    Apple is adding another crime thriller to its streaming service.

    This time it’s Lucky, which stars Anya Taylor-Joy “as a young woman who left behind the life of crime she was raised in years ago, but must now embrace her darker, criminal side one final time in a desperate attempt to escape her past.” No word on when the series will be streaming.

    It’s all falling into place.

    It’s a good time to be a Tetris fan. Digital Eclipse just released the excellent playable documentary Tetris Forever, and now Nintendo is making the NES version of the game available to Switch Online subscribers. It’ll be available on December 12th. In the meantime, Nintendo also just updated its music app with tracks from Splatoon 2.

    Player 456 has joined the game.

    We don’t know exactly what it will look like, but Call of Duty will feature some kind of Squid Game collaboration in January that covers both Warzone and Black Ops 6. That’s right after season 2 of the show hits Netflix on December 26th.

    New chapter, new island.

    Following a record-breaking virtual concert, Fortnite’s sixth chapter kicks off tomorrow, which means it’s time for a new map. The Japanese-themed “Hunters” season will introduce locales like “Demon’s Dojo” and “Nightshift Forest,” and presumably at some point Godzilla will show up. Also, there’s a giant, ancient turtle. You can check out the full details on the new season right here.

    A record-breaking event.

    Fortnite’s most recent virtual concert just wrapped up, and Epic Games already says that it was the biggest in the game’s history, with more than 14 million concurrent players. For comparison, more than 12 million concurrent players attended the Travis Scott event in 2020. If you missed it, the event will air again at 8PM ET tonight.
