In Fortnite the servers will go down on Friday, June 9, 2023. The game will be unavailable on all platforms during this time (PC, Mac, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Switch, Android). After the maintenance is completed, the update for Chapter 4, Season 3 will go live.
When can you play Fortnite again? The server maintenance for Patch 25.00 has been scheduled by Epic Games for Friday, June 9, 2023, at 08:00 AM German time.
Update, 13:00 on June 9: Fortnite is now available again, so you can start the new season.
Meanwhile, four hours of downtime are over, but the servers remain unreachable. It is possible that it will continue around 13:00 – at least that was the case during the last season change. However, the downtime could also last longer this time. We will keep you updated here.
11:00
The Fortnite servers are still offline. However, there is new information from official sources about the content (via fortnite.com). Among other things, it is now clear that the new “soreness” variant, the “Soreness-Schnurrurlaub”, will be unlockable during the season – so not right at the beginning.
10:00
Fortnite is still inaccessible, but more and more data are apparently being added in the background. For example, leaker Shiina discovered the new lobby background, which fits the theme “wilderness”:

The creators of the strategy hit Stellaris on Steam today announced a new game: Star Trek: Infinite. The community is excited about the trailer and is looking forward to the new title of the sci-fi franchise.
Paradox Entertainment is a Swedish publisher known primarily for its historical strategy simulations in the gaming industry.
This year, Star Trek: Infinite will follow as another space simulation from the game creators in collaboration with developer Nimble Giant Entertainment.
Here you can see the trailer for Star Trek: Infinite:

Star Trek: Infinite – Teaser Trailer
Become an intergalactic fleet captain
Star Trek: Infinite will be a large-scale strategy game where you command an entire space fleet. You can choose from four different galactic powers:
the United Federation of Planets
the Romulan Star Empire
the Cardassian Union
the Klingon Empire
Each of the powers has specific characteristics and backstories. The quests also vary depending on which of the four realms you choose.
As a commander, you will have to make tough decisions, explore other worlds, and engage with other civilizations. In terms of the story, Star Trek Infinite is set several decades before Star Trek: The Next Generation.
When is the release of Star Trek: Infinite? Star Trek: Infinite will be released in autumn 2023 for PC and MacOS.
How is the community reacting? Under the trailer on YouTube, many users express excitement about the announcement of the new game, even though for some, the news came as quite a surprise.
Several users are also directly comparing the game to Stellaris:
Or Gluzman: ‘Wow, the new Stellaris DLC looks amazing.’
andromidius: ‘Finally a “sequel” to the classic game “Birth of the Federation 4X” from the 90s. A mix of Stellaris, Crusader Kings, and Star Trek: Armada would be perfect.’
Eschkabibbel: ‘Holy cow, what a wonderful surprise! To say I’m excited would be an understatement! I’ve been waiting so long for a game like this! I’m really, really excited! Thank you so much to Paradox and Nimble Giant Entertainment! I can’t wait!’
Raids are necessary in Lost Ark to progress further. They provide you with new equipment and allow you to reach higher gear scores. However, they are tough and demand a lot from you. This is something that is set to change soon.
In the beginner raids Argos, Valtan, and Vykas, mechanics have already been toned down, especially those that could wipe the entire group immediately.
Now another boss is set to be affected, the Clown Kakul-Saydon. The reason seems to be that players in the West are simply not good enough – and also too unfriendly.
What is changing? With the June update next week, Kakul-Saydon will be adjusted. However, the exact details of these changes are still unknown.
Community manager Roxx says: The changes do not focus on removing mechanics or making content too simple, but on making wipe mechanics less punishing. (via mmorpg.com) It is not explained how this will be possible without making the raid easier.
If you want to prepare for the clown, you can check out this guide. It’s surprisingly often that the phrase comes up: … otherwise everyone dies.

Changes only in the West – Are we too bad or too toxic?
Why are there these changes? Roxx further explains in the interview that this step is being taken to make it easier for new and returning players to catch up and reintegrate. This aspect is supposed to be the main focus of this year, according to the community manager.
The changes to the raids are also only happening for us in the West; in Korea and Russia, the bosses will remain as they are. The exact reasons for this are only speculation. However, the two most apparent reasons can be quickly explained:
Lost Ark shows the new class in the trailer – Swing the brush against Brelshaza
What other changes are there? Other raids will not be adjusted for the time being. Roxx states that they want to address issues like the aforementioned gatekeeping and other problems. However, there is no concrete information on this.
What do you think of the changes to Kakul-Saydon? Do you think it was necessary to tone down the boss? Or are you rather annoyed that even the toughest raids in Lost Ark are becoming easier? Feel free to let us know in the comments here at MeinMMO.
In the region of Kehjistan in Diablo 4 you will find a side quest called “The Pilgrim’s Footsteps”. This guide contains location and solution.
How do I get the quest “The Pilgrim’s Footsteps”? To obtain the side quest, you first need to find an old book. This is located in the Amber Sand region in Kehjistan, northwest of the imperial library.
If you have already conquered the stronghold “Altar of Despair,” you can ride or walk west from the waypoint that you unlocked.
Along the way, you will encounter numerous groups of enemies, especially if you walk along the map edge and thus along the water – so equip yourself well for that.
Once you have clicked on and read the old book, you receive the task to follow the pilgrim’s journey. The statue you are supposed to travel to is now marked on your map with a small blue circle.
Follow the route to the blue circle and you will reach the statue.
How do I complete the quest “The Pilgrim’s Footsteps”? To complete the quest, you need to use an emote, similar to the “Forsake the Mother” quest.
Here you need to stand before the statue and perform the emote “Follow.” If you cannot find this emote in your emote wheel, you will learn below how to customize it.
Once you have performed the emote, a chest with loot will appear. By opening this, you complete the side quest.
How to use and change emotes? Here are the keys for mouse and keyboard as well as controller:
Keyboard: Open the emote menu with “E”
Use the mouse wheel to switch the emote tab
Controller: Open the emote menu with “D-Pad Up”
Use L1/R1 or LB/RB to switch the emote tab
Once you are in the emote menu, press “Triangle” or “Y” on the controller or select “Customize” with the mouse. In this menu, you can swap your emotes:
What are emotes good for? With emotes, it is possible to communicate with other players in Diablo 4. Additionally, you can interact with various shrines to receive certain bonuses.
If you have questions about the emotes or the quest, feel free to leave a comment. We are also open to further ideas for Diablo 4 guides.
The best counters against Crypto Articuno in Pokémon GO are summarized in this raid guide. We show you here on MeinMMO which monsters and movesets you should use to quickly defeat the legendary monster.
Which Pokémon is it? Articuno is a legendary Pokémon from the first generation of games, belonging to the types Ice and Flying. Due to the machinations of Team GO Rocket, it can now be caught in its Crypto form, which boosts its attack value by 20%, but simultaneously weakens its defense. This makes it particularly interesting for use in raid battles.
When can you get it? Crypto Articuno will defend Crypto Raids of level 5 starting on June 10, 2023. It will be available on weekends until further notice. However, you can only participate on-site – remote raids are not possible.
The best counters against Crypto Articuno in raids
Crypto Tyranitar with Smack Down and Stone Edge
Mega Aerodactyl with Rock Throw and Stone Edge
Rhydon with Smack Down and Stone Edge
Rhyperior with Smack Down and Rock Wrecker
Crypto Stoutland with Smack Down and Meteor Beam
Terrakion with Smack Down and Stone Edge
Crypto Ampharos with Rock Throw and Stone Edge
Lycanroc with Smack Down and Meteor Beam
Tyranitar with Smack Down and Stone Edge
Mega Stoutland with Smack Down and Meteor Beam
Stoutland with Smack Down and Meteor Beam
Amagarga with Rock Throw and Meteor Beam
Monargoras with Rock Throw and Meteor Beam
Mega Blaziken Y with Fire Spin and Overheat
Crypto Aerodactyl with Rock Throw and Stone Edge
Crypto Metagross with Bullet Punch and Meteor Mash
Crypto Geodude with Rock Throw and Stone Edge
Ampharos with Rock Throw and Stone Edge
Alola Geodude with Rock Throw and Stone Edge
Mega Charizard Y with Fire Spin and Overheat
Weaknesses of Crypto Articuno: Due to its type, Crypto Articuno is weak against Rock-type attacks. Alternatively, you can also focus on Steel, Fire, or Electric attacks.
Is there a shiny version of Crypto Articuno? Yes, with a bit of luck you might encounter a shiny Crypto Articuno after the battle for the first time. You can recognize it by its slightly lighter blue body.
How many trainers do you need? To defeat Crypto Articuno, you should be at least three and have enough revived gems besides the right counters. If you want to defeat Articuno without the Crypto items, you should look for a few more trainers for support.
There are many action RPGs that are inspired by Diablo. A pixelated Diablo-like is finally getting a sequel and is set to release on Steam soon. Hammerwatch 2 (PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Switch) offers many new features and completely forgoes live service.
What kind of game is Hammerwatch 2? Hammerwatch 2 is a classic action RPG in the style of Diablo. Its predecessor was already an action RPG; Heroes of Hammerwatch was then a rogue-lite.
In contrast, Hammerwatch 2 focuses on its direct predecessor and aims to expand on it significantly.
Hammerwatch 2 does not impress with next-gen graphics but offers a pixelated look reminiscent of the Super Nintendo era, like Chained Echoes.
Start video
Hammerwatch 2 Announcement Trailer
Open World as the centerpiece of Hammerwatch 2
What does Hammerwatch 2 offer? In a new developer video, some features were presented. Unlike its predecessors, Hammerwatch 2 is intended to be a larger action-adventure experience.
While the first part offered a rather simple class design with a few active and passive skills, the latest installment aims to expand the classes. Mentioned are things like
multiple damage types
a significantly larger selection of active and passive abilities with additional side abilities
each class is to receive a ranged alternative
Another character development feature includes the addition of loot and various weapons. While Hammerwatch 2 will not be as complex as Path of Exile 2, it still offers possibilities for development.
The mission structure is set to expand with decision-making options and fewer monotonous quests. However, the true centerpiece of Hammerwatch 2 is the new open world.
The new open world not only offers locations and NPCs from whom you can obtain quests and items but also diverse environments. The dungeons and areas you traverse are a mix of randomly generated and handcrafted locations.
Hammerwatch 2 aims to build on its two predecessors and expand many features.
When will Hammerwatch 2 be released? There is no specific release date yet. On the Steam page, it only states Available Soon. A release in 2023 seems likely.
The game will be released on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Nintendo Switch in addition to Steam.
With the leap to the PS5, Sony’s latest games are becoming increasingly high-quality. However, there are still some graphical highlights on the PS4 that do not require the PS5 version. We show you which titles have particularly impressed the MeinMMO editorial team and offer us the most beautiful graphics on the PS4.
Many games are now hardly distinguishable from movies. Thanks to ray tracing and co., today’s graphics look almost like reality. As the lifecycle of the PS5 has just begun, many more graphic masterpieces will see the light of day in the coming years.
However, the previous generation already offered some graphical blockbusters: Ghost of Tsushima invited players to explore the picturesque landscape of Tsushima even on the PS4. And inFamous Second Son provided a true fireworks display of effects, leaving us in awe.
Therefore, we have compiled a video with some examples on the PS4 for which we do not need a PS5.
The top 5 of the MeinMMO editorial team can be admired here:

Thanks to the PS4 Pro, the performance of the console generation and thus the graphics of the games were elevated to a higher level. The cutscenes and the game itself offered a beautiful sight.
The same is also true for the PS3 era. There were also impressive games on this console that we would still insert into the console today because of their graphics.
In the accompanying video, we have also compiled five games that still look beautiful today:

The Chinese player Jian “Uzi” Zi-Hao is considered the best ADC that League of Legends has ever seen. However, at just 23 years old, Uzi had to end his professional career in LoL; his body couldn’t keep up. Now, at 26, he is planning his return to EDward Gaming, as rumors suggest. It would be his second attempt at a comeback.
Why did Uzi have to end his career so early?
Uzi started playing professionally at the age of 15. He came directly from the solo queue to Royal Never Give Up and played with the team until May 2020.
Uzi was known for his “mechanical brilliance” – he clicked faster and better than any other ADC. His reaction time was fantastic.
However, his lifestyle apparently took a toll on him. By the age of 23, doctors confirmed he had the arms of a 50-year-old. He also suffered from diabetes.
Uzi ended his career in 2020, at the age of 23.

7 Facts about LoL that only true veterans know
This is the current state: As reported from China and confirmed by the CEO of Team WE, Uzi is currently negotiating his return to the Chinese professional league LPL with Team EDward Gaming, which finished second in the LPL Spring Season 2023. However, they failed in the LPL playoffs and finished third.
At EDward Gaming, ADC Leaver is under criticism after underperforming recently. EDward Gaming has already promoted “TheSnake” from the academy.
Uzi could face the currently best ADC in the world on Saturday
If the deal goes through and Uzi makes the starting lineup, his first game would likely be against Park “Ruler” Jae-hyuk, the currently best ADC player in the world, who has just won the “MSI 2023” tournament with JDG Gaming. The first game would be on Saturday, June 10.
At EDG, Uzi would play alongside the strong supporter Meiko.
Will it work out? Nobody knows. Uzi returned a few years ago but couldn’t establish himself, failing against younger players and his own health. Ultimately, he only played 9 games for his new team before stepping back to stream.
At 26, Uzi is actually already too old for a LoL pro; few play into this age, and even fewer successfully return after a career break. The US star Bjergsen did not fully succeed in his comeback:
Update, June 9, 10:32 AM: The signs are strengthening that Uzi is returning. Several social media posts indicate this. EDG itself and people close to him, like his wife, have made statements that could be understood as hints that Uzi’s return is imminent.
This is being observed and hotly debated on Reddit. Especially in China, this is a big deal.

In Pokémon GO there was recently a bug that affected your shiny chances in remote raids. Now Niantic wants to compensate you with a replacement event, but many trainers are not pleased. We at MeinMMO will tell you when the event takes place and why it is received poorly in the community.
Which raids are involved? Since the beginning of June, you can find the legendary lake trio in level 5 raids, but only in their respective regions. Vesprit, Tobutz, and Selfe are regional Pokémon.
While Vesprit dominates the raids here in Europe and can therefore be battled on-site, many trainers have completed remote raids for Tobutz and Selfe – hoping for a shiny specimen. But the shiny chances were relatively low, as the data collected by a Japanese website showed just a few days ago.
After the remote raids were recently downgraded, many players suspected a covert change by the developers. However, they promptly apologized on Twitter and stated that it was a bug. Now they have come forward again and you will be compensated for the issues with an event.
On Sunday there will be a replacement event with Selfe, Vesprit, and Tobutz
What kind of replacement event is that? As the developers announced on the evening of June 8, 2023, via their Twitter account, a special replacement event in the form of level 5 raids featuring the legendary Pokémon of the lake trio is set to take place this weekend.

Read more about our privacy policy.
This is what the developers say (via twitter.com): “Trainers, we apologize for the technical issues that occurred during the last encounters with Selfe, Vesprit, and Tobutz. To fix this, Selfe, Vesprit, and Tobutz will appear in 5-star raids in their respective regions on June 11 from 11 AM to 5 PM local time.”
When will the event take place? The raids with the lake trio will run on Sunday, June 11, 2023, from 11 AM to 5 PM local time. So you have 6 hours to encounter Vesprit raids more frequently in Germany.
Will there also be Selfe and Tobutz? The other two Pokémon of the lake trio will not be available in Germany. If you still want to catch them, you can do so via remote raid in their respective regions. You can encounter Tobutz in America and Greenland. Selfe, on the other hand, is active in the Asia-Pacific region. With a bit of luck, you might also catch it as a shiny this time.
Are there any additional bonuses? Yes, in addition to the numerous raids that will appear during the event period, the limit for remote raids has also been increased. From Saturday, June 10 at 12 PM local time to Sunday, June 11 at 11:59 PM local time, you can complete up to 15 remote raids per day.
Trainers who participated in remote raids of the lake trio from June 1 at 10 AM to June 6 at 5 AM German time will also have their remote raid passes replaced and will additionally receive another free remote raid pass as compensation.
Trainers disappointed: “That means fewer Crypto-Artktos raids”
However, the announced replacement event does not bring joy to every trainer. Many feel this compensation is simply insufficient or complain about the timing.
Criticism of the bonuses: Trainers particularly criticize the fact that the legendary monsters will also not be available in all regions during the special replacement event. Instead, shiny hunters have to rely on the expensive remote raid passes again. Additionally, trainers wished for an increased shiny chance as compensation (via reddit.com):
GhostHarvester: Raid day – yay; Still bound to their respective regions – not surprising, but phew.
Sad_Raspberry_5981: Not really a raid day. They don’t mention anything about increased shiny chances.
Seeteuf3l: I was pretty excited until I heard that they are available in their own regions.
Criticism of the timing: Another point of criticism is that the raids on the weekend coincide with the new crypto raids featuring Crypto-Artktos. The legendary monster will first be available in the special Team Rocket raids from Saturday but only on weekends.
For this reason, some trainers are concerned that there could be fewer crypto raids due to the replacement event, and they would miss out on opportunities for Crypto-Arktos. Additionally, Selfe, Vesprit, and Tobutz will still be available in raids until June 15, so from their perspective, there would have been plenty of time left to catch shinies. Comments like the following can be seen (via reddit.com):
Fillain: “It’s nice that they are giving back the passes, but what is special about this event? That also means fewer Crypto-Arktos raids…”
Pokefan317: “Yes, but we actually already planned to do Arktos raids on Sunday. The last of us got our Vesprit shiny on Wednesday, so we won’t even be doing Vesprit this weekend. So yeah, not a good thing!”
SilverbackGorillaBoy: “Once you’ve gotten a lake spirit from each of them, you’re done. They’re useless and will never be useful. They’re still in raids for another week, more than enough time for people who want to hunt shinies to get them in quite a few raids. Most of us were looking forward to Crypto-Arktos day, and instead they’re pumping these trash Pokémon out all day to overshadow Arktos.”
But there are also trainers who don’t find it that bad. Crypto-Arktos will also still be available in raids on the upcoming weekends, so some want to seize their opportunity then.
What’s your opinion on the replacement event? Did you wish for additional bonuses? Or would you have preferred to focus more on Crypto-Arktos over the weekend? Let us know here at MeinMMO in the comments.
Chapter 4 Season 3 in Fortnite is starting and it brings a lot of new features. This was now shown in the gameplay trailer.
What’s happening in Fortnite: The new season “Wilderness” in Fortnite starts on June 9, 2023 after a server downtime that brings the update. But while everyone is waiting for the start of the new season, Epic is releasing more information about the contents.
We’re embedding the gameplay trailer here for you:

Fortnite: The Official Gameplay Trailer for Chapter 4 Season 3
What does the new gameplay trailer for Fortnite show?
In the trailer, there are some things to see that had already been suspected or even leaked. Wilderness seems to bring some new features. These include:
The new Transformers weapon: In the trailer, Optimus Prime is seen with the new “Cybertron Cannon”. It seems to function similarly to the minigun in handling, but fires a concentrated laser beam with great force.
The kinetic boomerang: A new weapon that returns when you throw it.
The infrared DMR: The DMR is also included in this season, but apparently in an infrared variant. This allows you to find your opponents even in chaotic areas – it should be useful in the jungle.
New rifle: The trailer also briefly shows the new “large drum rifle”.
The new biome: According to the description, the new environment will be located in the middle of the island, that is in the center of our map. Here you will now find a jungle that hides mysterious temples.
Riding Raptors: The Raptors are back but can now also be ridden. A helpful and probably deadly vehicle for the jungle.
Mud sliding: Apparently, the mud in the jungle gives you more speed while sliding, and you can also blend in better with the surroundings – as it seems to stick to you.
Tree sliding: You can see players sliding Tarzan-style over the trees in the jungle. This is likely to contribute to movement as well.
What else is new in the season remains to be seen – over the course of the day, more information is likely to come in. You can find everything important in our overview of Chapter 4, Season 3 in Fortnite.

In FIFA 23, the “TOTS Award Winners” are set to be released on Friday, June 9, 2023. What kind of event is this? We gather all leaks and information here.
When does TOTS Award Winners start? The start of the next event is already clear: It will be on June 9, 2023, at 7:00 PM – the typical FIFA event time. This is also announced by a corresponding loading screen in Ultimate Team. It follows the Serie A TOTS.
So far, players have actually expected that the “Ultimate TOTS” would come on this day, a collection of the best players from the past Team of the Season weeks.
Now it seems that there will be a new event called “TOTS Award Winners” instead, or at least in addition. But this also seems to go in a very similar direction.
What is TOTS Award Winners in FIFA 23?
What does the event bring? Officially, there is currently only the loading screen that indicates the event. The card design itself already points to a connection with the “Team of the Season”.
What do leaks say? Most of the information about the event comes from leaks, such as from the well-known leaker “Fut Sheriff” and the account “FIFA U Team” on Twitter.

Accordingly, the cards are said to feature players who have won various awards in the European top 5 leagues. These could include top scorers, the best goalkeepers, or even the “Players of the Year”.
This already significantly narrows the field of possible cards. According to “Fut Sheriff”, top players like Mbappé, Haaland, Osimhen, or Bellingham are expected to be featured in the event.

Which events are particularly worth it in June 2023?
These could be worth it: A large part of the events have only been announced by name, but there is already information on some that could be exciting.
Research Day “Goldsuche”(June 3): On this day you can encounter the Pokémon Raupy, Karpadorm Nasgnet, Zobiris and Schmerbe through limited research, whose Shiny rate will be increased on this day. So an exciting event for players who are looking for shiny monsters. Additionally, PokéStops can transform into golden PokéStops without the need for a gold lure module. This is how you get coins for Gierspenst.
Water Festival: Beach Week (June 6 – June 12): Here, among other things, the debut of the Pokémon Sankabuh will take place, as well as bonuses on strong throws. There will be extra candies. Additionally, the spawns will be mixed up considerably.
Like day and night + Team GO Rocket takeover (June 16 – June 25): The contents are still unknown, but it is clear that Team GO Rocket is launching a takeover. This raises hopes that during this period you can “unlearn frustration” and thus make some of the best Crypto attackers really useful.
Which further events will be added, and where more details will become known, remains to be seen for now.
However, it is certain that the new season “Hidden Gems” starting on June 1 will determine the events in Pokémon GO.

Today, on June 8th, there are issues with the servers of Diablo 4. They have been intermittently unreachable. This results in long queues where players are currently stuck.
Some players report queue times over 30 minutes (via reddit). The message “Connecting to the Diablo IV services” also appears, sometimes causing the game to freeze right at that point.
What is the current status? At 11:50 PM, the servers are still problematic, with more and more players reporting they can now log in. Many are still stuck in the queue, and some are still experiencing error messages.
The problems affect both the servers in Europe and America.
What is behind error 300202? “An error occurred while logging in (Code 300202).” This is a message indicating that you cannot access the servers with your character.
It has primarily occurred on PlayStation and Xbox. It is now also appearing on PC, as well as code 1016.
A solution for the problem is updating graphics drivers, relogging, or checking your internet connection. However, the error message today is likely mainly due to the server crashes. We will keep you updated here.
What does Blizzard say? Blizzard has also recently added a note in BattleNet. It states:
We are currently investigating reports of login issues with Diablo IV and are working to resolve them as soon as possible.
While you wait for the return of Diablo 4, you can check out the new trailer for the biggest competitor. Path of Exile 2 showcased new gameplay during the Summer Game Fest:

The MMORPG hope Throne and Liberty presented new gameplay at the Summer Game Fest 2023 and announced a tech test of a beta version that you can sign up for.
What kind of game is this?
Throne and Liberty is an MMORPG from the South Korean development studio NCsoft, which was originally planned as Lineage Eternal and was completely taken offline and revised in 2017.
A trailer for the highly anticipated title has already garnered 8.9 million views on YouTube.
The MMORPG focuses on an open game world where movement is said to play an important role. Players can use grappling hooks and can also transform themselves into water and flying creatures.
What has been announced now? As part of the Summer Game Fest 2023, Throne and Liberty showcased new gameplay. Impressive video sequences, new gameplay, and the announcement that registration for a tech test is now open were among the highlights.
In addition to Throne and Liberty, numerous other trailers for various games will be shown at the Summer Game Fest. If you want to know what is happening at the event, you can read that in our live ticker on MeinMMO:
In Destiny 2 has experienced increased server issues this week. The developer aimed to fix these and other difficulties today during a multi-hour background maintenance. However, what was supposed to happen unnoticed and without server downtime has caused the servers to be less than optimally accessible all day long. MeinMMO will keep you updated on the status.
Update history on server outages on June 8:
21:45: Our login was just successful. The servers are back online. Bungie will continue to monitor service stability as players try to log in.
21:00: The servers are now offline for the second time today for emergency maintenance. An update will be provided within 1 hour, which does not mean you can play again then. Apparently, the problems are deep and the support staff at Bungie are doing their best to get it all under control. Now we have to keep our fingers crossed that the second server downtime goes better.
20:30: Destiny 2 will be sent into emergency server maintenance for the second time today due to the ongoing error messages and will therefore go offline. Downtime begins at 21:00. An end time has not yet been announced. Players should prepare for updates.
19:00: The community manager of Destiny 2 has issued the following statement to players regarding today’s ongoing issues:
“We know it’s frustrating, and the team is working as hard and efficiently as possible. The live service is difficult, to be honest, but the team will share further updates via @BungieHelp. Don’t forget about the new developer account, as feedback is being sought here: @Destiny2Team” wrote Liana Ruppert via Twitter.
18:30: Bungie has responded to player reports and via Twitter stated that they are investigating the renewed increase of various error codes. However, no further information is available on that yet.
17:00: The guardianship is divided. While some have been able to play again since this afternoon, others are still receiving error codes, such as “Chicken”. An error code that usually occurs when there are connection problems with Destiny 2. However, Bungie has still not made a statement regarding these new errors that have occurred for some players after the maintenance.
12:30: Some players are still facing issues. While we were able to enjoy the Crucible on PC without problems, other players are currently receiving the error code “Chicken” and still cannot log in. So far, there is no official information from Bungie about whether this will require further action from the developer. We will keep an eye on it.
11:30: Bungie has now also reported that the servers are back online. Maintenance is complete and web functions have been reactivated. If you still have issues, you can report them directly in the Bungie forum.
11:16: Good news. The login is working again. Bungie hasn’t yet reached out via Twitter. But the servers seem to be back online. It looks good that everything will soon be online again as usual. We will give the all-clear as soon as the info is official.
10:22: Bungie has just changed the status of the background maintenance to emergency maintenance. Another update regarding the issues is expected to be provided within an hour. Where were you when the servers died?
10:00: Bungie would have ended the background maintenance by now if everything had gone as planned. But the servers are still offline – no one can play. Via Twitter, it was announced that they are still investigating the login issues with Destiny 2 and players should prepare for updates.
09:03: Bungie is aware of the problem that players are currently unable to log in to Destiny 2. “Weasel” error codes continue to occur.
08:00: The background maintenance has just started. Shortly after, the servers were no longer accessible. Bungie asks for a bit of patience while they investigate the problem.
Read the original article here:
This is what you need to know today: Destiny 2 players have faced various error codes in recent days that kicked them out of the game and severely impacted their playtime. This led to frustration and dissatisfaction within the community.
Bungie has reacted and decided to address these issues today, June 8, in a multi-hour background maintenance.
What was supposed to happen in the background, without the need for the Destiny 2 servers to be temporarily taken offline, did not go as planned.
Since 08:00, players have been unable to log into the game. The servers are unreachable – and this is happening while today is a public holiday in some parts of Germany.
MeinMMO continues to inform you about the current situation in this article and let you know when you can play again.

Background Maintenance on June 8 – All Times for Server Downtime
From maintenance to emergency server downtime: Early in the morning, Bungie informed players today that they planned a harmless background maintenance.
Destiny 2 will undergo a full-day backend maintenance starting in 2 hours today. After the maintenance begins, players can click on “Orbit” at the end of the activity to return to the title screen. Players who log in again should not expect any further interruptions.
Bungie stated this around 06:00 AM German time via Twitter
Here is the exact schedule for the maintenance:
At 06:00 AM German time, players were informed about the background work.
At 08:00 AM, Bungie started the maintenance. There were brief server disconnects.
The expected login should then be possible again around 10:00 AM.
Important: While background maintenance is ongoing, players may experience connection issues in the game. You may also have to contend with queues at login directly after the update.
But it never came to that. Shortly after the background maintenance began, everything stopped working.
Error Codes, Emergency Maintenance, and 2 Server Downtimes
Destiny 2 is struggling with persistent error codes: The troubleshooting in the background did not go as planned. Instead of a brief disruption, the Destiny servers have been completely unavailable since 08:00 AM.
Players could no longer log in
During login, an error message appeared stating that the servers are currently offline with a Weasel.
Nothing worked anymore – The planned background maintenance led to a complete outage of the servers
While it can be frustrating to temporarily not have access to the game, it is important to keep in mind that this maintenance is ultimately meant to lead to a more stable and smoother gaming experience.
MeinMMO will keep you updated about the progress and updates related to the background maintenance and inform you when the servers of the loot shooter are back online and stable. Therefore, we recommend players to check back regularly to stay informed about the current situation.

But despite the server outage, Season 21 in Destiny 2 has been quite relaxed so far:
The upcoming Diablo 4 competitor Path of Exile 2 showcased new gameplay at the Summer Game Fest and announced a date for further new information about the game.

Path of Exile is characterized by a very large and complex skill tree.
What new information is there? Shortly after the release of the largest Path of Exile competitor Diablo 4, Grinding Gear Games announced during the Summer Game Fest 2023 that new information about the hack-and-slash RPG would be shown on July 28, 2023. Additionally, new gameplay was showcased.

As TCG Magic: The Gathering still comes up with something special after 30 years to ignite the collecting passion of fans. A special card will only be printed once, and collectors spare no expense or effort to secure “their treasure.”
What is this card about? On June 23, 2023, the highly anticipated crossover of Magic: The Gathering and The Lord of the Rings will be released. In addition to familiar characters from Middle-earth, the edition also includes a very special treasure:
The “The 1 of 1 Ring” is a card that will only be printed once, making it a true unique piece. Collector hearts are already racing at the sight of the borderless illustration that shines in foil printing – and especially because of the serial number 001 of 001.
The well-known collector Dan Brock has already put a bounty of $100,000 on the card. However, he clarified that this was only a “starting price” meant to get people talking.
This is the current price development: The unique card has not yet been released, but collectors are already outbidding each other. Football player Cassius Marsh just raised his bid from $150,000 to half a million but has already been outbid (via Twitter).
Dave & Adam’s, a company that has been dealing in collectible cards, comics, and signed memorabilia for 30 years, has now put a bounty of one million dollars on the card.
The offer is valid only until July 17 – by then, the card must be found.
Start video
Magic Spellslingers Official Trailer
Conveniently, Dave & Adams is also selling the matching booster boxes in which the valuable card can be found – at a pre-order price of $424.95, which is just under €395. With 12 packs per box, that makes almost 33 euros per booster.
This price is indeed significantly higher than what one would normally pay for regular boosters, but not unusual for special editions.
For Dave & Adam’s, this is a win-win situation, as they profit from the sold boxes and might not even have to pay out the bounty – for example, if the lucky finder does not want to sell, only contacts after July 17, or there is simply a better offer by then.
Are there any other offers? There are indeed. LOTR fans, who are less concerned about money and more about the flavor, might also enjoy the “bounty” from Moxie Card Shop.
Because they are offering to meet around a cozy campfire with costumes and snacks and to let the card go up in flames together – as it should be.

Whoever finds the card hopefully does not make the mistake of showing it on YouTube beforehand. Because then the Wizards of the Coast will quickly become unpleasant and send the infamous Pinkertons after the supposed lucky finder.
Near the town of “Ked Bardu”, in Diablo 4, you will find a side quest named “Reject the Mother”. This guide includes location and solution.
How do I get the quest “Reject the Mother”? To obtain the side quest, you first need to find a note. This is located in the Tusmaa Rift southeast of the waypoint “Ked Bardu” among smaller rocks and some enemies.
Once you have clicked on and read the note, you will be tasked with making your way to the statue and rejecting Lilith at her secret shrine. The statue of Lilith is now marked with a small blue circle.
The statue is hard to miss, as your quest marker leads you into a cave where it is surrounded by candles and sculptures.
Here, you need to stand in front of the statue and perform the emote “No”. However, this emote is not included by default in your emote wheel. Further down, you will find out how to customize your wheel.
How to use and change emotes? Here are the keys for mouse and keyboard as well as controller:
Keyboard: Opens the emote menu with “E”
Use the mouse wheel to switch the emote tab
Controller: Opens the emote menu with “D-pad up”
Use L1/R1 or LB/RB to switch the emote tab
When you are in the emote menu, press “Triangle” or “Y” on the controller or select “Customize” with the mouse. In this menu, you can swap your emotes:
What do emotes do? With the help of emotes, it is possible to communicate with other players in Diablo 4. Furthermore, you can interact with various shrines to receive certain bonuses.
If you have questions about the emotes or the quest, please leave a comment. We are also open to ideas for further guides.
