A major new update for Warcraft 3 has rolled out for testing. Now old enough to get a provisional driving license, the 16-year-old RTS now boasts 24-player servers and—finally—native widescreen support. And there's more to come, it seems. "Warcraft III's PTR is back and ready for your scrutiny," writes developer Peter Stilwell.

PUBG's Savage map just began its second round of player testing on experimental servers, and if you aren't planning on participating yourself, patch notes detail some of the changes that have occurred since the 4x4km map was first tested two weeks ago. Notably, red zones have been decreased in size, and bombardment won't last as long, which may be a relief to players who aren't just caught in them but have to listen to them (when we first tried out the map, I found it to be almost constantl

A tornado tore through North Carolina yesterday, leading to a state of emergency, widespread power outages, and plenty of property damage to the town Greensboro.

Mondays are rubbish, I hear you. But sales are good, aren't they? With the latter in mind, Fanatical's three-day Super 6 Sale kicks off today—showcasing six deals per day, and discounting over 500 Steam games from now through Wednesday. Which isn't a bad way to bridge the blues till hump day.  Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is my favourite of today's offerings, which is on sale for £18.39/your local equivalent with a 22 percent discount.
