Not a fan of Xur’s wares this week? Or maybe you want something more to earn and prove your might in the same process? Well, MP1st is back today with the Destiny 2 Trials of Osiris rewards this week June 19 edition!
Guardians, we’re back once again with the hooded figure’s wares with the MP1st Destiny 2 Xur location June 19 post! Same as before, we have his location, and what items he’s selling.
Destiny 2 Xur Location June 19, 2020:
Xûr, Agent of the Nine
Description:
A peddler of strange curios, Xûr’s motives are not his own. He bows to his distant masters, the Nine.
Xûr, Agent of the Nine, is a strange vendor who randomly appears in a Public Sector in each of the Worlds, depending on the current Flashpoint. Xûr sells Exotic equipment and only takes Legendary Shards in exchange for them.
TL;DR: He’s the Santa Claus of Destiny and every weekend is Christmas. Sometimes he brings you what you want, sometimes he brings you coal. Mostly it’s coal.
When does Xûr visit?
Xûr visits every Friday at 17:00 UTC and departs at reset. If you would like to see all the live conversions of Time Zones, please follow this link here.
While SMITE players just got the big “The Great Dreamer” update just a few days ago, Hi-Rez Studios has released the SMITE update 11.45 June 19 patch, and as one might expect given this is the second patch we’ve gotten in the same week, this is purely for fixes.
SMITE update 11.45 June 19 patch notes:
Description
Fix for Rama camera zoomed in after using Ult. Ao Kuang camera zoom after using Ult (same issue as Rama, though different fix)
That’s basically it. According to the official SMITE Trello board, some of the top issues brought by The Great Dreamer update such as Cthulhu sometimes turning invisible is still being investigated. Other changes being planned for the next update includes “10 mastery avatar is not in game,” and “Cthulhu pantheon icon showing Chinese in match lobby,” These are marked as “fixed in future release” so players will be glad to know that the next patch should include these fixes.
If there are more changes included in this SMITE Update 11.45 June 19 patch, we’ll update the post. If you spot any, share ’em down below in the comments.
Earlier this year, New World Interactive announced that Inusrgency: Sandstorm would be hitting consoles (PS4, Xbox One) this August 25. Well, that’s not happening. Today, the studio announced the Insurgency console release has been pushed back.
We have important information to share with our community today regarding the status of the upcoming PlayStation 4 and Xbox One releases of Insurgency: Sandstorm.
While development of the console versions have been on a good track, we will be unable to launch the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One versions of Insurgency: Sandstorms on August 25, 2020.
We know this is very disappointing and frustrating news for those of you who have been waiting for the console release, and we know you have been waiting a long time to hear from us. We aim to make use of the additional time to improve the Day 1 experience of our company’s first-ever console title. This additional time will allow us to deliver a more complete and optimised version of the game, as well as explore the exciting possibilities of a next-gen console release in addition to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
We will keep our community updated as and when we get new information, and a new release date will be communicated via our social media and console newsletter. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this uncertain time and hope our fans and players around the world are staying safe and well.
Thank you,
Keith Warner – CEO, Derek Czerkaski – Head of Production
Hopefully, we’ll get console gameplay footage of the game soon to tide us over.
Those in Asia, the first-person shooter CrossFire should be a familiar name. Those who aren’t familiar with it, it’s a PC game developed by Smilegate Entertainment and published by Tencent Games. While we know that CrossFire is coming to consoles (first on Xbox One), the CrossFire Xbox One beta date has been leaked by the Xbox Store.
According to the listing, it’s set for release this June 25, and will clock in at 5.8GB!
Description
CrossfireX delivers an intense first-person shooter experience where players are immersed in a sprawling global conflict between the world’s two most formidable private military factions: Global Risk employs veterans of powerful armed forces who use advanced technologies to fight for order and security; Black List employs hardened mercenaries trained in guerilla tactics who fight to destabilize oppressive regimes in the name of freedom. Choose your side and complete objective-based missions across a variety of classic and innovative modes featuring tightly crafted gameplay and cinematic visuals.
Mind, this hasn’t been officially announced by Microsoft, so the date might change. If it doesn’t, Xbox One owners can expect a new shooter to grace their consoles soon. It’s not confirmed whether the same beta will be available for PS4, though given that this is coming to Xbox One first, I doubt that.
Earlier this week, Ubisoft has released The Division 2 Title Update 10 that brings in a host of new changes, and more. While that in itself is exciting, the second Raid for The Division 2 is coming next week! Curious about The Division 2 Operation Iron Horse Raid rewards? Read on.
The Division 2 Raid Operation Iron Horse Rewards, Requirements, Trailers and More:
Season 2
Right now we are in the pre-season week, that is also why the Season is already displayed and some audio collectibles can be played as you are doing content.
The Season 2 will start on June 23rd.
Apparel Event Picture will follow at a later point
Similarity to Season 1
Some have mentioned that Season 2 is similar to Season 1 in terms of activities.
The Seasons have the goal and are a way to structure endgame.
While you can always farm and look for specific items, the Season has the purpose to give you a goal and something to do. The Season Progression, the Reward Track, and so on come on top of that.
The Seasons don’t replace new content – besides that, new content like Skyscraper is already announced.
The seasons are a way to make sure the game is alive, there is something to do and that there is some guidance that helps you in daily activities.
Access to the Season
When you own Warlords of New York, you are level 40 and have completed the Story campaign you have access to Season 2 and all activities.
The Premium Track offers extra rewards and cosmetics
The Season 2 Pass also gives you a daily project that requires you to complete a mission to earn Season XP.
Raid: Operation Iron Horse
Following the initial Black Friday outbreak, a group of civilians gathered to settle in the United Ironworks; a foundry located close to Washington D.C.
Unfortunately, the True Sons raided the foundry sometime later and took control. Here they have hidden away from the public eye and are once more scheming against The Division by expanding their already vast arsenal of weaponry. However, The Division has learned about their plans and are ready to strike back against this new growing threat.
Operation Iron Horse demonstrates how determined and ruthless the True Sons are. During this challenge, you will not only have to face the True Sons and the secrets they are hiding; but also the treacherous environment of a foundry. All bosses will come with their own unique mechanics and will challenge players’ ability to cooperate efficiently and to operate in a highly challenging environment.
Rewards
The Ravenous exotic is a double-barrel rifle that offers both offensive and defensive bonuses to players.
The Regulus exotic is a revolver that offers high base damage and creates explosions on headshot kills that amplify damage and apply bleed to all enemies nearby.
The Foundry Bulwark gear set is designed for players wanting to maximize their survivability, allowing both their shield and themselves to absorb and repair the damage they take over time.
The Future Initiative gear set is designed for players wanting to support their team with strong repairs, while also increasing the damage output of teammates while they’re at full armor.
Crafting Projects
The first step is to finish the Raid
There are projects to unlock the raid sets and the Regulus blueprints.
Raid Gear Sets
While Bulwark and Future Initiative are assigned to the raid, only the chest and backpack items are exclusive to the raid, the other items drop in the regular loot pool.
This also makes them accessible for players that don’t play the raid.
Operation Iron Horse will be available on June 30th at 6 PM CEST for level 40. To start the raid, players will need to speak with the helicopter pilot at the Base of Operations. This brings up the raid tab on the social menu where it will list the new raid, allowing everyone to start building their raid groups.
Level 30 Raid will follow a week later.
Level 30 Raid later than Level 40
A short explanation of why the level 30 raid comes a week later:
For them the Raid is the ultimate challenge for the player
Level 40 is the highest version of the game and also the toughest challenge.
They did not want to make the world’s first a race between level 30 and level 40 and then have the discussion that the level 30 might have been easier to complete.
That is why the level 40 raid got the priority
Operation Iron Horse: Race to World First
Date: June 30th, 5 PM CEST / 11 AM ET / 8 AM PT.
The Race to World First will begin with a pre-show streaming on twitch.tv/thedivisiongame at 3 PM UTC/8 AM PT on June 30, with a showcase by some of the developers behind Operation Iron Horse, before it opens for everyone.
The Raid is free for all players – and any group of 8 players can squad up to take it in, but only a single group per platform can lay claim to the title of “World’s First.” The group is not limited to friends or clan-mates. You can try your hand at the Raid with anyone – but outstanding communication and cooperation will be necessary to have a shot at victory.
The Bellowing Crowd
Be a part of the celebration on June 30th. Leading up to and during the race to the World First, we’ll have Twitch Drops activated on numerous The Division 2 streamers Twitch accounts. Meaning you’ll be able to join in on your favorite stream, look on as all the different teams try their hand at the Raid, and walk away with some rewards of your own!
In order to be eligible to earn Twitch Drops your Ubisoft account and Twitch account must be linked. Linking your accounts can be done here and further instructions of how to do so are available in this support FAQ.
Once the new Raid is live, we’ll be sure to let our readers know.

During today’s EA Play Live 2020 event, EA closed off their event with the announcement that Skate 4 was indeed in development.
To clarify, they never actually said it was called Skate 4, but it would by count, be the fourth Skate game by the company. The game directors left us with a message, hinting that this was just the beginning while thanking the community for commenting the game into existence.
Skate is back! In response to the voices of incredibly passionate fans for nearly a decade, Chief Studios Officer, Laura Miele, left one last surprise for players. Cuz Parry and Deran Chung, the game’s Game Director and Creative Director respectively, shared that while this is just the beginning and there is a long way to go, work on the next evolution in the Skate franchise has begun.
No additional details for Skate 4 were revealed, though seeing as they are only just starting development, we think its safe to say that the title will most likely launch on next-gen platforms sometimes within the next few years. We’re sure we’ll hear more on the title as we inch closer to next-gen, but for now, just be happy that it’s finally happening after years of requests.

As part of the EA Play show, EA showcased a short EA next-gen sizzle reel teasing what the publisher’s studios are doing. We get a brief look at BioWare’s project, and even what seems to be a super tiny next-gen sampling of DICE’s tech for the next Battlefield game where we can see massive battles taking place!
EA has sent the official press release, and we’re adding the blurb included for the teaser.
Next Generation
EA’s best-in-class studios are working on a number of games powered by the next generation technology of PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, creating new experiences and new stories. Criterion, known for how their games feel, will seamlessly immerse players into a race in a matter of seconds. BioWare™ creates worlds where players become the hero of their own story. DICE, who set the bar for excellence in audio and visual, are creating epic battles at a scale and fidelity unlike ever before. Motive Montreal are working on a highly ambitious and innovative new game that puts the power and creativity in player’s hands, an experience not possible without next generation technology.

Check out the trailer for Lost Treasures which is out this June 23.

Apex Legends’ Season 5 has the highest level of per-play engagement seen to date, the highest daily retention of any season and the largest number of new players since Season 1. When Apex Legends launches on Steam and Switch with cross-play support this fall, the game will welcome even more new players to the battle.
During EA Play Live, the team at Respawn also unveiled that the Lost Treasures Collection Event will start June 23. The event features a new mode, limited time exclusives and a new Town Takeover — Crypto’s Map Room. Players can see the return of the game’s sniper and shotgun only mode – Armed and Dangerous – with a few twists such as Evo Armor and an all-new piece of loot, Mobile Respawn Beacons.
The EA Play Live 2020 event is set to begin in real soon, and to prepare yourself here’s an official list of places you can watch the event.
What Time Does EA Play Live 2020 Stream Begin?
The event will start at 4pm PDT / 7pm EDT today. For those who live in a different region, you can check what time that is using the TimeandDate site.
How Long is the Show?
According to some sources, the show is roughly 50 minutes long, although it is pre-recorded, meaning nothing is actually “live.”
Where Can I Watch EA Play Live?
Youtube: You can watch it from the EA’s official Youtube channel, which is embedded below.
Twitch: Usually the alternative to Youtube considering it’s typically running a bit ahead. This will be hosted on EA’s Twitch Channel.
EA.com: EA is also hosting the show on their own website, all you have to do is visit this URL: https://www.ea.com/ea-play-live
What Can We Expect?
As of now, we know that Star Wars Squadron will have some gameplay to debut. We can most likely expect to see Madden 21, along with the full portfolio of sports titles that EA publishes, including UFC 4 which leaked a week ago. Otherwise, the rest is up for speculation, though don’t be surprised if a new Need for Speed game makes an appearance. We don’t expect to hear on anything from Battlefield, though if we do it’ll most likely be a brief mention. Medal of Honor VR will most likely make an appearance.
Miss the show? Don’t worry we’ll have coverage of the biggest announcements once they are revealed, so be sure to check back here later today!

Gearbox Software has rolled out a Borderlands 3 update today June 18 hotfix that should be live now! Players will know that it’s installed in your game as you will see a sign in the main menu that says “Hotfixes Applied.”
Borderlands 3 update today June 18 patch notes:
Today we will release a hotfix for Borderlands 3, which will be live on all platforms by 12:00 PM PST. This week’s hotfixes give a buff to the Webslinger weapon and address some grammatical errors. To apply hotfixes, wait at the main menu until you see a sign that says “Hotfixes Applied”! If you are experiencing any issues or want to provide feedback, please submit a ticket to support.2k.com.
Increased the damage and magazine size of the Webslinger assault rifle

Excited for Larian Studios’ (Divinity: Original Sin) Baldur’s Gate 3? Curious how it’ll look in actual gameplay? Well, here’s over an hour of Baldur’s Gate 3 gameplay to feast on!
Check out raw combat Baldur’s Gate 3 gameplay below.
Here’s the official info from the pres release:
Here’s some of the new changes and content shown in the stream:
The narrator that will lead players through the game has changed to present tense/second-person narration.
Changes have been made to the initiative system. Previous gameplay showed the side initiative, which has evolved over the past month. Characters with similar individual initiative can now be grouped together automatically, allowing players to try out combinations and align their attacks in a group initiative system. Other characters and enemies will have individual initiative.
Vincke showed the inspiration system for the first time. Inspiration points allow the player to reroll one of their dice — a very valuable tool for when the roll of the dice decides life and death. These points are awarded to the player for finding special solutions during their playthrough.
Reactivity to the player character: Vincke played as a custom character elf, showcasing how the world reacts to who you are and, more importantly, which decisions you have made in the past.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is the third mainline entry in the franchise, and is based on the Dungeons & Dragons tabletop RPG license. It’s currently set for release for PC and Stadia.
A quick playlist update is rolling out now across all platforms that addresses the following:
· Adds Blood Money back to #Warzone
· Moves BR Solos into a sub menu
· Removing Scrapyard from Hardcore playlists
That’s basically it. We’re not expecting any gameplay-related changes included in this playlist update, but if there are any, we’ll update the post.
While Hello Games has already released about three patches for No Man’s Sky in a span of a week, the studio has released the No Man’s Sky update 2.54 June 18 patch, and it’s once again full of fixes for crossplay and more.
No Man’s Sky update 2.54 June 18 patch notes:
Hello everyone,
Thank you to everyone playing the Crossplay Update, especially those taking the time to report any issues they encounter via Zendesk or console crash reporting.
We are listening closely to your feedback, and have identified and resolved a number of stability issues. These fixes have been combined into patch 2.54, which will be live on all platforms today. Patch Notes

On consoles, fixed a crash that could occur when NPC pilots get into their ships to take off (this issue had already been fixed on PC).
Fixed a number of issues that could prevent players from being able to see other ambient players.
Fixed an issue that could allow players to join a group they did not have permission to join.
Fixed a networking error that could occur when joining games from the frontend.
Fixed an issue that could prevent Steam sessions from being marked full when at the player cap.
Fixed an issue that prevented system-level messages from appearing in the chat window if chat permissions were restricted.

Will we see another patch this week for the game after the No Man’s Sky update 2.54 June 18 patch? Who knows, but at least Hello Games is prolific in releasing these fixes out.
While Bungie has released a server-side fix for Destiny 2 just a few days ago, the studio has released the Destiny 2 update 1.53 June 18 hotfix, which the studio dubs as hotfix 2.9.0.1. Even if this is called a hotfix, there’s a lot of changes and fixes in it.
Here’s some bad news for the day: CD Projekt RED has announced the Cyberpunk 2077 delayed news today, and it’s due to the game needing more time in the oven for bug fixes.
We have decided to move the launch of Cyberpunk 2077 from September 17 to November 19.
Those of you who are familiar with the way we make games know that we won’t ship something which is not ready. “Ready when it’s done” is not just a phrase we say because it sounds right, it’s something we live by even when we know we’ll take the heat for it. At the same time, we are fully aware that making such a decision costs us your trust and trading trust for additional time is one of the hardest decisions a game developer can make. And despite we think it’s the right decision for the game, we’d still like to apologize for making you wait longer. Our intention is to make Cyberpunk 2077 something that will stay with you for years to come. In the end, we hope you understand why we did what we did.
At the time we are writing these words, Cyberpunk 2077 is finished both content and gameplay-wise. The quests, the cutscenes, the skills and items; all adventures Night City has to offer — it’s all there. But with such an abundance of content and complex systems interweaving with each other, we need to properly go through everything, balance game mechanics and fix a lot of bugs. A huge world means a huge number of things to iron out and we will spend the additional time doing exactly that.
This week, journalists from all over the world are starting to independently play the game. We are eager (and quite stressed) to hear their opinions, as well as see your reactions when they publish their previews right after we air Nighty City Wire on the 25th of June. We hope this will satisfy some of your hunger for the game as we work to polish it for the November launch.
Thank you,
Marcin Iwinski – Co-Founder & Adam Badowski – Head of Studio
