    Fortnite’s next season tests the extraction waters.

    In Fortnite: Runners, you can seek out cute little sprites that give you powers, and if you extract them before a match is over, you can spend a special currency to start the next match with a sprite equipped. Not super surprising that Fortnite is trying extraction out, given the rise of games like Arc Raiders and Marathon.

    Runners, which is expected to be playable later tonight, will also feature a comic book-style John Wick.

    It’s the Sebulba game!

    Sorry, I mean Star Wars: Galactic Racer. A new trailer shows off what appears to be the game’s story mode. The conversations look a little stilted, but who cares — all I care about is the podracing. It’s coming out on October 6th.
