Helldivers 2 developers are reportedly working on a new cape inspired by the account-linking controversy. While the community can breathe a sigh of relief knowing the worst of the fiasco has passed, some fans have additionally taken to sharing designs for costume accessories inspired by Helldivers 2's Steam page.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has made lofty promises with the little that it’s been shown off so far, with its crunching, brutal combat looking to recapture the vibe of its acclaimed predecessor. A lot of that will, of course, will come through the game’s campaign – which can be played both solo and co-op – but will a PvP multiplayer component also be on offer? After, all, PvP in the original Space Marine was quite a fan-favourite, so will its sequel follow in its footsteps?

PlayStation has announced that it no longer plans to push the controversial Helldivers 2 PlayStation Network account-linking update.

It seems like every time a new Fortnite crossover is announced these days, you'll find a gaggle of angry fans complaining about its pricing not too far behind. Last month, it was the price of Fortnite's avatar collaboration skins that got fans fired up, and now they've taken aim at the game's upcoming collaboration with Star Wars, once again due to the pricing.

Stellar Blade has launched to huge acclaim this weekend, but not every fan is delighted with Shift Up’s PS5 debut. Eagle-eyed players spotted some changes to a couple of costumes in the final product, prompting accusations of censorship from publisher Sony.
