In FIFA 22 you can get free rewards again through Prime Gaming. We will show you how it works.
What are the rewards? In FIFA 22, you can claim a so-called “Prime Gaming Pack” every month. A similar feature was already available last year in FIFA 21.
When does the new pack come? Since February 21, 2022, there has been a new Prime Gaming Pack – the Prime Gaming Pack number 5.
As soon as you have claimed your pack, the contents should be credited to your account in the game. There may be some delays at times.
The Prime Gaming Pack 4 is announced for January 24, 2022
What is included in the Prime Gaming Pack? Every month there is a new pack, the contents of which may vary.
Typically, the bonuses include FUT items such as packs with gold players, player picks, loan players, cosmetics, and similar items. This should also be the case in January.
What do I need for this? To claim the Prime Gaming Packs, you need an Amazon Prime account and an EA account that you have linked together. If you are a member of both, you can grab the packs.
How to claim the Prime Gaming Pack in FIFA 22?
Here you can find the packs: First, you need to go to the loot section of Prime Gaming. This can be done, for example, via this link (via Prime Gaming / Amazon).
Now you will see the various packs displayed there. Click on the “November Pack” to secure the first set.
There will be new packs regularly
If you are not yet linked, you will now receive a prompt to connect your Prime account with EA. Just click the respective button to connect the accounts.
Then return to the page and claim your reward.
Where can I find the pack now? When you log in to FIFA 22 next time, you should receive a notification that your pack is now available. This works both on the console and in the web app. Now go to the “Shop” section and then to the section with “your packs”. There you will find the Prime Gaming Pack.
I can’t find a pack? Sometimes it may take a little while for the unlocking to occur – several players report this. Usually, simply waiting should suffice until the pack is available.
Apex Legends is more successful than ever on Steam. Since its launch on Valve’s platform, it has seen new records of players being set. With Season 12, the value has once again reached a new record of almost 400,000 players. But what do fans like so much about the fast-paced Battle Royale?
What are the current values of Apex on Steam? On February 19, 2022, Apex Legends reached a new record of 393,998 players on Steam (via SteamDB). That’s over 60,000 more players compared to the last record of 330,879 players from the launch of Season 9 of Apex Legends.
How many players are playing Apex Legends in total? Unfortunately, there are no reliable data on this, as only the numbers from Steam are publicly accessible. However, Apex Legends is also available on PC via EA’s Origin launcher, PlayStation, Xbox, and also the Switch. All these platforms are likely to provide strong player numbers as well.
From this, one can conclude that Apex Legends also in Season 12 and 3 years after launch likely has a very strong player base overall. And thanks to crossplay, full lobbies are still quickly forming across all platforms.
But what fascinates fans so much about Apex Legends?

Why is Apex Legends so popular?
These are the voices of the community: Here too, a look at the Steam reviews offers good insights. Overall, Apex Legends has “very positive” ratings on Steam. 86 percent of the currently 399,828 reviews are positive (as of 02/22/2022 via Steam).
Fans praise and highlight among other things:
the fast pace and movement in the game, similar to Call of Duty (hence many CoD pros switched to Apex)
However, some players also criticize that Apex Legends, like many BR games, is not very beginner-friendly. But with Season 12, there fortunately is a new game mode called Control.
This comes with unlimited ammo and respawns and provides newcomers with valuable support to try out the game and gunplay of Apex Legends at their own pace.
The anti-cheat system “RICOCHET” of Call of Duty: Warzone has stepped up its game. Instead of just banning cheaters, the tricksters are now facing extreme disadvantages in matches. A clip shows how hard this hits some cheaters.
Cheaters had better times in Call of Duty: Warzone. For months, they dominated the battlefields of the free battle royale and felt like unloved kings.
But CoD stepped up in the fight for fairness, developed a new anti-cheat system, and celebrated initial successes in the weeks following its introduction.
Call of Duty currently identifies a rise in cheaters in Warzone, and to learn more about the cheats, the developers are now letting the tricksters play longer without banning them. However, not without extreme gameplay disadvantages that are driving some tricksters to despair.
Cheater gives up – “I’m uninstalling everything I have”
A celebrated example of a desperate cheater can currently be found on the discussion platform reddit.
The Redditor “Charlie_In_The_Bush” posted the video of a cheater. It shows a Warzone trickster demonstrating the new features of the anti-cheat and appearing quite desperate:

In the nearly one-minute video, the cheater can be seen landing with his parachute on an opponent to demonstrate what the anti-cheat system does to him.
He chases an enemy, fired a few bullets at the opponent, and … the enemy disappears.
“Look, he disappears! Right there! He disappears from my screen!” the cheater screams and doesn’t quite understand what’s happening to him.
It seems as if the enemy player completely disappears for the cheater. Neither the activated wallhack nor the running enhanced reconnaissance drone shows the opponent to the trickster.
With a frustrated “Anti-cheat is real!” he ends the match and announces that he will uninstall everything. Whether the cheater only means his cheating software or the whole Warzone is not clear.
What do players say about it? In the thread to the clip on reddit, many commentators find the video very “satisfying”. There are some who thank for posting the video.
However, the mood is also partly tense. Many insult the cheater or cheaters in general.
The majority, however, remains schadenfreude. And it actually feels quite good to see the cheater’s house of cards collapse.
On Pokémon GO, there is a new promo code on February 22. However, it does not work for all players. We will show you the code and the items here.
What kind of code is this? Promo codes for Pokémon GO are repeatedly published. You can redeem these codes either in the game or on a corresponding website to easily secure some gifts for yourself.
Today, on February 22, a new code appeared that is being shared in the community:
7AZGHWU6DWV84
How long is the code valid? You can redeem it immediately, and you should do so as long as it lasts. Since it is unclear how long the code will remain valid, you should hurry.
What does the code bring? You will receive 30 Poké Balls and one Incense.
Code cannot be redeemed: Trainers in the community report that the code works fine for them and provides the 31 items. Other players report that they receive an error message and cannot redeem the code. Currently, it is unclear what the reason for this is.
How you redeem the codes depends on your smartphone. In Pokémon GO, the procedures differ slightly between iOS and Android. While on Android you can easily redeem codes in the game, on iOS you have to go through an external website.
On Android devices: If you are playing on an Android device, you can simply redeem promo codes in the in-game shop. You just have to scroll down until you find the “Promos” field. There, you enter the code, confirm, and then the items should go into your bag.
On iOS devices: On iOS devices, entering in the shop is not possible, as the corresponding field does not exist at all. Instead, you have to visit Niantic’s rewards website. You can find the link here: Redeem promo code (via rewards.nianticlabs.com).
Here you need to select your linked account and enter the code. If everything worked, you should see a corresponding notification on the website. In the game, you can check in the journal if the items have been credited to you through the code.
In online games and MMORPGs many players want to create characters as detailed as possible. We show you a number of games where you have particularly many options and customization possibilities in the character editor.
Pretty much every online role-playing game and many other MMOs let you create and customize your own character. The least you can expect in terms of customization options is usually a handful of hairstyles as well as hair, skin, and eye color.
However, some games go even further and offer an almost absurd number of options in their powerful character editors. This is especially optimal for players who want to engage in role-playing in MMOs and therefore want to create their own unique protagonist.
The following games have such detailed character editors and are just right for spending hours creating and customizing your hero.
Here is what to expect in Blade & Soul: In NCSoft’s martial arts MMO Blade & Soul, you can expect a colorful anime aesthetic. So if you like anime and manga style, you will have a blast in the editor. Because Blade & Soul offers a lot of possibilities to design a character according to your wishes, especially if you like comically exaggerated proportions.

Here is everything you can set: Those who create a hero in Blade & Soul will be overwhelmed by sliders! There is hardly a physical attribute that you cannot adjust with sliders. Even your feet can vary between petite little feet and huge clod-hoppers.
In addition, there are sliders for height, shoulder width, arm length, leg length, and for female heroes, the breasts. If you like, you can spend a lot of time in the editor until the character looks the way you want.

These are the highlights: The physical customization options in Blade & Soul are extensive, but there is also a lot of customization possible for the face. You can choose your hairstyle from a variety of hair styles. Here, crazy anime locks dominate.
There are also crazy skin colors. Even green goblins and red giants are possible. But particularly spectacular are the eyes of your heroes. You can also add special patterns to the iris in addition to crazy colors. So if you want cat eyes or strange swirls in the pupil, that is easily possible in Blade & Soul!
Aion
Here is what to expect in Aion: The online role-playing game Aion from NCSoft is somewhat older, but it still has one of the best character editors in the genre. In beautiful anime graphics, you can set a multitude of options and create your dream character.

Here is everything you can set: An interesting detail about the character editor of Aion is the hairstyles. Aion offered such a large selection that many other MMOs have since then dutifully copied the most popular hairstyles. Just pay attention, you will be surprised how many hairstyles in other games originally come from Aion!
You can then color the hair with a practical color palette as you like, giving your hero even more flair.
These are the highlights: Like Blade & Soul, Aion offers you an incredible array of sliders. With them, you can set everything: legs, arms, shoulders, breasts. Whatever you want! If you want to go totally overboard, you can also create ridiculously long stilts or small stumps that are almost as high as they are wide as heroes.
Aion may be somewhat outdated by now, but its character editor is still one of the best, if not the best in the MMORPG genre!

The new MMORPG Lost Ark brings a lot of innovation. So much that MeinMMO author Mark Sellner claims it feels like he is playing an MMORPG for the first time, even though that was actually over 15 years ago.
Hand on heart: How often have you started a completely new MMORPG and thought after just a few minutes or hours, “Somehow I have seen all of this before”?
This isn’t your fault, but rather because many Western MMORPGs rely on similar patterns and schemes. This doesn’t have to be negative because, as someone who has played Guild Wars 2 for a long time, I only need a little time to wrap my head around Elder Scrolls Online, New World, and others.
This drastically lowers the barrier to trying out a new representative of the genre, and I have always seen this as something positive. MMORPGs can actually be quite complicated if you have never played one before.
Who is writing here? Mark Sellner is an MMORPG author at MeinMMO and has been in the genre for over 15 years. He has seen and played everything from Asia-grinders to “tiny” MORPGs. However, after several thousand hours in the genre, Lost Ark feels to him like something completely new.
You can easily get lost between Gearscore, crafting, dungeons, world bosses, completion tasks, and various classes. It’s good if you have 15 years of MMORPG experience and already know how many of these mechanics work, right?
However, Lost Ark taught me otherwise. Although I have definitely played more than 50 different MMORPGs over the years, the Korean isometric MMORPG feels like it’s the first one I have ever played. It even gives me things to do that I have never experienced before. And that is really good.
Lost Ark might not reinvent many mechanics, but it applies them so differently that it still surprises me as an experienced MMO player. It feels as if I suddenly play an MMORPG for the first time or finally one that has been thought through.
In Lost Ark, I gradually loot better equipment and complete quests in a more or less open world, most of whose dialogues don’t need to interest me. But it’s precisely the tasks that I dwell on that make the game so good.
Too often, an NPC asks me something that I must answer correctly for the quest to proceed. These are not questions whose answers I already know, but often things taught to me in the context of this quest. If I wasn’t paying attention and don’t know the name of the very first Guardian, I’m out of luck with the questioner.
Of course, I can just restart the dialogue, but there are also moments when Lost Ark actually punishes me for not reading the dialogues.

In this podcast, the MeinMMO team talks about how Lost Ark feels after 30, 60, and 120 hours
Look closely, you idiot!
If you don’t read carefully what you are supposed to do in Lost Ark and how the following mechanic works, you will stumble. This happens to varying degrees of severity, but it happens. A mechanic that makes sense, but one that I am rather unfamiliar with from MMORPGs. In several thousand hours of Guild Wars 2, I can barely remember a handful of tasks for which I really had to listen.
In contrast, Lost Ark gently teaches me through dialogues to look more closely. If I don’t learn this, I will suffer later. Already in the first area Rethramis, I need a 500-year-old wine to complete the adventure folio.
In a dungeon, I then find a 499-year-old wine that I can consume immediately. If I do that, I receive an achievement that tells me I am an idiot – that’s literally stated.
The item is gone and my folio remains incomplete. So I have to go back into the dungeon and fetch the bottle of wine. Upon closer reading, I notice the item description. “Only an idiot would drink this valuable bottle immediately.” It also says I should keep it in my inventory for 2 hours.
If I follow the description, after two hours the 499-year-old wine indeed turns into a 500-year-old wine, which I can then drink to unlock the entry in the folio. But I also learned much more about the game through that.
If you want the entry in the folio, you have to pay attention
From now on, I will scrutinize every item description of a rare item carefully because such mechanics caught me off guard quite often in over 200 hours. Sometimes I have to eat an ice cream within a minute, sometimes I’m not allowed to eat an egg in the first minute or after 3 minutes. The adventure folio constantly demands my attention in a way that MMORPGs rarely do.
This mechanic is pushed so far at times that it becomes uncomfortable. Its best and worst peak occurs on the continent of Arthetine. Here you are tasked with preparing the “Unknown Liquid XD-6353.” It consists of 6 different ingredients with very vague names.
The only challenge is figuring out which ingredients you need to buy. And that is much harder than you might think. While we need the item IX-ILIL121lIILI1, the game gives us 7 different items to choose from, which have almost identical names. If I buy the wrong one, I have successfully burned silver.
Buying the right one is easy, right?
Lost Ark demands my attention here in a strange way that makes me both happy and sad. Because, although I look back now and think this quest is a masterpiece by Smilegate, I was incredibly annoyed while having to do it.
I had a similar experience with the side story “The Secret of Your Majesty” in North Vern. If I don’t read correctly here that I just interacted with the wrong item, I feel like I run endlessly across the map. I was so annoyed by this that I immediately wrote a guide for it as soon as I finished so that no one else would have to suffer through it.
But even here, I think back: “Damn, that was really well done.”
Other game mechanics in Lost Ark continue this approach and think it through. I constantly feel that the developers have gone one step further than in other MMORPGs. You can notice this not only in strange tasks and cooking recipes.
And then there’s a quest that causes an error message. That freaked me out at first, but then I realized that it was part of the quest and was intended. Lost Ark repeatedly breaks the fourth wall, known from films, with such inserts and addresses me as a player, not just my character.
This quest shocked me deeply
These are relatively few examples of a whole lot of exciting tasks and mechanics that are usually not common. Lost Ark feels thus like the next level of MMORPGs, the big level-up of the genre. But not quite like the very first. There are still more things that ensure this.
The trick about the setting is that Lost Ark has none
When you open Lost Ark, you might think the game has a slightly Asian-flavored medieval fantasy setting. Well, that is simply a lie. This assumption starts to crumble when you take a closer look at the classes.
Because in addition to the classic warrior, assassin, mage, and archer, you can also expect classes like the Artillerist. He shoots little atomic rockets with a big artillery gun. Or the pistol lancer, who wield a strange combination of spear and rifle with a shield.
That doesn’t really fit the medieval fantasy you expected, does it? It becomes clear again on the continent of Arthetine. Because while we visit a rather medieval Europe in Luterra and a feudal Japan in Anikka, the capital of Arthetine, Stern’s Origin, shines in finest steampunk style.
And so I find myself shortly after as a greatsword-wielding berserker on a hoverboard. Gliding over a gravitational wave on the way to my battle mech. While robots throw laser discs at me. I then jump into the combat robot and shoot the genetically modified enemies with two machine guns.
Arthetine literally tears the original setting apart
But just a few hours earlier, I had found myself as a shrunk Mokoko in a town built within a tree, riding ladybugs through a world where crows were the most dangerous enemies solely due to their sheer size. Shortly after, a setting awaited me in Shushire that had little in common with the playful Mokokos.
Lost Ark relies on a completely different setting for each continent and island. This feels fresh and allows the game to experiment a lot. The premise of the main story: “Help, demons are destroying our world” works excellently in every setting, and Lost Ark proves this constantly.
Another reason why Lost Ark feels like my first MMORPG is precisely this enormous variety. While I feel on Anikka or in Luterra that I have experienced these settings and things before, this completely disappears in other locations.
Particularly Arthetine, Tortoyk, or some of the small islands offer me things to discover, causing me to stop and marvel regularly because no MMORPG has offered me as much variety in its presentation as Lost Ark does.
When I, as a seasoned hero, have to fight shrunk against a parrot with a pirate hat, it’s just genius. Or when later, I have to help a reporter exposing environmental pollution to save polar bears. Or that one time I was on the disco island and had to dance, or… you get the idea, there are many “or” in this listing. And so many more that can’t be included here.

This unique look and what I consider groundbreaking game mechanics make Lost Ark feel like my first MMORPG. And that is despite the fact that I have been actively playing MMORPGs for 15 years.
A LAN party made the experience perfect
When was the last time you had a truly genuine LAN party? One with real computers in a room, cramped together and without Wi-Fi or other substitutes? I thought the same thing and organized the “LostLAN” with my friends – because they were just as hyped about Lost Ark as I was.
This LAN was the best idea I had so far in 2022. Because sharing the joy of the game with a total of 7 other friends in the same house was a great feeling.
Many more joined us later over Discord, and we spent the entire launch week just gaming together. And some moments of that week made this MMORPG feel really new again, like my first MMO.
On February 8, we set up a countdown until 6 PM, which we presented on a large screen. We counted down the last 10 seconds until the launch, just like on New Year’s Eve, and celebrated just like that. That was just one of many fun moments, and many more were to follow.
A real LAN party, how nice!
Especially when we were all around level 35 and unlocked the engravings. Lost Ark is by no means a game that explains itself. So we pondered together in the middle of the night about how this mechanic could work. When we finally figured it out, we praised ourselves and continued playing. At least until the next group thinking project came up.
This feeling of collective joy and the fun of exploring a new game from scratch and being able to share every little discovery with others felt exciting. After more than 15 years in this genre, it felt like my very first MMORPG, and that’s really nice.
What do you think of Lost Ark so far? Have you played the MMORPG just as intensely as I have and does it feel just as fresh to you? When was your last LAN party? Or have I just convinced you to finally throw another one? Please let us know in the comments here at MeinMMO.

In Pokémon GO the Spotlight Hour starts today, on February 22, with Voltorb. You will receive a bonus that gives you more candies. We will show you everything about the start, event, and shinies of the event.
What kind of event is this? Every Tuesday evening, a Spotlight Hour starts in Pokémon GO. During the event, a selected Pokémon is in the spotlight.
This means that you can find the monster almost everywhere in the wild. There is also a bonus that affects the candies you earn.
We will show you here what the Spotlight Hour on February 22 brings and for whom it is worthwhile.
Spotlight Hour with Voltorb – Start, Shiny and Bonuses
When does the event start? The Spotlight Hour starts today, on February 22, at 6:00 PM local time. This is the usual start time for this type of event. The event ends at 7:00 PM.
What bonuses are there? During the Spotlight Hours, the event Pokémon – in this case, Voltorb – typically appear everywhere in the wild. If you want even more spawns, then activate a lure during the event, which will also attract Voltorb.
Additionally, you will receive a candy bonus. For Pokémon that you catch during the event, you will receive double the amount of candies. Keep in mind that this applies to all Pokémon you catch, including raid bosses.
Are there Shiny Voltorb? Yes, you can find and catch Voltorb in its shiny form. Its color changes, and the Pokémon becomes blue.
It is strong: Voltorb and Electrode are not really interesting in raids.
However, the candy bonus is interesting, as it applies to all catches. So, if you are not interested in Voltorb, you can do raids during this time and receive double candies per catch.
One single explosion takes out many Horde players at once. Rextroy is once again escalating in World of Warcraft – and takes dozens of victims with him.
Every few weeks, it’s that time again when the player Rextroy finds a new method to turn World of Warcraft upside down. This time is no different, as he has found a way to kill enemy players with a single attack – and not by a small margin.
A whopping 300,000 damage points not only take out one but several enemies at once.
What did the mage do? In his latest video, Rextroy shows how even a poorly equipped mage can deal significant damage – so much that top-equipped players drop instantly. The spell “Touch of the Magi” causes with its effect that hardly anything remains standing.
Recommended editorial content

I consent to external content being displayed to me. Personal data can be transmitted to third party platforms.
Read more about our privacy policy.
How does it work? For the trick, Rextroy had to experiment for quite a while. Someone had sent him a screenshot showing the absurd damage numbers of Touch of the Magi. It took a long time before Rextroy found the solution to replicate these high values.
The trick is to find a low-level enemy NPC that can be affected by Touch of the Magi and simultaneously controlled by a priest using the spell “Mind Control”. This works on humanoid NPCs, but also – as so often – on the frogs that Rextroy keeps using.
The catch is that Rextroy has a priest in tow who applies the PvP talent “Beam of Hope” to the “carrier” of Touch of the Magi. This prevents all damage for a few seconds and instead adds it delayed. After the mob is released again, the mage casts Touch and then some Arcane spells.
Touch of the Magi now collects, as the spell prescribes, 25% of all damage dealt and explodes after the duration for that amount. Since Rextroy is attacking a low-level enemy, this damage is massively increased, which ultimately affects the explosion.
The highly scaled damage accumulates on the mob, which soon explodes for up to 300,000 damage points and defeats all living enemies in the area.
The result is significant amounts of up to 300,000 damage points, knocking out pretty much every character immediately. Only tanks and rogues with various versions of the “cheat death” abilities can withstand it.
Is it forbidden? Basically yes. However, Rextroy has more or less “freedom” with his videos. This is because he is constantly in contact with Blizzard and reports the bugs and exploits he finds.
Only when the developers give him feedback that the bug has been fixed does he publish the corresponding video. This ensures that such bugs are not used by the general public to disrupt the flow of the game.
We can be curious about what new methods Rextroy will find in Patch 9.2 to cause absurdly high damage numbers.
What do you think of Rextroy’s latest video? An impressive feat? Or just annoying nonsense?

Regularly, Sony also offers PS5 consoles directly in its own shop. Today, on Tuesday, February 22, 2022, it is supposed to happen again. MeinMMO presents you all the informationand explains what you need to know about the sales campaign.
Furthermore, it is still difficult to buy a PS5. This is partly due to missing components in production. Many devices require certain components that are only very limited available due to the Corona pandemic.
But now there are indications that another PS5 promotion will start soon, directly at Sony. MeinMMO explains what you need to keep in mind if you want to buy a PS5.
We will update the news for you as soon as we have more information and the drop has started.
Update, February 22 12:23 PM: The sale at Sony has now ended. There will be no further consoles available at Sony for the time being, but we will keep you updated in case there is a new drop.
Update, February 22, 11:02 AM: GamesWirtschaft stated on Twitter that the consoles at Sony should already be sold out. Therefore, it is unlikely that there will be an open sales campaign today. However, we will keep you updated:

Today, PS5 consoles are supposed to be available at PlayStation Direct
Where does the information come from? In the past few days, we have received emails indicating that today, February 22, 2022, a PS5 sale is supposed to take place directly at Sony. The people must have received an email from Sony announcing the drop.
When is the sale supposed to start? The email mentions 10:30 AM as the start time for the sale. This time is also confirmed by Gameswirtschaft (via gameswirtschaft.de). The sale is supposed to run until 12 PM.
It is still unknown if there will be an open sales campaign. You need to be patient and hope for Sony.
If you need a reading tip before 10:30 AM, you can check out the following article about a monitor:
What is the advantage of PlayStation Direct? PlayStation Direct is Sony’s direct distribution channel. You buy your hardware directly from Sony and not through a third party or a store. Returns or warranty cases are also handled directly by Sony, which can save time.
Buying directly from Sony is also less stressful because you don’t have to argue with scalpers and resellers.
Sony has so far opened direct PS5 sales to everyone after a while
How does the sale at PlayStation Direct work? First, there is a disadvantage: You can only buy one PS5 at Sony at the beginning of the campaign if you have received an email with a personalized link. Through this link, you can access Sony’s shop and purchase a PS5 and the corresponding accessories.
Our tip: Therefore, you should check your email inbox directly and see if you have received a link to Sony Direct. Then you can prepare for the drop on this Tuesday.
How can you pay? According to Sony’s official FAQ, there are currently only two payment methods (via direct.playstation.com). At the moment, you can pay at PlayStation Direct in Germany either with Visa or Mastercard. Other options are not available yet. Invoicing, direct debit, transfer, or PayPal are not accepted.
Did not get a PS5? If you did not manage to get a PS5, it is best to check our ticker. Here we will keep you updated daily and explain how you can best get a PS5 and show you drops related to the coveted console.
Project V is a new co-op game by former employees of Riot Games (LoL, Valorant). They aim to develop a game that blends MOBAs with PvE content and dungeons. The first alpha is set to start in March.
What kind of game is this? In Project V, you’ll participate in a multiplayer online game where you must complete dungeons and raids with other players, similar to an MMORPG. The focus is on teamwork, but Project V aims to incorporate the “skill level” of a MOBA. They themselves call the genre MOCO (Multiplayer Online Coop).
You choose one of several heroes before starting, who must be strategically utilized. Each instance run is meant to provide a new challenge, and the replay value is intended to be “endless.” However, how exactly this will look has not been disclosed. Furthermore, PvP is expected to play a role, though the details are still unclear.
Nonetheless, the developers emphasize that players who enjoy competitive gameplay will definitely find something to their liking.
Currently, there is neither gameplay footage nor screenshots of the final game. So far, there is only a small “Behind the Scenes” video about the development studio and life in Dublin:

Game is still early in development, first pre-alpha is starting soon
What is the current status of Project V? The game is still early in development and was only announced at the end of 2020. However, the first pre-alpha tests are set to begin soon.
The first test is scheduled for March 5th. You can already sign up on the official website (via Vela). Regular pre-alpha weekends are expected to follow.
Who is behind the game? Vela Games is a new development studio founded in 2017 by former developers from Riot Games.
CEO Travis George was the Product Lead for League of Legends from 2008 to 2017. Their proximity to the MOBA genre is evident not only in the design idea but also in the artwork of Project V.
According to their statement, the development team aims to take elements from fans’ favorite games and combine them into something new and fun. We might learn how the MOBA integrates with the dungeons by early March.
In June 2021, the studio reported that they had found investors who would support them with 17.3 million dollars. Among them is Ubisoft. Currently, over 25 employees are involved in the development.
What do you think of Project V? Does the idea of dungeon runs with the skill level and hero system of a MOBA appeal to you?
Besides Vela Games, the studio Singularity 8 was also developed by former developers from Riot Games. However, they are focusing on a very social MMO with Palia:
All Spotlight Hours with bonuses, Pokémon, and times in February 2022 at Pokémon GO are known. In this month, there are four dates awaiting you. We will show you when there are candies and stardust as rewards.
What kind of events are these? The Spotlight Hours take place every Tuesday evening from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM in Pokémon GO. A specific Pokémon is in the spotlight and spawns nearly everywhere in the wild during the event. During these event evenings, a bonus is always active, rewarding you with more stardust or candies.
We will show you in the following overview all dates for the Spotlight Hours in February 2022 with Shinys and bonuses.
We will take a closer look at each of the Spotlight Hours and show you the exact bonuses in detail.
Spotlight Hour on February 1
Which Pokémon will you meet there? In the first Spotlight Hour in February 2022, you will encounter Leufeo from the sixth generation. It is of the Fire and Normal types and can evolve into Pyroleo.
What bonuses do you get? For evolving Pokémon, you will receive double experience points.
Who is this worth it for? Neither Leufeo nor Pyroleo are strong attackers in Trainer battles (PvP) or Raids (PvE). The Spotlight Hour is most useful if you have a few Pokémon saved up for evolution and want to take advantage of the XP bonus.
Can you catch Shiny Leufeo? No, you cannot catch Shiny Leufeo.
Spotlight Hour on February 8
Which Pokémon will you meet there? During the second Spotlight Hour in February, you will encounter the Fairy Pokémon Parfi. It is from the sixth generation and can evolve into Parfinesse.
What bonuses do you get? For catching Pokémon, you will receive double the amount of stardust.
Who is this worth it for? Parfi is negligible as an attacker. Its evolution, Parfinesse, at least performs decently in the Super and Ultra Leagues. In Raids, Parfinesse is unimportant.
Can you catch Shiny Parfi? No, you cannot catch Shiny Parfi in Pokémon GO yet.
Which Pokémon will you meet there?The Pokémon Smogon from the first generation is spotlighted during the third Spotlight Hour in February. It is of the Poison type and can evolve into Smogmog.
What bonuses do you get? For catching Pokémon, you will receive double the amount of experience points.
Who is this worth it for? Neither Smogon nor Smogmog play an important role in Raids or Trainer battles. So use the Spotlight Hour mainly to earn experience points and the chance to catch a Shiny if you’re lucky.
Can you catch Shiny Smogon? Yes, you can find and catch Shiny Smogon in Pokémon GO.
Which Pokémon will you meet there? The last Spotlight Hour in February brings Voltobal into focus. It is of the Electric type and hails from the first generation. You can evolve it into Lektrobal.
What bonuses do you get? For catching Pokémon, you will receive double the amount of candies.
Who is this worth it for? Neither Voltobal nor Lektrobal are interesting for Raids or Trainer battles. Therefore, this event focuses on the candy bonus. As this also counts for other types of Pokémon, it is worth doing Raids during this time to receive double candies for catching Raid bosses.
Additionally, you can take the opportunity to catch Shiny Voltobal.
Can you catch Shiny Voltobal? Yes, you can find and catch Shiny Voltobal in Pokémon GO.
Conclusion: Unfortunately, the Spotlight Hours in February do not bring particularly strong attackers either. Use them mainly to benefit from the bonuses or to take advantage of the small chance of Shinys. If you are looking for strong Pokémon, check out our overview of the strongest attackers in Pokémon GO.

The Xbox Game Pass game collection is expanding once again. Among them is an absolute insider tip: Roboquest. MeinMMO tells you why you should play this fast-paced loot shooter in coop.
The loot shooter Roboquest is not known to many people, but it has developed into an absolute insider tip on Steam. Fans of Borderlands, DOOM, and coop roguelites celebrate this just as fast-paced and colorful indie shooter in Early Access.
That the game is very good is also our opinion: At MeinMMO, Roboquest has made it onto the list of the best loot shooters as well as on the list of the best single player shooters under 20 €.
Update from February 22: This article has been updated to reflect that Roboquest is now available through the PC Game Pass.
From now on, PC players can also play this shooter insider tip in the Xbox Game Pass. Xbox owners will have to wait a bit longer: Roboquest is announced for Xbox One and Series X|S, but does not yet have a release date.
Roguelite shooter plays like Borderlands after literally drinking energy drinks
Roboquest impresses with a colorful look and fast gameplay. The game rewards good shooter skills and fast movement.
With some practice and experience, much faster action is possible than even in the trailer:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSz7HNVWYIU
What makes the game special? Roboquest is still in Early Access, and yet it’s already a great and complete game. It is not only an excellent loot shooter but also one of the best roguelites on the market.
Thanks to the coop mode and comic look, the game is comparable to the Borderlands series or the roguelite hit Gunfire Reborn – but it plays significantly faster than these games.
As one of currently 4 possible classes, you collect numerous weapons with random stats and modifications along the way, which you can use to blast down evil robots. With permadeath mechanics, diverse weapons, many class builds, and a coop mode, the game offers a lot of replay value even in Early Access.

Why is the game so good? A great soundtrack, several classes, and diverse weapons constantly motivate you to start a new run and try new things.
All of this happens at a crazy pace – thanks to slides, double or triple jumps, charged melee attacks, poles you can slide on, and the ability to use your enemies’ heads as trampolines.
This is not only incredibly fun; you are also rewarded for good and fast shooter gameplay. The faster you finish the levels, the more rewards you get. This ensures that you want to discover the speedrunner within you.
The average runs in Roboquest should last 45 – 60 minutes; after some practice and with more permanent upgrades, that can be even faster.
More insider tips from the MeinMMO editorial team:
Roboquest has 94 % positive reviews on Steam: “I want to marry this game”
How do players find Roboquest? Although the game is still relatively unknown to few gamers, players on Steam have a predominantly positive opinion of Roboquest. Of 2,596 votes, 94 % are positive. This enthusiasm is also reflected in the review texts.
In his Steam review, dougmantis writes: “Roboquest is fantastic. All the fun of Borderlands, Doom, and Risk of Rain, packaged in a small, crisp cartoon shell. And there are cute killer robots. I want to marry this game.”
Ryder thinks similarly: “This is another case of an indie game that actually feels more polished and complete than most AAA titles. And the game isn’t even on the market yet.”
Turnip agrees: “It’s not even out yet and it’s honestly one of my favorite games of all time. The movement is smooth and satisfying, the weapons feel great. If you want a game where you can just exist and feel like a badass, this is perfect. Like PvE Quake with a better soundtrack.”
Starting today, February 22, PC players can easily try the game through Game Pass. This makes it another win for Game Pass owners. Why the subscription service is such a good deal, especially for coop fans, find out here:

On Saturday, the Pokémon GO Tour: Johto starts for trainers around the world. If you want, you can buy a ticket for about €12 for the one-day event. This unlocks additional bonuses and content for you.
We will show you here what content you get if you purchase the ticket. Additionally, we will compare it with the content that players without a ticket do not receive. This way, you can easily find out if the purchase is worth it for you.
Playing the Johto Tour with a Ticket – Is it Worth it?
What kind of event is this?The Pokémon GO Tour: Johto When does it take place? On February 26 from 09:00 to 21:00 local time How much does the ticket cost? Anyone buying a ticket has to pay about €11.99. Each ticket buyer can choose between the Silver or Gold edition.
In the following table, we show you the contents of the GO Tour: Johto at a glance and whether they are available without a ticket or only with a ticket. After that, we will go into individual points in more detail.
What do we know about the research? It is clear that you will be working with Professor Willow in the special research. The goal is to strengthen friendships with other trainers and learn more about the Johto region.
You are also supposed to make new friendships. Make sure to save our article on how to make new friendships in Pokémon GO. Part of the research also revolves around discovering new places.
The tasks include:
Catching various Pokémon
Evolving Pokémon
Earn Stardust
Take GO Snapshots
Defeat Grunts from Team GO Rocket
Celebi plays an important role in the GO Tour: Johto
What are the rewards? Niantic promises to reward you with evolution items and mysterious radar parts. Additionally, there will be Pokémon encounters with a shiny Gyarados and Celebi. If you catch Celebi during the event, it will know the attack Leaf Storm.
Masterwork Research
What is it? The Masterwork Research for the Johto Tour is automatically unlocked for ticket holders. From Niantic, we know that you “can work on it for a long time.” It sounds like it is not research meant to be completed during the event.
What are the rewards? Through the research, you will encounter Apex Shadow Ho-Oh and Apex Shadow Lugia. It does not matter whether you chose the gold or silver edition. Ho-Oh will then know an enhanced form of the attack Sacred Fire, and Lugia an enhanced form of Aeroblast.

Blue Essence is an important currency in League of Legends, used to purchase Champions or additional rune pages. It was previously known as IP. We at MeinMMO will tell you how to get Blue Essence quickly.
How to quickly obtain Blue Essence? The fastest and easiest way is through account level ups in the game (Summoner level).
For each level up from level 5, you receive a Champion Capsule. This provides at least 270 and up to 725 Blue Essence through direct rewards and the disenchanted Champion shards.
Alternatives include:
First win of the day – Grants you 50 Blue Essence and resets every 20 hours
Hextech Chests – Also grant you Champion shards, but only with luck
Quests during an event
Tokens from an event that can be exchanged for Blue Essence along with special rewards like icons or ward skins
Earn Blue Essence through Level-Ups
How does this work exactly? For each level up from level 5, you get a Champion Capsule. Each capsule contains:
1-3 random Champion shards
Irregularly as a bonus between 90 and 260 Blue Essence
From level 30, there is additionally a Glorious Champion Capsule every 10 levels, which guarantees rare and multiple Champion shards. Up to 2,120 Blue Essence are possible in one capsule.
The Champion Capsules that you receive for each level-up.
The Champion shards have three functions, two of which provide or save you Blue Essence:
On one hand, you can unlock the respective Champion for less Blue Essence than usual using the shard. Vayne, who usually costs 4,800 Blue Essence, can thus be unlocked for 2,880 Essence.
On the other hand, you can disenchant the Champion shard. This directly provides you with a lot of Blue Essence.
Thirdly, you can use the shard and temporarily unlock the respective Champion for 7 days. However, this is usually not worthwhile.
The amount of Blue Essence depends on the price of the Champion in the shop. Sivir costs 450 Blue Essence and gives only 90 when disenchanted. Vayne, on the other hand, costs 4,800 Blue Essence and the shard can be disenchanted for 960 Essence.
If you get Vayne as a Champion shard, you can unlock or disenchant her.
How do I level up fast in LoL? You gain the most experience per game minute in ARAMs, a special game mode where players only play on one lane and must play a random Champion.
For the first win of the day, you also get 450 experience points, which you should try to take advantage of daily if possible.
Until level 10, you also receive full experience points in matches against bots. So if you want to effectively level a new account early on, you can do this through bot matches at the beginning.
The shop also offers EP boosts from Riot Games:
There are boosts that simply provide more experience overall. These last between 1 and 14 days.
There are boosts that only provide additional experience for a win. These last between 3 and 40 wins.
Get Blue Essence without Level-Ups
How do the alternative methods work? The first win of the day is probably self-explanatory. It does not matter which mode (Normal, Ranked, or ARAM) you choose, but you must win against real players, not bots.
The Hextech Chests, on the other hand, are a bit trickier:
You receive Hextech Chests,
when you achieve rank S in a match against other players.
with some luck if another player on your team achieves S.
through special event quests.
The keys for the chests are earned through the Honor system.
However, Hextech Chests and keys can also be bought in the shop for real money.
The seasonal rewards, on the other hand, depend on the currently running events.
What do I need Blue Essence for? The currency Blue Essence is primarily used to purchase Champions. However, even if you already own all (favorite) Champions, you can buy useful content with the essence:
Additional rune pages
Improved Champion Masteries at level 6 or 7
Chromas for certain skins
Changing the Summoner name
In addition, the event “Essence Wonderland” takes place every year. Here, you can find particularly many Chromas, Icons, Emotes, and even an exclusive skin that you can only buy with Blue Essence. The event takes place every May/June and during the pre-season in November.

Another frequently asked question about LoL is how long the longest matches have lasted. We will tell you:
Square Enix announced that they will incorporate NFTs and crypto into their games in the future. Players of Final Fantasy XIV then became concerned that their MMORPG could be affected as well. The head of FFXIV has now responded to this.
This is what Naoki Yoshida says: In the last producer stream, FFXIV director Yoshida spoke about the future of his MMORPG in the coming years. In addition to the big graphics update, which will be introduced gradually, he also mentioned the topic of NFTs.
In the New Year’s letter to investors, the CEO of Square Enix stated that the company would focus on NFTs and crypto in 2022. This worried many FFXIV players, who would rather not see these features in their game.
Yoshida has now made a clear statement on the issue during the producer stream:
Based on how FFXIV is designed, we do not plan to incorporate any NFT elements into the game. So if any of you are concerned or anxious about this, I can clearly say at this point that we have no plans for NFTs in FFXIV. […]
Naoki Yoshida
This is what the voices on reddit and in forums say: The community received the announcement positively. Some players were relieved, while others said it was completely obvious. FFXIV lacks the necessary structure to implement NFTs.
“It was ridiculous to assume that at all. Setting up a system in FFXIV is already hard and expensive enough, let alone a crypto system.” – SorsEU
“It’s sad that this is the new ‘There will be no loot boxes in our game’ statement […]” – divineiniquity
“I mean, it’s good that they won’t come to FFXIV, but to be honest, he should have completely rejected them.” – StriderShinryu
Additionally, some players noted that Final Fantasy XIV is also available on Steam and there blockchain games have been banned. This would conflict with Steam’s platform policies.
“Before talking about money, the game must be fun.”
This is what Yoshida said as well: The FFXIV head is generally not opposed to NFTs. In the stream, he also mentioned that they represent a new financing system and are not necessarily “bad.”
He would therefore like to delve deeper into the topic, but completely outside of FFXIV:
It is an option for a new business model and I think that the framework of it could make a video game a bit more interesting. However, a specific design would be needed that could accommodate the concept of NFTs.
So if at some point an opportunity arises to go into more detail, I would like to talk about it. I think there is the potential to use it without going in the wrong or bad direction.
But before that can even happen and before discussing money or the financing of a game, it must first be fun, according to Yoshida.

Fans of Square Enix games can therefore assume that future titles from the publisher could include NFTs. This might even include the next big Final Fantasy with the number 16, which is also produced by Yoshida.
The release of Elden Ring is just around the corner, and now we also know when you can start playing on the release day.
Elden Ring will be available on February 25 on Steam, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S, and the community is already quite excited.
Now, publisher Bandai Namco and developer FromSoftware have revealed the exact launch times on their official Twitter account and when you can start playing on Friday.
Update, February 25, 00:10: If you still see a gray box on Steam, you should restart Steam. This should make the game available.
Currently, the anticipation is huge. The Elden Ring subreddit is overflowing with various memes, speculations, and discussions around possible game content.
An insider report from the notorious leaker “Tom Henderson” suggests that Call of Duty: Warzone is working on events featuring exaggeratedly large monsters – King Kong and Godzilla are mentioned. What this is about will be explained to you on MeinMMO.
Call of Duty: Warzone has rarely stood out with special events so far. The Halloween spectacles are quite funny and the in-game announcements of the new CODs also provide a special variety.
But those are just 2 dates a year. Otherwise, Warzone has been rather weak in this direction – or even irritated players with an annoying Christmas monster.
According to the report from the established leaker “Tom Henderson” (formerly LongSensation), the events in Warzone could soon become bigger. Much bigger. King Kong and Godzilla big.
Kaijū Attack on Caldera? Leaker considers it possible
What was in his report? Henderson wrote an exclusive report for the American site Xfire.com (via xfire.com).
The leaker explains that he stumbled upon concept art of King Kong and Godzilla in connection with the current Season 2 of Warzone.
Henderson believes that over the years he has seen hundreds of such absurd concept arts and it rarely leads to a release. However, in the current case, the facts are somewhat different.
Because the images were related to Season 2. His experience in reviewing leaked images tells him: There might be more to it.
How sure is Henderson? In the report on Xfire, the leaker seems quite optimistic:
It is unclear whether the current Warzone title can support such bold plans. But if that is the case, we might soon see 120-meter monsters in Caldera.
The leaker depends the event start on the technology of Warzone. If the graphics engine cooperates, giant monsters are quite conceivable for Henderson.
In the report, he also elaborates that the already announced “Warzone 2” could place a much greater focus on events than the current predecessor. Henderson expects mega-events that will be inspired by Fortnite at the latest in the sequel.
The insider also mentions a “Jurassic Park” event for the current Warzone. Something might be planned for the summer.
All information provided in this article is based on leaks and nothing has been officially confirmed. However, the prospect of more and bigger events in Warzone is a positive one.
It would also be plausible to see a deeper collaboration with “Attack on Titans”. There are already cosmetic bundles of the popular anime in the game, and the titans also provide excellent giant monsters.
Feel free to leave a comment about whether you would celebrate such mega-events or which monsters you would like to see in Warzone.
The MMORPG Lost Ark has been playable in the West for almost 2 weeks now. What do you think of the cash shop in the game? Do you consider the content to be pay-to-win or not?
Since the announcement of the release of Lost Ark in the West, there have been concerns within the MMO community about whether the highly anticipated game will be pay-to-win.
The publisher Amazon has previously commented on this issue and emphasized that the shop will be “fair, fun, and completely optional.” Now Lost Ark is available to us, and players can form their own opinions about the shop’s content.
This is the shop of Lost Ark: In the cash shop of Lost Ark, you can purchase a large variety of different items for all situations. There are not only purely cosmetic items but also those that help with progression in the MMORPG.
The following items are available in the shop:
Premium currencies Royal and Blue Crystals that can be exchanged for the in-game trading currency Gold
Outfits and Pets that grant status attributes
Mounts
Items for housing
Tickets for completing certain activities (dailies, quests, etc.)
in limited quantities upgrade items for equipment
Tickets for additional character slots, name changes, etc.
Additionally, there is the “subscription service” crystalline aura that grants the bearer a buff: more EXP, no teleport costs, more resource points, etc.
With so many contents, opinions about the shop vary. While it is completely okay and fair for some players, others clearly see it as pay-to-win.
And what about you?
This is how you can vote: You can vote in the survey tool below. Everyone can only cast one vote, and the vote cannot be undone.
So tell us: What experiences have you had so far with the cash shop of Lost Ark? And at what point do you consider a game to be pay-to-win? Does it have to affect PvP, or is it enough if you can buy any gameplay advantages?
Write to us in the comments why Lost Ark is pay-to-win for you or why it isn’t.
In Fortnite players often get lost in matches and forget how to level up their Battle Pass effectively. Therefore, we show you methods in Chapter 3 on how to efficiently and easily obtain your additional styles for your skins from the Battle Pass.
What kind of tips are these? These tips are easy and quick alternatives. We will show you ways to gather your XP in a varied manner, so that you can earn your bonus styles of the Battle Pass without any pressure.
4 tips to boost your Battle Pass
These are four tips. However, one of them requires the paid “Save the World” mode, which brings you into the PvE world of Fortnite. We will explain how you will earn the XP.
1. Save the World – XP for defeated zombies
The PvE mode of Fortnite offers variation
How do I get XP in Save the World? If you treated yourself to the PvE mode during its prime time, you can blow the old dust off and start again. Epic Games announced at the end of 2021 that you can also level your Battle Pass during missions in Save the World.
You can chill out with your friends in a few rounds of “Defense” and take a break from the usually sweaty matches in Battle Royale. So take your friends with you, build your storm base, and defend it with your life.
After completed rounds, you will also receive additional XP for your Battle Pass. This XP will be automatically added to your total.
Agents have the chance to vote out suspicious candidates and thus secure their victory. However, beware, innocent players who were banned remain as observers and cannot interfere in the game.
How do I gain the most XP? The Imposter mode not only brings fresh air to Fortnite but also a lot of XP. So, to earn the most XP as an agent, you should do the following:
Complete tasks
Ban imposters
Win the match
As an imposter, you need to do the following things to earn a lot of XP:
Sabotage players
Kill players
Prolong the match
Successfully finish the match
This mode is particularly worth it, as it is often a lot of fun to mislead other players and decide a match in your favor.
3. Many kills and play matches
The well-known “Battle Royale” mode
What should I do? If you are not in the mood for other modes, you can also earn a lot in Battle Royale. To do this, you need to pay attention to a few things:
Open many chests, ammunition boxes, coolers, or other containers
Eliminate many opponents (animals are included)
Coordinate for assist kills in your team
Complete your daily tasks and quests
Survive storm phases – stay alive as long as possible
Land as the first player
Complete milestones
Finish the match with a victory
There are many things to consider, but if you should consider this option, you should pay attention to the mentioned points. You will notice a significant difference when you have opened 5 or 20 chests in a match.
Is there a bonus? Try to get a crown as well. If you have one in your possession, try to achieve as much as possible in a match. Many kills and good placements will be counted double.
4. Creative mode – Easy and relaxed way to get XP
The relaxed resting on a lonely island
How do I get XP in Creative mode? The Creative mode offers a relaxed alternative for gaining XP if you have no time to farm. If you don’t have time to play matches, you can turn on your console or PC, send your character into the creative lobby, and wait there for 75 minutes. You will receive a total of 60,000 XP for just standing around and can repeat this daily.
What level do I need to be to unlock all styles? If you have honestly earned your levels, you need to be Level 153 to make it to the end of the season. (As of February 21, 2022)
The site fortnitexp calculates the necessary experience points and divides that into the remaining time available to you. Daily, you must farm approximately 142,404 XP as Level 153 to reach Level 200 by the end of the season.
What do you think about the XP system in Fortnite? Do you find it a chore again in Chapter 3 to farm for styles and cosmetic items? Let us know!
