Google Stadia Pro Adds Six New Games Next Month, Including Hitman

Google has announced a new round of games joining its Stadia Pro subscription service in September, including Hitman, Metro: Last Light Redux, and more.

There are six games being added to the service in total. Starting on September 1, you can download Embr, Gunsport, Hello Neighbor, Hitman, Metro: Last Light Redux, and Super Bomberman R Online with an active Stadia Pro subscription. Each game is also available to purchase individually.

While a handful of games are joining Stadia Pro, there are a few that are leaving the service. On August 31, Get Packed, Grid, and Kona will no longer be free to download. If you download these games before the end of the month, you can keep them for as long as you’re a Stadia Pro subscriber. Of course, each title can be purchased individually after they leave the vault.

Snag A Great 4K Laptop On Sale For A Limited Time

If you’re looking for a laptop that can handle your workday, entertainment, and gaming, then Newegg has a great deal on a laptop this week. The Asus ZenBook 15 ultra-slim laptop is $1,320–down from $1,500–with promo code 93XPR67. Boasting a 4K 15.6-inch display, the ZenBook 15 is great for design work and entertainment. It won’t be able to max out your gaming to 4K resolutions, but it’ll still work well with DLSS and lower resolutions. This deal is valid until August 31 and comes with free shipping. The laptop will arrive next week or as early as tomorrow if you increase your shipping speed.

In addition to the ultra-slim profile, the ZenBook sports a touchscreen trackpad that you can use to launch apps and multitask. The Asus ZenBook 15 also features some pretty mighty specs that make it capable of performing heavy production tasks, such as video and photo editing. It boasts an i7-10510U processor, a GTX 1650 graphics card, and 16GB of RAM as well as a 1TB PCIe SSD.

Of course, these specs aren’t strong enough to take full advantage of that 4K display while gaming. Thankfully, it’s more than capable of performing well at lower resolutions or when a game supports DLSS, which makes lower resolutions look like higher resolutions–it’s a pretty impressive technology, though it’s worth noting that it won’t look as good as a true 4K image should. DLSS is used to improve your game’s performance, so you still have a nice-looking image while also keeping that higher frame rate.

Warframe “Heart Of Deimos” Expansion Now Available

The third open-world expansion for Warframe has launched, offering a new Warframe, a brand-new open-world area with loads to do, new transportation options, and more. It’s available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One, with a Switch version coming later this week.

The centerpiece of the new expansion is the open-world area, the Cambion Drift. You can collect new resources like flora and mining resources, and interact with the beings there, the Entrati. Those will be your mission-givers as they give you tasks to help with their research. Completing progress with the Enrati will unlock the Helminth Segment for your Orbiter, which will unlock new Warframe customization options. You can also ride on Velicopods, native insectoid creatures.

The expansion also includes a new broken Warframe, Xaku. It was designed by the game community, including its suite of abilities that focus around the Void. You’ll get a 25% chance of evading projectiles, stealing enemy firepower, and buffing your weapons. You can purchase the Xaku collection in the Market.
