Spoilers for this week's episode of Fallout to follow.

Ring a ding ding! Another week, another episode of Fallout. Last week’s episode was notable because it showed our heroes Lucy (Ella Purnell) and Cooper (Walton Goggins) finally arrive at the iconic strip from Fallout: New Vegas. Though the pair had hoped to find Lucy’s father, Hank (Kyle Maclachlan), they were instead greeted by a horrific sight: a Deathclaw, one of Fallout’s most iconic enemies. Elsewhere, Norm (Moisés Arias) and the Vault-Tec junior executives from Vault 31 are exploring the Los Angeles wasteland in hopes of finding Vault-Tec’s headquarters. With plenty of tense situations and big set-ups hanging in the air, let’s dive into this week’s adventure in the Mojave wasteland.

The episode opens with Lucy and Cooper encountering the Deathclaw on the strip. Horrified at the sight of the creature, they quickly realize there is not one but three Deathclaws, making them fully surrounded. Knowing the danger they’re in, Cooper suggests running and staying out of sight. While hidden, Lucy asks Cooper which weapon he suggests they use to take them on. Knowing none of them will work, he takes a sack of grenades and throws it out as a distraction by shooting it. With the Deathclaws occupied, Cooper and Lucy escape to the backside of The Strip into the neighborhood of Freeside.

What is Hytale?

Hytale is an adventure game that "blends the freedom of a sandbox with the momentum of an RPG." The game is set in a procedurally generated world that has dungeons to explore and creatures to interact with. The game has Minecraft-like stylized graphics.

The game launched on January 13 in early access with "core" systems, including exploration, combat, building, minigames, and community-run servers. The game will expand over time with more features.

Rockstar Games has removed a fan-made mission simulating the assassination of Charlie Kirk from its popular online crime sim Grand Theft Auto Online, with the publisher even banning the conservative activist's name to prevent similar missions from appearing.

As reported by IGN, developer Rockstar North introduced a new feature in the A Safehouse in the Hills update on December 10, allowing GTA Online players to create and share unofficial missions within the game. Not long after the tool was released, however, users began populating the mission directory with recreations of Charlie Kirk's assassination, with one titled "We are Charlie Kirk" being perhaps the most prominent of them.

Now, according to a January 13 Variety report, Rockstar Games has removed this and added Kirk's name to its repository of banned words. Sources told Variety that the "profanity filter" the company refers to internally will be renamed to underscore that the tool isn't used only to flag obscenities but also various harmful content, too.

The launch of Hytale in early access yesterday saw over 400,000 people watching the game on Twitch. There is also speculation that the Minecraft-inspired sandbox game has reached almost 3 million sales, though there's confusion around that number currently.

PC Gamer reported on the Hytale's popularity on Twitch, citing 420,000 viewers on January 13. At the time of publication, Hytale has around 112,000 viewers on Twitch, putting it only behind games like League of Legends and Grand Theft Auto V. In addition, a massive rumored concurrent-players for Hytale has been making the rounds, though the figure--2.8 million--seems too good to be true. It all stems from a stream posted by Hytale News on YouTube. GameSpot has reached out to developer Hypixel Studios about the statistic.

Keep in mind PUBG holds the Steam record for most concurrent players with over 3.2 million people in January 2018. So, it's seemingly hard to believe Hytale is close to that achievement within 24 hours of release, especially considering you need to download the game from the Hytale website.

Cygames, the developer and publisher behind the popular series of Granblue Fantasy video games, just opened an AI-focused studio. In response to the backlash toward this announcement, Cygames put out a message trying to assuage players' fears about generative AI's use in its games. The message isn't very reassuring, though.

This kerfuffle started on January 9, when a post on Cygames' Japanese website revealed that Cygames AI Studio had been established. The announcement explains that this new studio will research and develop its own models and provide services to others while drawing on Cygames' game development history and expertise.

The use of artificial intelligence, specifically generative AI, has become a very hot-button issue in the video game industry as of late. Games like Arc Raiders and Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 have faced backlash over their use of the technology, and each new AI-related gaming announcement online usually draws the ire of fans.

Actor Ron Perlman is known in Fallout fandom for delivering the now-iconic voice line, "War. War never changes." Perlman will forever be associated with this line and Fallout in general, and now the actor has revealed how he was compensated for the original Fallout game.

"They invited me to do the very first Fallout and gave me $40 and a sandwich," he said in a recent appearance on The Joe Vulpis Podcast, as reported by Dexerto.

The original Fallout game, which was made by Interplay, was released in 1997. It wasn't until some time later that Perlman became aware of the phenomenon that became Fallout.

The big 3.0 update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons has gone live earlier than expected, bringing with it several major upgrades to the popular--and cozy--game ahead of its Switch 2 release on January 15. If you own it and haven't visited your island getaway in quite some time, you'll be prompted on the Switch screen to update your game. Alternatively, pressing the "+" button on the game's tile and selecting "Software Update" will start the process.

Official patch notes have not yet been released, but Nintendo previously outlined what players can expect from the 3.0 update. Villagers can now catch some Zs on Slumber Islands; there's the new Resort Hotel building you can visit, and Tom Bell is also present with a scheme to make some extra Bells.

Home storage capacity has been significantly increased, new Nintendo items can be purchased, and Resetti's Reset Service lets you clear out flowers, furniture, and more in bulk from your island. On top of all that, there'll also be collaborations with Splatoon, The Legend of Zelda, and Lego.

Arc Raiders is getting a very short update in the middle of January, but it's one that was needed to nerf the power of two weapons: the Trigger 'Nade and Kettle. Embark Studios acknowledged the issues with both when laying out the details for Arc Raiders' 1.11.0 update.

According to Embark, the Kettle's maximum fire rate of 600 was "only realistically reachable by players using macros." In other words, it played right into the hands of cheaters who were using outside software for an unfair advantage in the game. After the update, the Kettle can only reach a maximum fire rate of 450.

Similarly, Embark noted that the Trigger 'Nade was dominating PvP battles and players used it more than any other grenade in the game. The nerf for this weapon is limiting the radius of damage to the center of the explosion and increasing the time it takes to detonate to 1.5 seconds to give opposing players a chance to react when it's deployed. This was also meant to make it harder for players to use it as a "trigger-in-air" grenade.

Rockstar's battle with the The Independent Workers' Union of Great Britain went to court last week, in an effort to determine whether more than 30 employees accused of "gross misconduct" were in fact unfairly dismissed. While Rockstar accused the fired developers of sharing important confidential information, it seems that at least some of that information has now been made public via the court case--including some very early details on what may be GTA 6 Online.

People Make Games has been reporting on the faceoff between Rockstar Games and the IWGB since the start, and recently released a video covering the court proceedings so far. As part of the preliminary hearing, Rockstar's legal representative mentioned a "top-secret element of GTA 6," which he said was so confidential he didn't feel confident speaking about it out loud, instead asking the judge to read it in private.

Despite the supposedly top secret nature of this evidence, People Make Games was able to make an appointment to view the documents, as Rockstar had not applied for reporting restrictions to be placed upon the evidence. He has now reproduced those messages in full, showing an apparent conversation by a fired employee who was frustrated at not being able to book time off after Rockstar started cracking down on the number of employees being granted leave at one time.
