Deep Rock Galactic Rogue Core is the long-awaited sequel to one of the best co-op shooters of the modern era. While the gameplay loop, aesthetics, and mechanics of Rogue Core are similar to the original game, the developers have implemented a number of changes to make it a different and more challenging experience. So, whether you're a veteran of Deep Rock Galactic or a fresh player, chances are that you might need some help in the early going of Rogue Core. Fortunately, to help you survive as a dwarf against alien hordes, we have come up with eight beginner tips that aim to get you through the first few hours of the game and set you up for countless runs in the future. Go With The Guardian Class First In the early access build of Deep Rock Galactic Rogue Core, there are five available classes to choose from. Each of these classes feature their own pros and cons, but the Guardian class is the one you want to start out with. 
Guardian is a tanky class with a terrific AoE ability that's perfect for learning the basics in Rogue Core. The class makes it harder to die and can also sustain longer runs when playing in a team, thanks to its armor-restoring ability. Once you understand the basics of the Guardian class, you can move on to other classes in Rogue Core that call for a higher skill ceiling. Never Pass Up A Chance To Upgrade One of the new elements in Rogue Core is the ability to upgrade your character during the middle of a run. While it seems obvious that you'll want to interact with a Workbench or mine some Expenite, it can sometimes be difficult to prioritize them when you're fighting the clock. 
To avoid that scenario, you want to take care of any upgrade-related matters prior to engaging with enemies in a new wave. Even when you're deep into runs, you still want to mine Expenite and keep finding Workbenches and Toolboxes, as these can save your life when the enemies start to hit harder and harder in later waves. Value Your Ammunition Your loadout in Rogue Core is extremely important, as you usually want weapons that behave differently so you can use each to its fullest potential. However, your weapons don't matter whatsoever if you can't keep them stocked with ammo. There are Ammo Crates throughout the different maps, but you can only interact with a limited number of them during a run. To get the most out of these crates, you want to wait until your guns are almost out of ammunition. This way, you refill both of your ammo caches and get the most out of your existing ammo. Of course, if you're extremely low on armor or need ammo for a specific gun, use a crate if necessary, but more often than not, you want to save your restock until it's most beneficial. Target Enemy Weak Spots One thing you'll notice right away in Rogue Core is that enemies can hit extremely hard. This can make solo play much more challenging compared to the original Deep Rock Galactic and adds a new layer of strategy to co-op runs. While enemies will always hit hard, you can eliminate them much faster if you target their weak spots. There are certain weapons you can loot during runs that specifically target an enemy's weak spot, and these weapons should be prioritized over most others you'll find. When you're just shooting an enemy without weak spot damage, you'll notice that it takes much longer to kill them, which leads to more deaths. Don't Skip The Side Content At the start of a run in Rogue Core, your primary objective is to make it as far as possible. However, to aid you in that goal, you can also complete side objectives called "Intel Tasks." 
While these aren't mandatory to complete, you want to try to finish as many as you can. These reward you with upgrade points that increase your overall level, gaining you access to additional levels, tasks, and more content. You Don't Always Have To Carry Toolboxes Toolboxes are one of the primary ways to upgrade your character and weapons during a run. You need to find a Workbench and then use the Toolbox locator to find the Toolbox in a random spot on the map. Once you find a Toolbox, you then need to lug it back to the Workbench to secure the upgrade from it. Normally, this involves your character carrying the Toolbox in one hand, which limits your mobility and weapon usage. However, if you don't want to manually transport the Toolbox, there are a couple of different ways to get it out of your hands. The first is simply handing the Toolbox off to Cooper, which is only possible while playing solo. If you're playing in a team, you can throw the Toolbox from place to place by pressing your fire button with it equipped. You'll still have to carry the Toolbox to the Workbench eventually, but throwing it around allows you to deal with any enemies or move faster during the process. Use Different Kinds Of Weapons In your loadout, you can equip two total weapons. Which weapons you equip is totally up to you, and at the start of a run, you won't have many options, considering you begin with nothing equipped. As you go along, though, you want to try to equip two weapons that behave differently from each other. 
If you manage to find a great long-range weapon early on, then your next weapon should excel at something else, such as dealing serious close-range damage, specializing in a type of elemental damage, etc. Of course, you can also pair weapons that match your class, but having the ability to swap between weapons with different traits is going to be extremely beneficial when dealing with hordes of enemies. Abilities Are Always Reliable While your weapons will be what you use a majority of the time when fighting enemies, you don't want to forget about your abilities either. It's easy to only think about what weapon to use when there are two dozen plus enemies coming at you, but your class's abilities are often a better way to deal damage or escape a sticky situation. Of course, each ability has a cooldown after you use it, so you need to be smart about when to pop them. As long as you understand your class and get some play time in with it, though, you'll develop a sixth sense about the best situations for each ability.

Games sure have been getting delayed a lot over the last several years, and that continues in 2026. The game you've been looking forward to playing might just not be ready by its initially announced launch date. To help keep everything organized, we've made a list of every game delayed right now, including those with delays announced weeks, months, or even years ago. Once a game has been released, it will be removed from this list. 
Grand Theft Auto VI We all knew this was coming, if we're really being honest with ourselves. Initially planned to launch later this year, GTA 6 was later pushed back to May 2026 before again being delayed a full six months to November 19, 2026. Rockstar cited a need to add more polish as the reason for the delay. Featured in this image

Crytek announced in early 2025 that development of the next Crysis has been put on hold, with the studio suffering significant layoffs as it focuses its attention on Hunt: Showdown 1896. It's unclear if or when the game will resume development. Featured in this image

The franchise reboot Fable was planned to launch in 2025, and then was delayed again to February 2027. This move seemed to be made in order to avoid direct competition with GTA 6.

It's almost the start of a new month, so you know what that means -- new Lego sets are about to drop. As usual, Lego will release an eclectic batch of new sets on June 1. These new kits range widely across many different IPs, like Bluey and Star Wars to Marvel and even Shrek. But there are also a handful of new first-party sets, like the ever-popular Botanicals line and some creative new 3-in-1 builds. And while the majority of June's drops come out on the first of the month, there are couple massive display sets on available just a few days later on June 4. There are two, and they're both incredibly detailed recreations of some iconic locations. The Disneyland Main Street USA set for $400, which features the timeless build up to Disney's first park. Then there's the Lord of the Rings Minas Tirith build for $650, which will be one of the largest sets in history at 8,278 pieces. All of these sets are available to preorder now directly through Lego, with some that can be purchased through Amazon as well. And if you're a Lego Insider, you can gain early access to the June 4 sets a day or two early. We've broken down every set below, separated my theme or category, with links to retailers that are currently offering preorders. Lego Star Wars 
June is an uncharacteristically slow month for Star Wars, but it makes sense given that we just had a slew of new releases to help celebrate May the 4th, like the Mandalorian's N-1 Starfighter. You can get an oversized, fully brick-built Darth Vader or an Imperial Remnant AT-RT Driver Helmet for display. Imperial Remnant AT-RT Driver Helmet (#75458, 775 pieces) - $70 Up-Scaled Darth Vader Minifigure (#75461, 1,028 pieces) - $100 Lego Botanicals 
The Botanicals line services a much wider audience than the typical licensed sets we see, and are some of the most fun and intricate builds to get lost in; I even have a few to spruce up my shelves at home. We get three new ones in June -- two smaller builds and a much larger and colorful mushrooms set. Cosmos Flowers (#11514, 171 pieces) - $15 Water Lillies (#11511, 259 pieces) - $30 Woodland Mushrooms (#11505, 806 pieces) - $80 | See at Amazon Lego 3-in-1 Sets 
The Creator 3-in-1 sets are always some of must innovative and inventive in Lego's catalogue. June sees the releases of seven new modular builds, with plenty of different animals, structures, and plants available to create. Art Fashion Bag With Storage (#31391, 272 pieces) - $30 Floral Art Decor Painting (#31390, 348 pieces) - $30 Floral Decor Perfume Bottle (#31383, 286 pieces) - $30 Forest Animals: Gray Wolf (#31393, 657 pieces) - $50 | See at Amazon Iconic Pirate Ship (#31387, 1,074 pieces) - $110 | See at Amazon Wild Animals: Family of Koalas (#31388, 1,536 pieces) - $130 Wild Animals: Majestic Lion (#31386, 839 pieces) - $70 Lego Fortnite 
There have been a nice collection of video game-themed Lego sets over the years, with Fortnite getting a wider selection than most. We're getting four new ones in June, and like the previous kits these all depict iconic locations and characters from the popular battle royale. KIT (#77081, 1,230 pieces) - $110 | See at Amazon Rave Cave (#77082, 1,963 pieces) - $230 | See at Amazon Supply Drop (#77080, 314 pieces) - $45 | See at Amazon Tomatohead (#77079, 210 pieces) - $18 | See at Amazon Lego Marvel 
The Marvel universe is no stranger to receiving the Lego treatment, much like other properties coming out in June, but it's always nice to see Lego revisit certain sets with modernized designs and build techniques, and offer more sets for young ones their Ages 4+ line of sets. For the more hardcore Lego maniacs, the new S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier set is an intricately designed new version of the vessel we've come to know from the movies and comics. We'll get six new Marvel kits on June 1. Loki vs. Team Iron Man (#11211, 204 pieces) - $50 S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrer (#76354, 3,057 pieces) - $400 Spider-Man Hero Figure (#76346, 813 pieces) - $100 Spider-Man Prison Transport Chase (#76349, 367 pieces) - $50 Spider-Man vs. Hulk Epic Clash (#76350, 534 pieces) - $90 Ultron vs. Iron Man (#11209, 96 pieces) - $20 Lego Minecraft 
Minecraft and Lego go together like peanut butter and jelly. We've had a few Minecraft builds over the years, but with how massive of a success the Minecraft Movie was, it makes sense for Lego to dream up some new sets for new and old fans alike. We're getting six new ones come June, each one once again recreating the world fans have been playing for years. Chicken Jockey Desert Attack (#21592, 428 pieces) - $25 The Ender Dragon (#21595, 710 pieces) - $70 Evoker Village Attack (#21596, 607 pieces) - $90 First Night Adventure (#21593, 301 pieces) - $35 Ghast Station (#21597, 754 pieces) - $110 The Skeleton (#21594, 502 pieces) - $40 Lego BrickHeadz 
The BrickHeadz line of Lego sets is a personal favorite of mine. Imagine if you could get a Funko Pop! figure, but build it; that's essentially what these are, and they cover tons of different properties from over the years. Lego is dropping four new ones in June, but I've only listed three here with the last one in the category after this. Alice in Wonderland (#40925, 601 pieces) - $40 Megatron Robot & Vehicle (#40924, 224 pieces) - $25 Toy Story (#40860, 528 pieces) - $40 Lego Shrek 
Shrek is the newest movie to get the brick treatment, and honestly I'm surprised it took this long. We'll be getting two brand new sets for June featuring everyone's favorite green ogre and pals. It feels like only a matter of time until we see Shrek's swamp cottage in brick form. Shrek, Donkey, & Gingy Figures (#40923, 259 pieces) - $25 Shrek, Donkey & Puss in Boots (#72423, 1,403 pieces) - $130 Lego Ninjago 
Ninjago is easily the biggest and most popular ongoing line of sets with original characters, and has spawned plenty of animated movies and TV shows and even a few video games. Ninjago builds are always super detailed and, honestly, look cool as hell. But they also each offer some of the most unique and different minifigure pieces Lego has ever done, like snake-like bodies and rock monster heads. We'll be getting 10 new Ninjago sets in June. Battle at the Dragon's Blade (#71871, 1,016 pieces) - $100 Kai and Cole's Combiner Vehicles (#71864, 394 pieces) - $40 Land Bounty (#71869, 1,214 pieces) - $130 Lloyd's Dragon Mech Battle Pack (#71862, 81 pieces) - $10 The Twin Titan Mechs (#71870, pieces 1,707 pieces) - $140 | See at Amazon Ultra Dragon Battle (#71872, 2,178 pieces) - $200 Wyldfyre's Transforming Dragon Mech (#71868, 821 pieces) - $90 X-1 Ninja Charger 15th Anniversary (#71867, 691 pieces) - $90 Zane's Ice Dragon Battle (#71865, 141 pieces) - $40 Zilvar and Grimtak the Dragon Beast (#718630, 232 pieces) - $20 Lego Harry Potter 
The Wizarding World has been synonymous with Lego since the first movie hit theaters in 2001, and we've seen multiple iterations of iconic scenes, characters, and story moments since then -- we've even gotten a few sets for the prequel/ spin-off films Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. In June, you can expect seven new Harry Potter sets, fitting given the importance of the number 7 in the books. Book Nook: Dumbledore's Office (#76478, pieces 1,182 pieces) - $130 Dobby the Free Elf (#76469, 379 pieces) - $30 Forbidden Forest: Expecto Patronum (#76475, 244 pieces) - $35 Hogwarts Castle: East Wing (#76473, 2,164 pieces) - $270 Hogwarts Herbology Plants (#76474, 817 pieces) - $100 Hogwarts House Crest (#76462, 545 pieces) - $50 Knockturn Alley (#76471, 788 pieces) - $120 Lego Disney 
Disney has also seen its fair share of Lego depictions, using both the regular brick and minifigures and the Friends minifigure style. The massive Disney Castle set is one of the more popular kits around, and the Pirates of the Caribbean sets were a nice callback to some of Lego's earlier days. With June's batch of new Disney sets, we're getting 10 new kits themed around recent movies and Disney princesses. Ariel's Royal Wedding Boat (#43299, 519 pieces) - $70 Beach Fun with Lilo & Stitch (#43280, 113 pieces) - $20 Cinderella Animal Friends Castle (#43283, 149 pieces) - $30 Jasmine's Jewelry Box (#43295, 458 pieces) - $50 Kakamora (#43293, 407 pieces) - $40 Main Street, USA (#43302, 3,899 pieces) - $400 | Releases June 4 Pua (#43292, 885 pieces) - $70 Rapunzel's Castle (#43297, 676 pieces) - $100 Rapunzel's Mini Tower (#43294, 171 pieces) - $20 Stitch & Scrump (#43296, 713 pieces) - $70 Village House & Boat (#43282, 85 pieces) - $20 Lego Speed Champions 
Lego cars are many collector's go-to product line, and the Back to the Future DeLorean from earlier this year is one I couldn't wait to get my hands on, which was tough due to high often it was out of stock. The Fast and The Furious cars have been part of Speed Champions for quite some time, so it makes sense we'll be getting more in June, for a total of three new sets. The Fast and The Furious Toyota Supra MK4 (#77260, 292 pieces) - $30 Ferrari 499P (#77261, 329 pieces) - $30 Ken Block's '65 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn V1 (#77262, 345 pieces) - $30 Lego Technic 
You may not know it, but Technic has been around since the '90s. Opting instead for more engineering-adjacent connection techniques compared to the traditional brick system, Technic sets are usually much larger and more detailed than a regular Lego set. We get four new ones come June. Fast and Furious Dodge Charger R/T Car (#42231, 1,516 pieces) - $160 Fast and Furious Mitsubishi Eclipse Car (#42229, 827 pieces) - $65 Green Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport Hypercar (#42241, 771 pieces) - $65 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U 5023 with Crane (#42242, 1,189 pieces) - $130 Lego Bluey 
Australian children's show Bluey has been a hit for both kids and parents alike. She and her family aren't new to receiving the Lego treatment, but this new batch of four sets coming in June includes new DUPLO builds for early Lego fans. Brick-Built Bluey Family (#11217, 466 pieces) - $70 | See at Amazon Grannies with Bingo and Bluey (#11216, 80 pieces) - $15 | See at Amazon Pizza Girls with Muffin and Bluey (#10469, 44 pieces) - $40 | See at Amazon School with Rusty and Bluey (#11221, 106 pieces) - $25 | See at Amazon Lego City 
City is another line of sets that have been around since the dawn of our favorite interlocking brick system. These have always offered a more realistic, slice-of-life take on Lego bricks compared to the more fantastical sets we've seen over the years. We get some new City sets almost every month, and in June we'll be getting two more to add to the collection. Mountain Bike Adventure Van (#60512, 260 pieces) - $20 Yellow Backhoe Loader (#60480, 301 pieces) - $30 More Lego Sets Out in June 
Rounding out June's impressive lineup are the sets that either don't quite fit into a bespoke category or belong to a property with only one set coming out for the month. Some notable inclusions are the SEGA Genesis Console and the adorable Peanuts: Snoopy's Doghouse sets, and of course the gargantuan Lord of the Rings; Minas Tirith set that would be right at home in any Tolkien fan's collection. The New York City - The Big Apple skyline set is the latest in the Architecture line to join cities like London and Sydney, with a beautiful and cleverly-built night sky backdrop.

This year’s annual Call of Duty release--Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 4--is set to arrive in just a few months. But according to a new report, Modern Warfare 4 may give players the chance to start the campaign during an early-access release period. Well-known CoD leak and news site CharlieIntel shared a screenshot of a “Campaign Early Access” pass on Xbox, which appears to be one of several packs available for installation. However, there's no mention of that pass on Modern Warfare 4’s official store page on Xbox. Instead, the store states that players who preorder the digital version will get early access to the open beta. It wouldn't be the first time campaign early access has been available for a Call of Duty game, however--Modern Warfare 2 had a similar program back in 2022, for instance. https://twitter.com/charlieINTEL/status/2060080572177731642 The details about Modern Warfare 4 have only begun to come out, but developer Infinity Ward is aiming to put players back into the shoes of ordinary soldiers rather than the larger-than-life action heroes from some of the more recent games. Infinity Ward has also laid out some key improvements and quality-of-life adjustments for MW4, including movement and gunplay. Black Ops 7’s omnimovement is being dropped from MW4. The Prestige system is also getting a big change. Some of the announced cast members for MW4 include Shrinking’s Luke Tennie and The Last of Us’ Young Mazino in leading roles as Lieutenant Wet and Private Park, respectively. The game will also feature supporting performances by Prisca Kim, Lanny Joon, William Lipton, and Barry Sloane, who will reprise his role as Price. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 will be released on Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC on October 23. Preorders are already live, and unlike Black Ops 7, MW4 will not be a day-one release on Game Pass. Infinity Ward has also assured players that MW4 runs smoothly on Switch 2.

It's no secret that Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream allows for a frankly mindblowing amount of player freedom when it comes to customization options, from custom facepaint, clothing, and food for Miis, to custom building exteriors and decorative objects for the island they live on. Player-made artistic aides like Living the Grid allow for even more precision, providing the tools to create picture-perfect in-game recreations of everyday objects (even if you're not a pro at pixel art). As a result, players have spent the month-and-a-half since the game's launch creating anything and everything, from familiar characters from popular game, film, and television franchises, to unique creations, like this wheelchair dress. Keep reading for a look at some of the funniest, wildest, and most well-made player creations we've stumbled across so far. Green M&M and Green Eminem https://www.reddit.com/r/tomodachilife/comments/1tgzlij/my_new_addition/ It's a very simple concept, but it's still hilarious.

I'm dying to know if these two hit it off, or if one of them is currently green with envy, watching the other soak up all the limelight on their island. - C.L. Lae'zel, Shadowheart, and Us (Baldur's Gate 3) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvGv4TQ5pX0 A YouTuber who goes by Whisky uploaded a nearly six-minute-long video showing off their Baldur's Gate 3 creations, which include an incredibly well-made Lae'zel Mii, along with a custom pet designed to resemble everyone's favorite Intellect Devourer (and occasional party member), Us. Despite being presented with a very well-designed pet, Shadowheart looks less than thrilled with Us. Other incredibly detailed Mii-versions of Baldur's Gate 3 characters--including Astarion, Gale, and Karlach--can also be spotted in the video. - C.L. Princess Bubblegum and Marceline the Vampire Queen (Adventure Time) 
While not nearly as impressive as many of the intricately designed creations in this list, I can't resist tooting my own horn here a little bit. Creating Princess Bubblegum and Marceline took a lot longer than I expected. Marceline was fairly easy--I decided to go for a twist on the red-eyed, monstrous form she sometimes takes on in moments of anger. Bubblegum was another story. Her face stays pretty consistent throughout the series, so there was no real way to get around the "two black dots for eyes and a tiny mouth" look. I did end up giving her a nose (though she doesn't have a visible one in the cartoon), because she looked far too odd without it. I even managed to find a hairstyle similar to one she wears in a flashback episode. She looks pretty good at first glance, but because I had to warp and enlarge her eyes so much to make them the right shape, she looks absolutely terrifying when she blinks or closes her eyes. - C.L. Feldspar (The Outer Wilds) https://www.reddit.com/r/outerwilds/comments/1sqvwrp/said_id_make_feldspar_too_in_tomodachi_life_so/ I've stumbled across quite a few Mii-versions of Hearthians from The Outer Wilds, but by far, my favorite is Reddit user /u/DatCurlyPal's truly out-of-this-world take on Feldspar. His upper eyes are real, while the lower set--along with all of his freckles, facial scarring, and skin texture--was handpainted on by DatCurlyPal. One feature that's especially worthy of note here is the shape of Feldspar's ears. Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream does feature a pointed "elf" ear option, but it only gives Miis ears with pointed tips. Just like his lower set of eyes, the frayed texture seen on the bottom of his ears was, again, handcrafted by DatCurlyPal. - C.L. Hinako (Silent Hill f) and Leon S. Kennedy (Resident Evil) 
As someone obsessed with the latest entries in both the Silent Hill and Resident Evil franchises, I simply had to create both Hinako and Leon. Despite their franchise's light rivalry, the Mii versions of these two have quickly become best friends--perhaps due to, you know, all the trauma. - J.C. Mr. Puppy & friends https://www.reddit.com/r/TomodachilifeLivingTD/comments/1tb916k/rare_footage_of_mr_puppy/ Reddit user /u/Shrubland has been showing off a collection of creations in which animals are shown to pilot robotic bodies. It all started with Mr. Puppy, a small dog of indeterminate breed who has somehow managed to commandeer a robot Mii. Shrubland followed up their initial post with a video showing exactly how they built Mr. Puppy, and later revealed that Mr. Puppy has since been joined by two new brain-jacking associates: Ms. Kitty and Dr. Turtle. - C.L. Low-effort YouTube thumbnail https://www.reddit.com/r/tomodachilife/comments/1t2dgdo/why_did_i_make_this/ Like just about every game that dares to offer players the option to create a non-binary character, Living the Dream has received some criticism from the usual suspects, who popped out of the woodwork to make YouTube videos complaining that Miis have a non-binary gender option. Reddit user /u/zeroplayer120 fired back with a flawless in-game recreation of a thumbnail that was used in one of the aforementioned YouTube videos, forever immortalizing the video creator's whining. - C.L. Princess Beach https://www.reddit.com/r/TomodachilifeLivingTD/comments/1t7s4tb/so_peach_and_bowser_had_a_kid/ No, this is not a reference to the iconic-yet-bewildering "Princess Beach" scene from Death Stranding. This is Peach and Bowser's lovechild, Princess Beach, and she freaks me out even more than Elephant Rosalina or Bowsette ever could. She's shockingly accurate, but Reddit user /u/These_Weird3314, says this Mii was auto-generated when their Bowser and Peach Miis decided to procreate. (According to These_Weird3314, the name Bowser and Peach actually decided on for their horrifying lovechild is "Fallon.") - C.L. A Magic the Gathering card 
Even in Tomodachi Life, I simply can't stop crackin' packs and slinging cardboard. After making my entire Magic the Gathering pod (the adorable term used for the group of folks you regularly play MTG with), I decided I needed to add cards to the game to help make the experience more true to life. I'm no pixel art pro, but I think I did a pretty good job replicating a Magic card in an easy-to-copy fashion. I highly encourage my fellow TCG nerds to add this "delightful" and "embarrassing" treasure for their Miis to enjoy, too. - J.C. Princess Peach (and friends) https://www.reddit.com/r/tomodachilife/comments/1t2yt54/when_youre_the_sixth_wheel/ The gang's all here: Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Rosalina, Princess Daisy, and… some poor out-of-place soul wearing a hamburger costume. Despite the group's "sixth wheel" sticking out like a sore thumb, the rest of the Miis in this household are remarkably accurate to the characters they're based on, right down to the little tuft of hair that always seems to be obscuring one of Rosalina's eyes. - C.L. Cloud and Tifa (Final Fantasy VII) 
Final Fantasy 7 has been my favorite game since its release back in 1997, and Tifa Lockhart, my favorite (kinda) protagonist of all-time. Shortly after adding both her and Cloud to the island, the pair became best friends and then developed a mutual crush on one another. Suffice to say that in every universe, they are truly meant to be. - J.C. Intricate island layout https://www.reddit.com/r/TomodachilifeLivingTD/comments/1tch6f9/my_island_layout/ Despite all the customization options, most player islands in Tomodachi Life end up turning out pretty square--literally speaking--as players try to squeeze many Mii houses into somewhat limited real estate. But rather than focusing solely on putting custom items on their island, Reddit user /u/SprinklesOnTurtles decided to customize their island's shape, resulting in an intricate, symmetrical design featuring flourishes like hearts, moons, stars, bows, and even bunny rabbits. - C.L. D'oh-nut-loving Homer Simpson https://www.reddit.com/r/TomodachilifeLivingTD/comments/1syj78q/genuinely_what_are_the_odds_of_this/ This Homer Simpson Mii turned out perfect, though fate played a bit of a role here. The Mii's accurate appearance is, obviously, a result of the hard work of his creator, Reddit user /u/nindieredd. But one thing players can't control is which foods their Miis like or dislike. It was a sheer stroke of RNG luck that this Mii's favorite food happens to be donuts. - C.L. Two kids in a trench coat https://www.reddit.com/r/tomodachilife/comments/1tcl6of/ive_had_to_start_carding_on_my_island/ This Mii, named "2 kids stacked up," is exactly who he says he is: two kids, stacked up inside a trench coat. His (their?) appearance seems to be a result of custom facepaint and custom clothing. - C.L. BMO, Brat, and The Communist Manifesto https://www.reddit.com/r/tomodachilife/comments/1sz9in9/i_want_to_see_your_custom_items/ While lots of Tomodachi Life discourse is focused on heavily customized Miis, there are plenty of other items players can customize in-game, something Redditor /u/iluvmydog96 seems keenly aware of. They recently posted a collection of their custom-made items (called Treasures in-game), including a copy of Charli XCX's Brat album, another Adventure Time character (BMO), a copy of the first entry in the Twilight book series, and a copy of The Communist Manifesto, among other custom Treasures. - C.L. Hideo Kojima 
Regardless of if you've played Metal Gear Solid or Death Stranding, you probably know who Hideo Kojima is. As someone who works in the games industry, I felt like it was important to add this indisputable icon to my island. While the real life Kojima is presumably hard at work on his next two games, OD and Physint, my Kojimii has been eagerly trying to make friends with Cloud Strife and Silent Hill f protagonist Hinako. Based on real-life Kojima's own penchant for befriending cool as hell celebrities, this tracks. - J.C. Gotyii https://www.reddit.com/r/tomodachilife/comments/1t9fnjk/but_you_didnt_have_to_cut_mii_off/ Reddit user /u/Marchello221 decided they wanted to pay homage to the song that got stuck in everyone's head back in 2011: "Somebody That I Used To Know," Gotye's mournful-yet-catchy ode to love lost. Just like in the music video, this Mii is standing in a room that's splattered with paint, and sporting facepaint of their own. Now we just need Nintendo to bring back Tomodachi's Concert Hall so the Gotye-Mii (Gotyii?) can duet with a Kimbra-Mii. - C.L. Fish-Miis https://www.reddit.com/r/TomodachilifeLivingTD/comments/1ti4ydl/aquatic_theme_miis/ Somehow both absolutely adorable and absolutely terrifying, this collection of aquatic Miis shows how truly wild players can go when it comes to Mii customization. Redditor /u/Infinite_Wonder5510 revealed that they created the pufferfish (whose name is Petey) using some unconventional methods. "His mouth shape was made using a mustache," they explained. - C.L. Flower Girls https://www.reddit.com/r/tomodachilife/comments/1tehmlw/my_flower_miis/ Created by Reddit user /u/BridgetBotanist, this adorable quartet is quite reminiscent of the singing flowers seen in Disney's animated Alice in Wonderland film. But what's most shocking about this little group is the fact that the peony-Mii was BridgetBotanist's very first creation. "The peony flower (pink) was my first Mii, and the lily of the valley flower (green/white) was my most recent creation," they explained. "You can definitely see the skill progression, but I love them all equally." - C.L. The Strawhat Pirates (One Piece) 
I've seen a lot of takes on One Piece's Strawhat pirates, but naturally, I really love my own version of the crew. The entire cast is cartoonish and diverse, and its a testament to Tomodachi's character creation that you can make Miis that look more or less like all of them. Just like in real life, Robin is my favorite. The face paint tool made it a breeze to bring her stoic features to life. And Sanji's swirly eyebrows? Manga accurate and fully-functional! - J.C...
James Bond has been a cultural staple for decades, and with his latest adventure--the 007 First Light game--the super-spy gets to wear a variety of suave and sophisticated outfits. Some of these are quite similar to the clothing Bond wears in the film series, dating back to his earliest appearances with Sean Connery, and GameSpot put together a compilation to show off a few examples. https://twitter.com/GameSpot/status/2060047300689350813 As you would expect, the classic tuxedo, appropriately named "Classic Tuxedo" in-game, makes an appearance, and looks almost identical to the tuxedo Connery wore in the franchise's early days. The "Day of the Dead" outfit will be recognizable to anyone who saw Daniel Craig's Spectre. The "Observant Spy" outfit, meanwhile, bears a striking resemblance to a coat Roger Moore wore when he was on his very long run as James Bond, and the "Espresso Command" outfit closely matches a suit worn by Pierce Brosnan. Brosnan's legacy in video games perhaps stands above some of the other Bond actors, as it's his portrayal that was used for the N64's GoldenEye in 1997. Regardless of the outfit you choose to wear, 007 First Light is a fantastic super-spy simulator that blends Bond's signature charm and improvisation with the open-ended design of developer IO Interactive's Hitman games. In our 007 First Light review, Mark Delaney said, "007 First Light wisely repurposes what works in both universes but isn't afraid to reimagine or ditch those parts that don't."...
The Witcher developer CD Projekt Red is collaborating with Saudi Arabia-owned game developer Scopely for a new mobile game, but it's not releasing soon. During CD Projekt's latest earnings briefing, joint-CEO Michał Nowakowski was asked for an update on how the mysterious project--which is a game based on a CD Projekt franchise--is coming together. The executive said the game is "definitely not" coming out this year. Nowakowski said the nature of game development is ongoing iteration, and this takes time. "We've been previously suggesting that this would take some time. Scopelyand their team are very iterative, and they work very fast and very hard, but it’s more about iteration and reaching a certain level of satisfaction that is felt on both side--them and us--so things are happening, but, once again, it’s definitely not a story for 2026." 
CD Projekt announced its partnership with Scopely in March 2025, saying at the time that the game was based on one of CD Projekt’s franchises. This came after CD Projekt said it was considering a Cyberpunk mobile game. Saudi Arabia's Savvy Games bought Scopely in 2023 for $4.9 billion–that is the No. 8 biggest gaming acquisition of all time. Scopely is one of the biggest mobile game companies on the planet. The company reached a new stratosphere of success with Monopoly Go. Scopely also now owns Pokemon Go. In 2024, CD Projekt said it was considering the possibility of making The Witcher and/or Cyberpunk mobile games. The company does have experience with the mobile market, as Gwent: The Witcher Card Game received mobile ports, though support for the title ended in October 2023. Another Witcher mobile game, the Pokemon Go-inspired The Witcher: Monster Slayer, released in July 2021 but shut down nearly two years later in 2023...
Diablo 4 players looking for even more of a challenge will be able to create Solo-Self-Found characters starting in Season 14. Developer Blizzard revealed Diablo 4's Solo-Self-Found (or SSF) mode as part of its Season 14 public test realm patch notes, offering the first details on all the new seasonal mechanics, item reworks, and balance changes coming to the ARPG for its upcoming season. For those not in the know, SSF is a mode that's gained popularity over the years in the ARPG community across different games. It forces players to play solo, disabling the ability to team up with others to tackle more difficult challenges. More importantly, it also restricts players to only using gear they find themselves. That means no trading with other players or using an in-game auction house to buy better gear. In Diablo 4's case, SSF characters will be seasonal-only, and won't be able to join parties or trade with others. Stashes, currencies, and Paragon points will be shared only with other SSF characters on the same account. Additionally, SSF characters won't have access to the game's free trial, couch co-op on consoles, or multiplayer-focused Dark Citadel activity. SSF characters will be locked into the mode for the duration of the season. Once the season ends, they will revert into normal characters that can group and trade as usual. 
A look a SSF character creation in Diablo 4. Those hoping for some kind of benefit to rolling a SSF character, such as increased rewards or better item drop rates (as is the case in some other ARPGs like Last Epoch) to make up for the fact that trading is disabled are out of luck. There will be no real benefit to playing Solo Self Found, other than access to SSF-only Tower leaderboards. And bragging rights, of course. SSF is just one major shakeup coming as part of Diablo 4 Season 14. In addition to the return of Riftwalkers as a seasonal mechanic and a new Lair Boss, Season 14 will also controversially overhaul how Diablo 4's Mythic Uniques work. Instead of Mythics being the best items in the game as they currently are, any Ancestral Unique item will instead have a chance to roll as Mythic quality, though this change also means Mythic Uniques will now have largely random affixes. Season 14 will bring major changes to some of Diablo 4's most powerful builds as well. One trick allowing players to become practically immortal is being nerfed, for example, while some popular builds, like Companion Druids, are also being brought down a peg. Diablo 4 Season 14's PTR will run June 2-9, allowing players to get a taste of the new season and all its changes (and offer feedback to Blizzard) before it officially kicks off June 30.

Diablo 4 Season 14 will dramatically reimagine how Mythic Uniques work, and it's a change that doesn't seem to be sitting well with many in the game's community. Since Diablo 4's launch, a handful of Mythic Uniques have been the best, and rarest, items in the entire game, with nearly every maxed-out endgame build wanting to use at least one (or likely several) if possible. Not every Mythic Unique currently in Diablo 4 is a winner, but finding or crafting items like The Grandfather, Heir of Perdition, and Harlequin Crest have always been a surefire way to gain an incredible amount of power. That was, in part, because these items had guaranteed stats and affixes. In a game of random loot, Mythic Uniques were set in stone, letting players build around them with confidence. 
A look at some of Diablo 4 Season 14's Unique items as Mythics. That's changing in Diablo 4 Season 14. As revealed in the public test realm patch notes for Diablo 4's next season, Mythic Uniques will go from best items in the game to simply a "modifiable item quality," according to Blizzard. Every Ancestral Unique item in the game (of which there are over 100) will have a chance to drop as a "Mythic" Unique. Existing Mythic Uniques are now becoming regular Uniques with drastically reduced power. On top of that, just like Uniques in the game's Lord of Hatred expansion, Mythic Uniques will have mostly random stats and affixes. In Season 14, a Mythic Unique simply means that a particular Unique item has rolled with max stat values and the potency of its special power increased by 30%. Regular Uniques can be crafted into Mythic Uniques using the Horadric Cube, though Blizzard notes players will only be able to equip one crafted Mythic Unique at a time. Players can additionally use the cube to re-roll affixes on Unique items before potentially turning them into Mythic Uniques, giving at least some control over the randomness. It's a massively controversial change, in more ways than one. Players have already voiced their displeasure with the RNG added to regular Unique items as part of Lord of Hatred, which once upon a time also had set stats. Now Uniques can roll with completely unwanted affixes, making the hunt for a usable one much more time-consuming. Blizzard appears to be doubling down on the already unpopular idea and proposing that exact change to Mythic Uniques too. Whereas before seeing a purple item drop on the ground would cause a rush of excitement, there will now be a good chance it will be practically worthless if it doesn't have the right stats. Players are already arguing about the pros and cons of the change on places like Diablo 4 subreddit. While there are some players who like the changes and argue Mythic Uniques will be even stronger with the addition of being able to re-roll affixes with the cube, many don't see the point and sound frustrated by yet another layer of RNG. https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/1tqhe42/mythic_uniques_no_longer_mythic/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button "I'm not looking for constant RNG within my RNG," user VagueSomething writes. "Uniques and especially Mythics need some consistency to stats or they're not worth mixing into your build. I'm already gambling if they'll drop and now I'm gambling if they will drop in a usable state." But not everyone agrees. User StrikingSpare100, in a post diving into the details of the changes and arguing why it's an improvement, is a fan of the changes. What were once Mythic Uniques will now drop far more frequently, with players having the option to craft them into even more powerful Mythic versions than existed previously. "Personally I like this much more than [the] current situation of Mythic Unique," they write. "70% of them are utter trash, and the rest are mandatory [items] that exist on every single build." https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/1tqpg3e/the_changes_to_mythic_uniques_are_vastly/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button Blizzard hasn't yet fully explained its reasoning for the change or whether or not it will be a permanent addition to Diablo 4 or is just in place for Season 14. It's possible the developer thinks this change will increase build variety and give players more options--something the community is always wanting to see more of. But if a greater variety of builds comes with the cost of far more work and hours of slogging through bad drops, it might not be a good trade. The Diablo 4 Season 14 PTR will run from June 2-9, so perhaps player feedback will see Blizzard divert course on the Mythic Unique changes before the season's launch on June 30.

With Hitman developer IO Interactive at the helm of 007 First Light, there was an expectation that the new James Bond game would be a showcase for what the developer does best: intricately crafted levels and worlds that run with clockwork precision. What I wasn't expecting was a game where throwing hands wasn't just surprisingly effective, but also evocative of a beloved open-world classic, Sleeping Dogs. In 007 First Light, Bond often finds himself in a situation where gadgets or bluffing won't suffice. Unlike Hitman: World of Assassination, brawling is one of the best ways to move forward, and it's brilliantly realized with a system of hard-hitting blows, grapples, and using the environment to your advantage. It's a skillset that was understandably absent from Agent 47's tour across the World of Assassination, with any fisticuffs usually being over in three button prompts and running the risk of alerting a small army of security guards to open fire on you. https://youtu.be/7gNjeadYcbg But with Bond, the world is more forgiving of outbursts of violence. Fighting in 007 First Light feels dirty, brutal, and improvised, a sensation that United Front Games mastered in its 2012 masterpiece, Sleeping Dogs. A love letter to Hong Kong action movies, Sleeping Dogs gave you ample opportunity to drop a Triad gangster with a spinning roundhouse kick, and that action was one of its greatest strengths. 007 First Light's brawls feel like a spiritual successor to the showdowns of Sleeping Dogs, as both games offer players the opportunity to improvise on the fly with environmental takedowns and using whatever's at hand to bludgeon an enemy into submission. There's an inherent savagery to the combat in those games, a no-holds-barred approach to breaking bones that's enhanced by top-notch sound design and feedback to your actions. 
Every victory felt earned in Sleeping Dogs. Admittedly, Bond's skillset pales in comparison to Wei Shen's martial arts mastery, but the protagonists feel connected. Both games also choose to treat firearms as an absolute last resort, emphasizing skill and cunning over ballistic kisses, while Bond and Shen also find their loyalties tested as they adopt new identities in pursuit of justice and vengeance. There's even some Dark Knight DNA in the mix, as 007 First Light's principal combat director, Adam Vincent, also worked as a combat animator on Rocksteady's Batman games. "Bond is young in First Light--inexperienced, eager, and a little reckless," Vincent said in a Reddit thread. "The combat needs to feel slightly more like a bar brawl. People can be used against others, haymakers, and slightly over-extended strikes, improvised weapons, and lots of environmental strikes and takedowns. Bond can obviously kill as well, which is the opposite of Batman." 
Bond leaves enemies feeling shaken and stirred. It's the closest we'll ever get to a Sleeping Dogs sequel, as a combination of disappointing sales--by Square Enix's infamous standards--and the eventual shutdown of Sleeping Dogs developer United Front Games torpedoed any chance of a follow-up to that cult-classic even when it was reportedly in an early stage of development. Who knows what's happening with the Sleeping Dogs movie, a project that has gone through numerous phases over the years. For now, 007 First Light scratches a 14-year itch for roughhousing. It might not have neon-soaked Hong Kong streets to drop goons on or offer you roadside pork buns to make you feel whole, but Bond's two-fisted approach to saving the world feels comfortably familiar once you master it. 007 First Light: Meet The Celebrity Cast Of The New James Bond Game
