Horizon Zero Dawn Is Coming to PC, Reports Say

According to sources familiar with Sony’s plans, Horizon Zero Dawn will be coming to the PC sometime in the future. Kotaku is reporting that three people familiar with Sony’s plans that the PlayStation 4 exclusive from Guerrilla Games will be coming to the PC. This is not an official announcement, and the sources spoke anonymously because they were not allowed to divulge this information. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=igns-top-25-playstation-4-games&captions=true"] This would be the first Sony exclusive game by a first-party Sony Worldwide Studios to come to the PC. This is not the first Sony exclusive to be coming to PC, however, as Quantic Dreams’ games are on the PC and Death Stranding will be coming to PC later this year. Horizon Zero Dawn was released on the PlayStation 4 in 2017. Guerrilla Games’ original IP is an open-world adventure game set in a post-apocalyptic world where humans live in a technologically-advanced, but primal, world overrun by robotic dinosaurs. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2017/02/20/horizon-zero-dawn-review"] Kotaku is reporting that Horizon Zero Dawn will be on both Steam and the Epic Games Store, though this is not finalized. The PC port is also expected to push the limits of the game beyond what was capable on the PS4. IGN has reached out to Sony, but haven’t heard back in time of publishing this story.

Cyberpunk 2077 Release Date Delayed

Cyberpunk 2077 has been delayed from its April release to September 17, 2020, CD Projekt Red announced. CD Projekt Red published the following notice on its official Twitter account confirming the postponed launch of their upcoming sci-fi role-playing game. "Cyberpunk 2077 won't make the April release window and we're moving the launch date to September 17, 2020," the company wrote. "We are currently at a stage where the game is complete and playable, but there's still work to be done. Night City is massive - full of stories, content, and places to visit, but due to the sheer scale and complexity of it all, we need more time to finish playtesting, fixing and polishing." CD Projekt Red did say that it wants Cyberpunk 2077 to be a "crowning achievement for this generation," meaning the studio still intends to release Cyberpunk 2077 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-2020-video-game-release&captions=true"] Cyberpunk 2077 is a sci-fi first-person RPG based on the popular Cyberpunk tabletop RPG. Players will assume the role of V as they navigate the underground politics of Night City and maneuver between various criminal factions. This is the third major delay for a video game title originally slated for Q1 2020. Square Enix announced earlier this week that Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Crystal Dynamic's Avengers game would both be delayed. But while Final Fantasy 7 Remake was only delayed for a month, Avengers was delayed further back to September.

Here’s What Fans Are Saying About Byleth Joining Smash Bros.

After today's announcement that Byleth from Fire Emblem: Three Houses is coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, reactions are mixed. The Three Houses protagonist is the fifth and final character in Smash Ultimate's first Fighters Pass. Director Masahiro Sakurai also announced that six more characters are on the way in Fighters Pass Volume 2, so regardless of your feelings on Byleth, there are still plenty more characters to look forward to.

Some Fans Are Disappointed With 'Another Fire Emblem Character'

With Byleth's addition, there are now eight Fire Emblem characters on the Smash Ultimate roster. Some believe that's too many representatives from Nintendo's strategy RPG series.

Reactions to the False Dante Predictions

Some fans were convinced that Dante from the Devil May Cry series would be the fifth DLC fighter. Instead, we got a fighter that not very many people saw coming.

Three Houses Fans Are Excited

Fire Emblem: Three Houses was a hit last year, winning the Player's Voice award at The Game Awards. Some Fire Emblem fans are happy to see more success for Three Houses.

Excitement for Cuphead's Mii Fighter Costume

Cuphead is joining Smash Ultimate as a costume for the Mii Gunner, and many players are thrilled to see more indie representation in Smash Bros. Byleth will join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate on January 28. On the same day, you'll be able to pre-purchase Fighters Pass Volume 2, which comes with a Ancient Armor Mii costume from Breath of the Wild.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses Expansion Pass Wave 4 DLC Announced

Nintendo revealed Fire Emblem: Three Houses' Wave 4 DLC contents and release date during its Direct presentation on Thursday.

Those who have purchased Fire Emblem: Three Houses' Expansion Pass will have access to the Wave 4 DLC on February 12, 2020. Watch the newest trailer below.

[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/01/16/fire-emblem-three-houses-dlc-wave-4-trailer"]

The Wave 4 DLC contains the ‘Cindered Shadows’ side story. It takes place in a new location called Abyss, which are the underground tunnels below Garreg Mach, where the monastery’s secret fourth house, the Ashen Wolves, hides.

As the trailer reveals, you’ll be able to fight alongside four students from Ashen Wolves as you progress through the story - they are Yuri, Hapi, Constance, and Balthus. Beat the story and you’ll be able to bring the students into the main story as recruitable units.

Fire Emblem Three Houses Abyss

The Wave 4 DLC will also add new classes, quests, paralogues, and activities to Fire Emblem: Three Houses so you should have plenty to keep you busy.

Nintendo also revealed during its Direct today that the next fighter being added to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate will be Fire Emblem: Three House’s own Byleth.

[widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=fire-emblem-three-houses-most-dateable-characters&captions=true"]

It’s not Devil May Cry’s Dante, as many people hoped it would be, but you can hold out for him being one of the six fighters being added to Smash Bros. before 2022.

Fortnite: Where to Find No Swimming Sign Locations

After it's surprise release, the Fortnite 8-Ball vs. Scratch challenges are live in the game. One of the early challenges will task players with swimming in front of different "No Swimming" signs. Since these can be hard to track down, we are here to help. This week has been a busy one for Fortnite players, between the new Ninja skin and the v11.40 update, the last thing players expected was for Epic to drop two surprise mission sets — but alas, here we are.

Where to Find No Swimming Signs in Fortnite

No Swimming signs are scattered about all over the Fortnite map, but for this challenge, players will only need to visit two of them. Unfortunately, they are a bit spread out, so this challenge could prove to be tough to complete in one match. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=the-most-addictive-online-games&captions=true"] However, as you can see in the map below, there are two No Swimming signs located right next to each other. It's currently unclear if both of these signs will count as individual locations or if they'll be grouped together — but it's worth checking out if you're in that area. Fortnite No Swimming Signs Once you've tracked down the No Swimming signs in Fortnite, simply hop in the water for a quick swim to complete this challenge. If you need more help with the Fortnite 8-Ball vs. Scratch challenges, be sure to check out our Fortnite wiki page and our list of Weekly Challenges.

Metro Redux Officially Coming to Nintendo Switch

Metro Redux, which includes the enhanced versions of Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light, will be available for Nintendo Switch on February 28, 2020.

Metro Redux for Switch will be sold as a boxed edition that includes both games as a single campaign. All the DLC for Metro: Last Light, which adds about another 10 hours of playtime, is also included.

The box will contain a single 16GB cart with no additional download required. If you pre-order the Ranger Cache pack from selected retailers you’ll also get a bunch of additional goodies.

[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2014/09/30/ign-plays-metro-redux-with-deep-silver"]

Included in the Ranger Cache pack is a Metro Redux pin badge set, game case sleeve, double-sided alternate artwork inlay, four double-sided art cards, and an A2 double-sided poster.

If you prefer digital downloads, you’ll have to purchase Metro 2033 Redux and Metro: Last Light Redux separately from the Nintendo eShop.

Metro Redux gives you the choice of playing through the campaign in two different ways. You can opt for the “Survival” play style for a slower, survival horror experience. Or you can choose the “Spartan” play style if you want more of an action-based first-person shooter campaign.

[widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="legacyId=20017405&captions=true"]

Metro Redux previously came to PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in 2014. In our Metro Redux review, we said that "despite their seemingly miserable setting, both Metro games are in fact fun, diverse shooter-adventures."

The double game compilation has you playing as Artyom as he navigates the post-apocalyptic tunnels of the Moscow underground in the year 2033. While it’s dark and full of warring factions down there, it’s better than trying to deal with the poisonous wasteland and its deadly mutants on the surface.

Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light are the first two games in the series. In 2019, a third part called Metro Exodus came out, which we gave an 8.5 in our Metro Exodus review.

Tatooine-Like Planet Discovered By 17 Year-Old NASA Intern

A NASA intern discovered a new planet that’s similar to Tatooine from Star Wars - on his third day of work.

NASA explained that the planet now known as TOI 1338 b is a “circumbinary planet,” which means it orbits two stars. It was discovered by 17 year-old Wolf Cukier on the third day of his summer 2019 internship with NASA.

[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2018/08/16/canceled-star-wars-spinoff-featured-tatooine-ign-news"]

Cukier was tasked with examining variations in star brightness that had been captured by NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) when he saw a signal from the system called TOI 1338.

“At first I thought it was a stellar eclipse, but the timing was wrong. It turned out to be a planet,” Cukier said.

TOI 1338 b is the first circumbinary planet to be found by TESS (circumbinary planets have been discovered previously by NASA’s Kepler and K2 missions). It’s about 1,300 light years away in the constellation called Pictor. The first of the two stars it orbits is 10% bigger than our Sun while the other is cooler, dimmer, and about a third of our Sun’s mass.

Star Wars Tatooine

If you’re a Star Wars fan, you’ll recall that Luke Skywalker’s home planet, Tatooine, orbits two stars, just like TOI 1338 b. “It's very much like Tatooine, at least how the stars would appear in the sky," Cuskier told the BBC. "So, it would also have a double sunset.”

Unfortunately, Cuskier says TOI 1338 b is probably too hot for it to be habitable and probably doesn’t have a solid surface. Your Skywalker dreams will have to be put on hold for now.

[widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=46-movies-that-made-1-billion-at-the-box-office&captions=true"]

Speaking of which, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker has now officially crossed $1 billion at the global box office. Why don’t you celebrate by checking out Colin Trevorrow’s leaked script for Star Wars IX? Be warned that it’s full of spoilers, of course.

Fortnite: Where to Search the Hidden Gnome in the 8-Ball vs. Scratch Challenges

The Fortnite 8-Ball vs. Scratch challenges are live, as Epic dropped them a day earlier than expected. One challenge will task players with searching the hidden gnome between Fancy View, a wooden shack, and a big house. In addition to dropping new challenges, Epic also announced that they would be releasing a Ninja skin in the coming days, and added Sidegrading in the v11.40 update.

Where to Search the Hidden Gnome in the 8-Ball vs. Scratch Challenges

If you're trying to track down the hidden gnome in the 8-Ball vs. Scratch challenges, then you're probably scratching your head trying to figure out where the hidden location between Fancy View, a wooden shack, and a big house is located. Fortnite Hidden Gnome 8 Ball vs. Scratch Unfortunately, it's not immediately obvious where you should be looking for the gnome, but we've tracked down its exact location. As you can see on the map above, you'll find the hidden gnome in Fortnite along the western side of the map. More specifically, you'll find the hidden gnome southwest of Sweaty Sands, close to the edge of the beach. As you get close, you'll find it resting in a patch of yellow flowers. Fortnite Hidden Gnome 8 Ball vs. Scratch Location At first, these types of challenges can seem daunting, but they're actually pretty easy. It's also not the only hidden gnome challenge, as one was released with the Rippley vs. Sludge challenges. Fortnite Chapter 2: Season 1 is currently set to end sometime in February.
