E3 2019 -- Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order Box Art Revealed Before EA Play
Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order is going to be the biggest part of EA Play--the fan-focused event just before E3 2019. Ahead of that showcase for the upcoming game on Saturday, EA has released two key pieces of artwork, showing off the standard and deluxe box covers.
The standard cover is a character medley in the identifiable Star Wars style, showing off protagonist Cal Kestis flanked by allies and enemies, along with TIE Fighters and AT walkers. The deluxe cover takes a more simplistic approach, with a close-up of Cal's face draped in shadow. Both covers notably have a light-dark motif, splitting the color scheme into two parts.
Despite what the box art suggests, Jedi Fallen Order will not be rated E for Everyone by the ESRB. EA has clarified that this was only meant as a placeholder; an ESRB rating is still to come, but it seems safe to assume it will be given either a Mature or, more likely, Teen rating.
Jedi Fallen Order focuses on a Padawan who escaped the Jedi purge that occurred when the Emperor instructed his troopers to execute Order 66. Since it takes place in the dark times between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, Cal spends his time hiding from the Empire's agents, who have been deployed to watch for and mop up any remaining Jedi. Jedi Fallen Order releases on November 15 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
The game from Respawn is headlining the EA Play event, and will be the first to take the stage on Saturday, June 8 at 9:30 AM PT / 12:30 PM ET / 5:30 PM BST / 2:30 AM AET (June 9). EA isn't giving a formal press conference for E3 this year, but will be hosting a series of streams focused on its various games all Saturday morning. Others include Apex Legends, Battlefield 5, FIFA 20, Madden NFL 20, and The Sims 4.
This is a great opportunity to save hundreds of dollars on your pass to XRDC, the premier industry event for AR/VR/MR developers and innovators. This year the event will serve up an invigorating array of speakers and exhibitors in a beautiful new waterfront venue: the Fort Mason Festival Pavilion in San Francisco.
The whole event is being revamped to be more interactive and engaging, and this year there’s an all-new XRDC pass for sale, the Startup Pass, which is nearly half the price of the regular pass and specifically designed to give smaller teams and trailblazing startups a clear path to success at XRDC!
So make sure to look over XRDC passes and prices and register before tomorrow’s deadline to get the best price on your ticket to the big event.
A number of exciting sessions have already been announced, including DeepMotion chief Kevin He’s intriguing Entertainment track talk on “Using AI to Create Interactive Digital Actors,” in which he’ll discuss the challenges of (and science behind) building an interactive character authoring tool — as well as how companies can integrate intelligent character simulation into their own games and experiences.
Plus, Packet39 cofounder Shachar Weis will be there to how you how VR is improving children’s healthcare in his XRDC Healthcare track talk on “MRI Simulator: Using Biofeedback Loops to Reduce Anxiety in Children.”
You’ll see how this simulator was designed by combining elements from game design, immersive technologies and biofeedback to help patients train before the scan, and remain calm and still during, improving image quality and shortening the scan duration.
And in their Enterprise track talk on “Building Virtual Reality for Public Safety”, The National Institute of Standards and Technology’s Sarah Hughes and Jack Lewis will share lessons learned in designing VR experiences to improve public safety, developing VR environments with the first responder community, trials and tribulations from 500+ demos, and more. Expect to walk away understanding what worked well — and what failed miserably!

Ghostbusters Ecto-1 Car Pack And More Coming To Rocket League
Coming to Rocket League this summer is a 9-week-long event named Radical Summer and it’s celebrating the season ’80s style.
That’s right, if you’ve had your fill of ’80s nostalgia you should look away now because Psyonix will be pumping its motorised soccer game full of the stuff starting from 10th June. Celebrating iconic movies, TV and ‘culture’ from the decade of big hair and shoulder pads, players will be able to earn ‘Cassettes’ (google it, kids) through online matches which you can cash in for a bunch of neon ’80s swag for your ride.
Most excitingly of all, Ecto-1 – trusty ride of the Peter, Ray, Egon and Winston themselves – is making its long-awaited debut. We’ve already got the DeLorean from Back to the Future and K.I.T.T from Knight Rider will also be joining them, along with gear from ET, The Goonies, Karate Kid and more.
The event is split into three parts, with the limited-time game modes and content outlined in the official blurb below:
’80s Blockbusters –June 10to July 1
– The Blockbusters celebration kicks off Radical Summer with the launch of the Ghostbusters Ecto-1 Car Pack on June 10. The pack will include the GhostbustersEcto-1 Battle-Car, Ecto-1 Wheels, Proton Pack Boost, Slimer Topper, Ghostbusters Player Banner, Ghostbusters Avatar Border, and the Stay Puft Goal Explosion for $1.99 (or regional equivalent).
– The first limited-time game mode for Radical Summer is Ghost Hunt. In this spooky 3v3 mode players must fire a proton stream to capture the ball and carry it to the opposing team’s Containment Zone to score a goal.
– Additional ‘80s franchises featured in the Blockbusters phase — as in-game items in the Radical Summer Event Store — are Back to the Future, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, The Goonies and Karate Kid. Additional details on the landing page.
’80s Culture –July 1to July 22
– The action-packed Spike Rush Game Mode will start the Radical Summer Culture celebration on July 1. Spike Rush is a 3v3 mode where each player has the Spike power-up from Rumble Mode that can be activated to carry the ball up field.
– New in-game items highlighting the iconic culture of the ‘80s will be available in Radical Summer’s Event Store.
’80s Television –July 22to August 12
–The Knight Rider Car Pack kicks off the last celebration of Radical Summer dedicated to television. The pack will feature K.I.T.T., the high-speed, talking futuristic car outfitted with high-tech gadgets and personality of its own from the hit ‘80s show, alongside Knight Rider themed items. More information will be revealed later.
– Beach Ball Game Mode is the final limited-time game mode in Radical Summer. It is a 2v2 mode inspired by beach volleyball with a larger ball, low ball gravity and Curveball mutator activated.
– Additional ‘80s franchises featured in the Television phase as in-game items in the Radical Summer Event Store are DreamWorks Voltron Legendary Defender and WWE. Additional info to follow later this summer.
Fans have been calling for the addition of Ecto-1 ever since the game released and we’re going to find it very hard to resist this particular piece of DLC. Time to get bustin’.
Had enough of all this regurgitated ’80s nostalgia? Still going to get Ecto-1 and KITT despite yourself? Let us know below.
Solomon’s Key Joins Hamster’s Arcade Archives Series On The Nintendo Switch
Hamster is adding Tecmo’s 1986 release Solomon’s Key to its Arcade Archives line on the Nintendo Switch. The title supports 1-2 players and will set you back $7.99 / €6.99 / £6.29.
From June 6th, 2019, Arcade Archives Solomon’s Key will be available digitally for Arcade Archives, the downloadable series by HAMSTER for Nintendo Switch
If you haven’t experienced this arcade classic before, it’s described as an action game where you “make full use of the ‘magic’ of the main character Dana” to acquire items and get the book known as Solomon’s Key.
Like existing releases in Hamster’s series, this one will allow you to alter various settings such as the difficulty and you can even “reproduce the atmosphere” of the original arcade display. Other modern features allow you to compete against online high scores from around the world.
If you are interested, but don’t necessarily feel like forking out for another retro release, you can always consider the NES version of Solomon’s Key, which is currently available on the Nintendo Switch Online service.
Kerbal Space Program: Breaking Ground Expansion is the second expansion for the PC version of the critically acclaimed space flight simulator, Kerbal Space Program. This feature-rich expansion is focused on increasing the objective possibilities once celestial bodies have been reached by adding more interesting scientific endeavors and expanding the toolset.
