We get our first official and unofficial look at OnePlus' first tablet, the OnePlus Pad. The company is scheduled to unveil the OnePlus 11 internationally on February 7. And it looks like the OnePlus Pad will make its debut on the same day. The event teaser image for the US shows a new banner image with the upcoming phone and earbuds placed on top of the tablet. Another image from its Indian page shows a camera bump on the OnePlus Pad similar to the OnePlus 11's camera. It also shows the tablet in a green colour option.

Leaked images from OnLeaks and MySmartPrice also show off more renders of the tablet expected to sport an 11.6-inch display and metal unibody chassis.

'Dead Space' skin on 'Fortnite' out with Isaac Clarke, exclusive in-game challenges

Source: Epic Games

Fortnite brings more Gaming Legends into the game. And this time, it celebrates the remake of the original Dead Space game with Isaac Clarke introduced into the Fortnite island. Unlike your typical collaboration sets, you'll need to pay US$12 (around CA$16) for the Dead Space bundle. But that gets you the Isaac Clarke skin, two reactive back blings (including his iconic RIG that shows your health meter and a model of the USG Ishimura), a Plasma Cutter pickaxe, and some V-Bucks, too.

The Cutter comes with an emote that you can use to conjure the weapon in the middle of a battle even if you have a different pickaxe equipped. It works similarly to the emotes for Doctor Strange's magic sword or Wolverine's claws. This bundle also gives you the Strange Transmissions quests, which can grant you a total of 1,500 V-Bucks if you complete a few days worth of daily bonus goals.

The latest firmware update for Razer's Kishi V2 mobile gaming controller and the Razer Nexus app allows it to support games that were previously touchscreen-only on Android (like Genshin Impact and Marvel Snap). You can access the new feature through the free Nexus app, which lets you remap controller inputs to touchscreen control. The Razer Nexus app is also a centralized hub to launch games and stream them on platforms like Facebook Live or YouTube.

There's no concrete launch window for a rollout to iOS, but the Virtual Controller Mode is coming to the Razer Edge tablet controller sometime in Q1 2023.
