Square Enix has announced that you’ll be able to replay The Quiet Man–a game about a protagonist who’s deaf–on a second playthrough with sound. The choice to do so is optional, according to Gematsu, but Square Enix’s decision to add the feature is slightly puzzling, as it appears to undermine the whole point of the game.

On The Quiet Man’s Steam page, Square Enix writes you “play as a deaf character, Dane, and experience the world as the character does–with very little distinct audio and no subtitles: it’s up to you to make up your own interpretation of the story as your search for the masked man unfolds.” The developer also adds that one of the game’s key features is its soundless world. Experiencing what it’s like for someone who’s deaf to interact with the world seems to be the selling point of The Quiet Man, so it’s a little odd that there’s an option to replay the game with sound.

The Quiet Man made waves at E3 2018 with a reveal trailer that blended together live action cutscenes and animated gameplay. Despite the excitement, Square Enix didn’t announce any further details about the game until early October, when a gameplay trailer revealed The Quiet Man’s release date was a month away.

The gameplay trailer showcases Dane moving through a noiseless Manhattan, using his quick reaction time to respond to threats. Dane appears to have above-average strength, easily flipping around and delivering devastating beat downs on the enemies he encounters. The trailer also reveals the hooded man who serves as the game’s primary antagonist. This mysterious villain kidnaps a songstress that Dane seems smitten with and desperately wants to save.

The Quiet Man launches on November 1 for PS4 and PC, and will release as a digital-only title. Square Enix advertised the game as an “immersive story-driven cinematic action experience” that can be completed in one sitting.

EA has announced that four of the voice actors from Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series will be reprising their roles in Battlefront 2. Each of the four Hero characters will be rolling out separately over the next several months, starting this October.

In a blog post on Battlefront 2’s website, EA DICE editorial writer Daniel Steinholtz revealed Matthew Wood, James Arnold Taylor, Corey Burton, and Matt Lanter will return to voice General Grievous, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Count Dooku, and Anakin Skywalker respectfully. Grievous comes to Battlefront 2 on October 30, while the remaining three Hero characters don’t have exact release dates. As of right now, Obi-Wan is scheduled for November 2018, Dooku for January 2019, and Anakin for February 2019.

EA recently revealed its process for how new Star Wars Hero characters are chosen for Battlefront 2. For the developer, every “hero must counter a villain, and vice versa” so after deciding to add Obi-Wan and Anakin to the game, Grievous and Dooku–villains that share a “natural rivalry” with the two Jedi–were also chosen.

Grievous, Obi-Wan, Dooku, and Anakin are part of a Clone Wars DLC road map scheduled for Battlefront 2. The updates started in August, first focusing on adding a wider variety of cosmetic appearances for the Republic Army, such as Yoda’s 41st Elite Corps and Windu’s 91st Mobile Reconnaissance Corps. A Prequel Era playlist was also added to the game, which limits multiplayer matches to Galactic Assault on Clone Wars era maps. More multiplayer locations, like Geonosis, are scheduled for future updates.

Star Wars: Battlefront 2 is available on Xbox One, PS4, and PC. The Clone Wars animated series, once believed to be cancelled for good, is returning with a seventh season that sees Anakin and Obi-Wan once again teaming up with Ahsoka Tano to aid in the Siege of Mandalore.

The annual Haunted Hallows has returned to Rocket League. This limited-time Halloween-themed event adds a new currency to Psyonix’s game that allows you to buy special cosmetic items for your battle cars.

During Haunted Hallows, playing in and completing online matches allows you to earn Candy Corn currency. Candy Corn can be redeemed for Halloween-themed battle car decals, toppers, wheels, and other cosmetic items. One of the limited items, called a Golden Pumpkin, unlocks one random battle car customization from the Nitro, Turbo, or Player’s Choice crates.

Haunted Hallows continues until November 5 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST / 10:00 PM BST. Even if you can no longer earn Candy Corn once the event ends, you’ll still be able to spend any leftovers you might have for a limited time. You’ll have until November 8 at 2:00 PM PST / 5:00 PM EST / 10:00 PM BST to spend your leftover Candy Corn before they’re gone for good.

We think Rocket League is superb. In our Rocket League review, Miguel Concepcion gave the game a 9/10, writing, “The joy of Rocket League rests on the countless plans that are conceived and discarded every other second in any given match. Trying to predict where and how the ball will bounce next is a game within the game. Despite the use of cars, Rocket League emulates the emotional surges typical of The Beautiful Game, such as the rush of an unexpected fast break or a well-timed header into a goal. With Rocket League, the promising concept of combining two wonderful things–cars and soccer–is equally magnificent in execution.”

Rocket League is available on Xbox One, PS4, PC, and Nintendo Switch. The game supports cross-play between Xbox One, PC, and Switch.

Thronebreaker’s compelling characters accent a strong re-imagining of Gwent and a gripping single-player story.

Blackout’s Black Market

Call of Duty’s Black Market, an in-game shop for cosmetic items, has returned in Black Ops 4, and there are already dozens of unlockables to earn. Many of these items are for Blackout, Black Ops 4’s battle royale mode, and you’ll earn them by simply playing the game.

In Black Market, the Contraband Stream tracks your progression towards each new item. The available items are swapped out for new ones with each seasonal change, which takes place approximately every two months. Operation First Strike, the first collection of items, is going on right now, and it includes new Blackout calling cards, emotes, signature weapons, Specialist skins, and tags.

The entire assortment of cosmetics included in Operation First Strike are listed in the following gallery. Click through to see everything you can earn.

The Black Market will also experience limited-time events, which offer opportunities for unlocking special cosmetic items. The first event starts on October 20 for PS4 and on October 27 for Xbox One and PC. It will allow you to earn Halloween-themed gear and skins. In November, the Black Market will update to support real-money purchases.

We think Black Ops 4 is great. In our Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 review, GameSpot reviews editor Kallie Plagge gave the game an 8/10, writing, “Black Ops 4 isn’t short on content, and its three main modes are substantial. Multiplayer introduces more tactical mechanics without forcing you into them, and it largely strikes a good balance. Zombies has multiple deep, secret-filled maps to explore, though its returning characters don’t hold up and prove distracting. Finally, Blackout pushes Call of Duty in an entirely new direction, making use of aspects from both multiplayer and Zombies for a take on the battle royale genre that stands on its own. Sure, there isn’t a traditional single-player campaign, but with the depth and breadth of what is there, Black Ops 4 doesn’t need it.”

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is available for Xbox One, PS4, and PC.

Destiny 2 players eager to get their hands on some new Exotic items are (possibly) in luck. Xur, the mysterious merchant and servant of the Nine, has popped up once again in Bungie’s shooter with a refreshed lineup of Exotic items for sale, and he’s got something that may be of use for Titans, Warlocks, and Hunters. Here’s what he’s selling from now until the next weekly reset on Tuesday, October 23, as well as where to find him.

Xur is apparently a fan of moons of Jupiter; he was recently found on Io, and that’s again where he’s located for this week. Bungie continues to reuse his standard spot for each map, meaning he can be found in Giant’s Scar. Spawn in at that landing zone and make your way forward through the building in front of you, and then follow the path to the left. Just up on a hill, you’ll find a small cave he’s hanging out in.

Festival of the Lost and Iron Banner may be underway, but there’s nothing unusual about Xur’s lineup of items. He has a piece of Exotic armor for each class, as well as one weapon: Crimson, the hand cannon. This is an excellent gun, firing a three-round burst and featuring the Cruel Remedy perk, which heals you when you get a kill and refills the magazine when you get a precision kill.

On the armor side, Hunters can pick up The Dragon’s Shadow chest armor, which reloads your guns and provides a speed and handling buff after a dodge. Warlocks get the Crown of Tempests helmet, which speeds up arc ability recovery when you get arc ability kills. And Titans can get the Ashen Wake gauntlets, which improve fusion grenades by letting you throw them faster and causing them to explode on impact.

The full lineup and prices are as follows:

Xur Exotic Items (October 19-23)

• Crimson (Exotic hand cannon) — 29 Legendary Shards
• The Dragon’s Shadow (Exotic Hunter chest armor) — 23 Legendary Shards
• Crown of Tempests (Exotic Warlock helmet) — 23 Legendary Shards
• Ashen Wake (Exotic Titan gauntlets) — 23 Legendary Shards

Also from Xur, you can pick up a Five of Swords challenge card for adding modifiers to Nightfall strikes (which is needed to do the weekly Powerful gear challenge to score over 100,000 in the Nightfall). Additionally, he has the Fated Engram, which is pricey at 97 Legendary Shards but is guaranteed to decrypt into a Year One Exotic you don’t already have.

As noted above, Xur’s lineup may not be thrilling (though Crimson genuinely is great), but there’s plenty else happening in the game. You can get curated Iron Banner rewards from taking part in the Crucible mode, and we’re still in the first week of the three-week-long Halloween event, Festival of the Lost. This features a new activity called the Haunted Forest that’s fun and offers a path to a 600 Power level auto rifle called Horror Story–just be careful when going for the chest at the end.

Hello Call of Duty fans! This year we’re trying something new: because Call of Duty: Black Ops 4’s modes are so different, we’re reviewing them separately, followed by our overall review and score. You can read more about the review plan here. This part covers the entirety of Black Ops 4 – be sure to check out the individual reviews next.
