Celebrate 10 years of ‘BioShock’ with an amazing collector’s edition

Celebrating 10 Years of BioShock
Today marks the 10th anniversary of the BioShock series, which began with the Xbox 360-exclusive original game in the underwater city of Rapture before moving to Columbia with BioShock Infinite. To celebrate the occasion, 2K Games has created the “BioShock 10th Anniversary Collector’s Edition,” which is a must-have for dedicated fans.

Available to order from both the official 2K store as well as GameStop, the 10th Anniversary Collector’s Edition comes with BioShock: The Collection for either Xbox One or PlayStation 4. This was originally released last year and comes bundles with all three BioShock games as well as their downloadable content with a nice coat of 1080p paint.

But the game isn’t what you’re paying $200 for — the extra cash is for one of the coolest video game statues we’ve ever seen. The 11-in figure features both a Big Daddy and a Little Sister from the original BioShock, complete with lights and audio for both characters. The Big Daddy’s drill is even motorized, if he doesn’t already look terrifying enough.

The small details on the figure are equally impressive. In addition to an aged tile floor that looks like it was pulled straight from a building in Rapture, there is a “window” showing off the city in all its dystopian glory. The Big Daddy is standing in a puddle of water that’s splashing up at his feet, and the Little Sister’s eyes even glow — if you’ve played the game, you know that the cause of this is a crucial plot point that can affect the ending.

The BioShock 10th Anniversary Collector’s Edition is available for pre-order right now, and it will release on November 11 exclusively in the United States. If you’re just interested in snagging the base game for a cheaper price, you can do that now, as well. It only costs $30 for all three games, which should keep you occupied as the enormous wave of $60 games hits store shelves in the next few weeks.

What’s your favorite game in the BioShock series. Are you interested in this collector’s edition, or are you holding out for a Booker and Elizabeth figure? Let us know in the comments, would you kindly?

New Atari 50 DLC shows the Intellivision acquisition is already paying off
An Atari 2600+ sits on a table.

Digital Eclipse's Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration is an excellent and comprehensive look back at the company's now classic video game lineup, with games to play and extra content to interact with. So far, it's gotten one DLC: The Wider World of Atari, that added even more titles. Now, it's about to get its second, thanks to an acquisition it made earlier this year.

Atari announced The First Console War on Friday, and it's about, as you can guess, the company's first console war with the Intellivision, although it'll touch on a specific element of it. In the 1980s, Mattel was publishing games on the Intellivision. At some point, it decided to release versions of these console exclusives for its main competitor, the Atari 2600, under the M Network label. There are 19 of these games coming to Atari 50 with The First Console War, which is set to launch on November 8 for PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4 Atari 50 owners.

Is Monster Hunter Wilds cross-platform?
Two hunters ride mounts in Monster Hunter Wilds.

Of all the genres that we think need to be on the list of cross-platform games, hunting games like Monster Hunter Wilds have to be near the top. These are a rather unique style of game compared to the likes of Fallout 76, Genshin Impact, or Stardew Valley. Each of those has cooperative or competitive elements to them that are enhanced by cross-platform support, but nothing like what Monster Hunter Wilds has going on. The game will allow you to call in NPCs to help you on the hunt, but these games are best when you get a group of real friends together and embark on an epic quest to slay a giant beast, scavenge it for parts, and return to camp victorious. Monster Hunter Rise eventually got cross-platform support once it was ported off the Switch, but will Monster Hunter Wilds launch with this feature? Here's what you need to know about cross-platform support in one of our most anticipated upcoming games.
Is Monster Hunter Wilds cross-platform?

Monster Hunter Wilds will only have partial cross-platform support. The good news is that the part that it will have is crossplay, meaning that you and friends on either PS5, Xbox Series X/S, or PC can all hunt together with no issues. This feature can be disabled if you wish, but will be enabled by default to make sure desperate hunters can always find some aid when in need.

Fortnite’s new season, Chapter 2 Remix, is getting a star-studded event that will run through November. The music-focused event will see the battle royale partnering with Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and more artists to remix the game’s map each week.

The new announcement is the next phase of Epic’s goal to turn Fortnite into the “ultimate hub for social entertainment experiences,” as a representative from Epic explained during a press event. The game has had several musical collaborations previously, including the Guitar Hero-like Fortnite Festival mode that launched last year. This update brings that idea to the next level by partnering with four musical superstars.
