In Fortnite: Battle Royale Venom will soon appear as a skin. The skin will be the next reward for the Marvel Cup. We will show you how to unlock the Venom skin.
What is a skin? In Fortnite, various tournaments from the Marvel Knockout: Super Series take place. As a reward, players always receive a special Marvel skin. The series started with the Daredevil Cup, where you could unlock the Daredevil skin.
Now the next cup is set to take place, and this time the reward is a skin of the villain Venom. This is what the outfit looks like that you can win:
Venom is coming to Fortnite
How to get the Venom skin for free
To earn the skin for free, you must participate in the Venom Cup. We will show you how to join and what conditions must be met.
When does the cup take place? The Venom Cup will take place on November 18, 2020. In this tournament, you will be able to compete twice at different times:
Wednesday, November 18, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM
Wednesday, November 18, from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM
You should plan approximately 3 hours for the tournament if you want to participate.
How to participate in the Venom Cup
What do you need to do? Since this is a duo tournament, you first need a partner to participate with you. However, anyone who wants to take part in the cup must meet these conditions:
The Fortnite account must have reached at least level 30
Important: These conditions apply to both duo partners participating in the tournament and must be met by both accordingly.
Make sure to enable two-factor authentication, as this condition has been present in every Marvel tournament so far.
What are the rewards?
What can you win for free this time? In all Marvel tournaments so far, players have been able to obtain a new hero from the Marvel universe along with their back bling. As mentioned above, this time the Venom skin is up for grabs. Additionally, you will receive these items from the set:
The integrated emote “We Are Venom”
The back bling “Tentacle Bag”
The pickaxe “Symbiote Slicer”
Only players who place among the top 1,200 will receive the skin set for free and before everyone else.
Can you also get the skin outside of the tournament? If you do not place among the top 1,200 players, you still have a chance at Venom. The reward skin will later appear in the item shop and will then be available to all players. However, they will have to pay for it if they want it.
In Destiny 2 Beyond Light, fans are currently enjoying a silly dialogue. However, the existence of these lines is the fault of the nasty Corona virus. Read here on MeinMMO what the Drifter-Ghost dialogue is about and why the plague plays a role.
What kind of dialogue is that? In the current expansion Beyond Light, you can steal an exotic grenade launcher called “Grip of Salvation.” The associated mission is offered to you by the Drifter, the mysterious wanderer who walks between Light and Darkness. You can find a guide to the grenade launcher here on MeinMMO:
In the original version of Destiny 2, the Drifter has a characteristic speech style reminiscent of a space cowboy. However, since the Drifter does not speak for himself in the mission, your helpful ghost handles the briefing. And that, although the Drifter previously mocked the ghost that he certainly could not communicate the thing sensibly to your Guardian.
But the ghost does not make it easy and intentionally imitates the Drifter in a half-hearted, lazy manner. You can hear the dialogue at the very beginning of this video:

Here you can hear the dialogue at the very beginning.
The dialogue is well-received by Destiny 2 fans, and on reddit, they are already celebrating the lines with more than 1,700 upvotes and in 163 comments as the best dialogue in the Beyond Light expansion. However, there is a bigger story behind the dialogue.
Without Corona, the funny dialogue in Beyond Light wouldn’t exist
This is what’s behind the dialogue: In the reddit thread, a Bungie employee under the alias Gunmaster95 eventually chimed in and brought more information to light about the dialogue. The whole thing was actually a stopgap solution, as they couldn’t book the voice actor for the Drifter due to Corona:
Fun Fact: This actually happened because we were unable to book Drifter’s voice actor for this mission due to the complicated situation due to COVID. He was supposed to do the radio dialogue. One of our writers had the idea that Ghost should just pretend to be Drifter instead (since Mr. North [Nolan North, the voice of Ghost] was available) and wrote all these fantastic dialogues. Apparently, Nolan perfectly imitated Drifter right off the bat and had to be instructed to intentionally do it worse. The end result is some of my favorite dialogues from this release.
Gunmaster95
So they had to make Nolan North, the new voice of the Ghost, take over the part of the Drifter and ended up with a much better result than if everything had gone correctly from the start.
If you are still a big fan of the Drifter, you will certainly enjoy this article: There the Vagabond says the word “thing” very often accompanied by the fox’s suffering. Check out the funny clip here on MeinMMO. Enjoy!

The start of Season 22 in Diablo 3 is just around the corner. It begins this week. Vote and let us know which class you will play, or consult the Wheel of Fate if you need help deciding.
What’s happening in Diablo 3? On Friday, November 20, 2020, Season 22 launches in Diablo 3. Given this time, some players are now asking: Which class will I choose to play in Season 22?
We want to find out in this article if you have already made a choice. If not, we offer you the Wheel of Fate to let chance decide your class choice.
What you need to know for class selection
Large selection of starter sets: In the past, players used the selection of starter sets as a guide for which class they wanted to play. The class that had the better or newer set in the selection at Haedrig’s Gift was often a favorite.
In Season 22, the selection is harder, as each of the seven classes receives the newest set as a starter set. So, if you have taken a few seasons off, you will discover some new play styles here.
For your reference, we link to the sets with the corresponding set bonuses here.
Vote now: Only a few days separate you from the start of the new season. Participate in the poll here on MeinMMO and show us which class you want to play.
If you’re still undecided, there’s a Wheel of Fate further down. A spin on it will randomly select one of the seven possible classes for you.
You have one vote per user for the poll. If you want to play multiple classes in Season 22, just vote here for the class you are most excited about.
Ask Fate about your class for S22
This is what you can use: We are embedding a Wheel of Fate for you here. Well, actually, it’s just a kind of random wheel that spits out the name of a class after a few spins.
You simply click on the embedded wheel and it starts spinning. The class it stops on will then be your choice for Season 22. You can later still cast your vote for it in the poll above.

The Team Solo Mid blows up their setup in the League of Legends once again. TSM is reportedly replacing the top laner Broken Blade with Huni, a Korean veteran. This time, the German LoL team Schalke 04 will likely benefit from this. Broken Blade is supposed to join them, one of the biggest talents in German LoL.
What’s going on in LoL? The “trading season” has begun in LoL. Teams have been able to announce official transfers since yesterday. And there are transfers happening left and right, and the rumor mill is overflowing.
The transfers we present here are not official yet, but they are almost certain. The teams are already hinting at the transfers and making jokes about it. Insider Jacob Wolf, who reports on transfers in a barrage, is proud to have never been wrong in 5 years when announcing such transfers in advance.
Bjergsen is retired. TSM is looking for a replacement.
The Team Solo Mid is looking for a new king
This is the situation at TSM: A team that is under tremendous pressure for the LoL year 2021 is “Team Solo Mid,” the most glorious team in North America. This is also the team with the biggest wallet, as is assumed:
For 3 years, TSM has been completely blowing up its team in the offseason and restructuring. TSM has been trying for years to connect with the “golden era” of 2016/2017, when TSM became champions in the US league LCS three times in a row.
After that, mid lane star Bjergsen announced his retirement. Bjergsen was not only considered the franchise player of TSM but also as “The King” and the most important figure in the team for years.
Now TSM is forced to change the lineup again and is switching not only the mid lane but also the top lane – once again, everything is revamped before a new year.
The German Power of Evil is supposed to be the new mid laner of TSM.
TSM allegedly acquires Huni, gives up Broken Blade
These are the changes at TSM:
It’s relatively clear how TSM will replace Bjergsen: One of the best German LoL players, Power of Evil, is supposed to join TSM and take over the mid lane. This has been known for some time, although it is not yet official.
New, however, is that TSM has signed the Korean Huni for the top lane. Huni (22) had his best time in 2016/2017 when he played for SKT1 in South Korea. However, he later moved to the West. There, he reportedly has been paid handsomely. It was said that Dignitas offered him a record sum: Huni is said to have earned more than one million US dollars a year.
This is Huni.
What does this mean for Schalke? If Team Solo Mid has a new top laner, the old top laner is free.
The German-Turkish Broken Blade (20) is supposed to join Schalke 04 now. There he will replace Odoamne (25), who will move to Rogue.

Schalke keeps its strongest player from 2020, gets 2 new ones
What will Schalke’s team look like? Allegedly, another player from the USA is supposed to join Schalke: The support player Limit (22) is expected to move from SK Gaming to Schalke (via dotesports).
Schalke has already extended contracts with mid laner Abbedagge and the star of the team, jungler Gilius.
Top laner Odoamne (25) has announced his transfer to Rogue.
If Broken Blade really comes, maybe the ADC spot would be free. Here, there was a back and forth between two rookie players in 2020.
Gilius is the star of Schalke, whose contract has been extended.
Is this good for Schalke? Broken Blade is considered a player on the rise with a lot of potential. Huni is considered more of a player whose best time is behind him, even though he is only 22.
At TSM, much recently revolved around the top lane and Broken Blade – however, that hasn’t worked out, at least not on an international level.
Apparently, they are now planning a “new beginning” with different people and also a change in style. This will likely please the bot laner Doublelift.
Doublelift tells horror stories about how TSM fell apart during the Worlds 2020.
During the Worlds 2020, “Team Solo Mid” reportedly fell apart because they were hopeless even in practice games. This had a disastrous effect on TSM’s morale, Doublelift said in his Twitch streams.
It could be that TSM is seeking a radical fresh start and wants to change more than just the mid lane.
The big beneficiary here is Schalke, who will get one of the possibly best German players.
Schalke had really turned things around after an extremely poor start in 2020. With Broken Blade, they could further strengthen a well-functioning team and possibly play a strong role in the EU league LEC in 2021.
Gilius: The jungler is considered the star of the team and is currently in top form.
The major upswing at Schalke 04 was largely due to Erberk “Gilius” Demir (23). The jungler powered up, and with him, Schalke became one of the best teams in European LoL. Together with Broken Blade, a powerful team could emerge in Germany:
Ihlas Bebou has an exciting RTTF card in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team. On the transfer market, it costs a significant amount of coins. However, the card could be worth its price.
This is the card: The Hoffenheim striker Ihlas Bebou has received a so-called “Road-to-the-Final” card in the Europa League version. Currently, it has an overall rating of 80 – but it has the potential to increase further. The further TSG Hoffenheim progresses in the Europa League, the stronger the Bebou card will become in FIFA 21.
This is the new Bebou card
This is how much the card costs: With an overall rating of 80, the card might not seem worth much at first glance. One might be surprised when seeing the price tag of currently around 96,000 coins. That’s how much Bebou is currently going for on the transfer market.
This is surprising, especially because the market in FIFA 21 is notoriously low. For comparison: The RTTF Bebou is thus more expensive than the standard cards of:
Robert Lewandowski (around 66,000 coins)
Joshua Kimmich (around 30,000)
Leroy Sané (around 14,000)
Marco Reus (around 10,000)
Great players who cost noticeably less. Is such an expensive card really worth it?
What Bebou does well: First, the question arises as to why an 80-rated card commands such a high price on the transfer market. There are several answers to this.
First, there is the possibility of Bebou’s card becoming stronger through upgrades. Just reaching the knockout phase would mean a jump in ratings, and after that, there is an upgrade for every additional round completed. Since Hoffenheim is currently in Group L of the Europa League, ranking 1st with three wins and a good lead, progressing is very likely. And with it, an upgrade for Bebou.
The RTTF cards promise upgrades
But even without upgrades, Bebou in this form is an exciting card, as it fills a gap in the Bundesliga in FUT.
The best striker cards in the Bundesliga currently include Lewandowski, Haaland, Kramaric as POTM, and TOTW Max Kruse. All good strikers, but none shine with extreme speed. The fastest Bundesliga striker in FIFA 20 was Timo Werner, who moved to England, leaving a vacuum behind.
At the beginning of the Ultimate Team season, this gap was somewhat filled by Leipzig’s Hee-Chan Hwang, but a truly fast forward with high ratings has been lacking until now. And Bebou can deliver that – as he is already quite useful in the crucial attacking stats of dribbling and shooting.
This is how strong Bebou’s stats are with the Finisher style (via futbin)
If you equip Bebou with a Finisher style, he suddenly has shooting and dribbling stats in the 90s, alongside pace. This includes a 99 finishing and 99 dribbling score. He also has 4-star skill moves. With the chemistry style, Bebou suddenly becomes a top striker – and that without an upgrade.
He only has weaknesses in physicality and passing. Thus, he is more suited as a scorer in the center forward position.
Who should buy Bebou? Primarily, Bebou is interesting for Bundesliga players. He is especially worthwhile if you already have the top players in the league gathered and are looking for an option to further improve your team in detail. If you play a Bundesliga team in FUT, Bebou could be a really exciting alternative to secure.
Besides that, he could also be an interesting investment on the transfer market if Hoffenheim progresses in the Europa League. However, this depends on real football – and of course on the fluctuations of the transfer market. After all, this year has already seen sudden drops in value.
In Destiny 2, players have discovered a new loot cave in the Cosmodrome – very similar to the predecessor. However, the trip is worthwhile not only for nostalgic players. We explain who can currently benefit from this discovery.
What is the loot cave all about? In the early days of Destiny 1, Guardians found a cave in the Cosmodrome on Earth where one could scoop up quite a bit of loot in a relatively short time and with comparatively little effort. This was quickly dubbed the Loot Cave by the community.
From this cave, dozens of simple enemies continuously ran out – essentially in infinite waves. The Guardians mowed down one wave after another and collected the loot or the Engrams that accumulated there over time. Then they would head to the Tower to the Cryptarch, where they mostly received junk but occasionally also got a decent item.
At some point, this was patched and thus became legendary. Now, with Destiny 2 Beyond Light and Season 12, the Cosmodrome from part 1 returned, and players immediately found a new loot cave there.
Here you can take a look at the original:

Where can you find the new loot cave? The new loot cave is also located in the Cosmodrome on Earth, but in a different area – namely “The Rift”.
In this, you will find the new loot cave
This is how you get in
Here, you just need to wait and shoot
Here again is the target building
This is how you get there:
Select the southern (lower) landing zone “The Steppes”.
Once landed, do not run out into the vastness of the Cosmodrome right in front of you, but turn left and go into the destroyed building.
Follow the corridor through the area “Dock 13” to “The Rift”.
As soon as you see the area name on the left side of the screen and come outside, look to the right. There you will see the protrusion of a larger building.
Right in this protrusion is the new loot cave, but on the other side.
I’m there – what now? Now you can stand in front of the loot cave, keep a little distance, and start shooting.
One thing upfront: For players beyond power level 1,200 or for the endgame, this new loot cave is less suitable. Yes, you can work towards Primus Engrams there in a relaxed manner. However, you can neither farm them endlessly nor is it particularly faster than doing regular activities.
For nostalgic players: For nostalgic players, the new loot cave is definitely worth a look. Those who want to reminisce about standing in front of the original cave and shooting in wildly may find the new cave brings a smile to their face.
Especially if you haven’t yet reached the soft cap, or if you are playing with friends who have not yet arrived there, this is a cool way to share some of your nostalgic memories.
For loot quests: Additionally, the new loot cave is a good opportunity to quickly and effectively complete a large part of the Cosmodrome as well as weapons master bounties – provided there are not too many players there.
Up to power level 1,200: Rare or legendary Engrams often drop in the loot cave. And since nearly every new piece of equipment helps you on your way to power level 1,200, you can relatively comfortably advance your power level – for example, if you are still a bit low level for one or the other new mission from Destiny 2 Beyond Light.
A change to the Pre-Event of WoW: Shadowlands is well-received. The rare enemies are now much more common.
The Pre-Event for World of Warcraft: Shadowlands is in full swing and numerous players are farming the rare enemies in Icecrown. After all, they reward the players with a special event currency and occasionally unique loot. However, there was criticism about the long respawn time of the enemies – Blizzard has now addressed this criticism and accelerated everything.
What was the problem? The respawn of the rare enemies in Icecrown became a nuisance for many players. After all, exactly 20 minutes passed between the appearance of two rare enemies, leading to frustrating wait times. For some players, it seemed as if the event had simply become an “AFK simulator,” which resulted in a lot of frustration.
The 20 minutes were pure boredom for many players.
What has changed? Blizzard has now, in the second week of the Pre-Event, responded to this criticism. The respawn timer for the rare mobs has been reduced from 20 minutes to 10 minutes. You will now be notified every 10 minutes via an emote that a new rare mob has appeared in Icecrown.
If you’re more interested in WoW, you might find this appealing:
What are the implications? In plain terms, this means that all rare bosses in Icecrown now rotate at double speed and a cycle now lasts only 3 hours and 20 minutes instead of 6 hours and 40 minutes. Additionally, you farm the black plague stones at double speed, allowing event rewards to be obtained in roughly half the time.
Why is this important? Especially for twinks, this is worthwhile, who want solid equipment with item level 100 before the start of Shadowlands. But transmog collectors can also breathe easier. Those who wanted to collect all 4 sets now only need to invest half the time to gather enough tokens for the Argent Crusade.
In summary, this is a sensible change that brings a bit more pace to the whole pre-event and ensures that all players can get the gear they want much faster. This is also a massive advantage when farming the large 34-slot bag – as the number of chances per day doubles when Bronjahm appears twice as often.
What do you think of this adjustment?

In Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War you can play together in crossplay with PC, PS4, and Xbox One again. The next-gen consoles PS5 and Xbox Series X and S also enable crossplay. MeinMMO shows you how to do it.
What is crossplay? This allows you to play the new CoD Cold War with friends on any platform. As a PC player, you can play together with friends who are on Xbox or PlayStation.
Crossplay is available for almost all multiplayer modes and there are no restrictions except for the PlayStation-exclusive zombie mode “Firestorm”.
Everything about crossplay in CoD Cold War
How can you activate crossplay? Crossplay is usually already activated. However, you can also deactivate it in the settings or activate it again there. Here’s how:
Go to the gear icon in the main menu and open the settings – this is also possible in each individual mode
Click on the “Account & Network” field
In the “Activision account” section, you can activate or deactivate crossplay in the 2nd position
Crossplay applies to every mode by the way. If you deactivate crossplay, the player search may take longer, as only lobbies that actually only include players on your console or PC will be searched.
Click on “Social” in the upper right corner of the screen. You can do this in any mode
There you can choose the option “Add Activision friends”
Have your teammates give you their Activision ID. To find it, look at the bottom of the screen. With a button press, you can display “My Activision ID”
Then you can send the friend request, and your friend will receive this request in his CoD social menu
Once connected, you can join and invite each other
What about cross-gen? The new consoles PS5 and Xbox Series X and S also support crossplay. So you can play normally with friends on other consoles with these consoles.
Can I deactivate crossplay and still play with next-gen / last-gen? Yes, for example, if you turn off crossplay on a PS4, you can still play with your buddies on the PS5. Only PC and Xbox players are excluded from your matches.
What advantages does crossplay bring? With crossplay, you can benefit from some advantages. These include:
The player search is shorter because you are matched with players on all platforms
You can save your progress on one console with cross-save and then continue playing on another platform with that progress
How exactly does cross-save work? We explain this with the example of the PlayStation 4. You have already been playing Cold War diligently and have made some progress. Now you are one of the lucky ones who received the new console at the release of the PS5. You can then continue playing Cold War on the PS5 with your progress, even though you earned it on the PS4.
The Free2Play game Rise of the Archons received a huge update, which almost represents a fresh start.
What can you expect in the game? Rise of the Archons is a remake of the classic Legends of Mir, which started in its third version in 2004.

This is how Legends of Mir, from which Rise of the Archons originated, plays.
Who is Rise of the Archons for? The MMORPG has been around for several years. When Legends of Mir 3 was released, it was in 2004. Graphically, it resembles Ultima Online or Lineage 1. Therefore, you should not expect high-end graphics.
Furthermore, the gameplay is rather laid-back. Despite hack-and-slash battles, there is no stress involved. There is plenty to do and explore.
You should have a liking for retro games to enjoy Rise of the Archons.
Do you want to give Rise of the Archons a chance? Or is it too old for you?

According to a conference with investors, NCSoft plans to release three major MMORPGs in 2021: Aion 2, Blade & Soul 2 and Lineage Eternal (Project TL). But which of these could be interesting for you?
2021 could be an interesting year for MMORPG fans. At least if you’re interested in the MMORPG franchises Blade & Soul, Aion, and Lineage. Because NCSoft finally wants to release successors to these titles, as NC Soft explained to investors.
Project TL (formerly Lineage Eternal)
https://youtu.be/fItmbqVrvAI
This is what the MMORPG Project TL looks like.
What can you expect from the game? Project TL is planned for 2021, but there is no exact date yet. The game, which was formerly known as Lineage Eternal, aims to be a mix of hack ‘n slash and MMORPG – similar to what is the case with Lost Ark. You’ll play from an isometric view, but you’re not only expecting battles, but also many quests, NPCs, interaction with other players, and more.
The MMORPG takes place in the universe of the two MMORPGs Lineage and Lineage 2 and looks impressive in the first videos. However, little is known about the gameplay so far. It is expected to be released for PC. The developers are currently testing based on initial tests for Project TL whether it is competitive, though this was not explained further.
Who is the game suitable for? If Diablo 4 has too little MMORPG content for you, but you like the gameplay style of a hack ‘n slash, then Project TL might be interesting for you.
The battles are fast-paced and action-packed, and you also need to incorporate the environment into your strategies – for example, to topple stone pillars onto enemies. In addition, you can expect plenty of boss battles.
Aion 2
https://youtu.be/bFbY2zblvLM
AION 2 looks impressive for a mobile game.
What can you expect from the game? The release of the MMORPG is supposed to take place at a yet unspecified date next year. It is a mobile game that is referred to as a “milestone.” This means it is expected to look so good graphically that it could also be a PC MMORPG.
The story takes place around 900 years before the events of the first part, so Aion 2 is a prequel. Just like in Aion, the focus is on flying. However, the combat system is expected to differ significantly from that of the first part. PvP is important, and it is even possible for players from different servers to wage war against each other.
Who is the game suitable for? Aion 2 is obviously aimed at fans of the first part. Flying around and battles as well as PvP should be of interest to you. However, this time it will be played on mobile devices. This means if you’re a fan of Aion, you should be open to the new platform.
We will present you with more MMORPGs that are yet to be released on MeinMMO:
Blade & Soul 2 looks impressive from the trailer, even though it is a mobile MMORPG.
What can you expect from the game?Just like AION 2, Blade & Soul 2 is a mobile game. The release is planned for the first quarter of 2021. NCSoft calls the game a “masterpiece.” Initial videos have already shown that we can expect a visually impressive title – even though it is a mobile MMORPG.
The development studio aims to make the battles even more interesting than in the first part. This is to be achieved through an improved combo system and smarter enemies.
Who is the game suitable for? Blade & Soul 2 picks up where the predecessor left off and is aimed at everyone who wants to experience action-packed, spectacular battles in an MMORPG. It is also necessary to enjoy playing on a mobile device, as there are currently no plans for a PC version. You can basically expect a better version of the predecessor from Blade & Soul 2.

What’s included in the update: The new Title Update offers some changes, but mainly focuses on correcting gameplay and display errors. There are no comprehensive changes like in the last Title Update 4.
The key changes in Title Update 5 – Patch Notes
The patch notes: Title Update 5 includes changes for all areas and modes. Both gameplay and visual elements are being revised. In the following list, we summarize the most important changes.
You can find the official patch notes from EA Sports here (via FIFA Forums).
Gameplay – Changes
Various adjustments have been made to gameplay:
The distance the ball can travel after making contact with a defender’s foot or leg during a block animation has been increased.
The time during which “Team Pressing” (D-Pad tactic) can be active before a cooldown is required has been reduced from 30 seconds to 20 seconds.
The D-Pad tactic “Overload on Ball Side” consumes more stamina.
The tactics “Press After Errors,” “Press After Ball Loss,” and “Constant Pressure” are intended to be more effective.
Furthermore, the following errors were corrected:
Players sometimes took too long to shoot.
A collision between the keeper and a defender sometimes resulted in the goalkeeper being shoved into the goal, resulting in an own goal – this situation is now counted as a foul.
If a yellow-card worthy foul was played on advantage, the player could commit another yellow-card worthy foul and receive a direct red card for it.
The goalkeeper could leap too early and then execute another jump.
Sometimes skill moves could not be executed immediately after a player turned.
Ultimate Team – Changes
What’s new in Ultimate Team:
Club hymns and fan chants can now be listened to in the bidding window.
In negotiation scenes, two incorrect and identical manager character models were used.
Otherwise, mainly display errors that presented incorrect texts and information have been fixed.
Pro Clubs – Changes
What’s new in Pro Clubs:
Group, team, and camera celebrations can now be performed.
The camera now zooms in on the goalscorer during goal celebrations.
These errors have been fixed:
Your own tactics are now saved correctly.
Further changes in Title Update 5
What else has changed? The list of changes and fixes is long and includes many smaller visual improvements and bugs that occurred rarely.
However, a major new addition is the 25 new game faces that EA has announced. Which ones they are is not yet known. Perhaps finally an updated Ancelotti?
In addition, EA has revised the ping display. The ping is now shown before a match:
A new system update has just been released for the PlayStation 5, which most PlayStation players in Germany and Europe will likely need to download as a day-one patch. What does the firmware update bring?
Although players in Germany and other European countries have to wait a little longer for the official launch of the PS5 on November 19, Sony’s new next-gen console is already available in the USA and some other countries.
Those who already own a PlayStation 5 had to download and install a day-one patch at launch. Now another update has apparently been added.
What is the new update about? MeinMMO has also received a PS5 from Sony for testing purposes in advance. I, Sven Galitzki, shooter expert from MeinMMO, have already tried Destiny 2 on the PlayStation 5 and also had to download the 868 MB day-one patch.
However, today another firmware update has been released – with version 20.02-02.25.00. It is also 868 MB in size and is essentially the first system software update since the first patch at launch.
It is not known whether German players have to download both patches or a cumulative update at launch.
What does the new system update bring for the PS5? The description is very clear. The new firmware update improves the system performance of the still young PlayStation 5, according to Sony.

Now is the last chance to spend Titan Residuum in World of Warcraft. You should definitely do this to make a good amount of gold.
What is Titan Residuum? Titan Residuum is a currency that players could earn during Battle for Azeroth. It was obtained from the weekly “Mythic+” chest and from disassembling Azerite gear. Players could then use the Residuum to buy equipment of their choice. This way, the perfect Azerite gear could be farmed specifically.
What happens to the Residuum? With the launch of Shadowlands, the currency will automatically be converted to gold, but at a pretty modest rate. For every Titan Residuum, you will receive exactly 1 Silver. So, if you have accumulated 20,000 Titan Residuum, you will receive a letter with 200 gold. A pretty bad deal.
In this example, it would be the 5th place with the merchant.
What should you do instead? Instead of waiting for the launch of Shadowlands, you should spend your Titan Residuum now. Buy the cheapest chest for 175 Residuum from the Azerite vendor in Boralus (Alliance) or Dazar’alor (Horde). This can be sold for about 70-80 gold pieces.
Instead of 1 gold and 75 silver, you get a whopping 70 to 80 gold.
If you have 20,000 Residuum, that totals almost 8,500 gold pieces – compared to the 200 gold you would receive through the automatic conversion.
Using a Macro makes it even easier: Many, like the YouTuber Hazelnutty, also use a macro to simplify the purchase of Azerite gear. The macro buys one of the Azerite items and uses it immediately to create a piece of armor. This saves time.

Make sure before using that the chest piece is indeed in position 3 with the vendor for you. If the vendor offers you other items – like essences – you need to adjust the number, for example to 5.
If you’re interested in more about WoW, you might also find this appealing:
Anyone who still has Residuum lying around should promptly spend it. Because with the launch of Shadowlands, you might miss out on several thousand gold pieces.
How much gold have you made from selling Residuum items?

In Pokémon GO the limited research for the Home event is running. We show you all the tasks and rewards. This includes encounters with Pokémon, Poké Balls, and Mega Energies.
What kind of research is this? Today, on November 17, 2020, the Home event in Pokémon GO started. There are new spawns, raid bosses, field research, and also limited research for you.
In this overview, we show you all the tasks and rewards that await you in the limited research. Also, the sought-after Kaumalat.
You can find the research by clicking on the binoculars in the lower right corner of the Pokémon GO game screen. The tasks will be displayed in the “Today” overview.

The Xbox Series X is currently very hard to get. And according to Microsoft’s Phil Spencer, that won’t change in the near future.
What is the situation around the Xbox Series X/S? Microsoft’s new consoles were released on November 10. The Xbox Series X sold out within minutes, while the Series S remained available for a bit longer. However, it has now become difficult to even find the “smaller” version.
Right now, you can basically only order the Xbox Series X through Ebay – and at inflated prices.
Microsoft’s Phil Spencer responded as follows: “We have more demand than supply, and I apologize to the people for that.” He mentioned that the consoles have been built and shipped as quickly as possible for the last two months. However, due to the high demand for the consoles, they sell out immediately at retailers. He is very sorry about that.
According to Spencer, it has simply become very difficult to bring products to market during the Christmas season due to COVID-19. This applies not only to consoles, but also to new games.
The Xbox Series X and S remain scarce for now.
It will take time before the new Xbox consoles are available for everyone
When will consoles be available for purchase again? Microsoft’s Chief Financial Officer Tim Stuart explained that this situation is unlikely to change until April 2021. It will remain difficult to obtain one of the new, quiet Xbox consoles.
I think we will continue to see supply constraints even after the holidays, that is, Microsoft’s third quarter, or the first calendar quarter.
Tim Stuart, CFO Microsoft
Stuart expects that there will be significantly more consoles available between May and June 2021, and players will then be able to purchase them regularly.
And when we reach the fourth (Microsoft) quarter, our entire supply chain will be running full steam and heading towards a kind of pre-summer month. And there, I expect to see the supply meet the demand.
Tim Stuart, CFO Microsoft
What does that mean concretely? According to Microsoft, it will remain difficult to get an Xbox Series X/S until May 2021. However, by early summer, everyone should be able to purchase one of the consoles.
This also means that those who have not yet been able to obtain an Xbox Series X/S will have to remain patient or hope for luck, perhaps being able to buy one of the new consoles earlier than expected.
Did you have luck and manage to buy an Xbox Series X/S? Or are you still waiting for consoles to be available again?
In Pokémon GO the big Home Event has started. It brings new quests, raid bosses, and shinies to the game. We provide you with an overview of all the new features.
How long does the Home Event last? It started this morning, on November 17, and runs until November 23 at 10:00 PM.
Field Research, Shinies, and Spawns for the Home Event
These quests are new: There are a total of 4 new field researches for the event. We show you the rewards for them:
Catch 2 different species of Pokémon
Reward: Encounter with a male or female Nidoran (both can be Shiny)
Give your buddy 3 snacks
Reward: Encounter with a Shiny Slowpoke
Win 2 raids
Reward: Encounter with a Shiny Dratini
Catch 30 Pokémon
Reward: 1500 Stardust
The task regarding the two forms of Nidoran is worthwhile. It can be completed quickly and rewards you with a potential Shiny. The quest for Slowpoke should also be collected, as it gives you the chance to get the brand new Shiny Slowpoke. Here you can ideally collect 3 quests at once and then complete them all at once by feeding.
These spawns are available for the event: Alolan Sandshrew appears in the wild. This Pokémon is not otherwise catchable in the wild and can also appear as Shiny. If you don’t have a Shiny yet, you should take the chance.
Additionally, there are numerous exciting spawns including Alolan Diglett, Lileep, Anorith, Magnemite, Slowpoke, and Zubat. They can all be Shiny and appear rarely outside of events.
What new Shinies are there? Slowpoke was introduced as the only new Shiny and is available now. However, it is only slightly lighter than the normal Slowpoke. Only upon evolving into Lickilicky does the difference become noticeable:
Lickilicky, the other evolution of Slowpoke looks similar to Lickitung.
In addition to Slowpoke, you can now also catch Shiny Meltan again. The Shiny form has been missing for over a year and is now available again during the event period.
This is how you get Shiny Meltan: The Shiny is only available from the Mystery Box you receive when you trade a Pokémon between Pokémon GO and Let’s GO Pikachu/Eevee. Alternatively, you can also obtain the Mystery Box by transferring a Pokémon to Pokémon Home.
You can find a detailed guide to the Mystery Box here:
Mega Charizard X* Mega Charizard Y* Mega Blastoise* Mega Pidgeot* Mega Houndoom* Mega Gengar*
Level 5 Raid (black egg)
Cobalion* Terrakion* Virizion*
So you have several Shinies available in raids that you can encounter. Furthermore, you have 3 new legendary bosses with Terrakion, Virizion, and Cobalion. We show you here the counters and usefulness of the new Legendary Pokémon:
In Fortnite: Battle Royale there are tons of skins and outfits. They are often pretty cool. MeinMMO author Jürgen Horn hasn’t played Fortnite in a long time, but since he knows what’s currently in the shop due to a silly coincidence, he’s struggling with throwing a bunch of money on a game he doesn’t even play!
What’s the deal with Jürgen and the skins? Fortnite never really appealed to me due to its gameplay mechanics. I didn’t appreciate the building aspects in either the PvE or Battle Royale versions. However, I love the comic-style graphics reminiscent of Pixar movies.
That’s why I eagerly awaited the new skins in the shop every week, and a new Battle Pass was always a special highlight for me. To snag the coolest skins, I slogged through a game that I didn’t really enjoy.
If Fortnite didn’t have building, I’d like it much more.
I actually don’t like Fortnite: Since I deeply hate building, I’ve hardly made any significant progress. A few good kills at the start of the game was usually the best I could hope for. My only win in Fortnite happened just because I somehow didn’t encounter any enemies, and my last opponent perished due to stupidity and loot greed in the storm.
Nonetheless, I played Fortnite almost daily until my parental leave to showcase my latest skins. The time before the match, where the large crowd showcased the coolest emotes in an epic dance battle, admiring or laughing at each other, that was the true essence of the game for me!
Fortnite is first a dance-off before every round.
The temporary end: This went on until September 2019. Then my parental leave began, and I hardly had any time to play for several months. Since my gaming time was incredibly tight, and I didn’t need to play more games for work, I increasingly played single-player games that I could pause at any time or games with very short rounds. So no Battle Royale games that can last 30 minutes or more.
That also did good for my wallet, as I certainly spent way too much money on skins. But then the temptation returned…
The skin list ruins my good intentions
How Jürgen nearly relapsed: Except for a small play session at the start of Season 4, Chapter 2, I had stayed away from Fortnite for over a year. But then, suddenly, boss Schuhmann appeared and said, “Hey, the list of skins, you haven’t updated that in ages, get on it!” And indeed, the list was really outdated, and I spent several hours gathering and categorizing all the recent skins.
And what I saw there made me cheer with joy multiple times, so much so that my wife in the other room was wondering what was happening.
Here’s everything: Because the skins were partially really cool. There were tons of new Marvel skins, Star Wars skins, skins from known streamers, and just original, stylish, and bizarre outfits like Fishstick as a killer commando, a hot dog, zombie football skins, a nasty fox, Baba Yaga, or a Japanese Oni demon.
The selection was just huge, and had I been active in the last months, I surely would have spent hundreds of euros. And even now, while writing these lines and looking at the skins, I am itching to reinstall the game and go shopping.
An Oni demon, that would be something!
Who knows what cool skins are currently available in the shop? It’s almost Christmas, and surely something cool and original will hit the market!
That’s why I probably won’t buy anything: But no, that’s it! I really don’t feel like playing Fortnite again, and it’s pointless to have the skins and not use them because I’m not interested in the game. Reluctantly, I close the skin list again and keep my hands off the Fortnite installer. That was a close call.
And luckily I have a kind of substitute drug: Apex Legends also has cool skins, is much more fun for me than Fortnite, and doesn’t release skins at such rapid intervals. That saves my wallet and still satisfies my joy for a virtual Battle Royale fashion show! And sometimes I even win in Apex Legends, because you don’t build there, but shoot more!

On November 10th, the new generation of Xbox consoles was released. MeinMMO editor Alexander Leitsch now has an Xbox Series S at home. He made his first attempts with it over the weekend and failed miserably.
What is my stance on consoles? The Xbox Series S is my first console since the PlayStation 2. I got it as a gift from my parents in 2001 and I was thrilled back then. However, over the years, it became clear where my true passion in gaming lies: in MMORPGs.
For a long time, online role-playing games were played almost exclusively on the PC. Black Desert was only released for consoles in 2019 – 3 years after the PC release. So for years, the PC was either completely overhauled or gradually upgraded.
On one hand, I can finally get out of my home office where I work and play at the same time.
On the other hand, since my last move, I have a brand new couch – and that needs to be used too!
These are the evil power devices that are causing me so much trouble!
What happened? Last weekend, I finally got to use the Xbox Series S extensively. I downloaded FIFA and ESO and was convinced that I, just like on the PC, would dominate the games.
But my first rounds with the matching controller were primarily one thing: pathetic!
About the Author: Alexander Leitsch is 27 years old and mainly focuses on MMORPGs like Guild Wars 2, Black Desert, ArcheAge, and ESO at MeinMMO. He also loves to play TFT and regularly creates tier lists for it. However, consoles have never been his thing.
Lost in FIFA 20, even though I’m decent on PC
How did the first rounds go? Aside from a few gaming conventions, I last held a controller in 2005. I can say that precisely because my PS2 fell from its hanging fixture and shattered on the floor back then.
Since then, I’ve been playing almost exclusively on PC or smartphone. But that didn’t stop me from going full throttle right away. I started a round of FIFA 20, which is also included for free in the Game Pass. On PC, I play FIFA, probably as the only person in the world, with a keyboard!
However, I can usually win against the AI on World Class difficulty easily and on Legendary with some effort. So what could possibly go wrong on the console? I set the difficulty to World Class and got started. My first game ended in a loss of 1:3 – against an AI….
Shortly after, I played a casual kickoff match against a colleague. I don’t even want to describe how miserably I lost, but it was a double-digit score!
I have never been so frustrated as after my first FIFA match against a good colleague.
What’s the problem? I am actually having incredible difficulty controlling a controller. At first, I struggled to differentiate between X and Y. The shoulder buttons, which are commonly set for player switching and sprinting, did not fit my playstyle at all.
I quickly found myself wishing for my gaming keyboard back, which I had become accustomed to over the past 15 years.
Why am I apologizing here? For years, I have actually only been playing multiplayer games. My focus is mainly on games where you play together, such as MMORPGs or team-based PvP games like LoL or Conqueror’s Blade.
I have also focused on multiplayer games with the Xbox Series S. And of course, I will be playing it extensively in the coming weeks.
Therefore, I already feel sorry if you accidentally end up in my group. Because with the controller, I am an absolute noob and will surely not make your gaming experience more enjoyable. You might find me especially in ESO, Black Desert, or maybe even in a shooter.
Dungeons are best tackled in a group in ESO. Whether I can be of help is questionable.
How this turns out is written in the stars. Perhaps I will soon be so frustrated that I will just connect a mouse and a keyboard to the console!
How about you? Are you more comfortable with the controller or the keyboard? Let us know in the comments!
In the pre-event to Shadowlands, there are currently several rare mobs and bosses you can find in World of Warcraft. They have cool loot, such as the coveted Cursed Memorabilia. MeinMMO will tell you where you can find the bosses.
Original – What are these bosses? In Icecrown, rare enemies spawn regularly as preparation for the new expansion Shadowlands, which you must defeat as a group. These are bosses from various instances in Wrath of the Lich King (WotLK) that veterans will surely remember.
In line with the zombie plague that returns from the WotLK pre-event, these bosses also bring nostalgia. They reward you with the same loot they used to have back then, only adjusted for the new level 50.
Additionally, they offer some special loot items that you can only obtain during the event. They can be found all over Icecrown.
Locations and Coordinates of the Rare Mobs
Here you can find the bosses: The rare mobs are scattered all over Icecrown, but they always occupy the same positions. You can find a total of 20 of them at the following coordinates:
Queen Lana’thel: 49.7 / 32.7
Professor Putricide: Coordinates: 57.1 / 30.3
Lady Deathwhisper: 51.1 / 78.5
Skadi the Ruthless: 57.5 / 56.1
Ingvar the Plunderer: 52.4 / 52.6
Prince Keleseth: 54.0 / 44.7
The Black Knight: 64.6 / 22.1
Bronjahm: 70.7 / 38.4
Scourgelord Tyrannus: 47.2 / 66.1
Forgemaster Garfrost: 58.6 / 72.5
Marwyn: 58.6 / 72.5
Falric: 50.2 / 87.9
The Prophet Tharon’ja: 50.2 / 87.9
Novos the Summoner: 77.8 / 66.1
Trollgrind: 58.3 / 39.4
Krik’thir the Gatekeeper: 67.5 / 58.0
Prince Taldram: 29.6 / 62.2
Elder Nadox: 44.2 / 49.1
North the Plague Lord: 31.6 / 70.5
Patchwerk: 36.5 / 67.4 – The entrance to the cave is located at 34.4 / 68.5
All the bosses can also be seen here on the handy map. Image source: Vanion.
How do I see the coordinates? The relevant coordinates are not displayed in the game itself. You need an addon for that. In our guide on MeinMMO, we present three addons that can display coordinates for you. If you’re only interested in determining the location, we recommend MapCoords, which you can find here on Curse.
When do the bosses spawn? The bosses appear in the above order and always at intervals of exactly ten minutes. Once a boss has appeared, it is not attackable for three minutes but already visible on the map.
After that, you can defeat it with a group. Due to the timing, the interval between spawns of the same boss is always 3 hours and 20 minutes. So if you’re after a specific boss, you need to be patient.
When a boss is active, you will also see it as a purple skull on the world map:
This is what the bosses look like when they are active.
Cursed Memorabilia and Other Special Loot
What drops from the bosses: Each of the bosses drops armor and weapons they already had during WotLK. However, the new item level is 110, which is just below the level of loot from the heroic version of the final raid in Battle for Azeroth, Ny’alotha.
Some of the bosses also have special items with them, and all bosses share a loot pool with equipment and items they can have:
Damaged Sword Hilt – Starts the quest line for the sword or mace Quel’Delar
What’s special about the Cursed Memorabilia? The memorabilia were introduced with the pre-event to WotLK. They have no real use and cannot be equipped.
However, anyone who has such a memorabilia in their pocket has a ghostly visage follow them around all the time. This is a purely cosmetic effect, which is quite popular among players.
This item is popular for this effect.
Since the drop rate of the memorabilia was extremely low earlier and they have not been obtainable since, they reached high prices in the auction house. However, the chance with the bosses now is also only a few percent.
