Naughty Dog Creative Director Weighs in on Uncharted Movie
During a panel today at DICE Summit 2018, Naughty Dog creative director Neil Druckmann shared his thoughts on the upcoming Uncharted movie and why he’s pleased with the approach director Shawn Levy is taking with the project.
Rather than trying to retell the games, the Uncharted film will feature a storyline about a younger Nathan Drake, played by Spider-Man actor Tom Holland, which Druckmann believes is ultimately the better option.
“We’ve had some conversations with Shawn Levy, and he’s really passionate, gets it, and I think he understands where we’re at,” he said. Druckmann went on to note that Naughty Dog’s feelings about film adaptations of its games has evolved over the years, and now the studio would rather see new ideas on the big screen rather than a direct adaptation of one of its games.

You Can Soon Trick Out Your Fortnite: Battle Royale Character’s Back
Epic Games has been adding a bunch of new content to Fortnite, especially as the game’s popularity has continued to rise. In the Season 3 Battle Pass for the Battle Royale mode, for example, the developer is releasing some new cosmetic items, such as emotes, loading screens, outfits–and Back Blings.
You read that right: Epic is adding a new customization option for your Hero that modifies the appearance of its back. Basically, anything that a character holds on its back is now part of this option, so you’ll be able to change out previously permanent characteristics like the Love Ranger’s wings or the Knights’ shields.
Any character can use Back Bling, and there are three new Blings being added in the Battle Pass. This new option will probably enable some pretty wild combinations with the different Heroes and their skins.
The Season 3 Battle Pass costs 950 V-Bucks, which is about $10. It comes with 76 items in all; along with the 3 Back Blings, you’ll also get a bunch of emoticons, banners, and other cosmetics. You can read more about what the Battle Pass comes with here. Season 2 wraps up soon, so the new Battle Pass should go on sale this week.
In other news, Epic will soon add a brand new gun, the Hand Cannon, to the game. In addition, a new patch for Fortnite launched recently on PS4, Xbox One, and PC that comes with the Impulse Grenade.
