Fortnite's Floating Island Is Moving, and Its Cube Is Set to Grow

Fortnite's never-ending map changes that serve as its story are, unsurprisingly, continuing through Season 6. It looks like the focus this season will be on the floating island above Loot Lake, which EGM reports is on the move.

Season 5 ended when the giant purple cube having finished its own journey around the map by melting into Loot Lake.

Season 6 then began when the cube lifted the Loot Lake's island into the sky. It now seems the cube is moving the island to each of the runes it created during Season 5 in reverse order.

In fact, Fortnite Master tweeted Sunday that the island had reached the first rune and raised the platform it resides on. This seemed to cause bouncy volcanic craters to appear in the corrupted area.Capture

Deadpool 2: The PG-13 Version Will Borrow from The Princess Bride

This December’s family friendly version of Deadpool 2 will borrow its narrative style and Fred Savage, from The Princess Bride.

A few days ago, Deadline reported that Fox is releasing a PG-13 family friendly version of Deadpool 2 on Dec. 21, 2018.

Both Deadpool films leaned hard into their R ratings, so many were left wondering how this new film would manage to keep that same Deadpool spirit, whilst toning down the violence and vulgarity to PG-13. According to a tweet by Ryan Reynolds, the answer is Fred Savage.

Ireland Backs Down from Labeling Loot Boxes as Gambling

Ever since 2017's Star Wars: Battlefront II loot box fiasco, an increasing number of governments have at least considered classifying video game loot boxes as a form of gambling. Despite recent indications to the contrary, however, Ireland is now shying away from labeling them as such.

Irish Legal News reports that Ireland Department of Justice Minister of State David Stanton told the Irish Senate last week that the department, “does not have a role to regulate game developers on how their games work nor, in the offering of in-game purchases.”

Ireland was one of 15 governments earlier this month that signed a declaration from the Gaming Regulators European Forum that described loot boxes as, “blurring of lines between gaming and gambling.”

Red Dead Redemption 2 New Gameplay Trailer Shows Deeper Look Into the Open World

The second gameplay trailer for Red Dead Redemption 2 has released from Rockstar Games and shows a deeper look into the open world.

New footage shows the ability to rob a train, hold up a store, or burglar a house. First-person mode is also shown for the first time in the game.

The Dead Eye system is said to have been expanded and will progress in stages. It will allow you to slow down time with your shot, and see critical and fatal points of your enemies.

Arthur is shown being tracked down by bounty hunters, who will come back in Red Dead Redemption 2 if you have a price on your head.

The trailer shows further customization on what you can wear, ride, eat, and how to present yourself. You have the choice of shaving and bathing – or not.

Hands-On With the First Four Chapters of Call of Cthulhu

Call of Cthulhu, Cyanide Studios’ RPG investigation game based on the pen and paper game of the same name, based on the HP Lovecraft short story of the same name, aims to emulate the rules of the former and the mood of the latter. Its first four chapters make good on the promise of an atmospheric, slow-moving horror experience that feels rooted in Lovecraft’s world, but I’m still wondering just how much your decision making affects its outcomes.

 Call of Cthulhu puts you in the shoes of private investigator Edward Pierce, a grizzled veteran hustling for a struggling business out of his lived-in New England office in 1919. I really loved the attention to detail here: old leather-bound books, yellowed newspaper clippings and dim lighting made me want to settle down in Pierce’s office with a cracked glass of whiskey, which is, incidentally, what Pierce does a lot.
