The Elder Scrolls Online Update 44 Now Live on Console – Includes PvP Updates and New Companions

Starting today, The Elder Scrolls Online Update 44 is available for free on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 consoles. This latest update introduces a series of improvements and additions to The Elder Scrolls Online including upgrades to the Battlegrounds PvP mode and introduces two new Companions.

As a base-game update, Update 44 is now available on Xbox and PlayStation consoles, following the launch for PC/Mac on October 28. More details on what’s featured in this update can be found below.

Update 44 introduces big changes to the fast-paced combat of ESO’s PvP Battlegrounds. In this update, Battlegrounds are shifting to two-sided PvP matches, instead of the traditional three-sided. At launch, there will be two main Battlegrounds match types:

  • 4v4—a competitive mode between two teams of four
  • 8v8—a standard mode featuring powerups and two teams of eight

The traditional 4v4v4 game mode will no longer be available for queues; however, it may return in the future for limited times during special mini-PvP events. This new two-sided format also includes seven brand-new maps to battle your fellow players within.

To celebrate the launch of the new PvP Battleground mode, we’re teaming up with content creator SypherPK and Alienware for the ESO Battlegrounds Brawl livestream at twitch.tv/bethesda at 12:30pm ET on November 20. SypherPK will join forces with ESO devs to take on any players who think they have what it takes to win in the Battlegrounds, with Twitch drops and other prizes available to win. ESO Stream Team members will also be going live over the coming weeks to put their PvP skills to the test. 

Update 44 also introduces two brand-new Companions to ESO: Tanlorin and Zerith-var. Tanlorin is a scrappy High Elf who mixes Soul Magic with Dragonknight abilities, while the stoic Khajiit Zerith-var utilises the power of Necromancy. At launch, you can acquire both new allies for free with an active ESO Plus membership or purchase them with crowns from the in-game Crown Store. 

For all the details on Update 44, be sure to check out the official blog post here. The complete list of fixes, improvements, and additions can be found on the official forums here.

Diamond Dallas Page, Mr. Perfect, Great Muta, and Lex Luger Revive the Monday Night Wars in WWE 2K24 WCW Pack

Fifth and final DLC pack also features new moves and MyFACTION content, plus WCW Fall Brawl WarGames Arena

The Monday Night Wars were an unprecedented time in sports entertainment, pitting WWE against rival WCW in a weekly, head-to-head battle. Anything seemed possible, as the biggest, loudest and most outlandish Superstars created unforgettable moments each Monday night. Now, WWE® 2K24 players can relive those moments and create their own with the WCW Pack*, available for purchase today. Featuring some of the most iconic WCW stars – Diamond Dallas Page, Mr. Perfect, Great Muta, and Lex Luger – the final WWE 2K24 DLC pack sets the stage for players to rewrite history in the highest-rated WWE 2K franchise console game to-date.** The WCW Pack is available for individual purchase, or as part of Season Pass, which is included in the Deluxe Edition, and Forty Years of WrestleMania Edition, and Bray Wyatt Edition of WWE 2K24. The previously announced ECW Punk Pack, Post Malone & Friends Pack, Pat McAfee Show Pack, and Global Superstars Pack are also available for individual purchase now.

Among the most beloved WCW stars, Diamond Dallas Page is a three-time World Heavyweight Champion, two-time United States Champion, and four-time World Tag Team champion, among many other in-ring accolades. He’s also a WWE Hall of Famer, accomplished film actor, and founder of the celebrated DDP Yoga program. His signature Diamond Cutter finishing move, “Bang!” taunt, and larger-than-life personality transcend sports entertainment.

Perhaps equally known for his time in WWE and WCW, Mr. Perfect presented himself as the ultimate athlete, capable of nailing impressive athletic feats on the first try, and dazzling audiences with his incredible grappling technique and devastating Perfect Plex finishing move. In WWE, he held an undefeated streak for more than a year, captured the Intercontinental Championship twice, and was inducted into the Hall of Fame. In WCW, he held the United States Championship and World Tag Team Championship, famously betrayed the Four Horsemen, and was a key member of the nWo and West Texas Rednecks stables.

One of the first Japanese professional wrestlers to gain global appeal, The Great Muta presented a frightening and charismatic persona, often wearing elaborate costumes, face paint or a mask, spitting “green mist” into the eyes of opponents, and revolutionizing an array of unique and lightning fast in-ring maneuvers such as the moonsault and shining wizard. A WWE Hall of Famer, The Great Muta is a former WCW World Television Champion and battled the likes of Lex Luger, Vader, and “Stunning” Steve Austin before he introduced his “Stone Cold” persona.

Known as “The Total Package” and “The Narcissist,” Lex Luger boasted one of the most impressive physiques in sports entertainment. A former two-time World Heavyweight Champion, two-time World Television Champion, Royal Rumble winner, and Slammy Award winner, Luger rose to fame in WCW with his devastating Torture Rack submission hold and feuds with the likes of Hulk Hogan, The Great Muta and The Outsiders, as well as joining the nWo Wolfpac stable. He also made a name for himself in WWE by body slamming the massive Yokozuna on the deck of a US Navy aircraft carrier and incapacitating opponents by striking them with a metal plate embedded in his forearm.

Each playable character in the WCW Pack comes with their own MyFACTION card, and they collectively bring over 55 new moves and taunts into the game, which can also be used for custom Superstars in the creation suite. Also included in the WCW Pack is the WCW Fall Brawl WarGames Arena, a surprise new addition not previously advertised.

Also new to WWE 2K24’s MyFACTION game mode for all players is the nWo Wolfpac card series, available November 15 and including Persona cards for Lex Luger, Hollywood Hogan, Big Poppa Pump Scott Steiner, Mr. Perfect and Macho Man Randy Savage.Locker code “WARGAMES” will award a deluxe Singlet Supreme II pack, a Liv Morgan Galaxy Opal free agent card, and 15,000 VC.***

“I Am Future” Unwinds in the Cozy Post-Apocalypse With 1.0 Launch on Steam Today

Build a cozy rooftop camp and explore the world without the post-apocalyptic doom and gloom

SEATTLE – 13 November, 2024 – I Am Future: Cozy Apocalypse Survival, the cozy rooftop post-apocalyptic survival game from developer Mandragora, and publisher tinyBuild, rebuilds a relaxing, forgotten world with a 1.0 release on PC via Steam today. 

Watch I Am Future: Cozy Apocalypse Survival – 1.0 Launch Trailer on YouTube

Ever wonder if survival games could be calming rather than stressful? I Am Future offers a refreshing take on the genre, inviting survivors to craft their dream rooftop base atop skyscrapers in a mysteriously flooded megacity as they build, cook, farm, dismantle old-world gadgets, explore the city, and make new friends. Picture a world where the darkest event possible becomes the seed of hope that promises a brighter future ahead. 

Since its Early Access launch in August 2023, I Am Future has sold more than 100,000 copies on Steam, earned an outstanding “Very Positive” user rating, and received four major content updates, along with numerous improvements and fixes.

“This is somewhat of a personal project for me.’ – says Eugene Kisterev, CEO at Mandragora – ‘I started developing I Am Future by moving from a big city to the countryside. I really wanted to convey the simplicity and serenity of life, which is sometimes lacking in a rapidly developing world. Over a year ago, I Am Future was released in Early Access, and since then, we have continued to develop the game, evolving and nurturing the original concept. Like any person on Earth, each of our players already contains the source of their own future, and we hope the game instills this reassuring and inspiring feeling. We are happy to invite new and returning players to version 1.0, which adds exciting content and provides a finale to our story mode.’

I Am Future: Cozy Apocalypse Survival launches in 1.0 on Windows PC via Steam, today, November 13, 2024, for $19.99 USD, and features a limited-time 35% discount.

New modern military vehicular shooter MWT: Tank Battles has arrived on mobile platforms

The game features more than 150 real modern and future military vehicles

Artstorm Studio and Gaijin Entertainment announce the release of a new military online shooter MWT: Tank Battles on iOS and Android platforms. It already features more than 150 real  modern and future military vehicles like tanks, aircraft, helicopters and combat drones.

MWT: Tank Battles is a dynamic shooter dedicated to the modern ground warfare where armored vehicles and their air support fight over territory. For example, the T-14 and Abrams X tanks go into battle with Su-57 and F-22 fighters covering them from above. Ground and air vehicles in the game are based on military hardware that either is serving in modern armies or is under development.

At launch, four maps in fictional locations are available: “Khazbari Island” (a desert area with an oil refinery and a town by the lake), “Quarry” (a mountainous area where minerals are mined), “Golden Resort” (a resort town at the foot of a volcano) and “Eastern Province” (a military base with nuclear missile silos).

Regular updates with new vehicle models, maps, game modes and other content are planned for MWT: Tank Battles.
