Warface, Blackwood Games' free-to-play military shooter, has been making the rounds through the gaming landscape since its release back in 2014. It's already available on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, meaning there's only one of this generation's consoles left to conquer.
Gears 5 kicked off its second “Operation” (i.e., season) last month, called “Operation: Free For All.” The Title Update 3 brought a slew of bug fixes, maps, and the new Free For All PvP mode to the game, but that’s not all we got for December.

Last month, The Coalition showed off the new three player co-op mode that, Escape, will be a part of Gears 5 when it arrives in September.
