A brand new Resident Evil 7 DLC pack is now available on the PlayStation 4.
After the launch on January 24, Resident Evil 7 has already received its second DLC expansion. This new expansion has been named Banned Footage Vol. 2 and it follows the first Banned Footage volume. The new DLC includes 2 missions and a new 'comical' game mode.
The first new mission in the new Resident Evil 7 DLC is called 21 Scenario, which Capcom has provided a small description for. "Gamble life and limb in a deadly game run by Lucas Baker."
The second mission in the new DLC is called Daughters Scenario and this serves as a prequel to the storyline in the missions in the base game.
The new game mode that's been bundled with the DLC expansion is named Jack's 55th Birthday, in which players are tasked with feeding Jack Baker, the main villain in Resident Evil 7, with large amounts of food. It sounds odd, but it's surprisingly enjoyable and equally as hilarious.

Still not sure about whether to purchase Ghost Recons: Wildlands? An upcoming open beta will be the perfect time for you to give it a try before you buy.
There has already been a limited closed beta for Ghost Recon: Wildlands, but Ubisoft has now confirmed that an open beta will be made available to the public before the game releases.
No definitive date has been set for the open beta, but considering that the game releases on March 7, it's definitely going to be put online sometime between now and early March.
It could be possible that the open beta will be put online as close as the weekend before the game releases, as this has been a tactic used by Ubisoft in the past. While the word beta was synonymous with glitches and bugs, the open beta for Ghost Recon: Wildlands will hopefully be mostly bug-free. The servers may struggle a little bit, but this should be the perfect test for Ubisoft to ensure everything is in working order before the final release on March 7.

Thanks to the EA Access program on both the Xbox One and the Origin store on the PC, EA Access subscribers will be able to play Mass Effect Andromeda a week before launch.
It's not been confirmed yet, but it's likely that all, or if not, the majority of the title will be available during this early EA Access period. Similar to different EA Access promotions in the past, this early play time will be restricted to just 10 hours of gameplay. Players can close down their game and open it at any point to ensure they get the most out of those 10 hours.
Once the 10 hours are up, players will be locked out of playing, but they will be able to continue their progress on the full game a week later.
To make the deal sweeter, this promotion will apply to those that have not yet pre-ordered the game. This means that players with EA Access will be able to get a taste of the Mass Effect Andromeda experience before purchasing it. Once again, players who go through this route will be

Heads up everyone, Super Mario is gearing up to be a front-runner for 2016 mobile game character of the year.
While Super Mario has never left the comfort of Nintendo's consoles in the past, Mario's maker has finally wised up and have now prepared a Super Mario mobile game. The game is called Super Mario Run and we've known about it for a while now. However, today Nintendo finally revealed gameplay for Super Mario Run and we're actually quite impressed.
As long as Nintendo sticks to their previous words, Super Mario Run will be free to download, with extra content and levels which can be unlocked with a one-time purchase. Nintendo won't be using any of the terrible in-app purchase practices seen in other popular mobile games such as Clash of Clans or Clash Royale.
The game will feature the same gameplay we've learned to love from the Super Mario world - side scrolling fast paced action, plenty of levels and boss fights with Bowser. However, instead of the traditional

Rainbow Six Siege is hitting a new season, a new year, and a new season pass.
The new season pass will cost $30 and will give players upfront free access to some of the content that Ubisoft has planned for the next year. It looks as if Ubisoft are planning to make Rainbow Six Siege a long term investment - instead of developing a new Rainbow Six title, they'll put their efforts into releasing more content for Siege, and that involves lining up features to fill up the season pass offering.
The 2nd season pass will include 8 new operators which will be once again split up into groups of 2 across 4 different seasons during 2017. 8 Exclusive headgear customization options, as well as 8 new outfits, an R6 Carbon charm, and 600 R6 credits for in-game purchases will be included in the season pass as soon as a player purchases it.
Purchasing the season pass will also give players access to a range of VIP perks - these will remain active until February 2018, at which point we

If you played much of the Battlefront beta you will know straight away that the Walker Assault mode was almost impossible for the Rebels. In fact, seeing a Rebel victory was so far and few between that it made us wonder how exactly they did it in the movies. Perhaps it was to do with Luke Skywalker being more of an asset, or maybe because the T-47 airspeeder pilots were more skilled at pulling down AT-ATs than your normal everyday gamer.
Either way, the Walker Assault game mode has been adjusted slightly so that Rebels now have an easier time on the battlefield. It's not going to be a one-sided affair for the Rebels, but winning a battle on either side should now be just as easy as the other. Some more balancing may need to be done before we start to see a 50/50 win ratio for both sides though.
The changes made to Walker Assault have only been made to the walkers. Before, when a walker was open to attack, the entire Rebel team had to unload bullets into the walker for them

DayZ was originally planned for early access on the Xbox One at the end of 2015, but hiccups in the development process has pushed the Xbox One early access launch to 2016. If all goes to planned, hopefully the delay won't be that long - we are most likely looking at a quarter one release in 2016, although no date has been set in stone just yet and it is very possible that DayZ for the Xbox One could be delayed once again.
DayZ is also planned for the PlayStation 4, but no details of a release date for this have been given yet. If DayZ can’t get it’s way onto the PS4 in early access, then PS4 players may have to wait a while before the game comes out of early access and gets a full release.
Unlike early access on Steam, the early access on Xbox One offers players safer control over the games they play. The early access Xbox One program is called Xbox Game Preview, and once available later this year, will allow players to have a free trial of early access games before players
