The next wave of free Xbox Games with Gold titles have been announced. We've taken a look at all the free games Xbox Live Gold members will be able to get their hands on below.
First up is Overcooked. This is a co-op party game where players must team up to prepare a variety of meals for hungry customers. Preparing meals can get very frantic and all sorts of problems can go wrong.
As you play Overcooked for longer, you'll be taken to wackier restaurant locations with even more absurd things happening in the kitchen. Overcooked is frantic, action packed and an excellent game to play with your friends.
Over on the Xbox 360, Stuntman Ignition is available up until October 15. In this game, you get to control a variety of different stunt vehicles as you perform stunts on a movie set.
It's a game that'll put you through the paces and send you on a variety of action-packed challenges. The game certainly has a limited life span, but it's incredibly fun for the first

Epic Games has launched another brand new starter pack for Fortnite. This time, it contains a brand new skin, new back bling, and some V-Bucks.
It’s a great offer for anybody interested in getting more V-Bucks or for those that are interested in purchasing their first skin.
As seen above, the new Ace Skin is themed similarly to the upcoming High Stakes Wild Card skin. It shares the same sci-fi-like bank robbery theme. The same can be said about the back bling, which is essentially a large duffel bag filled with money.
You can purchase the new Ace starter pack on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC, or mobile. The pack costs $5 and it comes with 600 V-Bucks.
When you consider that the cheapest V-Bucks option costs $10 and comes with 1,000 V-Bucks, this bundle is certainly worth the money.

Previously, a small preload file for the Destiny 2 beta was put up online. The preload file was only 400MB in size, however, which lead many people to speculate that a bigger patch was coming closer to the beta start date.
This has proven to be true today as a brand new patch for the Destiny 2 beta preload client has gone live. The new update is 12.6GB in size, making the total file size for the Destiny 2 beta client 13GB.
This information is based on the beta client on the PlayStation 4 - file size may vary slightly on other platforms.
If you've already pre-purchased Destiny 2, you'll now be able to jump into the action. Get the download started because the Destiny 2 beta will continue until July 23rd.

The Ghost Recon Wildlands open beta has started - players can already sign into Uplay, Steam, Xbox Live or PSN to install the open beta.
The beta should now be live for all users in regions across the world. Currently, the beta is live on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Steam. Currently, the beta download size is sitting at roughly 24GB for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. However, if you installed the previous PC beta you'll only need to download 19GB worth of data.
Either way, you may want to start downloading now - this will be your last chance to give Ghost Recon Wildlands a try for free before the game is officially released. The open beta will remain open until Monday the 27th, so you've still got lots of time to get the game download and get playing.
This time round, the open beta for Wildlands will have a total of two regions for exploring, as opposed to the full game's 21 different regions. The first region is Itacua, which was first seen in the previous beta period.

Heads up everyone, Super Mario is gearing up to be a front-runner for 2016 mobile game character of the year.
While Super Mario has never left the comfort of Nintendo's consoles in the past, Mario's maker has finally wised up and have now prepared a Super Mario mobile game. The game is called Super Mario Run and we've known about it for a while now. However, today Nintendo finally revealed gameplay for Super Mario Run and we're actually quite impressed.
As long as Nintendo sticks to their previous words, Super Mario Run will be free to download, with extra content and levels which can be unlocked with a one-time purchase. Nintendo won't be using any of the terrible in-app purchase practices seen in other popular mobile games such as Clash of Clans or Clash Royale.
The game will feature the same gameplay we've learned to love from the Super Mario world - side scrolling fast paced action, plenty of levels and boss fights with Bowser. However, instead of the traditional
