In a dark new anime, people are thrown away like trash – and it could become the hit of the summer

Ody Ody Reading time 2 minutes

In the world of Gachiakuta, a new anime on Crunchyroll, people are classified into two categories: The protagonist Rudo ends up in the one that is thrown away like “garbage.” The reactions to the new trailer suggest that there is a real summer hit waiting for us.

What kind of anime is it? Gachiakuta is a new anime series based on a manga by Kei Urana. The main character is a boy named Rudo, who has been ostracized by society and is therefore very, very angry.

The anime starts on July 6, 2025, on Crunchyroll. This is revealed by a new trailer that the streaming service uploaded to YouTube. You can watch the trailer here:

Gachiakuta: The new trailer for the anime series on Crunchyroll

Here comes the garbage man

What is Gachiakuta about? In Germany, the manga series has the subtitle “Thrown Away Like Trash”, which captures the essence of the story very well.

  • The world of Gachiakuta is a two-class society: The rich live in abundance while the outcasts live in poverty in the filthy slums.
  • The boy Rudo is the son of a notorious criminal and is treated as an outcast by the wealthy society as his descendant.
  • One day he is sentenced for a murder he did not commit. Consequently, he is thrown down the abyss along with the rest of the garbage.

At the bottom of the abyss, other outcasts are waiting. However, from the garbage that the rich have carelessly thrown into the abyss, dangerous garbage monsters have also emerged. The answer of the people to this danger is the so-called “Cleaners” – garbage men. Their task is to fight the garbage monsters.

Among the Cleaners are also people with special abilities: Those who can bring objects to life and unleash their powers. They are called “Givers,” and Rudo is one of them.

Fans are ecstatic about the trailer

The anime has definite hit potential: It is produced by Studio Bones, which has also produced anime series like Fullmetal Alchemist and My Hero Academia. Looking at the fans’ reactions, we can expect a very good adaptation of the manga.

The comments under the trailer on YouTube are overwhelmingly positive:

  • “the opening sounds 100x better than i could have imagined” (corndoguzi6504)
  • “THIS ADAPTATION LOOKS EXACTLY AS I IMAGINED IT, THANKS STUDIO BONES” (RocciaMammaMiaFan)
  • “THE OPENING IS SOOO FIREEE BRUHHHHH” (souloet)
  • “Cleaners, are you all ready for JULY SIXTH?! IM SO HYPED” (GaussTheWarframe)

Succatag67789 is sure: “If lord of mysteries doesn’t take over the summer, then this definitely will” Let’s just hope that the anime series lives up to the heightened expectations.

Path of Exile brings mercenaries for the new season, who can play better than you themselves

Cedric Holmeier Cedric Holmeier Reading time 2 minutes

The developers of Path of Exile have announced their new season after eleven months of waiting and are now showing how new companions will change a lot.

What have the developers announced? On June 13, 2025, at 10:00 PM, the new season of Path of Exile (1) starts. The developers have revealed the new features in their livestream and showcased the season mechanics.

Every season of Path of Exile brings a new mechanic into the game, this time it is the new mercenaries that could change the ARPG as much as few things before.

Here you can see the trailer for the new season:

Mercenaries as Friends and Foes

What is the deal with the mercenaries? The mercenaries are coming as a new mechanic to Path of Exile. They will be found as random encounters on the maps and will initially talk to the player as NPCs. In the conversation, you can then see the equipment, role, and skills of the character.

There are three ways to interact with the mercenaries:

  • Hire: You pay the mercenary gold for their services, and they will become a constant companion. You can also give items to the mercenary to improve them. If a mercenary dies, you can resurrect them for gold.
  • Duel: If you want to take the good items that the mercenary carries, you can challenge them to a duel. If you win, you will receive some of the mercenary’s items as a reward.
  • Exile: If you frequently encounter the same useless mercenary, you can also expel them. This requires winning another duel.

How good are the mercenaries? The mercenaries are formidable companions or foes who truly pack a punch. They utilize enhanced skills, carry unique items, and their other equipment also has good bonuses that fit the character.

They can carry unique items that are not found anywhere else and can only be obtained by the player if they emerge victorious in duels. Due to their good gear, improved abilities, and better movement patterns, they can play at a higher level than the player character currently does.

As companions, they can change and enhance entire builds with their appearance. Here the developers suggest, for example, that players choose a strong tank as a partner for an archer who keeps the enemies at bay (via YouTube).

Player saves for months for a graphics card for 2,000 euros on Amazon – Instead receives 2 bags of rice and pasta

Benedikt Schlotmann Benedikt Schlotmann Reading time 2 minutes

A player ordered a graphics card on Amazon, but instead, he received rice and noodles. He fears that Amazon will not take his return seriously. He is not the first person to receive fake products on Amazon.

What did the player do? The user Ok-Atmosphere7655 explained on Reddit that he had saved for months for an RTX 5090. He has a very large monitor from Samsung and explained that he needed such a high-end graphics card because of it.

Finally, he ordered his RTX 5090 on Amazon in the Netherlands. He ordered from Amazon because the graphics card was available there at the lowest price. But that turned out to be a disastrous mistake.

Rice, noodles, and an ancient graphics card

What did the player receive? Amazon did deliver the official box of the RTX 5090, but inside was not an RTX 5090; instead, there was rice, noodles, and an ancient graphics card. He could not believe it and explained that he contacted Amazon directly. He fears that Amazon will not really take him seriously.

Of course, I immediately got in touch with Amazon. They made me wait several days, and finally, I was asked to take a series of photos, which I did. They then asked me to return the package to Amazon so they can check the order, but I have this terrible feeling in my stomach that they will not take this seriously.

Ok-Atmosphere7655 added: He has purchased from Amazon many times and also ordered his expensive monitor for 2,000 euros there, and usually everything has gone well, “but you only need to get the short end of the stick once to end up being seriously screwed. I have no idea how this could even happen, and I just want to wake up from this nightmare.”

What happens next? The player explained that he has to return the package with the noodles, rice, and graphics card back to Amazon, who want to look into the incident.

Scams and fraud with PC hardware are becoming more common on Amazon

What is the problem with such fraud? At first glance, the purchased product and the seller appear reliable. Like in this case, where the graphics card was delivered in the original box.

The exchange in the box is often only noticed by the next buyer if Amazon does not personally check the product’s content. Other scammers use different tricks and try to lure the buyer away from Amazon.

Can you protect yourself against this? Many people now recommend making a video when unpacking particularly expensive hardware:

  • If you then hold fake goods or a wrong product in your hands, you at least have the proof on your side. Otherwise, Amazon may accuse you of having packed the rice into the box yourself.
  • Furthermore, you can prove that you did not swap the goods, but that someone else must have handled the package before you.

However, such evidence does not always help, as a story of a family father shows. For he also received a wrong GPU on Amazon, yet Amazon refused a refund: Gamer buys graphics card on Amazon, receives fake product – seller refuses refund until return of the “correct” item

A boss in Elden Ring: Nightreign is super obvious, brings great loot – but hardly anyone does him

Alexander Mehrwald Alexander Mehrwald Reading time 2 minutes

In Elden Ring: Nightreign it is all about the bosses. However, most players avoid one of them – for the simple reason that they cannot find the way, even though it can be seen from a distance.

Which boss is it about? You will predominantly find them in the middle of your map, unless you have activated shifted earth modifications: the castle, with all its secrets and its obvious boss, who causes havoc on the top level.

Over time, the circle in which players can move unharmed becomes smaller and often ends near the castle, so you inevitably get closer to it during the expedition, making it actually worthwhile towards the end. Meanwhile, the boss is always very visible on his tower – you would only have to reach him to snag the valuable loot and upgrades.

Nonetheless, many players avoid this boss, not because he isn’t generally worth it, but because the way to him is anything but easy and they do not want to invest the time. A player on Reddit now shows a simple trick that saves a lot of time and could possibly change that.

To the boss in under 1 minute

What trick does the player show? User Aphod shows in his thread on Reddit a way to not only easily get to the highest levels of the bug but also avoid a bunch of enemies that would otherwise waste valuable time.

In his video, he shows how you can easily climb up the walls and jump to reach the boss in under a minute without wasting time on small enemies.

To start your ascent, you need to run to the back of the castle where the gate is closed. Then look to the left, where you should see a pile of stones and climb through a broken wall into one of the higher floors.

There you won’t go further, but jump and reach for the ledge above you. Then keep climbing until you reach the corner to the west where you find another broken wall.

This also works in other places, for example at the ledge near the vendor. You will always find it in the same spot. You just have to climb to the east instead of to the west.

“I have literally never been up there because I have never found the way.”

What does the community say about the trick? Fans under his post are grateful for his tip and admit that they have mostly avoided the boss so far because the way seemed too awkward and unclear or they simply did not find it:

  • IceCreamYouScream92 comments: “I have literally never been up there because I have never found the way.”
  • _scroog3D writes: “I have spent more time looking for a way up than defeating the bosses there.”
  • ECTXGK thanks: “THANK YOU!! Ugh, I keep getting stuck outside and don’t know where the guys are.”

Many also note that the castle is definitely worth it in general, as there is also a boss on the lower level that grants you access to guaranteed useful talismans. So you can hit two birds with one stone.

With this trick, you can definitely feel a bit like Spider-Man and quickly scale the castle to face the boss. Another player recently showcased his build for the Wylder that also makes you feel like Spider-Man: Player shows strong build for one of the best classes in Elden Ring: Nightreign, lets you swing through the map like Spider-Man

Player wants to worship Lilith from Diablo 4, but fans explain: She’s not that nice at all

Christos Tsogos Christos Tsogos Reading time 2 minutes

In Diablo 4 the main antagonist is Lilith, the Mother of Sanctuary. Those who have completed the story will notice just how evil this demon truly is, yet one fan has fallen for her tricks: he even wants to worship her.

What is the deal with Lilith? Lilith is the daughter of Mephisto and the central antagonist in the main story of Diablo 4. As you walk through Sanctuary, you quickly notice how Lilith’s influence bears fruit. She is known for manipulating people and twisting their minds.

As an outsider, you might quickly recognize how wrong what Lilith is doing is – or so you would think. Unfortunately, there are players who are convinced by Lilith and even take her side, like user Aggressive-Bite-2291 on Reddit.

He is fully convinced that Lilith is the good one, while the protagonist takes on the role of the evil one. Fortunately, other players chimed in on the topic, bringing the Reddit user back down to earth and showing him that he was just as seduced as the majority of Sanctuary.

Lilith excels at one thing: manipulation

What does the community say about the fan? They have wondered if Aggressive-Bite-2291 has played the story, as there is a scene from the game that underscores just how evil the mother truly is. The village of Nevesk is the best example. The residents turn into a cult of murderers upon Lilith’s arrival for no reason and kill their priest out of pure joy.

Another reason for her malicious nature is her ideology. For her, there is no good or evil, only those who are powerful enough. Those who have power can dominate. Disciple_of_Erebos compares this in the comments to Lord Voldemort from Harry Potter. He shares the same view as Lilith, only the subtle difference is that Lilith exudes “goth dommy mommy” vibes, while Voldemort is a creepy snake man.

What can mislead many fans is Lilith’s intention to end the endless war between angels and demons. That seems heroic, but for Lilith, any means are justified to achieve this goal, and that can be, as Reddit user Solonotix describes it, “amoral, if not outright immoral.”

Twitch streamer achieves a very special achievement in Riot games, but they reward him only 2 years later with a skin in LoL

Niko Hernes Niko Hernes Reading time 2 minutes

League of Legends is not an easy game, especially when you want to reach the highest rank. A streamer wanted not only to achieve that. He managed to reach the highest rank in every online game by Riot and was quite well rewarded in LoL for it.

Which games are involved? On April 17, Twitch streamer Rohangod posted on x.com that he has reached the highest rank in every online game by Riot. These include:

  • Challenger in League of Legends
  • Challenger in Teamfight Tactics
  • Radiant in Valorant
  • Master in Legends of Runeterra
  • Challenger in Wild Rift

At that time, he ironically asked for a medal or for a Riot buddy for his girlfriend. This is a special talisman in Valorant that you can only get from a Riot employee. Now, 2 years later, he was rewarded again for his performance. He received one of the rarest skins in the game for his LoL account.

Streamer receives a skin that had to be earned 13 years ago

What did the Twitch streamer receive? After another streamer, Drututt, was rewarded with the rare skin Silver Kayle for completing a challenge, RohanGod reposted his achievement from 2023 and asked for the “Worlds 2012” Riven skin.

This is a rare skin that could be purchased in 2012 during Season 2. Otherwise, the skin cannot be unlocked regularly, not even through loot chests. The biggest difference to the Reignited Worlds 2012-skin is a crown that you have while playing.

As RohanGod posted on x.com on June 4, 2025, he actually received the skin from Riot. He is extremely happy about it, especially because he wanted the skin since he was 13.

Why is the achievement so remarkable? Back in 2023, it was tough to reach the highest rank in just one of the games, but doing it in all of them is an achievement that only very few players would accomplish. This is mainly due to the radically different genres. 2 MOBAs, a shooter, a card game, and an auto-battler require different skills, strategies, and training. Time is also an extreme factor.

In 2023, he also ranked the games by difficulty and arrived at this ranking:

  1. LoL is the hardest game by Riot
  2. Teamfight Tactics
  3. Valorant and Wild Rift are on the same level
  4. He found it easiest to reach the highest rank in Legends of Runeterra

If you want to at least have the Reignited Worlds 2012-skin, you can acquire it every year during the Worlds.

A player senses his chance for big loot in Dune: Awakening, walks straight into a nasty trap laid by the developers

Cedric Holmeier Cedric Holmeier Reading time 2 minutes

A player apparently heard a loud bang in Dune: Awakening and set out to loot a spaceship that was just crashing. But he did not expect a nasty trap from the developers.

What did the player want to loot? In Dune: Awakening, loud bangs happen rarely. This always occurs when a spaceship crashes and falls from the sky. This bang is so loud that it can be clearly heard by players all around, and it gives every player the chance to spot good loot.

Exactly such a big loot was what a player wanted to loot on Reddit. User XirtCS made his way to such a burning wreck with his sandbike and unknowingly walked into a nasty trap set by the developers.

Here you can find out which class you should choose in Dune: Awakening:

Start video
Dune: Awakening – Welche Klasse ist zum Start am stärksten?

A loud bang also attracts worms

What kind of trap was that? A loud bang and a burning wreck promise a lot of loot, but such an event also attracts the sandworms, who are already waiting for their prey. The player on Reddit had to realize this, as soon as he gets off his sandbike, the worm gauge in the HUD lights up bright red.

No sooner had he dismounted from the bike and with the cutting tool in hand, the player runs to the crashed spaceship and immediately gets to work. He tears open the outer hull and loots the items from the ship’s cargo hold. Meanwhile, the worm threat gauge reaches its peak.

With the loot in his pockets, the player makes his way back, but a large sandworm has already taken up the chase. Just before he reaches a safe rocky area, he sees the worm approaching.

At the last second, the player manages to escape to safety, while the worm rises from the ground only a few meters away from him. He narrowly escaped the worm and kept his loot, because whoever gets eaten by the worm loses everything.

Here you can see the moment as a video:

Was that just coincidence? No, the shipwrecks are meant to consciously attract players by promising good items and loot. But as good as the loot is, the danger from sandworms is meant to be just as high in this case. However, the developers do not explain this mechanic, which can make a crashed spaceship quickly turn into a nasty trap. The loud bang attracts all creatures from Arrakis, not just the players.

Nintendo Switch 2 Expand Storage: Is Buying a Memory Card Worth It?

Benedikt Schlotmann Benedikt Schlotmann Reading time 2 minutes

The Nintendo Switch 2 has a large internal memory. But is it worth buying a memory card for the Switch 2? MeinMMO explains for whom the purchase is worthwhile and for whom it is not.

How much storage does the Switch 2 have? The Nintendo Switch 2 comes with 256 GB of internal storage, part of which is occupied by the operating system of the Switch 2. Nevertheless, the Switch 2 has significantly more storage than its predecessors: The Switch offered only 32 GB, the OLED variant at least 64 GB.

But is 256 GB of storage enough at launch, or should one consider buying a memory card? MeinMMO explains whether the upgrade is worth it.

New games require a lot of space on the Switch 2, while indie games do not

How large are games on the Switch 2? In particular, well-known AAA titles have very high storage requirements: Games with very high storage needs on the Switch 2 include Split Fiction, Cyberpunk 2077, or No Man’s Sky. If you want to install many such games, you will quickly reach your storage limit and need an additional memory card.

Many indie titles, on the other hand, are significantly smaller and require little storage space. Physical games also require little storage space, as only the updates are stored in the system memory.

Current game sizes on the Switch 2:

  • Split Fiction: 69.2 GB
  • Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition: 59 GB
  • Mario Kart World: 21.9
  • No Man’s Sky 24.9 GB
  • Witcher 3 26.6 GB
  • Pokémon Shield: 12.4 GB
  • Animal Crossing New Horizons: 10.7 GB

Furthermore, you should keep in mind: Even unreleased titles such as Madden NFL 26 (Release: August 2025) are estimated to require 30 to 50 GB of storage space.

Switch 2: Should you buy a memory card?

For whom is the purchase of a memory card for the Switch 2 worthwhile?

  • If you want to play many AAA titles that require a lot of space right at release, we would advise you to buy a memory card.
  • If you mostly have your games digitally and rely on the internal storage. Here, a memory card is also recommended.
  • With an additional memory card, you are future-proof, as new Switch 2 titles are expected to require a lot of space.

For whom is the purchase of a memory card not worthwhile?

  • If you play Mario Kart World, the Zelda games, and at most one Pokémon game, the internal storage of your Switch 2 should be sufficient.
  • For casual gamers or users who primarily buy physical games, the internal storage is usually sufficient as only updates and save data are stored in the system memory.

The Nintendo Switch 2 will launch worldwide on June 5, 2025. To ensure a smooth start with the console, you can find here a collection of all important guides for the Nintendo Switch 2 at MeinMMO: Nintendo Switch 2 Guides: All tips and tricks at a glance

WoW: A screenshot impressively shows how complex the game has become

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

A tooltip that spans over 50 lines – for a single spell in World of Warcraft. It is that complex when considering all the factors.

“World of Warcraft is so easy” and other exclamations are often heard in discussions on the internet about which game is complex and difficult or which is easy. The number of confusing game content that can overwhelm newcomers is often overlooked by long-time veterans. Because we believe: WoW is too hard for newcomers.

Especially the revamped talent system in the “Dragonflight” expansion is now quite complex and influences abilities in various ways. A player has now demonstrated how complex this is on the WoW subreddit.

Start video
Older lady lives our dream and plays WoW until 5 a.m.

What was shown? Myrsephone wanted to engage a little with the monk and learn this class. But that proves to be quite difficult. He shows a screenshot with the tooltip of the ability “Eveloping Mist” (“Enveloping Mist”), and one wouldn’t be surprised by how large this tooltip is – because it stretches across almost the entire screen.

This is because Myrsephone had all talents displayed that interact in any way with “Enveloping Mist”. You can see the result best here:

How can you see this so precisely? In order for a tooltip to display all this information, one must download an addon. “Advanced Tooltips” provides the option to list all talents and abilities that affect the precise functionality of an ability. This can result in over 12 individual tooltips with over 50 lines of text all describing how a single ability works.

The community notes that there are some classes where so many talents affect the same abilities that one actually has to keep a book to remember all functionalities or to understand how exactly the damage or healing of a spell combines.

For those who are completely lost with this complexity, Blizzard already has a solution. Because when the next patch of World of Warcraft goes live in a few weeks, there will be the “1-button rotation” – then you will only need to press one button!

A well-known speaker from Baldur’s Gate 3 also plays an important role in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 – developers immediately knew she was the right choice

Alexander Mehrwald Alexander Mehrwald Reading time 2 minutes

A popular voice from Baldur’s Gate 3 can also be heard in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 in a leading role. For the devs, she was the right choice within seconds.

Which voice actress is it? Jennifer English is far from a stranger in the circles of voice actors and is known for her roles in Elden Ring as Latenna and as Leya in Divinity: Original Sin II.

She is especially famous for her role as Shadowheart in Baldur’s Gate 3 and has since been deeply rooted in the hearts of many fans. There, she not only learned to love her competition, but also gave her voice a larger platform.

All the more entertaining is the fact that English came to her role in the celebrated role-playing game Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, as the developers apparently did not recognize her during auditions, as the voice actress explains in a livestream via YouTube.

Start video

“They didn’t know our names”

Whom does Jennifer English voice in Clair Obscur? So English got the role of Maelle, a 16-year-old who accompanies the Expedition 33 on her arduous journey against the painter and is thus one of the main characters of the game.

How did she get the role in Clair Obscur? To find suitable voice actors for their characters, Sandfall Interactive used so-called “blind auditions”. Accordingly, the studio received numerous voice samples and decided solely based on the sound of the voice. They had neither names nor pictures or resumes of the applicants.

Jennifer English is sure that the devs played Baldur’s Gate 3, but still did not recognize her. They were all the more surprised when they found out whom they had cast. Jennifer Svedberg-Yen, the narrative director of Clair Obscur, merely told her that she would have known within seconds that she was the right one.

It was similar with another well-known colleague you might also know from other games.

Who plays online games can also meet the Danish police on Twitch

Johanna Johanna Reading time 2 minutes

In Denmark, not only gamers are streaming live on Twitch, but also the Danish police. This way, they provide insight into their professional lives and aim to create proximity between the police and the people. MeinMMO presents the Twitch channel.

What kind of channel is this? The Twitch channel PolitietsOnlinePatrulje is operated by the Danish police. They already have over 33,400 followers and had an average of 92 viewers last year (via SullyGnome).

In our video, we introduce you to the 5 most relevant Twitch streamers in the German area:

Police maintains presence on the Internet

These are the contents of the police officers: The police officers play various games every Wednesday from 5:30 PM to 9:30 PM. Mainly, however, Counter-Strike 2, Fortnite, Minecraft, EA Sports FC 24, and Call of Duty: Warzone. The police officers play video games and simultaneously raise awareness about the dangers on the Internet and how they plan to address them.

In their channel trailer on Twitch, the police officers explain that they want to reach children and adolescents through their content where they are, and that includes Twitch.

Above all, they want to raise awareness about Internet dangers such as grooming, illegal image dissemination, and online fraud.

Other motives are the following:

  • They want to have an open dialogue with the viewers and share preventive measures.
  • The police aim to present themselves both professionally and relaxed while gaming.
  • Through their work on the Twitch channel, they want to strengthen the bond between the police and the citizens.
  • They also provide a way to report offenses on the Internet directly.

Also on YouTube and Instagram, the police officers are active. The accounts of the same name provide further insights into the work of the police. Here, too, they address the same topics as on Twitch, but without the gaming.

Before a defeat in Dune: Awakening, you should be particularly cautious, as it is deadlier than the others

Johanna Johanna Reading time 2 minutes

In Dune: Awakening you can meet your end in various ways. However, you should really avoid one scenario. And not just because they can eat you.

What defeat is that? There are several ways to die in Dune: Awakening. Of course, none of them are pleasant, but one stands out in particular: death by sandworms.

The monsters roam beneath the sand and hear your footsteps as soon as you step on it. If you are too loud, they will burrow up to you and swallow you.

Here you can get a first glimpse into the new survival MMO:

Start video
Dune: Awakening presents in the new trailer the desert world of Arrakis

Sandworms swallow you along with your inventory

Why is dying by sandworms worse? If a sandworm swallows you, you must respawn, but you will have empty pockets. This is because dying by a sandworm differs in terms of your belongings.

If you die to a sandworm, all your inventory is gone and you have no way to get your items back; there is no spawn point for your remaining inventory or even a part of it. This also includes your armor, your weapons, and other equipment.

If you are killed in another scenario in a PvE fight, you drop some of your items and can retrieve them later. If you are in a fight against other players and die, you also lose items that can be looted by other players.

In these two scenarios, while you lose your items, you can still keep your equipment, even if it loses some of its durability. By the way, if you are in a vehicle and get eaten by a worm, your means of transportation is also gone.

The only thing you get from dying by a sandworm: a worm tooth, which you can use to craft a knife.

Players receive defective Nintendo Switch 2 because the dealer made a mistake on the receipt

Alexander Mehrwald Alexander Mehrwald Reading time 2 minutes

The Switch 2 is celebrating its release day and many fans can finally hold their highly anticipated console in their hands. But for some players, the excitement was quickly dampened when they unpacked their packages. Because in the box is a broken console, and the culprit is the receipt.

What are the disappointed players reporting? On X there are numerous posts where players vent their frustrations. They have received consoles that have a damaged display – all with a very similar problem.

Because on the display of their Switch 2, each has two small holes that are still clearly visible even when the screen is on. These holes can be found on the box and the thin plastic bag in which the console is packaged for sale.

This is particularly frustrating, as the Switch 2 is sold out in many regions and cannot be reordered quickly. The consoles that report such a defect come from the United States of America and were sold there by GameStop.

You can see what is included in the Switch 2 package in our unboxing video:

Start video
Wir packen die Switch 2 aus: Das ist im Karton

Display instead of just receipt stapled

How did the holes get into the screen? Comparing the posts of the upset players, it becomes clear that these holes are exactly where GameStop stapled their receipts directly onto the original box. This box seems to be so thin that the staples went right through the box and the plastic bag into the display.

The fans are understandably upset and share their experience on social media. On one hand, because they consider GameStop’s handling of the console thoughtless, but on the other hand, they also wonder how such an expensive console can be packaged so thinly that staples can cause such damage:

  • So @AncientArgonaut writes via X: ‘I knew this would happen – it was a strange decision by Nintendo to place the screen with the front side at the top of the box and only protect it with the thin box.’
  • ‘GameStop stapled the receipt for the Switch 2 to the box for me and my friends. FML,’ posts @Oadhan via X, ‘Really crazy, now I have to wait 3 months for the replacement.’
  • Konflick writes in his now-deleted Reddit post: ‘It seems like the same thing happened to all of them with their boxes. Over 100 people were there tonight.’
@Oadhan via X.com (As of June 5, 2025, 6:00 PM)

So far, GameStop has not commented on these incidents, but it is likely that affected individuals will receive a replacement console. Although it is uncertain whether this will be possible promptly due to high demand.

Dune: Awakening will soon let its fans play on the servers, but before players decide to purchase, they want to know what the critics have to say about the game on Metacritic. When you can expect the first reviews, you can find out here.

When can you expect reviews? Currently, there are no reviews on Metacritic. Neither fans nor critics were allowed to play the game beforehand. It will ultimately result in the first opinions about the MMO appearing during the Early Access on June 5 at 16:00.

However, expect some delays as players will need to test the game for a few hours before forming a well-founded opinion about it.

Opinions from the Beta: How Good is Dune Awakening?

Our MeinMMO author Cedric Holmeier was allowed to play the beta of Dune Awakening and report on what the game has to offer you. For him, the game was fun. There is plenty to loot, many dangers lurking, and overall, the game feels like a relaxed MMO. Regarding the MMORPG aspect, our expert is skeptical. For hardcore PvP and PvE players, the game might not be suitable; the focus is more on collecting items, trading, and housing.

Also, IGN initially reports positively about the game. Dune Awakening is especially fun in co-op, as you can loot strategically together and fight enemies. The game also places a high value on immersion, which is why water is considered one of the most important resources. One of the things that IGN criticizes, however, are bugs and performance issues that the team needs to iron out before the release.

Lastly, TooMuchGaming also reports on their first impressions. For them, the combat system feels too repetitive. It always comes down to the same situations where ranged fighters have to face melee fighters. Additionally, the character development feels too superficial. You can level various skills, but they didn’t leave a significant impression. What they praise, however, is the base building and the start into the MMO.

The most beautiful new MMORPG 2025 is inspired by a famous horror movie, destroying the lovely Middle Ages with extraterrestrial attackers

Cedric Holmeier Cedric Holmeier Reading time 2 minutes

The new MMORPG Chrono Odyssey aims to distinguish itself from existing genre representatives. For this, the developers have drawn unusual inspiration.

What kind of game is it? Chrono Odyssey is an ambitious open-world action MMORPG by developer Chrono Studio and publisher Kakao Games, set to be released in 2025 for PC and consoles. It promises a seamless game world without loading screens, where dynamic events are meant to challenge players.

The core of the game is the “Chronotector”, a tool for time manipulation that plays a central role in both combat and navigation through the world. Visually, Chrono Odyssey stands out with a mix of dark fantasy and harmonious medieval aesthetics, aiming to create a unique yet tense atmosphere.

The action combat system is inspired by Soulslikes, emphasizing precision and the flexible use of 18 weapons divided into 6 classes. The game offers a blend of solo and group content, including dungeons and world bosses, and integrates a PvPvE system where PvP can be disabled outside certain zones. The developers also emphasize that there will be no pay-to-win elements and a global release without regional differences is planned.

Here you can watch the trailer for the game:

Start video
Chrono Odyssey: Trailer prepares you for the beta in June

SciFi horror instead of a lovely medieval setting

How does Chrono Odyssey differ? The new MMORPG draws its inspiration neither from elves nor dwarves. Instead, the developers want to destroy a peaceful medieval world with alien invaders.

The optics and setting of the MMORPG have therefore been strongly shaped by the question, “What would it look like if an alien civilization—like the one portrayed in the film Prometheus—invaded a medieval world?”, as the developers revealed in an interview with MMORPG.com.

There will be a fusion of “dark fantasy” settings with “science fiction” elements. The developers have also drawn inspiration from both Western and Eastern visual traditions to create an interesting medieval aesthetic.

The film Prometheus serves as an important source of inspiration for the unique aesthetics of Chrono Odyssey. The developers have adopted the menacing, dark atmosphere and aim to continually break the MMORPG with new influences from the film. This is evident, for example, in the types of enemies and bosses in the MMORPG.

Twitch streamer NoWay wanted to start in a LoL league at 32, but is now quitting: “It was a mistake in all areas”

Niko Hernes Niko Hernes Reading time 2 minutes

One of the most famous German Twitch streamers in the field of League of Legends is NoWay. In 2025, he played professionally again in the Regional League NLC, but after the next EM he wants to retire. There are also several reasons for this.

What is the current status of NoWay? Frederik NoWay Hinteregger is a German Twitch streamer who primarily plays League of Legends. The former LoL pro announced for 2025 that he wants to play again in the professional field with Team NORD Esports. At 32, he already belongs to the older generation in LoL eSports.

NORD performed quite well in the NLC. They made it to the finals in the Winter and Spring Playoffs, finishing second and qualifying for the EMEA Masters. He will participate in the upcoming EMEA tournament, but after that, he wants to retire.

He cites mainly the effort and energy required, but also the disadvantages as a content creator.

Start video

NoWay will retire again, having learned from the project

What does NoWay say about his NORD ending? In a stream excerpt (via YouTube), he talked about his last six months with NORD. He clarified that he will not continue after the EMEA Masters 2025 Spring. NoWay stated that it has not been positive for him. He also gives several reasons for this:

  • It is exhausting and would ruin his schedule, it just doesn’t fit into his routine
  • In addition, it is a big commitment that takes a lot of energy
  • As a content creator, it also has a disadvantage regarding what he broadcasts

He summarizes the points with: That was a mistake in all areas. But he also sees positively that he now knows he doesn’t want to play semiprofessionally anymore. In a later stream (via YouTube), he specified the arguments again.

NoWay emphasizes once more that being in a professional team requires a lot of work. The scrims (training matches) are not very satisfying, and that is not good content either. The scrims also did not fit into his routine. It is very exhausting, it makes the streams very long and it makes the content very bad.

In the clip, the interpersonal aspects of the players are also addressed. But that is not a problem for NoWay. The team gets along very well, but there is a different approach to how to play LoL.

Following that, he also shows that as a player, you also receive abusive messages. On his x-account, he showed quite abusive messages he received after the match against Los Ratones. According to NoWay, that is normal as a professional player.

Next up is a best-of-3 against Team GK to qualify for the knockout stage. The match takes place on June 6 at 5 PM.

Monster Hunter Wilds advises players to immediately quit the game during a type of quest – fans fear for their accounts

Alexander Mehrwald Alexander Mehrwald Reading time 3 minutes

Capcom is now banning players in Monster Hunter Wilds who do not adhere to their rules and therefore advise to exit the game immediately if there are uncertainties. Fans are worried about their accounts.

Which players does Capcom ban? In the past, Capcom announced that they would take stronger action against mods and cheats that can significantly alter or impair the gameplay experience. They have primarily focused on those players who cheat in leaderboard placements or unlock paid DLC content with mods.

However, they are also starting to punish players who modify content and quests (via X) or access content that has not yet been officially released with mods and access the game data (via X).

Therefore, Capcom expressly advises players that if they even suspect that they are participating in modified content, they should immediately leave the corresponding quest and exit the game without saving (via monsterhunter.com). This way, no mod data would appear in their game data.

Furthermore, they provide on their homepage in a table ways to better recognize such quests. Additionally, it states regarding account bans (via X):

The identification of misconduct is determined by Capcom’s own investigations and detection systems.
We review the game data and activity history before taking strict measures such as account suspension.
Please note that we cannot respond to individual inquiries regarding these enforcement measures.

This statement unsettles many players as they fear that their accounts may be suspended unjustly.

Start video
Monster Hunter Wilds shows its first title update with a new monster

“Honestly, I wouldn’t risk it as it is. It doesn’t seem worth it to me.”

Why are players worried about their accounts? Due to the statement that Capcom cannot answer inquiries regarding suspensions and the clear warning to exit quests immediately if a suspicion arises, the community is asking via Reddit whether they can still use any mods or should only play online with friends.

Many users primarily use cosmetic mods that allow them to adjust minor details, such as using the abilities of the Akuma armor from the collaboration while keeping their hunter’s appearance unchanged (via Reddit). Players seem unclear if such adjustments would fall within the scope of a ban.

Consequently, many players see this approach as a double-edged sword, while others consider it unnecessary:

  • “Honestly, I wouldn’t risk it as it is. It doesn’t seem worth it to me,” writes AtrumRuina in response to a user asking whether his mod could potentially be affected.
  • He additionally writes: “[…] This means that you have no way to defend yourself if you get caught up in something like this, whether it’s because Capcom makes a mistake or because you accidentally join a modified quest. I really don’t like this approach at all.”
  • SerGodHand notes: “Why the hell do people even bother to get some early drip and then go into public lobbies with it?”
  • red_rose23 criticizes: “Wait a minute. Does the ban take away your access to YOUR €70 game? Do you mainly play in single-player mode anyway? If so, what a terrible move. Only losers care about that. Think about the future.”
  • GameJon supports: “A step in the right direction. Any modification that could negatively affect the enjoyment of other players (even if it’s about others wearing armors that they cannot get yet) should have consequences.”

Some players also note that they find this approach from Capcom strange since such drastic bans were rather the exception in previous titles and mods had previously been handled more liberally.
