Watch Dogs 2 is now available on Xbox One, PS4 and PC in most regions across the world.
The sequel to Ubisoft's open world third person hacker/shooter title has impressed critics across the globe, and a lot of players are finding it to be a huge improvement to the original game. Watch Dogs 2 is selling well, too, and in some regions, it falls short next to Infinite Warfare in terms of units sold.
This time around, the character you'll be playing as is named Marcus Holloway - in the first Watch Dogs game players found themselves in the shoes of Aiden Pierce. Marcus has a number of different traits that make him stand out when compared to Pierce, namely his agility and physical flexibility.
Marcus Holloway has a better grip with hand to hand combat and his parkour skills are on another level, which makes traversing practically any object in Watch Dogs 2 a lot of fun. Holloway's agility also helps him to remain quieter when needed and stealth is a part of gameplay that

Killing Floor 2 has finally left early access on PC and that means it's coming to Steam and the PS4 as a full release title.
If you're unfamiliar with the franchise, Killing Floor is a zombie shoot 'em up title that's gory, violent and filled with fast-paced action. The most fun you'll get out of Killing Floor 2 is within the round based survival mode - you'll need to survive for as long as possible, using whatever weapons you can get your hands on. Think of Black Ops Zombies but with much, much more blood.
Killing Floor 2 is also a great co-op game to play with friends and it'll certainly make a night-in more interesting than ever before.
The trailer showcases assault rifles, flamethrowers, shotguns and all sorts of other weapons in the player's hands as he and his team of friends group up to take down an onslaught of zombies, and other undead creatures.
Killing Floor 2 has received a very positive rating from players and critics so far, with a 77/100 metascore

Players can also do objectives to earn the respect of the biker gang president. By doing objectives, players will rise up the ranks and new rewards will be made available.
A new vehicle, called the Western Rat Bike, will be added to the game,

A Major PlayStation 4 system update has just launched and should be rolling out to all regions that support the PS4 as we speak. The new PS4 update brings a number of changes to the user interface that many PlayStation owners will be happy to find out about.
Firstly, a more refined experience has been added to the main UI with thanks to new system backgrounds, updated system icons and revised pop up notifications and drop down menus to make it easier to navigate through everything.
Another great change is the adjustments made to the Quick Menu. The new Quick Menu will now no longer take up the entirety of the screen, which means you can still pay attention to what's happening in your game or on your PS4 system and still access the Quick Menu at the same time.
The Quick Menu also has an improved music player app - you can now quickly skip songs and change music via the USB music player or Spotify app. Sony has also attempted to make it so that the Quick Menu options

PS4 owners have been getting a lot of exclusive sneak peaks at Resident Evil 7 recently, and a new update on the PSN store suggests that they'll be getting even more Resident Evil 7 first looks soon.
In a new PlayStation blog post, Capcom's social media specialist Kellen Haney wrote the following,
"Hello again PlayStation fans!

Now we're back with an exciting and disturbing new trailer, news about the RE7 Teaser: Beginning Hour demo, and more!"
The biggest news to hit from the new blog post is that the Resident Evil 7 demo has been updated with new content and it will now be available to all PlayStation 4 owners, even those that do not have a PS Plus subscription. Here's what Haney had to say about it:

Whilst Battlefield 1 is just around the corner, DICE is still pushing out small updates to Battlefield 4. If you're playing Battlefield 4 still, you may be quite excited to know that a brand new user interface is coming to the game. The new update doesn't include any new content, but it does add a new centralized multiplayer interface for both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
The main feature added to the new interface is to allow players to switch between Battlefield games easily. The interface will allow Battlefield 4 players to switch to Battlefield 1 once it has been released, as long as they own Battlefield 1 and have downloaded it to their system. The idea for the interface is quite unique, and it's not something we often see from game franchises that often.
For now, the interface does not add much more functionality to Battlefield 4, although the interface is a lot tidier now and it is certainly easier to navigate, even if you only ever plan to use it for Battlefield

Dark Souls 3 will be getting it is first DLC on October 25. The DLC will be coming to the PlayStation 4 first and has been named Ashes of Ariandel.
As you'd expect from a game as epic as Dark Souls 3, the upcoming DLC isn't going to come without a lot of content to get players excited about. Unfortunately we aren't too sure what the content will be just yet. In fact, the announcement for the DLC was only posted on Twitter briefly before it was removed again.
The announcement did, however, mention that a trailer for the upcoming DLC was planned and we are expecting to see it make ripples across the internet very soon. Past rumors have suggested that the first DLC expansion for Dark Souls 3 will include a major content drop and could feature new maps, weapons, armor sets and additional bosses and enemies.
We also know that the Ashes of Ariandel will be the first of two DLC packs for Dark Souls 3 and the second will be available next year. Both packs are available for

The Eclipse DLC for Black Ops 3 that originally landed on PlayStation 4 a month ago has finally made it's way to the Xbox One and the PC. The new Eclipse DLC is the second of a series of content packs for Black Ops 3 and it includes a number of new features and maps for the game.
Whilst the content has already been available on the PlayStation 4 due to an exclusivity deal with Sony, this is the first time players on the Xbox One and the PC will have access to the content. In total, the new Black Ops 3 DLC pack includes four new multiplayer maps as well as a new Zombies campaign.
Out of the four maps, three of them have been created from the ground up whilst the fourth, Verge, has been based upon Bonzai, one of the most popular maps from Call of Duty: World at War.
Verge was previously described as a 're-imagination of the classic Call of Duty: World at War map, Banzai. Verge drops Multiplayer combat into the center of a distant post-apocalyptic future, where two warring

The debut DLC for Fallout 4 is now available. Named Automatron, the first DLC comes as part of the $50 season pass but it can also be picked up for $10 as standalone content. The DLC features a new set of quests that put the player against a mysterious character named the Mechanist. Players will be forced to fight against all sorts of aggressive robots and they'll also have the pleasure of taking down Robobrain, a robot boss character.
As you take down more robots throughout the Automatron quest line, you'll unlock new items that you'll be able to use to build your very own robot. There are apparently dozens of different limbs, armor pieces, paint jobs, voices, weaponry and ability mods to choose from, allowing you to create your very own unique robot companion.
Hopefully the content in Automatron will last most players throughout the rest of March because the second DLC, which is named Wasteland Workshop, will be available at some point in April. The third DLC will also be
