Activision have said that they have a new system for releasing content in Destiny 2
Prepare yourselves Guardians. A new tweet from @TheLegendBlue on Twitter today states that Activision have a new system for releasing content in Destiny 2 to keep the universe more alive throughout the game. This is huge for Destiny players due to the game’s history of lacking enough content to keep things consistently fresh and interesting. Let’s hope Bungie and Activision deliver for Destiny 2. https://twitter.com/TheLegendBlue/status/794285103841157120
The Witcher 3 Eredin statue announced with Prime 1 Studio
Today a new character statue from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has been announced – Eredin, the leader of the Wild Hunt. See below for the description of the impressive model. The name of the King of the Wild Hunt, the identity of the lord of nightmares, the being behind the frightful mask, this long remained unknown. Over time, however, scraps of information gradually coalesced into a full likeness of our foe – but did nothing to detract from the terror he inspired. The Wild Hunt was in truth an elite cavalry brigade from the world of the Aen Elle, the Alder Folk, and was commanded by their ambitious and ruthless king, Eredin Breacc Glas. He would travel via secret paths through the cold emptiness between his world and ours to capture victims and take them back to his homeland as slaves. His current Hunt was Cirilla whose power he wanted to harness for his own uses. But his only obstacle in his path is Geralt of Rivia. The Eredin 24-inch statue is accompanied with his hound. You can pre-order Eredin now for a mere $799. Better save up those crowns. Pre-order website

Phil Spencer Comments On Graphic Development
In an interview with Game Informer Australia with the head of Xbox, Phil Spencer was asked whether he feels the change from HD to 4K and HDR is, literally and figuratively, a game changer. He explains that he feels the switch from SD to HD resolutions was much more noticeable than the current switch from 4K to HDR. Says Spencer, “I’ve been around Xbox since the original Xbox and I remember the shift from SD to HD. I remember seeing Gears of War 1, which for us was the first game that I saw on pre-release 360 hardware, and I went, ‘Wow, that just looks like something new.’” He goes on to say that the transition from Xbox 360 to Xbox One is visible, but not as much so as when we went from 2D to 3D, or standard definition to high definition. What does this mean for the future of gaming and media? Where can we go from the incredible graphics capabilities we have now? Let us know what you think in the comments!

Yesterday Microsoft’s Mike Ybarra tweeted that an update to the Xbox One S has added BD-R and BD-RE support for the Blu-ray player app on the Xbox One S. BD-R and BD-RE may sound familiar; they are writable and re-writable Blu-ray discs that can be written or re-written on, just like DVDs and CDs had. There is no word (yet?) on if this update will come to the original Xbox One.
