The Borderlands 3 x Fortnite crossover started this week and there are six new Welcome to Pandora challenges for you to complete.

GTFO's large Infection update is now available

The large Infection update is now available for GTFO. GTFO's Infection update is live and adds additional levels to the action-horror first-person shooter through a new environment laid out over 10 new maps. You can see some of what to expect in the developer playthrough of one of the new levels below. In the video, the developers are on a mission to transport batteries to four different power generators. Because the batteries they are carrying are heavy, they can’t use their weapons, forcing cooperation with other teammates.

Uncharted 4 reviews - all the scores

Nathan Drake always scores big on his treasure hunts. Can he do the same with critics? Surviving more than a few delays and even losing a few copies to theft, Uncharted 4 is finally ready for public consumption. But before that, reviews must first set the stage for next week's launch. Uncharted 4 is directed by The Last of Us directors Neil Druckmann and Bruce Straley, having took the reins following the departure of Amy Hennig, the series' former creative lead.

Dark Souls 3: how to one hit KO Pontiff Sulyvahn

It's not easy, but it can be done. Dark Souls 3 has several difficulty spikes and the Pontiff Sulyvahn boss fight is definitely one of them. Not everyone will struggle with this dual-wielding asshole, but those who do will bash themselves against him again and again. My own strategy is "summon someone who knows what the heck they're doing", but YouTuber neptunusequester had a better plan, tackling the boss as a one hit knock out (1HKO) challenge.

Metal Gear Survive is The Phantom Pain with added co-op

Konami promises gameplay of Metal Gear spin-off isn't that much of a departure for fans. Konami's surprise reveal for Metal Gear Survive yesterday may have ignited the internet's angriest fans, but the publisher has said it's not that much of a departure from the Metal Gear Solid players will recognise. Speaking during Gamescom, Konami said that Metal Gear Survive will feel like the last release in the series, The Phantom Pain, but with added four-player co-op and a survival theme.

Replaying older Battlefield games proves how hard DICE dropped the ball with Battlefield 5

Going back and playing older Battlefield games really does give you perspective. It’s the beginning of February, and Big Video Games are thin on the ground. In the absence of a zeitgeist-ruling new triple-A release, I’ve been catching up on some of last year’s gems in between my frustrated, confused bouts with the hot 2016 release, Escape from Tarkov. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare dominated much of my free time over the holiday break, but after completing the Battle Pass and reaching max level, there was nothing really left for me to grind.

Resident Evil 3: Cloud Version may be coming to Switch soon

A new datamine provides yet another hint that Resident Evil 3 may be coming to Nintendo Switch at some point in the near future. As spotted over on gaming forum Resetera, a title screen for Resident Evil 3: Cloud Version can be found almost hidden away on the same site you need to visit to launch the cloud version of Control on Nintendo Switch. After Nintendo announced both Control and Hitman 3 for Switch via cloud streaming yesterday in a surprise Nintendo Direct Mini, it's not really a shock to see more big games being lined up for the hybrid handheld/home console.
