A Monster Hunter movie from the director of Resident Evil could never actually be like Monster Hunter the game… unless Capcom made the game like the movie. Which they are. They’ve announced a crossover event between Monster Hunter World: Iceborne and the upcoming movie, where we’ll get to play as Milla Jovovich’s character from the Paul W. S. Anderson flick and earn her armour for keepsies. They’ve even got Milla to voice her character in these new singleplayer quests.

Call of Duty Cold War’s Zombies mode

is, in my opinion, best played with a squad of pals, jumping into Die Maschine and wreaking havoc on the undead constantly emerging from the ground. However, sometimes I’m absolutely sick of having to run around rescuing my pals from screaming freaks, and am extremely not up for going into a game with randomers. For that, here’s how to play solo in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Zombies.

In Cold War’s Zombies mode, you have the opportunity to pick out your own gun if you fancy. I’d recommend doing this early on and upgrading it as you go, since being able to choose your own attachments is a fantastic way to maximise your salvage and loot drops.

You’d think it’d be hard to get anywhere early, weighed down by all that power armour. And yet, despite all odds, the Brotherhood Of Steel has marched into Fallout 76 a little earlier than planned. After accidentally gifting Xbox players the gift of technophilic paladins, Bethesda have chosen to just give the update to everyone rather than roll back the update and have folks wait another week. Nice!

Yee-haw, pilots. Lasso the young’uns to their seats, because Microsoft Flight Simulator‘s next stop is the grand old US of A. The massive aviation sandbox just pushed its second world update, granting a number of states with improved resolutions, laying down some hand-crafted airports and 50 spruced-up points-of-interest to make your stateside tours an absolute treat.

Like any good strategy game, A Total War Saga: Troy is a battle of wits between two seasoned commanders. But ’til now, Creative Assembly’s Homeric army-smasher has only let you face the cold, calculating mind of its AI strategists. That changes with the commencement of Troy’s multiplayer beta this Thursday, finally letting you bash heads with friends for control of the ancient Greek archipelago – or join them in battle across a co-operative campaign.
