Just days before Ubisoft’s E3 2019 press conference (and shortly after an Amazon UK leak), the publisher confirmed its event would include a reveal of Watch Dogs Legion, the third installment in its Watch Dogs franchise. During Ubisoft’s press conference on June 10, the company showed off quite a bit of gameplay and announced Watch Dogs Legion will release March 6, 2020 for PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Stadia.

While the first two games took place in Chicago and San Francisco, respectively, Watch Dogs Legion moves the setting to a near-future, dystopian London. Interestingly, Legion will let players “recruit” and take control of any NPC in the game, and your character choice will actually affect how the game plays out.

Whether you’re new to Watch Dogs or a longtime fan of the series, you might be wondering where you can pre-order Watch Dogs Legion now (that’s why you’re here, right?). Here’s all the info you need before pre-ordering, including details on Watch Dogs Legion’s pre-order bonuses and Collector’s edition.

Watch Dogs Legion pre-order bonuses

Pre-order Watch Dogs Legion, and you’ll receive the Gold King Pack, which includes a Lux Car Skin, Uneasy Lies Mask Skin, and Serpent Sisters Gun Skin, with any version you choose. My Best Buy members will also get $10 reward credit when pre-ordering from Best Buy.

Pre-order Watch Dogs Legion standard edition

Only interested in the base game? Then the standard edition is the one you’ll want. You’ll also receive any applicable pre-order bonuses.

Pre-order Watch Dogs Legion Gold edition

Pre-order Watch Dogs Legion Collector’s edition

Finally, you’ve got the Collector’s edition, which adds in a Lighting Ded Coronet Mask (38 cm), an exclusive steelbook, a double-sided propaganda poster, and three stickers on top of everything in the Ultimate edition. Grab your copy quickly, as these Collector’s editions sell out quickly.

Ubisoft announced a new free-to-play 3v3 competitive game called Roller Champions during its E3 2019 press conference. It’s set to release early 2020 on PC, but a playable pre-alpha demo is available on Uplay for Windows PC, from now through June 14 at 6 AM PT.

At first glance, Roller Champions plays much like the actual sport of roller derby. Up to three players compete to make laps around an elliptical arena to gain speed and rack up points. The goal is to score five points, which can only be done when the goal opens after making a lap around the arena. After a single lap, a score through the goal nets one point, but if you make two or three laps, you score three and five points respectively. However, if the opposing team tackles you or your teammates and possesses the ball at any time as you’re building up laps, the potential points you can earn will reset.

The dynamic of Roller Champions seems reminiscent to Rocket League, focusing on high-energy competitive action. You can see how it looks in the gameplay video above.

As you get more wins, you’ll accumulate more fans, which unlocks customization items like new gear, animations, outfits, and more. This feeds into your progression overall, encouraging you to participate in games and earn more rewards.

E3 2019 is in full swing and FIFA 20 has been announced, but back here in the UK it’s last year’s football title, FIFA 19, that’s reaping the rewards. The existing FIFA game has risen to No.1 in the UK physical sales chart for the week ending June 8, according to sales monitor Chart-Track.

Following closely behind at No.2 is PS4 exclusive Days Gone. In fact, PlayStation titles are littered throughout the chart, thanks in part to Sony’s Days of Play sale. Spider-Man finishes at No.3, for instance, while Blood & Truth is at No.5 and PSVR Worlds is at No.10.

You can read the full top 10 sales chart for this week below, courtesy of UKIE and GfK Chart-Track. Note this table does not include digital sales data, and so should not be considered representative of all UK game sales.

While FIFA 19 is still charting well, much of the footballing attention over the weekend was focused on its successor. FIFA 20 is adding a new Volta Mode, which channels the street football energy of FIFA Street. The mode won’t, however, come to Nintendo Switch, whose FIFA 20 port lacks “any of the big features.” FIFA 20’s release date has been set for September 27.

1. FIFA 19
2. Days Gone
3. Spider-Man
4. Red Dead Redemption 2
5. Blood & Truth
6. Grand Theft Auto V
7. Team Sonic Racing
8. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
9. Mortal Kombat 11
10. PSVR Worlds

Microsoft’s E3 2019 press conference brought an onslaught of gaming news, and one of the biggest tidbits was the existence of the previously rumored Xbox Scarlett console. The company also showed off a new trailer for Halo Infinite and confirmed the game would come to Xbox Scarlett in Holiday 2020. However, the publisher did not say at the time whether Infinite would still come to Xbox One and PC, as was previously announced.

Following the conference, Microsoft reassured fans the shooter was indeed coming to its current-gen machine. In a post on the Xbox wire, the official blog’s editor-in-chief Will Tuttle listed Halo Infinite for Project Scarlett, Xbox One, and Windows 10.

Halo Infinite was shown off for the first time since E3 2018 with its new trailer, but we still haven’t seen any gameplay. We subsequently learned the game will stay dark until E3 2020, so we won’t be learning much about the game until next year. What we did find out is that the game will focus on Master Chief, whose primary focus will be “mysteries surrounding the appearance of The Pilot and the desolate remains of a Halo ring.” Microsoft also reiterated that Infinite runs on 343 Industries’ “next-generation” game engine, known as Slipspace.

Halo Infinite and Xbox Scarlett will launch Holiday 2020. A more specific release date was not shared, nor were any further details on what to expect from the game. Take a look at more news from E3 2019–as well as the remaining scheduled press conferences–below.

More News

It’s almost the halfway point in June, and while you may be running out of things to binge on your favorite streaming service, don’t worry because every week, there’s something new to watch. This week, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, and the horror-themed Shudder all have tons of new content for you to check out.

Starting with Amazon Prime Video, there are only a few new selections this week. First, on Thursday, June 13, the Natalie Portman/Ashton Kutcher comedy No Strings Attached hits the service. A day later, the 2009 crime drama starring Jamie Fox and Gerard Butler Law Abiding Citizen releases. It’s a light week for Amazon.

Over on Hulu, there is quite a bit more to choose from. On Monday, June 10, you can watch Christian Bale look unrecognizable as former Vice President Dick Cheney in the 2019 film Vice. If you’re looking for a TV season to binge, you have to check out Syfy’s 12 Monkeys. All of Season 4 arrives on Saturday, June 15. However, avoid I Still See you on June 11. It has a decent premise, but the movie is abysmal.

Finally, Shudder has a couple of new movies to give you the heebie-jeebies, both releasing on June 10. First is Hagazussa, which is the story of an orphan in a 15th century Alpine village who uses her supernatural abilities to reign terror on the cruel. Additionally, the 2013 movie Here Comes the Devil follows two children who go missing in some Mexican caves for an evening. They return the next day, but something sinister has changed within them.
