Alongside the launch of the RX 580 and RX 570 video cards, AMD released a new version its Radeon Crimson ReLive software suite. The highlights of edition 17.4.3 are simply driver support for both cards and functionality for the Windows 10 Creators Update.
The previous 17.4.2 driver addressed several issues, such as better multi-GPU performance in Battlefield 1 and improved support for SteamVR asynchronous reprojection. It was also the first driver to support Windows 10 Creators Update features like Game Mode, built-in streaming from Beam, and high dynamic range (HDR) in applications.
The following are the current known issues with the Crimson ReLive 17.4.3 software, as stated in the release notes:
Known Issues

The first teaser trailer for the sequel to Kingsman has arrived, and there's a lot packed into a few short seconds.
If you're looking for a firm understanding of what Kingsman: The Golden Circle's story is all about, you'll walk away disappointed. The meat of the trailer lasts only about five seconds but is jam-packed with blink-and-you'll-miss-it glimpses of what seems like it could be every scene in the movie.
We recently got our first look at many of the film's characters, and this trailer provides another (extremely brief) peek at many of the new additions to the cast. This includes Jeff Bridges, Julianne Moore, Channing Tatum, and Halle Berry, with star Taron Egerton also featured prominently.

As noted in a tweet from Frank Cifaldi, who now heads up the Video Game History Foundation, it's interesting to see how each of the four handles its source material's graphics differently. These range from the Disney approach of preserving the original look to Wonderboy's completely new artwork (though you're free to switch between the new and old look, as is also the case with Full Throttle).
Cifaldi, who worked on Disney Afternoon Collection, also shared some background on its development in subsequent tweets. He explains the process of including certain box and manual art, and he highlights some additions, like new music that plays on each game's Options screen.
Here's the availability for all four games:
The Disney Afternoon Collection (PC, PS4, Xbox One) -- $20
Full Throttle Remastered (PC, PS4, Vita) -- $15
Voodoo Vince Remastered (PC, Xbox One) -- $15
Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap (PS4, Xbox One, Switch; PC coming this summer) -- $20
Publisher EA and developer Respawn have revealed Titanfall 2's next expansion. It's titled A Glitch in the Frontier, and it's coming on April 25.
The DLC--which is free to all players--includes two maps, a faction, another game mode, and more. Take a look at the trailer above for a glimpse at the new content.
The first new map is called Glitch, which EA describes as "a medium-sized map … inspired by Captain Lastimosa's home planet of Harmony." A second arena, named Deck, is specifically for the Live Fire game mode, which was introduced as part of last month's free update.
Also included in the update is a new faction, MRVN, plus a new game mode called Marked for Death. The MRVN could be connected to the in-game MARVIN automated assistants--usually seen as passive, unarmed NPCs--while Marked for Death returns from the first game in the series. Additionally, Pilots can now Regenerate (Titanfall's equivalent of Call of Duty's Prestige mechanic) up to Gen level 100.
Lastly, the main menu sees some cosmetic changes, there's a new Get to the Point execution, and you can now play Live Fire in Private Matches.
Today's reveal comes just hours after EA outlined its plans for Titanfall 2's next three months of updates. Coming soon is a new Titan, more executions, and more paid add-ons in the form of Prime Titans and cosmetic upgrades.
In addition to all of this, Respawn confirmed that it has plans for more Titanfall 2 free trials; the most recent free trial weekend was held in March.
Outside of the Titanfall franchise, Respawn is working on a third-person Star Wars action game that's being directed by God of War veteran Stig Asmussen.
Post-credit sequences are an expected part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, often hinting at characters and storylines from the studio's future releases. Now Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 director James Gunn has revealed that the upcoming space adventure will feature no fewer than five such scenes.
The director provided no further details about what these scenes would contain, but the movie is out in less than a month, so we'll find out soon.
In related news, Gunn also confirmed that he will be returning for a third movie in the series. "Yes, I'm returning to write and direct Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3," he posted on Facebook. "There is a history in Hollywood of haphazard endings to trilogies, and I didn't want to become a part of that dishonorable tradition of pretending the third one doesn't exist.
"In the end, my love for [the characters] goes deeper than you guys can possibly imagine, and I feel they have more adventures to go on and things to learn about themselves and the wonderful and sometimes terrifying universe we all inhabit. And, like in both Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, we will work on creating the story that goes beyond what you expect."
Ubisoft has released a new trailer that shows off Ghost Recon: Wildlands' first expansion, Narco Road, which is out today for those who own the game's $40 season pass. Alternatively, it launches April 25 for everyone else, priced at $15 by itself.
Narco Road tasks you with infiltrating three gangs of smugglers led by kingpin El Invisible. "Players will have to go undercover and work their way up the ranks and earn the trust of the mysterious leader if they have any hope of bringing him to justice," says Ubisoft. The DLC, like the main game, is playable in solo or co-op, and you can catch a glimpse of the action in the trailer above.
There are 15 "fast-paced" missions in Narco Road, as well as four new types of side missions. You can gain fame and influence by completing these missions; earn enough and you'll get a chance to take down El Invisible.
Additionally, Narco Road comes with four outfits, nine weapons, and four vehicles types: monster trucks, muscle cars, motorcycles, and planes.
Last week, the game received a new patch in preparation for today's expansion. The update also included a bunch of bug fixes and balance tweaks, as well as a set of weekly challenges that start anew every Wednesday.
Wildlands received mixed reviews upon its release last month. Our critic called the open-world game "a middlingly safe tactical shooter and a slightly wasted opportunity," though he did praise its "seemingly boundless map" and its mission diversity. Read more in our full Ghost Recon: Wildlands review.
Code Vein is described as a "dungeon exploration-type, hard action RPG" in the latest issue of Japanese publication Famitsu (as translated by Gematsu). It's in development by the same team responsible for the God Eater series.
Set in a post-apocalyptic near future, players assume the role of a Revenant. These are superpowered vampires who have lost most of their memories and now live as part of a society called Vein. Revenant need blood in order to avoid turning into something called a Lost.
Through the Buddy system, you can take an AI-controlled companion with you as you explore and engage in combat with a variety of swords and other melee weapons.
The full game is apparently still a ways off, with Famitsu reporting it's only 30% complete at this point and is not due out until 2018. It runs on Unreal Engine 4 but does not yet have any confirmed platforms.
More details on Code Vein should arrive soon; when Bandai Namco first teased the game last week, it said to expect an announcement on April 20.
Guerrilla Games has revealed a new update for its PlayStation 4 exclusive, Horizon Zero Dawn. The patch goes live today, introducing a load of bug fixes and a couple of new features.

Horizon Zero Dawn launched on February 28 in the US before coming to Europe on March 1. The game received widespread critical acclaim, including a 9/10 from GameSpot.

The first features Katherine Waterston, playing Daniels, while the second focuses on Billy Crudup's character, Oram. Check them out below:
"There will be another one before we kind of literally and logically, clockwise, back into the rear back head of [the original] Alien," he said last month.

A new update has arrived for Torment: Tides of Numenera that purports to fix the game's performance problems, among other issues.

Fixes many freezes that would happen in various situations.
Numerous performance optimizations.
Addendum text now appears on item descriptions. Dozens of items have more detailed descriptions depending on your lore skills and other factors.
