Valve has officially opened up orders for its official Steam Deck docking station.

The Steam page for the official docking station lists the accessory for $89 with an estimated delivery date of 1-2 weeks. The official Steam Deck docking station features three USB 3.1 ports, one HDMI 2.0 port, a DisplayPort 1.4, and a Gigabit Ethernet jack.

This is not the only docking station available for the Steam Deck, as third-party makers like JSAUX and iVoler released similar accessories for Valve's portable gaming PC at a retail price cheaper than what Valve is asking for.

The docking station was originally supposed to release back earlier this year. But in June, Valve delayed the release of the docking station to an undisclosed release window, citing a shortage of parts along with COVID-related closures at its manufacturing facilities as reasons.

PlatinumGames says that it is sorry about the impending shutdown of Babylon's Fall’s servers, but also notes that it will not impact any future live-service plans.

In an interview with VGC, PlatinumGames CEO Atsushi Inaba said, “The only thing we can comment on here in terms of the closure of Babylon’s Fall service itself, is that this unfortunate conclusion might have been something that had triggered some disappointment, perhaps maybe even anger, to our dedicated fans and players.”

He continued, “And any disappointment that we might have caused for our fan base is something we feel extremely sorry about, the fact that we led our dedicated fans to feel that way as a developer. Providing any sentiment other than enjoyment and fun in our creations to players is something that we’re not very happy about at all as a developer.”

Inaba, unfortunately, was unable to go into any specifics about Babylon's Fall’s shutdown, noting that it was up to Square Enix to divulge any further details about it.

However, despite the game's failure, PlatinumGames still wants to invest in live-service games. “There’s a lot that we learned from this experience, and it’s not changed our future plans or outlook moving forward regarding doing live service games at all. Live service games are definitely something we do want to do and put our effort in moving forward,” Inaba explains.

He further explains that live service games have two pillars: the fun gameplay mechanics and the live service elements. Both need to be strongly aligned in order to create a good experience.

He concludes, “Otherwise, if one of these is valued over the other or if they’re not connected, things usually don’t turn out the way we would have wanted them to. We want to focus on keeping that connection and that balance between those two pillars moving forward.”

Babylon’s Fall was released earlier this year in February to negative reviews, and the studio recently announced that the online servers would close a year later on February 28, 2023.

Google just wrapped its big hardware event to finally give us the full reveal of the Pixel Watch, the company's first-ever self-made wearable. The Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro were also announced with much fanfare around their enhanced cameras and new styling. And the Pixel Tablet made a surprise appearance with its new functionality as a smart home hub. If you missed the big event, here's everything Google announced today.

Google Pixel Watch

Google kicked off the show by introducing the Google Pixel Watch, the company's first-ever wearable. The Pixel Watch features a round watch face, unlike the Apple Watch Series 8 and Apple Watch Ultra's squircle-shaped screen. It also features a unique band attachment mechanism without any visible lugs. Instead, you attach the watch band to the top and bottom of the wearable and rotate it to lock it in place, similar to how a camera lens attaches to a camera body.

The Pixel Watch also brings deep Fitbit integration to track your workouts and health data. Google claims it will deliver the most accurate once-per-second heart rate tracking yet. Plus, it features 40 exercise modes and a built-in GPS. For sleep tracking, you'll be able to see your sleep score and stages, and there's an ECG app that can detect signs of Atrial Fibrillation.

The Google Pixel Watch comes in a Bluetooth/Wi-Fi or 4G LTE model priced at $349 and $399, respectively. It also includes six months of Fitbit Premium and three months of YouTube Music Premium. The Google Pixel Watch is available for preorder today and will arrive on October 13.

Google Pixel 7

The Google Pixel 7 is here, and it looks classier than ever with a sophisticated and durable aluminum chassis. It features a slightly smaller 6.3-inch, 1080p display compared to the Pixel 6's 6.4-inch screen, but it also has slimmer bezels. According to Google, the 90Hz display on this new phone is also 25% brighter.

As for internal power, this phone comes rocking Google's new Tensor G2 processor with 8GB of RAM. That new processor helps power faster computations, halving the time it takes to shoot Night Sight photos. Additionally, there are new camera tricks like face unblur and Cinematic Blur in video mode.

The Pixel 7 also has a slightly smaller capacity battery, but it promises 24-hour battery life and 48 hours of usage with Extreme Battery Saver. 30W charging is also supported over wired and wireless.

As for cameras, the Pixel 7 still features a 50-megapixel camera, but no you can use a 2x zoom mode that digitally crops in using the 12-megapixels at the center of the sensor. The selfie camera on the Pixel 7 has also been upgraded to a 10.8 sensor, the same one found in the Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 7 Pro.

The Pixel 7 is available for preorder now for $599, and it will arrive on October 13.

Google Pixel 7 Pro

The Pixel 7 Pro has seen quite a lot of changes, especially on the camera front. Like the Pixel 7, the Pixel 7 Pro features the same main 50MP camera with the added 2x digital zoom trick. The telephoto has been upgraded to 5x optical zoom, and the 48MP sensor can digitally zoom up to 10x. What's more, you can combine the digital zoom capabilities of both cameras for up to 30x telephoto. Additionally, the ultrawide camera features an even wider 125-degree field of view, plus autofocus and macro-mode shooting.

Also similar to the Pixel 7, the Pixel 7 Pro features a 0.1-inch shorter display to make this 6.7-inch device a little less thick. The display features a 3120 x 1440 OLED panel with a maximum 120Hz refresh rate. The Pixel 7 Pro also features the new Tensor G2 chip plus a bit more memory at 12GB. As for the battery, the Pixel 7 Pro offers 5000 mAh of capacity, which Google claims will offer a 24-hour battery life.

The Google Pixel 7 Pro is available for preorder starting at $899 and will ship on October 13.

Google Pixel Tablet

The Google Pixel Tablet popped up during the latest Made By Google event. There's still no new information about screen size or many other internal specs other than it currently runs a Tensor G2 processor. However, we got to see how it can magnetically attach to a speaker base and become a Nest Hub. Google also revealed the Pixel Tablet will come in two colors; off-white and olive green. Google once again confirmed the Pixel Tablet will arrive in 2023.

High on Life, the upcoming comedy-FPS from Rick & Morty co-creator Justin Roiland and his Squanch Games development studio, has revealed its voice cast, and it features Rick & Morty alums, stand-up comedians, sketch comedy legends, prominent video game voice actors, and many other funny and talented people.

Roiland plays your first talking gun, the pistol-like Kenny (who sounds quite a bit like Morty). Curb Your Enthusiasm's JB Smoove voices the shotgun-esque talking gun Gus. Comedian Betsy Sodaro plays Sweezy, the Halo-Needler-like gun you can see in our exclusive 12-minute gameplay video from earlier this week. Tim Robinson, from Netflix's I Think You Should Leave, plays Creature. The Sarah Silverman Program costar Laura Silverman voices Lizzie, while MadTV alum Dave Herman plays Gene, the alien at your house who gives you your bounty-hunter missions. The bloodthirsty Knifey is played by YouTube cartoonist Michael Cusack. Other notable names in the cast include Kids in the Hall troupe member Kevin McDonald, stand-up comedian Maria Bamford, Nathan Drake voice actor Nolan North, Solar Opposites costar Thomas Middleditch, prominent video game voice actresses Jennifer Hale and Tara Strong, and more. Get a look at some of these characters in the concept art gallery below.

High on Life will be released on December 13 for PC and Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles, including day-one availability in Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass. We got our first proper look at gameplay back in August at Gamescom – where it totally blew up. We'll have more exclusive coverage all October long as our IGN First "cover story" on High on Life continues.

Ryan McCaffrey is IGN's executive editor of previews and host of both IGN's weekly Xbox show, Podcast Unlocked, as well as our monthly(-ish) interview show, IGN Unfiltered. He's a North Jersey guy, so it's "Taylor ham," not "pork roll." Debate it with him on Twitter at @DMC_Ryan.

Between server errors, broken account merges, and a strange SMS requirement that locked some players with prepaid phone plans out of the game, Overwatch 2's launch on Tuesday became fairly controversial. Now, Blizzard is apologizing and working to fix some of these issues.

In a post on Blizzard's forum, community manager Jodie apologized for the game's launch and detailed some of the ways the team is working to fix these issues.

"First, we want to apologize to our players. We expected the launch of Overwatch 2 to go smoothly," the post reads. "We hold ourselves to a higher standard and we are working hard to resolve the issues you are experiencing."

Overwatch 2 introduced a requirement for players to connect a phone number, which oddly doesn't allow prepaid phone plans. The post explains that Overwatch players with connected Battle.net accounts won't need to provide a phone number starting on Friday. However, it doesn't apppear that Blizzard has entirely removed this requirement.

Blizzard is also working to improve server stability — after countless players dealt with crashes, lengthy queues and difficulty logging in, it's now working on numerous ways to stabilize these servers, including patching the login server and adding nodes to the player database to lessen the load.

Finally, some players who merged multiple accounts dealt with missing inventory items. To combat this, Blizzard is now rolling out a UI fix to prompt more players to merge their accounts. The company is also assuring players it hasn't lost any of their data — in many cases, it's just taking a long time to merge over to Overwatch 2.

It's been a rough launch, including multiple DDoS attacks on release day, but the game itself remains more than solid. We gave Overwatch 2 an 8/10 in our review, calling it a "very fun team-based FPS, packed full of charm and love for the world it takes place in."
