Every month, Pokémon Go has a set of special events called Spotlight Hours that run every Tuesday from 6 to 7pm local time. These are much smaller events that work as mini-Community Days and showcase one specific species of Pokémon each week by boosting its spawn rates. They also include special boosts that give useful bonuses like double capture XP or Candy during the event period.  There can be anywhere from four to five Spotlight Hours per month depending on how many Tuesdays are on the calendar month and how Niantic wants to roll things out.

The “dev error 5476” should be familiar to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Warzone players. The error surfaced a few months before Black Ops Cold War’s release and was eventually fixed by Infinity Ward.

Fans are already reporting the error on multiple platforms and the error seems to be preventing players from joining multiplayer and Warzone lobbies.

The Origin 12 shotgun is the latest gun to enter the fray as “overpowered” in the minds of Call of Duty streamers. Otherwise overlooked and often entirely forgotten by the game’s player base, the Origin 12 is an automatic shotgun with poor range that’s outclassed by other guns in the archetype. But with the right attachments and in the right scenarios, the Origin 12 can be a decent secondary option for up-close engagements.

Alternative art card styles are returning to Magic: The Gathering within the upcoming Innistrad: Crimson Vow set, featuring a new showcase frame and the Dracula card style series.  Releasing globally on Nov. 19 and digitally on Nov. 11, Innistrad: Crimson Vow (VOW) focuses on vampires, with a wedding involving Olivia Voldaren as the story backdrop. Blood petals are featured throughout the artwork in VOW, flavorfully incorporating the power of blood and the new Blood Token mechanic.

Legends of Runeterra’s Lab mode is receiving a massive shake-up one month from now in Patch 2.19. The update, which will arrive on Nov. 10, will add in new experiments, meaning Lab of Legends, Saltwater Scourge, and Ultra Rapid Draw will all be cycled out then. While this wouldn’t normally matter for most Lab rotations, two of the three current Experiments that are rotating provide rewards and are popular single-player experiences.

This comes after the conclusion of the team’s time at the 2021 League of Legends World Championship, which continues on Oct. 30 in Reykjavík, Iceland.
