Evolve, Turtle Rock Studios’ hotly anticipated monster vs. hunters multiplayer game, now has a free mobile companion game, Evolve: Hunters Quest. The game is available now for Android, iOS, and Windows Phone.

Hunters Quest looks like a typical match-3 game, with players swiping icons around to create and clear matching lines of three or more. Chaining together combos of cascading matches powers up special abilities for your hunters to use, much like in match-3 games such as Marvel Puzzle Quest.

What makes Hunters Quest stand out from its peers is a direct connection to Evolve. Playing Hunters Quest earns you Mastery Boosts that can be applied to your hunters in the main game. You can also unlock special badges for Evolve by completing special objectives in Hunters Quest.

Once Evolve arrives, Hunters Quest will gain a whole new suite of features to help you track your stats in the main game. Detailed statistics, global rankings, and top-down replays of your last ten games will be stored on your my2K profile and accessible on the go through Hunters Quest.

Evolve arrives on February 10 for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One. Hunters Quest is available for free now on Android, iOS, and Windows Phone.

How to start the Nuka-World DLC in Fallout 4

People standing outside Nuka World.

The first major DLC expansion for Fallout 4 lets players go to the abandoned amusement park called Nuka-World. While there's plenty of fun and excitement to be had here, don't expect it to come from the roller coasters or carnival games since this park is the battleground between rival raider gangs. This new zone adds a ton of new quests and side activities to the base experience, but it isn't as simple to get to as a real theme park. Don't worry if your Pip-Boy isn't helping you get to Nuka-World -- we'll show you how to start this DLC.

How to start the Automatron DLC in Fallout 4

A man and a robot walking in the wastelands in Fallout 4.

Each piece of Fallout 4 DLC adds something substantial to the base experience. In the case of the Automatron expansion, an entire new questline pitting you against a robot army led by a figure known as the Mechanist. Starting it isn't as difficult as starting other DLCs like the Nuka-World expansion, but it-s still a bit cryptic. Buying the DLC doesn't automatically make it apparent how to actually start this new adventure, but we'll give you specific directions to find it in the wasteland.

One of 2023’s best indie games is getting a movie starring LaKeith Stanfield

El Paso, Elsewhere, one of Digital Trends' favorite indie games of 2023, now has a film adaptation in the works.

Variety reports that LaKeith Stanfield -- an actor known for his work in films like Judas and the Black Messiah, Knives Out, and Haunted Mansion, as well as TV shows like Atlanta -- is going to star in and produce the film. The adaptation is in the works at Di Bonaventure Pictures, the production company behind the Transformers, G.I. Joe, and The Meg film franchises. Little else is known about the film at this time, although we'd presume it will be a fairly direct adaptation of this intense story-driven game.
