Echo Operator from Rainbow Six Siege

The Rainbow Six Siege: Operation Red Crow DLC is set to arrive next week, November 17 to be specific, to all Season Pass holders, while everyone else will get a chance to grab it a week later, on November 24. As for the DLC itself, it brings with it two new operators, Echo and Hibana, as well as a rather lovely Japanese styled map called Skyscraper.

While Ubisoft is holding back most of the information for their big reveal later today, they did recently post a couple of videos briefly teasing the two new operators and map. The emphasis there is unfortunately on 'briefly', but if you're curious about all of the new features its still worth having a look. Here you go:

Tyranny artwork showcasing where you stand in the hiearchy

In most movies and games the good guys win through either the power of love, a magical McGuffin, or some sort of ancient prophecy they discovered 10 minutes ago. But have you ever wondered what would happen if the clearly superior villain ended up being the victor in that grand, climactic battle between good and evil? Would that be the end of all, or would the bad guys establish a new set of laws to govern the now unified nations of the world? And what about all of the armies of monsters and men that have suddenly found themselves without a cause to rally behind?

If you're interested in the answers you'll be glad to hear that it is exactly these topics that Tyranny explores, but not in a superficial and patronizing way, but with a surprising degree of nuance. The 'good guys' aren't all that pristine and will gladly resort to devious methods in order to achieve their goals, while the majority of the 'bad guys' are simply terrified cogs in the machine. All of this serves to make both sides feel like actual people, rather than overly simple representations of concepts such as good and evil, which goes a long way towards making the world of Tyranny all the more intriguing.

But since this is a game we're talking about after all, I'm sure the big question on everyone's mind is whether Tyranny is any fun to actually play? Well, allow me to show you what exactly its all about, and you can hopefully work it out from there!

Gwent: The Witcher Card Game Ciri official artwork

Gwent: The Witcher Card Game entered closed beta a couple of weeks ago, and if you're among the majority that hasn't received their key just yet, worry not as I'm bringing some good news! According to a recent forum post, everyone who signed up for the closed beta in June will be getting their invite by the end of next week.

Naturally, this doesn't mean that the rest of you are out of luck as CDPR is planning to send out even more invites in the weeks that follow, so chances are you won't have to wait for too long in order to get your hands on Gwent. Since the whole announcement is rather brief, here's the full quote:

A couple of days ago a NeoGAF user by the name of boskee posted a translation of a document that called for an "extraordinary meeting of shareholders" in order to discuss how CD Projekt will resist unwelcome advances from larger companies. Even though there wasn't much information present in the announcement itself, it really did seem like CDPR was preparing its shareholders to defend against a hostile takeover.

Thankfully, it appears that the while the announcement may have been true, the threat of a hostile takeover was not. According to a statement from CD Projekt gave to WCCFTech, the proposal is not a reaction to any current events, but rather an insurance against some future hypothetical scenarios that may or may not ever arise. Here's the full quote:

RollerCoaster Tycoon World screenshot showing a lovely park entrance

In a bit of a surprise announcement, Atari recently came out to state that RollerCoaster Tycoon World will be leaving Early Access on November 16. While that date alone isn't anything special, its significance lies in the simple fact that its the day before Planet Coaster's launch! It appears we're going to have an all-out rollercoaster war ahead of us!

Then again, I have a feeling this little 'war' will be over before it even gets started. The reason I say this is because RollerCoaster Tycoon World has managed to achieve the nearly impossible task of getting a massively negative score on Steam, despite bearing the name of an incredibly popular and nostalgic series. But if you would like to form your own opinion, I would recommend you check one of the most recent gameplay preview videos:

Dirt 3 Complete Edition screenshot showing a car spinning around a pillar

In order to celebrate the currently ongoing Birthday Sale the Humble Store has decided to offer a free game for everyone to enjoy. As you can probably guess from the tittle alone, the game in question is Dirt 3 Complete Edition.

Whether its any good or not, I have absolutely no idea given that I simply don't care about racing games, but if you do you might as well check it out for the incredibly low price of nothing. But if you need at least a glimpse at the gameplay before deciding if the download times are worth it, here's one of the most recent trailers for the Complete Edition:
