We have a PSA for Civilization fans: If you’ve been waiting for the price to drop on Civilization VI‘s newest expansion, Gathering Storm, today’s the day to grab it. While the Gathering Storm expansion, which released in February, is still selling for $40 on Steam and elsewhere, it’s currently on sale for $26 at Fanatical–and we have an exclusive promo code that slashes the price even more. This promo code is only available for new customers to Fanatical.

If you use promo code GAMESPOTCIV6GS at Fanatical, you can get an officially licensed Steam key for Civilization VI: Gathering Storm for only $20, by far its lowest price yet. As a comparison, the first Civ VI expansion, Rise and Fall, still sells for $30 and is discounted to $19.49 at Steam right now–and it released over a year ago. So this is a good chance to grab Gathering Storm for cheap, as it likely won’t drop lower than $20 anywhere for quite a while.

The deal is available now through May 21 at midnight PT / 3 AM ET / 7 AM GMT / 5 PM AET. To claim the 50% off deal, head to Fanatical and add the Gathering Storm expansion to your cart. In checkout, click “Redeem a coupon code” and paste in GAMESPOTCIV6GS. You’ll see the price drop to $20, and you’ll receive your purchased Steam key immediately. Please note this is Aspyr’s version of Gathering Storm for Steam, so you must have a free Steam account to redeem the key.

The Gathering Storm DLC adds eight new civilizations and nine new leaders, along with new world wonders, units, districts, buildings, and improvements. As the name implies, Gathering Storm adds environmental hazards, like volcanic eruptions, blizzards, sandstorms, hurricanes, floods, droughts, and climate change, to wreak havoc on your civilization. Luckily, there are ways to counter nature’s fury, such as building dams to ward off flooding and developing cleaner energy sources. Gathering Storm also introduces the World Congress (through which you can earn a Diplomatic Victory), new late-game technology and civics, and new scenarios like The Black Death and War Machine (WWII).

If, for some reason, you’re reading this article but haven’t yet purchased Civilization VI, it’s worth noting you can currently grab the base game for $15 on Fanatical (about 75% off). Civ VI is already on sale for $16.79, and using sitewide promo code MAY10, you can slash another 10% off the price, dropping it to $15.

That promo code also applies to hundreds of other PC games discounted across Fanatical right now–be sure to check out the huge May Madness sale running all week long.

E3 is the time for video game publishers to make their mark on the industry with their biggest announcements and splashiest trailers, and EA has a particularly full plate this year. Between updates to some of its ongoing games like Apex Legends and the impending release of Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order, it’s going to be a big year.

As in the last few years, EA will eschew the E3 show itself and instead center its efforts on EA Play, a fan-centric event that takes place just before E3. This year it will be on Saturday, June 8 through Sunday, June 9. It will be held at the Hollywood Palladium and feature developer talks, gameplay reveals, and more.

This year, we know EA plans to outline its upcoming plans for Anthem, Apex Legends, and Battlefield V. Each of those games have ongoing live content like new modes, story chapters, or in the case of Apex Legends, details for the upcoming Season 2 Battle Pass. We also know that Respawn’s other big 2019 game, Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order, will get a gameplay reveal at the event. Finally, we’re certain to see the latest on EA’s slate of EA Sports titles, including Madden NFL 20 and FIFA 20.

Read GameSpot’s full coverage of E3 2019 for the latest breaking news, and check out the full E3 conference schedule. Below is a standing list of all of the confirmed EA games we know are slated to make an appearance at the show, so far.

• Anthem
• Apex Legends
• Battlefield V
• FIFA 20
• Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order

Ubisoft has released the first tease for Rainbow Six Siege‘s two new Operators. The gif, which you can see below, is difficult to make out, and that appears to be a deliberate move from the publisher, which captioned the video, “Look carefully… what do you see?”

From what can be gleaned, the two figures appear to be hooded, with one wielding some form of… electricity orb? We’re not entirely sure. Let us know what you see in the comments below.

Ubisoft typically ties its Siege reveals into the game’s esports scene, and with the pro league finals being held in Milan on May 18-19, we hopefully don’t have too long to wait until we hear more about these new Operators and the upcoming Year 4, Season 2.

The most recent Operators, Mozzie and Gridlock, were revealed in February along with a new map named Outback. More recently, Ubisoft introduced reverse friendly fire as an attempt to curb teamkilling in Siege.

Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption 2 parent company Take-Two has stated it has more unannounced games coming before the end of the financial year. The company, which owns publisher Rockstar, confirmed the news in an earnings call; CEO Strauss Zelnick said the company has “titles coming in the fiscal year that have not been announced yet.”

The current fiscal year ends on March 31, 2020, meaning these titles will arrive before then. It should be noted, however, that Take-Two also owns 2K Games, the publisher of games like XCOM and Borderlands 3, and 2K Sports. We therefore shouldn’t get too excited at the prospect of GTA 6 and Red Dead Redemption 3 launching in the next 10 months.

Elsewhere in the call to investors, Take-Two stated GTA V has sold another 10 million copies in the last six months, despite being six years old at this point. Red Dead Redemption 2 sold 1 million in the same time frame.

The company also said a million people continue to play Borderlands 2 every month. That game launched in 2012, with a sequel coming later this year.

Today only, you can save up to 50% off ARRIS Surfboard cable modems on Amazon. It’s the online retailer’s Deal of the Day, and while buying a cable modem on sale isn’t the most thrilling thing in the world, it’s something you should absolutely consider.

That’s because your internet service provider is probably taking advantage of you (shocking, I know.) By default, most cable providers charge a monthly fee of around $9 to lend you a not-very-expensive piece of equipment each month until you die. But if you buy your own cable modem, you can stop paying that fee right now and watch gleefully as your cable bill drops. The modem pays for itself in just a few months, and then you’re just saving money going forward. What’s not to love? Just hurry, because the deal ends at midnight.

After over six months in open beta, Red Dead Online is finally leaving its beta phase and rolling out a huge new update. This week, Red Dead Redemption 2‘s online mode is getting pumped up with new co-op story missions, Free Roam missions that feature new characters from the main game, new Posse Versus Challenges with activities like fishing and shooting, a new hostility system, poker games that seat up to six players, various gameplay improvements, and more.

To celebrate the occasion, Rockstar Games is making Red Dead Online available to all PS4 players, including those who aren’t subscribed to PlayStation Plus, as part of a special bonus period. From now through May 27, anyone who owns Red Dead Redemption 2 on PS4 can dive into its online multiplayer mode. With all the new additions and improvements, there’s no better time to see what Red Dead Online is all about.

If you want to keep playing Red Dead Online past May 27, PlayStation is temporarily lowering the price of PS Plus for Red Dead Redemption 2 owners in the US. The 12-month subscription is being offered for $48 (usually $60), while the three-month plan is available for $21 (usually $25); plus, you’ll receive 10 Gold Bars per month while your subscription lasts. This offer ends June 3 and must be purchased within Red Dead Redemption 2. The subscription will auto-renew at full price unless you cancel. (Psst–if you don’t care about the Gold Bars, you can get a 12-month PS Plus subscription for $40 at MassGenie right now.)

More content and bonuses are planned for Red Dead Online in the coming weeks, including new Free Roam missions, clothing, and PS4 Early Access content, which will release on May 21 in time for players without PS Plus to check it out. Another perk: Anyone who logs into Red Dead Online this week will get a one-time gift of 15 Gold Bars and receive a 15% XP increase on A Land of Opportunities, Free Roam missions and events, Showdown modes, and races. You’ll also find 25% extra cash and gold in chests. Finally, Ultimate Edition owners will also receive $100 in Red Dead Online cash and the Throat Slit emote for free.

Disney has reached a deal with Comcast that will give the company majority control of Hulu for $5.8 billion.

Per Variety, Comcast’s NBCUniversal will keep licensing content to Hulu through 2024, while retaining a 33% stake in the streaming provider. Over the next five years, NBCUniversal has the right to either cancel some of its existing content or offer it “on a nonexclusive basis for a reduced licensing fee.” Disney can buy out NBCUniversal’s remaining 33% share in 2024 for an evaluation price of $27.5 billion.

Bob Iger, Disney’s chairman, and CEO said, “We are now able to completely integrate Hulu into our direct-to-consumer business and leverage the full power of The Walt Disney Company’s brands and creative engines to make the service even more compelling and a greater value for consumers.”
