It’s the 13th of May. Xbox Game Preview title Deep Rock Galactic launched into full 1.0 status this week. This 4-player co-op sci-fi adventure will have you venture deep into the earth as Gunner, Scout, Driller, or Engineer in search of valuable resources, but watch out! There are some truly dangerous creatures in the caves. Next, FIFA 20 just dropped in the EA Access Vault. EA Access members can now play the Frostbite-driven football experience, with the all-new and supremely fun street Volta game mode as well as FIFA Ultimate Team. Apex Legends Season 5 kicked off this week with the addition of new legend Loba. She’s a talented thief with the ability to teleport, and the passive ability to see epic and legendary loot through walls. Her ultimate ability is a portable device that teleports nearby loot to your inventory. Season 5 also adds a brand-new battle pass and a new season quest titled Broken Ghost. Thanks for listening and we’ll see you tomorrow.
