For those of you still playing The Elder Scrolls: Legends card game, and I have to confess I've lapsed for the last few months, a new expansion is on the way, and might finally make your dwemer-based dreams come true. Return to Clockwork City will be released on 30 November, and will add 55 new cards plus 35 story missions to the game. This is the second PvE expansion Legends has received, the first being The Fall of the Dark Brotherhood which launched in April this year.

http://www.pcgamer.com/pubg-release-date/
At Paris Games Week Today, the developers of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds announced it's leaving Early Access this December. "Late December," to be more precise. That release looks like it will closely follow the launch of the Xbox One version of PUBG on December 12, which will include the much-anticipated vaulting system that's coming to the PC test servers soon.

>>So XboxOne players will get the final game before PC players? That's odd, and not fair.

Gods Will Be Watching developer Deconstructeam has unveiled its new project, The Red Strings Club, a point-and-click adventure—or, if that description doesn't ignite your neon, "a cyberpunk narrative experience about fate and happiness featuring the extensive use of pottery, bartending and impersonating people on the phone to take down a corporate conspiracy." Okay, that sounds more like our wheelhouse.

http://www.pcgamer.com/crossing-souls-is-an-adventure-game-styled-after-80s-cartoons/
Crossing Souls is an action game with some RPG thrown in starring five schoolkids who can travel between worlds using a pink crystal. It's set in a pixelated California, but its retro aesthetic hides cutscenes styled after the cartoons of the '80s, especially Saint Seiya, He-Man, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and the Teen Wolf cartoon.

http://www.pcgamer.com/destiny-2-hotfixes-amd-phenom-ii-woes-but-bungie-still-working-on-widespread-stutter-issue/
Update: Ask and it seems ye shall sometimes received.

As a result the game will be taken offline on November 2 in order to implement hotfix 1.0.6.1.

http://www.pcgamer.com/this-is-what-call-of-duty-wwii-loot-boxes-falling-from-the-sky-looks-like/
Something a little unusual about the loot boxes in Call of Duty: WWII, as reported in August by Game Informer (via Charlie Intel), is that players will be eligible to win in-game rewards simply for watching other people open them. A brief video uploaded to the Call of Duty subreddit yesterday demonstrates how that system will work.

Goblins of Elderstone is a city builder where you control the bad guys
http://www.pcgamer.com/goblins-of-elderstone-is-a-city-builder-where-you-control-the-bad-guys/
Goblins get a bad rap. They're the trash mobs of RPGs, the entry-level enemies of fantasy strategy games, and generally thought to be just as killable as, say, Nazis. Developer Lost Goblin doesn't like that. They want to see goblins in the spotlight, and they intend to put them there with Goblins of Elderstone, a city builder and "goblin tribe simulator" where goblins are only as evil and stupid as you want them to be.
