Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been updated, bringing the game to version 1.3.0. This is the first summer update for the game.

Mortal Kombat 11

Mortal Kombat 11, one of the games previously announced as a featured title for the Evo Online fighting tournament, will no longer be involved. Developer NetherRealm Studios confirmed just a short while ago that it has decided to pull its game from the upcoming event.

But after looking at the feedback Crysis Remastered has received in light of those leaks, the team is pushing back the July 23 release date – which was technically never announced.
