Dying Light: Bad Blood has just launched as a brand new battle royale game based in the Dying Light universe.

Bad Blood actually uses the same world and game elements from the first Dying Light game, so it’s more like a standalone expansion than a full new experience.

Right now, it’s available to purchase under early access, but soon it should be available for everybody to play for free.

You’re probably sick and tired of seeing new battle royale games, but you might want to give Bad Blood a try because it’s a vastly different experience.

In Bad Blood, there are only twelve players per map. Players must focus on collecting blood samples as they fight zombies and collect better loot.

As you collect blood samples, you’ll inevitably come across other players and may need to fight them to the death. Not long after the game starts, a helicopter will land down and all remaining players will need to rush to the helicopter to be picked up.

State of Decay 2 has just received a brand new DLC expansion. This new expansion adds a brand new game mode called Daybreak.

Daybreak is essentially a co-op zombie defense game mode. In Daybreak, up to four players must work together as they play elite soldiers equipped with high tier weapons.

Players must defend against waves of zombies as they wait for a technician to repair a satellite relay. That's not so important, but it provides a platform for the wave based chaos to be born upon.

There are a total of seven waves in each match of Daybreak. As you progress through each wave, the zombies become tougher and more numerous.

On top of the new Daybreak mode, a new zombie has been added. It's called the blood plague juggernaut. As the name suggests, this thing is huge. If you get hit by this thing, you'll be infected with the blood plague. More hits will make your infection meter rise quickly.

The new DLC also adds six new melee weapons, nine new ranged

If you play Fortnite on the PS4, you might want to make sure your PS Plus membership is up to date. Sony and Epic Games have teamed up again to offer more free Fortnite loot for PS Plus members.

The new loot includes a brand new glider, a new pickaxe, and a new trail. Admittedly, the glider is quite simple, but it's a nice thank you to the PlayStation players, regardless.

The glider you get from the new PS Plus subscription freebie can be seen in the image above.

The other two items are far more exciting. The first of which is a new contrail that adds four lights that mimic the four PlayStation colors out of your hands and feet.

The pickaxe is a very interesting item, too. It's made out of rubberized plastic and shares the same colors as the PS4 controller. On the top of the pickaxe there are two joysticks that mimic the DualShock 4 joysticks and there is even a small USB charging port added.

The new pickaxe is certainly quite unique and there’s nothing

In anticipation for the Red Dead Redemption 2 release, Rockstar Games has just announced a large line of Red Dead merchandise.

All of the new merch can be purchased directly from the Rockstar Warehouse on Rockstar's website.

All of the merchandise has been pinned under a new section called the Outlaw Essentials collection.

There are multiple dozen different items that are themed around outlaws and Red Dead in general. Alongside your standard t-shirts, you'll also find logo stickers, puzzles, phone cases, a bottle opener, a shot glass, and even a Zippo lighter.

It should be noted that all of the new merch has been launched already. None of the merchandise will be shipped with copies of Red Dead Redemption 2 but there are a number of limited versions of the game that do come with some sweet exclusive physical

Epic Games has launched another brand new starter pack for Fortnite. This time, it contains a brand new skin, new back bling, and some V-Bucks.

It’s a great offer for anybody interested in getting more V-Bucks or for those that are interested in purchasing their first skin.

As seen above, the new Ace Skin is themed similarly to the upcoming High Stakes Wild Card skin. It shares the same sci-fi-like bank robbery theme. The same can be said about the back bling, which is essentially a large duffel bag filled with money.

You can purchase the new Ace starter pack on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC, or mobile. The pack costs $5 and it comes with 600 V-Bucks.

When you consider that the cheapest V-Bucks option costs $10 and comes with 1,000 V-Bucks, this bundle is certainly worth the money.

Out of nowhere, CD Projekt Red started broadcasting a strange cryptic video on YouTube and Twitch.

After many hours, the live broadcast switched up and a full gameplay video for Cyberpunk 2077 was showcased.

Whilst not many actual gameplay elements were shown, we got introduced to the world of Cyberpunk 2077, we were shown some gameplay and RPG elements.

More importantly, all 48 minutes of the gameplay video was shot in the game. No additional rendering or cutscenes were added.

In the beginning, the gameplay video showcased the player creation screen. Players will have many options at their disposal to adjust their character. They can change their appearance, their starting traits, and their gender.

The gameplay video also showcased how story-rich Cyberpunk 2077

Epic Games has just announced a brand new event called High Stakes. The new mode will drop on the first week of September.

So far, we don't know exactly what the new High Stakes event will be. We do know, however, that the event is themed after a high stakes bank robbery.

Epic Games did mention on Twitter that the new event will come with a number of new features for players to get their hands on.

First up is the new Limited Time Event called Getaway.

Nobody knows exactly what this mode will entail, but it fits in with the theme of the event.  

New challenges exclusive to the High Stakes event will also be added to Fortnite, as well as a brand new Wild Card outfit. The outfit you see on the promo image above is the new outfit.

We’ve already had the pleasure to test Black Ops 4’s standard multiplayer ahead of schedule, but now we will also get the chance to try out the new Blackout game mode before the full launch.

Activision has now revealed that Blackout will be getting a beta in September. We have the full scoop on the beta date and supported platforms in this article.

For those unaware, Blackout is COD’s new battle royale mode. It’s not the only AAA game getting one this year. Both Black Ops 4 and Battlefield V will be receiving one.

However, with Blackout’s beta going live in September, Blacks Ops 4 will be the first battle royale mode we get to see in a triple A shooter.

Firstly, if you're a PS4 player, you'll get to experience Blackout early.

PS4 owners that pre-order Blackout

Destiny 2: Forsaken is set to be the biggest expansion yet. It will drop on September 4 for Xbox One, PC, and PS4 players.
Here is a look at everything that is included in this expansion:

Cayde’s Death

One of Destiny’s most beloved characters dies in the Forsaken expansion and a new story campaign focuses around his death and the events that proceed it.

New weapons and Gear

Brand new gear and weapons will be added to the new Forsaken expansion. Players will be swamped with new exotics, legendaries, and exciting changes to the Masterwork system.

Players will also be able to finally add any weapon to each weapon slot. If you want to equip two rocket launchers at once, now you can. Two swords? Sure. Or maybe something more practical like a scout rifle and a pulse rifle.

The recent Black Ops 4 beta was mostly met with optimism and positivity, but there were some areas that definitely needed some extra attention.

Recently, Treyarch took to Reddit to share their thoughts on the feedback they received during the beta. Treyarch also left some comments on the changes they will be bringing to Black Ops 4 before it launches on October 12.

Firstly, the fog of war minimap feature is getting reworked massively. Many players felt that the minimap was a little too overpowered in the beta, and Treyarch agreed. They will tone it down a little bit in full release.

Tac-Deploy was a topic for hot debate in the beta. With this tool, a team member can essentially change the spawn position of the team, but it proved to be a little too powerful.

As a result, Treyarch will be shortening the time the Tac-Deploy is active. On top of this, only 10 spawns per Tac-Deploy are possible before it shuts down.

Perhaps the biggest change was the adjustments
