The new trailer for Season 9 of Fortnite is online and provides you with the first insights into the events of the new season! Under the motto “The future is yours,” Season 9 kicks off.
What’s new in Season 9? This season is all about the future. The trailer shows what the skins did after the volcanic eruption and how the game world has changed since then.
In the video description for the trailer, Epic mentions new locations that you can explore. There is also a new transportation system in the game. You can move quickly through a wind tunnel.
This is what you see in the trailer: The clips mainly show the time after the volcanic eruption. A Jonesy skin and a Shali skin are escaping into a bunker just before the volcano erupts.

Shali sacrifices himself for Jonesy: The Jonesy skin is now just disheveled and has a long beard. He seems to have used the Shali skin to survive, as he wears the shell as a cape and holds a banana shake.
When the doors open, you can see the new game world of Fortnite. With the motto “The future is yours,” you are welcomed by the new and futuristic world of Neo Tilted.
This is what you see of the new world: The glimpses of Neo Tilted are small, but you can see that the city now consists of large skyscrapers and colorful billboards. Airships circle above the city.
This is what the new world of Fortnite looks like
In the video description, Epic also talks about other locations you can visit. There is “Shali’s Banana Stand” and “Nugget Hut.” They could be similar to locations such as Durrr Burger and could play a role in upcoming challenges.
The patch notes for the update are already out. Here’s what awaits you in Season 9:
What classes can you play in the MMORPG Bless Unleashed? We have an overview for you, after the developers have now introduced the Mage.
In Bless Unleashed, you create a character typical for the genre from five classes. They have specific roles to play, which is why a group should always ensure a balanced mix of classes.

This is the Crusader: The Crusader represents a combination of Warrior and Tank. He deflects attacks with his shield and must dodge attacks. However, he can also deal significant damage using combos.
Through these combos, he manages to avoid attacks and then immediately deal damage to opponents.
This is the Berserker: The Berserker is the strongest Warrior class in Bless Unleashed. However, he should never rush into the fray recklessly. A tactical position is important, as he can execute area attacks with his skills that hit multiple enemies.
Combos are very important, but they should not be interrupted, which plays into tactical positioning.

This is the Priest: The Priest is not the typical healer. Rather, they represent a combination of healer and warrior. Priests can provide their allies with new life energy and, for example, sanctify the ground, which gives a buff. They also deal significant damage.
As a Priest, it is necessary to combine attack and support so that the group is effectively protected.
This is the Mage: Mages are the damage dealers of the group. Through their spells, they deal devastating damage, such as through elemental fire or ice.
Mages can summon a meteor that deals area damage. Combos can cause suppression fire or you can freeze your enemies with ice before hurling a meteor at them.

This is the Ranger: The ranged fighters attack enemies from a safe distance with bow and arrow. In close combat, however, one should not underestimate the Rangers.
Rangers can take out specific enemies with targeted shots and continue firing with combos while retreating. They are also capable of quickly withdrawing from dangerous situations.
The launch is at the end of the year
When is Bless Unleashed coming out? The release of the game is planned for the end of the year on Xbox One. There is no specific date yet. Beta testers have surprisingly shown enthusiasm for the MMORPG, which is said to be significantly better than Bless Online for PC.
In the State of the Game on 8.5., developer Massive announced that the Gear Score in The Division 2 will not be increased to 515 with Title Update 3 after all. How did this happen?
These were the plans for the Gear Score: Actually, they wanted to introduce loot with Gear Score 515 with the upcoming update. The current cap (for drops) is at 500. This would have meant better stats for the gear.
However, many players feel that another increase in the Gear Score is too early. This was only introduced with the last update on April 5, which brought Tidal Basin and World Tier 5.
That’s why they are postponing the plans: The clear feedback from fans who could try out this change on the PTS (Player Test Server) ultimately led Massive to decide to postpone the increase of the Gear Score indefinitely.
In a separate article on the subject, Ubisoft explained more about what led to this decision:
After we have discussed in many meetings and video calls […], we have decided that with all the changes that will come with [Title Update 3], an increase in the Gear Score at this point would cause some problems.
They do not want to undermine the players’ progress and have clearly heard the feedback from the community. It should not only be about hunting higher gear.
Instead, the raid will now drop 500 items. Nevertheless, there will be other exclusive loot, such as the 3 new gear sets and a new exotic weapon.
Massive also thanks all players who provided active feedback. You can read the blog article on the official website.
When will the update and the raid be released? For Title Update 3, the upcoming week is set as the release period. The raid should follow shortly thereafter.

This is the new Sentinel skin in Fortnite
This is the “Normal” form of Rox
This is what Rox looks like upgraded

To collect them, players follow clues to locate them. By collecting them, you unlock rewards and uncover secrets that Season 9 in Fortnite brings.
Since September 2018, the first alpha test of New World has been running, but it will soon come to an end. However, this does not really bring the start of a beta or even the release of the MMO any closer.
When does the first alpha of New World end? In a blog post, the developers of New World announced that they will end their first alpha phase on June 3rd. On that day, the test servers will be taken offline for the first time.
Until June 3rd, however, players who were invited to the alpha of the MMO can continue to test extensively and provide feedback.
Why is the first alpha ending? In the roughly 9 months of the alpha, a lot of feedback has been given by the players. This has already resulted in changes to the entry into New World, which were shown in a leak.
However, the developers apparently want to make some more extensive changes. These are meant to significantly change the game world. The servers will be taken offline to prepare for these changes.
New World was actually quite advanced: According to voices around the alpha, the MMO was actually already in a good condition. All major systems regarding expansion and the battle for fortresses were functioning, and both the combat and crafting systems were convincing.
Amazon also began involving the press at the beginning of the year and offered opportunities to play New World at various locations around the world. We were also there in Berlin and documented our first steps in the MMO.
However, it seems that the alpha testers found content that still needs to be revised.
When will we see something from the game again? There is still no official statement on how long the revisions will take and when players will be able to dive back into the world of New World.
However, based on the statements in the blog post, it is likely that due to the significant changes, another test phase will follow. An open beta and a release seem to still be a long way off for the MMO.
But there are also some other MMOs to look forward to this year:
At the end of the year, the MMORPG Frozen Flame will be released on Steam, offering a novel approach. You can actually finish the online game and then start over again.
What is Frozen Flame? The MMORPG immerses you in a devastated world, where only a few humans and dragons exist. Your task is to find and defeat one of the legendary dragons and break the eternal cycle of this event.
Survival elements play a role, as you must survive in the dying, icy world. This includes building a shelter.
You create a hero based on several classes.
Your stats change your appearance.
You master the “Power of Flame,” which allows you to use magic and enhance yourself. The flame is also essential for crafting new weapons.
Many monsters inhabit the game world, which you fight together with friends.
Cooperatively, you try to learn more about the world’s past.
In Cataclysm mode, you fight against other players for valuable rewards.
You explore a vast world, where you can climb mountains and glide through the air.

What is special about the game? There is a clear goal: You must find one of the legendary dragons through clues in the game world. Once you have done this, a final battle awaits. Then, the Cataclysm begins and a new cycle starts. Thus, you start again from the beginning. This is somewhat reminiscent of the principle of MMOs Rend.
Do you start over from scratch? No. Parts of your progress are carried over to the next cycle, and you will encounter a special event based on the actions of your previous adventure. New challenges await you in each cycle.
The Alpha is already running
In Frozen Flame, you can glide over the landscape.
When will Frozen Flame be released? The MMORPG is currently in the alpha phase and is set to start in the third quarter of 2019 in Early Access on Steam.
Here’s how you can participate in the Alpha: To play now and provide feedback to the developers, you need to register on the official website and may get access to the Alpha with a little luck.
So it is! Battlefield 5 will get private servers in the form of Private Games. DICE recently revealed this and more details. Many fans are happy and celebrate the return of this popular feature.
After Battlefield 5 had to do without private servers for a long time and it was uncertain whether this popular and requested feature would ever be part of the game, there is now finally certainty. The RSP program (Rented Server Program) will also continue in the current installment – albeit with some changes. We summarize the most important points for you.
Private Games in Battlefield 5 – What You Need to Know
Private Games – An Evolution of Private Servers: The rented server program from previous Battlefield titles will also continue in Battlefield 5. The feature has now been renamed to Private Games and represents an evolution of the previous concept.
When will the Private Games arrive? The feature is scheduled for late summer or early autumn 2019. The Private Games will be developed further over time, so it will not just remain at the initial functionality.
What is included in the Private Games? With this feature, players can create their own servers directly from the game, from a browser, or through a special web service – with completely custom rules. You are no longer reliant on the official servers with their fixed framework and can create or choose your individual Battlefield experience according to your preferences.
The servers you create will be established at the nearest possible location to your own site – and that within the official server infrastructure! Numerous admin tools and essential must-have functions are available to fans for the creation and management of the servers.
This includes settings such as
Create a private game from the main menu
Set server name
Server description
Server password
Map rotation
Game modes
Number of players
Kicking players
Class availability
Weapon availability
Vehicle availability
Friendly fire
Automatic healing
Aim assist
Number of tickets
Respawn times
Minimap
Compass
These are some examples of admin functions:
Pre-set options for private games (vanilla, infantry only, etc.)
Highlighting the name in chat for server owners
Managing server settings in-game or via the web
Server description during the loading screen
Manually moving players to another team
Later, additional features like moderators lists, VIPs, or player bans are to be added.
These are the most important changes for the Private Games: The private games represent an evolution of the previous private servers. We summarize the most important changes for you:
The name of the feature has been changed from RSP to Private Games
The “Private Games” feature will be completely free in its basic functions – for everyone! Every player will be able to create their own server for free. However, you will have to pay for extended features. The extent of the free features is still unknown. It’s conceivable that the must-have features mentioned above will be included.
Your created servers will remain as long as there are players on them. If the server is empty, it will be dissolved. But don’t worry. You can store your server settings locally and easily recreate the same server at any time.
This is how players are reacting to this announcement: The news of the introduction of Private Games is being welcomed and celebrated by numerous fans on Reddit and other forums.
The return of private servers is the best news in a long time and one of the best things that could happen to Battlefield 5, say many fans.
After all, the private servers with their numerous individual settings like maps, game modes, number of players, or the exclusion of certain weapons were very popular and a welcome change from the rigid official servers.
In addition, this feature is now completely free in its basic functions. Previously, you always had to pay for private servers. This is also very well received by the fans. Many can hardly wait until the Private Games finally go live.
This evening, the new game in the Ghost Recon universe is to be presented. The title may have already leaked and is rumored to be Breakpoint.
This is what happened: Last night, on May 8th, some alleged information about the next game in the Ghost Recon series was posted. The information is said to have come from a listing for the Collector’s Edition – from Ubisoft itself!
This banner is supposedly advertising the Collector’s Edition of the new Ghost Recon.
These are the leaks: According to the alleged information collected on ResetEra and Reddit, the upcoming game is supposed to be a sequel to Ghost Recon: Wildlands. The title is said to be Ghost Recon: Breakpoint.
Like Wildlands, the upcoming game is expected to focus on the co-op mode with four players. There will also be missions with a lot of story.
Supposedly, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint will be released on October 4th for PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.
The villain in Breakpoint is said to be Cole D. Walker, played by Jon Bernthal.
This is what it will be about: According to the leak, players will face a new villain who should already be familiar to them. It’s reportedly about Cole D. Walker, who recently entered the game with a new update for Ghost Recon: Wildlands. Walker is said to be a soldier who rebelled against his superiors and now has an army of drones at his disposal.
This is supposed to be the Collector’s Edition: Alleged information about the Collector’s Edition of Breakpoint was also posted on Reddit. It is said to include a 24 cm figure of Cole D. Walker, a map, a Year 1 pass, and an Ultimate Pack with additional missions, vehicles, cosmetic items, and items that unlock character classes earlier.
In Fortnite the servers will be shut down today, on 9.5., on all platforms (PC, MAC, Xbox One, PS4, Switch, iOS, and Android) so that the new Season 9 can be activated. When does the downtime start and when will the Fortnite servers be back online?
What is happening today in Fortnite? Weekly maintenance occurs in Fortnite to allow developers to activate new updates for the game. During this time, the servers will be unavailable to you; you will have to take a break.
Today, the maintenance is likely to take a bit longer since Fortnite is now starting its 9th Season. This brings many changes.
When and how long will the Fortnite servers be offline?
When will the servers be down? Around 9:30 AM, you will no longer be able to join new lobbies. Fortnite sets this buffer before the server goes down so that you are not kicked out of ongoing matches during the shutdown.
The actual server downtime will start today at 10:00 AM German time. Then Fortnite will no longer be accessible to you.
When will Fortnite be back online today? The servers of Fortnite are now accessible again.
What’s new in Season 9 of Fortnite
Update: Fortnite has now officially introduced Season 9. Here are the first insights:
These contents were expected: In recent days, Fortnite has already posted some teaser images to prepare players for the new season. The theme of these teasers is “Future.”
Therefore, a futuristic theme was expected for Season 9 of Fortnite. Fortnite has now fulfilled this by renaming Tilted Towers to Neo Tilted. It is now very colorful there.
With teasers, players were already tuned into the bright theme before the season started.
Liverpool won 4:0 and made the “dead” cards valuable again. Profits of up to 300,000 coins were possible.
Example RTTF cards
These profits were possible
The investment was worth it: With the RTTF-Fabinho card, the biggest profits could be made.
Here, the price of the Fabinho card before the semi-final second leg was about 310,000 coins (PS4). A real bargain compared to the weeks before. The 89-rated card was not available for less than 450,000 coins throughout April (PS4).
Once the Liverpool victory was confirmed, the price skyrocketed, with no end in sight. Thus, FUT players could demand prices of over 600,000 coins during this time.
The sudden price increase of Fabinho RTTF on second leg day
Meanwhile, the value of the card has stabilized at 510,000 coins. However, once the card receives its upgrade, this is expected to rise again.
Van Dijk also brought in some coins: Similar profits could also be made with Van Dijk’s RTTF card.
One could buy Van Dijk before the game for 440,000 coins (PS4) and immediately sell it again for 660,000 coins. A profit of 220,000 coins.
This increase was also significant and surely made many players happy.
This price drop was enormous
Such a thing is rarely seen: Owners of the RTTF-Suarez card must have been upset about the loss of value of their card. It was available for a whopping 1,400,000 coins (PS4) before the game, and as soon as the game was over, the price dropped by a whopping 500,000 coins.
And the price continues to drop. The card is currently at about 770,000 coins (PS4).
Such a drop has rarely been seen.
One’s joy is another’s sorrow
This is what players say: Many FUT players are upset about having sold their cards in panic, like the user LBSchalke04LB. They wrote below the Fabinho card on Futbin: “Why the hell did I sell Fabinho for 340,000 yesterday?”
Others, however, are happy about the easy coins earned, like Samutwelve: “Easy 200,000 coins profit, thanks to Barcelona’s defense”
Are you also among the lucky ones, or did you rely on Barcelona’s victory?

FC Liverpool spectacularly reaches the Champions League final, and FUT players benefit from it in FIFA 19. Read here how it happened.
Who would have thought that FC Liverpool could turn around a 0:3 first-leg deficit against FC Barcelona? Many FUT players probably didn’t believe it, allowing bolder players to make a juicy profit.
Since FIFA 19, there are RTTF cards (Road to the Final). These dynamic cards receive upgrades every time the team reaches the next round of the Champions League.
The further a player goes in the Champions League, the better and more valuable their card becomes.
This is what happened: Many owners of the Liverpool-RTTF cards of Van Dijk or Fabinho were anxious about the value of their cards. After the 0:3 defeat in the first leg, their market values in FIFA 19 had already dropped significantly, with no end in sight.
Quickly, the cards were sold cheaply before the second leg to avoid even greater losses.
Fearless players swooped in, hoping for the unlikely advancement of FC Liverpool. And as we now know, that is exactly what happened in a spectacular manner.
Are you also among the lucky ones, or did you rely on Barcelona’s victory?
Van Dijk also brought in some coins: Similar profits could also be made with Van Dijk’s RTTF card.

MeinMMO:Please tell our readers more about the multiplayer and co-op system. How will it work exactly?
Producer Iizuka: Basically, you set out as the protagonist plus a buddy to explore the world. However, you can send a signal at any point. As another player, you can also set it up to receive these help signals.
If the conditions are met to qualify as a helper, you can then travel to the “host’s” world. You will retain your character’s appearance, level, and abilities.
MeinMMO:What conditions would that be, for example?
Producer Iizuka: It mainly has to do with the helper being as far along in the game as the host and being able to switch to the same area.
That means there are currently no requirements regarding level. However, we may adjust that later.
In Code Vein, you can team up with your buddy NPC and another player in a group
MeinMMO:Let’s say a friend and I are at exactly the same point in the story. And we’re stuck on the same boss. If I call him for help now and we take down the boss together, will the progress also be saved for him?
Producer Iizuka: No, you would need to go into his world to fight the boss again. Or he has to ask someone else for help.
MeinMMO:What rewards will there be for players who frequently help others? Is there any incentive to motivate more people to help?
Producer Iizuka: All items and EXP that you received in the host’s world can of course be taken into your own world. But there will also be other forms of rewards that you can take with you during your stay.
MeinMMO: Will there be PvP?
Producer Iizuka: There will not be a PvP mode. We intentionally left it out because we chose the experience of traveling together with the buddy and cooperative partner through the world as the core concept for the game.
The combat system of Code Vein will be familiar to veterans of Dark Souls
The shared experience of the story with NPCs and co-op partners
MeinMMO:Let’s say I’m interested in Code Vein but not yet 100% convinced. What three features or aspects of the game would you show me to get me excited?
Producer Iizuka: As a basic explanation, Code Vein is an action RPG with a relatively high level of difficulty. It requires players to constantly try different approaches to reach their goals. When they achieve it, the sense of accomplishment is correspondingly great. That is essentially how the game works.
To achieve this, there are three properties that are important. First is the storyline, which is very dramatic and complex. There is a lot to discover within it.
Secondly, there is the buddy system. The buddy is not only seen as an NPC who provides assistance but also brings along a character through whom players can learn more over time.
The buddy characters play an important role in Code Vein: They help in fighting and contribute more to the story experience
And thirdly, there is character building: Players can continually try to overcome enemies and progress through level ups and various options. There are a tremendous number of variations.
And as a small fourth point: character creator. Players can express their character according to their preferences and have many options.
MeinMMO: What kind of post-game content will there be?
Producer Iizuka: Primarily, you can restart with the experience and skills you have collected throughout the game. So a sort of New Game +.
Additionally, there are ways to return to your current game state and complete side quests and dungeons. This includes the Depths (dungeon), which you could explore in the demo.
While exploring, you can also collect items that you may have overlooked previously, which can lead to new missions that were not necessary for the main game.
The abilities of your character are determined by its “Blood Code,” which represents a kind of class in Code Vein
MeinMMO:In the past, there has often been the question of a Switch version of Code Vein. However, Bandai Namco has deliberately avoided answering this question. Why is this kept silent?
Producer Iizuka (laughs): When developing Code Vein, the Switch version was not considered, so we did not develop it for that from the beginning. What comes in the future, I cannot unfortunately say. But I am open to anything.
Black Desert has introduced a new expansion that brings you 2 zones under the sea. We will show you what is available for you there.
What does the expansion bring? This update has already been announced in a road map and brings you the Protty Caves and the underwater ruins of Sycraia into the game. Additionally, there is a new field boss, Sycrid, to battle.
When does the expansion start? So far, these new features do not exist yet. Only on May 22 will these innovations be introduced into the game.
What’s in the new expansion of Black Desert
What are these zones under the sea? Although these two areas are located below the water surface, you can move around normally and do not have to swim.
The Protty Caves
How do I get to these zones? Last summer, these zones were teased. It was noted there that you can only reach the areas with a boat. From there, you must venture into the ocean.
The Protty Caves are places where darkness prevails, and only plants and creatures illuminate your way. There you will encounter amphibious beings that you must fight.

In the underwater ruins of Sycraia, on the other hand, you will embark on a treasure hunt to find a special artifact that grants you access to special ruins.
There is a new boss: In the underwater ruins, you will also encounter the new boss, Sycrid. You will only be able to defeat this opponent through teamwork.
Here you will meet the new boss – The underwater ruins
What else is new? You do not have to wait until May 22 to play new features. Already this week, after maintenance, the feature “Marnis’ Great Stone” will be available. This gives you rare items when you eliminate enemies. The defeated monster must correspond to the type of stone you possess.
Apex Legends will reveal the first details about Season 2 in June. Players already have high expectations, making the season crucial for the game.
When will the season be presented? On June 7, we will learn more about Season 2 of Apex Legends. The E3 will take place there, and publisher EA wants to provide the first insights into Season 2 together with Respawn.
The season is expected to be released at the end of the current quarter or at the beginning of the new one. This would be around June 30.
The season will be crucial: In Season 2, it will also become evident whether Apex Legends can withstand the high expectations of the players. The current season has not been well received by some players, and more was expected than could be delivered.
The problems from Season 1 and what needs to improve in Season 2
The Battle Pass from Season 1 was rather disappointing
Additionally, leveling up in the Battle Pass takes forever, and the rewards at the end are rather lackluster.
Many players were already exhausted after a few days in Season 1. They have long been calling for new content. Other players turned their backs on the game, causing the player numbers to decline.
Apex Legends now has to prove this: Season 2 is pivotal for Apex Legends. Where is the game heading? Is Respawn demonstrating that Season 1 was more of a test and that they will finally cater to the players with Season 2? Or is it going in the opposite direction and the 2nd season will be just as weak as its predecessor?
This is what Season 2 must offer: In Season 2, players must receive an incentive to level up the Battle Pass. If the rewards are weak, many fans will lose interest.
Apex Legends needs to improve significantly in Season 2 to make the players happy
Respawn should also consider whether they want to implement weekly challenges that provide players with incentives to play each week and promise new rewards. At the very least, they should offer something that changes the game’s meta.
This is what the developers promised: Already in April, Respawn spoke to the players and promised that they would engage more with the community in the upcoming seasons.
In addition, there should be a new legend in every new season. Along with the legend, there will be another feature that changes the meta of Apex Legends, Respawn announced.
What do you think? Will Apex Legends hit the mark with Season 2, or will it be another disappointment?
Not only Season 2 is coming soon, but also a mobile version of Apex Legends:
Currently in Pokémon GO, the Detective Pikachu event is happening and players from Europe are complaining about an annoying disadvantage. We will tell you what it’s all about.
This disadvantage we have in Europe: In Europe, there is Pantimos as a regional Pokémon to catch. This Pokémon can also be found more frequently in the event, blocking numerous other spawns.
Pantimos is also very common outside of the event, so players are not really looking for more Pantimos spawns. Other regions of the world do not have this disadvantage. In those regions, Pantimos does not exist, and the spawns are correspondingly different and better for many players.
What players say about the Pantimos disadvantage
This is how Pantimos is perceived by the players: Player “FFIXwasthebestFF” writes on Reddit: “I know they want to bring Pokémon that play a role in the upcoming Detective Pikachu movie. But having more Pantimos in the wild is a slap in the face for all European players. They are a real plague all year round. Niantic should reduce the spawns of that.”
Pantimos has a baby Pokémon named Pantimini, which is not yet in the game.
Player “arkenmaverick” even writes: “This game has made me hate Pantimos with all my heart.”
“axnjxn00” says: “It’s unbelievable that they have increased the damn Pantimos spawns. Currently, 75% of the spawns are Pantimos.”
This problem exists with Pantimos: The regional Pokémon is completely useless. It cannot be evolved for XP, nor is it useful in battle.
When comparing Pantimos with regional Pokémon like Scyther or Tauros, it is significantly weaker. Even outside of events, Pantimos is everywhere. Every player has caught more than enough Pantimos.
Players are upset about the many Pantimos
That’s why players feel disadvantaged: Looking at other regions of the world, the spawns there are significantly more pleasant. Every Pantimos here is a different and possibly better spawn in other regions. So during the event, apart from Pantimos, there are almost only possible Shinies. This regional Pokémon effectively pushes those spawns away.
What do you think about this? Are you bothered by Pantimos as well, or do you find the spawns acceptable?
The new Raid bosses in the event are actually better, as they bring back 2 fan-favorites:
It seems that Destiny 2 will soon apparently receive numerous Masterwork catalysts for its Year 2 weapon exotics. This is something that very few fans expected.
This has now been discovered in the game data: The new Update 2.2.2 not only introduced the weapon Perfected Outbreak into the game. After the new patch, savvy fans discovered numerous new Masterwork catalysts in the game data. It looks like you’ll soon be able to empower a variety of exotic weapons from Year 2.
What are Masterwork catalysts anyway? With these items, you can upgrade certain exotic weapons to a Masterwork. Essentially, this means you enhance the respective weapon, making it stronger and more powerful. In a Masterwork version, certain stats are improved or even additional perks are unlocked for the respective gun.
Which exotic catalysts are new now? A total of 21 new Masterwork catalysts have been discovered in the data of Destiny 2. For some of them, the effects have already been partially read out. However, these should be taken with caution, according to the user who stumbled upon the entries. For others, only the names are known.
The effects were already listed for these 9 catalysts:
This is what the Guardians are speculating about: With the exception of Perfected Outbreak, these catalysts have only appeared in the game data so far. It is currently unclear when and how the remaining new catalysts will actually find their way into the game.
The Thunderlord with Ornament
Some Guardians speculate that they could make their way into Destiny 2 as part of Season 7. Some believe that a few of them could already be made available in advance for the new season and then released piecemeal.
However, these are merely fan theories. There is no concrete information on this. Additionally, some fans warn that Bungie has taken an incredibly long time to introduce already known catalysts into the game.
That’s why very few expected this: Many fans hoped and waited for these catalysts. Yet very few probably truly believed that they would soon emerge in the game.
Indeed, even if Bungie has promised corresponding catalysts for all exotic weapons, there has been no news about this feature for quite some time. Since summer 2018, in principle, there has been radio silence, or no new information.
Nothing has been said about the Masterwork catalysts for Year 2 weapons. Therefore, many fans assumed that this feature was either completely discarded or postponed indefinitely – similar to the Trials of the Nine, which are unlikely to return before Fall 2019.
Did you actually think that Bungie would likely introduce the remaining catalysts in the foreseeable future? When do you think and how will they make their way into the game?
This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
Since its release in China, PUBG (PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds) has had a hard time from the start. Now the mobile version has been removed from the stores. The developers are now sending players to a very similar game, running under the name “Game for Peace” or “Elite Force for Peace”.
What happened? On the Chinese website Weibo (similar to Twitter), PUBG publisher Tencent announced that after more than a year, it has now ended the testing phase of the Chinese PUBG mobile version. The game is no longer available for download there.
As Reuters reports, PUBG Mobile had 70 million daily players in China. Users are now being lured with their gaming progress from PUBG Mobile to a different game that suspiciously looks like PUBG. However, it is much more patriotic.
Tencent states, “the game pays tribute to the blue warriors of the sky, who protect our country’s airspace.” This refers to the Chinese Air Force. The game translates to something like “Game for Peace.”
Why did Tencent do this? With the release of PUBG, there were already issues in China. The game had to be adapted to socialist core values initially. There was too much violence in the matches. Since the game particularly attracts teenagers, it was said to convey healthy and positive values for them. Classic shooter games with raw violence are not well-received there.
By thanking the Chinese Air Force with Game for Peace now, these are presumably positive values. Now Tencent wants to lure PUBG Mobile players to Game for Peace. You basically continue to play the same game, just “adapted.” And with this game, Tencent can also earn money in China.
This is how the censored PUBG is now different: They have apparently also taken care of the violence. As PCGamesN reports, users explain that the tactical shooter looks similar to PUBG, but is now “very socialist”.
One even writes that the violence has been significantly reduced. Injured players do not bleed. Defeated players wave goodbye instead of lying on the ground. Afterwards, they simply disappear.
This player waves goodbye after being “defeated” with an assault rifle. Moments later, he simply disappears.

In Fortnite: Battle Royale has now revealed the 3rd and possibly last teaser for Season 9. This time, there is once again a kind of graffiti artist to be seen, and the word Neo appears along with a clear hint at the return of Tilted Towers.
What does the 3rd teaser for Season 9 show? Recently, the third teaser for the upcoming 9th Season of Fortnite was shown on Twitter. You can see the following things:
A guy with goggles, headphones, a cap, and a hoodie. He looks a bit like a mix between a DJ and a graffiti artist. This is likely another skin from the new Battle Pass.
The title this time is “the Future is Tilted”, which sort of means “The Future is tilted” but likely refers to the future of Tilted Towers.
The letter “O” is prominently visible.

What do the letters mean? By now, we have three letters that in chronological order make up the word “Neo”. If today’s teaser is the last one, then the word is likely really Neo, which in Ancient Greek means “new”, but also “fresh”, “young”, or “revolutionary”.
Many fans believe that it refers to significant changes on the map. Or maybe even a completely new map that replaces the old one or exists as an alternative.
However, there could be a fourth teaser tomorrow, on May 9th. In that case, the only sensible word would probably be Neon. However, Epic has not released any teasers on the day of the season start. Therefore, Neon seems rather unlikely.
What is the significance of Tilted Towers? However, the sentence “The Future is Tilted” argues against a new map and for a proper redesign of the old map. Because many fans interpret from this that Tilted Towers, which was completely destroyed last, will be replaced by a futuristic new version. There have already been fan arts depicting such a “Sci-Fi Tilted”.

ZeniMax, the makers of The Elder Scrolls
Online, are reportedly working on a new AAA title with new IP, according to studio head Matt Firor. They are looking to hire a lot of new employees.
What did Matt Firor say? In an interview with Official Xbox Magazine, ZeniMax studio head Matt Firor also mentioned a small detail that many had overlooked.
They are indeed looking for a lot of new employees to work on a new game. It is supposed to be a new AAA game, which will also cater to a new IP. So it probably has nothing to do with one of the franchises already known from ZeniMax/Bethesda.
Producer Matt Firor.
What kind of developers are being sought? On the ZeniMax website, they are indeed looking to hire a lot of new people. Over 40 positions are being advertised, including:
3D Environment Artist
Backend Engineer
Content Designer
Gameplay Engineer
Lead UX Designer
Live Services Manager
Mobile Community Manager
Mobile UI Designer
Senior Mobile Product Manager
Mobile game or MMO?
Matt Firor explains that it will be a AAA title with a new engine. This indicates a substantial budget. On the other hand, some fans suspect (and fear) that it could be a mobile game. After all, they are specifically looking for Mobile Community Managers and Mobile UI Designers.
That’s why it might not be a mobile game: Although AAA titles can also be mobile games, many players associate the term more with large titles for PC and consoles.
Since only three specific mobile employees are being sought, this could be a completely different project. Perhaps an additional, new mobile game or a companion app.
It is also suggested that among the developer positions, the “New AAA game from ZeniMax” is specifically mentioned. There is no mention of that in the mobile positions. The UI Designer only states, “Develop intuitive and entertaining interfaces for mobile titles.”
Will there be ESO 2? This can actually be ruled out. For one, Matt Firor clearly stated that it is supposed to be a new IP, which means a new game universe. In an interview with MeinMMO, ZeniMax had already mentioned that they would not continue ESO, but rather move on.
Nevertheless, many fans fear that ZeniMax will treat the old game poorly with the release of a new MMO.
What will the new game be then? Since ZeniMax has only developed ESO, i.e., an MMORPG, many fans suspect that they will continue in this genre. However, since it is supposed to be a new IP, it is unlikely to be an MMO related to Fallout, Doom, Elder Scrolls, or Wolfenstein.
However, a MMO spin-off of Starfield, the new sci-fi RPG IP from Bethesda, is possible. The game is currently in development at Bethesda, and perhaps ZeniMax is also working on a game in that universe.
On the other hand, ZeniMax could also be working on a loot shooter or a pure single-player title. We might learn more about ZeniMax’s new game by E3.
What do you think is currently in the works at the ESO developers?
