The cloaked monstrocity, Xûr, is now live in Destiny 2 for the weekend until next week's reset. If you're looking to get your some shiny new Exotic armor or weapons for your Guardian, look no further.

Each week, Xûr has a random assortment of Exotic armor, one for each Guardian class, as well as a random Exotic Weapon and an Exotic Engram available for purchase. In addition to his Exotic wares, he's got a random collection of Legendary weapons and armor to deck out your Guardians.

We've rounded up all the info on Xûr for the week including where to find Xûr, which Exotic weapons and armor are available, as well as which Legendary weapons you should pick up, either for PvE or PvP.

Where Is Xûr This Weekend?

When you arrive, make for the red moss-covered tree straight ahead. Climb up the roots and you'll find Xûr waiting at the top to sell you exotic items and legendary weapons.

The talk of the town this week is the absolutely insane Eternal Warrior helmet roll for Titans, which features a staggering 69 overall stat points. Even if the distribution isn't amazing for a Titan at this point, it's worth pickip up just in case the meta changes in the future where Mobility is valuable for a Titan.

Exotic Weapons

Hawkmoon - Exotic Hand Cannon

  • Paracausal Shot
  • Fluted Barrel
  • Alloy Magazine
  • Hip-Fire Grip
  • Textured Grip

Dead Man's Tale - Exotic Scout Rifle

  • Cranial Spike
  • Hammer-Forged Rifling
  • Flared Magwell
  • Vorpal Weapon
  • Short-Action Stock

The roll for Dead Man's Tale this week is pretty decent (Vorpal Weapon is always welcome on this scout), but we've certainly seen better from Hawkmoon.

Legendary Weapons

The Last Dance - Sidearm

  • Shortspec SAS/Quickdot SAS/Control SAS
  • Appended Mag/Light Mag
  • Outlaw
  • Rangefinder
  • Stability Masterwork

Honor's Edge - Sword

Sorrow's Verse - Auto Rifle

  • Appended Mag/Extended Mag
  • Surplus
  • Harmony
  • One Quiet Moment/Suros Energy
  • Reload Speed Masterwork

My top choices this week are both of the sidearms being sold: The Keening and The Last Dance, both of which have pretty solid PvP and PvE use cases. I'd also recommend considering First In, Last Out due to the incoming changes with Arc 3.0 that may make that Slideshot perk very interesting indeed.

Diablo 4 Will Ditch Lootboxes for Battle Passes, Like Overwatch Before It

Blizzard has made clear that Diablo IV will not include lootboxes and, like Overwatch before it, will instead offer Battle Passes and cosmetics through an in-game store.

Announced during its latest development update, Blizzard confirmed Diablo IV will be a full-price game and, while players can spend money if they want to, "you will not be able to pay for power".

Post-launch content will instead be structured around Seasons that will rotate every three months, with each new season feeling like a fresh start for players. The Season Journey model from Diablo III will return, a free progression system that lets players earn rewards by completing challenges, and Blizzard will also offer a more traditional seasonal battle pass too.

Branded as the Season Pass (despite Blizzard calling it "battle pass-style progression), this progression system will let players earn cosmetics and premium currency, with "free tiers and premium tiers" available. Blizzard hasn't shared prices of its Season Pass or how many tiers will be available to purchase.

The in-game shop will offer a variety of different customisation items but "the best looking cosmetics aren't exclusive to the shop," the update said. Diablo IV's fanciest armor will be item drops that players can earn through playing the game instead of just buying. Again, Blizzard made clear that "nothing offered in the shop grants a direct or indirect gameplay advantage".

It's likely hitting this message following the controversy around Diablo: Immortal, its free-to-play mobile game that only offers its best loot to players who spend lots and lots of money. Blizzard has gone the opposite direction with Diablo IV, however, as it did with Overwatch, recently announcing that it too will scrap lootboxes in favor of a battle pass and store.

Koshchei in Hell: Mike Mignola Returns to the Hellboy Universe

The main Hellboy/BPRD saga may be over, but creator Mike Mignola has yet to fully close the door on this iconic horror universe. IGN can exclusively reveal the latest addition to the Hellboy mythos, Koschchei in Hell.

As the title suggests, this four-issue limited series centers around Hellboy's old nemesis. This series is a follow-up of sorts to 2018's Koshchei the Deathless and reunites Mignola with artist Ben Stenbeck and colorist Dave Stewart.

Koshchei originally made his debut in Hellboy: Darkness Calls, where he was depicted as an immortal servant of Baba Yaga sent to kill Hellboy. Koshchei's true motivation, however, is to find his displaced soul and finally end his unnaturally long life. When we last saw him in Koshchei the Deathless, he and Hellboy shared a drink in Hell before Koshchei resumed that quest.

Koshchei in Hell opens with the character trying to enjoy a quiet retirement in the underworld. But as is so often the case with retired killers, a familiar face will coax him back into action as a terrible enemy threatens Hell itself.

“It’s always a pleasure working with Ben as he can really do everything,” said Mignola in Dark Horse's press release. “And there’s just something about how he does things—something very natural and almost quiet—subtle—til it’s time to NOT be subtle. Just really works with the kind of stories I’m trying to tell. And Koshchei—I just love this guy. I’ve really put him through the wringer but he keeps on going. And Hell—well is it odd to say I love that place?”

“Koshchei would love to just sit back and read books and drink wine in his socks,” said Stenbeck. “That’s the series Koshchei wants this to be. But that's not what he's getting. He has to leave the house. Then he's going to run into a lot of familiar faces and meet some new ones and they are pretty much all asking for a fight. Poor old Koshchei, it's never easy.”

Koshchei in Hell #1 will debut in comic shops and digital storefronts on November 30, 2022.

November also marks the debut of Brian Michael Bendis' latest comic at Dark Horse, a kooky superhero comedy called The Ones.

Bethesda Seemed to Tease Starfield at Gamescom… But It Looks to Be a Mistake

Bethesda had fans excited for a Starfield announcement at Gamescom next week... but may have made a mistake, as it subtly removed a mention of the game on its website.

As reported by Eurogamer, a Bethesda blog post outlining the company's plans for Gamescom told fans that both upcoming games would have gameplay on show. "Come see Redfall and Starfield gameplay and get your hands on Fallout 76 while you're there," the post said. "We also have a few surprises and goodies in store for you."

However, after fans started pointing out the mention, this portion of the blog post has been removed entirely. It may be that Xbox will simply be screening the existing gameplay revealed earlier this summer - or it may be a total mistake.

All that remains of Starfield at Gamescom is mention of a photo opportunity with a life-size robot companion from the game called VASCO. Starfield is also missing from Xbox's official Gamescom plans despite the publisher saying it would offer "updates on some announced games" instead of revealing brand new titles at the event.

We got a ton of Starfield news back in June, including the length of its main quest, how its space combat works, and the ridiculous number of planets available to explore in the game.

Even if it doesn't make a Gamescom appearance, IGN will be there covering everything worth seeing at the show, from its Opening Night Live on August 23 to the cosplay competition on August 28.

Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie Reportedly Cast in Ocean’s Eleven Prequel

Barbie co-stars Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie are reportedly reteaming again to star in the Ocean's Eleven prequel over at Warner Bros.

According to a new report from Puck News, Gosling is in talks to star alongside Robbie in the proposed Ocean's prequel. This news comes shortly after the pair wrapped production on Greta Gerwig's live-action Barbie movie, in which Gosling plays Ken and Robbie plays Barbie, as Warner Bros. gears up to greenlight and schedule some more big theatrical tentpoles for their upcoming movie release slate.

If greenlit, the prequel will apparently have a "much bigger budget" than any of the other Ocean's movies that have come before it, including Ocean's 8, which was made on a production budget of $70 million. "The new one will feel more theatrical and maybe even summer-worthy, while not costing anywhere near the $200 million Netflix burned on Gosling's The Gray Man," the report adds.

The studio is keeping its cards close to its chest in regards to plot details, but The Hollywood Reporter previously noted that it will be an original addition to the film series, with events taking place "in Europe in the 1960s." The goal is to begin production in spring 2023, with Jay Roach in the director's chair, and Robbie producing alongside Tom Ackerley, her production partner at LuckyChap.

The 2001 Ocean's Eleven is a remake of the original movie from the 1960s. The film featured a star-studded ensemble cast with George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Don Cheadle, Andy García, Bernie Mac, and Julia Roberts. It spawned two more ensemble entries in 2004 and 2007. Over a decade later, the series returned with a Sandra Bullock-led, all-female spinoff called Ocean's 8.

Before seeing Gosling and Robbie in a potential Ocean's prequel, they'll be bringing to life the iconic dolls in Gerwig's upcoming Barbie movie, which is scheduled to be released on July 21, 2023. Major plot details have yet to be revealed about the film, but numerous photos have circulated showcasing Gosling and Robbie as Barbie in retro, throwback outfits inspired by Barbies from years past.

The World’s Second Biggest Theater Chain Is Filing for Bankruptcy

Regal Cinemas owner Cineworld is preparing to file for bankruptcy within the next few weeks, after the post-pandemic return to cinemas didn't prove as profitable as expected.

As reported by The Wall Street Journal, the London-based Cineworld is expected to file for bankruptcy in both the UK and US having amassed $4.8 billion in debt. It operates more than 9,000 screens in 751 locations around the world, including Picturehouse and Cineworld cinemas in the UK and Ireland, Cinema City in Europe, Yes Planet in Israel, and Regal Cinemas in the U.S. It is the second largest theater chain in the world, following AMC, which has weathered post-pandemic issues partly because of becoming a meme stock.

The company was allegedly relying on blockbuster films including The Batman, Top Gun: Maverick and Thor: Love and Thunder to bolster cinema admission sales but the current numbers are lower than anticipated. Cineworld also commented that there simply aren't enough films scheduled to be released in the coming months, meaning a positive turn in profits isn't expected until the end of 2022.

"Despite a gradual recovery of demand since reopening in April 2021, recent admission levels have been below expectations," Cineworld said in a statement earlier this week.

"These lower levels of admissions are due to a limited film slate that is anticipated to continue until November 2022 and are expected to negatively impact trading and the group’s liquidity position in the near term."

The company, officially Cineworld Group Plc, is currently speaking with lawyers from Kirkland and Ellis LLP and consultants from AlixPartners to assist with its filing for bankruptcy. It also filed for bankruptcy during the height of COVID-19 in 2020 but was saved thanks to a lifeline from creditors.

IGN can exclusively reveal that the game will receive a free Anniversary Update on September 27, which includes New Game+, Charmstones, Spirit Guide Trials, Kena Outfits, accessibility features. On the same day, the game will get a Steam release, having previously been an Epic Games Store PC exclusive.

  • "New game mode called the Spirit Guide Trials, challenging players’ skills with a variety of replayable challenges across three different categories; Obstacle Courses, Wave Defenses, and Boss Reflects."

Kena: Bridge of Spirits was the debut game for Ember Lab, a studio made up of movie animation experts who had made the famous Majora's Mask - Terrible Fate fan film. We awarded the game an 8/10 in our review, calling it "an open-world action-adventure that harkens back to the days of the N64/Gamecube-era Zeldas, Okami, and Star Fox Adventures, while also adding some modern sensibilities and a distinct personal touch."

The mini console was first announced for Japan as the Mega Drive Mini 2 before SEGA confirmed a Genesis Mini 2 North American edition in July. Sadly, the new version will be a more limited run, and the only way to secure a North American version will be to import from Amazon Japan.

The original SEGA Mega Drive Mini was launched in 2019 with 42 games amid a craze of retro consoles being released, such as "Classic" editions of Nintendo's NES and the original PlayStation. In our 9/10 review, IGN said: "The SEGA Genesis Mini isn't perfect, but it's as close to perfect as any retro all-in-one mini console has come so far."
