AMD to invest $400 million in India by 2028: Here’s what we know

US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India’s nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub. AMD said it will open its new design centre campus in Bengaluru by end of this year and create 3,000 new engineering roles within five years. “Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide,” Papermaster said.

Apex Legends Season 8 to kick off tomorrow: New map, character, gun and more

Respawn Entertainment is going to kick-off Apex Legends Season 8, titled Mayhem, tomorrow, ie February 2. The company has not provided us with an exact time of the release, however, it is expected to drop at some point in the evening.

There is plenty of hype surrounding the launch of Season 8 as it will include a new character, the “bomb-tastic new legend Fuse”, a heavily redesigned King’s Canyon map, a new weapon, legend buffs, changes to matchmaking, ranked play and more.

Apex Legends Season 8: What’s new

Apex Legends Season 8 will introduce a new weapon for the first time since Season 6. This will be a new semi-auto heavy weapon, which will be called 30-30 Repeater. The new weapon will fire faster than a Longbow but slower than a G7, while maintaining the bullet drop count of the G7. It will also have the ability to charge up and will allow each shot to do roughly 35 percent more damage.

Electronic Arts (EA) has confirmed that with the arrival of Fuse, the King’s Canyon map will be dramatically reshaped. As Salvo’s attempt to kill Fuse for betraying the planet by joining the Syndicates has obliterated King’s Canyon. This will also mark the return of the King’s Canyon map, which was absent for most of Season 7, due to player complaints about balancing issues.

Respawn has also announced that Ranked Points (RP) will now be dealt out to the top 13 in a match instead of the top 10. More points will be provided for kills and assists. The time window for assists will also be increased from 7 seconds to 10 seconds. Apart from these changes, there will be improvements to the ranked matchmaking also.

Diamond trails will also be making a return at the end of Season 8. Rampart’s tactical wall will now have HP while building, thus helping it not get destroyed mid-build. Wraith on the other hand will get a hitbox adjustment.
