People Can Fly has always intended for Outriders to evolve as it ages just like Diablo 3 and Destiny 2, and the game will receive post-launch support comparable to the success it has already received. Outriders launched to significant demand that overwhelmed its servers, suggesting the game is more popular than People Can Fly may have believed going in. RELATED: Outriders: Best Skills For Each Class People Can Fly creative director Bartosz Kmita said Outriders won’t follow the games as a service style of monetization, but that there are several options currently on the table for post-launch content....

At least 1,300 prisoners escaped and just 110 voluntarily chose to stay, the non-violent Congolese citizen movement La Lucha told Newsweek. It comes just one day after 200 inmates fled from a prison in the Edo state of Nigeria. Journalist Martial Papy Mukeba specified that 1,337 of all 1,447 prison detainees escaped from the DRC jailhouse. He said that armed Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) and Mai-Mai rebel groups were among those who fled....

The CDC said that between December 21 and December 27, an average of 334 children under the age of 17 had to be admitted to hospitals each day. This is the highest peak since September. During the same December period, about 9,400 people of all ages were hospitalized with the virus per day, meaning that despite the increase in kids’ hospitalizations, children still made up less than 4 percent of the total number of people hospitalized....

This represents an average of 13,486 children injured each year by these non-lethal weapons. The report—from researchers at the Center for Injury Research and Policy at the Nationwide Children’s Hospital—covers a wide swath of injuries, from less-severe bruises to fractures and eyeball ruptures. Despite the significant number of overall cases, rates of childhood injury from non-powder firearms fell by 55 percent over the 26-year period. Non-powder firearms are often sold as recreational weapons....

A defibrillator used to resuscitate a patient in one of the rooms in the hospital had a cable connected to it which short-circuited. The cable then set alight a junction box which the defibrillator, a mobile phone charger and another device were plugged into, the public prosecutor’s office said in a statement late Tuesday. The fire spread quickly through the hospital in the northwestern town of Tetovo due to the presence of stored oxygen for the patients....

Guardiola avoids Alexis Sanchez question Arsenal fans have been stirred by suggestions Marc Overmars is top of that list. The north London side may be more intent on appointing from within, but the prospect of hiring a club legend who has experience in the role at Ajax may seem worth exploring. Overmars himself responded to the speculation, and although he did not rule a future move out, he is not taking the links seriously....

PSP on the Outside Sony’s PSP-2000 model was the most powerful handheld game console when it launched, and thanks to its redesign, it was lighter and smaller in size, leading Sony to market it in many countries as the “PSP Slim & Lite.” It was also the nicest looking, with a sleek, rounded industrial design aesthetic. The button configuration matched that of its big brother, the PlayStation 3, except the PSP only had one shoulder button on each side and had only a single analog nub instead of the PS3’s dual sticks....

Given the nature of the bug, most Overwatch players will likely understand why a delay was the best option to take. According to Blizzard, a bug was effecting players Skill Rating values in dramatic fashion. Players were being matchmade into games that were well off where their SR should have placed them. Overwatch tech support noted that the variance in SR from match to match would be considered “severe.”...

At its core, the primary driving force behind Overwatch 2 is a long-spanning battle between the human race and highly intelligent robots referred to as Omnics. This part of Overwatch 2’s narrative has long been represented by playable heroes, with some of the most beloved characters in the franchise being Omnics themselves. While there are other robotic and intelligent heroes like Orissa and Echo, these heroes are human-made in order to combat human forces, and so do not fall under the Omnic label....

Among the action vampire titles, many players immediately think of Castlevania. But there’s another series that has lain dormant for many years that once commanded huge attention: BloodRayne. Following a female half-vampire named Rayne as she battles Nazis and uncovers ancient artifacts, the games held a Lovecraft meets Indiana Jones feel. Now, both original BloodRayne titles are getting a re-release, and many improvements have been made to the once smash-hit titles....

Fox Sports’ Ken Rosenthal reports the Baltimore Orioles are planning to activate Manny Machado (knee) on Tuesday. However, the Orioles’ game against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday might be threatened by inclement weather. Still, it's a welcome sign for fantasy owners with Machado, who returns just seven months removed from major knee surgery. Machado showed no ill effects on his rehab stint. He went 8-for-13 with four doubles and a triple at Class A Frederick....

The bulk of the suit concerned the league's lack of action until 2011, when it banned checks to the head. Though the league started its concussion program in 1997, the 10 plaintiffs say that was A) too late and B) didn't produce change quickly enough. Is the NHL doing enough now? Gigantic strides have been made, and they have to continue, but it's a valid question without an easy answer....

Azteca losing intimidation factor “Nestor Araujo, Hirving Lozano, Orbelin Pineda and Jesus Molina, the four could play, for example, in Spain without a doubt in the teams from the middle of the table going up and indisputably in the teams at the middle of the table going down,” Osorio told ESPN Mexico. “They also could play in Holland, in Portugal as well.

Ospina has been Arsene Wenger’s first-choice goalkeeper in the Champions League this campaign, while Cech remains Arsenal’s man between the sticks in the Premier League. The Colombian is set for another chance in Wednesday’s crunch clash with Paris Saint-Germain at the Emirates Stadium and expects to be as sharp as ever thanks to working daily with Cech. “You have to show what you can do in training, you have to be very mentally tough,” Ospina told reporters....

Our Flag Means Death achieves this by turning the pirate comedy into a rom-com of sorts for HBO Max, with the somewhat surprising twist that Stede Bonnet and Blackbeard suddenly find what they have been looking for practically their entire lives in one another. However, this transition from bromance at sea to romance is not necessarily rushed or forced in any way, instead, it feels like the perfect way to cap off the series’ 10-episode run in the same skit-like style it’s been using so far....

Jeremy Bailenson and Nick Yee of Stanford University had this and other classic studies in mind when they started wondering about the effect of being able to alter one’s appearance. They weren’t going to study wardrobe choices, however. Their quarry is avatars, digital representations of players in such games as Second Life. “Your physical appearance changes how people treat you,” says Bailenson. “But independent of that, when you perceive yourself in a certain way, you act differently....
