Pokémon GO starts today Bidiza event – Here’s what’s inside

Franzi Korittke Franzi Korittke Reading time 3 minutes

Today, on June 25, 2021, the Bidiza event starts in Pokémon GO. We at MeinMMO have summarized all the information about the event for you.

What kind of event is this? Originally, Niantic announced this event as a surprise event. It has been known for a few days now that everything during the event will revolve around the Pokémon Bidiza and its evolution Bidifas.

When does the Bidiza event start? The event starts on Friday, June 25, 2021, at 10:00 AM local time. You will have almost a week to take advantage of the Bidiza event before it ends again on July 1, 2021, at 8:00 PM local time.

What to expect during the Bidiza event in Pokémon GO

During the event period, you will have the opportunity to encounter a variety of Bidiza. Whether in the wild, raids, rewards, or with Team Rocket – they will be everywhere. Furthermore, with a bit of luck, you may also have the chance to encounter a shiny specimen.

Additionally, Niantic has planned some special features and bonuses for Pokémon GO trainers. We have taken a look at what these will be and summarized them for you.

Special Charge Attacks

As Niantic has already announced, Bidiza with various charge attacks will be available during the event (via pokemongolive.com). These charge attacks are event-related and cannot otherwise be learned by this Pokémon. We have summarized when you can find Bidiza with which attack for you:

Event Charge AttackTime Period
Shadow BallJune 25, 2021, 10:00 AM to June 26, 2021, 11:59 PM
ThunderboltJune 27, 2021, 12:00 AM to June 28, 2021, 11:59 PM
Icy WindJune 29, 2021, 12:00 AM to June 30, 2021, 11:59 PM

If you want to teach your Bidiza one of the above-mentioned charge attacks, you will again have the opportunity on July 1, 2021, between 10:00 AM and 8:00 PM local time. With the help of a Charge TM, it is then possible to change the attack. After that, it can only be changed using a Charged TM.

Bidifas, the evolution of Bidiza, will also receive a special charge attack during the event period. If you evolve a Bidiza into Bidifas during this time, that Pokémon will learn the charge attack Hyper Beam.

Special Bonuses during the Bidiza Event

In addition to Bidiza with special charge attacks, Pokémon GO trainers can also look forward to a few bonuses. You will receive special Bidiza stickers from gifts and at PokéStops. The probably much more interesting bonus is the increased catch XP, which Niantic has announced (via pokemongolive.com). But this is also time-limited.

  • double catch XP: June 25, 2021, 10:00 AM to June 26, 2021, 11:59 PM
  • triple catch XP: June 27, 2021, 12:00 AM to June 28, 2021, 11:59 PM
  • quadruple catch XP: June 29, 2021, 12:00 AM to June 30, 2021, 11:59 PM

Who is the Bidiza Event for?

Especially interesting about the Bidiza event is the increased catch XP. Trainers who still need some experience points for the next level-up should take the opportunity of the increased XP on these days and catch Pokémon diligently.

However, collectors of Pokémon with special event attacks as well as Shiny hunters among the trainers will also get their money’s worth at this event. Unfortunately, Bidiza and its evolution Bidifas are not suitable for use in PVP or raids due to their poor stats.

If you are more interested in Pokémon GO this might also interest you:

What is your opinion on the upcoming Bidiza event? Will you take advantage of the increased catch XP or are you hoping more for a Shiny? Feel free to let us know in the comments right here at MeinMMO.

In July, you can also expect the Pokémon GO Fest 2021. All info about date, ticket, Pokémon, and bonuses has been summarized for you.

Pokémon GO shows legendary bonus for GO Fest 2021 – suddenly much better

Max Handwerk Max Handwerk Reading time 3 minutes

The GO Fest 2021 is getting closer and now has a really good bonus related to legendary Pokémon. Those who have missed some legendary monsters in Pokémon GO can get them at the GO Fest.

This was announced: On the second day of the GO Fest, which takes place on July 17 and 18, all legendary Pokémon that have been in the game so far will appear in Tier-5 raids. That means: On Sunday, July 18, 2021, you have the chance to encounter every single legendary monster in Pokémon GO.

The raid monsters will also appear for players who do not have a ticket. So you don’t even need an event ticket to catch the legendary monsters. However, there will be some advantages for ticket holders at GO Fest 2021:

  • There are an additional 10,000 XP per raid won
  • You can get up to 10 raid passes when spinning photo discs at gyms
  • A limited research will also provide up to 8 remote raid passes
  • In addition, there will be an event box in the shop with three remote raid passes that will be available on Sunday, July 18.

So ticket holders can theoretically get a total of 21 raid passes to hunt for legendary monsters.

When will which legendary Pokémon appear?

This is how the legendary raid day works: The Pokémon will not appear all at once, but spread throughout the day. There will be a total of four changing thematic hours that will run twice during the event. During these periods, specific monsters will appear in the raids.

  • The Wind Hour (10:00 AM to 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM)
    • Mewtwo
    • Ho-Oh
    • Latias
    • Latios
    • Regigigas
    • Giratina in its Altered Forme
    • Cresselia
    • Thundurus
    • Virizion
  • The Lava Hour (11:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM)
    • Zapdos
    • Entei
    • Regirock
    • Groudon
    • Heatran
    • Reshiram
    • Landorus in its Therian Forme
    • Yveltal
    • Terrakion
  • The Frost Hour (12:00 PM to 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM)
    • Articuno
    • Suicune
    • Lugia
    • Regice
    • Kyogre
    • Palkia
    • Kyurem
    • In addition: Mesprit, Uxie, and Azelf in their usual regions
  • The Thunder Hour (1:00 PM to 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM)
    • Zapdos
    • Raikou
    • Registeel
    • Rayquaza
    • Dialga
    • Thundurus in its Therian Forme
    • Zekrom
    • Xerneas
    • Kabalium

Update: Via Twitter, Niantic later announced that Terrakion, Kobalium, and Virizion will also be available at the GO Fest. We have added these three monsters to the list.

Important: Mysterious Pokémon such as Mew, Jirachi, or Victini do not count as legendary Pokémon that will appear in raids during the event. However, you can get the new mysterious Pokémon Meloetta at GO Fest 2021.

A really strong bonus for the GO Fest 2021

Who benefits from the bonus? With the legendary Pokémon, the GO Fest suddenly becomes interesting for all players who missed some of the specimens. For example, because they haven’t been available for a long time, or simply because the time windows for the appropriate raids were missed. The opportunity to catch all legendaries at once has not occurred in Pokémon GO until now.

They are not only interesting from a collector’s perspective, but often belong to the best attackers in Pokémon GO. Reshiram, for example, is a top Fire attacker, and the same applies to Zekrom in the Electric category.

Pokémon GO Reshiram Zekrom Kyurem Title
Those who missed monsters like Reshiram or Zekrom get a new chance

And Pokémon GO: Where to get Mewtwo? We explain it! – after all, it’s one of the absolute best monsters in Pokémon GO. The GO Fest now provides the opportunity to collect candy for the most useful legendaries. In addition, you can also hunt the monsters wonderfully as Shinies.

More about Pokémon GO on MeinMMO:

This is what the GO Fest looks like now: It has been known that Saturday would bring habitats with special spawns. There will be a special research, several collector researches, and a focus on music themes.

On Sunday, however, it was only known that it would be focused on raids. Now, with the legendary bonus, we also know how it will look. You can find all information about GO Fest 2021 here.

Windows 11 has been officially presented, bringing a surprising feature for mobile gamers

Benedikt Schlotmann Benedikt Schlotmann Reading time 3 minutes

Microsoft officially presented Windows 11 at its “Windows Event”. One feature that could especially appeal to mobile gamers is included.

Microsoft introduced the successor to Windows 10 at its official Windows event. In addition to a new design and many other adjustments, Microsoft showcased a special feature that could benefit mobile gamers.

Windows 11 is said to officially be able to run Android apps. This could be a great feature for mobile gamers who do not want to pull out their phone.

However, there may be some limitations that we are currently unaware of.

Android apps are coming to Windows, but not in the way you think

How exactly does it work? Microsoft integrates the Amazon App Store into its own store. This way, you can easily install Android apps on your Windows PC.

There will probably still not be native support, as Windows will use an emulator in the background to let you use the apps on Windows 11. Developers are referring to “Intel Bridge” here.

Here we do not know yet what the minimum requirements will be for running Android apps, as the hardware must also support Intel’s Bridge technology.

Android apps on Windows 11 are also a significant response to Apple’s ability to run iOS apps on macOS.

First official images show the integration of the Amazon App Store into Windows 11.

What does this bring? Users who primarily play and work on PC and occasionally use an app on their smartphone may in the future be able to use their apps directly on their PC or tablet computer with Windows 11. However, Microsoft aims to offer even more features for gamers with Windows 11.

Do you want to quickly log into your favorite game and collect your daily rewards? This way, you wouldn’t even need to log in on the phone. However, how exactly the integration and, for example, the support for mouse and keyboard works is still unknown.

The biggest advantage, however, is primarily for developers, as they will not have to pay Microsoft any fees for usage.

The TikTok app on Windows 11 as an Android app.

High fees from app stores have long been a thorn in the side of developers

Anyone who wanted to submit an app to the Google Play Store or Apple’s App Store had to give up a portion of their profits to the platform. In contrast, anyone now publishing Android apps via Windows is expected not to pay any fees.

Developers refused to pay fees: Various developer teams have long complained about the high fees of different platforms. In August 2020, Epic decided to sell the currency V-Bucks directly in the iOS version of the game to circumvent the high fees from the App Store.

Apple and Google then removed the Fortnite app from the store because Epic’s approach violated the platform’s terms of service. However, Epic did not want to accept this and sued both companies because it did not want to accept the ban from the stores.

Pokémon GO brings big raid update – This is how your battles will change

Max Handwerk Max Handwerk Reading time 2 minutes

In Pokémon GO, there are new features in Raid battles. Among other things, the raids will be visually enhanced – and there will also be rewards for the best trainers.

This is what’s happening in Pokémon GO: As outlined by the developers at Niantic in an announcement, they have come up with a few new features to celebrate the four-year anniversary of Raid battles in Pokémon GO.

On one hand, several yet unspecified quality-of-life improvements have been announced – small elements that should improve the raid experience.

In addition, there is a visual overhaul of the raids. On one hand, the user interface is to be adjusted. On the other hand, raids will now take place in a brand new raid stadium.

When are the raid updates coming? By now, the updates are already available in the game. This also applies to the other changes – as the visual adjustments are not the only ones.

New achievements reward the best trainers in raids

These are trainer achievements: Some time ago, dataminers discovered hints in the code of Pokémon GO that raid achievements could soon be coming to the game. Niantic has now introduced this feature.

For certain actions, trainers will now be highlighted after a raid. Trainers who have dealt the most damage or helped their teammates with Mega Evolutions through boosts will be showcased.

In addition, a whole range of achievements can be earned after a battle. If you earn the achievement for the first time, you will receive a medal that can then be leveled up as usual. Dataminers have already uncovered this feature.

Pokémon GO - Medal
Soon you can earn medals for raid achievements

Achievements are available for among others:

  • Trainers who use the last attack in the raid
  • Deal the most damage
  • Keep a single Pokémon in battle the longest
  • Use the largest Pokémon in battle
  • Participate in the raid from the furthest distance
  • Use a Mega Evolution
  • Change the avatar’s outfit or pose
  • Use the most charged attacks in battle

There are now not only rewards that make raids worthwhile, but also the new achievements.

However, there is a new event coming up: Find out what’s in the Bidiza event here.

Black Desert: How do I get a horse?

Patrick Schulz Patrick Schulz Reading time 4 minutes

In Black Desert Online, horses are indispensable as riding animals. On the one hand, there is no fast travel system in BDO, and on the other hand, they serve as pull power for heavy carts. It is even possible to participate in mounted combat. In this article, we at MeinMMO explain how you can acquire these noble creatures.

In general, there are several ways to obtain a mount in the MMORPG. You can catch and tame horses yourself, buy breeding animals from other players, and even rent or breed horses yourself.

How do I get a horse? To acquire a mount, all you need to do is visit the stable master in the nearest town and buy a riding license or a draft horse for 15,000 silver. The latter cannot be ridden, but only hitched to carts. How to quickly earn silver, we reveal here.

Alternatively, you can access the horse market through the same NPC and purchase the horse you desire. Additionally, you have the option to sort the offered horses by ranks, talents, and gender. With a bit of luck, the horses offered by players might even be cheaper than the NPC’s.

Can I rent a horse? You can rent horses from friends, but only those ranked up to 8, and for a duration limited to one week. However, this function is rarely used because it is not worth it due to the limited time and fees.

Where do I get my first mount? You receive your first mount, a donkey, free through the Black Spirit questline. The experience of the donkey increases when you ride on it. There are three types of donkeys with different colors, but mules have no gender in BDO and cannot be bred.

All about horse taming in Black Desert Online

What do I need to tame a horse? To tame a horse in BDO, you must first meet two requirements. 

The first is that you must have reached at least level 5 in the training category. You can access this menu with the “P” key. To improve your training, you need to level up your horse first. The easiest way to do this is with automatic pathfinding. We recommend beginners to start with the donkey, which is obtained as an early quest reward.

The second requirement is a few tools you need for taming. This includes a lasso, which can be purchased from the stable master. Here, we recommend buying at least 20 or even 30 lasso units, as the amount decreases with each taming attempt.

Cubes of sugar are also important to keep the horse calm while taming. These can be easily made yourself. By searching for NPCs, you can buy 1 mineral water and 10 sugar cane from the cooking goods merchant and heat the items with the “L” key.

Capturing horses in Black Desert isn’t that easy. Source: YT-Melideas.

How do I tame a horse? Once you have found your suitable place and spotted some wild animals, proceed as follows. Important: You must not approach too closely, and beginners should be particularly patient during the first attempts since the mini-game can be a bit tricky. Moreover, you will need to use more sugar if it tries to break free with a lower training level:

  • Take your lasso in hand with a right-click
  • Move slowly towards the horse with the W key 
  • Activate left-click when the red crosshair appears
  • If you aimed poorly or the animal leaps forward, you must start over.
  • Move slowly and cautiously towards the horse again
  • Wait until the horse raises its front hooves
  • The mini-game starts; confirm with the left mouse button
  • By pressing the space bar at the right moment, you calm the horse
  • Wait until the horse raises its front hooves again
  • Spam the space bar to land in the right area of the horizontal bar
  • Approach the wild horse slowly and cautiously again
  • Use a sugar cube when it raises its front hooves; then it won’t run away
  • On average, you need to repeat this process 3 times, and then the animal belongs to you

Once you have successfully tamed the horse, you need to go to the stable master with it and register it to yourself. You will need to enter a name for the animal and find out its gender – which is important for breeding, which we will explain to you in another guide in the future.

More about Black Desert on MeinMMO:

Leveling Horses

How do I level my horse AFK? You can raise your mount’s level while you are not at the computer. To do this, you use automatic pathfinding and ensure that the circuit is large enough to allow your horse to gallop. If the animal cannot speed up due to a too-small route, you will not gain experience.

It is important to pack enough carrots before your automatic ride because your horse consumes stamina, and when it is exhausted, it negatively impacts your experience gain. You can simply check the box for “Automatically use carrot,” and your steed will run in circles and eat by itself.

Interesting Facts about Horses in Black Desert Online

What else do I need to know? Lastly, here are a few additional pieces of information that will make breeding and leveling mounts easier for you:

  • Initially, you have limited space in the stable; a maximum of three animals fit in. You should invest contribution points here to quickly obtain a horse farm. The higher the stable level, the more animals fit in.
  • Never buy breeding horses on the market that do not possess breeding points.
  • You can sell your horses at the horse market. The price depends on their level, abilities, and gender. Logically, you can offer mares at a higher price.
  • You can buy a mount breeding set in the pearl shop for 333 (stallion) and 640 pearls (mare) to reset the number of points.
  • You gain five percent more experience when wearing the silver-embroidered trainer clothing. You can either buy this on the marketplace or craft it yourself. The luxury clothing merchant has an item for you that even grants you ten percent experience.
  • If you are often galloping with the horse, it consumes a lot of energy – you can refill it with carrots from the stable master. Alternatively, you can set up a carrot field.
  • By the way, you can level horses while trading. Just hitch them to the cart, and the experience comes almost by itself.
  • For mounted combat, you need a stirrup, saddle, harness, horse head, and of course, horseshoes to increase your animal’s attributes.

WoW: To get the best loot, you will soon have to master harder dungeons

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

The requirements for the best loot in World of Warcraft increase with Patch 9.1. We reveal how to get the best loot in the future.

In World of Warcraft, there are many ways to get good equipment. One of them is the “Mythic+” dungeons, the hardest that WoW has to offer for 5 players. But in order to grab the best loot in Patch 9.1 Chains of Domination, you will have to face a slightly tougher challenge in the future. The highest item level is only available if you can also handle the difficulty of “+15”.

What has changed? In Patch 9.1, you must now complete a dungeon with the difficulty of “+15” in order to receive the best possible reward from the weekly cache. Only then can you ensure that you receive a really good reward corresponding to the maximum possible item level on the following Wednesday.

In return, there is the best reward that can be directly obtained from dungeons, but already at “Mythic+14”. So the requirement is slightly lowered here.

What rewards will there be in the future? The item level from the weekly chest and the “Mythic+” dungeons increases in Patch 9.1. The following list reveals what reward you can expect in the future:

Keystone LevelDungeon RewardCache Reward
Mythic+2210226
Mythic+3213226
Mythic+4216226
Mythic+5220229
Mythic+6223229
Mythic+7223233
Mythic+8226236
Mythic+9226236
Mythic+10229239
Mythic+11229242
Mythic+12233246
Mythic+13233246
Mythic+14236249
Mythic+15236252

More about World of Warcraft can be found here:

How was it before? Currently, it is still the case that completing a “Mythic+14” dungeon is sufficient to pull the maximum item level of 226 from the chest in the coming week. The limit seemed a bit strange since normally “+15” has always been the threshold needed for achievements. With Patch 9.1, this is finally consistent and easier to understand.

What do you think of this adjustment? A good thing that finally makes the system more logical? Or annoying and just more hassle to get good loot?

Fortnite: How to place Boomboxes in Believer Beach – All Locations

Eilyn Rapp Eilyn Rapp Reading time 2 minutes

In Fortnite: Battle Royale you have to place boomboxes in Believer Beach. At least that is one of the legendary challenges from week 3 of season 7. We will show you where the boomboxes are located and how to complete the task.

What kind of task is this? The summer event has started in Fortnite and a big welcome party is being held for the aliens. In week 3 of the season, you need to place 2 boomboxes to create the right party atmosphere.

We will show you where you need to place the boomboxes to complete the task quickly and get the party started soon.

Place Boomboxes in Believer Beach – Locations

Where do you need to go? For this task, you should head to Believer Beach. With the start of season 7, not only the name of the location has changed, but also the location itself – this is one of the changes that have occurred on the map.

The welcome party for the aliens is taking place in Believer Beach, and you are supposed to set up boomboxes there. There are 4 locations you can visit for this task – however, you only need 2 boxes for the task. You can find them in Believer Beach here:

  • By the “Crop Circle” that was left on the beach of Believer Beach
  • On the dance floor located in the middle of Believer Beach
  • On the left side, before you head to the long pier
  • On the road, in front of the trailer park
Here are the boomboxes in Believer Beach

What do you need to do? To place the boomboxes, all you have to do is stand in front of the desired item and interact with it. You will recognize the boxes because they glow blue. Once you have placed them, they will become a permanent part of the decoration in those locations.

Once you have done this and placed both boomboxes, the task will be considered complete. After that, you will receive your earned experience points.

You will need these points if you want to fully unlock the battle pass of season 7 .

German Twitch streamer decodes the new secret code from Destiny 2

Philipp Hansen Philipp Hansen Reading time 3 minutes

In Destiny 2, a mysterious case is engaging players. The German content creator Dr. BadBeard has discovered a secret message that is now intriguing the master detectives of the community.

This is about the secret:

Immediately, speculation about the 45 cases began. The Guardians wondered: is this just PR for the ongoing Season 14 of Destiny 2 or is there more to it? Because Bungie is known for presenting riddles to the Guardians – some exotic puzzles take years to solve. The first breakthrough was achieved by the German content creator Dr. BadBeard, as he listened closely.

On the trail of the secret from Season 14 with good ears

This is the secret message: Dr. BadBeard, – or simply Simon – examined all the contents closely (in the title image). Especially the old-school cassette aroused his curiosity. And hidden there, alongside the soundtrack for Season 14, was also a secret story.

We hear a tale from Crow. The character formerly known as Uldren recounts his time as Spiders’ “servant”. As Crow wanders aimlessly through the tangled bay, he also meets some Eliksni (Fallen). The parties do not understand each other, suddenly music is heard, and a party night begins. The Eliksni dance with their four arms in the air to a song by Paul McCartney, while Crow claims to have one of the best nights of his life – all without understanding a word.

Check out the video here to see how Dr. BadBeard shares his discoveries:

How did he find that out? According to his own statement, Simon is a hobby music producer, enjoys working on electronic tracks, and gets excited about music in video games. Due to his hobby, he has the necessary equipment to create a spectrogram from the cassette and examined the seemingly almost empty B-side of the cassette. Once digitized, the analog medium ultimately revealed the story of Crow among the Eliksni.

Simon thanks Bungie for considering him, even though he also expresses criticism about Destiny 2. He then notes that you can also experience the party from Crow’s story in the game: Destiny 2 now has a place where Fallen dance to Paul McCartney.

But what it all ultimately means and what the mysterious whispers really are, which can still be heard at the end, unfortunately, he does not know. Now the master detectives should help.

The “Wizards” of Destiny 2 are just starting to puzzle

What does this mean now? Dr. BadBeard immediately posted his discovery at Raid-Secrets (via reddit). Because, according to him, this is where the “wizards of the Destiny community” live, who love to crack Bungie’s riddles.

And indeed, the detectives immediately dive into the new data. There is a flood of technical terms and analyses about vacant spaces, notes that need to be played backwards, and more through reddit. Initial insights point to Vex sounds, Quria, the corrupted mind, and even the Glass Vault…

We might have to wait a while longer for the solution to the puzzle.

More about Destiny puzzles:

What do you think about such puzzles that Bungie keeps the Guardians busy with constantly? It is amazing how persistent the Destiny community is and in how many different areas there is expertise. Do you think the secret story on the cassette is just an Easter egg, or does it actually have something to do with the story of Season 14? Do you believe this is just the beginning of a new, big puzzle? Let us know in the comments.

Leak in Pokémon GO reveals new Platinum Medal – For the Raid Stadium?

Franzi Korittke Franzi Korittke Reading time 3 minutes

Weeks ago, data miners discovered some new features in Pokémon GO. Now, further details about new medals in the game have been revealed. We have looked into what these medals are and summarized the information for you.

What’s new? As was revealed in the last leak by data miners regarding the current update 0.211.0, there will soon be new raid achievements and a raid stadium in Pokémon GO. In this context, the first images of new medals have also been found (via reddit.com).

These are the new medals in Pokémon GO

As with other medals in the game, these will again come in bronze, silver, gold, and platinum. Each image shows a trophy in the color of the medal. The typical raid symbol is featured on it. Floral wreaths embellish the badge around the trophy.

You can achieve the bronze medal with just a single interaction. For the silver, you need 50 interactions, and for the gold, 200 interactions. To secure the platinum medal, however, 500 interactions are required.

What can you earn the medals for?

The specific reasons for which you can earn the medals are not clearly revealed from the data miners’ information. However, the medal strongly resembles the previous medal for won raids based on its appearance.

For this reason, it is presumed that these may be related to the announced raid stadium. It is also conceivable that this medal will be given in connection with the announced raid achievements.

No official information about these medals and the implementation of raid achievements and the raid stadium in Pokémon GO is currently available. As soon as there are new updates on this, we will of course inform you here at MeinMMO.

What does the community say? On reddit, users have split opinions. Some trainers are rather unimpressed, while others, like Elrathias, are looking forward to another platinum medal (via reddit.com). Reddit user Duarjo, on the other hand, wishes for a way to showcase their new medals in the future (via reddit.com).

What else has been found in Pokémon GO?

In addition to the new images of the raid medals, new visual representations related to the raid stadium in Pokémon GO have also been provided. However, these changes are not yet visible in the game (via reddit.com).

Additionally, two more gold medals have been discovered (via reddit.com). These include a badge awarded for your participation in the Pokémon GO Fest 2021 and another medal associated with the TCG trading card game.

For this reason, you will receive a promo code along with the trading card of Professor Willow, which you can use for Pokémon GO.

With this promo code, a special task related to the mysterious Pokémon Meltan will be unlocked for you in the game. Based on the images found by the data miners, it is assumed that you will receive this medal for participating in this special research.

New World reveals the most dangerous endgame area yet: Breakberg is only for the strongest

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 2 minutes

In the Aeternum Tour, the developers of New World regularly provide insights into the various areas of the game. The latest video focuses on one of the endgame zones. We at MeinMMO were allowed to exclusively publish this video in advance.

What does the video show? The latest video in the Aeternum Tour showcases the endgame area Bruchberg. There, many of the Corrupted lurk, enemies that have been tainted by the mysterious mineral Azoth.

The area Bruchberg is divided into different zones and special locations:

  • On the way north, there is the small settlement Bergklause and to the east, the outpost Mountain’s Ascent. They serve as a refuge for players.
  • However, the Corrupted also have various fortresses under control in the area, including Caminus, which was already shown early in screenshots.
  • North of Bergklause, there is also a mine of the Corrupted, Ambusti Inferior. This mine is said to be particularly difficult to traverse due to its labyrinth system.
  • Also in Bruchberg is the cave Rotfellow Hovel, where some of the strongest opponents of Aeternum are said to roam.

The biggest challenge, however, is supposed to be Duskheim. This is the largest fortress of the Corrupted, and only the strongest players are said to be able to fight their way through.

The various zones will be thoroughly introduced to you in this video:

In recent weeks, videos of the areas have been published repeatedly. One shows an idyllic region with a powerful PvP fortress.

New World placed a great focus on new mid- and endgame content during the alpha

What is the problem with endgame and New World? During the first test in summer 2020, New World left a mixed impression. The monotonous quests were particularly criticized. But there were also great concerns regarding mid- and endgame content.

At the time of the test, the game offered only a boss fight arena, a few open-world events, one endgame area, and PvP wars for fortresses, which were only available at certain times.

However, during the alpha, these points of criticism were worked on intensively:

Whether these contents are sufficient to keep players engaged in the long term will be shown in the weeks after the release, which takes place on August 31, while there will already be a beta for New World in July.

What do you think of New World in general, the area Bruchberg, and the endgame content? Feel free to write it in the comments.

Overall, New World has increasingly developed into a theme park MMORPG in recent months. We at MeinMMO do not find this bad: New World is becoming more and more of a theme park MMORPG and that’s a good thing.

Palworld was celebrated as Pokémon with guns, developers now say: ‘Has nothing to do with Pokémon’

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 2 minutes

Pocketpair, the developers of the controversial upcoming survival game Palworld, feel misunderstood by the feedback on their game. The game is supposed to be a survival game like ARK and not a brutal Pokémon game where you have to kill and eat cute animals.

What is Palworld? Palworld looks in the trailers on Steam like a game where you run through the wilderness with guns and encounter Pokémon (called “Pals” in the game). The creatures look very similar to the little monsters from Nintendo’s franchise, and in Palworld, you can catch and tame them.

But what follows does not fit the cute flair of Pokémon at all:

  • Pals are used as labor slaves
  • In one scene, they toil as enslaved forced laborers on an assembly line, where they assemble assault rifles
  • Other scenes show how Pals are shot in the wild
  • Particularly disturbing is a situation where a player uses a Pal as a living shield in a shootout
  • You can even slaughter and eat the creatures!
https://youtu.be/EY4lyOH1_0o

What does the community say? All of this has led to a controversial discussion. Many players found the idea of shooting with Pokémon like in CoD and experiencing intense action quite cool. Other players, however, responded with sarcasm to the idea of the game, like user Top Kek:

Finally, a Pokémon game with forced labor, slavery, war crimes, weapons, eugenics, poaching, and destructible environments. Thank you Pocket Pair.

Developer feels misunderstood

What is Palworld according to the developers not? Takuro Mizobe, the lead developer at Pocketpair (known from Craftopia), is pleased with the significant support his game is receiving, but is also somewhat puzzled by what players ultimately expect from the game:

I appreciate the many positive feedbacks we have received, but I have mixed feelings about it. That’s because Palworld is actually completely different from Pokémon.

According to the developer, the game is a hardcore survival shooter that is much closer to games like ARK than to any Pokémon game.

The big difference compared to games like ARK or Conan Exiles is that in Palworld you use your Pals to accomplish tasks.

However, you are still bound by your conscience. Just because you can enslave, kill, and eat the cute Pals, doesn’t mean you have to. No one forces the player to engage in such questionable actions:

People talk about Palworld as if it were an evil game without heart, but that is not our intention. However, if you are hungry and about to die, you would do anything to survive, right? Palworld is a game where we implement a high degree of freedom, and it’s up to the players what they do.

More about new MMORPGs on MeinMMO:

The only question left is what players will do in the game when unleashed in a world full of cute little critters. Perhaps different player factions will form that will fight for the freedom of the Pals and defend them against exploitative slave traders?

Minecraft: How much bad luck can one have? Lightning strike roasts the cat

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

If the lightning strike hits your own cat in Minecraft , it is extremely bitter. A player stares blankly at the sky.

In Minecraft, there are a lot of ways to find an inglorious end. Suddenly appearing Creepers, the devastating digging into a lava lake, or overestimating one’s jumping ability. But the weather can also quickly ruin plans in Minecraft – and even roast a pet.

What happened? The player Eyt_S published a small clip from his current Minecraft world. The clip titled “What did I do to deserve this, God?” starts off rather harmless. Eyt_S is currently renovating his base and replacing the floor. Peacefully, his cat is sitting next to the house while he enjoys a snack and works on the building. The snow is gently falling, and it couldn’t be more harmonious.

Then, without warning, a thunder strikes and directs a lightning strike near Eyt_S. Although the player is missed, the lightning strikes exactly on the cat. Moments later, the message appears that the cat has gone up in flames.

Staring in disbelief, Eyt_S looks at the sky while the small spot where his cat was sitting before is still smoldering a bit.

How likely is that? Even though the incident seems like extreme bad luck – it’s actually not that unlikely, as user ChocoMilkr1098 calculates in the subreddit. Depending on how long a thunderstorm lasts in Minecraft – between half a day and a full day – the probability of lightning striking exactly where the cat was increases. In the end, he concludes that the probability, depending on the duration of the thunderstorm, is between 1:1075 and 1:2124. In other words: The chance during a thunderstorm is between 0.09% and 0.047%.

More news about Minecraft can be found here:

There could have been protection: Particularly bitter is the fact that one could have protected themselves from the lightning strike. Since the big patch 1.17, there is the new material copper, from which players can build a lightning rod. It intercepts lightning and safely channels it into the ground, preventing fire from starting. Eyt_S apparently forewent this additional protection, and as a result, a cat had to pay with its life.

Have you also experienced such an unfortunate coincidence in Minecraft with a lightning strike? Or have you been spared from such fateful lightning strikes?

New Digimon MMORPG finally shows gameplay with turn-based battles

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 3 minutes

In Korea läuft die erste Closed Beta zum neuen MMORPG Digimon Super Rumble. Erste Videos zeigen eine hübsche Spielwelt und verraten endlich Details zum Spiel. Besonders interessant ist das strategische und rundenbasierte Kampfsystem, das für MMORPGs eher unüblich ist.

What kind of game is this? Digimon Super Rumble will be a new MMORPG based on Digimon. It is being developed in Unreal Engine 4 and is intended to be inspired by the first season of the series. First images already showed iconic locations like the beach from episode 2 or the subway from episode 3.

There is a character editor where you can design your Tamer. With this, you traverse the Digiworld and can complete quests, meet other players, and battle other Digimon.

And it is precisely with these battles that the game distinguishes itself from typical MMORPGs.

Turn-based battles reminiscent of Pokémon

How do the battles work? As soon as you encounter an enemy Digimon, you will be sent to a separate battle zone. There, 3 of your Digimon will face off against the enemy. The process resembles turn-based battles and even somewhat resembles Pokémon, as you can swap your Digimon and flee from battles.

  • Each Digimon has 2 to 3 abilities and one ultimate burst skill.
  • You select the respective ability, whereby some have a casting time, which means your turn might be skipped.
  • You can pause the battle at any time and think about how you want to proceed next.
  • Some abilities of your Digimon can buff or heal your team.
  • If you have unlocked the option, your Digimon can digitize in battle and reach a higher level.
  • You can swap your 3 Digimon in battle at any time. In the beta, even defeated Digimon could be swapped, which was probably a bug.

Additionally, the Tamers themselves have an action skill with which they can activate a special buff, including more health or increased attack power for your Digimon. These are items that are consumed. If you no longer have the corresponding item, you cannot activate the buff. Therefore, you should be frugal with them.

A first glimpse into the gameplay of Digimon Super Rumble is provided by a video from YouTuber VihKun, who summarized the key information in English. You can follow the battle starting at minute 20:45:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79RQWZKK9Zc

What else do we know about Super Rumble?

  • The game world is divided into different maps with loading screens. In the beta, there were 3 areas.
  • You can theoretically own an endless number of Digimon, but only one follows you in the open world.
  • You obtain new Digimon by hatching eggs.
  • There is a Tamer level for your character and separate levels for each Digimon.
  • Each Digimon has different stats and abilities, making team-building interesting.
  • There are various costumes for your Tamer.

Beautiful for a Digimon MMO, but overall not modern

How does the game look graphically? Visually, the game makes a good, but not outstanding impression. Compared to other Digimon MMOs, Super Rumble is really nice, but otherwise it feels more like a game from the 2010s.

The game world is not super detailed, and the animations in battles seem rather clunky. Additionally, the overall performance was weak, which could be due to the beta and the fact that it was played on Korean servers.

More about MMORPGs on MeinMMO:

What was missing in the beta? In the beta, some features of the MMORPG were not yet available. For instance, options for forming parties with other players or content like dungeons were missing.

What about the release or a beta in the West? Currently, there is no information on whether and when the Digimon MMORPG will come to the West.

However, the game’s developer, Move Games, has already created and released the other MMORPGs Digimon Battle Online (2002) and Digimon Masters (2009) in our region. In addition, the beta in Korea was not region-locked, allowing players from outside to participate. Therefore, the chances for a Western release look good.

If you are currently looking for a new MMORPG, you’re in luck. Several new games and expansions are being released this year. We have summarized everything important here: 13 reasons why MMORPG fans can look forward to 2021.

CoD Cold War & Warzone: Secure your new free DLC for Season 4 with PS Plus

Maik Schneider Maik Schneider Reading time 3 minutes

Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops Cold War are giving PS Plus members a new Combat Pack to celebrate Season 4. In the free DLC, you will find some exclusive cosmetics that you can now claim as a PS Plus member.

What is this DLC? Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops Cold War have launched their fourth joint Season and brought a fresh wind to the game:

At least for PS Plus members, there is even more: the Combat Pack “Skyhook.” Through the mini-DLC, you can secure some special cosmetics centered around the Operator “Park.” We will show you how to get the pack and what’s inside.

The contents of the Season 4 Combat Pack

What’s included in the new Combat Pack for Season 4: You will receive a batch of cosmetic items with a thematic connection. It’s got a bit of everything – there’s just one item you will need to do without in the current combat pack:

  • Operator skin for Park
  • Blueprint for the Pellington sniper rifle
  • Blueprint for the sledgehammer
  • Weapon charm
  • Emblem
  • Calling card
  • 2x tokens for 60 minutes double XP
cod warzone cold war combat pack

Where can you use all this? Once you have redeemed the Combat Pack, you can use the items in CoD: Warzone and Cold War. However, to use the operator skin in Warzone, you need Cold War.

There’s even a trailer for the Combat Pack:

This is how you get the new Cold War Combat Pack

The requirements: First and foremost, you must be a PS Plus member. If you have a subscription, you can activate the pack at any time in your “PS Plus” section on the PlayStation.

Once you then start Warzone or Cold War, the items will be available to you. However, using the operator skin is a bit more complicated. The skin is part of an operator from Cold War, and you can only use it if you actually own Cold War. If you only play Warzone, then unfortunately you won’t be able to use the operator. The Park skin can also only be equipped on a PlayStation.

How to get the new Combat Pack: The Combat Pack is already active, and you can claim it at any time. You can find the link to the PS Store here:

The Combat Pack will be available for download throughout Season 4. However, you could miss the pack – once the new Combat Pack goes live in the next season, the old one will disappear.

Current news about Season 4:

What about other platforms? The Combat Pack is part of a collaboration between PlayStation and Call of Duty. Similar to the exclusive Zombie mode “Onslaught,” which will only be available on other platforms a year after the release of Cold War. If you don’t have a PS Plus subscription, you have no way to grab the mini-DLC.

WoW Patch 9.1 Download Now – Here’s How to Start the Preload

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

If you have done this, the download for the approximately 8 GB update should begin. By the way, if you have already played the current PTR, the download will be significantly smaller. In that case, the client simply retrieves the data from your PTR version.

More updates on World of Warcraft can be found here:

When will the patch be released officially? The release date for Patch 9.1 Chains of Domination is June 30, 2021, so the upcoming Wednesday. After maintenance in the early morning hours, the update will be automatically installed. Many of the new content will then be available. However, not all of it, as the raid “Sanctum of Domination” will open its doors only a week later.

Are you already looking forward to the new patch? Or is it coming “too fast” now, and would you rather finish something like the war spider first?

The first major content patch of WoW: Shadowlands is coming soon. We reveal how you can download most of the game data right now.

After long, far too long months of waiting, Patch 9.1 Chains of Domination for World of Warcraft is finally on the starting blocks. To avoid downloading endless updates on release day, you can already start with the preload. We will show you how it works.

What does the preload bring? With the preload, you can download the upcoming patch of World of Warcraft largely in advance. This reduces the amount of data you will still need to download on the actual patch day, allowing you to get gaming faster.

How does it work? For the preload to work in World of Warcraft, you need to activate it in the game settings beforehand. You do this via the Battle.net client. We will show you step by step where to enable the feature and what it does:

  • Start the Battle.net app
  • Click on the Battle.net icon at the top left and select “Settings”
  • Select the “Downloads” option in the side menu
  • Scroll down to “Game Updates” and check the option to “Always keep the latest updates for recently played games and download data for future updates”
WoW Preload Options
The option is easy to find.

Additionally, you can also uncheck “Pause updates when a game is launched”. In that case, a patch will also be downloaded while you are playing. However, this can negatively affect your latency.

If you have done this, the download for the approximately 8 GB update should begin. By the way, if you have already played the current PTR, the download will be significantly smaller. In that case, the client simply retrieves the data from your PTR version.

Aion: Classic servers of the MMORPG are launching in the West – Have a queue with over 30,000 players

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 2 minutes

The MMORPG Aion was originally released in 2009 and has changed significantly since then. The new servers aim to bring the game back to its roots and are so exciting at launch that huge queues are forming.

What’s going on? Today, on June 23, the Classic servers of Aion launched in America. However, anyone wanting to play on release day should be prepared for long queues.

The reddit user Hathaway_Noa shared a screenshot showing he is in position 12,456 in the login queue.

According to some users in the comments, the queue from the Siel server has already increased to over 30,000 players. The second server, Israphel, is completely full and the queue is considered “full”. Currently, it is not known how many players are queuing there.

No Pay-to-Progress Items and old memories attract players

What kind of servers are these? The Classic servers of Aion are supposed to be based on the gameplay content from the patch at launch. So you can look forward to the following content:

  • PvE content up to level 50
  • Rift and Fortress battles in PvP
  • 4 base classes, which will evolve into further specializations as you level up

Compared to 2009, there is, however, an adjusted client and some balance adjustments, including fewer experience points required to reach the max level.

While Aion Classic can be played for free without a subscription, there are significant restrictions that can only be lifted by a subscription.

What about European servers? Aion Classic is currently only available in America, but there is no region lock, so you can play there too. The current version of Aion in Europe is operated by Gameforge. We have not yet received a response from the publisher regarding whether Classic servers will come to us.

More about MMORPGs on MeinMMO:

Why is Aion Classic attracting so many people? One aspect often mentioned in connection with the Classic servers is the memories of the old times and the original feeling of the game. Some view the current version of Aion as “patched to death”.

You level up significantly faster than before, everything is somehow easier, and some old content has been removed from the game.

Moreover, many players criticize the current Aion for having strong pay-to-progress items, including:

  • XP boosters
  • Instance shortcuts
  • Boosters for more gold or loot
  • Equipment that can be directly sold in the shop

On the other hand, the shop of Aion Classic currently only offers cosmetic content and is also expected to refrain from boosters or pay-to-win in the future.

What do you think of Aion Classic? Will you take another look at the old MMORPG in its new guise?

If you want to try a completely new MMORPG, you will have a chance to do so in July. Then, Swords of Legends will be released. All information about it: The MMORPG Swords of Legends will be released in July: All about the release.

Leaks about FIFA 22 reveal new menus and disclose first details about the gameplay

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 2 minutes

This year, a new installment of the football simulation will be released with FIFA 22. However, many details have not been revealed yet. New leaks from June 23 show the new menus, reveal the download size of the beta, and provide some initial details about the gameplay.

What are these leaks? Many of the leaks come from Twitch streamer KingLangpard, who shares them on Twitter. The details about gameplay are particularly interesting:

  • There is supposed to be a new feature for player switching while defending. By pressing R3 on the controller, you can switch between the 3 closest players. The switch with R1 still works.
  • Calling in a second player in defense is said to have been slightly toned down. After 3-4 seconds, the pressing is said to stop.
  • Quickly switching sides and heading the ball is said to be very powerful, which could lead to a “new meta.”

In addition to this gameplay information, KingLangpard also shared an initial picture of the menu and information about Weekend League.

Where does this information come from? KingLangpard states that the information comes from the beta. However, this beta is currently not publicly accessible, and the statements cannot be verified.

The Twitter account PlayStation Game Size also shared the download size of the FIFA 22 beta today. It is supposed to be 39.067 GB (via Twitter). This also indicates that a hidden beta has started in the background.

Still, enjoy the information from KingLangpard with caution.

Leak about the Game Menu and Weekend League

What does the new menu look like? The picture from KingLangpard is the first one showing the menus of FIFA 22. It features the beta logo for FIFA 22 in the top left corner, as well as some placeholders.

https://twitter.com/KingLangpard/status/1407655763959504900?

What does KingLangpard say about the Weekend League? The information about Weekend League was already shared by the streamer at the end of April (via Twitter). It states that the qualification will be changed:

  • You must qualify every week
  • 5 matches will be played, of which you must win 3
  • You only have 3 attempts per week

More about FIFA on MeinMMO:

What is officially known about FIFA 22 so far? Very little. Classic modes like Ultimate Team or Career Mode will probably be included again. There are also rumors about an online career mode. Everything we know so far is summarized here: FIFA 22: Release, price, licenses – All previous information and assessments.

Really new information may only come out during EA Play Live. This will take place on July 22. The pre-show is scheduled to start at 7:00 PM our time, followed by the main show a bit later.

Our author Julian Schröder is responsible for FIFA on MeinMMO. He has already compiled a list of innovations that FIFA 22 desperately needs:
