If you've yet to experience the terror of being chased down by a TIE-Interceptor, well now's your chance, as Star Wars: Squadrons is coming to EA Play - and by extension, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate . Squadrons is due to arrive on EA Play "sometime in March," although EA is yet to announce a precise date. Motive's space combat game released in October last year, delivering excellent dogfights that are particularly spectacular in VR . Along with Squadrons, EA is also putting a couple more sports games on its subscription service: Madden NFL 21 arrives on 2nd March, while NHL 21 lands sometime in April. If that's your thing. It's worth noting Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members can currently only use EA Play on console, as in December Microsoft explained EA Play for Game Pass on PC would be delayed until sometime in 2021 . Hopefully that will get sorted soon, as - I may have mentioned it just once or twice before - Squadrons really does excel in VR. … [Read more...] about Star Wars Squadrons heads to EA Play next month

By now you'll have heard about how PS5 and Xbox Series X stock is like gold dust. In fact, it often feels as if you have a greater chance of winning the lottery than being able to buy PS5 deals . But why? What makes the next-gen PlayStation so difficult to get hold of? While there are plenty of factors at play here, a lot of them boil down to the crapsack of a year that 2020 became. Don't worry - it's not just your bad luck. Supply chains and bottlenecks Instead, there's a tangle of reasons for low Xbox Series X and PS5 stock. Chief among them would be, unsurprisingly, COVID-19.

Xbox Series X has finally fixed a tiny issue that caused an extremely disproportionate amount of frustration among hardcore players. While the Xbox user interface has remained largely consistent over the last few years, it's steadily evolved with new tweaks on the aesthetic side here and menu functionality there. One such change was adding Xbox Assist, a built-in support tool, to the menu that pops up when you access game options on the dashboard.

This resulted in countless frustrated Xbox fans pulling up the menu, pressing RT to instantly select the bottom item, then being greeted by Xbox Assist when they were not in need of any Xbox assistance. As of the latest console update, Reddit users are reporting that Microsoft has moved the Xbox Assist option into its own sub-menu; it's still at the bottom of the list, but you need to … [Read more...] about Xbox Series X update means you’ll accidentally hit Xbox Assist less

PS5 and Xbox Series X stock problems due to the COVID-19 pandemic are being investigated by the Biden administration, reports Reuters . President Joe Biden pledged a 100-day review of supply chains as well as $37 billion yesterday (February 24) to fund legislation that will accelerate manufacturing for chips used in the PS5 and Xbox Series X .

"I’m directing senior officials in my administration to work with industrial leaders to identify solutions to the semiconductor shortfall,” Biden announced. “Congress has authorized a bill but they need $37 billion to make sure that we have this capacity...I’ll push for that as well." Hopefully the improved supply of semiconductor … [Read more...] about PS5 and Xbox Series X component shortage will be investigated by the US government
