Marvel’s Avengers Black Panther – War for Wakanda expansion adds T'Challa and Wakanda

17/8/2021

Square Enix have today released the latest content drop for their superhero action title, Marvel’s Avengers, bringing Black Panther and the Wakanda region into the fold.

The update, which is free for all owners of the base game, is said to be the biggest to date, adding new story content, additional missions, new enemies, an entirely new location, plus the ninth playable hero in the form of Black Panther. Black Panther - War for Wakanda’s story is delivered through the game’s Avengers Initiative War Zone missions, which “take the Avengers around the world and beyond” and can be played solo with an AI team or with three friends via online multiplayer.
Players will be able to explore famous locations from within the Black Panther universe in a new Outpost, such as Shuri’s laboratory, Zawavari’s chambers and the Wakandan War Room, as well as the Royal Palace that overlooks Birnin Zana.

Here’s a blurb detailing War for Wakanda’s new story content:

“When arch-villain Klaw's forces threaten Wakanda's safety, T'Challa must take the fight right to them to defend everything and everyone he holds dear. Blindsided by a betrayal and the resulting tragedy, T'Challa finds it difficult to entrust his duty to anyone else, even his sister Shuri, while also confronting those who wish to do Wakanda harm.”

Black Panther – War for Wakanda is available now for all Marvel Avenger’s players on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4 and PC.

​Looking forward to exploring Wakanda? Let us know below.

A Lethal League Blaze Steam key is this week’s giveaway prize.

​
Lethal League Blaze marks the return of the only ball-based fighting game series. It’s an innovative mix of the sports and fighting genres, building on all the competitive excitement that fans have come to expect from both.

While the frenetic solo, local and online gameplay elements are compelling in their own right, Blaze also has a sick aesthetic. There are colourful environments, crazy characters and a bangin’ soundtrack to help tie everything together.

Got what it takes to dominate? Enter via Gleam below for a chance to win Lethal League Blaze on PC. It’s also available to purchase for £17.99 on Steam.

Good luck!

Chivalry 2 House Galencourt update adds new mode, maps and cosmetics

11/8/2021

 
Chivalry-2-House-Galencourt

Torn Banner Studios have released the free House Galencourt update that adds two new maps and a game mode to their medieval multiplayer title, Chivalry 2, alongside further customisation options.

@pass_controller

This update introduces the new Galencourt and Courtyard maps. The former supports the large Team Objective game mode and sees the Mason Army laying “brutal siege” to the walled Agathian city of Galencourt. The latter, meanwhile, supports Team Deathmatch, Free-For-All and the brand-new Arena Mode game types. There’s a look at gameplay on both maps in the trailer below.
Arena Mode pits two teams of three against each other in smaller scale battles with a “focus on teamwork”, the first team to win five rounds being declared victorious. The mode will take place on reworked versions of the Tournament Grounds, Fighting Pits and Courtyard multiplayer maps.

Also arriving in the update are more than 60 new customisation options, including new voice lines. There’s also the return of Arrow Cam from the original Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, which will allow for some “truly cinematic action shots.”

Chivalry 2 is available now on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4 and PC via the Epic Games Store.

Rainbow Six Siege Containment Event now live, adds new PvP mode

3/8/2021

 
Rainbow-Six-Siege-Containment-Event

Ubisoft have released a new game mode for their multiplayer shooter, Rainbow Six Siege, as part of the game’s three-week long Containment Event.

@pass_controller

The event sees the game’s Consultant map given a sci-fi/horror twist thanks to a Chimera Parasite infestation. The new game mode, Nest Destruction, is said to offer a “tease into the world of Extraction,” Ubisoft’s upcoming PvE title set within the Rainbow Six universe. Nest Destruction sees a team of human attackers trying to complete a two-tiered objective scenario in which they must first destroy a parasite’s nest before moving on to the final objective.
Defenders, meanwhile, will take on the role of corrupted, humanoid operators and must stop the attackers by either eliminating them entirely or successfully defending their nest. Defenders won’t be allowed to use weapons, but will have additional health, increased speed and the Aruni’s Punch and Oryx’s special abilities.

​There will be 33 “unique” and time-limited operator items for players to collect over the course of the event, including headgear, uniforms and weapon skins. These items can either be bought with R6 Credits – Siege’s paid in-game currency – or via Renown, another in-game currency which can be earned for free by playing matches and levelling up.

The three-week Containment Event kicks off today and ends on 24 August. Rainbow Six Siege will also be free to play during a portion of the event, from 13 to 15 August.

What do you think of the new game mode? Let us know below.
