With a new season, Epic Games has added a bunch of new NPCs into Fortnite that can appear around multiple places on the map. In the Collection screen, you will come across a Character tab which is barren at the start but can be slowly filled in over time. There are 46 characters at the start of the season to collect, and they can be found on the mini-map by seeing a little message bubble above their heads when you are close to one.

Since we first got an in-depth look at the game, Game Freak was telling fans that the main quest in Pokémon Legends: Arceus was building out the Hisui region’s first Pokédex and interacting with wild Pokémon in ways the franchise has never explored before.  With a game plan like that one, developers made an effort to come up with new ideas for the Pokédex, reworking the concept of the database into something bigger than it has ever been: an evolving, core gameplay mechanic.

Fans of Riot Games’ first animated Netflix series, Arcane, have created content showcasing their love for the series and its characters for months. While some fans opt for cosplay to look like their favorite characters, some use their artistic talents in other ways that stand out among other creations. With just threads and nails, Reddit user u/Thread_Art crafted a portrait of Jinx’s Arcane look completely by hand. They noted that this specific project took them about 30 to 40 hours to complete, following two years of previous experience making art like this with these supplies.

The backbone of Magic: The Gathering’s upcoming set Kaldheim is the tribal synergies throughout the set. Elves are one of the most well-supported tribes in Magic and they’re returning with a plethora of new toys in Kaldheim. The leader of the Elves in Kaldheim is a planeswalker named Tyvar Kell. The Kaldheim native has received a mythic rare planeswalker card that’s more utility than game-breaking. Tyvar Kell is one of four planeswalkers in Kaldheim, including fellow newcomer Niko Aris and returning characters Kaya and Tibalt.

The wait for news about Guilty Gear Strive’s second season of DLC content is almost over, with Arc System Works confirming a new livestream will air on May 25 that will feature the latest information from the development team. This will be the first new details about Season Two’s content since it was originally announced at the Arc Revo America 2021 Finals in March, where Testament was revealed as the final Season One DLC fighter.

Season 12 of Apex Legends, appropriately titled “Defiance,” is just around the corner. And you know what that means: it’s patch notes season. The patch notes are headlined by the big additions and changes to the game. Olympus is seeing some major changes, with multiple new points of interest, a map enlargement, and several other tweaks and changes to help improve players’ experience. Mad Maggie is entering the fray, complete with a kit focused on cutting down the distance between her and her enemies, and flushing out characters that rely on holding down defensive positions.

It’s been a rough few months for the Sentinels VALORANT roster ever since their group stage exit at VCT Champions 2021. The former kings of NA and international juggernaut have fallen on hard times during 2022. They failed to make the regional playoffs in both Stage One and Stage Two, two of their main players have been in and out of the lineup, and they may finish the Stage Two group stage with a 0-5 record.

The icy landscape of Pokémon Sword and Shield’s The Crown Tundra expansion is teeming with powerful, legendary Pokémon. But some of the new legends are a little more interactive than the rest.  Galarian Articuno is one big troll, using its newly acquired Psychic-typing to play tricks on you if you try to approach it—and to launch devastating attacks in battle. But it still manages to look extremely classy while doing so.

You’ll catch more Pokémon than you can count in Pokémon Go, but only a few will make the cut for your “to be powered-up” list. Just like how your trainer has a level, your Pokémon does too. Leveling up a Pokémon will increase their combat power (CP), and Pokémon also share a level cap, same as the one for your trainer.  Powering up Pokémon requires resources like Stardust, Candy, and Candy XL, all highly-valued items.

After months of waiting, players around the globe are getting their first opportunity to try out the first Pokémon MOBA experience, Pokémon UNITE, following its launch on the Nintendo Switch. When jumping in, eager players will need to quickly decide on a player name and look before going through the tutorial to get in on the action. When doing this, you may quickly choose a name and then later decide that you’d like to go by something else.
