Before Gamescom, there have been several updates as to what people can expect for Battlefield 4. You already know about the Battlelog or the fact that levolution is something you clearly will experience once you get into the game. Or that it's running on Frostbite 3 Engine and has destructible environments.

But what has gotten a lot of fans to look forward to the launch on October is the massive multiplayer, and EA has already announced that it will be opening beta as early as October for the current-gen PS3 and Xbox 360, as well as the PC.

How do you get in? According to CVG, Battlefield 3 Premium members will have exclusive access to the beta for the first three days. To be a Battle 3 Premium member, you would have needed to preorder the Battlefield 4 Digital Deluxe or owned the Medal of Honor Warfighter Limited Edition or Digital Deluxe edition.

Aside from this, it was already announced that a $50 membership scheme will allow give you Battlefield 4 Premium access, which also gives you early access to five expansion packs, namely the Second Assault, China Rising, Naval Strike, Dragon's Teeth and Final Stand, though the last two will be available in the summer of 2014.

"With Battlefield 4 Premium, we continue to roll out the red carpet, treating out fans like VIPs with a massive amount of new gameplay, exclusive new content, and even more benefits at an incredible value," said Patrick Bach, executive producer, to CVG.

By this, he means that there will be weekly content, personalisation options, bonus battlepacks filled with ammos and other consumables.

Halo 4's newest add-on is out on Xbox Live

The Halo 4 journey is just going to get started once more with the Champions Bundle now released as a DLC pack. With this bundle, you get two new support upgrades, namely the Recharge to decrease time for recharging shields, and Survivor to get you out of the vehicle before it explodes, according to a press release obtained by Joystiq.

The Champions Bundle also includes in it three DLC packs, the Steel Skin Pack, the Bullseye Pack, and the Infinity Armor Pack, which can be purchased separately, though you'll be missing out on bonus content as opposed to buying it as a done deal.

In his blog, Major Nelson already posted the availability of the Halo 4 Champions Bundle Game add-on, worth 800 MS Points on the Xbox Live.

Aside from the three DLC packs, you also get new ways to personalise your character via five armour skins, five weapons skins, and eight Spartan stances for the player card. You can make your purchase here.

Diablo 3 goes into the realm of monsters

There's more to Diablo 3 this time around as Blizzard officially announced Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls, a new expansion for the game.

This time, expect more Crusader class, increased level caps, and a new boss enemy in the form of Malthael. Polygon reports that this new boss is a fallen angel of death who leads his own legion, with plans on the demon and human race.

New monsters are also to be expected, from seraphs to Death Maidens, as well as a new system for better loot. Several endgame choices are also being experimented on by the developer, particularly adding loot runs and upgrades to the paragon system to affect characters on a single account.

The release date for the expansion has not yet been detailed, but it seems like Blizzard is working really hard to deliver more gaming experiences for Diablo 3.
