Director Denis Villeneuve has spoken about how the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has impacted Dune's production and post-production, admitting that it will now be a "sprint" to finish the film on time. In a new interview promoting the Shanghai International Film Festival, per IndieWire, Villeneuve opened up about some of the challenges that he has faced amid the film industry shutdowns, as he addressed the difficulty of trying to replicate the editing room virtually while being separated from the crew. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/04/14/tease-for-dune-2020-shows-timothe-chalamets-hero-ign-now"] "I was planning to go back and shoot some elements later because I wanted to readjust the movie. I needed time. At the time I didn't know that it would be a pandemic... as we were about to go back to do those elements," Villeneuve revealed. "The impact was that it crushed my schedule right now. It will be a sprint to finish the movie on time right now, because we were allowed to go back to shoot those elements in a few weeks... it meant also that I have to finish some elements of the movie, like VFX and the editing, being in Montreal as my crew stayed in Los Angeles." Villeneuve and his cast and crew are heading back out with the cameras to complete the reshoots later this month, as it was previously confirmed that Dune would undergo additional filming in Hungary, one of the production's original shooting locations, some time in mid-August. [ignvideo width=610 height=374 url=https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/04/15/dune-director-explains-why-his-adaptation-will-be-split-across-two-movies-ign-news] While reshoots and additional shoots are commonplace in major Hollywood productions, Villeneuve admitted that the editing process has been one of the most "painful" challenges in lockdown, so he is now playing catch-up to get all of the footage assembled in time for the film's December release. "As a director, there are things that can be done remotely to deal with technology. The supervision of VFX with some equipment is easy to do from afar but, editing, for me, the big lesson from this is I thought it would be possible to edit at a distance," Villeneuve added. "But I realize how much editing is like playing music with someone and you need to be in the same room. There's something about the interaction, human interaction, the spontaneity, the energy in the room. I really miss not being in the same room as my editor [Joe Walker]... it's very, very painful." [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=dune-movie-images&captions=true"] Villeneuve has already made it clear that his upcoming film will be the first of two Dune installments because Frank Herbert's seminal sci-fi novel is "too complex" to fit into a single feature film.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers will be able to begin streaming select titles to their smartphones and tablets through Project xCloud starting on September 15 at no additional cost. In a new blog post, Xbox announced the release date for when its xCloud streaming service will be available to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is Microsoft’s premier version of the video game subscription service, Game Pass, which includes both console and PC Game Pass libraries, Xbox Live Gold, and now xCloud. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/06/13/hands-on-with-microsofts-xcloud-streaming-service-and-halo-5-e3-2019"] Project xCloud is Xbox’s foray into cloud streaming, which will allow users to stream games directly to a smartphone or tablet. Furthermore, everything tied to your Xbox Account including achievements, friends, game saves, progression, player profile, and controller settings will carry over with you on the new Xbox Game Pass app. Xbox says there will be over 100 titles from Xbox Game Pass’ library ready to play for xCloud at launch, but says a full catalog reveal will arrive later. In the meantime, Xbox shared a smaller list of games that will be available on xCloud including Gears 5 Ultimate Edition, Halo 5: Guardians, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice, Minecraft Dungeons, Sea of Thieves, and more. Xbox’s big pitch with xCloud is that it will serve as a convenient additional feature to its overall Game Pass package, which lets members download and play games from a library of hundreds of titles, for a monthly fee. While Game Pass Ultimate’s bread and butter is still its library of games, adding xCloud will give existing subscribers a completely new feature for no extra cost. In its blog, Xbox paints a scenario where Game Pass Ultimate members can continue their console or PC gaming on the go, whether it’s traveling or on a lunch break, or if the home console is being used for something else. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=confirmed-xbox-series-x-games&captions=true"] There are also co-op opportunities with xCloud that will let you and a friend play multiplayer games together, in the same room with one person on the console or PC, and the other on a smartphone or tablet. Project xCloud will be available through an updated Xbox Game Pass app that will be available for download on September 15 Microsoft also revealed a series of mobile gaming accessories designed to work with Game Pass titles on smartphones, including new controller peripherals from Razer, PowerA, 8bitDo, and Steel Series. Check out the shortlist of games announced for xCloud as well as our Xbox Series X guide for more on Microsoft’s next-gen plans. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Matt T.M. Kim is a reporter for IGN.

I am very excited about playing Fall Guys on PS4, but I know I'm going to be pretty terrible at it - at for least a short while - because the game has launched without an Invert Y-Axis option, or any controller options at all, on console. The game show-like battle royale launched on PS4 and Steam today, but only the latter includes controller options, including button-binding, sensitivity, and invert options. You can see the difference between the two versions' menus below. It's not clear why the two versions differ in this way. When asked for comment, developer Mediatonic said, "We're currently looking into this and hoping to have it resolved in a future hotfix." [widget path="global/page/imagecomparison" parameters="comparisons=%7B%22comparisons%22%3A%5B%7B%22caption%22%3A%22%22%2C%22images%22%3A%5B%7B%22id%22%3A%225f2942e5e4b0d33753f649e8%22%2C%22label%22%3A%22PS4%22%7D%2C%7B%22id%22%3A%225f2942d0e4b0d33753f649e7%22%2C%22label%22%3A%22Steam%22%7D%5D%7D%5D%7D"] On a serious level, the ability to rebind buttons as a whole is a key element of accessibility for many players with reduced mobility in their hands. On a less important level, for a fully controller-based version of a game to not offer any customisation (when it exists on other platforms) is, well, just a bit odd. It may seem a minor issue, but for the sizeable number of absolute brain-geniuses like me who prefer their Y-axis flipped, it will make the game meaningfully more difficult to play until the option is added. Hopefully, it won't take too long for Mediatonic to remedy the issue. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Joe Skrebels is IGN's Executive Editor of News. Follow him on Twitter. Have a tip for us?

Fortnite is receiving an update that will bring drivable cars to the game later this week. The Joy Ride update will land tomorrow, on Wednesday, August 5. The official Fortnite Twitter account has been teasing the update, giving us a glimpse at the type of cars we can expect to arrive in tomorrow's update. So far we've seen a sports car that looks a bit like a Hot Wheels toy called the "Whiplash" and a bulky truck known as the "Mudflap." User Jonathan287 collected all of the in-game posters on Reddit - their collage includes two new vehicles called the Bear and the Prevalent. Further details about how the cars will function in-game are yet to be revealed.

Own the Road.

Atlantis recently surfaced in Fortnite as the water level has been draining from the map in Chapter 2: Season 3, resulting in a new area known as Coral Castle. We also recently learned that Fortnite will receive special Marvel's Avengers crossover items, tied to the game's upcoming beta. PS4 and Xbox One players who finish the Marvel's Avengers beta will receive a pair of Hulk Smashers which replace the player's pickaxe in-game. The Hulk Smashers will also feature an alternate style which homages Iron Man's Hulkbuster armour. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Jordan Oloman is a freelance writer for IGN.

A new report claims that Sony plans to make new PlayStation 5 announcements this month. Bloomberg says a PlayStation official - who remained anonymous, as the plan isn't public - explained that Sony "tentatively" plans to make its next announcement in August. It's not clear when that announcement will take place, nor what it will be. That said, it feels likely that the announcement would centre around the console's price and release date, which the remain the major unknowns around PS5 (and its competitor Xbox Series X). [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/ps5-sony-reportedly-increasing-production-to-10-million-consoles-in-2020-ign-news"] That would fit into Sony's recent statement saying preorders for the console won't come as a surprise - meaning it's feasible that this next announcement will serve as the early warning for preorders opening. Worldwide Head of Marketing Eric Lempel previously said "I think it's safe to say...we'll let you know when preorder will happen. It's not going to happen with a minute's notice. We're going to at some point let you know when you can preorder PlayStation 5. So, please, don't feel like you have to go run out and line up anywhere until you receive official notice on how that will work." When preorders do arrive, it seems as though Sony may be limiting orders to one per household. Here's everything we know about PS5 preorders right now. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=confirmed-playstation-5-games&captions=true"] Whatever this announcement is, we know it won't be a part of August 6's State of Play, which will focus on upcoming third-party published PS4 and PS VR games, with check-ins on PS5 games announced at the PS5 reveal showcase, but will feature "no big PS5 announcements."
