Intel has finally revealed the exact date that its new Lunar Lake laptop CPUs will be unleashed into the world, with the Intel Lunar Lake series arriving in shops on Tuesday, September 3, 2024. The new Core Ultra 200V chips contain more powerful AI processing parts compared to Intel's current Meteor Lake/Core Ultra 100 chips, and they're expected to provide improved battery life too, although they have at least one notable downside. The new contenders to power the best gaming laptops of the world, come at a tumultuous time for Intel, with rumors that it's set to lay off 10,000 employees, while its desktop chips are being heavily criticized for instability in games. If Lunar Lake can provide a big boost in battery life and plenty of power, it could be one positive step in the company's recovery. Read the rest of the story...

No More Heroes developer Soichi Suda a.k.a. Suda51 and Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami are interested in returning to the Killer7 series. The two renowned game makers discussed their potential futures during an installment in one of Grasshopper Manufacture’s Grasshopper Direct presentations. Toward the end of the 40-minute video, which primarily offers a behind-the-scenes look at Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered, Mikami and Suda were asked to comment on what they’re working on next. It was the Resident Evil veteran who brought up his ******* to see more from Killer7. “I’ve realized that I want to stay as hands-on as possible when it comes to game creation, and I’d love to see Suda make a sequel to Killer7,” Mikami said. Suda, surprised, replies, “Seriously?!” Killer7 launched in 2005 and follows Harman Smith and his seven ******* personalities. Fans have grown to appreciate the game in the last 19 years, with many falling in love with its unique gameplay, visuals, and style. We gave it an 8.1/10 in our original review, and at the time, we said, “Players who can look beyond the control mechanics will find a truly bold and intriguing adventure game lurking within Killer7's beautiful cel-shaded visuals.” Suda directed Killer7 with oversight from Mikami and isn’t opposed to revisiting its world. “I’d rather make a complete edition first. “Someday we just may see a Killer7 sequel or a ‘complete edition,’ " Suda adds. However, it sounds like he’d prefer to start with the latter. “I’d rather make a complete edition first. First a complete edition and then Killer11,” he says with a smile. Suda continues: “I don’t know – ‘Killer7-something,’ probably. Maybe ‘Killer7: Beyond.’” Mikami feels a Killer7 complete edition might be “doable,” but Grasshopper would need to first decide whether to pursue it or some sort of sequel first. For now, no sequel has been announced. For more, you can learn about the Killer7 PC port that arrived in 2018. Michael Cripe is a freelance contributor with IGN.

How does Star Wars Outlaws lockpicking work? While Massive Entertainment is bringing us a huge open world to explore in Star Wars Outlaws, that's not to say every door and entryway will be open to Kay and Nix.

Sony has announced the PlayStation Plus games for August 2024: LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga (PS4 and PS5); Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach (PS4 and PS5); and Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights (PS4). In a new PlayStation Blog post, Sony Interactive Entertainment's Director of Content Acquisition & Operations Adam Michel revealed that all three games will be available to active PlayStation Plus subscribers starting Tuesday, August 6, and have until Monday, September 2, to redeem these digital copies. PS Plus subscribers who have yet to claim the free games for July 2024 (Borderlands 3, NHL 24, and Among Us) have until August 6 to redeem those games as part of their PS Plus subscription. LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is a compilation of video games representing all nine installments in the Skywalker Saga sub-trilogies, starting with A New Hope and concluding with The Rise of Skywalker. It also includes additional characters and DLC characters based on other Star Wars shows and projects, including The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett. In our review of LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, which we awarded an 8 out of 10, my colleague Tristan Ogilvie wrote: "LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga provides some rollicking reimaginings of Star Wars' most iconic moments and seats them inside a series of interplanetary playgrounds that are dense with discovery and entertaining diversions." Five Nights at Freddy's Security Breach is a horror game released in 2021 and is the eleventh installment in the widely popular Five Nights at Freddy's franchise. Security Breach is set in a mall. Players control a boy named Gregory, who finds himself trapped in Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex. He must survive the night by evading hostile animatronic mascots and other enemies. Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights is an indie ARPG. It was originally released in January 2021 as a Steam Early Access title before a full release in June. Players control Lily, a young priestess who is looking to unravel the mystery regarding a destroyed kingdom of Land's End. Its release became quite a hit for Indie games, with Gematsu reporting in March 2022 that the game had sold over 600,000 digital copies across the globe. In February 2024, during a Nintendo Direct showcase, a sequel, Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist, was announced and released on March 24, 2024, for Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.

Changes to Magic: The Gathering Secret Lair drops have hit a boiling point with fans after the highly sought-after Monty Python Volumes one and two sold out in less than an hour on July 29. The print model for MTG Secret Lair drops was changed earlier this year, from order and wait to an on-demand limited stock. Adjustments were made after some fans voiced complaints about the time it took to receive purchased drops, creating a system where cards were received within a reasonable time frame. But limited quantities of Secret Lair drops have a major downside when drops sell out on day one like the MTG Monty Python drops that sold out in one hour on July 29 and previous Hatsune Miko drops.
