From Sony we have the list of the games that will be present in the new PlayStation Plus and thanks to this we have discovered Ubisoft + Classics, a new subscription included in the Extra and Premium options. For Nintendo this has been a very quiet week but with remarkable news: Saudi Arabia has bought 5% of the company’s shares for 2,855 million euros. For those interested in free games, the Epic Games Store has started its sales by giving away Borderlands 3.
In technology, an Acer event has left us with a carousel of news that includes new 27-inch IPS gaming monitors, the Predator Helios 300 SpatialLabs laptop, and a Swift 3 with an OLED panel. For its part, Amazon has updated the Fire 7 tablet, which now has USB-C and up to 10 hours of battery life. On the Internet, the purchase of Twitter has become a soap opera starring Elon Musk, while Disney + has detailed that the subscription with advertising will show 4 minutes of ads for each hour of content.
