Renegade Raider and Aerial Assault Trooper have returned to the Fortnite Item Shop to continue the Fortnite OG celebrations. While many in the community look forward to unlocking and purchasing the OG outfits, some players are unhappy that their once-rare skin is no longer exclusive.

With Fortnite OG making its official comeback, the possibility of some ultra-rare OG skins soon became a reality, and this has caused some upset in the community. Most of the discussion surrounds Renegade Raider, despite Aerial Assault Trooper coming along for the ride. While this is probably down to the general preference for female skins, spare a thought for the often-ignored male counterpart. View the full article

Two men on the board of directors for Epic Games have stepped down from their positions after the US Department of Justice investigated the board under antitrust laws. The pair of directors were originally appointed to Epic's board by Tencent (who slurp upon a ********* stake in the Unreal Engine company) but the United States government took a look at this and said: ah-ah-ah, you're not allowed to have a director in your boardroom if they're already fingers-deep in the pie of a competing company.

The Forever Winter is a different breed of extraction shooter. Unlike in Escape From Tarkov or Hunt Showdown, where breaking stealth has plenty of benefits, going loud is rarely the best course of action. Caught in an apocalyptic conflict between two giant, warring megacorporations, the safest play is to keep your head down, scavenge for the resources you need to stay alive among the rubble, and only open fire if it's absolutely necessary. But in The Forever Winter December update, that's all changed, courtesy of new playable character, Gunhead. Read the rest of the story...

Ubisoft has revealed a game-changing feature coming to the Feudal Japan-set Assassin's Creed Shadows: protagonist Naoe can Naruto run. Creative director Jonathon Dumont told Entertainment Weekly of the flamboyant means of traversal, in which someone leans over so their face is just a few feet from the ground, throws their arms straight back, and sprints at top speed. "Naoe’s the fastest Assassin we ever made," Dumont said. "She runs super fast, she has a lot of gadgets to keep her stealth so that she doesn't have to fight often. We wanted to satisfy that for players that come in for that ninja-Assassin game." He then teased the Naruto run. "We do have a run on top of buildings that has a little bit of a wink-wink to it," Dumont said. The Naruto run, obviously, comes from beloved anime and manga series Naruto, which is set in a ficticious world full of ninja. The distinct style of sprinting is fairly iconic imagery from the series and has been honored and laughed at in equal measure over the years. Players can virtually Naruto run for themselves when Assassin's Creed Shadows arrives on February 14, a few months after its original November release date. A lot rests on the shoulders of Assassin's Creed Shadows as not only is it the long-awaited Feudal Japan-set entry and the first full Assassin's Creed since 2020, but a struggling Ubisoft needs it to perform well following recent flops. It's not enjoyed a particularly positive promotional ******* so far, however, with the development team having to apologize on separate occasions for inaccuracies in Assassin's Creed Shadows' depictions of Japan and using a historical recreation group's flag without permission. Yet another controversy came as collectible figure maker PureArts removed an Assassin's Creed Shadows statue from ***** over its "insensitive" design. Ryan Dinsdale is an IGN freelance reporter.
