Apex Legends has launched both Season 9 and a new permanent 3v3 mode called Arena, and its popularity has caused server issues that are keeping players from experiencing the new content.

Apex Legends developer Respawn has already said that it is working on a fix, and its most recent update at 11:35pm PT on May 4 has confirmed that it is “seeing some progress but we aren’t out of the weeds yet. Will keep you updated!”

In addition to Arena, Season 9 also brings with it a new legend named Valkyrie, who is also known as Kairi Imahara. She is the daughter of Viper, a Titan Pilot from Titanfall 2 who was also a member of Blisk’s Apex Predators mercenary group.

There will also be a new Bocek Bow medium-range weapon, changes to Apex Legends’ map Olympus, and various changes to existing Legends.

Titanfall fans will also be happy to know that this current season will feature “a ton of Titanfall coming back into the game, one way or another.”

As Spider-Man: No Way Home inches closer to its December 17 release, rumors have continued to circulate that the upcoming sequel will unite Tom Holland’s Peter Parker alongside Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield’s versions of the character. Now, months after it was reported that the two actors would return to the property, Garfield has offered his thoughts on the casting rumors on the Happy Sad Confused podcast.

“It’s so crazy… Dude, it’s f—ing hilarious,” Garfield said. “I do have this Twitter account and I see how often Spider-Man is trending and it’s people freaking out about a thing… I wish I could be able to speak to everyone and just say, ‘I recommend that you chill.”

[ignvideo url=”https://www.ign.com/videos/2021/02/25/spider-man-no-way-home-what-the-title-reveals-about-the-mcu-sequel”]

Garfield compared the public’s reaction to social deduction games like Mafia and Werewolf, in which players must identify those among them with hidden roles.

“You’re convincing everyone you’re not in the mafia. I feel like I’m in a f—ing game,” Garfield said. “I promise you I am not the werewolf. And everyone is like, ‘You’re the werewolf! You’re the f—ing werewolf!'”

Podcast host Josh Horowitz then asked Garfield for a simple “yes or no” on his involvement in the movie. The actor offered a somewhat tentative response.

“I did not get a call. Listen, I would’ve gotten a call by now,” Garfield said. “I don’t want to rule anything out. Maybe they want to call me. Maybe they’re going to call me and say, ‘Hey, people want this.'”

Though Garfield did not offer a straight answer, another actor has been notably candid about his attachment to Spider-Man: No Way Home. Last month, Spider-Man 2’s Alfred Molina described his experience reprising the role of Dr. Otto Octavius, or Doctor Octopus, for the film.

Additionally, Jamie Foxx’s Electro will also be making a return in No Way Home. The character did battle with Garfield’s Peter Parker in 2014’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Foxx’s and Molina’s returns, as well as the reported involvement of Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange, tease a potential multiverse crossover across Spider-Man iterations.

Despite the return of their adversaries, both Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield have not been confirmed for the cast of No Way Home. Tom Holland strongly dismissed rumors of both actors’ involvement in the project in February.

The NPD Group has revealed the top 10 best-selling Star Wars games in the US from January 1995 through March 2021, and 2015’s Star Wars Battlefront has earned the #1 spot.

In celebration of Star Wars Day, The NPD Group’s Mat Piscatella shared this top 10 list, which is based on dollar sales and includes physical and full game digital sales from the Nintendo eShop, PlayStation, Steam, and Xbox platforms.

[ignvideo url=”https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/11/19/your-top-star-wars-games-power-ranking”]

While the exact amount earned wasn’t revealed for the games, it was confirmed that Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and 2017’s Star Wars Battlefront 2 took the #2 and #3 spot, respectively.

The full list of the top 10 best-selling Star Wars games is as follows;

1. Star Wars: Battlefront (2015)
2. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
3. Star Wars: Battlefront 2 (2017)
4. LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga
5. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
6. Star Wars: Battlefront 2 (2005)
7. LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy
8. LEGO Star Wars
9. Star Wars: Battlefront (2004)
10. Star Wars: Shadow of the Empire

[widget path=”global/article/imagegallery” parameters=”albumSlug=every-ign-star-wars-game-review&captions=true”]

Despite its everlasting popularity, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is notably missing from this list, as are LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens and LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars, despite how well the other LEGO Star Wars games have done.

Piscatella notes that this list included 106 titles, including “a handful of bundles and oddities.”

Considering the top three best-selling Star Wars games have been released in the last six years, the future is bright for games that take place in that galaxy far, far away.

We already know we will soon be getting LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, and Lucasfilm Games has revealed that Ubisoft has an open world Star Wars game currently in development.

Tattoos are expensive, so if you’re looking for a cheaper way to show your love for Resident Evil Village’s Lady Dimitrescu on your bod, try the incoming merch from Fangamer instead. It’s launching this summer but isn’t available for preorder just yet.

Anyone trying to rep Lady D has two upcoming pieces of merch to look forward to. The first is a simple grey T-shirt with a stylized Lady Dimitrescu standing tall on the front. She’s backlit by a large moon that’s been slashed by her monstrous claws. When it launches, this shirt will cost customers $28. Customers will also get a bonus sticker of the vampiress with this shirt.

The second new piece of merch coming to Fangamer is for the folks who don’t really care for how tall Lady Dimitrescu is. For $14, customers can get a set of two chibi pins featuring Resident Evil Village’s vampires. One is a simple version of Lady Dimitrescu raising her massive clawed hand, while the other depicts her daughters surrounded by small, cartoon flies.

Fangamer is also releasing a third piece of merch, a long-sleeved shirt. Instead of Lady Dimitrescu, you’ll find an intricate, somewhat off-putting design based on the game. The long-sleeved shirt depicts a wreath of dried sticks surrounding what seems to be a calcified fetus with four black wings sprouting out of it at different angles. It’s an extremely Resident Evil shirt, and can eventually be purchased for $39.

Resident Evil Village is set to launch on May 7 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Stadia. It’s also not too late to get your Resident Evil Village preorder in. If you’re looking for a deal on the game, Green Man Gaming is currently offering preorders of Resident Evil Village on PC for $51.
