Square Enix and People Can Fly have announced that Outriders has been delayed to April, and that a demo featuring all classes will be made available in late February. In a statement published to the Outriders Twitter account, the development team said "We have decided to move the release date of Outriders to April 1st 2021 (no joke!). We will spend this extra time fine tuning the game and focusing on delivering a fantastic play experience at launch."

Before that, though, what sounds like a substantial demo will be made available on February 25th. The demo will include "the first few hours of the game with all four classes" that can be played in single player or co-operative modes. Any progress made with characters in this demo will be "seamless" in its migration from demo to the full game, should you wish to buy it. "We believe it's important that players get to experience a new IP like Outriders before release," said the statement. "So that you can decide for yourselves whether the game is something you wish to pre-order, purchase, or play." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/12/11/outriders-the-game-awards-trailer"] This is another delay for Outriders, which had previously been pushed back last October to February 2021, after originally being set for a Holiday 2020 launch. This new date puts it several months behind the original plan, but hopefully will mean Outriders launches in a good state. The game itself feels like a mix of Diablo and Mass Effect, and our extensive preview coverage highlights some of its fun ideas, such as the Technomancer class and the escalating difficulty of its World Tiers. For more, check out our making of feature and how mods will affect your gameplay.

CES 2021 will arrive on schedule, starting on Monday, January 11, and continue through Thursday, January 14.

Sacha Baron Cohen has some not-so very nice news for Borat fans: He's not planning on bringing the character back for another sequel.  In an interview with Variety, Baron Cohen, who co-wrote and produced Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, a follow-up to his 2006 box office smash, said that it's very unlikely that he will revive the Borat character again, as he had a very specific purpose for returning to the role of the fictional Kazakhstani journalist last year, which he doesn't think he will be able to find again for a third movie. "I brought Borat out because of Trump," Baron Cohen told the outlet, speaking about his decision to reprise the character after so many years. "There was a purpose to this movie, and I don't really see the purpose to doing it again. So yeah, he's locked away in the cupboard." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/12/21/borat-2-star-maria-bakalova-reacts-to-best-lead-performance-in-a-movie-win"] Baron Cohen revealed that he hadn't planned to make a sequel to the first movie as he had "vowed never to make another undercover movie again" in the wake of his 2009 mockumentary Brüno because of how much it had impacted his real life, though he ultimately reversed that decision and decided to bring the character back for another outing last year. "After Bruno, I was fairly traumatized. For about six months afterwards whenever I heard a police siren, I would start to get tense, because I'd been chased by the police so much. I vowed never to make another undercover movie again," Baron Cohen revealed, before delving into his reasons for making the Borat sequel. "I felt democracy was in peril, I felt people's lives were in peril and I felt compelled to finish the movie," he explained, discussing the relevancy of the movie. "The movie was originally about the danger of Trump and Trumpism. What coronavirus demonstrated was that there's a lethal effect to his spreading of lies and conspiracy theories." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/10/21/borat-subsequent-moviefilm-review"] With many movie theaters remaining closed or operating a severely limited moviegoer capacity, Baron Cohen felt that the best option was to release the film digitally for as many people as possible to watch it before the US Presidential election in November, so he struck a distribution deal with Amazon Studios to allow the tech giant to release the movie exclusively on Amazon Prime Video in October. In our review of Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, we commended the sequel for managing to be "funny and relevant" all these years later. In particular, we praised Maria Bakalova's performance, saying she was "every bit Sacha Baron Cohen's on-screen equal" in the movie's "avalanche of awkward, anxiety-cranking moments that'll have you laughing while watching through your fingers like you would a horror movie."

Samsung has been showing off its massive wall-sized Micro LED TVs at CES since 2018, but now the company is finally ready to sell these massive screens to regular consumers. Available in 88, 99, and 110 inch sizes, Samsung’s Micro LED TVs feature a 99.99% screen to body ratio – so you really are just getting a sliver of bezel with all that screen space. As the name Micro LED might suggest, these TVs utilize much smaller LEDs. They're also self-illuminating, so they can produce perfect blacks and contrast like an OLED 4K TV can. Of course, having a really big screen at home is great for simulating the movie theater experience, but you can also split any of these Micro LED TVs into four smaller displays. In fact, the 110 inch screen can become four neatly separated 55 inch displays – perfect for split-screen Mario Kart. Samsung has yet to give a firm date of when these Micro LED TVs will release or pricing information, but you should definitely expect an eye-popping sticker price on these massive displays.

Samsung is introducing a new generation of TVs called Neo QLED. The company was the first to introduce QLED 4K TVs imbued with quantum dot technology and now is following that up with something new. Neo QLED TVs feature an all-new backlighting technology that uses smaller LEDs called Quantum Mini LED that also eliminate the need for a layer of lenses to capture and transmit backlight illumination. Now each compact Quantum Mini LED also emits its own light similar to how OLED screens work, but since they're made of inorganic material, there's no chance of burn in. [caption id="attachment_2458349" align="aligncenter" width="720"] Samsung Neo QLED TVs come with Google Duo built-in[/caption] The smaller LED also allows more lights to be packed into the same space, resulting in more backlighting zones and even greater brightness. At the same time, the smaller LEDs offer more finely controllable brightness and reduced bloom, resulting in higher contrast and deeper blacks. One other benefit of Quantum Mini LEDs is they're 1/40 of the height of a conventional LED, so Samsung will be able to reduce the thickness of its NeoLED TVs. Aside from the impressive new backlighting system, Samsung has fitted its Neo QLED TVs with a new AI Quantum processor. This new chip can more quickly process 8K image upscaling and introduce object-tracking sound that follows the action happening on the screen. Samsung’s new Neo QLED TVs also introduces two new gaming TV-focused features. First up, Ultrawide Gameview is all about giving users the option of turning their TV into an ultrawide 21:9, or even super ultrawide 32.9, display. Secondly, there’s a new Game Bar UI that allows players to quickly change their aspect ratio, check input lag, and connect a gaming headset. The first TVs to get the Neo QLED treatment include Samsung’s flagship Q90A line. Additionally, Samsung has announced a new Neo QLED QN900A 8K TV as well. We’re sure to get more details and specs on these TVs in the coming days, but don’t expect to see pricing until a few months later. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Have a tip for us?
