Let's go with E3 Monday and the news that come with it. To make it somewhat easier for all of us, I'll simply put the headline and link for each article and, if a publisher or developer has more than one article, I'll group them together.
SALES & DEALS
Satisfactory has sold 500K copies on Epic Games Store, is Coffee Stain Studios’ most successful game launch
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/satisfactory-has-sold-500k-copies-on-epic-games-store-is-coffee-stain-studios-most-successful-game-launch/
Coffee Stain Studios has announced that its latest PC game, Satisfactory, has sold 500K copies on the Epic Games Store. And while the game is currently available exclusively on Epic’s store, it is the most successful game launch for Coffee Stain Studios so far.
Medieval first-person melee game, Mordhau, has sold more than one million copies
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/medieval-first-person-melee-game-mordhau-has-sold-more-than-one-million-copies/
Triternion has announced that its Medieval first-person melee game, Mordhau, has sold more than one million copies. Mordhau was released on April 29th, meaning that it took a bit over a month in order to hit that one million milestone.
Watch Dogs 2, Ghost Recon Wildlands, and Far Cry Primal are $5 each on the Epic Games Store
https://www.pcgamer.com/watch-dogs-2-ghost-recon-wildlands-and-far-cry-primal-are-dollar5-each-on-the-epic-games-store/
The Epic Games Store has its fair share of critics, and there are some good reasons to be critical—its half-assed search functionality, for instance, or the inability to easily pull full-res screenshots from store pages. But it also offers some pretty spectacular prices at times, including at this moment a trio of big-name games from Ubisoft—Far Cry Primal, Ghost Recon Wildlands, and Watch Dogs 2—that you can pick up for just $5 each.
Each of the games is on sale for $15, which is a good deal on its own. But Epic is slicing another $10 off the top of every game in its ongoing Mega Sale priced $14.99 or higher, so those $15 games end up a fiver—three for the price of one, basically. And when you compare that to the regular price points—$50 for Far Cry and Wildlands, $60 for Watch Dogs 2—you very suddenly find yourself deep in "screamin' good deal territory."
>> That's not all, tho, because The Division 2 is half its price until Thursday.
Hellblade and Moonlighter are early unlocks for next Humble Monthly Bundle
https://www.pcgamer.com/hellblade-and-moonlighter-are-early-unlocks-for-next-humble-monthly-bundle/
Ninja Theory's harrowing hack-and-slasher Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice and dungeon-crawling shop sim Moonlighter are the early unlocks for July's Humble Monthly, which means you can play them both right now for $12.

SOFTWARE & DRIVERS
Windows Game Pass price revealed for PC
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/windows-game-pass-price-revealed-for-pc/
As we revealed in an article last year, Microsoft’s Phil Spencer announced his intentions to migrate the widely-beloved Game Pass to Windows 10 users, which has been the privilege of Xbox Players until now. It seems the service is about to launch in beta form soon, and Microsoft has finally revealed the pricing for early adopters.
It has been announced that the service will set you back roughly the equivalent of $4.99 per month for the basic package. For your fiver, you will get access to a collection of seven confirmed games, with three upcoming games also announced, namely Gears 5, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, and The Master Chief Collection for PC.
This is Steam's new design, according to a leak
https://www.pcgamer.com/this-is-steams-new-design-if-a-leak-is-to-be-believed/
Steam Database has revealed images of what is supposedly a work-in-progress version of Steam's ongoing interface redesign. SteamDB said the pictures were "leaked through an update to the Chinese CS:GO launcher".
If they're legitimate, then it's certainly an upgrade on the current client—it's sleeker, and should be easier to navigate. I especially like how each game gets an icon in your library list on the left of your screen, as in other launchers. Update: These icons are already in the current version of Steam, but they're turned off by default. If you want to turn them on, click the plus sign at the top of your games list.

Minecraft looks like a next-gen game with Ray Tracing and new 2K textures
https://www.dsogaming.com/videotrailer-news/minecraft-looks-like-a-next-gen-game-with-ray-tracing-and-new-2k-textures/
YouTube’s ‘Ultimate Immersion’ has released a new video that will blow you away. This video shows Minecraft with the recently added Ray Tracing/Path Tracing effects and some custom 2K textures. The end result is so great that makes this retro title look like a truly next-gen game and… trust us… you really need to see it.
