In a sudden turn of events, Vancouver Art Gallery is halting the construction of its new building and cutting ties with Herzog & de Meuron, the architects behind it.

Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 and 2 Remasteredis set to bring Crystal Dynamics acclaimed action-adventure series back from the dead imminently, and though it will obviously deliver visually enhanced versions of the original classics, its also set to bring additional content that fans of the originals in particular will likely want to check out, for which the remasters developer Aspyr has revealed new details on the PlayStation Blog.Specifically,Soul Reaver 1 and 2 Remasteredwill include four Lost Levels, which are areas that didnt make it into the original game, but have been restored through the joint efforts of Crystal Dynamics, Aspyr, and key community members.Each provides a glimpse into alternative visions of the original Soul Reaver. You can explore the Lost Levels as Raziel, although you may find missing textures or areas that feel under construction, explains Aspyrs associate brand manager Matthew Ray. Think of the Lost Levels as an interactive museum, an accessible copy of historic artifacts, preserved in their original state.The four Lost Levels on offer will take players to the human citadel of Undercity, which features an extensive subterranean area that would have become accessible after Raziels second battle with Kain; Smokestack, the massive fortress of Raziels brother Turel, where players would have acquired telekinetic traversal abilities; Retreat, Kains personal lair nestled in the mountains; and Forges that would have allowed Raziel to imbue the Reaver with sunlight, water, stone, sound, and spirit energy with environmental sources scattered throughout the game world.On top of that, additional bonus content in the remaster will include new maps, a lore reader, new music tracks, and more. Read more on that through here.Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 and 2 Remasteredlaunches on December 10 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

After revealing the final launch hero for Marvel Rivals, NetEase has detailed the games monetization. It already has post-launch seasons and microtransactions for cosmetics with no pay-to-win elements. However, a new article outlines the exact currencies, Battle Pass content, and more.There are two currencies Lattice and Units. The former is premium and purchased with real money (with one costing $0.99) and earned from the Battle Pass alongside Units. However, the latter can also be acquired from Events and Achievements, and you can exchange them for Lattices at a 1:1 rate.As for the Battle Pass, Season 0: Dooms Rise will cost 490 Lattices (roughly $5) and include five outfits (including a Legendary Quality skin for Mantis) alongside other cosmetics. The best part is that paid Battle Passes wont expire, and you can claim its rewards in later seasons.A free Battle Pass tier will also be available with at least one Epic Quality outfit and other items. Its worth noting that items from both tiers must be redeemed using Chrono Tokens earned from participating in events and completing tasks.Future paid Battle Passes will cost double Season 0s but also offer double the number of items. Those who prefer not to spend money can still look forward to free outfits and cosmetics by completing Achievements and events. NetEase will also provide free Units to purchase premium cosmetics.Marvel Rivals launches on December 6th. Its available to pre-load on Xbox Series X/S, so expect PC and PS5 to follow shortly.
