Time to get your daily dose of all things gaming related! And some Star Wars too! The mules are hard at work for you to bring you the daily Mulehorn Gaming Rapid Fire News for January 18, 2017!
Star Wars
For you Star Wars Rebels fans, this is a great look at what we got coming in the next few episodes.
Star Wars Battlefront is getting another patch. Check out all the details here.
I can’t pass on some Star Wars lore. Here is some interesting information on how Luke got his green lightsaber.
Injustice 2
This trailer is pretty awesome!
Mass Effect Andromeda
Tons of little bits of information coming out for Mass Effect Andromeda. One of those bits of information is crafting in Andromeda. This is exciting, as I would love to customize the look and feel of my armor like you can in Dragon Age Inquisition. Included in this information dump about crafting is that you can craft your own melee weapons. Oh, and did we mention you can name your weapons? Because, you can.
PRO TIP: In MEA, you can craft your own krogan-style hammer and name it GRABTHAR'S HAMMER.
That one's free, folks. #space

We also have more information on the single player and crossing over to multiplayer.
Yup! And it's possible to earn sp rewards in the process. 🙂 (mp doesn't impact sp's story like in me3, though)

World of Warcraft
All good things must come to an end. The OG servers are going down.
Wizards of The Coast
Read up on some interesting news that Wizards of the Coast is investing in video games.
Nintendo
A little disappointing news about Nintendo. No Netflix or other multimedia at launch.
The Nintendo Switch won’t have many multimedia functions at launch, Business Insider reports. According to Nintendo’s Kit Ellis, this is because the Switch is intended to be a “dedicated gaming machine,” and thus won’t have Netflix and other stream services day one.
On the one hand, it’s interesting and reassuring that Nintendo is taking a different, more game-focused approach than Microsoft (and to a lesser extent, Sony), with the company’s mindset of an “all in one” console. On the other hand, if the Switch did provide multimedia services, it would provide a potentially cheaper (if less fancy) alternative to tablets, and offer owners an extra potential activity during their commutes. Even so, it’s nice to see that Nintendo is concentrated on games first and foremost.
Back to good news for Nintendo, we may see more Zelda games. Rumor has it there may be one after Breath of the Wild.
PlayStation and Xbox
The Culling is coming to Xbox. Read up on it here.
For PlayStation we have Perception coming soon.
