Fortnite — once a free-to-play battle royale game — has hosted numerous in-game events, such as concerts by Marshmello and Travis Scott. The latter’s concert series earlier this spring drew a record-setting 27 million players to log on and watch.

Street Fighter 6 shows off its new style in debut trailer

Chun Li fighting other girl

This summer's PlayStation State of Play was packed tight with big names, including Street Fighter 6. Capcom revisited the highly anticipated follow-up to its flagship fighting game series with a detailed trailer that showcases the setting, gameplay, and versus mode, including cameos from Ryu and Chun-Li. It looks slick, even if it's shifting the art direction from what Street Fighter fans already know.

Street Fighter 6 stars a new protagonist called Luke -- introduced in the first few moments of the trailer. We see him training at a martial arts gym in what looks like New York City. Heck, the Statue of Liberty is pictured in a zoomed-out shot of the harbor. Like Street Fighter 5, it seems that Street Fighter 6 will have some kind of story mode. It involves some open-world exploration, where Luke will meet roam the streets of New York and take on familiar fighters from the series. Ryu and Chun-Li appear, along with other newcomers Jamie and Kimberly.

Fortnite: When is the Collision event and how to attend

4 Fortnite characters standing in front of Mecha Team Leader with the word "COLLISION" atop them.

Fortnite chapter 3, season 2's finale is coming very soon. As is usually the case at the end of a season, the game is dropping a one-time event that will connect it to season 3. This chapter's big ending is titled "Collision" and is set to be the grand return of the mecha bear known as Mecha Team Leader. Thankfully, it'll be harder to miss than ever for everyone with Fortnite returning to Apple devices with Xbox Cloud.

Collision not only marks the end of another season, but the end of the Zero Point story arc as well. However, Epic Games doesn't want you to go into the event solo. You're going to need some backup. Here's everything you need to know about Collision so you don't miss out on the next climactic Fortnite event.
When is Fortnite's Collision event?
Collision is set to start at 1 p.m. PT on Saturday June 4. Remember, it's a one-time event, so if you miss it, it won't be returning in the future.
How to join Fortnite's Collision event
Before you decide to join up in the event playlist, you'll need a squad of four as it's a requirement for Collision. After you squad up via random fills or with friends, then you can simply pick the playlist and wait for it to start. It's recommended to queue up at least 30 minutes in advance to bypass any server errors due to player count.
Don't forget to finish quests and use earned Battle Stars
With Collision concluding another season, you'll want to make sure you finish any quests and unlock any desired rewards. Things like Omni Chips used to unlock Omni Swords and Prowler skin unlock quests completely disappear at the end of the season at 1 p.m. PT on June 4 .
