Nintendo has revealed a new Fortnite Nintendo Switch bundle - with brand new yellow and blue Joy-Con color variants. Nintendo has released Fortnite bundles for the Nintendo Switch before but they've never been as intricate as this new bundle. Whereas previous bundles have included just a standard switch with Fortnite and some V-Bucks, this new special edition console includes a Fortnite-themed dock and Switch, and Fortnite-themed Joy-Con. It also includes 2000 V-Bucks and the Wildcat Bundle, as reported by NintendoLife. You can check out the limited edition console in the slideshow below. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=limited-edition-fortnite-nintendo-switch-bundle&captions=true"] The console has so far only been announced for release in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. There's no word if this console will make its way to the United States or other regions. It will release in Europe on Oct. 30 and in Australia and New Zealand on Nov. 6. As far as pricing goes, it will cost AU$469.95 in Australia. A price for the bundle in New Zealand or Europe has not yet been revealed. As you can see in the slideshow above, it includes the Switch console, dock, and Joy-Con, each Fortnite-themed, as well as a Wildcat bundle code which includes the Wildcat outfit and two other skins, the Sleek Strike backpack and two other back blings, and 2000 V-Bucks. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2018/11/02/fortnite-the-worst-trickshot-in-the-history-of-fortnite"] The left Joy-Con wears a deep yellow while the right Joy-Con features a blue color – both different from current yellow and blue Joy-Con shades – as well as the battle bus hanging down from the home button. For more Fortnite, be sure to read about how the game was downloaded on nearly half of all Nintendo Switch systems worldwide.

Activision has revealed how the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Open Beta will work, following the game's multiplayer reveal. According to an Activision blog post, the open beta will take place across two "weekends," October 8-12 and October 15-19, and each beta will begin at 10 AM on Thursday morning (precise global timings are yet to be revealed.) Weekend 1 starts with the PS4 early access beta, which will run from October 8-9. The PS4 open beta will follow, starting on October 10 and ending on October 12. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/09/09/call-of-duty-black-ops-cold-war-multiplayer-hands-on-preview"] Weekend 2 of the beta includes crossplay and kicks off with the Xbox and PC early access beta, and another PS4 open beta, both of which will run from October 15-16. To round things off we have an "Open All Platforms" beta which everyone can access, which starts on October 17 and ends on October 19. The rest of the blog posts details a series of "Deniable Operations" maps, taking players around the world, from Angola to Uzbekistan, Moscow and Miami. We caught a glimpse of a VIP Escort match that takes place on the Miami map recently after the Multiplayer Alpha was leaked on Twitch. You can read more about what to expect from the Open Beta here, based on what we found in the footage. Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War launches on November 13 for PC, PS4, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S.

The third episode of CD Projekt Red's Night City Wire livestream showcase for Cyberpunk 2077 will take place on Friday, September 18 at 9am PT/12pm ET/6pm CEST and will "take you on a tour around Night City, check up on its gangs, and give you a sneak peek into the creation of #Cyberpunk2077 original score." Cyberpunk 2077's official Twitter announced the news alongside a brief video that gives another glimpse at some of Night City's gangs, including the Animals, Aldecaldos, Maelstrom, The Mox, 6th Street, Tyger Claws, Valentinos, Voodoo Boys, and Wraiths.

Join us on Friday, September 18 at 6PM CEST, at https://t.co/y8iUIM0gBv for the 3rd episode of Night City Wire! We'll take you on a tour around Night City, check up on its gangs, and give you a sneak peek into the creation of #Cyberpunk2077 original score. pic.twitter.com/FoplKXn7Ic

Cyberpunk 2077's last Night City Wire focused on the game's music, weapons, and the three branching paths that players will be tasked with choosing at the start. These three starter paths - Nomad, Street Kid, and Corpo - were featured in our extensive hands-on preview of Cyberpunk 2077. Cyberpunk 2077 will be released on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on November 19, 2020, and will have free DLC alongside paid expansions, just like The Witcher 3. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/06/25/cyberpunk-2077-hands-on-what-we-think-after-4-hours-in-night-city"] While this much-anticipated game has seen delays, CD Projekt Red does not expect any further major ones in the future as Cyberpunk 2077 is now in its "final stretch of development." For those looking to jump into next-gen with the PlayStation 5 and/or Xbox Series X/S, Cyberpunk 2077 will also have a free "more robust" next-gen upgrade in 2021. However, it will also be playable on these new consoles on day one with backward compatibility.

Dame Diana Rigg, who played Lady Olenna Tyrell in Game of Thrones and Tracy Bond in On Her Majesty's Secret Service among many other roles, has died aged 82. As announced by her agent today, Rigg "died peacefully early this morning. She was at home with her family who have asked for privacy at this difficult time." Rigg rose to fame in the UK during the 1960s, playing Emma Peel in spy series The Avengers. She rose to world prominence later that decade, as she played the ill-fated Tracy Bond - the only Bond girl to marry James Bond - in On Her Majesty's Secret Service. In recent years, she became best-known for playing Lady Olenna Tyrell, the 'Queen of Thorns', in the latter seasons of Game of Thrones. Lady Olenna became a fan-favourite, not least because of her barbed one-liners (of which you can see a selection in the gallery below). [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=game-of-thrones-lady-olennas-best-lines&captions=true"] Rigg also played herself in an episode of Ricky Gervais' Extras, Lady Neville in Andy Serkis' directorial debut, Breathe, and Mrs. Winifred Gillyflower in Doctor Who episode, 'The Crimson Horror'. In 1994, Rigg was made a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE) for services to drama in the Queen's Birthday Honours. 'Crimson Horror' and Sherlock writer Mark Gatiss wrote on Twitter that Rigg was "Flinty, fearless, fabulous. There will never be another. RIP". Fellow Game of Thrones actor Tony Way (Ser Dontos Hollard) wrote, "A true icon. I met her a couple of times on Game of Thrones. I played Backgammon with her once. She called me a c**t for beating her. She was fantastic." Bond movie producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli provided a joint statement: "We are very sad to hear of the passing of Dame Diana Rigg, the legendary stage and screen actress who was much beloved by Bond fans for her memorable performance as Tracy di Vicenzo in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, the only woman to have married James Bond. Our love and thoughts are with her family and friends at this sad time."

Amazon Prime Video has finally premiered the much-anticipated Season 2 of The Boys, and it's every bit as diabolical as Season 1. However, some people are confused why Amazon only released the first three episodes of The Boys Season 2's eight episodes: "The Big Ride," "Proper Preparation and Planning," and "Over the Hill with the Swords of a Thousand Men," leading some viewers to wonder whether there are only three episodes in The Boys Season 2 in total. Luckily, there are still plenty more superhero shenanigans to look forward to. Check out our Season 2 premiere review in the video below: [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/08/24/amazons-the-boys-season-2-review"]

When Do Episodes of The Boys Season 2 Come Out?

Amazon Prime Video is releasing new episodes of The Boys Season 2 on a weekly basis every Friday until the Season 2 finale, which will air on October 9. This is different from The Boys' Season 1 release schedule, when every episode dropped at once. IGN recently spoke to showrunner Eric Kripke, who explained why they decided to make the change from Season 1's binge model approach. "I'm aware that people seem to be unhappy that we moved to a staggered rollout," Kripke told IGN. "I get it. I think a lot of people were surprised even though we advertised a lot that we were moving to a weekly format, but clearly we needed to advertise it more and really put a bright neon sign on it. So I think people were disappointed, which was a bummer to see." Kripke went on to say that the decision to release The Boys Season 2 episodes on a weekly basis is "not a cash grab from Amazon. This was a creative choice from the producers. [Fans] may not like it, but they at least have to respect that the people making the show made this choice on their own. And creatively too, we felt that the best way to absorb the show was to have a little bit of time in between [each episode] to discuss a lot of difficult issues and tricky storylines that are in the show before they immediately burn on to the next one."

• Episode 4: Friday, September 12
• Episode 5: Friday, September 19
• Episode 6: Friday, September 26
• Episode 7: Friday, October 2
• Episode 8 (Finale): Friday, October 9

What Time Does The Boys Season 2 Come Out?

It's unclear exactly what time The Boys Season 2 drops a new episode. However, it is likely (at least in Pacific time) that each new adventure will be available to stream at midnight every Friday. For more on The Boys Season 2, learn more about The Seven's newest member in our Stormfront explainer, find out which former X-Men star is playing Lamplighter in Season 2, and read about how Twitch is rolling out Amazon Prime Video watch parties.

The 100’s showrunner, Jason Rothenberg, has released a statement on Twitter in response to fan outrage over the decision to kill a major character in the CW show’s seventh and final season. Warning: spoilers for The 100 follow. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/07/26/the-100-special-video-presentation-qa-official-panel-comic-con-2020"] In the 13th episode of Season 7, aired on September 9, core character Clarke Griffin shoots and kills her best friend, Bellamy Blake, in order to prevent him from giving a vital book to the cult-like Disciples. In the resulting struggle, Clarke is unable to obtain the book before fleeing, meaning presumably Bellamy's death will not prevent the Disciples learning the knowledge in the book, and so his death is all for nothing. Fan reaction to the plot point has been negative, with many upset that the show did not fulfill the popular Clarke/Bellamy ‘ship’ that the fandom has popularised over the show’s seven-season run.

In response, Rothenberg issued the following statement on Twitter: “For 7 seasons, The 100 has been a show about the dark things that humanity will do to survive and the toll those deeds take on our heroes’ souls. We knew Bellamy’s death had to go to the heart of what the show is all about: Survival. Who you’re willing to protect. And who you’re willing to sacrifice. His loss is devastating, but his life and his endless love for his people will loom large and affect everything that comes after, to the very end of the series finale itself.” Bellamy, played by Bob Morley, has been a season regular on the show since it began in 2014. The show adapts Bellamy’s character from the books, originally written by Kass Morgan, but his character has altered over the course of the series as the storylines of the show diverge from those seen in the book series. The finale of the final book, The 100: Rebellion, sees Bellamy ask Clarke to marry him, an outcome seemingly many of the show’s fans would have like to have seen. The 100 season 7 is the final season of the CW's young adult post-apocalypse show. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Matt Purslow is IGN's UK News and Entertainment Writer. 

The Xbox Series X retail box art has been revealed. A listing for the Xbox Series X has been spotted on Canadian consumer electronics website The Source, which features an image of what seems to be the next-gen console's box, alongside press shots of the device. The main image on the box focuses on the vent at the top of the device, and symbols in the corner tout features such as the Series X's 4K 120 FPS capabilities, the Xbox Velocity Architecture system and the console's 1 TB SSD. No official word on the size of the box itself.     We're still waiting on a look at the final retail packaging for the slimmer Xbox Series S. It seems a safe bet that it might focus in more on the white color scheme for its packaging, matching the console itself. We recently learned that Xbox Series X will launch on November 10, 2020, retailing at $499 USD / £449 / $749 AUD. The Xbox Series S was also announced, a less-powerful, all-digital version which outputs at 1440p instead of 4K. The Xbox Series S will retail at $299 USD / £249, with preorders for both consoles kicking off on September 22. If you're not sure which console to pick up, check out our article comparing the specifications between the two consoles to help you make that decision. You can also check out the full Xbox Series X games list here, which runs through all rumored and confirmed titles coming to Microsoft's slate of next-gen consoles. Thanks to all of this week's Xbox details, the long next-gen standoff is finally ending. We're still waiting on Sony to reveal the PS5's price, release date, and other final retail details, but with Xbox going first, Sony surely can't be far behind.

A RoboCop prequel TV series that will detail the rise of Omni Consumer Products and the company’s Vice President, Dick Jones, is in early stages of development. Talking to Movieholen.net, Ed Neumeier, scriptwriter of the original 1987 movie, revealed that he is working at MGM on the series. “It has all the cool stuff about RoboCop except no RoboCop,” he said. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2015/08/02/history-of-awesome-robocop"] “There’s the idea of doing things about business and law enforcement in the city of Detroit a minute-and-a-half in the future,” he explained. “It would be a way to do all sorts of stories about business and tech, Silicon Valley, corporations, snakes in suits, cops, all that. It’s a wonderful rich tapestry.” Neumeier seems to suggest that the show doesn’t have a formal green light yet, stating that MGM still needs to find the right partners and produce a pilot episode. But, should everything go head, the show will follow “ the evolution of Richard Jones to Dick Jones, the story of OCP and how the world moves into the future, how the corporate world behaves.” [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2014/02/04/10-things-you-probably-dont-know-about-robocop"] He also notes that people don’t necessarily start out as bad guys, suggesting Jones may not be quite the scumbag he was in the 1987 movie when played by Ronny Cox. The last time we saw the city of Detroit under the thumb of Omni Consumer Products was in the RoboCop remake back in 2014, which we gave a 6.9 in our review back in the day. Hopefully, should this project come to fruition, it'll fare better than Joel Kinnaman's Alex Murphy. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Matt Purslow is IGN's UK News and Entertainment Writer. 

A number of leaks suggest that a Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake announcement is likely to be revealed during Ubisoft Forward later today. A small clip has leaked from the Russian Uplay store, which appears to show remastered visuals from the game ahead of a potential reveal during Ubisoft's September 10 showcase. Yesterday, fans spotted Prince of Persia motifs and symbols in a piece of promotional art for Ubisoft Forward, and an Amazon UK listing for a 'Prince of Persia Remake' has also been found.

All of this evidence suggests that Ubisoft is raring up to reveal a remake of 2008's Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, most likely during Ubisoft Forward. A video surfaced in May showing test footage of a cancelled Prince of Persia pitch from 2012. For more information, check out our writeup here. If it is indeed real, a Sands of Time remake would likely go down well - back in 2003 we awarded the original a 9.6/10 review, saying it was "a must own -- a soon-to-be-classic worthy of a permanent place in your collection."
