Microsoft has announced that starting from the beginning of August, “to cope with global market competition”, the price of the Xbox Series X will undergo an increase.

XBOX SERIES X: INCREASING THE LIST PRICE

Prices will largely match the increase Sony announced for the PS5 last year. In Italy, the console will retail for €549.99. There will be no changes to the prices of the Xbox Series S

GAME PASS PRICES ALSO INCREASE

Furthermore, starting from July 6, the new rates for new players who subscribe to Game Pass Ultimate and Game Pass for Console will also come into force.

Current Game Pass Ultimate and Console members will receive an email from Xbox with details about their membership before their next renewal.

These are the new prices:

• Xbox Game Pass Ultimate: €14,99
• Xbox Game Pass Console: €10,99
• PC Game Pass €9,99

Most markets will be impacted by Xbox Game Pass price increases, with the exception of some Game Pass console prices which will remain the same in Norway, Chile, Denmark, Switzerland, and Saudi Arabia.

Just a year later and this time, ready for Halloween, Pumpkin Jack returns to the attack with a version adapted for Xbox Series X and PS5, without details at the moment for Xbox Series S, which of course will receive improvements, but still undetermined.

And it is that this arcade of platforms so colorful and particular we are sure that it will paint great with the typical improvements of the new generation. If you don’t know what we thought last year, here is the analysis, which is precisely from a server.

Specifically, we are not talking about any improvement, because again, another title is aimed at both including Ray Tracing, in this case, Pumpkin Jack will have two graphic modes, one based on Quality, which reaches 4K resolution, quality ultra effects or shadows and ray tracing, however, will run at 30fps.

On the other hand, we will have the well-known performance mode, which should not be despised, since it discards some of the ultra and Ray Tracing improvements, but still maintains the 4K objective, but at 60 fps.

Pumpkin Jack arrives at the nextgen in time for Halloween

It should be remembered how curious Pumpkin Jack is and the merit of being developed by a single person, Nicolas Meyssonier, all in Unreal Engine and with an incredible result that reminds us a lot of the golden age of platforms like Medievil.

We will have to be attentive to their new projects, but for now, we can only tell you that this update is totally free, so if you bought it at the time and you have not touched it yet, perhaps this is the moment. Well, rather on October 27, which will be when the version of this generation is released.

Some time ago, Ubisoft announced the presence of an expansion for its open-world game, Watch Dogs: Legion, entitled Bloodline.

The Bloodline expansion is currently available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC via EGS or the Ubisoft Store.

In this expansion, players will later play as Aiden Pearce who must find Wrench because he has a special task so that his brother Jackson is not harmed.

In addition to bringing the Bloodline expansion, Ubisoft is also presenting a new Season Pass in Watch Dogs: Legion which brings a lot of interesting content and also the option to add Aiden or Wrench to DedSec Resistance in the campaign and online mode.

It is known that Aiden Pearce will come with abilities such as Focus for Slowmo aiming, System Crash to turn off electronic devices, and also Gunslinger to give buff damage. Then for Wrench, there are abilities such as Summon Sergei, Ninja Balls, Lady Smash, and MPX SMG/LTL Grenade Launcher.
