It’s been quite a week for Destiny 2 fans. First, there was the launch of the Season of Opulence and its new activities and raid. Then there was Bungie’s gigantic rundown of information about Destiny 2’s next chapter, including Shadowkeep, its fall expansion, and the upcoming addition of cross-save capability that’ll let you transfer your characters between platforms. We almost forgot that Friday means a visit from Exotics vendor Xur, his first of the new season. Here’s where to find Xur right now and all of the Exotic items he’s selling.

Those of us steeped in Destiny 2 lore might wonder if Xur’s location this week implies something more significant about the Nine, a group of entities whose were a major part of last season’s story, and their relationship with the Cabal emperor. You’ll find Xur on Nessus, hanging out on Calus’s barge near quest-giver Werner 99-40. This week he’s got Sweet Business, an Exotic auto rifle that sprays tons of bullets from its 99-round magazine and gives you bonus accuracy when you fire from the hip.

Hunters are the lucky ones if you’re still trying to pick up newer Exotics: Xur is offering Sixth Coyote, the only Year Two Exotic in his bag this week. The chest armor gives you a second dodge charge, which can be very handy in the Crucible. For Warlocks, there’s Karnstein Armlets, which give you health back when you land melee kills. Finally, Titans can snag Ashen Wake, a set of gloves that increase the throw speed of your Fusion grenades and make them detonate on impact.

Xur Exotics For June 7-11

• Sweet Business (Exotic auto rifle) — 29 Legendary Shards
• Ashen Wake (Exotic Titan gauntlets) — 23 Legendary Shards
• The Sixth Coyote (Exotic Hunter chest armor) — 23 Legendary Shards
• Karnstein Armlets (Exotic Warlock gauntlets) — 23 Legendary Shards

If Xur’s inventory doesn’t interest, you can also buy a Fated Engram, if you can afford it. Dropping 97 Legendary Shards on the item will grant you one Year One Exotic you don’t already have for that character. 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.

And if you haven’t finished all of Xur’s Invitations of the Nine from the Season of the Drifter, you can snag one of those as well. The bounty was new in Season of the Drifter, dispensing Powerful gear rewards, a bit of story about the Nine and the Drifter, and a lore drop.

Sony may be bowing out of E3 this year, but they are certainly not letting us forget them with all of the huge savings available as part of their Days of Play sale, the latest of which is a PlayStation 4 Pro console including seven free games by way of B&H Photo for $350. The PS4 Pro itself typically retails for $400 alone, so $50 off and then seven free games on top of that is an excellent deal, which B&H lists as $132.93 in total savings.

During its big Google Stadia event today, Google announced 30 titles for the streaming service, including Borderlands 3, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Baldur’s Gate 3, Metro Exodus, and Wolfenstein: Youngblood. The company announced 30 titles in all, and it announced partnerships with other studios, like Rockstar Games, that haven’t revealed which of their titles will come to Stadia.

It appears the next wave of Stadia game announcements will come during Gamescom in August–and possibly sooner during E3 2019. “We’ll have more game-related news to share at Gamescom,” reads a tweet from Stadia.

Additionally, the tweet mentioned that other publishers will announce Stadia support for their own titles “throughout E3 and beyond.”

Google Stadia boss Phil Harrison said during the event that Google is working with “hundreds” of publishers and developers to bring their titles to Stadia. A graphic shown during the stream, which you can see above, shows that publishers like Electronic Arts, 2K Games, Rockstar Games, Sega, Warner Bros., Capcom, and Square Enix are some of the other partners.

Nearly every genre of video game will be available on Stadia, including RPG, sports, racing, fighting, first-person, and more.

Google Stadia launches in November in 14 countries, including the USA, UK, and Canada. It is a streaming service that allows you to play games on your computer or phone. A Stadia Pro subscription costs $10/month, and that gets you access to a library of titles with others available to buy individually. A $130 Founder’s Edition comes with a Chromecast UItra, a Stadia controller, three months of Stadia Pro for you and a friend.
