Unless you’ve been avoiding any of the new story-centric trailers for Destiny 2‘s upcoming Forsaken DLC expansion, you know Cayde-6 is in a bad way. A new trailer for Forsaken that debuted at Gamescom 2018 has revealed exactly what precipitated our previous look at Cayde’s apparent final moments. And if Destiny’s most interesting character has to go out, at least he’s doing so like a badass.

Created in collaboration with Blur Studio, the trailer shows Cayde fighting off numerous enemies who have escaped the Prison of Elders. While he’s often used as the comic relief (thanks to the excellent voice acting of Nathan Fillion, who has been replaced), here he’s fighting for his life. And while he holds his own for a while, his Ghost is ultimately destroyed and he finds himself on death’s door.

We’ll have to wait for Forsaken to find out exactly how things play out from here and if Bungie has some kind of swerve up its sleeve. The DLC will bring much more than just a possible conclusion to the tale of Cayde; this is the biggest expansion to date, appearing to be on par with the original Destiny’s acclaimed Taken King DLC. It includes new superclasses and Supers, weapons and gear, locations, and more.

Another big component of Forsaken is Gambit, a hybrid PvP/PvE mode that was revealed back at E3. Those eager to try it fortunately won’t have to wait to do so, as a limited-time free trial will be held just ahead of Forsaken’s launch. PS4, Xbox One, and PC players who own the game will be able to jump into Gambit on September 1 at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET / 6 PM BST until the same time on September 2.

Forsaken releases on September 4. Unlike the first two DLC expansions, it’s not included in the original Expansion Pass. You can read more in our Forsaken pre-order guide.

A new month means a slew of new streaming options on Amazon Prime Video. With so many new TV and film titles to choose from, it might be pretty hard to figure out what the cream is that will rise above the crop. That’s where GameSpot comes in.

After sifting through the release calendar for a new month of Amazon Prime Video additions, we have the highlights you aren’t going to want to miss. So sit back, put your feet up, and get ready to welcome summer with the best of what’s to come in September.

As far as TV goes, there’s really only one title you need to keep your eyes on and that’s Kidding. The new Showtime series features Jim Carrey as the star of a children’s show whose personal life if anything but kid-friendly. As his life begins to crumble, the man who has relied on the imaginary world he has built for his show now faces a harsh reality. Given that this is a Showtime series, it will require you to add a subscription to the premium cable network onto your Amazon Prime Video account to watch.

There’s also a new Amazon original series starring SNL alums Fred Armisen and Maya Rudolph premiering, titled Forever. The show follows the two as a married couple attempting to spice up what’s become a pretty boring life by taking a ski trip that lands them in “completely unfamiliar territory.”

While there are a number of great films coming to the service, as well, the most exciting is surely the original Ghostbusters. The supernatural comedy is the perfect thing to sit down and watch, regardless of how many times you’ve seen it. Luckily, Ghostbusters II is also being added, so you can have your own little double feature.

Other films arriving that we’re excited about include Primal Fear and There Will Be Blood. As for originals, a new adaptation of King Lear starring Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson will also debut this month.

You can take a look at all of our recommendations for Amazon Prime Video in September above, or check out the full list of everything coming and going in September. You also don’t want to miss Netflix and Hulu’s offerings for the month.

Taking feedback from the Rainbow Six Siege Test Server for Operation Grim Sky, Ubisoft is implementing balancing patches for a few of the game’s Operators. One of the two new Grim Sky Operators, Maverick, is getting the most changes.

Players must have felt Maverick was too effective an Operator, as all of his changes are nerfs. His smoke grenade is being replaced with a stun grenade and his blowtorch’s volume is being made louder so that he can no longer easily hide where he’s cutting. Maverick’s blowtorch is also being made weaker against barbed wire, so the process of destroying it takes about twice as long as before. Ubisoft has heard that players want Maverick’s blowtorch to run through fuel faster and have a shorter range as well, but the developer is holding off on changing either for now.

In comparison, Operation Grim Sky’s other Operator, Clash, is getting no changes. Ubisoft reports that the team will continue to monitor her performance going forward, though.

Three of Siege’s older Operators are getting changes. Zofia is losing one of her concussion grenades, so it’s harder for her to single-handedly take over a room without a strategy. Glaz is also getting nerfed. A recent bug in Siege prevents him from being able to destroy Castle’s armored panels and Ubisoft has decided to keep it. Ubisoft is also planning a patch down the line to prevent Glaz from shooting through the panels entirely. Hibana is the only Operator getting a buff. She can now destroy a hatch with four of her pellets, instead of six.

Ubisoft has heard feedback concerning the length of Dokkaebi’s phone calls, but the team is passing on implementing any changes for her at this time.

Weapon recoil is also getting patched. Ubisoft is focusing on shotgun recoil for now. An update won’t be ready by the time Grim Sky launches, but Ubisoft will implement one before the new season is over. Ubisoft is also monitoring machine pistol recoil but has nothing planned for now.

The full patch notes for the updates coming to Operation Grim Sky prior to the expansion’s launch can be found on Siege’s website. Although it is not included on the game’s website, Siege tweeted out another change coming to Grim Sky: partial destruction to hatch reinforcements. This balances the meta of the game a little bit back towards the Attackers, who can now eventually get to hidden Defenders with enough explosives.

Operation Grim Sky launches this September. Rainbow Six Siege is available on Xbox One, PS4, and PC.

If there’s one thing Nintendo fans could use more of in their lives, it’s Nintendo-themed gear. We’re talking everything from wristwatches and wall hangings to hand puppets and flasks. If that’s the kind of thing that satisfies your consumer needs, you’re in luck: this week, Nintendo-themed merchandise is on sale at ThinkGeek. Let’s take a look at the kinds of Nintendo deals you can take advantage of right now.

Zelda fans have plenty of items to choose from. You can get a fancy watch with a leather strap for half price at $30. If you like Link’s satchel in Breath of the Wild, you can pick up a similar one for $18 that’s big enough to carry more than just a Sheikah slate. And who wouldn’t want to sleep in pajamas modeled after Link’s outfit? You can also get some nice discounts on Zelda-themed shirts for women and men. There’s even a Zelda sports bra and holiday sweater.

It would hardly be a Nintendo sale if Mario fans didn’t have anything to buy, so of course you can get some cool gear inspired by the Mushroom Kingdom. In terms of puppets–and who doesn’t want a puppet?–you can get Bowser ($13) or a Piranha Plant ($10). Or how about a cookie jar shaped like a question block for $17? Or a 1-Up plush for $15? And they’re calling it a “canteen,” but this container shaped like a Super Mario Bros. cartridge is clearly a flask made for hiding your booze.

General Nintendo fans can pick up a shirt with an SNES controller on it that says “Made in the Nineties” or a coffee canister that’s shaped like a Game Boy. There’s a lot more Nintendo gear on sale here, so check out ThinkGeek’s deals page to find the item that’s right for you.

Here’s a game you should probably download if you haven’t already bought it. For Honor: Starter Edition is free on Steam between now and August 27. This isn’t one of those free play weekends where you lose access after a couple of days, either. If you download the game, you can keep and play it forever.

For Honor is quite a bit different from most other games on the market. It’s an online melee brawler that pits three factions of warriors against one another: Vikings, Knights, and Samurai. All of the heroes have unique fighting styles, and the combat system is deep and intricate.

The version that’s free right now on Steam is the Starter Edition, which typically sells for $15. As such, it’s more limited than the pricier versions you can also purchase. The Starter Edition comes with all the core content of the game–the single-player campaign and all the multiplayer modes and maps are there. What’s missing are most of the heroes.

For Honor launched with 12 hero characters. The Starter Edition comes with three heroes fully unlocked (one from each faction). You also get to choose three additional heroes to make “playable.” Unlike the fully unlocked heroes, you can’t customize these characters with new outfits unless you spend 8,000 Steel (the in-game currency) on each one. The six additional heroes that launched with the game cost 8,000 Steel each to fully unlock.

Since the game launched, Ubisoft has introduced six additional heroes to the game. Unlocking these characters costs 15,000 Steel each. (A new faction comprised of four more characters is coming with the Marching Fire update on October 16).

You can buy Steel for real-life money or acquire it through gameplay. Ubisoft says earning 8,000 Steel requires an in-game purchase of $8 or between eight and 15 hours of play time. Even if you don’t want to do the mental gymnastics to figure out what it would take to unlock all the characters, you can still pick up For Honor: Starter Edition for free right now to try it out.
