Monster Hunter World Update 4.0 Adds New Elder Dragon

Monster Hunter World's latest free update, 4.0, is now out and it adds a new Elder Dragon, among a variety of gameplay changes.

Per Capcom's blog post, players can now take on the Empress of Flame, Lunastra, a returning Elder Dragon who has appeared in past Monster Hunter titles.

Lunastra is more aggressive than her male counterpart Teostra, with both able to fight side-by-side. Lunastra can also easily alter the environment, and teamwork is essential when trying to defeat her.

Taking down Lunastra will net players rare materials which can be used to craft special armor and weapons. These materials can also be combined with those from Nergigante and Xeno'jiiva, among other monsters.

Game of Thrones Finds New Way to Protect Season 8’s Secrets

HBO’s continuing efforts to combat leaks and keep the last season of Game of Thrones a secret now includes the use of vanishing scripts.

That’s at least according to Jaime Lannister himself, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, revealed during an interview with Elite Daily at the Cannes Film Festival.

“They’re very very strict. It’s reached a crazy level this year," Coster-Waldau said. "We actually get the scripts, and then when we’ve shot the scene — and we only have it digitally — and then when you’ve done the scene, it just vanishes. It’s like Mission: Impossible. 'This will self-destruct.'”

FIFA 19 for Nintendo Switch Will Have Improved Graphics

FIFA 19 will have improved graphics on Nintendo Switch despite not utilizing the Frostbite engine.

Per Dream Team, this year's entry will look a lot better than FIFA 18 on Switch and the game will run on a custom engine. However, there's still a chance FIFA titles on Switch might run on Frostbite in the future.

"I’m not closing the door on that possibility,” Andrei Lazarescu said, supervising producer for FIFA World Cup mode. “However we didn’t want to create a dumbed-down version of the Frostbite engine.

"The intent was never to have a one-off custom engine that were never going to touch again. It was to have that as a baseline and then build from there.”
