For a little over a year now, rumors have suggested that developer Respawn Entertainment is working on a new Titanfall game for release in 2019.

According to a leak (via TheQuartering) coming out of Respawn, the developer will be announcing a free-to-play Titanfall battle royale game today (Saturday)....

2020 has been a banner year for Travis Scott, with the Houston rapper having two number-one singles in “THE SCOTTS” and “FRANCHISE,” the first celebrity-endorsed McDonald’s meal since Michael Jordan in 1992 (which promptly sold out), soundtracking Christopher Nolan’s Tenet, and numerous Nike sneaker releases.

A recent Forbes report revealed that Scott — real name Jacques Webster II — earned roughly $20 million from the Fortnite event, a figure that is simply staggering when compared to the Grammy-nominated rapper’s other income streams....

Following the January 6 storming of the US Capitol, the former face of the famous PogChamp emote, Ryan “Gootecks” Gutierrez, made several inflammatory tweets regarding the related death of Ashli Babbitt. As a result of these tweets from Gootecks, Twitch made the decision to remove the PogChamp emote, citing the potential of the social media posts to incite further violence. While Twitch’s decision to distance itself from Gootecks was widely praised by the community, there was a sense of sadness that removing PogChamp meant that the platform had lost a core part of its identity that was easily recognized across the various subsets present on the site....

The Prime Minister of England, Boris Johnson, has just instituted a lockdown across all of England, closing down all physical shopping until December.

It goes without saying that AAA gaming’s creative community is incredibly competitiv, which in turn saddles writers, designers, and coders with a lot of intense expectations. This notion is especially true whenever a well-known game developer such as Naughty Dog has remarkably high standards to meet when releasing the next entry in a popular franchise, like they’re expected to do with Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End. Bearing that in mind, even big video game companies like Naughty Dog aren’t immune to complications or setbacks....

The fear for gamers of any “free-to-play” games, especially new titles from classic franchises that have returned thanks to the successful model, is that some of the games, or key features within them, are not actually “free.” When it comes to competitive game, there’s no an entirely new level of balancing that developers need to address so that players with more money or a stronger willingness-to-pay don’t have an inherent advantage over players who don’t invest in these games....

Call of Duty Warzone marked a big moment for Call of Duty, launching to randomly coincide with lockdowns in 2020 and attracting huge swathes of players to its battle royale format. Three years on you’d think that Warzone 2.0 was a gimme for Activision, but its launch has shown that the games-as-service world is more complicated than it seems.
