Fortnite Season 7 Downtime and Patch Information Detailed
Season 7 of Fortnite is set to launch tomorrow and Epic has detailed the release date and time for the start of downtime.
Season 6 will conclude at 1am PT on December 6 and downtime for the 7.00 patch will begin immediately after. Patch notes detailing any new weapons, map changes, or gameplay alterations will be released by Epic as soon as downtime begins.
In past seasons, downtime between updates lasted about an hour, but updates between seasons are typically longer.
Any replays saved before the update will be rendered useless after downtime concludes. Unlockable styles for outfits from the Season 6 Battle Pass can still be unlocked in Season 7 as long as the base skins were unlocked prior to the new season.

Men in Black 4 Gets an Official Title
Sony announced Wednesday that Men in Black 4's official title will be Men in Black: International. The reboot stars Thor: Ragnarok's Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson.
The reveal came in a teaser image posted to the Men in Black official Facebook page, with few details released.
The movie was previously known to be in development from early 2018, as reports circulated that Fate of the Furious director, F. Gary Gray, would be directing the reboot.
American Gods Season 2 Premiere Date Announced
The second season of American Gods, the Starz show based off Neil Gaiman’s award winning novel, officially has a premiere date and a new poster.
Announced by Starz, the eight-episode second season will premiere on Sunday, March 10, 2019 at 8pm ET/PT. Starz also announced that all eight episodes of the first season will air back-to-back on December 29, starting at 12pm PT/3pm ET.
The one-hour drama follows a war brewing between Old Gods and New Gods, as traditional gods lose believers to gods reflecting society’s modern love of money, technology, media, celebrity and drugs.
Celebrity Deathmatch Getting Revival Series from MTV Studios
The MTV cult classic claymation comedy Celebrity Deathmatch is being revived by MTV and Ice Cube.
Announced by MTV Studios, this reimagining of the show is being executive produced by Ice Cube and his production company Cube Vision, along with series creator Eric Fogel. Ice Cube will also lend voice talent in a lead role, and more voice talent will be announced soon.
The show originally ran from 1998-2002, and again from 2006-2007, skewering celebrities, politicians, pop-icons and more. A weekly series, this revival will air exclusively for a currently undecided subscription video-on-demand service, or a premium broadcast partner sometime in 2019. This reportedly marks the first step in “reinventing” the franchise across games, consumer products and more.

Soulja Boy Is Selling Some Kind of Game Consoles, But People Are Suspicious
28-year-old rapper DeAndre Cortez Way, aka Soulja Boy, has begun selling SouljaGame branded consoles and handhelds, though it turns out, they’re really just off-brand emulators that can be found elsewhere.
Soulja Boy, best known for his 2007 #1 hit Crank That (Soulja Boy), tweeted about the console and handheld early this morning, bringing followers to his personal storefront, SouljaWatch, which also sells bluetooth headphones, smartwatches and more. However, fans immediately noted that these are not original systems, and can be found elsewhere for much cheaper than what Soulja Boy is offering.
Troy Otto and Daniel Salazar Returning to Fear the Walking Dead
They may have been absent from Season 4 of Fear the Walking Dead, but Daniel Sharman and Ruben Blades are returning for the show's fifth season.
ComicBook.com first reported yesterday that Sharman will return to Fear the Walking Dead. The report comes as a surprise to fans who thought Sharman's character, Troy Otto, was likely killed when Madison Clark (Kim Dickens) hit him over the head with a hammer in Season 3.
Dickens' character left the show after Season 4, so she won't be around for Troy to take revenge against. That might not even be possible were she still on the show, however, as it's entirely possible Troy will only appear in flashback sequences. It's not known how many Season 5 episodes the character will appear in.
New Far Cry Game Teased
Ubisoft has teased what seems to be a new Far Cry game, possibly set after the events of Far Cry 5.
A teaser video (below) shows a nuclear blast going off behind what looks very much like a landscape from Far Cry 5's Hope County setting, before a buzzsaw blade is repurposed for a crossbow-like a weapon.
Aside from what seems to be a lusher post-apocalyptic setting than we're used to (well, apart from Rage 2, that is), the only other bit of information available now is that the game's listed for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.
It's not totally clear if this is a spin-off, sequel, or otherwise, but Ubisoft has made clear that this is a new game entirely, rather than DLC.
Mob Psycho 100’s Season 2 Premiere Is Coming to Theaters
Crunchyroll and Fathom Events are teaming up for another year of bringing anime to theaters in 2019, and they're starting the year with a screening of Mob Psycho 100's second season premiere on January 5 in select U.S. theaters.
The premiere of Mob Psycho 100 II's first episode will be shown with "a special greeting" from Mob's voice actor Setsuo Ito and the Mob Psycho 100 OVA, which retells the events of the first season from Reigen's perspective. The hour-long OVA is currently streaming on Crunchyroll along with the first season.
