One of the few Overwatch 2 co-op PvE modes, Hero Mastery Gauntlet, will be removed in the next season due to a lack of interest, Blizzard announced via a forum post. “Hero Mastery Gauntlet was intended to bring the high score-chasing excitement of Hero Mastery missions into a multiplayer format,” community manager Kaedi wrote. “Unfortunately,…

A now-deleted post on the Elden Ring subreddit states it plainly: “MARIKA MADE THE ERDTREE FROM A MOUNTAIN OF CORPSES …” The other half of the title is a Berserk spoiler and the reason the thread was taken down, but Reddit user ILBOI_X isn’t alone in this theory. Everyone is pointing at the pillars of…

Before Blizzard rebalanced almost every aspect of Diablo 4 with the launch of season 4, gold wasn’t a problem. Now it is and, despite Blizzard already making one change already, players can’t agree on what needs to be done next. Diablo 4 kind of works like an MMORPG. Most things in the game cost gold,…

You’re not supposed to defeat a boss 20 levels higher than you in most RPGs, let alone Diablo 4. I just did, alongside an army of skeletons, in its most pivotal season yet. It wasn’t particularly hard to pull off, but it would’ve taken a game-breaking exploit to do it a year ago. Diablo 4…

Bronze is one of the hardest crafting materials to get in Hades 2 and it’s because there are several steps you need to take before you can even find it. The one location to get Bronze in Hades 2 only unlocks after you’ve spent several hours battling through the underworld. Eventually, Hermes will ask you…

Thalamus is the key to surviving Hades 2’s most punishing region, but it’s tricky to find compared to the other crafting materials. To find Thalamus, you need to play far enough into the game to access Chaos gates so you can descend into the pitch-black domain of creation—which you might recognize from the first Hades.…

Hades 2 is finally out in early access on Steam and the Epic Games Store and its developer, Supergiant Games, says it’s already more substantial than the first game. “Hades 2 in early access already has more environments, foes, and fully-voiced characters than the full version of the original Hades game,” the Hades 2 Steam…
