Genesis Aladdin’s ‘Final Cut’ Mode Explained
When Disney Classic Games: Aladdin and The Lion King was announced, the list of games included something called "Disney’s Aladdin Final Cut." We knew the Final Cut was a reworking of the classic SEGA Genesis game, but until now, we didn't know the extent of the changes. IGN scored the first footage (above) along with an exclusive interview (below) that answers some of our questions about just what Final Cut is.
In short, Disney's Aladdin Final Cut includes new areas, boss patterns, graphical effects (check out the cool sword strike flashes in the video every time you clash with an enemy), and other changes that were made after consulting the original 1990s development team.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order – The Final Preview
I’ll spare you the history lesson, but Star Wars fans looking for a lengthy single-player Star Wars game, or really even a finished, released, and not canceled single-player Star Wars game haven't exactly had the most satisfying decade. I’m not reminding you of that to depress you, though. I’m reminding you of that because after playing three hours of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, I can confidently state that there is finally some real, tangible hope that a full-fledged single-player Star Wars game is here. One that has no multiplayer or microtransactions or loot crates or season passes. Really. Seriously. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is a real, actual single-player Star Wars video game that I have actually played extensively and it’s actually coming out soon. A new hope indeed. So, how does it play?

Fortnite’s New Map Leaked Weeks Ago But Everyone Thought It Was Fake
When Fortnite imploded and then rebirthed from the ashes this week with a new map, the world went crazy. But it turns out that same map leaked in September - and no one cared.
The fresh island introduced in Fortnite Chapter 2 was posted to the r/fortnitecompetitive Reddit by someone claiming to be friends with an Epic employee. According to Eurogamer, the post has since been deleted but contained location names, a Battle Bus route, and a clear picture of the map's layout.
Unfortunately the internet believed it to be a hoax, and the post was downvoted into obscurity. Suspicious Redditors branded it "fake news" - why would Fortnite nuke the iconic map it had used for ten seasons? The "leaked" map could easily have been yet another drawing from an overactive fan's imagination.
