October is here and that means Overwatch’s Halloween Terror event is coming soon. The Halloween Terror event is one of the original season events in Overwatch. It was just the second event Blizzard ever put in the game, coming in October 2016. Since then, the event has made an appearance every year beginning in the second week of October and lasting until the end of the month.  Posting to Twitter, Blizzard announced that this year’s Halloween Terror event will begin tomorrow, Oct.

Wordle is for many of its players a relaxing way to pass the time, but for others, it’s a fierce competition with their friends to see who gets the secret word of the day with the fewest guesses. Various ways of enjoying the game are certainly part of the success Wordle has achieved. Regardless of the type of player you are, at some point, you may have trouble figuring out which word to try next.

New World’s void gauntlet is a new weapon of choice for most healers in Aeternum. Scaling off Intelligence and Focus (with Intelligence as a primary), the void gauntlet lets players buff allies, debuff enemies, heal teammates, and, more importantly, summon a Void Blade. In addition, it has the Essence Harvest mechanic, which converts health into mana when blocking with the weapon.

Standing desks are becoming more popular as more people work from home because of their health benefits. Sitting at a desk the whole day slows down the body’s metabolism and can cause back or neck strain. Standing promotes better posture and increases metabolism, especially when paired with the correct standing desk mats, chairs, and other accessories. If you already have a regular desk and don’t want to switch, it’s worth getting a standing desk converter with the same benefits.

Destiny 2 is undergoing some big, exciting changes in year five, including the hotly-anticipated expansion, The Witch Queen. A new weapon archetype is here in The Witch Queen—the glaive. The first-person melee weapon is half sword, half staff, and it actually shoots projectiles, too. But you can’t grab the glaive from a world drop or by opening a chest. There’s a new feature in Destiny 2 that fans have been asking about for a long time—weapon crafting.

Splitgate, the new, independently-developed shooter from 1047 Games, launched its “season zero” event today, a pre-launch competitive season for players of the open beta. The event was announced during today’s Opening Night Live presentation at Gamescom 2021 and could even be looked at as a soft launch of sorts ahead of the game’s official launch, whenever that may be. Earlier this month, Splitgate crossed the threshold of 10 million downloads. As a result, the game’s developers made the choice to keep the game in beta for a little longer than originally anticipated.

Wizards of the Coast revealed two MTG Arena codes with the launch of Innistrad: Midnight Hunt today, rewarding players with XP and booster packs.  The digital release of Innistrad: Midnight Hunt (MID) went live today with only a few minor bugs so far.

WoTC is aware of a bug in Sealed events that’s causing deck issues.

Dota 2’s newest hero Hoodwink was an unexpected Christmas gift from developer IceFrog and Valve. While her numbers were initially overtuned, which is common for newly introduced heroes, her win rate and pick rate have gone down considerably following a few well-deserved nerfs.  Now that she’s hovering slightly below the 50-percent win rate, it’s a good time to take stock of the hero’s performances at the highest level to improve your own gameplay of the hero or get used to her before she makes her way to Captain’s Mode.

If you and your friends were sad about ranked five-player stacks being gone in VALORANT, then you might be happy to see Riot Games’ plans for Patch 3.10. In a new developers blog post detailing some additions for Act Three, the devs confirmed that five-stacks are returning for players of any rank in Patch 3.10. The trade-off will be that groups of five will earn slightly less ranked rating and four-stacks will no longer be allowed in the competitive queue.

Get ready, Summoners. We’ve got new champions entering the fight between darkness and light in League of Legends’ upcoming Sentinels of Light event, with Rengar, Pyke, and Graves joining the Sentinels and Miss Fortune and Thresh siding with the forces of evil.
