Halo Infinite supports multiplayer cross-play and cross-progression, Microsoft has announced.
It means if you play on PC, you can play with those on Xbox One and Xbox Series X and S - and vice versa.
Your multiplayer customisation and progress follows you across all platforms.
"We know many of you play across more than just your PC, including on Xbox and mobile," Matt Booty, Head of Xbox Game Studios, said in a post on Xbox Wire.

As with every LEGO game, LEGO Star Wars Force Awakens is full of hidden Red Bricks that you can use to unlock cheats - some practical, some silly - but all worth taking the time to hunt down and redeem.
There is one in every mission in the game, as well as a handful that are available to use from the get-go. Remember to unlock these cheats, you have to hold the character select, go to the Extras icon, and purchase them with studs in the menu.

Beautiful, badass and audacious, Persona 5 is going to steal your heart. Real talk: if you've played Persona, if you've enjoyed JRPGs, if you even have a passing interest in Japanese media, there's absolutely no reason to read this frankly ponderous review. Persona 5 is everything you've wanted: style and substance distilled into an experience worth waging cultural wars for.
If you don't like JRPGs, well, I can't help you there.

Mega Battle Challenge is a timed research quest that is part of the Mega Battle event and the celebration around the introduction of Mega Evolutions into Pokémon Go.
This challenge will see you battling in raids and performing a Mega Evolution, probably on Mega Beedrill, around a number of other Pokémon battle themed tasks. Since this research quest is only available for a limited amount of time, it's a good idea to know everything about Mega Evolution and the Mega Battle event to ensure that you can complete 'Mega Battle Challenge' before it vanishes.

Having been introduced on consoles last month, bots are now making their debut on PUBG's PC test servers as part of update 7.2, and I think it's fair to say some players aren't very happy about it. As explained by PUBG Corp, bots are being introduced in public matchmaking as a way to provide new players with easier targets and tackle the widening skill gap. Some have speculated, however, that it could also be a way to bulk up lobbies and reduce queue times due to declining player numbers.

Shallow simulation and lingering bugs make Rollercoaster Tycoon World a poor alternative to Planet Coaster. My experience playing Rollercoaster Tycoon World began with confusion. Upon launching, it presented me with an entirely black screen, and remained that way for the duration of my mid-afternoon coffee-break. As black screens go it's a very good one, the kind of fathomless void you'd expect Lovecraftian horrors to float around in. In fact, I briefly wondered if this was Rollercoaster Tycoon World's new, avant-garde direction, a theme-park sim set in a dimension where the rides drive you insane.
