Ubisoft just debuted The Division’s second expansion, “Survival.” Unclear if it’ll actually have survival/weather/stamina mechanics, but here’s hoping. They also announced the release date for the first expansion, “Underground”: It’ll hit Xbox One and PC on June 28, PS4 on August 2.

Dual Universe sounds like an MMO take on No Man’s Sky. Announced during the E3 PC Gaming Show, it takes place in a single, seamless, fully editable shared universe. You can fly between planets and space, build civilizations, and explore a nearly infinite universe. Can developer Novaquark pull it off? Who knows.

SUPERHOT VR gets a new Oculus Touch trailer. Should be pretty cool—the non-VR game is great—though I’ll be curious whether or not you can move around within levels. They call it a “complete new title” and say it’ll debut with Oculus Touch later this year.

Don’t Starve studio Klei Entertainment just announced Oxygen Not Included, a “space-colony simulation game” that looks right up their wacky danger-sim alley. More details and screens over at the game’s Steam page.

Microsoft just announced that Crackdown 3, not present at this morning’s E3 press conference, has been delayed into 2017. In delaying the game, they confirmed it’ll be an Xbox Play Anywhere title, which means buying it on Xbox One means you’ll get a copy on Windows 10, too.

The previously leaked Halo Wars 2 open beta is official. During their E3 conference, Microsoft showed gameplay footage and announced that the beta will run from today until June 20th. The game’s full release has been pushed to February 2017.

Today Microsoft announced some much-requested new features for Xbox Live including clubs for organizing with other players, an integrated looking for group tool, and an “Arena” system for multiplayer tournaments.
