Netflix continues to sign top talent to create new shows and movies for its platform. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, having left England and relocated to California, have reached a deal with the streaming network to create all types of content for the platform.

Through a new production company, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will make documentaries, docu-series, feature films, scripted shows, and programming for children, according to The New York Times, which broke the news.

Markle played a major character on the legal drama Suits, but the report said she has no plans to start acting again. However, she and her husband may appear in some of the documentary shows they are producing for Netflix.

PlayStation 4 users can now grab some extra goodies for Call of Duty: Warzone, but only for a limited time. The “Warzone Combat Pack” is now available for PS Plus users on PS4.

The bundle, which is available all month, includes a series of cosmetic items like the Lock and Stock skin, the Drill Bit weapon blueprint, and the box cutter tactical knife. The bundle also comes with a Price Check weapon charm and a token for double XP, among other things.

You can see the Combat Pack in action in the video below, while we’ve collected some images of the items in an image gallery further down the page. Of note, the video displays some items that we did not come across in our own experience–for example, we found the Yellow Belly handgun blueprint instead of the Drill Bit, so your experience may vary.

Welcome to Elk, a narrative-heavy adventure game with some intriguing twists, has announced a release date. The game will be available on Steam and Xbox One on September 17, letting players experience Elk Island and all the stories it holds.

The announcement trailer, below, shows how the game mixes story-telling with puzzles and mini-games, and also introduces one of the game’s most interesting elements–many of the events in it are based on real events, and the game features footage of people telling their stories.

These events are often horrible moments within people’s lives, and the trailer suggests that the game will switch tones throughout.

GameSpot previously covered Welcome to Elk in the article 6 Upcoming Narrative Games To Get Excited About. The brief playable demo we played raised a lot of questions: “Is the island limbo? What’s the connection between the real-world stories and the ones told in game? The Welcome to Elk demo was all of 10 minutes long, but I am already surprisingly invested in exploring this island.”

If you want to experience Welcome to Elk before release, you can play the recently released demo, Welcome to Elk: The First Stories, on Steam.

On today’s Save State, Persia talks about Microsoft acknowledging the wait for an Xbox Series X release date and price, Destiny 2: Beyond Light’s new subclass customization, and Big Yeetus coming to Fall Guys.

Marvel’s Avengers will launch for everyone on September 4, but many players have already had a chance to experience the game thanks to its beta program, culminating in an open weekend beta in late August. As it turns out, this was a big success–the biggest in the history of the PS4, in fact.

Square Enix has announced that the Marvel’s Avengers beta was the biggest ever on PS4. Or, more specifically, it was the “most downloaded,” meaning that a lot of people installed it onto their system.

While the tweet does not provide numbers, Gamesradar estimates a figure close to 5 million people across PS4, Xbox One, and PC by extrapolating play data. The actual figures remain unknown–especially since there would be some who installed the beta and did not get a chance to play it, and this likely combines players across the earlier access beta and the open beta.

Amazon has taken down two job listings for intelligence analysts that generated controversy over their anti-union/labor organizing language. The positions were charged with gathering information on threats to Amazon and reporting that data. One of the alleged threats these positions were meant to monitor was “labor organizing.”

These analysts were also going to be set to monitor “sensitive topics that are highly confidential, including labor organizing threats against the company,” “funding and activities connected to corporate campaigns (internal and external) against Amazon,” as well as briefings on “dynamic situations” including protests, geopolitical crises and other topics “sensitive to human resources and employee relations,” as reported by CNBC.

We all know Avatar: The Last Airbender’s opening credits. The four elements–air, earth, fire, and water–come together to retain the balance between their respective kingdoms before the Fire Nation attacks. It’s an iconic intro, one that has been recreated multiple times over. As cliche as it might seem to use Pokemon to replace the elemental benders of the story, an animator took the obvious and made it adorable in this recreation.

An animator named Kay took the Avatar intro and smashed four Pokemon in the place of the benders. This premise had been something Kay thought about for over 10 years and was “a long time coming.” In the delightful recreation, the four elements are replaced by Charmander, Pidgey, Sandshrew, and Squirtle. What we get is a fluid, if short, animation showcasing the devastating power of these four pre-evolutions. Check it out below.

Earlier this year, Netflix gained the streaming rights to the Avatar franchise. You can stream both The Last Airbender and its sequel series, The Legend of Korra, on the streaming platform right now. A live-action adaptation that was announced by Netflix back in September 2018 has stalled after the show’s creators, Bryan Konietzko and Michael Dante DiMartino, quit the production due to creative differences.
