No, that’s not a typo. Welcome to the Weekly Warp-Up, your weekly wrap-up of the biggest and the best articles posted at Warp Zoned this week…
The Black Friday countdown has begun and I hope you have your wish list ready. If not, don’t forget to check out what GameStop will have on sale on the big day… you just might snag a few deals on this Fall’s biggest games.
And speaking of this Fall’s biggest games, EA is apparently already working on a sequel to Star Wars: Battlefront. The company’s CFO spoke at a technology conference earlier this week and confirmed that Star Wars: Battlefront 2 is officially in the works.
Also officially in the works this week is a biographical film about the life of Tetris creator Alexey Pajitnov. And if we believe Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa (he’s Shang Tsung to everyone over the age of 30), filming on Mortal Kombat: Legacy 3 has already finished.
Finally, I suggest you read our review of Knight Squad, because it is one of the best party games on the Xbox One.
