Cloudpunk, the taxi noir game that our own Fraser reckoned was the best Cyberpunk game of last year, is receiving an expansion that its developers describe as "sequel-sized," featuring a fully voiced campaign that "is even longer than the base game."

The wait is finally over, and the new Among Us map is now live. The Airship is the fourth map to be added to the game, and is also the biggest—and took longer than expected to arrive, developer Inner Sloth explained earlier this month, because of the sudden, extreme uptick in the game's popularity.

World of Warcraft: Shadowlands' 9.1 update will be hitting the Public Test Realm in "about two weeks," Blizzard confirmed in a forum post today. It's fantastic news for WoW players who are growing bored of Shadowlands, as the update, titled Chains of Domination, will be bringing a new raid, mega-dungeon, story quests, and a new subzone in the Maw to explore.

I wasn't into the R3mix car body in Rocket League's Season 2 Rocket Pass (...)
I think I'll struggle to resist the upcoming Season 3 Rocket Pass premium track, though. I really like the new car body, Tyranno, which has the Dominus hitbox. I especially like the stupid Tyranno variant and decal Psyonix shows off on the Season 3 Rocket Pass page—the one in the gallery below, which looks like it was designed to hurt our eyes by the dark lord of chromatic aberration.

We learned earlier this week that the Call of Duty: Warzone midseason update would weigh in at a whopping 134GB—or a relatively paltry 52GB for those willing to shuck Modern Warfare off their PCs. That update went live last night, which makes this a fine time to check out the patch notes to see what's changed.

It's been a long wait for the new Call of Duty: Warzone map, and it's wearing some fans out. It should be over soon enough, though: The current expectation is that the new map will be added at the end of season 2, on or around April 22, when Verdansk, uhh, explodes (maybe).

EA wants you to dodge, duck, dip, dive, and dodge your way through competitive ball-hucker Knockout City, throwing up an open beta for the 3v3 arena this Friday through Monday.

This Fortnite stonks skin is not an April Fools' joke
https://www.pcgamer.com/this-fortnite-stonks-skin-is-not-an-april-fools-joke/
On a day where games companies love announcing fake crap, Epic Games has just dropped a very real stonks skin in Fortnite.
The Diamond Hanz outfit is now available for 1,200 V-Bucks and comes with the classic stonks man himself, given a bit of Fortnite flair with some ripped suit trousers and a dishevelled suit jacket. There's also the 'gains' back bling, which of course is a bright orange arrow for the tip on the meme iceberg.

Three days into the Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Alpha, and the mood around the space sim's next update is a little sour. Now, Frontier has addressed two major issues with the early test—though it perhaps fails to address some of Odyssey's more fundamental problems.
