At Xbox, we’re always looking for ways to give our fans even more choice in how to jump into the next generation of gaming—and to have some fun doing it. Whether you’re upgrading to the newest consoles or joining the Xbox family for the first time, Xbox All Access gives you everything you need to get playing — an Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S and 24 months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate — from just $33 a month for 24 months with no upfront cost.
As gamers begin the next generation of play on Xbox Series X|S, we do so remembering the great experiences we had before with excitement for what’s to come. And no one knows how to navigate the waters of love, loss and love again than 90s R&B singers. So, we thought, what better way to celebrate the reimagining of how you can join Xbox with the all-inclusive offer of Xbox All Access than with the ‘90s R&B sensation, All-4-One, reimagining “I Swear,” their 1994 ballad?
In the music video, shot and edited in a nostalgic ‘90s-style, the band takes us on a journey from reminiscing about our favourite gaming experiences and memories of years past to those waiting for us on Xbox Series X|S with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Aptly narrated by the band with custom lyrics centred on Xbox All Access, “It’s All There” highlights the benefits and ease of your all-inclusive pass to Xbox.
“It’s All There” speaks the heart and truth of Xbox All Access. It’s all there. Xbox All Access gives you everything you need to get into gaming with Xbox – not only an Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S console, but also a library of over 100 high-quality games for console, PC, phones, and tablets with 24-months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate included. Plus, you get all new Xbox Game Studios titles the same day they release, including Forza Horizon 5, Halo Infinite, and so many more. All-4-One low monthly price! And don’t worry about leaving the favourite gaming experiences behind, with backwards compatibility on Xbox Series X|S you can enjoy 1000s of your favourite Xbox games from across four generations.
Xbox All Access is available in twelve countries around the world and will come to more partners in more countries over the next year. Click here to learn more about Xbox All Access and look out for more nostalgic Xbox All Access ‘90s themed content in the coming days.

Expansion of 2K Foundations projects serves even more underprivileged communities with diverse programming across basketball, golf, music, and more
Sydney, Australia – July 8, 2021 –2K Foundations, the philanthropic arm of 2K that supports and inspires underserved communities by directly investing in local enrichment programs, unveiled its latest project in Toronto this week. In partnership with the City of Toronto, HXOUSE and global artists The Weeknd and NAV, the Toronto Lawrence Heights Court has received a complete refurbishment that includes a new scoreboard, backboards, repairs to the court, and an art installation designed by award-winning, multi-disciplinary artist Ben Johnston and multimedia artist Trevor Wheatley.
“The support from 2K Foundations has made a huge difference to the children in our community who truly benefit from better access to play,” said Janie Romoff, Forestry and Recreation General Manager at Toronto Parks. “In a community that’s been greatly impacted by COVID-19, the impact of 2K Foundations’ contributions are invaluable and will motivate our kids to pursue their passions on and off the court once it is safe to do so.”
“Working with my home city of Toronto and 2K Foundations on this community enrichment effort is something that is personal to me,” said The Weeknd, musician and co-founder at HXOUSE. “We’re proud to have renovated a space where kids of all backgrounds can hone their crafts and follow their passions.”
“As a Toronto native, it’s an honour to give back to the city where I grew up playing ball,” said NAV, musician. “Because basketball and hip hop can provide so many opportunities for kids growing up in this community, we designed a court and helped renovate a community centre that empowers kids of all backgrounds to explore their interests.”
Over the next year, 2K Foundations will continue its support across a variety of projects worldwide, from further investment into music programming through its new Studio 2K initiative that provides opportunities to create, learn and enjoy music, to creating more opportunities for education and learning. In addition, 2K Foundations will continue its investments in local communities through court refurbishments in partnership with globally renowned artists and athletes.
“2K Foundations was inspired by the basketball community and started with the goal of giving back to the sport that has been a huge part of our company,” said David Ismailer, President at 2K. “Over this past year, we’ve witnessed firsthand the disruption COVID-19 has brought to the world, and we’ve learned so much more about what these communities need as a result. We’ve spent the past year expanding the work we do, both on and off the court, to support projects across music, education, and more. It is with this knowledge that we continue to commit our time, funding, and talent roster to directly help these communities that inspire us, expanding our efforts across different pillars and into more parts of the world.”
Throughout 2020-2021, 2K Foundations has grown its efforts to support a number of projects, representing communities around the globe and showcasing the program’s expansion to include career and learning initiatives, expanded access to sports through golf clinics and tournaments, community enrichment opportunities through music and upgraded studios, and much more:
Cal Johnson Park Court, Knoxville, Tenn. – Refurbished two basketball courts designed in partnership with Chicago Sky forward Candace Parker and artist Erin Miller Wray that opened October 2020, and earned a Keep Knoxville Beautiful Orchid Award for Public Art;
Elencio Mercedes Sports Arena Court, Dominican Republic – Done in partnership with Boston Celtics power forward Al Horford, this new court is currently being installed and painted with the colours of the Dominican Republic flag;
Nechells Wellbeing Centre, Birmingham, UK – Partnered with the City of Birmingham Rockets Basketball Club, whose club ambassador is former NBA player Hakeem Olajuwon, to renovate the current facilities and enable them to offer more community projects. It is the largest basketball club in Birmingham and delivers over 80 hours of basketball sessions to over 800 youths each week in an ethnically-rich community, but underserved area of the UK;
Urban Ventures andFirst Tee, Minneapolis, Minn. – Introduced a brand-new program from 2K Foundations that looks to expose the game of golf to more Black and female youth in the area. The program provides green fees, lesson fees, and equipment to these minority groups to help them get exposed to career paths that may not have existed before;
Ace Kids Golf, Oakland, Calif. – 2K Foundations provided an opportunity for Ace Kids Golf to create its first-ever golf tournament in March 2021, with a second tournament that took place this past month;
Dryades YMCA, New Orleans, La. – Partnered with local youth art organization, YAYA, to create a music program with a mentor artist and young artist in training, as well as create a music lounge for youth, which includes a recording studio, instruments, and mixing equipment for them to create their own music. The program has also expanded to hosting art workshops for local youth that take place in the brand-new Dryades garden, providing a safe and creative outlet for students, with more support planned later this year.
Working directly with community leaders to address important needs, last year 2K also quickly implemented a Distance Learning Initiative, where iPads, high-speed internet and weekly educational lessons were provided to community centres in Chicago, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, New Orleans, and Oakland. Families in these communities were greatly impacted by school closures as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and these resources enabled them to continue their education in a safe setting.

Founded in 2018, 2K Foundations is focused on elevating communities across the globe by providing resources and experiences built on motivation, collaboration, determination, and teamwork.

Rapid-Fire Red Dead Online Passes Designed for Bandits
The Quick Draw Club is a series of four distinct rapid-fire passes in consecutive installments as part of the new Red Dead Online: Blood Money update. The contents of the club and its passes are geared specifically with the personalities of the frontier’s criminal underbelly in mind. Membership in the Quick Draw Club entitles you to rewards, bonuses, and items to help live life on the fringe of the law, starting with a familiar outfit from a notorious gang leader.
With The Quick Draw Club No. 1 you can unlock:
Dutch’s Redcliff Outfit
The Whitchurch Cattleman Revolver Variant
The Rushword Shirt
The Fircroft Hat
Up to 25 Gold Bars and More
With each installment of The Quick Draw Club, you’ll get access to 25 Ranks of rewards for 25 Gold Bars. Earn 25 Gold Bars back for each pass by completing all 25 Ranks. Plus, purchase all four installments of The Quick Draw Club to get a Reward for The Halloween Pass 2 for free. You’ll also earn additional perks for each consecutive pass that you purchase.
No. 1 – JULY 13TH THROUGH AUGUST 9TH Dutch’s Redcliff Outfit Rushword Shirt Whitchurch Cattleman Revolver Variant No. 2 – AUGUST 10TH THROUGH SEPTEMBER 6TH Rowberrow Outfit Haverhill Hat Cartridge Wraps No. 3 – SEPTEMBER 7TH THROUGH OCTOBER 4TH Beadnell Sight Bagshot Knife Layham Jacket Galleywood Wraps No. 4 – OCTOBER 5TH THROUGH OCTOBER 27TH Ibarra Mauser Pistol Variant Huntingdock Coat Forester Poncho Dunster Outfit
Earn Your Blood Money Across a Series of Daring Robberies
New Opportunities and More Coming in Next Week’s Red Dead Online Update
Step into the burgeoning criminal underworld of Red Dead Online: Blood Money on July 13, and prove you are willing to get your hands dirty in service to some particularly notorious and well-connected members of Saint Denis society.
Blood Money There are whispers in the alleys of Lemoyne’s capital that Guido Martelli — right-hand man and underboss to the infamous Angelo Bronte — needs gunslingers of strong constitution. Martelli is seeking to recover a valuable commodity known as Capitale. Originally devised as a unique system of exchange for more sensitive business dealings away from the watchful eyes of the taxman, it’s since ended up in the hands of nearly every lowlife across the five states. Now, Bronte and Martelli want it back — if you can find and return it, Martelli will reward you with access to more worthwhile criminal opportunities.
Martelli is purely focused on results — entry into this world of more civilized crime requires nothing beyond a trusty sidearm and the willingness to use it, and no upfront investment is required.
Crimes and Opportunities
Martelli has entrusted some of The West’s most reprehensible soldiers of fortune with leads on where you might find Capitale. Visiting these contacts will reveal an entirely new type of work known as Crimes. Crimes will range from cloak-and-dagger coach holdups to multi-stage robberies — including kidnapping, brutal debt collections, and more.
Embark on Crimes either as a lone gun or with a full Posse of cutthroats alongside you. During each outing, keep a keen wit and search high and low for signs of Capitale to return to Guido Martelli — including from hidden chests or on the remains of those who’ve crossed your path. As you traverse the plains in Free Roam, you may hear of unlocked Homesteads and vulnerable Camps, ripe for the picking and begging to be relieved of a Capitale stash.
Accumulating enough Capitale for Guido Martelli will reveal Opportunities. These are dispatched by Martelli in a scheme to stifle a rising Lemoyne senator who is disrupting Bronte operations throughout the region. Each Opportunity can reveal various approaches to the task at hand — listen into nearby conversations or look out for important targets to uncover new paths to completion and weaken the politician’s position by bringing each of the three Jewels of the West to Martelli. The first of three Opportunities is available on July 13, while two more will unveil themselves in time.
The Quick Draw Club
The Quick Draw Club is a series of four distinct rapid-fire passes, arriving in consecutive installments over the coming months. Purchasing each membership entitles you to rewards, bonuses, and items to help live life on the fringe of the law — starting with Dutch’s outfit, The Redcliff. With each consecutive pass you purchase, you’ll earn additional perks and rewards for continuing the journey.
Each pass will cost 25 Gold Bars, all of which you’ll earn back by completing the Pass’ 25 Ranks. As an added bonus, players who purchase all four passes will receive the upcoming Halloween Pass 2 for free.
New Clothing, Returning Pass Items, and More
In response to your feedback, the Skill and Satchel Pamphlets previously released via the Outlaw Pass — such as unlocking the ability to Fast Travel from a Wilderness Camp — will be placed on general sale at the Fence.
Plus, over the coming weeks and months, some of the most stylish and oft-requested clothing items from Outlaw Passes No. 2 and No. 3 return for players who were unable to obtain them — including Outfits worn by the legendary members of the Van der Linde Gang like Marston’s outfit, The Clelland, Arthur’s Haraway outfit, the Dedham outfit worn by Bill Williamson, and Javier’s The Zapatero outfit.
As part of the July 13th update, Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online on PC will offer NVIDIA DLSS support to all Windows users with eligible NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics cards. The newly supported feature boosts frame rates and generates beautiful sharp images.
Stay tuned for more details on next week’s update here at the Newswire.

Legendary mash-ups duo create new song for launch of the Turtle Beach Recon 500 headset Featuring samples from multiple gaming scenarios, the track is free to view here New headset features new designs previously unseen in their category
Thursday, 8 July 2021, Sydney: Australian legends of the mash-up scene Mashd N Kutcher have collaborated with global gaming audio brand Turtle Beach to celebrate the launch of the brand’s new Recon 500 headsets. Sampling all manner of gaming sounds, from the click of a keyboard to the pow-pow and screeches of first-person shooters and racing titles, the MNK boys have mixed up a banger which listeners can find on the Turtle Beach SoundCloud.
View the video for “WHEN U COLLAB WITH TURTLE BEACH” here and listen to the track here.
The track, WHEN U COLLAB WITH TURTLE BEACH, samples sounds from the world of gaming, including peripheral sounds such as keypresses, headset jacks and some of their favourite games. Clocking in at just over three minutes, MNK leaned into their childhoods to create a retro electronic grunge vibe to give the track a boss battle feel which aims to soothe the itchy trigger fingers of gamers from all walks of life while demonstrating the breadth of aural dynamism available to gamers on a daily basis.
The new Recon 500 headsets from Turtle Beach are an amalgamation of high-end features previously unseen in their category, such as 60mm Eclipse™ Dual Drivers delivering stunning sound and engineered with AccuTune™ wood composite-injection technology for acoustic perfection. The Recon 500s are available now at retail for RRP$129.95. Mashd N Kutcher’s track is free to listen to via the Turtle Beach SoundCloud.
Country Manager for Turtle Beach, Jeremy Cox, says: “At Turtle Beach we’re all about gaming audio, and with the launch of our next-level Recon 500 headsets we wanted to work with Aussie legends Mashd N Kutcher to create something we’d not attempted before: Music.
The boys who brought us lockdown cheers with Get On the Beers absolutely sMashd it out of the park with WHEN U COLLAB WITH TURTLE BEACH and we’re in awe of what they’ve achieved with just a few gaming sounds.”
Matt, one half of Mashd N Kutcher, says: “A huge portion of our audience are gamers, so we’ve relished the chance to create music made from sounds they’d hear every day. WHEN U COLLAB WITH TURTLE BEACH is, for lack of a better word, a banger and listening to it through Recon 500s is a real treat. We’re interested to see how gamers respond to the track, so have a listen and let us know what you think on socials!”
With more than forty years of gaming audio expertise behind the brand, Turtle Beach leads the industry through continuous innovation in both design and manufacturing, and the Recon 500 headset maintains this tradition.
Recon 500 headsets come in two colours, Black and Arctic White, and are compatible with all gaming platforms. They are available from all major retailers.
