The launch lineup for the Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X is coming into focus. As part of Microsoft’s wider next-gen announcements on Wednesday, the company confirmed some of the launch titles for both consoles, and this includes Gears Tactics.

The XCOM-style strategy game from developer Splash Damage originally released in April on PC. Microsoft previously confirmed it was coming to console, but now we know exactly when: November 10. The game will also be available on the standard Xbox One.

In addition to Gears Tactics, Microsoft’s Gears 5 will be available for the Series S/X, and it will support up to 120FPS. Since the game is already available for the standard Xbox One, it will presumably be playable on Series S/X on launch day, too.

The Xbox Series X/S consoles will be available to preorder beginning September 22, and now the retail box art for the higher-tier console has emerged online.

Internet super sleuth Wario64 spotted the box art for the Series X. It prominently features the console’s unique cooling vents, along with the logos for Series X and the Xbox Velocity Architecture. The box also lets people know the console has a 1TB SSD and display options for 4K/120FPS. The art for the Series S console doesn’t appear to have emerged online yet.

We can’t tell from the picture alone, but this is probably a very big box considering the console itself is quite large. As people have pointed out on social media, the box gives off some Q*bert vibes.

A number of leaks suggest that a Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake announcement is likely to be revealed during Ubisoft Forward later today.

A small clip has leaked from the Russian Uplay store, which appears to show remastered visuals from the game ahead of a potential reveal during Ubisoft’s September 10 showcase. Yesterday, fans spotted Prince of Persia motifs and symbols in a piece of promotional art for Ubisoft Forward, and an Amazon UK listing for a ‘Prince of Persia Remake’ has also been found.

All of this evidence suggests that Ubisoft is raring up to reveal a remake of 2008’s Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, most likely during Ubisoft Forward.

A video surfaced in May showing test footage of a cancelled Prince of Persia pitch from 2012. For more information, check out our writeup here.

If it is indeed real, a Sands of Time remake would likely go down well – back in 2003 we awarded the original a 9.6/10 review, saying it was “a must own — a soon-to-be-classic worthy of a permanent place in your collection.”

Activision has revealed Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War’s Ground War-like multiplayer mode, Combined Arms.

On today’s Save State, Persia talks about the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War multiplayer reveal and its new maps and modes. Plus, the Xbox Series X and Watch Dogs: Legion both get release dates.

Xbox Game Pass for PC–a subscription offering that gets you tons of games– is about to get more expensive. Microsoft has announced that the introductory price, which is $5 per month, will soon be retired.

This has been the price since Xbox Game Pass for PC launched in beta, which it remains at today. In a blog post, Microsoft said Xbox Game Pass for PC will “become generally available” on September 17, which is the day that the introductory price expires. From the wording here, it sounds like Xbox Game Pass for PC may leave beta on this date, too.

People who have already subscribed at that price will pay the same rate through their next billing cycle, after which they will see the price increase to $10 per month.

Ubisoft has a big show coming up with a second Ubisoft Forward this week, but one game that won’t be part of the event is the long-in-development swashbuckling pirate game Skull & Bones.

In a blog post, creative director Elisabeth Pellen confirmed that Skull & Bones has begun production again “in full swing with a new vision.” Pellen said developer Ubisoft Singapore is “fully committed” to launching the game and supporting it for many years after launch.

Although Skull & Bones won’t be at Ubisoft Forward this week, the developer confirmed it is “working on plans to present Skull & Bones sometime in the future. It will be worth the wait.”
