Daily Deals: Pick up an Oculus Quest 2 and Get Newegg Credit in the Process
It’s Sunday! Time to relax, browse some deals and save some money. Persona 5 Strikers is still discounted over at Newegg, so if you’re looking to dip your toes back into that universe, this is a great way to do so. Best Buy also has tons of TVs on sale, and any interested in playing Watch Dogs Legion is in luck, as there’s a giant discount on the PS5 and Xbox One version of the game. Did we mention that buying an Oculus Quest 2 at Newegg nets you a free $10 Newegg card? Because it does, and it’s a great little incentive to jump into the VR world.

Treyarch has released a new update for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and almost all of it addresses issues players have encountered since Outbreak launched with Season 2. The ambitious new mode is a large-scale spin on Zombies, complete with its own story, so it’s hardly surprising that some rough edges needed to be fixed.
Outbreak received a general stability improvement as part of the update, particularly regarding objectives and both the Krasny Soldat and the Dragon Relic. You also shouldn’t see Mimics teleport away after they’re spawned from loot chests, nor should the HVT Megaton split when it’s hit by a vehicle.
A few other fixes were also included in the update, such as UI and tooltips not showing up correctly, and a player’s Operator model disappearing. It’s not the largest update we’ve seen in Call of Duty, but we got one of those just a few days ago. In fact, the file sizes for both Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War and Warzone have gotten so large that players with 500GB PS4 systems may struggle to keep the games installed. This is especially true if they’re interested in playing anything else, as some of that 500GB is needed for the console’s operating system and can’t be used to store games.

Do VPNs Improve Gaming?
VPN services are becoming increasingly popular, but how can they be used for gaming?Valorant Agent Astra Comes To Game Alongside Battle Pass On March 2
Riot Games has revealed a new agent for Valorant, Astra, who will be able to cause chaos with astronomy-themed attacks and a powerful Gravity Well ability. The agent, originally from Ghana, acts as a controller in matches and should help to keep the other team from making coordinated strikes. She’ll be live in the game on March 2.
One of the most unique aspects of Astra is her ability to soar above the map in order to get a better perspective, though you’ll be leaving her actual, physical body at risk of being attacked while you do so. Using her Astral Form, she’s able to place down stars that can then be turned into a Nebula, powerful Nova Pulse, or a Gravity Well that traps and damages those caught inside.
A new battle pass is also on the way, giving you more cosmetic unlockables for Valorant’s characters. It costs 1,000 VP, with the paid track giving you a Prism III Axe melee, Cavalier Vandal, Cavalier Operator, Make Some Noise spray, and Versus // Sova + Cypher card. A few freebies are available, too, including a Prism III Classic pistol and a Dumpster Fire spray.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Is Getting A Board Game
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has been ported to just about everything at this point, including Nintendo Switch and even Amazon Alexa. But Modiphius Entertainment sees one more platform it can be on: cardboard. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – The Board Game is in the works, and it appears the company will be seeking crowdfunding to make it possible.
In a listing on the crowdfunding site Gamefound, Modiphius described The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – The Board Game as an “epic cooperative board game” that will be playable by one to four players. It’s honestly baffling that it took this long for a Skyrim board game to be made at all. Presumably, the game will involve one of the quests we saw in the video game, as well as dragons. We could do without any “arrow in the knee” jokes.
