Respawn Entertainment is set to release Frontier’s Edge, the second of three confirmed add-on packs for Titanfall, on July 31, as the developer confirmed in a San Diego Comic Con livestream (via GameSpot). The three new multiplayer maps — Dig Site, Haven, and Export — will cost $10 on its own, but you can also grab a $25 Season Pass to get that, the previously released Expedition DLC, and a to-be-announced third pack.

July 31 is also the day that Titanfall‘s next major title update arrives. As we learned during the run-up to Comic Con, the coming update introduces in-game credits as currency. Players will be able to spend their earned credits in the game’s new Black Market, where Burn Card booster packs will be purchasable.

Respawn stressed in its earlier announcement that the coming of in-game credits does not pave the way for future microtransactions. You won’t be able to buy those credits using real world dollars, Respawn says, either nowor in the future.

The debate around GTA 6's "physical" edition just got another twist. Rockstar has confirmed on its official website that PS5 download codes included with physical copies of Grand Theft Auto VI sold in Japan will expire 170 days after the game's November 19, 2026 launch date. That means players who don't redeem the code before roughly May 8, 2027 could be left with nothing more than an empty game box, even though they purchased a physical copy. The company says the policy is required due to regional regulations in Japan.

Why only Japan?

Fresh off launching a metallic Hall-effect keyboard and a 59g gaming mouse for flashy esports setups, Lenovo has turned its attention to gamers working with much tighter budgets. The Legion 24-1r looks made for broke college students who spent way too much on their first gaming rig and now have instant noodles doing most of the heavy lifting at dinner. It costs just 669 yuan, equivalent to around $99, yet offers a 23.8-inch IPS panel running at up to 280Hz.

Lenovo is also offering the 27-inch Legion 27-1r with the same core specifications for 789 yuan, or roughly $116. For the ramen-budget crowd chasing competitive frame rates, both look like seriously tempting deals. (via NotebookCheck)
