Marvel’s Spider-Man PS4: How To Unlock Spidey’s Avengers Infinity War Suit

(Spoilers ahead for both the game and Avengers: Infinity War.) If you’re still a little raw after the brutal ending of Avengers: Infinity War, then seeing this suit in action in the PS4-exclusive Spider-Man title may either make you very happy (yay this costume is great and I can pretend everything is OK with Peter Parker) or very, very sad (oh god it just reminds me of that last scene with Tony Stark MY FEELINGS). Either way, the Iron Spider suit stands as one of the most visually striking in the game, and it makes swinging through the skyscrapers of New York just that little bit cooler.

Unsurprisingly, this suit’s power mimics the one seen in the movie, and sprouts four mechanical arms from Spidey’s back when activated. Within the game, these arms add extra power to Spidey’s attacks, allowing you to bust through even the strongest enemies’ defenses (including shielded foes and those pesky brutes), as well as hit multiple enemies at once. When you’re surrounded and need a quick way to land some hits regardless of the enemy types around you, this suit’s Iron Arms power is a lifesaver.

The Iron Spider Suit unlocks about two-thirds of the way into the game, and when looking at the suits list, it’s the 17th you’ll have access to. The first thing you’ll need to do to nab the Iron Spider is reach level 31. After that, you’ll need to have four crime tokens accumulated, as well as three base tokens and three challenge ones. Once you have those, then Stark’s hopefully-not-final creation for young Peter Parker is yours for the taking.

Marvel’s Spider-Man PS4: How To Unlock The Homecoming Suit

If you’re not a fan of the white spider logo costume you’ve probably seen Spidey rock in most of the pre-release videos and images of Marvel’s Spider-Man for PS4, then never fear. Not only does the game feature more than 20 alternate suits (check out our full list of suits coming soon), but it also features the webslinger’s popular Tony Stark-created suit featured in recent big screen films like Captain America: Civil War and Spider-Man: Homecoming.

The Stark Suit–as it’s referred to in the game–is actually one of the first ones you’ll have access to. That’s a huge plus, as not only is this suit one of the most aesthetically awesome costumes Spidey’s worn in either the comics or in movies, it also unlocks what is probably one of the most useful powers in the game: Spider-Bro. Initiating Spider-Bro releases a small drone that flies around Spider-Man and zaps enemies with electricity, rendering them temporarily paralyzed and making them easy pickings. The effect lasts for a decent amount of time as well, meaning Spider-Bro can easily become your favorite crowd control move in the entire game.

Unlocking the Stark Suit is pretty straightforward. If you’ve just started the game and are looking at a mainly empty list of boxes in your suits menu, the Stark Suit is actually eighth on the list. You’ll need to be level 10 to get the chance to unlock it, but once you’re there, you’ll also need a few of the tokens you’ve likely already been collecting around New York–specifically, one base token, one research token, and three crime tokens.

And the high tech Stark Suit isn’t the only one from the Homecoming movie featured in the game. If you recall, the Peter Parker in that movie started his crime fighting wearing a simple red hoodie and blue pants, and that simple homemade suit can also eventually be unlocked and worn in this PS4 Spidey title. This suit doesn’t have a specific power that it comes with, and will probably take you a while to achieve, as you’ll need to find every backpack hidden throughout the game.

WildStar Developer Shutting Down, 50 People Losing Jobs – Report

Carbine Studios, the developer of the MMO WildStar and founded by former Blizzard employees, is shutting down. The game is also coming to an end.

Studio owner NCSoft confirmed the closure in a statement to Kotaku. “Today, we are closing Carbine Studios and will begin the process of winding WildStar down to ultimately shutter the game,” the company said.

Refunds will be available for in-game purchases. Additionally, NCSoft said it’s “in the process of identifying the teams that will be doing the work to bring WildStar to a close.”

“These decisions are very difficult to make and we are in the midst of shifting as many of our teammates as possible into other roles within the organisation,” NCSoft said.

According to Kotaku, 50 people are losing their jobs as part of Carbine’s closure. The studio released its first game, WildStar, in 2014; it launched with a subscription model before switching to free-to-play as part of a major update in 2015. The studio was working on and hiring for “a number of exciting new projects,” but it appears that’s all over now.

In 2016, Carbine suffered substantial layoffs due in part to WildStar’s performance in the market. Additionally, the game’s launch in China was canceled. Carbine said PS4 and Xbox One versions of WildStar were possible, but they never happened.

GameSpot has contacted NCSoft in an attempt to get more details about this situation; keep checking back for more.

New Rebel Galaxy Outlaw Trailer Makes Fun Of Star Citizen

Rebel Galaxy, a popular space trading and combat simulation video game, is getting a prequel called Rebel Galaxy Outlaw. This time around, you’ll be leaving the captain’s chair of a capital ship and cozying up in a small gunship.

Outlaw puts you in control of Juno Markev, a rebellious pilot who’s climbing the criminal ladder. You’ll fly your way through a single-player campaign, blasting through enemy threats as you complete missions. According to the game’s FAQ page, there’s over 21 hours of radio music for you to listen to while you’re flying. Between missions, you can gamble or play pool and place bets for new ship parts and upgrades.

A new PSA for Outlaw reveals more details about the game, and finishes up by making fun of Star Citizen‘s pattern of charging its players exuberant fees. This purposively hurtful but playful tone makes up the core of Outlaw’s humor, and can be seen in clips that Rebel Galaxy has tweeted out–like this one where Juno flips off an enemy pilot, spouts a one liner, and shoots them down.

Outlaw won’t feature a multiplayer component and launches on PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PC in early 2019. The PC version of the game will have both HOTAS and mouse/keyboard support, and include features for modding. The game costs $30/€30.

Pokemon Go Legendary Moltres Returning This Saturday For A Limited Time

Pokemon Go players will soon have another chance to capture the Legendary Pokemon Moltres. As a reward for completing the Global Challenge during last week’s Safari Zone event in Yokosuka, Japan, the Legendary bird will return to Raid Battles this Saturday, September 8, but it’ll only be around for a very limited time.

Like Pokemon Go’s Community Day events, the upcoming Moltres Day will only last for three hours, during which time you’ll be able to encounter the Legendary Fire-type Pokemon as a Raid Battle at Gyms. The event will occur around the world, but the hours will vary region by region. You can see exactly when it takes place in your region below.

North America

  • 11 AM – 2 PM PT
  • 2 PM – 5 PM ET

Europe, Middle East, and Africa

  • 10 AM – 1 PM BST
  • 9 AM – 12 PM UTC

Asia-Pacific

  • 12 PM – 3 PM JST

To participate in a Moltres Raid, you’ll first need to have a Raid Pass. During the event hours, you’ll be able to receive up to five free passes by spinning the photo disc at a Gym. This time around, every Moltres you capture will know the Flying-type move Sky Attack. Players will also have a chance to encounter a Shiny version of the Legendary Pokemon.

Like Ho-Oh, which also recently returned to Raid Battles, Moltres is a dual Fire/Flying-type, which makes it particularly vulnerable to Rock-type attacks. The most effective way to defeat it is to use powerful Rock Pokemon like Golem, Tyranitar, and the game’s newest Legendary, Regirock.

Speaking of Regirock, the Legendary Pokemon will only appear in Raid Battles until September 20, so you only have a little more time to add one to your collection if you haven’t already. Shortly after it leaves the game, Niantic will host this month’s Community Day, which takes place on Saturday, September 22 and features the Gen 2 starting Pokemon Chikorita.

Black Ops 4: First Blackout Trailer Shows Off Call Of Duty’s Exciting New Mode

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 will be the first game in the series to introduce a battle royale mode, and now we’re getting a better look at some gameplay on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. In the new trailer above, you can see some of the wild-looking combat as the camera pans the Blackout map, including vehicle, boat, and helicopter combat along with plenty of explosions. Zombies make an appearance as the gameplay area shrinks; these are separate from those in the expanded Zombies mode that Black Ops 4 includes.

“A true celebration of the series, Blackout features fan-favorite characters, weapons, and iconic parts of classic maps, all in the largest map in franchise history complete with land, sea, and air vehicles,” Activision and Treyarch said when announcing the trailer. Players will get their chance to try Blackout themselves very soon, too; a private beta for the battle royale mode will begin on September 14 on Xbox One and PC (PS4 players get in early, on September 10). To get access, PS4 and Xbox One players will have to pre-order the game, but PC players can give Blackout a try even without buying the game.

We’ve been getting new information about Blackout, including its total player count. Treyarch recently told Game Informer that the beta will cap at 80 players per match. That’s less than Fortnite and PUBG’s total player counts, but the developer defended the choice, saying it is putting quality of gameplay ahead of quantity of players. The game’s design director, David Vonderhaar, also said Blackout won’t necessarily always run at 60 FPS (but it won’t be locked at a lower frame rate, either). Check out the Blackout map, below.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 releases on PS4, Xbox One, and PC on October 12. The game also includes a handful of other new and returning modes: including multiplayer and an expanded Zombies experience. It will also feature a new addition to the game, signature weapons, which are cosmetic-only variants of guns that you unlock by completing challenges. Black Ops 4 won’t feature a traditional single-player campaign, though; rather players will go on solo missions that each focus on a different Specialist character.

It’s hard to talk about high-end mechanical keyboards without mentioning Das. Known for their high-quality, understated boards, Das is shaking things up with its new gaming-focused X50Q, which can display all kinds of notifications using its per-key RGB lighting. The company bills the X50Q as the “first cloud-connected keyboard,” but is that just marketing talk or something that’s actually useful?
