Where Is Xur? Destiny 2 Location, Exotics, And Invitation Of The Nine Guide (May 17-21)
Destiny 2‘s Season the Drifter is quickly coming to an end. The season’s last Exotic, Outbreak Perfected, is out in the wild, and we’re currently seeing the final Iron Banner before the Season of Opulence starts on June 4 and brings new content for Annual Pass holders. And with his arrival this weekend, Xur brings not only another stash of Exotic weapons and armor, but the final Invitation of the Nine, completing the story of the Drifter and the Emissary. Unfortunately, at least one of those Exotics has a nerf coming its way.
Head to Titan if you’re looking for Xur. He’s hanging out on The Rig in a small building to the north of the spawn point. Ride your sparrow until you’ve got water on your left, then head into the low building to your left to find Xur inside. He’s offering D.A.R.C.I. this week, an Exotic sniper rifle that gives you information on enemies when you aim down the sights at them with its Personal Assistant perk, and which amps up the damage you do when Personal Assistant is active.
For armor, Xur offers Celestial Nighthawk helmet for Hunters, which gives you one high-damage shot for your Golden Gun Super, rather than several weaker shots. It also makes enemies explode, and killing enemies with your Golden Gun gets you Super energy back. Titans get the Ursa Furiosa gauntlets, which give you Super energy back based on how much damage you absorb with your Sentinel Shield Super, and gives you faster movement speed when you’re using it. Finally, for Warlocks, there’s Geomag Stabilizers, a set of boots that increase the duration of your Chaos Reach Super as you do damage with it. You can also sometimes get Super energy for sprinting.
Here are all the Exotics Xur offers this week and what they’ll cost you:
- D.A.R.C.I. (Exotic sniper rifle) — 29 Legendary Shards
- Ursa Furiosa (Exotic Titan gauntlets) — 23 Legendary Shards
- Celestial Nighthawk (Exotic Hunter helmet) — 23 Legendary Shards
- Geomag Stabilizers (Exotic Warlock leg armor) — 23 Legendary Shards
If nothing Xur has strikes your fancy, you can also purchase a Fated Engram from Xur. Thanks to a recent update, Fated Engrams can now dish out Exotics from the Forsaken expansion, as well as from the original Year One group (but not from the Black Armory or the Jokers Wild expansions). Grabbing one of the engrams gives you a random Exotic that you don’t already have–if you can afford it. Fated Engrams will run you 97 Legendary Shards, and you can only get one per account each week. Xur also offers the Five of Swords challenge card for free, which allows you to add difficulty modifiers that increase your score in Nightfall runs.
Finally, this Xur visit marks the arrival of the final Invitation of the Nine weekly bounty, which you can also snag one from Xur. Completing these gives you a Powerful gear drop, as well as a bit of story about the Nine and the Drifter and a new Lore entry that fills in the history of the Emissary of the Nine. Unlike the other bounties that have had players visiting planets and completing Strikes, this one takes you to the Crucible to play through nine different matches. If you’re not finished with your older Invitations, you can still complete one per week until you’ve received them all. Be sure to finish the bounty by Thursday’s daily reset, or you won’t be able to grab a fresh bounty from Xur on Friday.

Pokemon Go Week-Long Raid Event Announced, Features Two Shiny Pokemon
Pokemon Go‘s next Community Day is this weekend, but that isn’t the only event on the horizon. Niantic has announced it is holding an Extraordinary Raid Week for the mobile game beginning Tuesday, May 21, and it’ll give players a chance to earn special bonuses for participating in Raids–and even catch a couple of Shiny Pokemon.
The Extraordinary Raid Week kicks off at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET / 9 PM BST and runs until the same time the following Tuesday, May 28. During that week, new Pokemon will be featured as Raid bosses. Bronzor, for instance, will appear in Tier 1 Raids, and you may even come across its Shiny form, while the rare Clampearl will be one of the possible Tier 2 Raid bosses. On top of that, you’ll receive twice the usual amount of Stardust and XP for participating in Raids.
There are also a couple of dedicated events within the broader Raid week. On Wednesday, May 22, Niantic will host a special Raid Hour from 6-7 PM local time, during which there will be more Raids occurring than usual. Then on Saturday, May 25, a special Lapras Raid will occur from 11 AM-2 PM local time. During that time, Lapras will appear as a Raid boss, and you may even come across a Shiny one. Additionally, you’ll receive up to five Raid Passes from Gyms during the event. You can find more details on the Pokemon Go website.
In the meantime, the next Pokemon Go Community Day takes place this Sunday, May 19. The featured Pokemon this month is Torchic, the Fire-type starter from Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire. If you manage to evolve it into a Blaziken up to an hour after the event ends, it’ll learn the powerful Fire attack Blast Burn. On top of that, you’ll receive triple the normal amount of Stardust for catching Pokemon during the Community Day.
The Legendary Gen 4 lake trio Azelf, Mesprit, and Uxie are also still available in the game. Each one is appearing as a Raid battle in certain parts of the world until May 27. Azelf is currently available in the Americas and Greenland; Mesprit is spawning across Europe, Africa, and the Middle East; and Uxie is appearing in the Asia-Pacific region.

E3 2019: All The Ubisoft Games Confirmed (So Far)
E3 2019 is almost upon us, the time of year when publishers announce and promote their biggest games. Ubisoft has already started to lay the groundwork with one announcement, but it appears to have much more to come on top of that.
Ubisoft’s press conference will take place on Monday, June 10 at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET, sandwiched between Limited Run Games and Square Enix. You can check out the full press conference schedule for full details.
The company already announced one of its big games for this fall, Ghost Recon Breakpoint. That game is coming in October, so E3 promises to be our first in-depth look at the game. Ubisoft also announced it has three more triple-A games releasing by March 31, 2020. It hasn’t detailed what those are, but they’re very likely to be announced at E3.
Ubisoft stressed that those three games make up a diverse catalog for the next fiscal year, which means we may see very different genres represented. One of them could be a new Just Dance title, as Ubisoft has often shown those off at E3. We already know that one of the games won’t be Skull & Bones, the pirate combat game. Ubisoft recently pushed it to next year.
Make sure to check out all of GameSpot’s coverage of E3 2019 for the latest breaking news as we approach the show.

PS3/PS4 Exclusives Heavy Rain, Beyond, And Detroit Get PC Release Dates
Since 2010, developer Quantic Dream only released games for the PlayStation family of consoles. But that’s changing this year when the studio launches Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls, and Detroit: Become Human on PC through the Epic Games Store.
The French studio has now confirmed release dates for each title. Heavy Rain will debut first on June 24 for $20 USD. Beyond: Two Souls will follow on July 22 for $20 USD, with Detroit: Become Human, the newest release, launching sometime this Fall 2019 for $40 USD.
Each title will also have a “sizeable” free demo available about a month before the full release. Here is the full release schedule:
Heavy Rain
- Demo: May 24
- Full Release: June 24
Beyond: Two Souls
- Demo: June 27
- Full Release: July 22
Detroit: Become Human
- Demo: Summer
- Full Release: Fall
Each title is available to pre-order now on the Epic Games Store. The titles will be released on other digital PC stores later, but no official announcements have been made at this point.
Quantic is going through big changes. Though it was never owned by Sony, the company exclusively released its games on Sony machines since 2010 with Heavy Rain. Now, the company is working on a new IP that will come to multiple platforms, while it’s taken on NetEase as a minority stakeholder to help fund its “future technologies.”
“We are so grateful for twelve fantastic years of collaboration with Sony Interactive Entertainment and all they have allowed us to create and produce,” Quantic Dream co-CEO Guillaume de Fondaumiere said in a statement. “With this new partnership with Epic, we can now expand our products to a wider fan base and allow PC players to enjoy our titles.”

E3 2019 : All The Activision Games Confirmed So Far
E3 2019 is just a few weeks away. Surprisingly, Activision hasn’t announced the name of the Call of Duty it will show off during E3, something the company traditionally does prior to the show in mid- to late May. But we do know Activision will be showcasing 2019’s Call of Duty at E3, whatever it may be.
So far, Call of Duty is all Activision has planned for E3. Granted, the company doesn’t need to announce anything else. Clues have been hinting that the upcoming Call of Duty will be Modern Warfare 4, a sequel to one of the franchise’s most popular series. If that’s all Activision has for E3 2019, that’ll be enough.
Activision has no scheduled E3 press conference, so the next Call of Duty will most likely premiere outside of any show. Sony won’t be holding a press conference during E3 this year, and they’re usually the one to host Call of Duty announcements.
Activision does have a few more games scheduled for 2019: Crash Team Racing and Call of Duty: Mobile. However, neither has been confirmed for E3. They could be shown off, though.
We don’t know too much about 2019’s Call of Duty. Even its name is still unknown. Infinity Ward has been confirmed as the developer behind the new game though. Five former Infinity Ward developers–most of which went on to work with Respawn on Titanfall and Titanfall 2 after finishing Modern Warfare 3–have returned to the studio to work on the new Call of Duty. Unlike last year’s Black Ops 4, 2019’s Call of Duty will have a traditional single-player campaign. Activision has confirmed 2019’s Call of Duty will have a “huge expansive multiplayer world” and “fun co-op gameplay,” but did not clarify any further. The game is already in a playable state.
The one and only Activision game confirmed for E3 2019 has been listed below. If additional Activision titles are announced prior to or during E3, we’ll update the list.

E3 2019: All The Bethesda Games Confirmed (So Far)
E3 2019 is just around the corner. The annual trade show returns on June 11, but before then, a number of the industry’s biggest publishers will hold press conferences showcasing some of the new games they have in the pipeline. That includes Bethesda, which confirmed it is hosting its own E3 press conference again this year just a couple of days ahead of the expo proper.
This year, Bethesda’s press conference takes place on Sunday, June 9, a few hours after Microsoft’s E3 Xbox One briefing. The presentation is set to kick off at 5:30 PM PT / 8:30 PM ET (1:30 AM BST on June 10) and will be broadcast online for viewers at home via Bethesda’s Twitch channel and other places.
As for what we can expect from the conference, Bethesda has been very tight-lipped. During last year’s briefing, the publisher unveiled a number of huge titles, including Rage 2, Doom Eternal, The Elder Scrolls VI, and a brand-new property, Starfield. So far the publisher has only confirmed that Doom Eternal will have a presence at this year’s conference, but it certainly won’t be the only game the company shows off. We know DLC for Rage 2 is on the way, so we may get our first glimpse at that during this year’s briefing.
However, two titles we can safely rule out are Starfield and Elder Scrolls VI. Last month, Bethesda’s Todd Howard confirmed that neither title will be at this year’s show. According to the company, last year’s reveals were just a “sneak peak” at the technology it’s been working on, and that both Starfield and ES6 are still a ways off, so we’ll likely need to wait a little longer to get more details about those games.
Be sure to check out GameSpot’s full coverage of E3 2019 for the latest breaking news. You can also see what all the other publishers have lined up for this year’s show in the full E3 conference schedule.
