Resident Evil 2 Remake Ships 4 Million Copies

The Resident Evil 2 remake continues to perform well commercially. The game has now shipped 4 million copies globally, Capcom announced in a news release today. This is up from the 3 million copies that the game shipped during its first week.

The increased sales of Resident Evil 2 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC pushed total Resident Evil franchise sales to more than 90 million units since the series debuted in 1996 as of February 26, 2019. This is up from 88 million units back in January.

The 1998 original Resident Evil 2 reached sales of 4.96 million copies to stand as the fourth best-selling Resident Evil game, so the remake is coming up on that milestone.

Resident Evil 2’s free DLC, Ghost Survivors, was released on February 15. GameSpot’s Resident Evil 2 review called it “a terrifying experience like no other.”

“Resident Evil 2 is not only a stellar remake of the original, but it’s also simply a strong horror game that delivers anxiety-inducing and grotesque situations, topping some of the series’ finest entries,” wrote critic Alessandro Fillari. “But above all, the remake is an impressive game for the fact that it goes all-in on the pure survival horror experience, confidently embracing its horrifying tone and rarely letting up until the story’s conclusion.”

Topher Grace’s Star Wars “Mega-Trailer” Cuts Together 10 Movies

Topher Grace is not only the actor who starred on That ’70s Show and more recently in the Oscar-winning movie BlacKkKlansman. He also does editing work, and his most recent project was a big one. Collaborating with editor Jeff Yorkes, Grace created a five-minute “mega-trailer” for Star Wars that combines footage from all 10 live-action Star Wars movies, including Rogue One and Solo.

“10 movies. 2 nerds. 1 weekend (when our wives were out of town). Enjoy…” Grace wrote on Twitter. Yorkes added, “Why don’t studios make ‘mega-trailers,’ tying all the movies of one franchise together, reminding you why you fell in love in the first place? Wouldn’t that kick ass?! Well, that’s what my pal Topher Grace and I thought…”

Titled Star Wars: Always, the trailer is slick with its use of memorable scenes and music that, even when stitched together in this non-traditional format, combine together nicely. It follows Luke’s journey as its through-line, mostly. Check it out below.

The next Star Wars movie is Episode IX, which hits theatres in December. The film recently finished filming. “It feels impossible, but today wrapped photography on Episode IX,” director JJ Abrams said earlier in February. “There is no adequate way to thank this truly magical crew and cast. I’m forever indebted to you all.”

Beyond Episode IX, which is the third and final instalment in the new trilogy that began with The Force Awakens, Lucasfilm is producing a new trilogy from Rian Johnson. Outside of that, there will be a new Star Wars TV show called The Mandalorian.

Warner Bros. Shuts Down Fan Campaign to Edit Rat Ending of The Departed

A fan-led campaign to change the ending of The Departed has come to an end.

Adam Sacks, the man behind the Kickstarter campaign to fund a cut of the movie that does not feature the rat, announced on Twitter that the campaign had come to an end after Warner Bros. alleged the campaign infringed on its intellectual property.

“In order to comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Kickstarter had no choice but to take down my project to digitally erase the rat from the end of The Departed,” Sacks wrote in his note on Twitter.

Devotion Review

Some horror games offer little more than cheap jump-scares and buckets of gore, but Devotion is the kind of psychological horror with the potential to keep you thinking for weeks after you’ve beaten it. It’s expertly-paced and doesn’t stick around long enough for its mechanical simplicity to overstay its welcome, but in that three hours delivers a powerfully unsettling story. And it does it all without ever having a single fully animated character on screen for more than a few seconds.

In Devotion, you take on the role of screenwriter Du Feng Yu as he experiences a surreal journey through the past in order to unravel the threads of what happened to his wife and daughter. Similar to other first-person horror games, like P.T., Devotion mostly takes place in the family’s modest apartment home. It’s a choice of setting that makes room for excellent character development as you discover mementos and items across multiple years within the home, effectively telling the family’s story.

How Xbox Game Pass on Switch Benefits Microsoft, Nintendo, and Players

The rumor that Microsoft’s Game Pass service could make its way onto the Nintendo Switch came as a shock. It would make for an unprecedented change in the gaming landscape, marking a new era of partnerships in a traditionally segmented industry.

But with Microsoft already letting slip its plans to bolster this relationship with the possibility of Xbox Live coming to Nintendo Switch, a deeper partnership could hugely benefit both companies involved and what players can expect for years to come.

Black Ops 4’s Operation Grand Heist Update Out Now On Xbox One And PC

Treyarch has rolled out another update for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. Following its arrival on PS4 last week, the big Operation Grand Heist update is now live on Xbox One and PC, bringing a new character, maps, weapons, and more to both platforms.

First, the update adds a new Specialist for multiplayer and Blackout modes: Outrider. She can be unlocked in Tier 1 in the Black Market, and just as in Black Ops 3, her weapon is the Sparrow, which can fire explosive arrows. Her Hawk drone can also tag any enemies in its sights.

The update also brings three new weapons for multiplayer: the Switchblade X9 SMG, Rampage full-auto shotgun, and Cha-Ching money bag melee weapon. These likewise can be unlocked through the Black Market. Black Ops Pass holders also get access to two additional multiplayer maps, Lockup and Casino.

Elsewhere, the island in Blackout has been expanded with a new area, Ghost Town. Its aboveground portion is based on the Outlaw map, while the caverns below ground are inspired by the Zombies map Buried. Black Ops Pass holders also get access to another new character, the Zombie gorilla Cosmic Silverback.

Rounding out the update is a new Gauntlet for Zombies mode as well as new Featured Playlists in multiplayer, including One in the Chamber. Players have three lives and a single bullet in this mode; when they shoot an enemy or hit them with melee attacks, they’ll earn another bullet and 100 points. You can read the full patch notes on Reddit.
