Fortnite's Creative Playground mode is around the corner!

Epic Games announced a new mode to Fortnite called "Creative Playground". It was teased in the new updates message over the weekend with a brief description:
“Let your creativity run wild on your own private island!”
“Battle and build to your heart's content with an extended period of time to roam around the map as well as increased resource generation. All treasure chests and ammo crates will be spawned, try droppin’ in different spots and scope out the loot. Friendly fire is on so you can scrimmage with your squad (up to 4 friends per match), but fear not you’ll respawn immediately.”
It'll be a limited time event, same as the 50 vs 50 game-mode. This one will let your creative-self to flow, letting you roam on a island with up to 4 friends just to build and have some fun with the friendly-fire. It's not only a fun mode to get creative, but also can be useful to practice your aim!
Don't miss the chance to roam free with your friends in your Private Island!

Overwatch teases new hero!
The team behind Overwatch posted this video in its twitter account:
Seems like a big metallic ball making its way through an alleyway... And that's it. There's no much to it but we're now certain that a New Hero is coming soon enough!
What does it all mean? Is Samus Aran joining the Overwatch cast with her morph ball power? Sonic, is that you rolling around at the speed of sound?

Limbo Prime is the new warframe to join the game’s ever-growing roster. The 57th warframe to be exact!
This warframe will hack & slash all its way through in a fashionable style. It's not called "The Golden Getleman" for nothing!
“The Rifts are opening and a Cataclysm is about to begin. Wield the wily Void magician, bend the power of the Void to your will, and outwit your enemies.
Limbo Prime Access Features
- Limbo Prime: Manipulate the Void as the golden gentleman.
- Limbo Prime Glyphs: Embody Limbo Prime with these Prime Glyphs.
- Destreza Prime: Precise strikes and high Puncture damage make this Prime rapier devastating against armored targets.
- Pyrana Prime: A far cry from a gentleman’s traditional dueling pistol, this Tenno secondary automatic shotgun shreds enemies with ease.”
Those who decide to buy the Limbo Prime Access will get the new Warframe, Limbo Prime Glyphs, Merciless Weapons, Rift Walker Primer Sigil, Oblivia Prime Syandana, a 90-DAY Affinity booster, and a 90-day credit booster. Sounds like a really good deal.

Edmund McMillen has announced his next take on the Binding of Isaac universe!
McMillen twitted a while ago that he was working on a secret project, and recently he teased that it is a turn-based, multiplayer strategy game based on the Binding of Isaac universe.
He clarified that it's a sort of spin-off that connects the end of The Binding of Isaac to ideas he has for a sequel. It'll be like a "After/During" the end of the current game.
Here's all we know about this Mystery Isaac game:
- It's titled The Binding of Isaac: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (and the last letter is 's')
- It can only be played in local multiplayer. There is no singleplayer component, and you can't play online. McMillen says playing with four people "is ideal."
- It's a turn-based "casual strategy" game that uses cards. But while it is something of a card game, it doesn't have a mana system like Hearthstone or a land system like Magic: The Gathering.
- There are currently eight playable characters, and McMillen is working on more.

On the side notes:
- Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC may be announced thanks to a Rockstar programmer's LinkedIn profile saying that he has worked with RDR 2 across PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

- PUBG hits 400M total players, 227M monthly active users, and 87M daily active counting mobile!

- Warframe surpasses Dota 2 on the Steam's revenue charts. It's not surprise now that Warframe is the Top 1 F2P multiplayer game!
That's all for now!
