Not only since Lady Dimitrescu from Resident Evil Village, there are women in video games who are really nasty and evil. We present to you 5 villains who show their dark side in the MMORPGs WoW, Guild Wars 2, Blade & Soul, and Final Fantasy XIV.
Darth Vader and the Emperor in Star Wars, Saruman and Sauron in The Lord of the Rings or Arthas in World of Warcraft as well as the Big Bad Wolf, who eats six of the seven little goats …
Villains in stories are often male – but not always.
Against the dark lords stand occasionally nasty women. Cersei in Game of Thrones, Annie Wilkes in Stephen King’s Misery, the witch from Hansel and Gretel, and of course the nearly 3-meter tall vampire lady Lady Dimitrescu from Resident Evil Village, after which the internet is currently going crazy.
Even before the release of Resident Evil 8, the nearly 2.90 m tall vampire woman transformed into an internet sensation since she played a crucial role in the demo. Fans requested, “Please step on me” – Capcom simulated in a YouTube video how it would affect the poor victims of the gigantic vampire if she really stepped on them. Spoiler alert: Not good.
No question, Lady Dimitrescu is an impressive opponent.
But what about online games? Even in MMORPGs, you will occasionally face female boss enemies. We would like to present a selection of the 5 worst villains in MMORPGs here.

Who is she? Sylvanas Windrunner was a ranger-general from Quel’Thalas in Warcraft 3, the homeland of the blood and high elves. She fought for her people in the war against the Horde and against the undead Scourge. However, she had no chance against the Lich King and his army. She fell in the battle for the powerful Sunwell.
Lich King Arthas brought her back as a banshee as punishment for her resistance. Willingless, she fought many battles for Arthas, but eventually managed to break free from his control. Over time, she became a significant threat to the Alliance and the Horde and still plays an important role in the story of WoW.
This is her role in WoW: As Banshee Queen, she leads the undead faction of the Forsaken. She repeatedly appears in the story as an antagonist, devising plans to annihilate Arthas and protect and advance her people, the undead.
What makes her so “badass”? Her tragic backstory and how her character evolves throughout the entire story of World of Warcraft resonates well with players. On one hand, she is a character you can empathize with, but on the other hand, she is also a nasty villain whose actions are cruel. What she does is understandable. She is not a soulless boss who simply appears to obliterate the heroes.
In Outriders there are numerous Legendaries to be found. We show you all 46 legendary weapons of the loot shooter with their mods and special properties in the overview.
Where can you farm legendary weapons? There are numerous sources in the game. With a lot of luck, you can obtain legendary items through item drops when your world tier is high enough. They can also be received as quest rewards and from certain bosses during the story.
The best methods on the way to the endgame are probably the Hunt, Wanted, and Historian quests, which reward you with a guaranteed Legendary at the end of their quest lines and can be repeated. However, these have a limited pool of items.
What makes legendary weapons so special? For one, each weapon has a unique design. The most important point is the rank 3 mods of each Legendary. Because they are powerful and bring special effects.
Through the crafting system, weapons can be disassembled and their mods unlocked for reuse. Therefore, not only the possession of such Legendaries is worthwhile, but disassembling them can also pay off.
Simply extract a mod that you can use elsewhere and create powerful combinations. We show you all 46 specimens that have been found so far, categorized in this overview.

All 46 legendary weapons with their modifications
Each weapon has its own rank 3 mod and three fixed attributes.
What categories are there? In Outriders, there are a total of 10 weapon classes:
The past week brought again many mixed news: from flamers and trolls, to the cancellation of the “Lord of the Rings” MMO, which many were looking forward to. Hear it now in our MeinMMO Podcast.
These are our topics: In this news show: Amazon cancels the announced “Lord of the Rings” MMO, supposedly due to a conflict with the giant Tencent. In contrast, New World brings back open-world PvP with a new update, but differently than before.
At Blizzard, another major developer has left, which has caused a big stir in the community. The company loses one of its last icons, Jeff Kaplan (Overwatch).
And online, trolling and insults are happening again. In Path of Exile, someone poses as a player with a disability and makes allegations against the developers. And in the LoL World Championship, one of the finalists turns out to be a hardcore flamer who wishes cancer upon others.
Here are all the topics of the new podcast episode at a glance:
In addition to the regular news presentation, we also give our own take in the podcast and view the circumstances from an expert perspective. Especially with Tencent, Leya and Schuhmann had a lot to say in this episode. And you can of course discuss with us in the comments and share your opinion on the topics.
In addition to the weekly recap, there are also occasional theme-specific podcasts that deal with larger events or games. For example, we talked extensively about crime in online games.

A new map came into play through a live event for Call of Duty: Warzone – Verdansk ’84. However, it’s not that new at all. There are many similarities with the “modern” version that was previously in the game, but also some changes. MeinMMO presents you with 10 important adjustments.
It took over a year, but finally Call of Duty: Warzone received a comprehensive overhaul of the main map “Verdansk”. Many locations now look different – some are hardly recognizable, while others remain almost the same.
To give you an idea of what to expect on the “new” map Verdansk ’84, we will show you 10 important changes.
Overview Map
The overview map directly shows the locations where the map has changed the most after the destruction of Verdansk. You can see the names of the new locations, but also some familiar places. Completely new are the locations:
Summit
Salt Mine
Array
Factory
Color Design and House Modifications
Although there are many buildings that you already know from the earlier version, they do look different. The colors have changed a lot, and overall the map is now somewhat more colorful. However, not excessively so. Some houses have also been slightly remodeled. On the Military Base, the houses are exactly where they used to be. But the houses themselves are a bit different.
Storage Town is a good example of the color adjustments. Before the update, the garages/storage buildings there were white and had only colored doors. Now all the buildings there are yellow. This trend continues throughout the map – there are new colors and differences to the previous version everywhere.
Lighting of Many Interiors
Another important point is adjustments inside buildings. The lighting conditions have changed within many houses – and it seems to be for the better.
Take the hospital, for example. In the old Verdansk, the hospital was very dark inside, and fights were often a struggle for visibility. Now the hospital is well-lit, allowing for fair fights. Dark skins still have advantages in some places.
This applies to several buildings. Overall, the initial impression is that interiors are now better lit.
Stadium is Significantly Smaller
The stadium was part of the first major change to the old Verdansk. The football temple was long inaccessible, and only with the start of Season 5 of Modern Warfare did the roof and doors of the arena open.
Now the stadium has dropped a few leagues. Nothing is left of the modern first league stadium. Instead, Verdansk now kicks in a charming, small stadium in the heart of the city.
Bunker Facilities
At least at release, the bunkers are initially unspectacular. For a long time, they were guarantees for strong loot in the old Verdansk, and a trip to the underground facilities was often a worthwhile trip.
The bunkers are still in the game, but they are closed. So far, there are also no reports of whether there are new key cards or if the bunkers will contain story secrets or Easter eggs again, like the nuclear bunker 11 before the update.
Signal Station Replaces WHP Camp
While the TV station is a flashback from the old map, quite some changes have taken place a few meters north. Where the WHP camp used to be, there now stands a huge, walkable signal station.
The metal monster looms unmistakably over the entire map and invites vertical fights. It will be exciting to see if the structure proves to be a popular drop spot or if it should already be scrapped.
Downtown
The downtown area of Verdansk strongly resembles the earlier version. The general layout and the buildings have changed little.
However, an important change could significantly alter the dynamics in Downtown – the adjustments to the glass skyscraper. The building now has several areas on the roof and no longer a single, solid roof. This creates more opportunities for snipers, and the building is likely to become even more dangerous for visitors to the downtown area.
Quarry Becomes Salt Mine with Forest
When approaching the new salt mine, one might think: “Oh, everything is as usual”. But upon a second glance, one notices that there is now much more forest.
A good part of “Quarry” is gone, and instead of a pit, there is now a large forest area. The salt mine offers a few familiar buildings, but the area in the north towards the edge of the map is now more for nature guys with a sniper rifle.
Environment Around the Superstore
The Superstore itself evokes familiar feelings. The roof is a bit different, the interior brighter, and also somewhat remodeled. However, the environment has changed significantly.
East of the store, you will now find the location “Factory”. The area now connects the airport area with the hangars to the area around the Superstore. In the factory, airplanes are built.
Airport is No Longer Destroyed
The airport is no longer a complete wreck. Instead of a destroyed entrance hall, you now find a completely intact airport.
This means that the airport is less visible from the outside and offers better cover and more security than before the update. However, the tower remains a feast for snipers.
The Dam Area is Completely Different
Some of the biggest changes have occurred in the area around the dam – as it is completely gone. Instead, there is now a bridge, and in the area of the reservoir, you will now find a signal station reminiscent of the classic “Black Ops” map “Summit”.
The station is connected to the rest of the map via a cable car.
The new map offers a ton of changes, and even places that remained the same are often hardly recognizable. Check out our map quiz of the old Verdansk if you want to reminisce a bit.
What is your first impression of Verdansk ’84? Do you think the changes are enough to keep it exciting for a long time? Or do you think the adjustments weren’t extensive enough and would have preferred a completely new map? Discuss with us – in the comments on MeinMMO.

In the League of Legends, there is a serious scandal: In China, games were manipulated to profit from betting on eSports. Riot Games temporarily or permanently bans 38 professional players, coaches, or managers. Among them is the excellent new jungler “Bo” from the 2019 LoL world champion FunPlus Phoenix. The 19-year-old had initiated the uncovering of the scandal.
Due to the Corona crisis, many regular sports events were canceled, leading to a rise in betting on the outcomes of LoL games in recent years. Betting sites now offer bets not only on games in the professional leagues but even on regular matches when a prominent player participates.
Apparently, some professionals in the Chinese leagues were lured by quick money. It was mainly about players from the youth league LDL – but some of the up-and-coming professionals had already made it to the top league LPL, which is now also facing the ban hammer.
These are the victims of the bans:
The jungler of FunPlus Phoenix, Zhou “Bo” Yang-Bo, had already earned several appearances in the LPL this season to represent the top jungler Tian. He receives a ban of 4 months.
In the mid-tier team in the LPL, “ThunderTalk Gaming,” two players are caught: the supporter Teeeen is banned for 4 months, and the jungler bless for 12 months.
In the youth league LDL, severe penalties are imposed: The entire team of “Sheng Jie Gaming” is disqualified. The top laner Spunk and 11 other coaches, players, or managers are banned for life.
During the bans, players are not allowed to participate in official LoL matches, nor are they allowed to stream LoL. They effectively have a work ban.
Jungler makes the breakthrough, then spills the beans
How did all this come out? The turning point was also the most prominent ban: The FunPlus Phoenix jungler “Bo”: At just 19, he had already made it into a top team in China. He moved up to FunPlus Phoenix because star jungler Tian, the MVP of Worlds 2019, was going through a form crisis and wanted to recover from psychological and physical issues.
Bo impressed in his appearances for FunPlus Phoenix and looked like a rising star.
The up-and-coming jungler had reported himself to the league in February 2021 and confessed that he was involved in match fixing. His self-report led to the investigations and the current bans.
More exciting articles about League of Legends on MeinMMO:
Bo says: He is very sorry. He has spent the last months suffering and regretting. He doesn’t even know how to look people in the face anymore. He should never have violated the rules under any circumstances. What is wrong is simply wrong (via twitter).
Because Bo had been cooperative during the investigations, 2 months of his 6-month sentence were waived: Nevertheless, he is now banned for a long time and will have to return without practice when allowed to play again. But many others may be hit even harder by the ban than he is.
FunPlus Phoenix is one of the most exciting and strongest LoL teams in the world. This year, they finished second in China behind RNG. Especially exciting at FunPlus Phoenix is Doinb. The creative and innovative midlaner has clear views on LoL:
In FIFA 21 a new round of the Weekend League has started today. And thanks to the TOTS event in Ultimate Team, it’s really worthwhile again.
The problem with the Weekend League was: Usually, the Weekend League rewards include various packs and coins that can be earned through victories. The more you win, the higher you rank and receive better rewards.
These rewards also include the red Player Picks, from which you usually get a selection of players from the current TOTW. However, the problem recently has been that the TOTW could barely keep up with the many special cards in FIFA 21. Therefore, the Weekend League rewards felt weaker than they should have at times.
Here are the new Weekend League rewards for Team of the Season
This is how TOTS changes the rewards: Instead of TOTW players, the upcoming Weekend League rewards on Thursday will feature the current Team of the Season cards. So, anyone who reaches a sufficiently high rank in the Weekend League can look forward to Player Picks, in which the cards will largely have very strong ratings.
Since the TOTS teams change weekly, there will also be different rewards each week. The distribution of Player Picks among the ranks is as follows:
From Silver 3 rank onwards, all TOTW items in Player Picks will be replaced by TOTS items.
For the Silver 2 and 3 ranks, there is a rating limit for the picks. They can have a maximum rating of 88. This restriction will be lifted from Silver 1 onwards.
From Gold 2 onwards, each player selection will contain at least one item from the “stronger” TOTS currently available in packs. At the start of the event, these are EFL TOTS and Community TOTS. In this case, it will be a guaranteed Community Pick.
From Elite 3 onwards, the premium TOTW packs will be replaced by a TOTS pack with 3 players from the stronger TOTS.
In the Top 100, the Ultimate TOTW pack will be replaced by a TOTS pack with 11 players from the stronger TOTS.
From now on, it makes sense to aim for high ranks in the Weekend League again and improve your team with the rewards. Those looking for reinforcements already should check the transfer market in FIFA 21 – it’s currently crashing.

The new season of Destiny 2 brings a long-awaited feature. However, players are not satisfied with the implementation. Overnight, they tear apart Transmog.
What players are waiting for: Destiny 2 finally gets a proper Transmog feature in Season 14. In just a few weeks, starting from May 11, 2021, Guardians will finally be able to look good while shooting aliens in the face.
This feature, known from many other MMOs and MMORPGs, has been desired by Destiny players since 2014. Bungie has now presented the feature, which will be one of the main attractions of the new season, in detail. But players immediately hate it. So they don’t hate the feature, but the implementation.
What is Transmog? Transmogrification (short: Transmog) refers to a system where armor and clothes are visually changed. Equipped items can take on the look of other earned items. Transmog is useful when the new armor is stronger or has a higher level, but is not visually appealing. This way, players can dress as they like without having to forfeit the power of new items.
New Info on Armor Synthesis in Destiny 2
In Season 14, Ada-1 returns to the Tower. The friendly Exo lady is your contact for “armor synthesis” – that’s what Transmog is called in Destiny 2. Only with such an armor synthesis can you give your items the look of clothes registered in the collection.
Here’s how to get armor syntheses:
Defeat enemies to earn Synthetic Threads.
Spend Synthetic Threads on Bounties to earn Synthetic Strands. The Bounties are available for Raids, PvP matches, Strikes, Gambit – actually something is available for every activity in Destiny 2.
Convert Synthetic Strands into Synthetic Fabric with the Weaver in the Tower.
Use Synthetic Fabric to transform an unlocked armor piece (Legendary or lower) from your collections into a universal armor ornament. Exotics can only change their appearance as before.
Here’s a preview of what the new customization menu looks like starting Season 14
Is there a limit? Yes. Note that you can only earn 10 units of Synthetic Fabric per season (about 3 months) per character. When the new feature is introduced in Season 14, you can earn 20 Synthetic Fabrics once per character.
That’s enough to convert four complete sets – meaning the helmet, gloves, chest piece, boots, and class item. Alternatively, that’s 20 individual armor pieces.
The Synthetic Fabric required for armor synthesis has to be earned first, and there is a cap, a limit on how much you can earn in a season.
Regardless of Transmog, you can still adorn and change all legendary armors with universal ornaments as usual. The existing system remains as it is, only expanded by armor synthesis.
Impatient Guardians can go faster
This is the role of the Eververse: Those who can’t find time to play or don’t want to grind can buy synthesis fabric templates directly from the Eververse. This is a token that can be used for the process of armor synthesis.
Bungie states, for comparison, that a set of universal ornaments (i.e., a complete event armor) costs 1,500 in the shop.
1,000 silver corresponds to about 10 € – depending on the bundle, it gets cheaper as you go up.
Whether the synthesis templates will also be available for Glimmer, the earned in-game currency, is currently unclear.
Players have been waiting 7 years for Transmog and tear it apart overnight
Fashion is the real endgame for many in Destiny 2. They want to look good when they head into battle. Some swear that they play better when their carefully chosen ensemble of armor, shaders, and ornaments has runway-worthy qualities.
However, there has been a massive wave of criticism from players after the recent announcements regarding Transmog.
The return of Ada-1 is not under a good star
Too complex: For many, it is incomprehensible why they have to earn 3 different resources to change the look of their armor, complete bounties, and then undergo a conversion with an NPC to finally change the appearance of an armor piece in their inventory (even listing everything in one sentence sounds overwhelming).
The US colleagues titled their article on Transmog “The armor Transmog system in Destiny 2 sounds much more complicated than it needs to be” (via GameRant.com).
Also on Reddit, there are numerous comments under the post regarding the Transmog info, such as: “I mean, when you all typed out those synthesis steps [in the blog post], didn’t you realize that this should be earned directly? All these interim currencies are ridiculous” (beekface via reddit).
Why is there a cap? The artificial limit of 20 Synthetic Fabrics per season and character – or later only 10 – really annoys the Guardians. Why are diligent players not allowed to earn as much Transmog as they want?
Famous streamers and content creators, like many of you, are looking forward to Transmog but criticize the established limit. Among them is Fallout Plays, who is regularly quoted in MeinMMO for weapon testing:

Transmog is said to be too expensive: The fact that players can easily bypass the two mentioned points with real money gives a very bitter aftertaste for Destiny players. The Eververse has a bad reputation in the community anyway. Now many are accusing Bungie of being greedy regarding Transmog.
Many do not find the monetization of the new feature too bad in itself. However, in combination with the restrictions per season and the high complexity, the costs seem too high.
The well-known Forbes author in the community, Paul Tassi, predicts that the Transmog system in this form will not work:

Did it turn out worse than expected? At MeinMMO, we reported on Transmog in early April and feared that two factors could ruin Transmog: It was about timegating and too high costs. So an artificial limit that stretches the time and the prominent role of the Eververse. Now it seems that, in addition to both concerns, the system is unnecessarily complicated.
Additionally, not all armor will be able to benefit from Transmog right away. Some ornaments from Year 1 of Destiny 2 will not be available at launch. For example, the “Trials of Osiris” or “Prestige Raid” ornaments.
Due to the criticism, the changes to shaders are also somewhat overlooked. From Season 14 onward, they will be universally available after being unlocked once. However, the price will also change.
Immediately after the information about Transmog became known, we also saw comments from you on MeinMMO:
Seasonal cap of the Transmog items, exclusion of ornaments, ornaments partially bound again to certain armor pieces, shader price increase from 40 to 300, and so on and so forth. Bungie just doesn’t learn and messes it up again.
What are your thoughts on the topic – has Bungie ruined Transmog even before the new season starts? Or do you think it’s not that bad since it’s all optional and purely cosmetic? Let us know your opinion in the comments.
The streamer Cameron Ferguson experienced the night of his life on Twitch. In fact, hardly anyone watches him when he plays his guitar for an hour, but one person who did watch was a cryptocurrency expert who blessed him with a windfall.
This is the streamer: The channel is called “Cameron_Ferguson_Music”: It is a man who plays electric guitar and talks a little with the few viewers he has. When he streams on Twitch, he practically does so in private:
On average, he has 2 viewers
His “peak”, when things go really well, is 4 viewers in his stream.
He has never had more than these 4 simultaneous viewers, but Ferguson only started streaming on Twitch at Christmas 2020.
He is one of many streamers on Twitch who stream more or less for themselves.
Crypto streamer discovers musician, triggers wave of donations
What was different about that night? The streamer CryptoCobain is significantly more successful on Twitch than the musician. He specializes in cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin. One evening, he was browsing Twitch and found Ferguson’s channel.
He then called on Twitter for his followers to “raid” this man: This is what it’s called when a larger channel directs all its viewers to a smaller channel. The crypto expert came up with the idea to gift the small streamer. The musician was to install the app “Blockfolio”, and Cobie wanted to send him $2,000.
Shortly thereafter, the musician stared incredulously at his phone as more and more donations came in. There were now over 500 people in his Twitch channel, and his account was overflowing: over $17,000 had already arrived. He had no idea what was going on.
The crypto streamer watched Ferguson’s reaction on his channel, was delighted, and laughed at how astonished the musician was as he looked at his phone and couldn’t comprehend what was happening to him:

This continued: This “raid” from the crypto community turned out to be a windfall for the musician. More and more donations flowed into his channel until the total amount reached $85,000 (€70,500).
Ferguson quickly called his wife over, who couldn’t believe what was happening, and she looked at the camera and said: “Why are people giving us so much money?”

This is how the streamer’s life has changed: In the days following the event, Cameron Ferguson seems to want to treat himself.
He shows pictures of his wife on the beach because they finally managed to have the “beach date” they had been waiting for. His wife is sitting with a bottle of cheap prosecco at a picnic. One person commented on Twitter: “Respect that you are keeping your money together despite the windfall.”
The musician himself says: He was shopping in a guitar store, and somehow it feels different now – of course, he has pockets full of money.
This is what’s behind it: This is probably the dream of many small Twitch streamers, that something extraordinary happens and they get discovered and someone recognizes that what they are doing alone on Twitch is pretty cool.
It feels like a fairy who floats in, discovers something good and fulfills wishes. Only in the case of Ferguson, it was the crypto fairy with a community of people who apparently don’t mind shelling out a few hundred US dollars for a kind of donation event.
It happens frequently that “big streamers” gift the small ones on Twitch. This is also part of the appeal of the platform for many. Normally, it’s about viewers, not immediately about tens of thousands of euros:
Genre: Tactical Shooter | Developer: Ubisoft | Platform: PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S | Release: 12.01.2015
Getting into a tactical shooter can be a significant challenge. Rainbow Six Siege is no exception. MeinMMO explains why getting started is still worthwhile in 2021, six years after release.
Rainbow Six Siege was released in 2015, making it six years old now. In this time, there have been many changes, and millions of players regularly play the tactical shooter.
As a result, there are many veterans among the players. Additionally, Rainbow Six is considered a demanding shooter that requires a lot of practice – all reasons that can deter newcomers.
Nevertheless, don’t let that discourage you from giving Rainbow Six Siege a chance. Right now, conditions are even favorable for entering the shooter for the first time.
What is Rainbow Six Siege anyway? In Ubisoft’s tactical shooter for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S, you compete in teams of five players to fulfill specific objectives. This usually means protecting or defusing a bomb, but hostage rescues and area captures can also be played.
You play rounds against each other and must earn points to secure victory. Various characters, known as operators, are at your disposal, each fulfilling a role and bringing unique skills to the table.
Rainbow Six Siege has fans in both casual and competitive spheres and is one of the largest and most well-known eSports titles. Famous teams like G2 Esports maintain professionals who secure victories and notoriety for them.
Now is a good time to start
This is how Rainbow Six makes it easier for you to start: The game features various aspects that slowly introduce you to the mechanics. You can determine how intensely you want to prepare or how quickly you want to jump into the “real battle.”
You have various playlists available:
Situations: Solo missions that introduce and allow you to practice individual gameplay content.
Hostage Hunt: PvE content for solo or co-op to practice maps and learn mechanics.

The TOTS in FIFA 21 starts today, on April 23, 2021. Here you will find everything about the release of the “Team of the Season” event in Ultimate Team.
When does the TOTS start in FIFA 21? The release date of the Team of the Season event in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team is April 23, 2021 at 7:00 PM. The event was announced through several loading screens – the current one looks like this:
The timer ends on Friday evening, April 23
At this point, the first of several Teams of the Season is likely to be released.
These teams are coming today for the TOTS start
Which teams are involved today? At the event start, not all Teams of the Season will be available at once, instead, the TOTS promo will span several weeks. An earlier loading screen confirmed that the following teams will kick off:
The EFL Championship TOTS
The Community TOTS
So the first team consists of the best players from the second English league, and the second one consists of a community vote.
So these are not the teams from the top leagues, but you don’t need to worry about the stats. Even in the last years, cards from the “smaller” leagues received extremely good updates. Both teams will come with 15 cards each in the packs – that’s a bit less than in previous years.
This is how the Community TOTS voting works: For the Community TOTS, players who have received at most one special card in FIFA 21 are eligible. Who ends up in the TOTS is decided by the FIFA community. You can find everything about the TOTS Community Voting in FIFA 21 here.
Team of the Season – One of the most important events in FIFA 21
What is the TOTS actually? The “Team of the Season” is an event that traditionally spans several weeks. Every week, one or more “Teams of the Season” are released, whose special cards are then available in packs.
These cards are among the best in the game and have stats that usually far exceed their standard cards. Logically, they are special cards for the players who achieved the best performances over the past season.
The first loading screen for TOTS hinted at several leagues
These Teams of the Season will then be released successively by leagues. For example, there will be a Bundesliga TOTS, a Premier League TOTS, and so on. The current loading screen already contains hints of:
Premier League TOTS
Liga NOS TOTS
CSL TOTS
La Liga TOTS
MLS TOTS
Rest of the World TOTS
Ultimate TOTS
It is to be expected that this list will expand with upcoming loading screens. After all, leagues like Serie A, Bundesliga, and more are still missing here. We will keep you updated on this.
Why is the event so exciting? The TOTS event had a special feature in previous editions compared to other events. The cards from the respective week replaced the TOTW cards in Player Picks. Thus, you can usually obtain one or the other card directly through the Weekend League rewards and thus have the chance to secure some of the best cards in the game for your Ultimate Team. This year, too, the TOTS cards will replace the TOTW cards again in packs and will also be available as Player Picks.
In Fortnite, players can purchase a new skin made from old map elements. The “Eco” outfit clearly shows how much the game has changed over the years.
This is what the skin looks like: The new Eco skin landed in Fortnite on April 22nd, catching attention with its unusual design. The character basically looks like a walking map: There are visible rivers, a sort of lava arm, a few little trees growing from the character’s elbow, and his right leg is frozen.
On his back, he carries a globe featuring an active volcano that puffs little clouds of ash into the air. It is said to erupt when opponents are eliminated. Fans of miniatures should delight in this skin. Additionally, a harvesting tool has also appeared in the shop: A well-known sword embedded in the skull of a nasty monster. The skin costs 1,500 V-Bucks in the store (approximately between €12-15).
All of this does not come without reason. Those who take a closer look at the colorful figure will recognize plenty of things – at least if they’ve been around for a few years.
A Skin for Fortnite Nostalgia Fans
The skin has a lot of references: The walking map Eco clearly shows how much the map has changed since its release in 2017. On Eco’s armor, you can see various locations from older versions of the Fortnite map, showcasing how the game looked before the locations of today’s prehistoric season variant.
The belt buckle features the tomato face of Tomato Town and Temple.
The Durrr Burger is stuck on the right arm.
It is a colorful mix of various seasons, all coming together in a single skin. Many of the locations on the skin have been replaced today – there is no longer a volcano, nor any ice landscape. Currently, there are The Spire, a walled jungle, or prehistoric villages in the center of the map in the game.
This is happening in Warzone: After the event “The Destruction of Verdansk – Part 1” started yesterday on April 21, and the map was destroyed in a nuclear explosion, players are waiting for the new map for the Battle Royale. Currently, you can only play on Rebirth Island before the final phase of the event starts today at 21:00. You can find all the info here in the MeinMMO live ticker for the Season 3 event in CoD Warzone.
However, a new trailer has already gone online that aims to hype the new season with loud rock music, many guest appearances, and plenty of explosions. An unfinished version of it was leaked some time ago. You can see the new version here:

New trailer shows small map snippets
This is shown in the trailer: The trailer is themed “Squad up the World” and announces that you should dive into “Verdansk 84” today. In the trailer, the guest appearances are clearly in the foreground, but you can also spot locations that are likely to find a place on the new map between the battles.
The following locations are visible:
A large signal station is visible in the trailer. It reminds of a location from one of the possible final missions from the Cold War campaign.
The stadium is shown in the trailer, but looks significantly smaller at first glance. Additionally, a huge crane looms over the stadium roof, where battles are also fought in the trailer.
The stadium is under construction
Opposite a signal station, a large bridge is visible. Behind it, a landscape reminiscent of the classic Black Ops map “Summit” can be seen.
Quarry in the north appears unchanged.
The Gulag in the south is still visible and looks as usual from the outside.
Downtown looks comparatively unchanged. There are no huge skyscrapers visible anymore, but there are still taller buildings in the trailer.
From the crane, you have a good view
Leakers show first snippets: Some players were able to venture onto a part of the new map with the help of private matches. Some snippets of the map have already been shared on YouTube, as seen here in the video by “Mayzomatic”:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iow4myqf3pc
In the gameplay video, the YouTuber was already able to move towards the stadium. In Downtown, buildings can be seen that are currently being rebuilt. How the complete map looks will likely be revealed soon – after all, the season event continues this evening.
In Pokémon GO nothing has been seen from Team GO Rocket for a few days. A solution to the problem has now been found and the pesky Grunts and Bosses are back.
What is going on with Team Rocket? On April 10, the developers of Pokémon GO announced that they had to temporarily disable the members of Team GO Rocket in the game. This was due to issues related to encounters with the Grunts and Bosses. Since then, there has been virtually no news on the topic. However, it is now clear: The developers have found a solution to the problem and Team Rocket will soon be back in the game.
Update from April 23: Since April 23, 2021, Team Rocket is back in the game. You can meet Grunts, Bosses, and Giovanni again at Stops and in Balloons. Continuing with the original article.
Team Rocket is coming back soon – Status as of April 22
What’s new? The developers of Pokémon GO have a website where they describe the status of current issues and bugs. A list of known errors. On April 22, you can find the entry: “Encounters with Team GO Rocket Grunts sometimes cause the game to freeze.”
The more detailed error description states that the game freezes and then becomes unresponsive. They circumvented the issue by removing Team GO Rocket from the game.
For unresolved issues, it is stated on the page that they are still investigating. The status of the Rocket issue is: “Will be fixed in an upcoming update.”
When are they coming back? No exact date has been set. Furthermore, Niantic does not clarify whether the upcoming update is the “next” one. However, what is clear is that the developers have already found the solution. It just needs to be processed in an update. The re-release of Team Rocket in Pokémon GO shouldn’t be far off.
What does Team Rocket do in Pokémon GO? Anyone who has watched the Pokémon anime series knows about Team Rocket, especially Jessie, James, and Meowth. In Pokémon GO, many other members have exciting roles. Sometimes they appear as nameless Grunts lurking at PokéStops or visiting players with Balloons. They reward you after defeating them with strong Shadow Pokémon. If you defeat enough of them, you will face the Rocket Bosses Arlo, Sierra, or Cliff. They reward players again with Shadow Pokémon. If you battle the Boss Giovanni, you may even receive a legendary Shadow Pokémon.
Why is this so important?
This is the problem: For some players, it may not matter that they cannot battle the members of Team GO Rocket for a few days. But as soon as the requirements for Level 45 come into play, problems arise. You are required to defeat 100 Rocket Grunts, catch 100 Shadow Pokémon, and defeat 50 Team GO Rocket Bosses.
Those who have already gathered the required XP and completed all other tasks are now just waiting for the reactivation of Team GO Rocket. Trainers have already complained that they cannot level up in Pokémon GO right now.
What do you think about the current situation in Pokémon GO? Do you miss Team Rocket in Pokémon GO or do you not care that the Grunts and Bosses are currently absent? Let us know your opinion here on MeinMMO in the comments and talk to other trainers about it.
Sega, the company behind the new MMORPG Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis, announced a release window for the upcoming game during a livestream. PSO2: New Genesis will be globally released in June.
The predecessor PSO 2 is already quite popular and runs even on low-end PCs – and completely free of charge. The successor New Genesis will be released for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
PSO 2: New Genesis offers a large Open World compared to its predecessor, where you can meet your fellow players, as well as revamped classes with new abilities. There will also be world events where you must collaborate with other players, tons of quests, and a large social hub.
When can I play PSO 2: New Genesis? According to Sega, the release window for the new MMORPG is in June 2021, but no specific date has been announced yet. However, there will be a closed beta beforehand, which you can sign up for.
The beta will run from May 14 to May 16, and you can register now through the ‘Xbox Insider Hub’ app (via Xbox.com).

PSO: New Genesis – The first major MMORPG of 2021
At the moment, 2021 looks quite sparse in terms of MMORPGs. Although a new Asian MMORPG Swords of Legends Online has been announced, it will not be released until summer, thus after PSO 2: New Genesis.
Until the release of Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis, MMORPG fans will have to be patient and make do with the games already on the market. However, there will be more options once everything arrives as promised. From June, the MMORPG year will finally pick up speed:
Opening vaults is a challenge in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 6. This challenge is for the missions of Week 6 and grants XP for your Battle Pass.
What kind of task is this? This challenge is one of the Week 6 missions in Fortnite Season 6. The name of the challenge may be confusing for those who are familiar with the armored vaults from the start of Chapter 2, but it refers to the small metal vaults full of gold bars that can be found in various locations on the island.
Things to keep in mind: Vaults are items that have only a 50 percent spawn rate. In other words, the locations mentioned above, on the Season 6 map, will not always showcase a vault. With a bit of luck, you can quickly find three vaults to open, but it may require several attempts!
Make sure to open the vault and not break it to retrieve the bars. While the vault opening animation is indeed very long and most players prefer to destroy it to gather materials, breaking the vault does not count towards the challenge!
This is undoubtedly one of the most grueling challenges on this week’s list, as the limited number of vaults combined with the fact that they are tricky to open will bring dozens of opposing players to the locations.
Opening a vault is so slow that it’s often best to grab a weapon first, secure the area, and finally open the container without the risk of being interrupted. Also, be careful that the floor supporting the vault doesn’t break!

PvP plays an important role in the mobile game Diablo Immortal as it is part of the endgame and gives you access to a major raid. The developers have now presented this aspect of the game in more detail.
What is the focus in PvP? In the endgame of Diablo Immortal, it’s about earning the Crown of Eternity in the cycle of conflict. This offers you some benefits, such as participating in raids and accessing the Chamber of the Immortals. However, the road to this goal in PvP is long.
Diablo Immortal’s Lead Game Designer Wyatt Cheng introduces you to the PvP of the hack and slash in the video:

PvP and endgame go hand in hand in Diablo Immortal
Here’s how to qualify for the endgame: To participate in the cycle of conflict, you first need to qualify. This happens through battlefields. In these battlefields, you fight in 8 versus 8 skirmishes. You register with the captain of the battlefield in Westmark, whom you can find at the lookout of the Immortals.
Now you must decide whether to be an attacker or defender or if you want the game to randomly assign you to a team. This will earn you more valuable rewards. As an attacker, you must escort Passionate Idols to destroy the Ancient Heart. The defenders must prevent this and eliminate both the Idols and the attackers.
Here’s how to fight for the Crown of Eternity: If you have fought your way to a place in the cycle of conflict through the battlefields, you will first join the adventurer faction. Now daily quests await you that you must complete. Once you have mastered enough of these tasks, you may switch to the Shadow faction and then participate in the fight for the crown.
As Shadows, you must initiate the Ritual of Banishment. However, who gets to do this will be decided among the Shadows. You gather in groups to form a so-called Dark House. Now it’s time to fulfill contracts that raise your standing and rank:
Plunder the Chamber – You must try to break into the Chamber of the Immortals and steal something
Path of Blood – You prove your worth in solo fights against particularly nasty demons
The PvP battles in Diablo Immortal are connected to the endgame.
Once you have proven yourself, you will participate in an assembly. These assemblies take place every Wednesday and Saturday from 2:00 PM to 10:00 PM. Here, based on Akeba’s challenge, it will be decided which Dark House can participate in the fight for the Crown of Eternity. The goal is to defeat three powerful, ancient warriors.
Now the Ritual of Banishment takes place. Here you fight in PvP against the faction of the Immortals. If the Shadows are victorious, they take the place of the Immortals, and the leader sits on the throne and receives the Crown of Eternity.
How exactly this PvP fight plays out, the developers of Diablo Immortal will reveal at a later time.
What happens after the fight? The new Immortals can now complete special tasks to obtain the resource Essentia. With this, they “purchase” access to Kion’s Trial, a raid for 48 players that promises particularly valuable rewards and an important buff. Additionally, the Chamber of the Immortals must be protected from raids.
The cycle of conflict then starts over again when a Dark House of the Shadows can initiate a new Ritual of Banishment.
How does this affect the ongoing gameplay? As the leader of the Immortals, you receive Daedess’s blessing through the raid Kion’s Trial, along with loot. This is a strengthening effect for the Elder Rifts. Additionally, your Chamber of the Immortals will be filled.
This strengthening effect for the Elder Rifts is important for the ongoing gameplay. The portals, known in English as “Elder Rifts”, are repeatable, randomly generated instances. In these, you must kill enemies similar to the Nephalem Rifts from Diablo 3 to summon a boss.
During the runs through the Elder Rifts, you will find emblems. You use these to make the rifts harder. This way, you then receive runes. These runes, in turn, are necessary for crafting legendary gems. The gems provide you with important bonuses that enhance your character.
It is therefore essential to run through the Elder Rifts. With the strengthening effect that you receive as the leader of the Immortals, it becomes easier for you to obtain the runes and thus the important legendary gems. This means, if you want to level up quickly and become powerful, you essentially cannot avoid obtaining the strengthening effect in the PvP of Diablo Immortal.
What do you think about the PvP in Diablo Immortal? Do you like it or would you have wished for something different?
Call of Duty: Warzone will receive a map update for the large map Verdansk at the start of Season 3 with a live event. MeinMMO shows you what happens next and what has already happened. As soon as the last phase of the event starts, you will also find a live ticker here.
The new Season 3 brings a map update for Verdansk, which changes the map in several places and aims to provide a fresh experience in Call of Duty: Warzone. Currently, an event is running in the transition to the new map, and Warzone is in a state of emergency. Tonight, “The Destruction of Verdansk – Part 2” starts, and here you will find all the important info about it:
Previous course in brief: On April 21 at 9 PM, the event mode “The Destruction of Verdansk – Part 1” went online. Dead players turned into zombies, and after about 10 minutes, the match ended. After that, a cutscene showed how Verdansk is hit by a nuclear bomb.
Since the end of the first phase, only modes on Rebirth Island are online, and players discovered puzzles and changes on the small Warzone map. A countdown is currently running down in the game that expires at 9 PM.

CoD Warzone: Live Event – Time, Countdown, and Information
The 4th and final phase starts at 9 PM tonight (April 22) and runs until approximately 10 PM. A countdown in the game runs exactly at 9 PM.
Due to server issues, the first event mode “The Destruction of Verdansk – Part 1” was online for nearly an hour longer. If there are problems today again, an extension is possible.
The event runs for a total of 25 hours, and Warzone has no classic Battle Royale available during this time. You can only play on Rebirth Island at the moment:
Current playlist
Rebirth Resurgence 4-man at night
Rebirth Mini Royale 2-man at night
Rebirth King Slayer at night
However, there is something new to discover on the island. Some locations have been changed, and a large Easter egg shows first images of the new map. More about the Easter egg can be found with the English-speaking YouTuber “Geeky Pastimes,” who solved the complicated puzzle together with other players (via YouTube).
Info about the new map
Meanwhile, the picture of the new map is becoming clearer. It has been revealed that selected content creators were able to take a look at the map, and the new Easter egg on Rebirth Island also shows images of the new Verdansk. Due to a glitch, players managed to sneak onto the new map through private matches:
Summary of the event info about the new map (in English)
The changes to the map are quite extensive. However, there are also some areas that have hardly changed.
Expired: Ticker from the start of the event to the third event phase
Update April 22: We are now in the third event phase, which runs until 9 PM tonight. The third phase, however, brought no new modes – only a countdown that counts down the time until 9 PM and a new lobby screen. In addition, players found some puzzles on Rebirth Island.
Open the spoiler box if you want to know what happened in the event mode “The Destruction of Verdansk – Part 1”:
Course of events: The Destruction of Verdansk – Part 1
The mode starts like a normal Battle Royale, but when you go completely down, you turn into a zombie. More and more players become zombies, the circle closes, and the survivors must try to escape by helicopter at the end. However, there is no way out, and even players who reach the evacuation point cannot escape.
There are always warnings in between, and the zombie threat increases. At the very end, a cutscene shows how the lost Verdansk is destroyed by a nuke. As a conclusion to the event mode, you receive a calling card.

Update – 11:05 PM: The first period of the event has expired, but the event mode “The Destruction of Verdansk – Part 1” is still online. If you haven’t been able to get into the game due to server issues, you can still play the mode.
However, more modes are now available again – all three on Rebirth Island. The next stage of the event kicks off tomorrow morning at 6 AM with the season start.
Update – 9:05 PM: The event mode is live. You can now play “The Destruction of Verdansk – Part 1”. All other modes are disabled.
Original announcement before the event
What is currently known? Through the first roadmap of Season 3, it is now clear that Call of Duty: Warzone will receive a map update for Verdansk with the new season, and the city is apparently set back to the 1980s. The first image of the new map was even seen ingame. However, details are difficult to discern:
This is how the map looks ingame.
Everything also indicates that the transition from the old to the new map is connected with a live event. Currently, the zombie story in Verdansk is at its peak and the battle against the undead plague has been hinted at for months with a nuclear device. Currently, large cruise missiles are even flying over the city, and a warning is asking players in every match to seek shelter from a potential attack.
Warzone also showed a doomsday date with the words “the end is near”. The date is today, April 21 at 9 PM. However, there are now even four dates that probably relate to the destruction of Verdansk:
The time information in the CoD tweet in German time:
First date
April 21 from 9:00 PM to 11:00 PM
Lasts 2 hours
Second date
April 21 – 22 from 11:00 PM to 6:00 AM
Lasts 7 hours
Third date
April 22 from 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM
Lasts 15 hours
Fourth date
April 22 from 9:00 PM to 10:00 PM
Lasts 1 hour
Total duration: 25 hours
If you want to be part of it, then log into Warzone tonight at 9 PM. But don’t start a game directly. If it goes like it did during the reveal of Cold War in Warzone, there will be a “list update” at 9 PM, and then the event mode will be available.
What is currently unknown? It is still unknown how it will proceed specifically. The fact that the dates run consecutively without a break suggests a multi-stage event. There have also been leaks from data miners pointing in that direction (via Twitter). It is said in the data: “Congratulations on completing ‘The Destruction of Verdansk Part 1!'”. There will likely be a cosmetic reward for participating.
The Warzone entries on the Season 3 roadmap.
Not only the course is still unclear, but also the content of the event. During the reveal of Cold War, a special game mode was run that sent you through a scripted adventure. There were short video inserts during the match, many in-game displays were obscured by a bar like in secret recordings, and at the end, players went towards the stadium. After completing the tasks, the match ended, and all participants saw the first trailer of Black Ops Cold War.
However, this scripted game mode was only online for a maximum of 2 hours at a time and also replaced the normal Battle Royale during this time. This time, the specified times are significantly longer, and the third date is even set for 15 hours. It is also possible that it is a mix of special game modes and scripted events:
First date: Event with script
Second date: Special game mode
Third date: Special game mode
Fourth date: Event with script
It is still unknown how much the map actually changes. For a long time, players and leakers assumed that there would be a completely new map at the season start. However, since only a “map update” is mentioned, fewer and fewer people believe in a complete overhaul. A leaked commercial and initial data findings suggest significant changes to the locations:
Stadium
Damn
Harbour
Superstore
However, it cannot be stated with certainty whether there will be more changes or if the map adjustments will be resolved in another way.
What about the “Hunt for Adler” event? According to the blog entry about Season 3 (via callofduty.com), it is a joint event for Warzone and Cold War, similar to the Outbreak event at the start of Season 2. In the story of Call of Duty, Adler was captured by the evil operator Stitch and taken to Verdansk in the “Cold War” era and held captive in the Gulag.
You can complete gameplay challenges in Warzone and Cold War during the event to earn special cosmetics. If you complete all tasks, you will receive an exclusive Adler skin. Data miners also believe they already know which skin that is:
Since the event is hosted together with Cold War and will probably run for over 2 weeks, it likely doesn’t directly relate to the destruction of Verdansk. It is more like the continuation of the story after the transition from the modern Verdansk to the new version of the Cold War.
Warzone is finally back in action and offers its players a new experience. Many Warzone players found Season 2 boring, as there were hardly any innovations in gameplay, and even the weapon meta remained stubbornly monotonous throughout the period.
Are you stopping by the event today? What are your expectations for a new map? Let us know in the comments on MeinMMO.

Electronic Arts has announced a new Battlefield. This is a mobile game that aims to provide the complete Battlefield experience on the go.
What kind of game is it? The mobile game in the Battlefield series currently does not have an official name. It is a standalone project that will be released alongside the Battlefield that DICE is currently developing for PC and console. “Battlefield Mobile” is developed by the studio iToys, which created the mobile shooter Midnight Star.
According to Electronic Arts, with “Battlefield Mobile” you can expect a gaming experience that is referred to as “Battlefield-on-the-go”. This means that you essentially receive a full-fledged Battlefield experience that you can enjoy on your Android or iOS smartphone.
The logo for “Battlefield Mobile” doesn’t reveal much about the game.
Battlefield Mobile: Content, Release, Status
What exactly does the game have to offer? Much has not yet been revealed; the major reveal is still planned for an unspecified date. However, there are a few initial details:
It is a skill-based game, so you will need to learn and train to achieve victories
It is expected to provide a complete Battlefield experience
You can expect a huge war scenario
The game is being specifically developed for mobile devices
Furthermore, it is said that this mobile game has nothing to do with Battlefield 6 or whatever the new shooter will be officially named. DICE is still working on the next installment in the series, which is expected to be released by the end of 2021.
What is the status of the game? According to EA, a testing phase will start after the title has been in prototype status for several years. Whether it will be an internal test or you will be able to participate is still unknown.
When will there be more information? There are still no details about when EA will reveal more about this “Battlefield Mobile”. However, there will definitely be more information before the release.
Additionally, nothing from the game has been shown yet. We have no idea what it looks like. This will certainly change in the coming months.
When is the release? “Battlefield Mobile” is expected to be released sometime in 2022 for Android and iOS smartphones and tablets. A specific date has not yet been mentioned.
Who is the game aimed at? With the new mobile shooter, Electronic Arts wants to target players who have already enjoyed the successful Call of Duty: Mobile and PUBG Mobile. Such games significantly contribute to a company’s financial success.
The TiMi Studios, developers of CoD Mobile, generated a revenue of 10 billion USD in 2020 with the shooter (via ScreenRant).
Therefore, it is only logical that Electronic Arts is now releasing a mobile shooter. The very well-known and successful brand Battlefield is indeed a good fit for this.
What do you think of a “Battlefield Mobile”? Would it be a game you would like to play on your smartphone on the go? Let us know in the comments.
In Fortnite: Battle Royale you should visit Fancy View, Rainbow Rentals, and Lockie’s Lighthouse. This is part of the challenges for week 6 of Season 6 – Chapter 2. MeinMMO shows you all the locations so you can complete the task quickly.
What is this task? In the 6th week of Season 6, you should visit various locations on the Season 6 map. However, since these are unnamed locations, they are not easy to find. Therefore, we show you the exact locations so you can collect the XP reward.
Locations on the Fortnite map:
You should visit these marked locations for the challenge
To ensure that you find the sought-after locations, we will introduce them to you in more detail here.
Visit Fancy View – Location
Where do you need to go? The location “Fancy View” is situated in the western part of the map. It is a house located on the edge of the map on a cliff.
As a reference, you can find the named location Sweaty Sands nearby. To visit the house “Fancy View”, it’s best to land at grid field A4.
At Fancy View you have a nice view of the ocean
Visit Rainbow Rentals – Location
Where do you need to go? You can find this location in the southwestern part, at the edge of the map. It is located southwest of Holly Hedges.
Land in grid field B6 and look for the colorful rainbow houses lined up together.
At Rainbow Rentals you will find the rainbow houses
Visit Lockie’s Lighthouse – Location
Where do you need to go? Lockie’s Lighthouse is located northwest of Stealthy Stronghold on a small island. The location is quite far on the edge of the map – you should not stay there too long as the storm moves in faster here.
To visit Lockie’s Lighthouse quickly, it’s best to land directly on the tower itself. The location is in grid field C1. If you still have time afterwards, you can stop by Stealthy Stronghold, as there is the new exotic grappler bow.
Here you see the lighthouse you should visit
The locations are not exactly close to each other. So it might be that you need to complete the task in different matches if you don’t find a car to drive around the map.
However, once you have visited all 3 locations, the task counts as completed and you will receive experience points with which you can upgrade your Season 6 battle pass.
