Cyberpunk 2077’s next-gen update is now available and Netflix is making a Bioshock movie.
A few bits of exciting news to dive into today, including the launch of Cyberpunk 2077's next-gen update and the announcement of a Bioshock movie being produced by Netflix. There's also a new batch of games heading to Game Pass and some Horizon Forbidden West Lego to get excited about. More info down below.
Those waiting for Cyberpunk 2077's next-gen update before exploring the streets of Night City can jump in right now as CD Projekt Red shadow dropped the update earlier today. Along with enhanced performance on PS5 and Xbox Series X, players can now experienced improved driving, faster loading times, and DualSense integration as well as the ability to customize their character whenever they like. The update is available right now, although there are reports of PlayStation users struggling to upgrade.
The second surprise announcement of the day came from Netflix as it announced it is currently working on a movie adaptation of BioShock. Not much more information was revealed other than the initial announcement, but we do know that the movie will be a retelling of the first game's plot and will take place in the underwater city of Rapture. The fact that we've been given very little info suggests that the film won't hit Netflix for a while, but it's something to look forward to.
Xbox Game Pass subscribers will have a bunch of new games to try out as Xbox has announced the titles coming to the service later this month. Heavy hitters include Madden NFL 22 and Total War: Warhammer 3, as well as Mass Effect Legendary Edition via the cloud. Smaller, cult titles like Lawn Mowing Simulator and Alice: Madness Returns will also be available. The full list and when you can download these games can be found here.
The release of Horizon Forbidden West draws ever closer, and now even Lego is getting in on the excitement. It was leaked as early as last year that Horizon Forbidden West would have a Lego set to accompany its release, and today it was confirmed, with a 13.5 inch Tallneck set that is sure to be tantalizing for every Horizon fan out there. The set isn't available until May later this year, but at least that gives you plenty of time with the game itself.
Finally, we have the news that indie-hit Terraria will be receiving its last ever update, at least that's what developers Re-Logic say. The Labor of Love update is expected to be the last for Terraria as the developers move onto new things, but that's exactly what was said after the Journey's End update last year. Still, at least Terraria fans get a bit more new content to dive into before the game is left alone for good.
Bing, what have you got against Serebii?
