, this update adds a new feature to the smartphone app: the ability to earn Nook Points, which can then be redeemed for exclusive items. Following the update, you can now receive 10 Nook Points each day by opening the app daily and tapping on the new Nook Points icon. These points can be redeemed within the app for a handful of brand-new items, which you will then receive in your game. The items include photos of Tom Nook, Isabelle, and Timmy and Tommy, as well as a Nook Link doorplate and poster. The full list of items and how much Nook Points each costs can be seen below:
On top of that, Katrina the fortune-teller will impart some "words of wisdom" each day you claim Nook Points. Katrina herself has yet to make an appearance in New Horizons, so this currently the only way to receive one of her famously profound fortunes. Continue Reading at GameSpot |
| Cyberpunk 2077 Dev Acquires Co-Developer Digital Scapes To Create Its First Canadian Studio Posted: 30 Mar 2021 08:23 AM PDT CD Projekt Red will acquire the Canadian studio Digital Scapes, which assisted the Polish developer on Cyberpunk 2077. In its announcement of the deal, CD Projekt Red said it had been working with the Vancouver-based Digital Scapes for three years already. In acquiring Digital Scapes, CD Projekt Red is creating a third studio that will be henceforth known as CD Projekt Red Vancouver. It joins the studio's main teams in Krakow and Wroclaw Poland, and all three will work together on the company's upcoming games. "For three years we have been closely working together, and we trust them completely. Digital Scapes have put in a great deal of work during the making of Cyberpunk 2077, assisting with development of the game and optimizing its various features," CD Projekt Red head of production and CTO Paweł Zawodny said. "In addition to contributing to our projects the new team will help us perfect our technologies and will broaden our competences in this respect. "We believe that the hugely talented Digital Scapes crew is the perfect foundation upon which to build a wider CD Projekt Red Vancouver team." Continue Reading at GameSpot |

| Xbox Games With Gold For April 2021 Revealed Posted: 30 Mar 2021 08:03 AM PDT April is nearly upon us, and that means Xbox Live Gold subscribers, including Game Pass Ultimate members, are getting a new batch of free games very soon. Microsoft has now announced the full lineup, and they include Vikings: Wolves of Midgard and Truck Racing Championship for newer titles. Additionally, games that released on the Xbox 360, including Dark Void and Hard Corps: Uprising, are on the way. Vikings: Wolves of Midgard, which was originally released in 2017, takes players to the mythological world of Midgard, where they fight against Jotan and other creatures of Ragnarok. The other current-gen freebie, Truck Racing Championship, came out in 2019. Like its name suggests, it is a big-rig racing game featuring 45 vehicles and 14 circuits. April's other free Games With Gold titles include Dark Void, an Xbox 360 game that originally released in 2010. Players can fight against hostile aliens on the ground or in the air with a special jetpack feature. The fourth and final freebie for April is Hard Corps: Uprising, the 2011 run-and-gun action game set in the Contra universe. Continue Reading at GameSpot |

| Summer Games Done Quick Will Be Online-Only Again In July Posted: 30 Mar 2021 07:36 AM PDT Much like last year's show, the 2021 edition of Summer Games Done Quick will be an online-only event that will be held from July 4-11. An annual week-long showcase where the goal is to complete games as quickly and as skillfully as possible, SGDQ also uses its platform to raise money for charities around the world, which has included Doctors Without Borders, Prevent Cancer Foundation, Direct Relief, AbleGamers, Malala Fund, and the Organization for Autism Research over the years. Since starting in 2010, $31 million has been raised for these organizations. This year's event will be broadcast live on Games Done Quick's official Twitch channel, with additional details on charity beneficiaries, the full games list, and the schedule being announced at a later date.

| Rick And Morty Season 5 Premiere Date Confirmed With New Trailer Posted: 30 Mar 2021 07:28 AM PDT After what felt like an untenable wait, Adult Swim has announced that Rick and Morty will be returning for Season 5 on June 20 at 11 PM. The announcement was made with a trailer uploaded to YouTube, captioned with the tongue-in-cheek suggestion that fans "can start asking us about Season 6." Check out the trailer below. Beyond the excitement above, the show also last year shared an animatic of a Season 5 scene, which together can hopefully help tide you over until June. Season 4 began airing way back in November 2019, which of course means the show's subsequent production--just like everyone and everything else on the planet--had to adapt to the pandemic. Even though it's been a lengthy delay to this point, last fall, the show's co-creator Dan Harmon said during a virtual panel that, "We're more on schedule than we've ever been… It kind of makes you have to focus on the whole process when you don't have this office environment anymore." Harmon wasn't kidding--he also added that the show's team is "very late into the process of writing Season 6." Continue Reading at GameSpot |
| Bang & Olufsen's New $500 Xbox Headset Has Lambskin And Other High-End Features Posted: 30 Mar 2021 07:14 AM PDT Microsoft has announced a partnership with the high-end headphone company Bang & Olufsen for a new "designed-for-Xbox" headset that carries a premium price tag.

The headphones will work with any audio input, but they also have a range of gaming-specific features.

| Marvel's Avengers Costumes Based On MCU Will Be Sold Exclusively Through Credits Posted: 30 Mar 2021 07:08 AM PDT A set of Marvel's Avengers costumes inspired by the Marvel Cinematic Universe will only be obtainable by purchasing them in the marketplace using credits. The game's social media clarified how you'll obtain the digital goods after a vaguely-worded tweet led some fans to believe that the new costumes would be freebies. The initial post promised "rewards like animated nameplates, outfits inspired by the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a deadly HARM Room hacked by Yelena Belova," as part of the Red Room Takeover event. That event will be free, and the animated nameplates will be free rewards, so some fans read that to mean the outfits would be free rewards too. The social media account replied to the tweet to clarify.
We haven't seen the MCU-inspired outfits yet, but they'll likely be among the most sought-after cosmetics yet given their ties to a multi-billion dollar film franchise. In fact, when Square Enix first debuted Marvel's Avengers, much of the feedback revolved around the characters looking not-quite-like their film counterparts. Continue Reading at GameSpot |
| GameStop Hires A "Growth" Officer To Help Transform The Company Posted: 30 Mar 2021 06:47 AM PDT GameStop is in the news again, as the video game retailer has announced the hiring of a former Amazon executive to become the "Chief Growth Officer" for the store.

Wilke will also help expand GameStop's use of "customer insights and metrics" to help further expand the company's marketing efforts. Continue Reading at GameSpot |
| Spiral: From The Book Of Saw Gets Trapped-Filled New Trailer Posted: 30 Mar 2021 06:47 AM PDT The new trailer for Spiral: From the Book of Saw is here. The latest movie in the long-running Saw franchise hits theaters on May 14. The film stars Chris Rock as Ezekiel Banks, a cop who is investigating a killer seemingly inspired by the notorious but very-dead trap-setting maniac Jigsaw. The new killer is leaving the distinctive spiral shape to mark his crimes--and Ezekiel's former cop dad (Samuel L. Jackson) might be involved somehow. The trailer suggests the movie will combine the inventively nasty horror of the previous films with a Seven-style cop thriller--check it out below: Spiral: From the Book of Saw also stars Max Minghella (The Handmaid's Tale), Zoie Palmer (Dark Matter), and Marisol Nichols (Riverdale). It's directed by Darren Lynn Bousman, who previously helmed Saw II, III, and IV. Continue Reading at GameSpot |
| The Pokemon Company Announces Preschool Learning Books Posted: 30 Mar 2021 06:32 AM PDT The Pokemon Company has announced a new series of books aimed at teaching preschool-age children early learning concepts like the alphabet, numbers, shapes, and colors. Two of the "Pokemon Primers" are now available, with two more to come. Starting today, you can find Pokemon Primers: ABC and Pokemon Primers: 123. The announcement includes a few sample pages, where kids can count four Pokemon or five Squirtles (which officially makes a squad). Each book promises more than 100 little flaps to open, because small children love little flaps. Each of the board books costs $13. Two more books, Pokemon Primers: Colors and Pokemon Primers: Shapes, are available to preorder as well. Of course, the books also aim to familiarize young readers (and their parents) with Pokemon as well. Along with the usual learning tools like letters and shapes, each book includes a pronunciation guide for every Pokemon cited. They are Pokemon Primers, after all. Continue Reading at GameSpot |
| Hitman 3 March Patch Notes: New Update Prepares The Game For The Season Of Greed Posted: 30 Mar 2021 06:31 AM PDT IO Interactive has announced a new patch for Hitman 3, which prepares the game for its upcoming DLC campaign and fixes several bugs along the way. Measuring in at around 3.5 GB in size on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox platforms, no download is required for people playing the cloud version on Stadia and Nintendo Switch. Version 3.20 of Hitman 3 invites players to Dubai to indulge in a new three-stage Escalation: The Greed Enumeration and unlock sin-themed rewards as part of the first act in the Seven Deadly Sins expansion.

A new Elusive Target will be available to stalk in the Dartmoor level until April 9, and if you're interested to see just how perfectly IO Interactive has executed its vision for the final chapter in Hitman's world of assassination trilogy, then you can try a section of the game out for free in a starter pack. The Hitman 3 Starter Pack will unlock the opulent Dubai opening level for free, but it'll only be available until April 5. Continue Reading at GameSpot |
