According to the CEO of The Lego Group, the company may begin developing some video games internally. Niels Christiansen, who has been Lego's CEO since 2017, said in an interview that the company is ramping up to make some games in-house.

"We can definitely say as long as we're under the Lego brand we can cover experiences for kids of all ages, digital or physical. [Games development in-house] is something we're building up," he said in an interview with FT.

Many of the existing Lego games are made by external studios via a licensing arrangement. For example, Lego works with the UK studio TT Games on the popular Lego games based on brands like Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter, and Pirates of the Caribbean.

Wargaming, the developer behind World of Tanks, confirmed that its new mech shooter Steel Hunters will enter early access on April 2.

Steel Hunters was revealed at The Game Awards 2024. It's quite different from the military-focused multiplayer games Wargaming is best known for, such as World of Tanks, World of Warships, and World of Warplanes. Steel Hunters fully embraces sci-fi as a mecha game that blends elements from hero shooters, battle royales, and extraction shooters. Five teams of two players fight each other to collect a resource called Starfall on Earth, and players can win by killing all of their opponents or successfully extracting.

When Steel Hunters enters early access, it will include seven different "Hunters" for players to choose from: Razerside, Heartbreaker, Fenris, Ursus, Trenchwalker, Prophet, and Weaver. Three maps scattered around Earth--Crimson Ridge, Maryland Heights, and Stonecutter Keeper--will also be part of Steel Hunters from the start of Early Access.

The Last of Us Season 2 releases this April, and the sophomore season will up the ante in terms of how the deadly fungus spreads--and this will include by way of airborne spores.

Neil Druckmann confirmed this during a SXSW panel recently, saying the reason the team decided to do this in Season 2 was for dramatic purposes. "Everything has to be drama. There had to be a dramatic reason of introducing it now. And there is," he said (via IGN).

In The Last of Us game series, the outbreak spreads from spores, but Season 1 changed things up and had the fungus spread via cordycep tendrils. There was a fan backlash against this.

The first season finale of Amazon's Fallout TV series wasn't ambiguous about where the show was going next. Season 2 is heading to New Vegas, the bombed-out remains of Las Vegas that featured in 2010's Fallout: New Vegas. Now, a pair of leaked videos from Season 2 has demonstrated how Fallout will bring New Vegas to life.

Via Kotaku, Tiktok user Onzo1313 shared a few videos from just outside of the Fallout Season 2 set. The first video has a very brief glimpse of the Vegas strip that has a sign for the Lucky 38 casino, which is controlled by Mr. House in Fallout: New Vegas. Another video features the worn-out "Welcome to the Strip" sign that looks very true to the way it appeared in the game.

These aren't the only New Vegas leaks we've seen since Season 2 began filming. Other locations from the game that will appear include the Dinky the T-Rex and the rinky-dink desert hotel it resides on from the outskirts of New Vegas. Pictures of Rita's Cafe and the Atomic Wrangler have also been shared by leakers.

Blizzard has announced that it is collaborating with the K-pop group LE SSERAFIM again, giving players new skins to purchase for a select few characters. The collaboration will run between March 18-31.

There are new FEARLESS Legendary skins for Mercy, D.Va, Illari, Ashe, and Juno, as well as Blue Flame recolor skins for Kiriko, D.Va, Sombra, Tracer, and Brigitte. Players can purchase each skin individually or all 10 of them together in the Ultra Bundle. There will also be challenges for players to take on to earn more rewards, including the Legendary Fawksey James Junkrat skin.

It's unclear how much each skin costs, but individual skins in previous LE SSERAFIM collaborations were 1,900 Overwatch Coins, which comes out to a little less than $20 (the 2,000 coin bundle is $20)
