Torchwood’s Cast Reuniting for New Audio Adventure, Believe
A Torchwood reunion is coming, reuniting the five members of the show’s original cast for a new audio play called Believe.
Digital Spy reports that John Barrowman and co. will come together for the audio drama, slated for release in April.
“It’s been ten years since there’s been an adventure featuring Jack, Gwen, Ianto, Tosh and Owen, and coming up with something big enough – and complex enough – to need them was great fun,” said writer Guy Adams.
According to the synopsis, “The Church of the Outsiders believe that mankind is about to evolve, to reach out into the stars. Owen Harper believes that Torchwood has to do whatever it takes to stop them.”

Next Dragon Age Will Be a ‘Live’ Game
Bioware’s Casey Hudson has said that the in-development Dragon Age game will be a “live” experience, which “means designing a game for continued storytelling after the main story.”
Speaking on Twitter, Hudson confirmed that the game will remain “story
character focused”, but added the idea of it being “live” afterwards.
Reading lots of feedback regarding Dragon Age, and I think you’ll be relieved to see what the team is working on. Story & character focused.
Too early to talk details, but when we talk about “live” it just means designing a game for continued storytelling after the main story.

Ubisoft Introduces Loot Boxes Into Ghost Recon: Wildlands
In the midst of the ongoing loot box controversy, Ubisoft has waded in and rolled out paid-for loot boxes in Ghost Recon: Wildlands. Before we get too worked up, it’s worth noting that the items inside them have no effect on gameplay stats, and are cosmetic items for character customisation. Phew!
The Ubisoft blog explains that the new Battle Crates – available in the Extended Ops update today – will be divided into loot boxes for the campaign and co-op mode (Spec Ops Crates) and boxes for the Ghost War mode (Ghost War Crates). All crate types will “have zero impact on gameplay and player’s progression, and will be “fair in terms of the items given to players.”
