Here’s a left-fielder. Just Cause is coming to mobile in the form of a free-to-play action shooter set to be released on Android and iOS in 2021. Just Cause: Mobile will have both single player and multiplayer experiences which will bring the grappling, gliding, and shooting we all know from the Just Cause series to a top-down mobile experience. You can check out the trailer that premiered during The Game Awards below. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/12/11/just-cause-mobile-reveal-trailer"] Just Cause: Mobile will let players team up with friends online and compete in multiplayer and co-op challenges for upgrades and gear. Players will customize their own character and take them on a brand-new single player story campaign featuring cameos from favorite Just Cause characters. At launch there will be four modes. A story campaign where players will use their custom created characters to explore a large open-world in the Just Cause universe. There will also be a 30-player competitive multiplayer mode where three teams of 10 will fight to claim bases and earn points. Players can use both weapons and vehicles to take on enemy players. 4-player co-op is also available for select missions, or players can take part in Challenge Mode to test their destruction and racing abilities.

Actor Tommy ‘Tiny’ Lister has died at 62, reports Variety. Lister was found in his L.A. apartment and an investigation is underway. Lister’s entertainment career began in the 1980s, including an appearance opposite Hulk Hogan in the 1989 wrestling movie No Holds Barred as the heel, Zeus. A short stint in the WWE and the WCW followed, but it was his role as Deebo in F. Gary Gray’s 1995 film Friday that shot him to stardom.

A new Mass Effect was officially revealed during The Game Awards. The project is currently in "early production," according to BioWare. The reveal provided little information about what can be expected from Mass Effect's next chapter, though the teaser trailer ended on a shot of an asari who may be Liara. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/12/11/mass-effect-new-installment-announcement-trailer"] BioWare previously confirmed a "veteran team" was working on the next Mass Effect, though this is the first we've seen of it beyond concept art. The series' latest entry, Mass Effect Andromeda, was released in 2017 and is widely considered the weakest Mass Effect. IGN's review said Andromeda "only occasionally recaptures the series' brilliance, but delivers a vast and fun action-RPG." [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=mass-effect-next-chapter-game-award-trailer-screenshots&captions=true"] Ahead of the next Mass Effect, BioWare and EA will release Mass Effect Legendary Edition in Spring 2021 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. The long-rumored remastered collection of Mass Effect 1-3 was confirmed last month on N7 Day. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Jordan is a freelance writer for IGN.

SEGA and Amplitude Studios have revealed that Humankind, their upcoming turn-based historical strategy game, will be released on April 22, 2021 on Steam, the Epic Games Store, and Google Stadia. This news and a trailer were revealed at The Game Awards 2020 alongside a sneak peak at next week's Lucy OpenDev gameplay scenario. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=humankind-the-game-awards-2020-screenshots&captions=true"] From December 15-28, players who have pre-purchased Humankind on Steam will be able to play the Lucy OpenDev demo, which includes 40 cultures, land and sea battles, and diplomacy with up up to 7 AI opponents. The Lucy OpenDev will allow players to play through 4 full gameplay era or 150 turns, whichever comes first. Each era, one of 10 cultures can be chosen to play as, and each have their own unique gameplay attributes. Humankind will have players playing as a created avatar as opposed a famous world leader at launch, and the team has created special customized avatars for "some of our favorite Twitch streamers." Each streamer has its own custom-picked AI persona, and can also be collected via Twitch drops and added as opponents to your game. Furthermore, if you watch enough Humankind on Twitch, you could even gain access to the Lucy OpenDev.

Among Us has fully revealed its new airship-themed map called...The Airship. Revealed at The Game Awards 2020, the map received a new trailer, which showed off not just the new location, but new activities for crewmates to try and complete without being horribly murdered. The new map is a massive new map with multiple floors, contraptions, jobs, and more. Oh also Geoff Keighley's face will be a mask for Among Us. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=among-us-airship-trailer&captions=true"] The map is based on the Toppat Clan Airship, from developer Innersloth's Henry Stickmin series. It caps off an incredible year for Among Us, which launched in 2018 but achieved huge success during the 2020 pandemic, even causing Innersloth to cancel a sequel in favour of adding updates like this. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has streamed the game to huge audiences on several occasions, which we've said bodes well for video games and government.

The newest Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) chapter has been announced, called Gates of Oblivion and will release sometime in 2021. The cinematic trailer shows chanting coming from what appears to be a spell book, with a female wood elf having visions of a dark, ominous, and fire-filled tunnel. The book looks to be releasing the visions she's having through the cover and a sudden view of a large, demon-looking creature appears over her as she prepares to fight. The trailer can be watched below: [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/12/11/the-elder-scrolls-online-gates-of-oblivion-cinematic-trailer"] Bethesda also announced a Global Reveal Event on January 21, 2021 at 5pm PST where further details for Gates of Oblivion will be released, including new worlds, challenges, and systems.

It Takes Two should take 14 or 15 hours to complete, and its creator, Josef Fares, thinks it should win a world record for the number of mechanics included in a game. The co-op only platform adventure from Hazelight got a new trailer and release date at The Game Awards and, in an interview with IGN, Fares went into more detail about how the game balances its magic-tinged story of mending a relationship, and its large number of settings and activities. Fares and Hazelight's last game, A Way Out was notable for changing how players interacted with the game throughout the story, and It Takes Two builds on that idea: "I think it's going to go to the world record with a huge amount of variation we have in the mechanics. And there are reasons to it as well." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/12/11/it-takes-two-gameplay-reveal-trailer"] "We really need to look closer on how the mechanics are connected to the story," Fares continues, "and I really, truly believe that in [other] narrative games, sometimes designers and writers are [making] two different games. We need to drop the idea of the old thing where you learn your mechanic and blah, blah, blah, you get better. That's old design rules. I don't care about them. They could function and work in another game but, in story experiences, you have to have the [game] and the narrative meld together. This is what we're trying to do. Everything the characters are seeing, or interacting with, or encountering is part of the gameplay." Even in the two-minute trailer, we see multiple settings and activities, one after another, and Fares is very clear on the point that this is the feeling throughout the game - and it's been a force of will to make that happen: "The variation of the gameplay is important, both for the story but also to keep the player invested, so you feel that you don't lose interest – you're a part of it. I mean, how many games don't you feel like, 'I've done this so many times. This is enough'? [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=it-takes-two-game-awards-trailer-screenshots&captions=true"] "The designers have gone totally nuts. I push them so hard, like, 'Come on, let's do this. We can do this. Let's do this, let's do that.' And sometimes they tell me, 'Josef, this thing will take us four or five months to make and we only use it for these two minutes.' But for me it's the same argument as saying, 'Oh, we have such a cool scene in this movie. Let's reuse this exact scene over there.' No, it doesn't make sense. It would make it even less special, so we have to start letting go of old ideas on how we look at games." The upshot is that It Takes Two will seemingly be a far meatier experience than most narrative games of its kind. "It's going to be a long one," Fares tells me. "Yeah, like we're talking 14, 15 hours of unique madness [...]  I'm telling you, looking at how much content is crammed into this game is crazy." [poilib element="quoteBox" parameters="excerpt=You%20will%20be%20mindf**ked.%20I%20know%20I'm%20confident%2C%20but%20you%20play%20this%20game%20and%20tell%20me%20not%20to%20be%20confident"] Fares, as you might expect from his past interviews, is pretty enthusiastic about the project, and makes very clear that he and his studio have built something unique: "We've been working really hard with this for three years, and damn, it will be an experience. Let me tell you that. You will be mindf**ked. I know I'm confident, but you play this game and tell me not to be confident. I'm telling you, you have not experienced anything like this." It Takes Two will be released on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC on March 26, 2021. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Joe Skrebels is IGN's Executive Editor of News. Follow him on Twitter.
