Title: All The Free Fortnite Cosmetics Available To Unlock Right Now Date: Fri, 03 Apr 2026 10:31:00 -0700 Link: https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/all-the-free-fortnite-cosmetics-available-to-unlock-right-now/2900-7550/ Fortnite is known as much for its paid cosmetics as it is for having arguably the best Battle Royale modes around. But these days, Fortnite offers so many free cosmetics at any given time that it's easier than ever to enjoy it without dropping a penny on skins, emotes, or other cosmetics. In Chapter 7, there are free items to unlock for every Epic-created mode, so you don't have to give up on collecting Fortnite cosmetics even if you're feeling the pain caused by the V-Buck price increase.With so much free stuff, it's not always easy to tell what is available to unlock, since there's no "here's all the free stuff you can earn" page in Fortnite itself. Scroll on to find out what exactly you can get, and what modes you'll need to play or, in some cases, what websites you'll need to make accounts for. Chapter 7 Season 2 battle pass free itemsThe Chapter 7 Season 2 battle pass, which runs until June 17, includes 27 items that you can earn for free by leveling up without buying the pass, as well as 300 V-Bucks that can be used in the item shop or put toward buying the battle pass, Lego pass, OG pass, or music pass. Many of the items are minor cosmetics like sprays, emoticons, loading screens, and banner icons.Highlights:Fishstick Pincushion back blingBugs' Mailbox pickaxeJules' Tech Board gliderVictory Catch pickaxeNew Classic Plasmaboard gliderCold's Cruel Bloom pickaxeGauntlet Greeting emoteCat-Cat-Kaboom back blingStrong Foundation weapon wrapElite Ohm back blingBobber Dropper contrailFoundation Faller contrail ShowdownThe battle royale storyline in Chapter 7 Season 2 involves a battle between the Ice King and the Foundation, with players forced to choose a side the first time they log in this season. There is also an additional set of quests related to this faceoff, but you'll need to log in on the Fortnite Showdown website to activate it. Once you've done so, you can complete a new quest each week for a new cosmetic. The quests are the kinds of things you'll likely complete naturally by playing, like getting eliminations and surviving storm circles, and players seem to be able to gain progress even on the quests that haven't unlocked yet. These rewards are available to earn through April 16.The items:Week 1: Rivaled Runner kicks (get 50 kills)Week 2: Goofyfoot Flail pickaxe (survive 30 circles)Week 3: Enticing Pie Emote (win one round of BR)Week 4: Eagle's Talons pickaxe Music PassThe Chappell Roan music pass includes nine free items that you can earn without buying the pass by leveling up in any Fortnite experience.

For starters, you can unlock the Backfire car body (pictured) and seven decals in both games simply by completing the tutorial quests for new players. A number of other car bodies, wheels, and other accessories can be unlocked at random via loot crates that you can earn by completing weekly and seasonal challenges. Any car body or accessory can be pulled from those crates, in theory. Rocket PassLike Fortnite's passes, the Rocket Pass also includes a variety of free items. Many of these items aren't the types of things that have an equivalent in Fortnite, like car toppers. But the Season 22 Rocket Pass, which runs until March 11, includes a set of wheels and a boost trail. You must play Rocket League to make progress on the Rocket Pass.Items:Gold Band wheelsDemigodly trail Rocket League tournamentsParticipating in Rocket League tournaments and getting wins earns points that can be used to open loot crates that contain random cosmetics.

Title: Genki Covert Dock 3 Solves The Switch 2’s Clutter Problem In One Plug Date: Fri, 03 Apr 2026 09:51:00 -0700 Link: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/genki-covert-dock-3-solves-the-switch-2s-clutter-problem-in-one-plug/1100-6539215/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f With the Switch 2 nearing its first anniversary, more products have been unveiled that add new functionality. One is the Genki Covert Dock 3, a handy and portable dock that works with the Switch 2 and lets you connect to a TV without carrying the bulky original dock.Available now and priced at $77, it can handle the beefier Switch 2 hardware, and it's compatible with handheld gaming PCs. If you're someone who travels often and you'd like to enjoy some big-screen gaming with your Switch 2 when you stop at a hotel, then this device is highly recommended.Essentially, Genki's dock allows you to use your Switch 2 in docked mode without having to worry about cable clutter. It's equipped with an HDMI 2.1 port that allows it to transmit up to 4K 120fps video to a screen, and it also supports HDR and variable refresh rate (VRR). That's a significant improvement over the previous model--which could handle up to 4K 60fps footage--and the USB-C port charges at up to 65W, so if you want to hook an Xbox ROG Ally X, it has more than enough power under the hood to do so. All you need is an HDMI cable and a power outlet with your handheld and the covert dock, and you're good to go.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Title: Crimson Desert interactive maps Date: Fri, 03 Apr 2026 20:21:57 GMT Link: https://www.polygon.com/map/crimson-desert-interactive-pywel-hernand-demeniss-pailune-delesyia/ Crimson Desert's continent of Pywel is a big ol' place, and it's easy to miss a lot of the best things the game has to offer if you don't know where to look. One of Crimson Desert's favorite things is to not tell you anything about how the game works, like how to find fast travel points and where to look for special abyss artifacts. Some of it is fine to find out on your own, but if you start lagging behind on abyss artifacts and weapon upgrades, you'll feel the effects sooner rather than later.

Title: NVIDIA Virtualizes Game Development With RTX PRO Server Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2026 15:30:07 +0000 Link: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/gdc-2026-virtual-game-development/ Game development teams are working across larger worlds, more complex pipelines and more distributed teams than ever. At the same time, many studios still rely on fixed, desk-bound GPU hardware for critical production work. At the Game Developers Conference (GDC) this week in San Francisco, NVIDIA is showcasing a new approach to bring together disparate workflows using virtualized game development on NVIDIA RTX PRO Servers, powered by NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs and NVIDIA vGPU software. With the RTX PRO Server, studios can centralize and virtualize core workflows across creative, engineering, AI research and quality assurance (QA) — all on shared GPU infrastructure in the data center.  This enables teams to maintain the responsiveness and visual fidelity they expect from workstation-class systems while improving infrastructure utilization, scalability, data security and operational consistency across teams and locations. Simplifying Complex Workflows As game development studios scale, hardware can often sit underutilized in one location while other teams wait to access it for production work. QA capacity is hard to expand quickly. Over time, workstation hardware, drivers and tools diverge, making bugs harder to reproduce. AI workloads are often isolated on separate infrastructure, creating more operational overhead.  The NVIDIA RTX PRO Server helps studios move from workstation-by-workstation scaling to centralized GPU infrastructure. Studios can pool resources, allocate performance by workload and support parallel development, testing and AI workflows without expanding physical workstation sprawl. Centralized GPU infrastructure enables studios to run AI training, simulation and game automation workloads overnight, then dynamically reallocate the same resources to interactive development during the day, improving overall utilization and reducing idle capacity. The NVIDIA RTX PRO Server supports virtualized workflows for 3D graphics and AI across the game development lifecycle for: Artists: Providing virtual RTX workstations for traditional 3D and generative AI content-creation workflows. Developers: Powering consistent, high-performance engineering environments for coding and 3D development. AI researchers: Offering large-memory GPU profiles for fine-tuning, inference and AI agents. QA teams: Enabling scalable game validation and performance testing using the same NVIDIA Blackwell architecture used by GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs. This allows studios to support multiple teams — including across sites and contractors — on one common GPU platform, improving collaboration and reducing debugging issues that can arise from disparate hardware. Supporting AI and Engineering on Shared Infrastructure AI is becoming a core part of everyday game development, spanning coding, content creation, testing and live operations. As these workflows expand, studios need infrastructure that can support AI alongside traditional graphics workloads without introducing separate, siloed systems. With the RTX PRO Server, studios can support coding agents, internal model experimentation and AI-assisted production workflows without spinning up a separate AI stack for every team. The NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPU features a massive 96GB memory buffer, enabling developers to run multiple demanding applications simultaneously while supporting AI inference on larger models directly alongside real-time graphics workflows. NVIDIA Multi-Instance GPU (MIG) technology partitions a single GPU into isolated instances with dedicated memory, compute and cache resources. Combined with NVIDIA vGPU software, MIG can help studios securely allocate GPU capacity across users and workloads. In combined MIG and vGPU configurations, a single RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPU can support up to 48 concurrent users, maximizing utilization while maintaining performance isolation. Enterprise-Ready Deployment for Game Studios NVIDIA RTX PRO Servers are designed for enterprise-grade data-center operations. Studios can deploy virtual workstations on RTX PRO Servers via NVIDIA vGPU on supported hypervisor and remote workstation platforms. That means RTX PRO Servers can fit into studios’ existing infrastructure and IT practices, rather than requiring one-off deployments. Major game publishers already use NVIDIA vGPU technology to scale centralized development infrastructure and improve efficiency at studio scale. ​Learn more about the NVIDIA RTX PRO Server. See these workflows live by joining NVIDIA’s booth 1426 at GDC or attending NVIDIA GTC, running March 16-19 in San Jose, California.  See notice regarding software product information.

We can’t thank you enough! When we first began work on the SEGA Villains Stage DLC, the plan was simply to create a few stages focused on boss battles, but since Lizardcube’s so dedicated to quality, we ended up filling the DLC with tons of features, including Hardcore Mode, new Ninpo inspired by the bosses, and customizable combat settings.

Title: Marathon isn't deathmatch gone wide, it's multiplayer Alien: Isolation and every other player is a xenomorph Date: Fri, 03 Apr 2026 13:00:00 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/marathon-isnt-deathmatch-gone-wide-its-multiplayer-alien-isolation-and-every-other-player-is-a-xenomorph The human colony on Tau Ceti IV has been abandoned for half a century, as far as anyone can tell. The only exports leaving the planet are those nabbed by Runners in mechanical bodies, like fruit pickers at the end of the universe. But there are imports, too, of a sort: elements pulled in from other extraction shooters, which reveal the kind of experience Bungie wanted to make. Namely, a stealth game. Read more

Title: Warren Spector's Thick as Thieves gets a bit less interesting as it ditches PvPvE for solo and co-op play Date: Thu, 02 Apr 2026 21:56:35 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/warren-spectors-thick-as-thieves-gets-a-bit-less-interesting-as-it-ditches-pvpve-for-solo-and-co-op-play In the summer of last year, during Day of the Devs, immersive sim legend Warren Spector said that at his studio OtherSide Entertainment, "we don't play it safe. We take chances." He was talking about his upcoming game Thick as Thieves, a multiplayer immersive sim that's basically Thief, except other people are trying to pull off the same heist as you on the same map, with all of you racing to get the loot first. Except it's not going to be that game anymore. Read more

Title: Skyblivion isn't "dead in the water", the Oblivion remake mod's lead says, a recent call for extra hands is about maintaining "good momentum" Date: Thu, 02 Apr 2026 20:47:48 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/skyblivion-isnt-dead-in-the-water-the-oblivion-remake-mods-lead-says-a-recent-call-for-extra-hands-is-about-maintaining-good-momentum Earlier this week the team behind Oblivion remake mod Skyblivion put out a call for some "final" and "vital" veteran help to get their work over the line in 2026. Given the mod's delay late last year and the fairly lengthy list of roles the post on Nexus Mods cited the Skyblivion crew as looking to fill, you'd be forgiven for wondering what this recruiting push might mean in terms of how work on the mod's going. However, Skyblivion's project lead Kyle 'Rebelzize' Rebel says it's not a sign that the project's "dead in the water", but instead a team who have been "stretched thin" for a long time trying to take advantage of "good momentum" they currently have as they work to tie up remaining loose ends.

Title: Xenonauts 2 hits 1.0 after almost three years of early access and paves the way for mods galore Date: Thu, 02 Apr 2026 20:32:37 +0000 Link: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/xenonauts-2-hits-10-after-almost-three-years-of-early-access-and-paves-the-way-for-mods-galore "The year is 2009," opens the 1.0 launch trailer for Xenonauts 2, a sentence that tickles me greatly considering the game's alternate future vibes. It presents a vision of the world that differed greatly from my actual experience of worrying about swine flu and whether or not Yu-Gi-Oh! was cool any more. And yet that is the reality of the turn-based tactics game, which exits out of early access almost three years after its initial release. Read more
