The beta of Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is just around the corner and, as always, shooter fans want to jump in as soon as the test starts. We show you a method to get started 2 days earlier without pre-ordering the game.
When does the beta start? The beta of Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 has two dates: First, pre-order customers can start on October 2, 2025, at 7:00 PM. Three days later, on October 5, 2025, at 7:00 PM, the open beta will commence, allowing every interested shooter fan to test Black Ops 7. The beta ends on October 8, 2025, at 7:00 PM German time.
However, not everyone wants to pre-order the game or wait until the beta of Black Ops 7 is available for everyone to play. Therefore, there is a way for you to start with the pre-order customers – completely for free.

Free beta keys: Here’s how to get them for Black Ops 7
How do I get free keys? At CoD Next, you have the chance to gain free access to the beta of Black Ops 7. CoD: Next is a live show that takes place annually for the new Call of Duty. There, gameplay is shown, and the studio takes the time to demonstrate the new features of the upcoming shooter. You can follow the event in a stream on Twitch.
This year, CoD: Next will also take place on Twitch, and through Twitch Drops, you have the chance to secure a beta code for the pre-order beta. You need to watch the stream actively for 1 hour to receive a free key for early access.
When is CoD Next? The event starts at 6:00 PM German time on the official Twitch channel of Call of Duty. Make sure you have a Twitch account linked to your CoD account, or else the watched time will not be counted.
You can also run the stream in the background on your PC or mobile device. In the meantime, you can do homework, do laundry, or play games.
For which platforms are the beta keys? This is not officially known yet, but we are orienting ourselves on previous CoD releases, which also had such keys as drops. The code you receive on Twitch will likely be redeemable on the official Call of Duty website. From there, you should be able to decide for which platform your beta key will be generated.
What other rewards are there? In addition to early access to the beta, you can receive the following rewards through Twitch Drop:
A calling card
An emblem
A weapon charm
A beta code
Those were all the important info on how you can get a pre-order beta key before the beta starts and completely free. Are you excited about the beta or even CoD: Next? You can find out more about Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 here: CoD Black Ops 7: All info about the release, beta, and the price

EA has confirmed the rumors: The company will be sold to a group of investors for 55 billion USD. You can find out more directly with us on MeinMMO.
Update from September 29, 2025 at 5:45 PM: In a press release, EA officially announces the sale. It mentions a full (100%) acquisition of the company by PIF, Silver Lake, and Affinity Partners. Anyone holding EA shares outside of the three buyers will be paid $210 per share.
What is it about? For several days now, there have been rumors that Electronic Arts (EA) is on the verge of being privatized through a deal worth around 50 billion USD. However, little has been known about it so far.
It is exactly this acquisition that Electronic Arts has now confirmed: Geoff Keighley, a well-known journalist, posted on X.com that EA has confirmed that a group of investors and the Public Investment Fund (PIF) from Saudi Arabia want to pay 55 billion USD for the company behind Battlefield, EA FC, and Dragon Age.
Geoff Keighley’s post on X.com about EA’s planned acquisition.
Who are the buyers? The exact identities of the investors are not yet known. According to various sources (such as Reuters.com and WSJ.com), the investors reportedly include the private equity firm Silver Lake, the Saudi sovereign fund Public Investment Fund, and Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners. The Saudi fund PIF is now considered secure thanks to Keighley’s new post.
The rumors at the time caused shares to rise by 15% on Friday, September 26, 2025.
There have been rumors about the takeover of Electronic Arts for a while
There has been ongoing discussion about whether and to whom Electronic Arts could be sold. The rumors, that Amazon might possibly buy EA, turned out to be false at the time. However, the topic has remained persistent.
The purchase is also seen by some experts as a possible lifeline in the currently difficult situation. Experts also suspect that this buyout could have far-reaching consequences for the gaming market.
Competition in the gaming sector is considered tough and intense, and job fluctuations vary greatly: In the past, many individuals in the gaming sector have been laid off, recently Microsoft/Xbox was affected by many layoffs.
So far, the only acquisition of a similar size in the gaming sector has been Microsoft’s purchase of Activision Blizzard. In a statement, Microsoft announced that they want to buy the publisher Activision Blizzard. It was intended to ensure the company’s growth on PC, consoles, and mobile in the gaming sector: Microsoft announces: They want to buy Activision Blizzard

The developers of Elder Scrolls Online want to work on the classes 11 years after the release of the MMORPG, but they need the help of the players.
What do the developers have in mind? In a blog post on elderscrollsonline.com, the developers published a survey that can be filled out until October 3, 2025. They want to learn more about the classes in the game from the players. Since the MMORPG was released in 2014, a lot has changed regarding balance, abilities, and the classes themselves.
Now the developers hope to gain deeper insights from players into the classes, as well as aspects such as “their visual effects and animations, their current abilities, their playstyle, and also their problems.”
The questionnaire represents only a part of the class revisions in the MMORPG. Nevertheless, it already provides a good insight into what is to come.
Here you can watch a trailer for Elder Scrolls Online:

The Elder Scrolls Online: Seasons of the Worm Cult – Part 1 – Release Trailer
Survey reveals what the developers are planning
What does the survey show? The developers’ questionnaire is detailed and shows what the developers are really interested in. Instead of merely asking which class is currently top and which is more of a flop, it first seeks to find out what activities the players are engaging in who are answering the survey.
The players then select one or more classes to which they are to answer 21 detailed questions. For instance, the developers want to know whether players like the class even without subclasses and how well the classes perform in their respective dual-spec, that is, as healer and damage dealer or as tank and damage dealer.
The developers also ask about animations and graphical representation. They are interested in whether the classes look good enough. They are also interested in the active and passive class abilities of the class and whether the class differentiates itself well enough from others.
What happens with the data? The developers will use the data from the survey, which you can fill out on elderscrollsonline.com, in the long run to improve the classes in the MMORPG and to find out where the players’ opinions differ from their assessments.
What exactly happens with the data and how the classes in ESO are supposed to change will be presented by the developers in the coming months as a long-term plan for the MMORPG.

EA FC 26 can be enjoyed not only alone but also online with other players, just like its predecessors. Here you can find out what to pay attention to regarding multiplayer, crossplay, and cross progression.
Is there crossplay in EA FC 26? Yes, you can play with friends on other platforms if you have the following versions:
PC
PlayStation
Xbox
Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 do not support crossplay, so you can only play with friends on the same console family.
Are there any exceptions? Yes, for example, you cannot play with a PS4 version against players on the PS5 and vice versa. The same applies to players who are playing EA FC 26 on the Xbox One – they cannot team up or encounter players on the Xbox Series.
What about cross progression or cross-platform? It is not possible to synchronize your progress between different platforms. So you cannot play on PC and then continue on the Nintendo Switch.
The only exception is the different console generations. You can transfer your progress from PS4 to PS5 or from Xbox One to Xbox Series.

How to disable crossplay
Crossplay is enabled by default. If you only want to encounter players on your platform, you need to disable the function. There are several ways to do this:
EA connect → Social settings → Cross-Play → Cross-Play settings → No
Main menu → Customize → Online settings → Matchmaking options (if you want to go through Ultimate Team)
During the match, you cannot enable or disable the feature. You need to finish your match first in order to make any changes.
All modes where crossplay is possible in EA FC 26
Crossplay does not work in all modes of EA FC 26. You can play cross-platform in the following modes:
A player showcases an impressive PC with two graphics cards and two processors. He uses all the hardware to play with LEGO. In his daily life, he uses software to develop digital LEGO content.
A user has shown his current computer on Reddit. The special thing about the setup is that he has installed two processors and two graphics cards at the same time. Most gamers typically have one CPU and one graphics card installed.
What hardware does he have installed?
Motherboard: Huananzhi X99-F8D Plus
CPU: 2x Xeon E5-2698 v4
GPU: 2x GTX 1660 Super
RAM: 128 GB
Case: Phanteks Enthoo Pro 2
How good is the hardware? When looking at the hardware, one quickly realizes that it consists of older components: The Xeon E5-2698 v4 is a model from 2016, and the GTX 1660 Super is also several years old.
What does he do with the system? The user explains on Reddit that he does not use his computer as a gaming PC. Instead, he uses his PC to build LEGO: On his PC, he primarily uses the software “Bricklink Studio,” which allows users to create virtual LEGO pieces, render designs, and subsequently create instructions.
The most important thing is that this is not a gaming PC. I built it because I found the idea of having two CPUs interesting, and I was able to reuse most of my old computer for this. Additionally, this PC will be heavily used by the software “Studio” from Bricklink, so yes, I built this PC to play with LEGO.
The Bricklink software is especially popular in the so-called “MOC” scene. MOC stands for “My Own Creation” and refers to users who design their own sets and creations using building blocks.
Especially Chinese manufacturers are criticized for frequently copying MOCs without permission and reselling them as their own sets, while the original designers receive neither financial compensation nor permission to use their designs. This practice is seen by many fans and the community as an infringement of intellectual property rights.
Diablo 4 has had a solid start with Season 10. Over 40,000 players have stormed the servers on Steam to play the new content, and although the surprise is great, fans believe they know why.
How successful is Season 10? The current peak on Steam since the release of Season 10 stands at 49,001 concurrent players (as of 12:35 PM on September 29 via steamcharts.com) – this is likely the second-largest peak overall. For comparison: Diablo 4 managed to attract over 55,000 concurrent players at its largest peak during the release of Vessel of Hatred.
For many fans on Reddit, this is a positive sign, as they celebrate the success for their beloved hack & slash. However, some think the rush to Season 10 is due to another reason rather than the quality of the season.

Diablo 4 meets StarCraft: Trailer reveals new skins
Free Weekend and major changes for the endgame
Why is Season 10 so successful? According to Sea_Leadership_7433, the sudden increase in player numbers is likely due to the Free Weekend, where newcomers can test the game for a short time for free. Significant-Lime6340 disputes this theory, stating that this is not the first Free Weekend – Seasons 5 and 7 also had such an event, which did not provide enough incentives to increase the peak this much.
camthalion87 seems to have a different theory, which is also supported by 339 fans. According to him, the popularity is likely related to Diablo 4 making changes in the endgame. Since Season 10 and the Chaos Uniques, fans no longer have to farm Liars to get the best gear. Instead, Hell hordes and other activities also offer high chances for strong loot, which the fans appreciate.
This change would make the endgame more enjoyable and varied, rather than constantly defeating certain bosses as done in previous seasons. For many, this is a welcome change, and they hope, like Karltowns17, that these Chaos armors and the mechanics behind obtaining them will remain in the next seasons.
Hades II is a massive success on Steam. But gradually, the criticism is mounting – and this could deny Hades II its biggest award.
Hades II is one of the big games of 2025 and has met the expectations of most fans. This wasn’t easy, as the predecessor, Hades I, is considered one of the few games that have reached the “God Tier” – games that received over 95% positive ratings and thus belong to the absolute hits. We had already presented 10 of these God Tier games on Steam.
However, Hades II could stumble at this hurdle. The ending is now the subject of criticism – and the more players reach it, the more negative reviews roll in. But is that fair?

A popular roguelike on Steam finally leaves Early Access
What causes negative reviews? Looking at the reviews for Hades II, the overwhelming majority are clearly positive. There is much praise, the gameplay is fantastic, and the amount of content before things actually become repetitive is enormous. However, when filtering the reviews by “negative”, one point in particular is harshly criticized: The story, or more precisely, the ending. This causes a lot of controversy and leaves some clearly dissatisfied.
SPOILER: This is how the story of Hades II ends
In Hades II, you constantly try to permanently destroy the titan Chronos. After many hours of work, you finally get the chance. Melinoe contacts her brother Zagreus, and through various time manipulations, Zagreus can already find the titan Chronos before he regains power. However, Zagreus does not kill Chronos but chooses the path of reconciliation: He wants Chronos to accept his family and live together, rather than oppose Hades and Olympus.
Zagreus is successful in the past, which causes Chronos to be suddenly flooded with memories during the fight against Melinoe, memories he didn’t have before – a pleasant life with family. Chronos recognizes his mistakes, submits to the judgment of the Olympian gods, and subsequently assists Melinoe in freeing further timelines from Chronos, so that “the mere possibility of this future” is erased. This is also the reason why, after the game’s ending, you can still fight against the two bosses Typhon and Chronos, even though they are actually defeated.
This is what the negative reviews say: Looking at the negative reviews, almost all of them exclusively refer to the story and especially the ending of the game. Here are some excerpts from Steam that represent many others:
“It pains me to write a bad review for Hades II (…). I admired Hades II, recommended it to everyone, and defended it against criticism. (…) Then I saw the ending. What the hell, Supergiant?! (…) The ending feels so confusing??? The entire game is good until then. Supergiant was right before the finish line, then suddenly makes a turn and goes in the completely opposite direction.” – moonjellyfish
“The ending of the game ruined the whole experience for me. The narrative feels completely meaningless, as if they built up this dramatic story and then just didn’t know how to lead it to a meaningful or fulfilling conclusion. It left me with no ambition to continue playing the game afterwards. (…) If I could wipe this game from my memory, I would.” – Twilight
“As a beta player from the beginning of early access, even the thought of the worst possible ending I had for the game doesn’t even come close to what they did here.” – lurkershark
Does Hades II fail to achieve the God Tier on Steam?
Currently, Hades II still stands at 96% positive reviews and thus still meets the criteria for the “God Tier” on Steam. But with time passing and more people finishing the story, there could be more negative reviews to come later. Particularly in the Hades subreddit, the ending is heavily criticized and could trigger a wildfire that might end up having the effects of a small review-bombing.

Cortyn says: Honestly, I am a bit surprised by the negative reviews. Because even though the ending is indeed controversial and can be discussed at length – and you don’t have to like the ending – it seems hardly likely that this could transform the game from a positive experience into a negative one. Sure, the ending of a story can have a significant impact on the overall rating, but to rate Hades II as “negative” just because you didn’t like the story’s ending seems plainly unfair to me.
Hades II does so much well, and until you reach the end – and long after that – the gameplay and the other dialogues in the game are simply wonderful, motivating, and in the most positive sense addictive. Those who conclude that the ending has turned the entire game from a positive into a negative experience after the game’s provisional story ending have little understanding from me.
Aside from that: I found the ending good and was satisfied with it. If I hadn’t looked at the reviews, I wouldn’t have even noticed that this apparently poses such a big problem for some.
How do you like Hades II? Have you already completed the story and how satisfied are you with the outcome of the plot? Did you find the ending as disappointing as some of the critical reviews? Or can even a (subjectively) weak ending not spoil the gaming experience? We found that Hades II feels like picking up right where part 1 left off.

October awaits, as usual, with some Spotlight Hours in Pokémon GO. What they are and whether they are worth it has been summarized for you by MeinMMO.
What is a Spotlight Hour? A Spotlight Hour is an event that takes place every Tuesday for 60 minutes. During this time, you can expect at least one Pokémon that is in the spotlight and appears in high numbers, as well as a bonus.
We have looked into which Pokémon and bonuses await you in October 2025 during the Spotlight Hours and summarized them for you.

All Spotlight Hours in October 2025
When do the Spotlight Hours take place? Every Tuesday at 6:00 PM, the Spotlight Hour begins. Exactly 60 minutes later, at 7:00 PM, it ends. In the following table, you can see which Spotlight Hours await you in October. Pokémon that can appear as Shiny are marked with an *.
Date
Pokémon & Bonus
October 7
Ferroseed* and double evolution XP
October 14
Petilil* and double catch Stardust
October 21
Gastly* and double catch XP
October 28
Sinistea and double catch candies
Spotlight Hour on October 7, 2025
Which Pokémon is in the spotlight? Ferroseed awaits you in the first Spotlight Hour in October 2025. This Pokémon has the types Grass and Steel and comes from Generation 5. It has an evolution to Ferrothorn.
Which bonus is active? If you evolve a Pokémon during this event, you will receive double the amount of experience points. It doesn’t matter which Pokémon you evolve – the bonus applies to every evolution you perform during the event in the game.
Is the event worth it? If you want to use Ferroseed and its evolution for raids, you might want to skip this one. Both Pokémon are not among the best attackers in Pokémon GO.
Neither Pokémon is particularly well-suited for the battle league.
If you are currently still farming experience points before the level system change, you can use this event to gain some additional experience points through evolutions. If you still use Lucky Eggs during this time, you will receive quadruple the amount of experience points for each evolution.
Can you catch Shiny Ferroseed? Yes. If you’re lucky, you may encounter the Shiny variant of Ferroseed during the event. However, the chance is not increased.
Spotlight Hour on October 14, 2025
Which Pokémon is in the spotlight? Petilil is waiting for you in the Spotlight Hour on October 14, 2025. This Pokémon comes from Generation 5 and is of the Grass type. It also has an evolution to Lilligant.
Which bonus is active? In this Spotlight Hour, you will receive double the amount of Stardust when you catch a Pokémon. The bonus is active for every Pokémon.
Is the event worth it? As attackers, Petilil and Lilligant are not worth using for raids or the battle league.
If you want to collect some extra Stardust, you can use this event for that purpose. While Petilil is not a Pokémon that generally brings you more Stardust, with the bonus and the use of Stardust items, you can receive quadruple the amount of Stardust.
Can you catch Shiny Petilil? Yes, you can also obtain this Pokémon as Shiny. But again, the chance is not increased.
Which Pokémon is in the spotlight? On October 21, Gastly awaits you in the Spotlight Hour. This Pokémon comes from Generation 1 and is of the Ghost and Poison types. It can evolve into Haunter and then into Gengar.
Which bonus is active? During this Spotlight Hour, you will receive double the amount of experience points for each Pokémon you catch. The bonus applies not only to Gastly but to every Pokémon you catch.
Is the event worth it? Although Gastly and its evolutions have been in the game since the beginning of Pokémon GO, Gengar is still one of the best attackers. You can play this Pokémon as a Ghost attacker and also as a Poison attacker.
The effect is also helpful if you are gathering experience points. If you use Lucky Eggs, you will even receive quadruple the amount of experience points for each catch.
Can you catch Shiny Gastly? Yes, Gastly can also be caught as Shiny with a bit of luck.
Spotlight Hour on October 28, 2025
Which Pokémon is in the spotlight? Just before Halloween, the Ghost Pokémon Sinistea awaits you in the Spotlight Hour. It comes from Generation 8 and can evolve into Polteageist. It also has, like its evolution, 2 forms: the Original and the Fake form.
Which bonus is active? In this Spotlight Hour, you will receive double the amount of candies when you catch Pokémon. As usual, the bonus applies not only to Sinistea but to every Pokémon you catch during the Spotlight Hour.
If you have Pokémon as rewards that you haven’t picked up yet, you can also catch them during this event with the bonus. Using Pinap Berries additionally increases the amount of candies you receive.
Is the event worth it? From a combat perspective, Sinistea and Polteageist are not significant. However, if you are missing these Pokémon in both forms, you can use this event to fill that gap.
Can you catch Shiny Sinistea? No. The Shiny variant of Sinistea is not yet active in the game.
Not only the Spotlight Hours are waiting for you in October in Pokémon GO. There are also many other events, raids, and content. If you want to know when which activity awaits you in the game, feel free to take a look at our overview of all events in October 2025 in Pokémon GO.

Dawn of War 4 continues an old and beloved strategy game series in the world of Warhammer 40,000. In a new trailer, the creators showcase gameplay, reaching hundreds of thousands in just a few hours. The trailer is received so well that fans only argue about minor details, but with passion.
Dawn of War 4 is classic real-time strategy: You build a base, train troops, and let them compete in a detailed single-player campaign or skirmishes against each other. Each of the 4 initially available factions comes with its own units and mechanics.
The strategy game is set to be released in 2026. Behind Dawn of War 4 is the German developer studio King Art, which aims to recapture the style of the first installment. The latest trailer shows exactly that.
This is the new trailer: During the Tokyo Game Show 2025, a new gameplay trailer for Dawn of War 4 was released. The nearly 2 minutes are fully recorded in-engine, showing pure gameplay at times and cinematic close-ups at others.
Remarkably, all visible animations also occur in the game. In an interview with PC Gamer, the developers explain on YouTube: These “Sync Kills” are one of the focal points of development.
The original Dawn of War had contextual animations for combat, particularly in close combat. Almost every unit had a special kill animation for every other unit in the game, which created a much more intense gameplay experience. King Art aims to bring this feeling back with Dawn of War 4.
The trailer shows, for instance, how the Robo-Spiders and a “Killa Kan” of the Necrons dismantle one of the powerful Dreadnoughts of the Space Marines or how some fighters of the Adeptus Mechanicus – the first new faction in Dawn of War 4 – battle Orks with their swords.

“Is it just me, or does it look too clean?”
In less than a day, the trailer has gained over 350,000 views and over 28,000 upvotes. On Reddit, it is a major topic of conversation and receives heaps of praise, especially for the animations – with a few very minor criticisms.
A significantly larger point that is repeatedly raised, however, is the sound design. It is very fitting for all factions, except for the Space Marines. The community feels that the super-soldiers sound too clean and honorable.
Space Marines are the absolute elite of the Imperium in Warhammer 40,000 and seemingly their honorable knights, but in Warhammer, no one is truly “good”. However, in the new Dawn of War, the Space Marines lack something they had previously, namely Vox noises:
I am not a fan of the Space Marine voice. I think they did not go with the Vox effect from the original so that the game wouldn’t have three factions full of crackling tin cans, but something is off about the way they made the Space Marines.
I think they are trying for an “overly noble knight voice,” but it lacks conviction and the rage of the Space Marines. Instead, it comes off as harsh and forced.
Vox is somewhat like radio in Warhammer, just with a name adapted to the language and – due to the technology – with lower quality than what we are used to today. After all, technology is a tricky subject in Warhammer 40,000.
Some users explain: This is because these are Primaris Marines, the new and improved version of the Space Marines. They visually look less tough and dirty than their predecessors and the voice-over might reflect that.

Tips to quickly achieve Platinum
What can be done to be as quick as possible? There are some things to focus on for each mode. You can follow the following strategies to play as efficiently as possible:
Ultimate Team: Here, you should prioritize Division Rivals and collect weekly points, it can also help to keep an eye on the transfer market and plan purchases/sales according to SBC demand
Career: Here, it may help to reduce the difficulty level if necessary and especially participate in major matches
Clubs: Here, it helps to focus on a consistent team and participate in live events to gain bonus progress
Also, try to focus on multiple objectives per match simultaneously to save time. Therefore, it is worth combining simple bronze objectives with harder or longer-term silver or gold trophies. Additionally, always fulfill your weekly objectives, as these play a significant role in achieving the harder trophies.
The Twitch streamer and YouTuber “IShowSpeed” is currently on a streaming marathon while traveling across the USA. When he comes across the house of Walter White from Breaking Bad, the police must be called.
What was the streamer’s plan? Darren “IShowSpeed” Watkins Jr. is currently streaming his journey through the USA in a 35-day-long livestream. On this journey, he has come across a location that many series fans might recognize. It is, in fact, the house of the protagonist of the series Breaking Bad, Walter White.
The house really exists and is privately owned by Joana Quintana, who has lived in the house since childhood (Source: Channel 5 via YouTube). This lady also appeared in the clip of the stream shared on Reddit.
When the streamer is not alone, but with a large crowd of fans in front of the property, the woman feels compelled to call the police.
This is IShowSpeed:

How does the streamer react in the situation? In the clip, you can see and hear IShowSpeed shouting questions to the owner of the house, asking if he can talk to her, but the interruptions from his fans are so loud that he cannot understand the woman’s response. It does not help that he asks his fans to be quiet.
The woman shakes her head, makes clear dismissive hand gestures, and then disappears behind closed doors amid the boos from IShowSpeed’s fans. The streamer appears visibly annoyed and frustrated, having to realize that the woman has called the police, who arrive at the property after a few moments.

Who is IShowSpeed? The 20-year-old IShowSpeed is one of the most successful streamers worldwide, who garnered a lot of attention and gained notoriety due to his behavior and actions, but also caused various scandals.
The Twitch streamer Maximilian “HandOfBlood” Knabe answers a series of questions in an interview with 1LIVE. Among other things, the question arose with whom he would hypothetically move into a shared apartment with his influencer colleagues. HandOfBlood finds this difficult, as he says: “I just hate influencers.”
What does HandOfBlood say about influencers? In the “Questions Barrage” interview from 1LIVE, the Twitch streamer HandOfBlood answered some questions. One of them was: Which other YouTuber could you imagine living in a shared apartment with?
HandOfBlood chuckles at this question before he finally says: “I just hate influencers. ‘Hate’ is a strong word, but I’ve done that two times already and that is…” (Source: YouTube from minute 02:17). He leaves the sentence unfinished.
HandOfBlood’s statement is absurd in the context that he himself is one of the biggest influencers in Germany. With over 1.44 million followers on Twitch, HandOfBlood ranks 12th in the follower ranking (Source: nindo.de).
HandOfBlood: The most important thing about the YouTuber and Twitch streamer in under a minute
“A dreary cohabitation, but at least you have your peace”
HandOfBlood would only move in with Gronkh: After a brief consideration, HandOfBlood continues and his choice falls on the Twitch streamer and YouTuber Erik “Gronkh” Range, because: “He just sits in the basement and plays all day (…)”. This way neither Gronkh nor HandOfBlood would annoy the other, and they would both have their peace: “It would be more of a dreary cohabitation, but at least you have your peace.”
What else does HandOfBlood say in the interview? HandOfBlood answered more questions. Here are some highlights summarized for you:
The Twitch streamer explains how his nickname “Hänno” came about. A small child wanted to call his name at gamescom in 2016/2017 but mumbled it so much that it sounded like “HännoBlood”.
If HandOfBlood could only play one game for the rest of his life, it would be World of Warcraft. He adds: “But Classic! (…) You retail pigs, all of you should get your thumbs cut off!” (Source: YouTube from minute 01:20).
HandOfBlood never thought he could make money from playing video games. In the society he grew up in, “gaming would have been the absolute enemy image”. All the adults around him advised him to learn something “real”.
Xiaomi entered the automotive market in 2024. Now the CEO revealed that they bought three Teslas and dismantled them. The aim was to draw conclusions about the technology and learn for their own products.
Now Xiaomi’s CEO, Lei Jun, revealed that they bought three electric cars from the competition and dismantled them to learn something from them. This was reported by the English-language magazine Businessinsider.com.

What did the CEO of Xiaomi say? During his annual speech on Thursday, September 25, 2025, Lei Jun, CEO of Xiaomi, stated that the company purchased three Tesla Model Y vehicles and took them apart for examination. He told a large audience at the Beijing National Convention Center:
We purchased three Model Y vehicles earlier this year, dismantled the parts individually, and examined each component separately.
Lei added that he considers Tesla’s Model Y to be a really good car. He also mentioned in the conversation:
If you do not choose the [Xiaomi] YU7, you might want to consider the Model Y.
He added that the Xiaomi team had long pondered how to best design the interior of the SUV. Lei stated that the final version of the YU7 design “definitely holds its own against the Model Y.”
Can you buy Xiaomi cars in Germany? No, Xiaomi’s new electric vehicle is currently not available for purchase in Germany. The Chinese manufacturer plans to offer its vehicles in Europe starting from 2027. Other Chinese manufacturers are already expanding significantly into Europe. Thus, the manufacturer BYD aims to conquer Europe with its cars soon and is putting considerable pressure on domestic manufacturers.
China currently faces a problem with too many electric vehicles: The domestic market produces so many cars that new cars are now even being sold as used. Nevertheless, this does not change the fact that there are large overcapacities in China: China produces so many cars that new vehicles must now be sold as used.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is great – but why has hardly anyone completed it? Most have never finished the mega RPG.
The release of Baldur’s Gate 3 is now 2 years ago, and most players should have had more than enough time to finish the mega role-playing game. However, this apparently is not the case. A look at the achievements on Steam shows: Less than a quarter of the community has finished the game. But these are even extremely good values when compared.
Start video
Der animierte Kurzfilm zu Patch 8, dem letzten Update für Baldur’s Gate 3
How many people have completed Baldur’s Gate 3? If you want to know how many players have completed a particular game, there is at least on Steam a relatively simple way to check this. You just have to look at the achievements and see how many people have earned the achievement for the final boss, the last chapter, or any other ending.
For Baldur’s Gate, this is the achievement “All’s Well That Ends Well” and the current value is at 23.4% – so slightly less than a quarter of the player base.
Less than a quarter have brought Baldur’s Gate 3 to an end.
How do other games fare? That the value for Baldur’s Gate 3, although it is just under 25%, is extremely high, is especially shown by the direct comparison with other games. For example, if you look at The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which was released over 10 years ago – meaning 5 times more time has passed – the completion rate is only 22.5%.
In other RPGs, such as Pathfinder: Kingmaker, it is even more drastic. There, only 9.6% have finished the game – not even every 10th person.
What percentages are excluded? For Baldur’s Gate 3, it must also be noted that a small percentage is excluded, such as when modding the game – in that case, no achievements are awarded.
Also included in the percentage are people who bought the game and then returned it during the 2-hour refund window. Even these players are already counted in the achievement statistics.
Community sees many reasons why players don’t finish
If you look at the comments in the related Reddit post, you will find many reasons in the community why players never reach the end of Baldur’s Gate 3. Some theories and excerpts from it:
“Most games, especially big RPGs, have very low completion rates. You’d be surprised how many people buy a full-price title, play it for an evening, and then never touch it again.” – Kalecraft
“Sorry, I’m currently playing Act 1 for the 90th time.” – MrRightHanded
One argument is that Baldur’s Gate 3 loses a bit of momentum in Act 3. The city of Baldur’s Gate has so much to offer that the prevailing urgency suddenly finds an end, and one can get overwhelmed by side quests, potentially losing interest:
“The Lower City [of Baldur’s Gate] is just too big, and you know it.” – WWnoname
Battlefield 6 has released a new trailer that starts with a diss aimed at the competition from Call of Duty. Fans are celebrating the trailer and expect a big advertising rivalry to unfold.
What kind of trailer is this? Battlefield 6 has uploaded a new trailer showcasing, in live-action style, how a squad of soldiers fights against a tank and other enemies. Various gadgets from the game are used, causing powerful explosions and massive destruction.
But before the actual trailer, Battlefield 6 takes a jab at Call of Duty in one scene, bringing in prominent support for this purpose.
Here you can see the new trailer:

The New Advertising War
What happens at the beginning? At the beginning of the trailer, four men exit a car. For an operation in a war zone, they appear hardly equipped. While they carry heavy weapons, some are dressed in short-sleeved clothing or wearing a bandana. The four men are the celebrities:
Actor Zac Efron
Basketball player Jimmy Butler
Singer and songwriter Morgan Wallen
UFC fighter Paddy Pimblett
However, while the four walk coolly towards the camera, everything explodes, and only a shoe flies across the screen. The actual trailer begins with the words: “Who was that?” – “It doesn’t matter.”
The scene is clearly an attack on Call of Duty, which has repeatedly used prominent faces in its trailers and even brought them into the game as skins in recent years. This has drawn a lot of criticism from fans from the start, especially when noticeable figures like US rapper Nicki Minaj with pink hair and outfit appeared on the battlefield.
How are fans reacting to the attack? Fans are greatly celebrating the opening scene of the trailer. They feel it’s exactly right to poke at Call of Duty’s sore spots and then show in the rest of the trailer how an exciting trailer can be created without celebrities.
This sentiment is echoed in comments on YouTube, where players express that the Battlefield 6 community thinks the very thoughts “Who was that?” – “It doesn’t matter.” when trailers feature celebrities. The choice to deliberately attack the controversial skins of the competition is also welcomed in the comments.
For other viewers, the trailer even represents a declaration of war for an advertising battle akin to that of Pepsi and Coca-Cola. The two companies have been attacking and tricking each other in advertising for years. This also involved the playable US rapper Snoop Dogg in Call of Duty, as shown in a video on YouTube. Fans believe such an advertising war could now also occur between the two shooter rivals.
Whether the trailer sparks a new advertising war between Battlefield and Call of Duty remains to be seen. Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 launches on November 14, about a month after Battlefield 6, which is set for release on October 10. So there is still plenty of time for mutual advertising attacks. The head of Battlefield 6 also believes in her game: She says she owes players a good Battlefield 6 to make up for the predecessor.

The Amazon MMORPG New World is suddenly back among the best-selling games on Steam, and a free expansion is the reason for this.
Which MMORPG is it about? New World is Amazon’s first MMORPG and was released in September 2021. The MMORPG started strong back then, with over 900,000 players and hours-long queues. Over the years, the MMORPG fell further and further, partly because the important release of the expansion “Aeternum” coincided with the launch of its in-house competitor Throne and Liberty.
In 2025, the MMORPG quietly ran with around 8,000 to 12,000 players on Steam (via SteamDB). Now, however, the MMORPG is suddenly back among the bestsellers and has gained 5,000 new players.
Here you can see how the MMORPG once looked:

New World: Die ersten Schritte in der ursprünglichen Version
Comeback for New World
Why is the MMORPG making a comeback now? Looking at the peak player numbers for New World, there has been a noticeable upward trend since October 2024. While more and more players have rediscovered the MMORPG since June, there was a significant jump of over 5,000 players in the last two weeks.
The MMORPG can also be found among the bestsellers on Steam in Germany. Here it ranks 37th and is back in the top 100 for the first time.
This is likely related to the new season “Nighthaven.” It has turned out to be a major content update that promises not just some cosmetics but a lot of new content and even aims to raise the maximum level to 70. It will be available for free to all owners of the MMORPG starting October 13.
Players on Reddit also explain that they are hopeful for the release of “Nighthaven” and are starting the game again for that reason.
What does Nighthaven bring? The new season brings, fitting for Halloween, the new area Nighthaven, filled with werewolves, vampires, and other dark creatures. The new area offers not only new quests but also the new raid Nachtinsel, designed for 10 players.
New are also the random dungeons, which are generated for a group of up to 3 players and offer monsters and bosses to defeat. For the defeated enemies, you collect power-ups, cursed resources, and currency that you have to bring out of the respective dungeon before time runs out. With each defeated boss, the difficulty increases, but so does the quality of the loot.
In addition to the content, there is a lot of change regarding equipment and sets in the game. Equipment pieces are expected to provide more gameplay-changing effects in the future rather than just increasing stats.

In Dungeons & Dragons there are many diverse peoples – many often prefer the classics like humans, elves, dwarves, or orcs. Here we introduce 7 exciting races you can play if “classic” is too boring for you.
Many games repeatedly rely on the classic races in role-playing games, such as humans, elves, dwarves, orcs, which are as common in fantasy as sand on the beach. The tabletop role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons is no exception (see for example YouTube).
However, there are over 100 different races and variants, which can not only make your role-playing significantly more interesting but also provide very useful gameplay mechanics and advantages. Therefore, we present 7 species here that you should not miss because they fly somewhat under the radar.

Genasi
Genasi are a race of half-elemental beings derived from the union of mortals and the powers of the elemental planes. They combine human traits with the powers of earth, fire, water, or air, which strongly shapes their appearance and abilities.
Each of the four variants – earth, fire, water, and air Genasi – brings its own advantages. Earth Genasi can move through earth, fire Genasi have natural fire protection and can create flames, water Genasi can breathe underwater and move effortlessly in it, while air Genasi are particularly fast and do not even need to breathe.
All Genasi also receive a small spell focus since each variant has access to magical abilities that correspond to their element. This offers players a great variety of opportunities to create visually and mechanically distinct characters that stand out from the classic fantasy races.

On Sunday, September 28, 2025, the final of the LEC 2025 Summer Playoffs took place in League of Legends in Madrid. The Spanish team Movistar KOI faced off against the favorite G2. Although both teams had already qualified for Worlds 2025, the title of the European league was now at stake.
What a match it was! While G2, with Danish midlaner Caps, who is regarded as one of the best European players, had already qualified for the LEC final on September 14, 2025, the second final spot had to be contested on September 26 and September 27, 2025.
Thus, on September 28, 2025, the legendary team G2, led by Caps, faced Movistar KOI. In a rather one-sided match, Caps and his team secured the victory without major problems.

G2 shows its best side
How did the matchup between the two teams go? From the start, both teams tried to initiate fights on their lanes, especially G2. Initially, they struggled to get through. Caps even gave away the first kill. However, G2 didn’t give up and steadily applied pressure. The team demonstrated one thing clearly: They can execute teamfights.
With calmness and great positioning, they dominated the second teamfight and built on that. They started more fights, remained composed, and slowly dismantled the base of Movistar KOI. In the end, the Spaniards could do nothing against it, and G2 achieved the first victory of the encounter. Special mention should go to Skewmond (Jungle/Wukong) and Labrov (Support/Rakan), both of whom had a 100% kill participation.
How did the second match go? The second match also started quite evenly. As usual, G2 tried again to force fights and conflicts to unsettle MKOI. The Spaniards resisted and didn’t give G2 easy kills. After 20 minutes, it was close; neither team had a significant gold advantage.
After 24 minutes, MKOI won a teamfight and gained a gold lead of almost 4,000. However, G2 didn’t like that, started a fight shortly after, won it, and secured the Baron. With that, they could build up significant pressure. At minute 32, they took the Baron again. Almost 2 minutes later, a final teamfight occurred. G2 won that, thus winning the second match as well.
Match 3 started pretty poorly for MKOI. In an invade right at the start, G2’s support and jungler secured two kills. This dominance continued throughout the entire game. They toyed with the opponent and gave them no chance for a comeback. The team around Caps demonstrated what high level they play at in Europe. After 28 minutes, G2 easily finished the third match and became the European champion of the LEC 2025 Summer Playoffs.
What’s next for Europe at the World Championship? 3 teams have qualified for Worlds: Fnatic, Movistar KOI, and G2. Especially G2 will likely be the biggest hope for Europe. In the final of the LEC 2025 Summer Playoffs, they demonstrated how much better they played than the other teams.
They not only have experienced players; they are a strong team, can play teamfights calmly and well-positioned, and they can apply pressure and force fights. Whether they can prove themselves against teams from Korea and China will be seen soon. The Worlds begin on October 14, 2025, with T1, who must fight against iG for the last spot in the main event.

Since the movie about Superman, fans have considered Lex Luthor a character that particularly hates his hero. But nothing compares to a villain who was once a big fan.
Which villain is it? Eobart Thawne made his first appearance in 1963 in the comic The Flash No. 139. Thawne was born in the 25th century and was a big fan of Flash; one might even say he was obsessed.
He obsessively tried to explore the Speed Force, the power behind the Flash’s abilities, to become like his great hero.
When he managed to gain the Speed Force, there wasn’t much for heroes to do. So he took matters into his own hands. He pushed a woman off a roof and saved her right after to enjoy the glory.
But at some point, Thawne realized he was never meant to be a hero. His fate was to become the Reverse Flash, a counterpart to the real Flash. This drove him mad, and his admiration turned into hatred, which he made Flash feel quite intensely.
Start video
The Flash – German Trailer
There are few villains that hate as much as Reverse Flash
What has Reverse Flash done? Thawne dedicated his life to Flash, namely Barry Allen. He did everything possible to destroy his life. He is probably even worse than a nasty Marvel villain. He traveled to the past and changed the future.
This way, he killed Barry Allen’s mother in his childhood and ensured that Barry’s father was punished for the murder. But he also did more complex things to create more enemies for Barry. The villain Zoom arose solely because of Thawne.
But even though he hates Flash and can travel through time, he cannot kill him there or ensure that he does not gain the Speed Force. This is because his existence as Reverse Flash depends on the existence of the hero Flash.
Since he still wants to unleash his hatred, he quietly torments Barry in his childhood, as shown in the One Shot Flashpoint: Reverse Flash No. 1 (via x.com):
He pushes little Barry down the stairs
Ensures that he does not catch a baseball as a child
He also caused a gust of wind that blew his homework away
Wipes out the existence of his childhood friend so that Barry has no friends left
Apart from that, he regularly attempts to kill Barry’s wife and other friends and lovers. The irony is that his fate is to lose, as he is the counterpart of Flash. He exists only because of him, and Flash exists only because of Reverse Flash.
When Barry tried to save his mother in the past, he created the Flashpoint universe. In this dystopian world, there is no Justice League, Aquaman and Wonder Woman are at war, and Batman is not Bruce Wayne but his brutal father (via IGN).
How do I best experience Reverse Flash? If you are only interested in the villain, there are several options, including series and movies:
If you want to experience the entire Flashpoint saga, you can get the complete edition, which is relatively expensive with over 1500 pages and more suitable for collectors.
The One Shot Flashpoint: Reverse Flash is only available as a single issue in English, so you would have to buy the issue used or read it as a Kindle version.
In the comic series: The Flash: Rebirth, Eobert Thawne plays an important role.
If you prefer to watch something, the CW Flash series is a good choice. While it is often cheesy and not incredibly well produced, the Reverse Flash has a prominent role.
If you are an animation fan, the movie Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox might be worth your time.
