You can play the future right now.
Capcom announced the final character coming to Street Fighter V's roster. Meet Luke. This is a new character and, according to Capcom, a "key player in the future of the series." This seems to indicate that Luke will be one of the key stars in Street Fighter VI.

PSA: Far Cry 5 is Free for the Weekend
Get those preloads started now.
Everybody likes free. That seems to be something that Ubisoft is aware of because they're making Far Cry 5 available to play for free this weekend. You can play it for free via either the Epic Games Store or Ubisoft Connect on PC. You can also play during the free weekend on Xbox, PlayStation, and Stadia. Yeah, it's strangely not going to be available for free on Steam, which is a platform known for its free weekends. Weird.

Then it was delayed in July 2020 until some time in 2021. Then in February of this year it was pushed to August. And now, here we are in August of 2021 and the game is now delayed... -

Final Fantasy 14 Icon Changed After Complaints from Users with Trypophobia

It's not much of one, but it is still delayed nonetheless.
Back in June, we shared the news that SkateBIRD was slated to be released on August 12. Sadly, that release date has been pushed back ever so slightly. The new release date is now September 16. So yeah, it's not a big delay but it's one that I felt was worth sharing if you were looking forward to being a skateboarding bird.
