The developer announced this delay via the official Dying Light Twitter account today, letting players know the DLC is planned to release August 13 on PC and August 14 on consoles. This is not a huge departure, and shouldn’t keep fans who have been waiting since the Hellraid expansion was announced in April anticipating the release for too much longer.

Dying Light 2’s gameplay trailers have highlighted everything from the game’s new choice and consequence mechanic to Aiden Caldwell’s wrist accessory, the biomarker. But what has been of particular interest to Dying Light fans is the recent monsters trailer. A number of horrific new infected types were shown off in this trailer, including a room full of zombies in an apparent hibernation.

The Wii U controller was the main focus at Nintendo’s press conference, and it showed off some very cool uses for the device which offer a lot potential for the next generation console. Luckily, Game Rant scored some hands-on time with the new controller, along with a wide variety of tech demos. One of the main concerns that people have about the new controller is that it looks incredibly bulky....
While Koei Tecmo is a major company in its own right, its new collaboration with Electronic Arts means it can get better funding and support from a global, AAA publisher. EA Originals has previously led to the production and publishing of games such as Unravel and It Takes Two, which means that this collaboration has some big shoes to fill, considering the label’s previous success stories. The project is set to be officially revealed later this month....
Right now it is unclear as to whether this new Dead Space game will be Dead Space 3 or some other variation of the popular franchise. EA had mentioned previously that they want to “expand” the Dead Space series with FPS or an aerial combat spin-off. It would come as no surprise if the new Dead Space game mentioned by EA was in fact Dead Space 3 and not a spin-off....
Over the last few decades EA has become almost synonymous with sports video games. In fact, the company’s sports wing, EA Sports, was responsible for a huge chunk of EA’s third quarter earnings last year. With this in mind, it’s no surprise the company is looking to continue improving its sports games’ framework and find new ways to better adapt the games for mobile devices.

In reply, several followers used the chance to give the gaming company a good, light-hearted roast. This ranged from random users who couldn’t pass it up to major game developers like God of War director Cory Barlog and ex-BioWare dev Aaryn Flynn responding in kind. Barlog took the chance to praise games and state they are the reason to get up in the morning, whereas Flynn made a tongue-in-cheek remark concerning the Oxford Comma....
However, as it turns out, EA is not ready to pull the plug on Dead Space just yet, or at least that’s the message they’re putting out right now. Moreover, the publisher is “proud of the game” and they believe the “franchise remains an important IP to EA.” Of course that’s a line we’ve heard before, mere days before a future project is cancelled or falls into development hell. After all, EA does not want to project a lack of faith in a product that still has some DLC content in the pipeline....
In order to entice fans and investors alike during an earnings call, though, the EA executive went on to say that the second Star Wars Battlefront would contain “bigger and better worlds.” Not only did Jorgensen boast that the upcoming sequel to Star Wars Battlefront would be more lavish than 2015’s version, but also he proclaimed the game would have content from “the new movies.” Nevertheless, the Electronic Arts CFO failed to mention which films in particular would be comprised in the forthcoming release, but if we had to guess, The Force Awakens is a heavy candidate, especially considering the fact that the Battlefront reboot contained DLC featuring The Battle of Jakku....
However, earlier this week, FIFA 21 and EA Sports (the division of EA that develops and publishes the company’s sports titles) came under fire from actual footballer and AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimović, who said that the game is using his name and face without his permission.

Goalkeeper David De Gea (95) The Manchester United shot-stopper has enjoyed another stellar season in goal for the Red Devils and finds himself on the Premier League Team of the Season for the third year running. The Spaniard’s talents are again attracting attention from Spain and if his overall rating in the TOTS card is anything to go by, Real Madrid will be making a long term investment which will pay high dividends if they manage to keep Manchester United’s fax machines working this time....
While UFC 2 may have found itself the topic of discussion after gaming fans found themselves debating whether the dreaded “EA Sports Curse” had caused popular fighters and UFC 2 cover stars Ronda Rousey and Conor McGregor to lose fights, developer EA Sports and UFC president Dana White were quick to remind fans that anything can happen in the high octane world of MMA. Turns out, “anything can happen” also includes having one of the sport’s most popular announcers step into the octagon to trade blows with MMA’s best....
When speaking out on the subject, Wilson discussed the old method of launching live service games. However, he prefaced the discussion by calling this an “industry-wide challenge” involving a transition from players consuming “40 and 80 hours” worth of offline content “plus 100 or 200, 300 hours of elder game that happens with millions of other players at scale, online.” Due to this, Wilson indicated that EA will be adjusting its approach to future development of live service games following the launch of Anthem....

The retired NBA star responded by saying he and Union are “proud parents of a child in the LGBTQ+ community....
Less than 10 minutes after he came on in the second half, Dybala seized upon a deflected cross from Blaise Matuidi and pounded a shot into the far corner for his second goal in two Serie A matches. Juventus had faced nine shots in the first half, matching its worst mark this season in all competitions, and Cristiano Ronaldo had another quiet performance just like in the 2-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid on Wednesday....
The Argentine pulled up after taking a long-range shot shortly after the half hour mark of the match at San Siro and was replaced by Juan Cuadrado.

But what do we do in the meantime? We understand that delays can be necessary for big games, but this delay definitely left a zombie-shaped hole in the hearts of many survival horror fans. Luckily, there are quite a few other good, scary games out there that we can play or re-play during the delay until this game is finally released. Some of them have zombies, some of them have other kinds of infections, and some of them are just plain creepy....
