A game as big as Cyberpunk 2077 is naturally going to have some fantastic merch to go with it, such as the deluxe version of the World of Cyberpunk 2077 collection that recently went up for pre-order. It looks neat and it has a handy glimpse at the map of that upcoming game!

Marco van Basten, a notable player for the Netherlands, has been completely removed from the game following a joke that he describes as “stupid and inappropriate”.

Yesterday, Vodacom announced that it’d inked a partnership with Microsoft that’ll let its customers buy Xbox and Windows Store apps and games using their Vodacom airtime. While it seems a strange way of effecting payment, it’s actually a good way for parents – as one example – to limit kids’ spending on gaming because airtime can be duly allotted.
