There was a lot on offer at this year’s First Playable and we’re already looking forward to next year’s event”.

July 22^nd, 2022 – Today, Capcom released a new trailer for Resident Evil™ Village Gold Edition and the highly anticipated Winters’ Expansion DLC for the award-winning eighth main installment of the survival horror series. The latest footage provides a closer look at “The Mercenaries Additional Orders”, which introduces new playable characters, more stages, and additional improvements to the beloved fast-paced action mode.

Resident Evil Village Gold Edition will be available on Oct. 28, 2022 for PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation®4, Xbox One, and Steam. The Winters’ Expansion will also release on the same date for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Steam.

Watch the trailer here:

A new ensemble of heroes and villains join Resident Evil™ Village protagonistEthan Winters as playable characters in “The Mercenaries Additional Orders”. This Winters’ Expansion content updates enables players to step into the sizable shoes of Alcina Dimitrescu, charge into battle wielding the magnetic powers of Karl Heisenberg, and unleash Chris Redfield’s arsenal of weaponry and boulder-boxing fists.

Lady Dimitrescu looms large over enemies in this action-packed mode, where she brings her nine-foot stature to bear against any Lycans or other foes unfortunate enough to cross her path. In combat, Dimitrescu builds a Thrill meter by slicing adversaries to ribbons with her razor-sharp talons. This allows her to perform special actions like slamming down hostiles or summoning her daughters.

Meanwhile, Lord Karl Heisenberg possesses his own electrifying powers. Equipped with a massive hammer and the ability to manipulate magnetic currents, Heisenberg can really put a charge into his attacks. The terrifying creations from Heisenberg’s factory, Soldat Jets, also join him in the fray – but be mindful not to get caught in the crossfire of their self-destructive assaults. Heisenberg can also trade off movement speed to see what enemies are made of by pulling them in with his magnetic field or put on a show everyone can enjoy by slinging scrap metal, like saw blades, their way.

Chris Redfield also S.T.A.R.S. in “The Mercenaries Additional Orders”.  The legendary BSAA agent packs a serious straight punch that not only can get him out of situations where he’s stuck between a rock and a hard place, but it also builds up his Onslaught gauge in a hurry as well. When Onslaught is active, Chris moves and reloads with lightning speed. Chris can also request support from the Hound Wolf Squad by using his target locator to pinpoint enemy positions and call in missile strikes.

Alongside the new playable characters, “The Mercenaries Additional Orders” introduces two new stages, the Bloody Village and Bloody River, plus additional improvements to the experience.

About Resident Evil Village Gold Edition and the Winters’ Expansion

Set a few years after the events of Resident Evil™ 7 biohazard, Resident Evil Village resumes the Winters family saga with a new nightmare where Ethan is hunted by relentless new foes in an isolated village. Resident Evil Village continues Ethan’s adventure in the first-person view with photorealistic visuals that take survival horror to the next level with the power of Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine.

Resident Evil Village Gold Edition is a bundle of the base game with a code for the upcoming Winters’ Expansion, which includes Third Person Mode, “The Mercenaries Additional Orders”, and “Shadows of Rose”, a new narrative DLC following the story of Ethan’s daughter Rosemary set 16 years after the main campaign. Resident Evil Village Gold Edition also includes the “Trauma Pack” digital add-on content.

The Criminal Enterprises, Coming July 26 to GTA Online

The Southern San Andreas economy is in crisis. Gas prices have spiked to their highest levels in decades, retail supply chains are in turmoil, and to top it off a ferocious heatwave is gripping the state.

Executives, Bikers, Nightclub Owners, and Gunrunners are making the most of the chaotic conditions. Meanwhile, the sudden spike at the pumps has caught the attention of the IAA, who suspect the corrupt Duggan petrochemical family are rigging the system in their favor, and they’re going to need you to help them put the pieces together.

The Criminal Enterprises is a sweeping update bringing new missions and upgrades to GTA Online including significant expansions to business prospects for Criminal Careers, plus new, elaborate Contact Missions with players operating as a sworn-in agent for the IAA and much more starting July 26.

The Criminal Enterprises also delivers highly requested experience improvements while giving players more choice in how they climb their way up the criminal ranks. Players will earn increased payouts across a range of gameplay, enjoy experience improvements, and more — with new modes, vehicles, collectibles, and special events dropping all summer long, including new showroom floors where players can test drive or simply purchase a range of new vehicles on the spot.

Expand Your Businesses

Following the launch of GTAV on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and the standalone version of GTA Online earlier this year, The Criminal Enterprises addition to GTA Online grows and evolves the world across all platforms. Whether you’ve entered GTA Online via the Career Builder on the latest generation consoles or you’re a seasoned kingpin, The Criminal Enterprises offers an assortment of exciting new updates for intrepid entrepreneurs of all kinds. And no matter which Criminal Career path you’ve chosen, all Business activities — including Sell Missions — will now be available to play in private (Invite Only, Crew, and Friends) sessions as part of The Criminal Enterprises.

Executives

Those who own an Executive Office will notice new staff manager Lupe, ready and able to help source additional Special Cargo for your empty shelves. A new side gig will also open up for Executives, where a shipment of Special Cargo will arrive daily outside your Warehouse, packed and ready for delivery to the docks. Plus, two new sources of Special Cargo will also be added to the mix of Source Missions, increasing the variety of missions available to white-collar criminals statewide.

Bikers

Clubhouses with the Custom Bike Shop are getting an on-the-house upgrade, where MC Presidents will be able to modify clients’ bikes to specifications and deliver them to customers for GTA$ and RP. Bikers will also be able to bolster their street cred and bottom lines by completing two new Clubhouse Contracts, posted on the meeting room wall at the Clubhouse. And you might notice patrons haunting the bar in your Clubhouse — a Bar Resupply mission will keep the kegs tapped and the clientele happy while earning a little extra income for your MC.

Gunrunners

Ammu-Nation has heard that you’re all about supplying quality goods at a fair price, and they want in. Make a daily delivery to a designated Ammu-Nation store for an additional source of revenue. When stocking your Bunker, you’ll come across two new Resupply Missions, so be sure to rob these new targets for all they’re worth. And players will also be able to launch Resupply Missions from the road or increase their research progress by sourcing data from a well-armed mark.

Nightclub Owners

Nightclub owners can now contact Yohan to take on missions to source Goods for their Nightclub Warehouse or call Tony to launch Club Management missions. Two new Club Management missions have been added to the roster, giving you new ways to promote your above-board operations. Meanwhile, inside your club, you’ll be able to maintain the vibes by ejecting troublemakers and chaperoning passed-out VIPs to safe locations off-site.

Go Undercover in Operation Paper Trail
The profits from soaring gas prices all seem to be flowing one way into the pockets of the most notorious oil-rich dynasty in the Los Santos area. The IAA smells a criminal conspiracy — Agent ULP will be in touch with the new Operation Paper Trail, commissioning 1–4 players as sworn-in agents to investigate the local petrochemical magnates, the Duggans, to see if they’re the invisible hand behind spiraling oil prices.

Get Behind the Wheel with New Vehicles

There will be plenty of new ways to cut a route between points A and B in The Criminal Enterprises, with new vehicles arriving throughout the summer and beyond. Two new Imani Tech-eligible vehicles will be available to take advantage of special upgrades from F. Clinton and Partner’s expert hacker, including remote control, missile lock-on jammer, and more. 

There will also be new Tuners vehicles, and Benny’s Original Motor Works is expanding its capabilities to work on additional vehicles. Meanwhile, Hao is keen to get to work on an existing classic, with a brand-new ride coming later this summer for those on the latest generation of consoles. Plus, an assortment of new and deeper customization options on several OG vehicles, some of which you may already own, that will give them a new look, and a new lease on life.

Increased Payouts and Other Improvements

In addition to all the above, be on the lookout for a comprehensive list of new gameplay and experience improvements coming to GTA Online, including a reduction in the effectiveness of the Oppressor Mk II’s homing missiles and countermeasures, an easier way to replenish Health during firefights with more convenient access to snacks and armor, and much more.

The Criminal Enterprises will also introduce several changes to the economy, including permanent boosts to Race and Adversary Mode payouts, increased payouts for original Heists and The Doomsday Heist, bigger paydays for Bodyguards, Associates, and MC Members, and more.

Look for more details on all the new gameplay and balancing changes at the Rockstar Newswire when The Criminal Enterprises launches on July 26 across PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC.

FUTURISTIC TOMMY PLAY METAVERSE STORE OPENS ON ROBLOX

In this next expansion of the ‘TOMMY PLAY’ space, a new retail store inspired by Bronx-street culture opens its doors to the Roblox community.

AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS (JULY 2022) – Tommy Hilfiger, which is owned by PVH Corp. [NYSE: PVH], further expands its ever-evolving Roblox experience with a virtual TOMMY PLAY store. The brand’s presence on Roblox launched in December 2021 with eight digital fashion designers from the Roblox community creating the Tommy X Roblox Creators collection. The collaboration then expanded to include the June 2022 launch of TOMMY PLAY, an immersive social space with ongoing content updates for the Roblox community. This latest step reflects Tommy Hilfiger’s continued ambitions to offer unique brand experiences to its global community.

“We’re excited to announce this next phase of our Roblox collaboration,” said Tommy Hilfiger. “Sharing these fun and unique aspects of our brand with the Roblox users is an innovative way we engage with the digital consumer. There are so many possibilities in the metaverse and this is just one more offering that we’ve created together.”

Aiming to defy physics, the TOMMY PLAY store is spacious and set high in the sky. With a nod to the brand’s heritage, the store displays large stone animal statues inspired by the Bronx Zoo and features tags from local street artists – paying homage to the Bronx’s iconic imagery.

The store is a hub for the TOMMY JEANS Pop collection, products which include iconic puffers, windbreakers, hoodies and accessories, such as a logoed bucket hat and bumbag. Alongside the retail space, the main attraction is parkour, where the community can enter a spray paint area to create their own tags and unlock street dancing. Roblox users also can work towards getting into a secret space, complete with a DJ booth for hosting parties. Once achieved, users will find favorites such as a hotdog backpack and the chicken – now a main character in this map.

In this latest expansion phase, some of the original UGC creators from the December 2021 launch helped design the futuristic retail store – and some new creators joined up to help stock and design the digital store. Check out their creator profiles on Roblox: @StrapCode, @MahaIo, @Blizzei, @missmudmaam, @Martin_Rblx2, @Polarcub_art, and @RynityRift.

With over 50 million daily Roblox users, the partnership supports Tommy Hilfiger’s continued exploration of the digital, gaming and metaverse spaces. It complements Team Tommy, a community-led initiative that celebrates eight up-and-coming talents from the gaming community. Rooted in Tommy Hilfiger’s legacy of fostering new and emerging talent, Team Tommy seeks to empower a new wave of Futuremakers and champion creatives in the gaming space for their unique talents.

Friends and followers of the brand are invited to join the conversation on social media using #TommyHilfiger and @TommyHilfiger.
