Battlefield 4‘s latest DLC, Naval Strike, is available on Xbox One for Premium subscribers as of today, Electronic Arts confirms. The content pack launched for Premium folks on PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and Xbox 360 on March 25, but both the PC and Xbox One versions were delayed due to separate issues that needed to be addressed before a release could happen. The PC DLC is still targeted for “early April,” but there’s no specific date for it yet.

As with all Battlefield Premium releases, there’s a two-week window of early-access exclusivity before the packs are available to one and all for purchase. In the case of the PS3/PS4 and Xbox 360 versions, that’s April 8. For the Xbox One, it’s probably April 10 (the DLC started to come online yesterday, March 27). And for the PC, well … we’ll have to wait and see, won’t we?

The Naval Strike pack adds four new maps, a new Carrier Assault multiplayer mode, and an assortment of other knickknacks like weapons, gadgets, assignments, and a vehicle. It’s the third of five planned content packs for the 2013 shooter, following China Rising and Second Assault. All of those releases were delayed following in what is best characterized as a disastrous launch for BF4, which was plagued by server issues and other bugs.

Marvel Snap devs vow to fix one of its biggest problems in 2025

Key art for the Surtur season of Marvel Snap.

Marvel Snap developer Second Dinner has outlined its 2025 plans to fix one of the biggest problems plaguing the collectible card game.

Marvel Snap has been my most-played game of each year since its May 2022 beta release. While I still play the game daily, I, as well as many others, have had growing frustrations with the game this year. Modes like Deadpool's Diner have been disappointing, but more importantly, acquiring new cards has become extremely frustrating. A new Marvel Snap card comes out every week, but players earn tokens to purchase them at an extremely slow rate. Spotlight caches that contain new cards get filled with unhelpful fodder or duplicates that grant only 1,000 tokens, while "Series Drops" that make existing cards easier to acquire typically only happen to cards that aren't meta-relevant.
