Giant-size 8 GB patch for Star Wars Battlefront preps the game for Outer Rim DLC 

Still plenty of free stuff for those who don’t buy the expansion A gigantic patch arrives today for Star Wars Battlefront, preparing the game for the Outer Rim premium downloadable content while delivering other new features that are free for all.
The patch is 8 GB and it adds new Star Cards (specialty weapons and boosts) and guns, earned under the guise of the “Hutt Contracts" teased two weeks ago. Not only that, combatants (as long as they aren’t hero characters like Luke Skywalker or Boba Fett) now have a rolling dodge option. A spectator mode mentioned before also is a part of this patch.
The new firearms are the DL-18, DT-12, DLT-19X and RELBY-V10, and if you know the differences among those four, you must be a Wookieepedia editor. The combat roll is activated by double tapping B/Circle while a character is strafing (Alt for PC players, this key can be remapped as well).
As usual, it comes with a slew of gameplay balances, nerfs and buffs to even out the multiplayer experience. Once again, the powerful DL-44 pistol is getting a haircut; its damage decreases significantly at ranges greater than 40 meters. Activating a personal shield renders a player unable to fire weapons or throw grenades (all other actions are still fair game) and droids and turrets will explode 20 seconds after the player who deployed them is killed, to cut back on cheap kills that way.
Plenty more details may be seen here, if there’s something in particular that has been bugging you.
Outer Rim arrives today for those who picked up the $49.99 "season pass" entitling them to it and three future expansions planned this year. For those who want it a la carte, it goes on sale for $14.99 on April 5.
Outer Rim delivers new maps, even more weapons, and playable stars Nien Nunb and Greedo, who are well known as the common action figures that were always on the shelves when you were trying to find Princess Leia Organa (Boushh Disguise) or Luke Skywalker (Bespin Fatigues).

Rise of the Tomb Raider’s last DLC pack arrives next week 

They’re not zombies, but they totally are Rise of the Tomb Raider’s third and final add-on, Cold Darkness Awakened, will be released March 29 on Windows PC, Xbox 360 and Xbox One, publishers Microsoft Studios and Square Enix announced today.
The downloadable content introduces a new mode in which Lara Croft heads to an old Cold War-era research facility and finds that a breach has allowed a contagious illness to escape into the surrounding area. The deadly disease turns Trinity soldiers into “bloodthirsty killers who thrive on carnage" — aka zombies — and Lara has to use every tool at her disposal to survive as she attempts to re-seal the base.
Cold Darkness Awakened is the last piece of Rise of the Tomb Raider’s $29.99 season pass. Players who don’t own the season pass will be able to buy the DLC pack on its own for $9.99 on Steam, the Xbox Live Marketplace (Xbox 360), the Xbox Games Store (Xbox One) and the Windows Store.
For more on Cold Darkness Awakened and the rest of the season pass, check out the trailer above. Rise of the Tomb Raider is scheduled to be released this holiday season on PlayStation 4.

Hands-on with Line Wobbler: a 16 foot fall, one-dimensional dungeon crawler 

Watch on YouTube | Subscribe to Polygon on YouTube
The first time I saw Line Wobbler, it was at last year’s Game Developers Conference in the alt.ctrl.gdc booth, an area of the show floor dedicated to games played using unconventional input methods. The game stood out immediately — towering more than a dozen feet in the air and controlled with a wobbly spring-based controller, it looked and played like nothing else I’d ever seen. The next time I ran into Line Wobbler was at Indiecade 2015, then again at last year’s Day of the Devs — each time, the game’s controller changed slightly. According to Line Wobbler’s creator, Robin Baumgarten, that’s because the game is constantly evolving — the first few iterations of its controller involved a shoehorn, then a doorstop (he tells me the difference between American and European doorstops has drastic gameplay implications), before he finally settled on a custom controller he produced in collaboration with a spring factory, who he says was very confused by his initial request.
If you haven’t heard of Line Wobbler, it’s a bit hard to describe — which is why we made a video at this year’s GDC, in Double Fine’s Day of the Devs booth, demonstrating what the game is and how it works. For more on Line Wobbler, check out Baumgarten’s website for the project.

Harrison Ford debut’s behind-the-scenes footage, talks future of Han Solo on Kimmel 

Or, rather, talked about it as much as he could Harrison Ford returned to Jimmy Kimmel’s late night program on Monday to talk about finally getting his Han Solo wish in, Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
The actor, who was promoting the DVD and Blu-ray release of the film, was asked about Solo’s role in the movie and whether he was happy with where the story took him.
Ford said that he had been campaigning for 30 years to have Solo killed, stating in previous interviews that it seemed like the only way to close his character’s chapter, and was happy they finally listened to him.
“You work for, like, 25 years for the company," Ford told Kimmel. "You do your best, you show up everyday, you do your job. And then they just let you go."
When asked if he or Han Solo were going to be in any of the other movies, appearing as an apparition or through a flashback, Ford wouldn’t answer.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens is available on DVD and Blu-ray April 5, but those looking to watch it earlier can download it on iTunes as of April 1.

Watch Linkle take on Skull Kid in this mission from Hyrule Warriors Legends 

Watch on YouTube | Subscribe to Polygon on YouTube
Hyrule Warriors Legends, the 3DS port of the 2014 Wii U hack-and-slasher, features a handful of new playable characters, including the crossbow-wielding hero Linkle and the Majora’s Mask villain Skull Kid. Of course, these new characters don’t exactly play nice with one another to begin with. In the video above, you can watch Linkle’s introductory mission, revealing her heroic destiny and relatively harmless run-in with Skull Kid, who seems to have put his moon-crashing plans on hold for the time being.

Yakuza 0 heads West ‘early’ next year on PS4 

Says yes to physical releases — but no to PS3 Yakuza 0, the latest entry in — and prequel to — Sega’s action brawler series, will make its Western debut sometime in “early 2017," the company announced.
Alongside the news comes the short new trailer above, which packs in plenty of the glitz, glamor and girls the series is known for in just over 60 seconds. It’s the first look stateside fans have had at the game since Sega confirmed the localized version during December’s PlayStation Experience event. Unlike in Japan, however, Yakuza 0 will arrive as a PlayStation 4 exclusive.
While it will ditch the PlayStation 3 port, Sega will give Yakuza fans the option of buying the game physically or digitally when it does launch. That’s unlike the recent stateside release of Yakuza 5, which Sega launched on the PlayStation Store in December. The PS3 game first hit Japan in 2012.
Next up on PS4: Yakuza 6, which is planned for a Japanese release later this year.

Everything coming to and leaving Netflix in April 

Sat hello to Kimmy Schmidt, but goodbye to 2 Fast 2 Furious With April usually comes warm weather and a strong desire to be outside as much as possible, especially after surviving the coldest winter months. As tempting as that may sound, April also marks the return of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt’s second season on Netflix.
The show, created by Tina Fey and Robert Carlock, follows the lead character, Kimmy (Ellie Kemper), in New York City after she’s rescued from an underground bunker where she and three other women were being held captive. The show’s humor draws parallels to 30 Rock, and its offbeat comedy was one of the reasons it became so popular with both audiences and critics.
In its sophomore season, Kimmy’s still looking for love with her best friend and eccentric roommate, Titus (Tituss Burgess) while helping her elitist boss, Jaqueline (Jane Krakowski) navigate through life post-divorce. Most of the jokes will still be founded in Kimmy’s detachment from the modern world, but at least she knows how to text now.
The second season of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt will be available to stream in its entirety on April 15, but it’s not the only new program subscribers will have available to them next month.
Ricky Gervais’ Special Correspondents will also premiere on Netflix next month, marking Gervais’ return to the service after the success of his mini-series, Derek.
The satirical film is a remake of a French movie of the same name and follows a radio journalist and his technician as they fake their own kidnapping in South America while hiding out in New York City. The movie stars Eric Bana, Vera Farmiga, Kelly Macdonald, America Ferrera and Gervais. It premieres April 29.
Other classic titles like Shawshank Redemption, 2001: A Space Odyssey and The Princess Bride will also be available to stream.
While there are certainly new shows and films coming to Netflix, there are a bunch leaving, too. Most notably, 2 Fast 2 Furious will be leaving (although the rest of the series will be available) and all 11 seasons of M*A*S*H will be gone.

Hyper Light Drifter comes to PC March 31 

Console versions coming later Developer Heart Machine’s stylish action role-playing game Hyper Light Drifter will come to Mac and Windows PC next week, the studio announced in an update on its Kickstarter page. Those platforms will get the game March 31, while players on other platforms will have to wait a bit.
Here’s what the developer had to say about the planned Linux version:

We are still working out some final kinks on the Linux build; we still plan to launch it at the same time as PC and Mac, though there’s the possibility of needing a bit of extra time. So far it’s looking good, and like it’ll be out in time. We’ll keep everyone posted on this subject.

Hyper Light Drifter’s console versions will arrive sometime in 2016, according to a newly released trailer.
Heart Machine funded Hyper Light Drifter through Kickstarter in 2013, pitching the top-down action game as a “beautiful, vast and ruined world riddled with unknown dangers and lost technologies … inspired by nightmares and dreams alike."
