Month: March 2020

Borderlands 3 is preparing for another level cap increase to come alongside the release of Guns, Love, and Tentacles. When the update hits on March 26 you can raise your Vault Hunter’s max level to 57, an increase of four more points since it was last raised in February. And this particular increase could have a big impact on gameplay.

As noted on the Borderlands blog, the new level cap will allow you to select two capstone skills rather than the standard one. Those skills are among the most powerful in a Vault Hunter’s arsenal, so being able to double-up opens a whole new array of possibilities. Gearbox says it anticipates this to come with a “huge surge of power for endgame players” and the ability to experiment with wild new build types.

The blog also reiterated that the game is on track to follow its spring 2020 roadmap, which includes Mayhem 2.0 in April. That will give Mayhem Mode a dedicated tab in your Echo Device so you can adjust it on the fly. There will be 10 Mayhem levels and 25 modifiers, and the higher your Mayhem level, the better loot will drop.

Ghost Recon Breakpoint was not only a disappointment critically, but a commercial one for Ubisoft. But its developer isn’t calling it quits yet, and today’s big title update is proof of that. Breakpoint’s new immersive mode and Episode 2 of its ongoing DLC content are now live. To mark the occasion, Breakpoint will be free to play from March 26 to March 29 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

Deep State, the latest adventure to be added to Breakpoint, has Splinter Cell protagonist Sam Fisher link up with the ghosts again, this time to help track and take down a new threat on the island of Auroa. Sam Fisher previously crossed-over with this franchise in Ghost Recon: Wildlands, despite not having his own game to star in for many years.

The title update also includes the long-awaited Ghost Experience, after it was delayed at the last minute the last time out by Ubisoft. This new gameplay toolset lets you customize your Breakpoint experience to your taste, letting you toggle settings like regenerating health, HUD elements, and more. You can read the full patch notes for more information.

Ahead of Star Trek: Picard’s season finale this Thursday, Sir Patrick Stewart announced that CBS All Access has a new 30-day free trial with promo code GIFT. CBS All Access normally has a seven-day free trial period, so this is a nice bump to help you pass the time while at home. The promo code is good until April 23 and even lets you enjoy the commercial free plan (regularly $10 per month).

Naturally, the free month comes at a great time, especially for those itching to watch Picard, the CBS All Access-exclusive show that debuted earlier this year. With the 10-episode Season 1 arc coming to a close this week, you’ll have plenty of time to binge every episode. CBS All Access is also home to two seasons of Star Trek: Discovery, a series that takes place about a decade before the original series, and the reboot of The Twilight Zone narrated and hosted by Jordan Peele.

In addition to original programming, CBS All Access boasts a significant collection of ongoing and past CBS shows. If you’ve cut the cord and rely on streaming services now, this is definitely a good opportunity to catch up on some network TV you’ve missed out on.
