A German player has made an offer in the official World of Warcraft forums to gift another player a year-long subscription to WoW. The potential winner must be “raid-ready” within eleven days of the release of WoW Classic.
What is this challenge? The challenge was made by forum user Zaep. He wants to pay for a whole year of subscription for the first player who becomes “raid-ready” within eleven days after the release of WoW Classic. This corresponds to a value of at least €131.88 in the official store. (twice 180 days at €65.94 each)
Zaep offers this challenge because another guild had set this as a goal. (via Gamestar)
However, the corresponding thread has already been edited and the information has disappeared. Zaep doubted whether anyone would succeed and thus started his own thread.
How can I participate? To participate, you must add the player Zaep as a friend on your friends list at least 24 hours before the release of Classic. His BattleTag is provided in the corresponding forum post.
The first player to meet the requirements will then be sponsored the yearly subscription by him. According to the list that Zaep keeps, only 6 people are currently participating in the challenge. (as of May 9 at 18:40)
Whoever completes the challenge is likely to see Ragnaros shortly thereafter.
What do I have to do? The only requirement to win is that you can theoretically defeat the first raids in WoW Classic within these eleven days – in this case, Onyxia’s Lair. Zaep has listed what you must do:
Reach level 60
Play on the EU-West server
Own the key to Onyxia’s Lair (must be displayed as “not tradable” in the trade window)
80% of the gear must be “Best-in-Slot”
Zaep’s Battle.net account must be added 24 hours prior to Classic release
The first player to meet all these requirements will receive the subscription.
Learning to ride and “normal mounts” requires a lot of gold and grind
As a result, leveling alone takes a long time. Zaep himself stated that he took four weeks to be able to raid. The user Hunterchar noted that one of the requirements is practically impossible.
To obtain the key to Onyxia’s Lair, the raid “Upper Blackrock Spire” must be completed. For this, you need nine other players.
Accessing Onyxia’s Lair poses a significant hurdle.
Additionally, you have to complete “Lower Blackrock Spire” multiple times, and all other players must leave you specific loot so that you can even gain access to the upper spire.
Alternatively, you would need to find someone who already owns the key to the dungeon. There are justified doubts about whether this is even feasible.
Apex Legends was trolled by the Twitter account of Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) due to its rare updates. However, neither the fans nor the developers wanted to accept the mockery from the fast-food chain and trolled back.
What did KFC do?
The fast-food chain Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) has its own Twitter channel
called “KFC Gaming”, which is all about games. It shares memes and
funny information about games.
On May 13, 2019, KFC Gaming posted a meme that made fun of Apex Legends. It features a sausage-shaped figure poking the Apex logo with a stick and saying “Come on, do something…”

The implied meaning is that Apex Legends is dead and that attempts to revive it by poking it are in vain. This likely stems from the fact that Apex Legends only receives updates rarely, while the competition in the form of Fortnite rolls out a new update every week.
How is the community reacting?
Through the jokes about the state of the game and that it should “do something”, KFC may be suggesting that Respawn is not working quickly and thoroughly enough to keep the game attractive.

However, this did not sit well with the fans. Thus, under the tweet from KFC, the notorious “Silence, Brand” meme quickly emerged. This means that a company or brand has gone too far and should just “shut up”.
How do the developers react? In the meantime, the developers have also commented on KFC’s remark. Apex developer Rayme Wilson made the following pointed comment on Twitter:
“Dear Brand. We have tons of stuff planned, but it takes a while. We can’t ‘hyper-fry’, ‘flash-flambé’, or ‘crispy-inject’ or whatever you do with your tasty bird meat. This gameplay is handcrafted, with old-world methods. In the meantime, eat some chicken, we’ll be done soon!”
Wilson’s tweet was well received by fans. They praised her for the remark and showed understanding for the developers’ situation:
“It’s really bad that so many people expect Respawn to push the workforce through hell to create weekly updates just because Epic Games does it…”
“It’s pretty awful for a chicken place to throw out such comments.”
Soon there should be new information about upcoming content in Apex Legends:
There are news regarding portal submissions in Ingress! This also affects Pokémon GO. We’ll tell you what to expect.
What’s new in Ingress: In this game by Pokémon GO developer Niantic, there is now a globally improved way of portal submissions. This works just like in Pokémon GO and makes it easier for players to evaluate the portals.
What does this mean for Pokémon GO? Portals in Ingress will in most cases become gyms and PokéStops in Pokémon GO. The two games rely on the same data.
If submitting in Ingress becomes significantly easier, we could also expect more PokéStops and gyms in the future.
Will there be more gyms and PokéStops now?
This has been made easier for Ingress players: So far, Ingress players had submitted and evaluated portals through a slightly more complicated system.
Ingress agents can now submit portals in a new way. Source: Reddit
Now there is, just like in Pokémon GO, a system where you can insert 2 images and a text. This will then go as a submission and can be confirmed by other players.
What prerequisites must players have? Players must be at level 10 in Ingress. This is not the maximum level, but still one of the highest levels there.
This could happen in Pokémon GO now: Because submissions are now made significantly easier, it is possible to submit and confirm portals faster. They will then become gyms and PokéStops in Pokémon GO.
This does not mean that you will immediately get a pile of new stops in your city; after all, someone still has to play Ingress and submit the portals there. However, the confirmation can now happen much faster.
Now the tests are significantly expanding in Ingress. If everything goes well there too, this feature could also be extended to Pokémon GO and eventually released worldwide.
Niantic is also taking action against cheaters in Ingress. This could also happen in Pokémon GO soon:
Starting soon, the first raid, Operation Dark Hours, will begin in The Division 2. We have summarized everything you need to know about the launch of this new activity.
What is Operation: Dark Hours? The first raid in The Division 2 is a new PvE endgame activity for groups of eight players.
This is said to be the biggest challenge in the game so far, where teamwork and the skills of the agents will be put to the test.
Operation: Dark Hours – What You Should Know About the First Raid
What is it about? The Black Tusk have taken over the abandoned airport of Washington D.C. upon their arrival in the city. A group of agents is supposed to clean and reclaim the airport. Players will encounter exotic bosses, new mechanics, and technologies, and will apparently also need to solve puzzles.
Requirements for the raid: The raid is part of the endgame. Consequently, not every agent can jump into this top-tier activity – even if it comes as a free update for all players.
Your character should meet the following requirements:
Reached Level 30
World Tier 5 unlocked
A gear score of at least 490
You don’t need a full team of eight players to start the raid. However, the difficulty will not scale if fewer than eight agents are present. It is always designed for eight players.
How to start the raid: After the raid’s release, talk to the helicopter pilot at the heli-pad by the White House. This will unlock a new tab in the game’s social menu, where you can then assemble your raid team. The one who creates the group is the raid leader. Only they can start the raid.
To make the trip to the raid worthwhile, The Division 2 has some exclusive rewards for you there. Note: The gear sets and the weapon can only drop once per week. After your first successful run, you will have to wait until the reset before you get the next chance at these items.
Exclusive raid gear:
Three new gear sets have already been found on the test servers (PTS). However, there was no sign of them in the patch notes for Title Update 3. They are now coming into play with the raid and will be available exclusively there.
Further exclusive rewards: There are also additional rewards linked to the raid.
If you complete the raid, you will receive a special clan icon and a raid trophy.
If you finish the raid in the first week, you will receive an exclusive arm patch.
The race for World First – How to become immortal: Anyone who manages to complete the first raid of The Division 2 as the first team in the world will be immortalized in a special way in-game.
A picture of this team will then be hung in the White House for all players to see – along with clan and agent names.
In line with the raid – The “Dark Hours” apparel event: With the raid, a new event will also start where you can earn new cosmetic rewards like during the first apparel event – including:
5 outfits and one uniform
2 masks
4 emotes
and 8 weapon skins
What do you think of the rewards? Is there anything you absolutely want?
On May 14, the latest Guild Wars 2 story episode was released. With it came the new area Dragonfall to the game. And this area has really captivated the players: Some say Dragonfall is one of the best maps in Guild Wars 2 of all time.
What makes Dragonfall special? The new map, which came to Guild Wars 2 with the patch “Eternal War“, is currently receiving a lot of praise. Three special features are highlighted:
the structure of the events
the use of mastery
the beautiful and diverse aesthetics
The combination of these three properties is causing quite a hype on Reddit. Players are overflowing with praise.
Reddit user One-Dos-San-Chaar refers to Dragonfall as one of the best-designed maps in Guild Wars 2.

A mix of Silverwastes and Dragon’s Resistance
What is special about the events in Dragonfall? Due to their event structure, Silverwastes and Dragon’s Resistance are among the most popular maps of the MMORPG, although their setup is very different.
User MartRane describes Dragonfall as a mix of these two maps. There are outposts where many small events need to be completed, similar to Silverwastes.
At the end of the event chain, players work together from different positions to fight an elder dragon, comparable to Dragon’s Resistance.

Are there good rewards on the map? Similar to Silverwastes, players receive keys for completing events. With these, they can open chests and obtain loot after completing the event chain. Inside, you’ll find rare materials, champion bags, and more.
Additionally, by defeating all the champions of the events, players earn the chest armor of the new Mist Shard set.
The new Mist Shard armor
All masteries combined on one map
Since Heart of Thorns and Living World season 3, there are many different masteries like Gliding, using mushrooms, or the Heart of Oak essences. However, these masteries were usually only used in the respective episode.
But this is the case in Dragonfall: The latest Guild Wars 2 area, on the other hand, makes use of almost all the available masteries in the game. And in many places, their use is even worthwhile.
This is because the map is divided into three separate zones. In the jungle section of the map, mushrooms and Heart of Oak essences are worthwhile as the map is vertically structured.
Due to its size, ley lines and thermal tubes can be used effectively as well. Combined with the mounts and gliding, which can be used everywhere anyway, nearly every mastery in the game is utilized.
Players also appreciate this, as the post by sparcoevo proves. His praise for ArenaNet for bringing back the masteries is currently the Reddit thread with the second most upvotes.
The Burning Forest – Another part of Dragonfall
New mount and the next legendary weapon
What’s included in the new patch: In addition to the map, you can look forward to further innovations with the “Eternal War” patch. One highlight is the new legendary greatsword Exordium, which is presented to you by the fansite Guildnews in a video.

With a huge update, the online mode of Red Dead Redemption 2 finally takes off after several months in beta. Players are excited about the new content they can expect now and in the future.
What’s new in Red Dead Online? On Tuesday, May 14th, the beta of Red Dead Online came to an end. This is the online mode of Red Dead Redemption 2, which entered beta testing on November 27, 2018.
What has changed in the beta of Red Dead Online? Since the start of the testing phase, many new game modes have been integrated. So anyone who just checked it out at the start and played for a few hours will now notice significant changes in the online world.
Problematic in the beta were mainly aggressive players who took away the fun from more peaceful players. Rockstar took strong action against this. Those who were put off by other players might find their fun again in the online mode.
Moreover, many players felt there was too little PvE content. However, Red Dead Online has addressed this and seemingly gotten it under control.
The following activities await you now in the online world:
An offensive and defensive play style
Customizing skills and attributes
Forming squads or joining others
Missions, also for co-op players
Playing poker
Fighting against enemy gangs
Hunting
Fishing
Squad challenges with mini-games like fishing competitions
Treasure hunts
Daily challenges with cash rewards
Many new weapons unlocked through regular updates
How to deal with aggressive players
Here’s the problem: At the beginning of the beta, aggressive players were a problem in Red Dead Online. Those who simply wanted to enjoy the beautiful world peacefully were at risk of being killed repeatedly by griefers. This took away the fun for many players. Rockstar introduced a hostility system to address this.
This is the reaction: The hostility system analyzes the behavior of players. If they act dishonorably, the system imposes penalties.
Based on the player markings on the map, you can see how hostile another player is. Dark blue indicates the lowest level, posing no threat. A bright red indicates that the player is particularly aggressive. The more hostile a player is, the larger the radius within which they can be seen by other players.
Hostility increases when you tie up, lasso, or kill players
Killing a player who is in defensive mode incurs an additional penalty
Hostility decreases if you refrain from hostile actions for a long time
Your play styles – Offensive and Defensive
Why are there play styles? Fans have been demanding an option to remain passive in the online world of Red Dead Redemption 2 for a long time. They wanted something like the passive mode from GTA Online. Now there’s something similar for Red Dead Online.
Offensive play style: This is what you have known since the start of the beta. You play as in a traditional free-roam game, without special protection against opponents and other players.
Defensive play style: If players choose this play style, they will be marked by a shield icon. This indicates that you are playing as a peaceful player.
The mode has the advantage of providing protection for you. You cannot be lassoed or tied up by opposing players. Automatic targeting does not work on opponents in defensive mode.
However, they cannot use the feature themselves. They can manually aim and be targeted by other players through manual aiming, but they cannot deal or receive critical hits.
This defensive play style is especially suitable for players who just want to explore the world, hunt, fish, ride, or go treasure hunting.
New content coming soon – RPG System
In the near future, Rockstar Games has planned further content that aims to advance the online mode. This will take place with a role system.
You will then choose roles like trader, bounty hunter, or collector. Various activities will then be associated with these roles, which will further define your online character. We have summarized the upcoming changes for you here.
Players who haven’t checked in for months: If you haven’t set foot in the online world of Red Dead Redemption 2 for a while, you should do so again. There are many new activities aimed at PvP and PvE players. In game modes on various themes like battle royale or races, you compete against other players.
If you prefer a quieter experience, you can participate in fishing competitions or complete PvE missions.
Players who were active until recently: For you, the update on May 14th unlocked many important things. It also focused on balance. The reactions to the patch are particularly positive, which could be a reason for you to check back into the game.
What players say about the update
In the community on Reddit, the update is well received.
“This looks promising. Working as a bounty hunter, collector, or trader in the future will be very interesting. And finally, poker is in the game,” writes general_kenobi99
“This looks like a really good update, everything seems fantastic,” writes Bfortmmforn. He only complains that weapons are drawn faster now
“I just read poker and immediately started the game after 3 months,” says Sanguins
Furthermore, a balance change regarding headshots has been praised. The aim assist still targets the center of opponents’ bodies. However, it is no longer possible to just pull the right stick up briefly to land a headshot. Hitting heads is now more challenging.
User russiansnipa comments that this was exactly the reason for griefing in Red Dead Online and GTA Online. There was too little challenge in landing a headshot, which is why few killers hesitated.
“I’m honestly so happy that the RDO team really listens to our feedback. Many joked about the “beta” tag. But to be honest, it feels like the mode has significantly improved since launch.”
How do you like the changes in Red Dead Online? Are you checking back in now?
This player keeps a fun diary for Red Dead Online:
eSports has many facets and in the past weeks we have discovered many of them ourselves here at MeinMMO. But we want to know how it is with you. What would be the best for you: Are you in front of or on stage or even behind the scenes?
What is eSports about? In the past weeks, we have dealt intensively with eSports as part of the Charcoal Cup. We even invited and questioned experts from the University of Cologne in our stream at MAX.
In doing so, we also addressed the question of what eSports actually is and what makes an eSports athlete. eSports is its own economic sector, like traditional sports, and it follows similar structures.
Only the best players become professionals, and they have to train hard, find a team or coach, and ultimately achieve a breakthrough to be successful. And even then, eSports demands a lot from them, as they must also remain the best.
We have considered giving you the opportunity to test how strongly you are anchored in eSports and whether a career in this industry would even appeal to you.
The assessments you receive at the end, however, do not provide a final result. We only offer you a small nudge to possibly discover or fully realize your potential.
Please note that your choice in each round is final. If you click on an answer, it is logged, and you must restart the quiz at the end if you want to select a different answer. Have fun!
Dieses Quiz ist geschlossen.
What is your result? Do you agree or would you have expected something different?

Project C is a new sandbox MMO created by former developers from Rockstar Games, Valve, and Ubisoft. The aim is to create an open world like we have never seen in online games before.
What is Project C? It is a sandbox MMO where players determine how the world evolves.
You are exploring the vast open world of Corvus with many other players
The world is also populated by NPCs. AI is used to manage their behavior, as well as that of wildlife.
There are no classes
The world constantly changes, even when you are not online
Your actions are intended to affect the development of the game world – the developers call this the “butterfly effect”
The game uses Unreal Engine 4
A world that truly feels alive
What is Project C not? It is not supposed to be a typical survival MMO. While there are dangers that you must overcome and you build structures and craft items, all of this should feel rewarding.
The developers want to avoid making you feel forced to do things that are not enjoyable. There is no repetitive crafting of items that have little utility.
What makes the game special? The world that dynamically changes through the actions of players, as well as AI and the underlying SpatialOS technology, is the highlight of the MMO.
Players should find themselves in a vibrant world that simply feels “more real” than the static worlds of many other online games.
Do you want to join? Then speak with the developers
Who is developing the MMO? The game comes from Darewise Entertainment. The studio was founded in 2018 in Paris and consists of former employees from Ubisoft, Valve, and Rockstar Games.
When will the game launch? There is currently no release date. The game is still in a very early alpha phase.
Can you already participate? In the coming weeks, several test phases are expected to start, for which you can apply. You need to fill out a survey on the website and if you are selected, the developers will call you to provide information about the tests.
What do the tests bring? Darewise Entertainment wants to gather player feedback as early as possible, so that Project C can be developed together with the community.
A small hotfix improves the artifact power system in World of Warcraft. However, only part of the problem is being addressed.
A hotfix in World of Warcraft has fixed a problem with bonus rolls and artifact power by now providing better rewards. However, players are not satisfied, as they want further improvements.
What is the problem? Artifact power has become useless for more and more players. Once the Heart of Azeroth reaches level 50, artifact power no longer provides any benefit. This means that every quest, and especially many emissary quests, no longer yield any advantage. Even “failed bonus rolls” for weekly coins became artifact power and thus useless.
What Blizzard has changed: With a hotfix, Blizzard has at least adjusted the reward for failed bonus rolls. Those who have their Heart of Azeroth already at level 50 and use a “bonus roll” and fail, will no longer receive 750 artifact power, but 2,000 gold coins. This way, the roll is at least not completely wasted, and players can look forward to a solid amount of gold and at least recover the cost of the roll.

Fans demand more: However, for players, this is not enough. After all, there are still numerous other contents in WoW that are predominantly rewarded with artifact power. Especially world quests and the associated emissary quests (as well as the Paragon chests) often offer artifact power as a reward. Many players are now completely ignoring these contents. Previously, they were an important part of daily playtime.
What do players wish for? Players have many suggestions. Some wish that artifact power from quests should simply be converted 1:1 into gold. Others believe that a small amount of Titan Residuum (between 3 and 20 per quest) would be an appealing incentive to farm new Azerite gear. Blizzard has not yet responded to this.
When the Heart is “full”, Azerite is no longer useful.
However, it is also possible that Blizzard simply “waits out” this problem. After all, artifact power will become relevant again with Patch 8.2 of the Rise of Azshara. There, the maximum level of the Heart of Azeroth will increase and grant access to new abilities.
Have you also leveled your Heart of Azeroth to level 50 and are struggling with the problem? Or do you find it good that many world quests are now uninteresting?
Players have discovered a new Easter Egg in Destiny 2. In the mission “The Hour Zero,” Destiny veterans encounter an old friend: the beloved ball from Destiny 1.
When Guardians were not striking poses in the old Tower to showcase their latest gear or trying to jump onto the roof of the old post office, the ball was usually kicked back and forth across the Plaza.
The ball from Destiny 1 looks a bit reddish here, but I swear it was more purple back then!
Until the attack of the Red Legion. In the first mission of Destiny 2, “Homecoming,” veterans could see their beloved ball lying on the ground. Flattened by one of the Space Turtles.
In the latest mission “The Hour Zero,” Bungie now reminds us of the already legendary ball and pays it the respect it deserves.
The broken ball in the destroyed Tower of Destiny.
This is what happens to the ball: If you want to earn the Destiny 2 version of the Outbreak Prime, the Perfected Outbreak, you will return to the old Tower from Destiny 1 after a long questline, which was destroyed by Ghaul and his Legion at the beginning of Destiny 2. “The Hour Zero” is a time-critical mission and you only have 20 minutes to complete it. However, you should still keep your eyes open, as you can discover a small Easter Egg related to the old ball.
At one point, you can see the trampled ball lying on the stairs. Someone has cordoned off its “corpse” with tape. Probably to prevent anyone from stepping on the old friend.
At one point, you can see the old friend again. Source: Reddit
This is what players say: In the Destiny subreddit, especially old Destiny veterans reminisce about the purple ball from the old Tower. According to one player, we Guardians actually went to war with the Red Legion because the Cabal destroyed our ball.
Another player suggests that it might not be the Space Turtles who are guilty of our ball’s demise, but the nasty Trevor. TR3-VR, an oversized vacuum robot, can also be encountered in the questline surrounding the Perfected Outbreak. The dear Trevor sends a chill down the spine of some Guardians…
Players are currently finding creative ways to bypass the time limit for the Perfected Outbreak:
To Fortnite: Battle Royale patch 9.01 is here. The first major content update for Season 9 brings, among other things, a new weapon: the tactical assault rifle.
This is included in the new update 9.01: Just under a week after the start of Season 9, the first content update for Fortnite is here. In version 9.01, you can expect a new weapon, a removed weapon, and a big nerf for a controversial weapon.
The features of patch 9.01 in PvP
New weapon – Tactical assault rifle: This weapon is a hybrid between an assault rifle and a submachine gun. It has its greatest impact at close range due to its low spread and is particularly good for taking down buildings.
Availability:
rare, epic, legendary
Damage:
22 / 23 / 24 – Headshot multiplier: 1.75
Ammunition:
Medium
Magazine:
30
Weapon change – Submachine gun:
Since there are already enough good weapons available at close range with the drum gun and the new tactical assault rifle, the submachine gun has been removed from the game.
Feature change – Wind tunnels: The developers have changed a few details regarding the new wind tunnels in Season 9:
You can now build in wind tunnels
If you collide with buildings in the wind tunnel, they will be destroyed
After storm phase 5, the wind tunnels will be deactivated. Too many players were blown into the storm by them, and they are hardly useful in tight spaces anyway.
Gameplay changes and bug fixes: Here are some of the changes:
The Baller now has 150 instead of 200 health points
The drum gun was nerfed from 26/27 to 22/23 damage and thus significantly nerfed
Performance has been improved
Physics have been optimized
Whether the death zone at Tilted Towers has been fixed is not clear from the patch notes.
This is changing in Creative mode:
You can now rebuild the ruined Tilted Towers after the volcanic eruption.
The patch highlights from update 9.01 in PvE
New war games – Fog capsules: Here you need to destroy the fog capsules before they spawn minibosses.
New hero – Prehistoric Izza: A new constructor who is particularly tough and tanky thanks to the “Dinosaur Skin” perk. Available in the shop from May 16, 2019, at 2:00 AM.

Monster Hunter World is getting the Iceborne expansion in September, and it can now be pre-ordered. There is even a Collector’s Edition, which is a must-have for any fan. The problem is: the edition is exclusive to the Japanese market.
This edition is about: Anyone who loves Monster Hunter World shouldn’t miss this edition, as it includes numerous gadgets from the game world that look incredibly cool.
The Master Edition, as it is called by Capcom, can only be ordered from Japanese shops and costs about 180€.
This is the Japanese Master Edition of Iceborne
What’s included in the coolest edition of Monster Hunter World Iceborne
What does the edition bring? The 180€ box contains numerous highlights. Here’s a sneak peek:
A Palico figure, serving as a stand for your controller or phone
When purchased at Capcom’s shop: A bonus keychain
This is the highlight: The Palico figure is clearly a highlight here. The Palicos are your cute companions in Monster Hunter World, who can even find useful gadgets.
This cute Palico figure is included in the edition
Now the little monsters are also available as a figure in the Master Edition. The Palico can hold your controller when you’re not gaming. Alternatively, you can also use it as a phone holder.
The figure is about 15 cm tall. In Japan, you can even buy the Palico separately.
The Palico also serves as a controller holder
Is the edition also available in Germany? We will also receive a Master Edition on the European market. However, it only contains the base game and the expansion.
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
An edition with various gadgets is not available. You can only check this out at the Japanese store of Capcom.
When will the Iceborne expansion be released? Iceborne will be released for PS4 and Xbox One on September 6.
You can get an overview of Iceborne in our extensive hub:
World of Warcraft has already revealed details about its 15th anniversary. The rewards this time are even better than in previous years.
The
birthday celebration in World of Warcraft is always a major
in-game event that offers special rewards and activities. In 2019, it will be the 15th anniversary, and the developers have come up with some really special actions. There will not only be a new pet but also a new mount and even a dedicated raid.
What mount is available? The reward is the Obsidian Worldbreaker. This is a dragon and therefore a flying mount that visually resembles Deathwing very much. He was the Aspect of Earth and the leader of the Black Dragonflight, but was killed at the end of the Cataclysm expansion.

#How to get the mount? The mount is available to all players who complete a new raid that is only available during the event. It consists of battles from the past. You will be able to face off against the most famous WoW bosses once again and relive those moments. The folks at wowhead have reported that one of the bosses is Kael’thas from the Sunwell. Other bosses are not yet known.
The whole thing will be available through the raid finder (LFR). Although Blizzard describes it as an “epic task,” the actual difficulty will likely be low so that as many players as possible can receive the rewards.
Kael’thas once again as an appealing boss? That could happen during the 15th anniversary.
When does the event take place? The current WoW calendar states that the event starts on November 16, 2019. So there are still a few months until you can ride your own little Deathwing. The advantage is that by then most players will likely have already unlocked flying in Zandalar and Kul Tiras, as this is possible with Patch 8.2 Azshara’s Rise .
Which bosses would you like to fight in the World of Warcraft anniversary event? Who was the coolest boss fight in the 15 years of WoW that must definitely appear in the event? Let us know in the comments!

What will the update bring for battle royale fans? In addition to the obligatory bug fixes, there will also be a solution for the death location in Neo-Tilted, where players had to meet their end without enemy action.
With the tactical assault rifle, we will probably also be greeted by a new weapon that is likely a hybrid between a submachine gun and an assault rifle. How exactly it will play, we will find out at the latest after the maintenance.
What does update 9.01 bring for Save the World players? So far, Epic has not released a new roadmap for the PvE faction of Fortnite. Accordingly, little is known about today’s update. Rumor has it that there could be a new game mode for the Wargames introduced with Season 9.
We will, however, only learn the details with the patch notes.
What do you think of this update and the new weapon? Could it shake up the meta?

There is a new trailer for Harry Potter: Wizards Unite! In it, you see your mission in the game and numerous creatures you will encounter.
This has now been shown: The trailer does not show in-game elements, but it gives you an overview of what your task will be in the game: You must prevent the wizarding world from being revealed to the Muggle world.
To do this, you need to confront numerous magical creatures from the Harry Potter universe and bring them back to the wizarding world. The trailer now shows some characters that have not been revealed so far.
This is the new trailer for Wizards Unite
Watch the trailer here: The trailer lasts just over a minute and, typical for Wizards Unite, again only shows snippets from the real world.

You see how 3 football players have to fight against Death Eaters. Additionally, the three-headed dog known from the first part of Harry Potter runs through a city center causing chaos.
This is your mission: A voice in the trailer calls you to play. You are to send all these magical beings back to the wizarding world. The mission was already known beforehand, but it is made clear again here.
This excerpt is interesting: The trailer shows Death Eaters in connection with Wizards Unite for the first time. The Death Eaters are the loyal companions of Voldemort, who was Harry Potter’s greatest adversary.
Here you see the battle between the wizards and the Death Eaters
It can now be assumed that the Death Eaters are not coming to Wizards Unite alone, but that Voldemort may also play a role. The developers promised at a press event special encounters that could happen in Wizards Unite. Voldemort would be a good example here.
It would fit well with Wizards Unite, as the developers have so far proven to be very faithful to the lore of Harry Potter. Harry and his friends also play a role in the game. The greatest adversary should not be missing either.
The registration for the Beta of World of Warcraft: Classic is running. We will tell you how to participate.
Blizzard has released some information about World of Warcraft: Classic today. In addition to the announcement of the official release date of WoW: Classic, there was also the indication that there will be extensive beta tests. However, you need to register separately for these beta tests.
How can I participate in the Beta for WoW: Classic? The registration for the Beta of Classic-WoW is quite simple and can be done in just a few steps:
Select your account in the top right corner and go to “Account Settings”
Scroll all the way down and click on “To Beta Profile Settings”
Check the box for “World of Warcraft Classic” and confirm by clicking “Update Preferences”
Now you are registered for the Beta and can, with a bit of luck, participate in the various testing phases.
When does the Beta start? The first start of the beta test for World of Warcraft: Classic is already on May 15, 2019. Then the first players will be able to log in to the beta servers. However, the number of players at the beginning will be small and will be increased over the weeks.
Stress tests for particularly many players: Besides the general beta, there will also be a number of stress tests with which Blizzard wants to push the limits of the server technology. For these tests, there may be certain restrictions, such as a level cap or a restriction to certain areas of the game world.
The previously announced stress tests will take place on the following days:
Wednesday, May 22 – Thursday, May 23
Wednesday, June 19 – Thursday, June 20
Thursday, July 18 – Friday, July 19
Registration does not guarantee participation: Blizzard notes on the website that registering for the beta does not guarantee that you can participate. Other factors will be taken into consideration, such as how long a player has been a subscriber, to ensure a healthy mix of different player groups to provide the most diverse feedback possible.
Have you already registered for the Beta for WoW: Classic? Do you even want to participate? Or are you waiting directly for the (re)release of the game?
More about Classic-WoW can be found in these articles:
This has gone so far that players no longer fight in raids but only wait in the lobby until other trainers defeat the legendary Pokémon. They themselves only want the rewards and don’t even catch the Pokémon.
How useless is the Lake Trio?
This problem exists with the Lake Trio: All three Pokémon are Psychic type. This type has significantly stronger Pokémon that overshadow the Lake Trio. So if you are looking for a good Psychic attacker, you should not rely on the Lake Trio.
The Lake Trio is not really useful
How useless are the Pokémon really? Tobutz, which can be caught in America, is the most useful here. Vesprit and Selfe, on the other hand, have almost no value.
They have weak attack values, and compared to Mewtwo or Espeon, they perform significantly worse.
This problem exists with the type: Not only does the Psychic type already have enough good Pokémon, but it is also simply used too infrequently.
Psychic is effective against Fighting and Poison types. Right now, you can use Psychic Pokémon well in Machoke raids, but otherwise not at all. So what’s the point of a Psychic Pokémon that doesn’t even have good stats?
Mewtwo is a significantly better alternative for Psychic Pokémon
This is the situation in Asia: Asian players report on Reddit that in their Selfe raids, there are often players in the lobby who do not participate in the battle.
They are just there to use their daily raid pass and then grab the rewards. They typically don’t catch Selfe afterwards. So the situation is similar to here.
Of course, it must be said that Selfe is even worse than Vesprit, yet the European Pokémon is not much more useful.
When will new Legendaries arrive? Officially, the Lake Trio will remain in raids until May 27th. However, there could very well be a raid week with another Pokémon announced in between. Recently, some quests were found for that.
In a possible raid week, you can spend your passes well.
After May, many players fear that the Lake Trio will rotate, and we will receive the next of the 3 Lake Pokémon. However, this is unlikely, because Niantic confirmed that the monsters should stay in their region.
You don’t even need to raid on Sunday, as the Community Day with Charmander is taking place. Here’s how you can prepare:
The online mode of Red Dead Redemption 2, Red Dead Online, is set to be expanded with new features. Rockstar announced roles for the summer that will allow players to dive deeper into the Wild West.
What has been announced? Rockstar is looking towards the future for Red Dead Online and plans to bring additional new content with upcoming updates. After the end of the beta, the game will receive specific roles in the summer that players can choose from.
Players can first choose the roles of Bounty Hunter, Treasure Hunter, and Trader.
These are the jobs: These specific “jobs” are intended to open up new gameplay opportunities and allow players to immerse themselves even deeper into their character.
Bounty Hunters, Traders, and Treasure Hunters in RDO.
Bounty Hunters hunt for wanted criminals, Treasure Hunters scour the Wild West for special treasures and extraordinary items, and Traders can build a lucrative business in their own camp.
Additionally, with the various roles, new outfits, weapons, and other rewards will come to RDO, which players can earn. Whether they choose to focus on a single role and quickly unlock the unique abilities of a job or take on multiple roles at once is up to them.
Rockstar is taking a different approach with Red Dead Online than with GTA Online: In the online mode of GTA 5, progress revolves around money as well as the ownership of properties and vehicles, while Red Dead Online now focuses on character development.
Treasure Hunters set out in search of extraordinary rarities.
What does this feature bring? Rockstar continues to work on delivering a world where players can play as they wish. For instance, with the large spring update, they have introduced a passive mode in which players cannot be lassoed and receive less damage from enemy players.
With the upcoming jobs, players can dive even deeper into the Wild West and take on fitting roles in the world.
Blizzard has finally announced a release date for WoW Classic. In August, you can finally satisfy your craving for Vanilla and play WoW Classic. A beta will also be available prior.
When is the release exactly? The exact release date for WoW: Classic will be August 27, 2019. Thus, Blizzard keeps its promise to make Classic playable by summer 2019.
Up to three characters can be created starting August 13, 2019, if you have an active subscription or game time. This way, you can secure a character name.
How can I participate? If you want to play Classic, you only need a subscription to World of Warcraft. This costs standardly €12.99 per month and includes both Classic and Retail up to and including Legion.
You will need to purchase the latest expansion Battle for Azeroth separately if you want to play the most current version.
How do I participate in the beta? Before WoW Classic starts in August, there will be a beta for testing. Stress tests are also planned to check server load. You can learn how to participate in the WoW Classic beta in our article.
What’s in WoW Classic
These features WoW Classic has: WoW Classic is supposed to be the classic and (almost) unembellished version of World of Warcraft, as veterans remember it from about 15 years ago. However, some minor adjustments have been made, such as loot distribution.
However, other features are still exactly as they were before, even if they may seem “worse” compared to the current version. Spells are queried more slowly, which can lead to certain combinations and overlaps of abilities.
Ragnaros is just one of the first bosses in WoW Classic.
What else do I need to know? To prepare well for WoW Classic, we have put together some specials on MeinMMO to help you find the “Vanilla flair” again:
