The master rapper Eminem remains tight lipped about his upcoming full-length studio album, but the good news is, fans can hear a couple of brand-new tracks in his newly updated game app called "Shady Wars."

Eminem recently announced on Twitter and Instagram that his game app "Shady Wars" received a revamping and it will feature "a bunch of new tracks." One of the fresh tracks in the game is the song "Berzerk" for the upcoming film "Why Him?" The app can be downloaded for free on iOS and Android devices.

The gameplay of the app includes three levels — Rap Pr, Rap Star, and Rap God — which players can achieve. Players must catch the lyrics of Eminem's songs and collect coins without getting hit by drones.

Meanwhile, breakthrough artist and "Stitches" singer Shawn Mendes just recently expressed his interest to work with One Direction's Niall Horan and Eminem. He told Hollywood Life, "I'd also love to work with Eminem one day — that's a big one for me." After that statement, rumors then circulated that the 17-year-old singer might have a chance to work with the "Love the Way You Lie" rapper.

Since there is still no official news for Eminem's new album, there are several speculations online. According to new reports, Eminem could be facing some financial problems that is why there is still no new material from him.

However, other reports revealed that the rapper must be focusing more on other projects and commitments at the moment.

Last month, he had a partnership with online trading market for limited-edition products called StockX. He will be selling his limited edition sneakers from his personal collection. "Sneakers have always been a huge interest of mine, for at least as long as I've been rapping, and I'm proud of the fact that I've had so many collaborations with Nike and Jordan Brand," Eminem said in a press release. "I really like the fact that sneakers are a big part of what StockX is doing."
