There are hints of a new Jungle Champion on the PBE servers of League of Legends!
New champions regularly appear in League of Legends, bringing more diversity to the game. These champions are often introduced to fans with small teasers weeks before their release. For Kled, it was “Wanted” posters that were hung up in the LCS studios. The rework of Yorick was announced by the developers with a picture on the social media channels. Now an unknown voice was found in the data of the test servers, which could announce a new Jungle hero.
Which hero is hiding behind the mysterious voice?
The found data includes 13 different sentences, some of which address the monsters in the jungle. As mentioned, this type of teaser would fit Riot Games perfectly and would be a “typical” way to build excitement for a new hero. To give you an idea of what to expect from the hero, here are his 13 discovered sentences:
What a tragedy, he could have become a mountain.
We will miss you, my friend. Each and every one of your warts.
A tragic end for such a noble friend.
Farewell, Krugi. I will miss our long conversations.
Why kill, when you could just ask?
Can I join? Yes? No? I’ll check back later.
Just wait until Blümchen steps in.
Poor Gromp. He was a prince among toads.
How can someone kill a jar? They are such cuddly beings.
In a dance competition, there are only winners.
Next time I expect more feeling and less violence.
Adieu Gromp, or as you would say… “Quack”.
Now you’re jumping up there on lily pads, my friend. Hop Hop Hop – Again and again Hop.

In the video, the voice sounds as if a kind of “tree” is speaking. Perhaps the sentences are also related to Maokai. Listen to the quotes in the video yourself and let us know what ideas you have about the teaser.

In World of Warcraft: Legion, we now have 12 different heroes to choose from, but which one should I play? And for which one should I use my precious level 100 booster? A new feature called class trial helps with hero selection.
Every buyer of Legion gets a free level booster that allows them to level a single hero to level 100. Since additional boosters can only be obtained for real money, one should think carefully about which hero to upgrade. However, newcomers and returning players are often overwhelmed by the selection.
Therefore, Blizzard provides valuable assistance and offers a new feature. In the character creation menu, we can now create a hero as a “class trial.” The character starts at level 100 and directly enters the point where our faction’s airship departs for the Broken Isles to fight the Legion.
From then on, we can play the new hero up to the point where we receive our artifact weapon. After that, the character is still there, but locked until we use a level booster to turn them into a full-fledged hero. By the way, we can also create several such test heroes, as long as there are enough slot spaces available. The trial period until the artifact weapon should be sufficient to try out all potential heroes and hopefully make the right choice for the booster usage.
What do you think of the new feature? Useful or actually unnecessary since all classes in World of Warcraft are quite easy to play anyway? Let us know and write it in the comments! Also, don’t miss our overview page with various guides and topics about Legion as well as our Legion test!

The online game No Man’s Sky is currently being heavily criticized. Too many promises made during the announcement are said to have not been kept.
Now the player and YouTuber TheyCallMeConor took the effort to see how big the planets in the game really are. Sean Murray from Hello Games once mentioned in a video that the planets would have the actual size of real planets. Of course, there can be variations – from moons to gigantic planets that are larger than Earth.
How big are the planets in No Man’s Sky?
However, what TheyCallMeConor has now discovered paints a different picture. The planet he traversed halfway seems to be significantly smaller than Earth. Because it only took him twelve hours to do this. If one were to try to circumnavigate Earth on foot, it would take approximately 10,000 hours. In 5,000 hours, one would have circumnavigated halfway around the equator. It may be that TheyCallMeConor encountered a very small planet and that the running speed compared to the “real” speed in the game is increased. Nevertheless, twelve hours is a significant difference compared to the 5,000 hours it would take to circumnavigate halfway around Earth.
Nonetheless, this experiment also shows that the areas in No Man’s Sky are gigantic. Twelve hours is a figure that only a few other open-world games reach. And this was only half of a planet in a gigantic universe. However, that doesn’t really make up for the fact that most planets are similarly structured and there is hardly anything interesting to discover…

World of Warcraft: Legion has been released and we want to know how the new addon is received by you.
The Burning Legion conquers Azeroth
In a week with such a big release, as has been the case this time, it’s not hard to guess what we want to ask you. World of Warcraft has more or less had our site in a chokehold since last Tuesday, as the demand for news, articles, and guides is high. There hasn’t been any new content in the world of WoW for a long time, but now players are hopping in their thousands across the Broken Isles. But how has the new expansion been received by you? Are you still in the leveling phase or are you already plowing through heroic dungeons?
Cortyn says: After I played the first night relentlessly and wrote my review the next day, my opinion on the new addon should be no secret anymore. I really like the zones, the world quests keep me busy at least for now, and leveling my artifact weapon will surely take at least a few more nights. On top of that, there’s the desire to level more characters to complete the artifact and class quest lines and truly experience all the details of the lore. My overall impression is thus consistently positive.
Even though karma hit me sometimes: After I spent the whole day yesterday completing world quests and managed to finish about 60 of them, I dedicated myself to my class quest line. And what did it want from me? Right. I had to finish 30 world quests to get a little practice. Oh, bad karma…
But enough about me, let’s talk about you! What do you think of the new addon Legion? What do you like particularly well and what can you not agree with at all? Let us know in the comments and join in the discussion.

Today, the arrival of the merchant Xur is planned at Destiny. What does he have on offer from September 2 to September 4?
The last week was quite calm in Bungie’s MMO shooter. However, that will change next week: Update 2.4.0 is coming and brings changes even before the release of “Rise of Iron”. The significance of Sterling treasures will be minimized, the Eververse will be revamped, and the clan system will be shut down for a while to prepare for the new clan feature.
But first, Xur arrives today. Xur is the friendly merchant with the tentacle face, who keeps a great secret around him. He is an agent of the Nine, who sells you cool exotics and the Three of Coins in exchange for Strange Coins. What he does with all the coins and where Xur is when he is not at the Tower or the Reef over the weekend remains mysterious.
With the launch of RoI, Xur’s inventory will change. He will have new exotics, but also ornaments that you can acquire for silver dust.But let’s see what he has today. Today, on September 2.
Everything about Xur in Destiny on September 2, 3, and 4 on PS4 and Xbox One
When does Xur come? When does Xur leave?
Xur appears on September 2 at 11 AM out of nowhere. He will stay in the Tower or at the Vestian Outpost for a while until he begins his return journey on Sunday, September 4, at 11 AM. In the meantime, he shows his inventory to the passing Guardians.
Where is Xur? What is his location this weekend?
Xur has specific locations where he stays over the weekend. This time he is in the Tower in the Hangar. Our friends at ProNDC will lead you there:

A little earlier than planned, Blizzard has deployed the latest patch of Overwatch to the live servers.
The latest patch came unexpectedly
Actually, fans were only expecting the latest patch of Overwatch on September 6, but the developers obviously did not want to keep anyone waiting any longer. Therefore, since last night, all players of the PC version can install the latest patch and dive into the new map Eichenwalde, which is set in Germany (near Stuttgart). We have already explained what to expect in Eichenwalde.
Aside from the new map, the second season of Overwatch has now also begun. This will last for about 10 weeks, giving players enough time to complete their 10 placement matches and earn a rank that will again be rewarded with Competitive Points at the end. In this post, we explain what changes with the second season of Overwatch.
Moreover, there are a variety of new emotes, so almost all characters can now sit or lie down and have a “Laughter” emote. D.Va even received a legendary emote where she shuts down her mech to play video games with it while munching on Doritos and drinking energy drinks – a true gamer.
To let players enjoy the new map Eichenwalde more frequently, the developers have released a special Brawl. For one week, only Eichenwalde can be played as a Brawl, with the additional rule that each hero can only appear once per team. Those who want to explore the German map should dive into this mode now at will – or just rely on luck in Quick and Competitive Play.

A “secret” currency in WoW: Legion is causing a stir. What are the curious coins for and where can they be found?
The vendor Xur’ios wants the curious coins
Just at the start of an expansion, many things in World of Warcraft are still uncertain. One of these mysteries is the “Curious Coins” that have appeared among some players. But what are they actually good for? And how can you best collect them? We will clarify these questions.
The use of the curious coins
The Curious Coins can only be exchanged with a single vendor in Legion. The vendor Xur’ios is located in Dalaran, very close to the monument of Antonidas. However, he has a daily changing assortment. Five items are permanently included in his selection, which includes recipes for Leatherworking, Engineering, Blacksmithing, Enchanting, and Inscription. The recipes cost only one coin each – quite the opposite of what else Xur’ios has to offer.
Every day, Xur’ios additionally has another item for sale, randomly determined. Among them is a War Turtle as a mount and a shoulder enchantment, as well as a toy that temporarily transforms the character into a star creature.
Where to find Curious Coins?
Currently, it is not entirely certain about the drop chances of the Curious Coins. Confirmed sources are as follows:
Bossses from Dungeons (all difficulty levels)
Crates from emissary quests (meta-world quests)
Reward crates from “Mythic+” dungeons
Rare enemies
Treasure chests
Since some rewards cost quite a few coins, it will probably take a long time for players to gather everything from Xur’ios. Definitely nothing that can be collected comfortably in one evening.
For more news and articles about Blizzard’s MMORPG, you can find them on our World of Warcraft game page. We have also prepared some other guides for you:
With the Destiny Update 2.4.0 approaching, it brings changes even before the launch of “Rise of Iron”.
In this week’s “This Week at Bungie”, the weekly letter to the community from DeeJ, the focus is on the near future of the MMO shooter. PAX West is coming up. Bungie is heading to Seattle to meet some Guardians and hold Private Matches, the upcoming feature that allows you to create and play your own PvP games.
A tournament will even be held on-site on Saturday, where some items from the Bungie Store can be won. Unfortunately, if you are not in Seattle, we in Germany (and Austria and Switzerland) will have little access to this.
However, all Guardians worldwide can look forward to a preview of the Private Matches before the launch of RoI. On September 13 at 7 PM, “Major League Gaming” will hold private games via a Twitch livestream. These streamers are set to show you “the true meaning of war” before you can play the Private Matches yourselves. The Supremacy mode will be played in a Best-of-Five matchup.
Update 2.4.0 on PS4 and Xbox One
On September 8, 2016, Guardians on PS4 and Xbox One must download Update 2.4.0. This patch prepares for the launch of “The Rise of Iron”.
Maintenance work will take place that day, and it is expected to last quite a while: from 5 PM to 1 AM. Subsequently, the update will be available for download. For us in Central Europe, it will likely be September 9 when the patch can be downloaded.
With this update, two important changes come:
Preparation for Ingame Clan Roster: With RoI, changes are coming to the clan system. An ingame roster will be displayed. In preparation for this, starting with Update 2.4.0, clan features will be disabled. Your clan name will no longer be displayed in-game. Bungie will contact you before this is reinstated.
Sterling Treasures: After Update 2.4.0, you can only receive one Sterling Treasure per week: By playing the Prison of Elders at level 41.
Furthermore, from September 20, the Eververse will no longer sell Sterling Treasures for Silver. They will be replaced by “Radiant Treasures”, which can contain “Silver Dust” and all new ornaments. (Really all? Some time ago, it was read at GameInformer that some, like the Trials ornaments, can only be earned through specific activities. However, DeeJ refers to all new ornaments).
What do you think of these changes?

An error is currently causing frustration in World of Warcraft. The “Error 132” prevents many from playing. Here’s how to fix the error!
Nothing works in World of Warcraft
… and suddenly nothing works! Almost spontaneously, WoW crashed for thousands of players at the same time, and since then, logging in has been impossible. The culprit is Error 132, which occurs immediately after logging in and sends the game data into oblivion.
Error 132 is particularly frustrating. Many players instinctively try to run the repair process of World of Warcraft, which can be opened in the Battle.net launcher. But even though the Battle.net program calculates happily for up to half an hour, it rarely leads to a solution: The game crashes again on the next login.
Rage doesn’t help! Just delete the cache folder.
How to fix Error 132?
To fix the error, you need to open the installation path of World of Warcraft.
There you will find a number of folders. Open the “Cache” folder.
In the subfolder, you will now find the folders “ADB”, “WDB”, and “wowbrowser”.
Delete all three directories! Don’t worry, WoW will recreate these directories the next time you start it up, and then the data (at least for now) will be correct.
How exactly this error occurred is still unknown. Some players also report that the error reappears as soon as they leave the game and then try to enter again. For now, it seems that deleting the interface folder is also necessary. This is particularly frustrating for all players who rely on interface extensions, as the deleted (or renamed) folders contain important data for the addons. For the time being, everyone will have to play with the standard interface until Blizzard resolves the issue on their end.
Whichpayment model is best for an addon when the actual game is Free2Play? This is what Trion World wants to find out with the MMO RIFT.
The first expansion of the MMORPG was released in 2012 under the title Storm Legion. Those who wanted to play the new content had to purchase the addon. However, it quickly became apparent that this was not well received by all players, and so for the second expansion Nightmare Tide, a new approach was considered. The addon was offered for free, but several microtransactions were introduced. After all, the company had to find a way to finance itself. Creating an addon takes a lot of time and money.
From Buy2Play to Free2Play back to Buy2Play
Over time, it became clear that this was also not well received by players. Many felt disadvantaged because friends could buy certain items and use them right away, while they could not. This led to intense criticism, forcing Trion Worlds to rethink how to offer an addon that generates revenue without upsetting players. Therefore, for the upcoming expansion Starfall Prophecy, it was decided to offer it for a fee again. This decision was made together with the community, which provided a lot of feedback to the developers.
Things are heating up in the new dungeon!
The addon will be offered in the regular version for 39.99 dollars and in the deluxe version with some cosmetic items for 59.99 dollars. This is considered a fair deal. One would pay a one-time fee and then have access to all content. It is believed that even those who usually do not spend money on the game will appreciate this. It is simply a challenge for the team to present everything exactly as the players want it.
In FIFA 17, we have reached the top ten best player ratings. Here are the spots 10 to 4.
Which players have the best ratings in FIFA 17? EA Sports answers this question this week. In recent days, the positions 50 to 11 have been revealed. Today we move into the top ten of the best player ratings.
Player Ratings in FIFA 17, Position 10 to 4
Among the top ten are three players from FC Bayern: Lewandowski, Boateng, and Neuer.
Position 10: David De Gea
De Gea makes a significant leap from 86 to 90. He is the second-best goalkeeper in FIFA 17.
Position 9: Robert Lewandowski
The striker from FC Bayern jumps from 88 to 90. He has already received numerous TOTW and special cards in FIFA 16.
Position 8: Jérôme Boateng
From 87 to 90. Boateng is the best defender in the game!
Position 7: Zlatan Ibrahimović
Although “Ibra” turns 35 this year, he improves by one overall point compared to the previous year.
Position 6: Gareth Bale
In FIFA 16 he had 87, in FIFA 17 he has 90. The winger is putting in the effort!
Position 5: Manuel Neuer
The newly appointed captain of the German national team also improves. From 90 to 92.
Position 4: Luis Suárez
The striker from FC Barcelona narrowly missed the top three. With an overall rating of 92, he secures the fourth place. In FIFA 17, he had 90.
Tomorrow, the best three players in FIFA 17 will be revealed. Which players that will be is already clear by the process of elimination: Neymar, Ronaldo, and Messi. However, it remains exciting to see what their ratings will be.
In Suramar, the end zone of WoW: Legion, there is a lot of Ancient Mana. We reveal what you can do with it.
Food for the Nightborne
Once you reach level 110 in World of Warcraft: Legion and set off for Suramar, you will find Ancient Mana at every corner. This is stored under “Currencies” in the character menu. But what is the purpose of Ancient Mana? We reveal the benefits of the bundled magic.
Somewhat simplified, one could say: Ancient Mana does just about everything in Suramar. But let’s take a closer look at the individual points:
The Nightborne of Suramar need Ancient Mana at regular intervals; otherwise, they will not speak to you, as hunger drives them insane. Anyone who wants to take on quests must first satisfy their thirst for magic.
Some quests require Ancient Mana.
Later in the quest chain, you will unlock teleporters that connect locations throughout Suramar. Activating these portals costs a one-time moderate amount of Ancient Mana (between 100 and 250).
For the history of the zone, various ley lines need to be activated. Activation also costs larger amounts of Ancient Mana.
Many vendors accept Ancient Mana as currency, especially in the capital of the Nightborne. This allows you to unlock toys, buffs, or temporary companions.
Numerous devices, such as protective enchantment stones, require Ancient Mana. Most of the time, a temporary buff awaits.
The Nightborne want Mana. Otherwise, they are not very talkative.
With all these uses, it is only good that Ancient Mana is available at almost every corner:
It can be looted from almost all enemies. Some enemies are “infused with ley magic” and leave behind several units of Ancient Mana.
Crystals, shards, and chunks lie all over the place, granting between 10 and 50 Ancient Mana when looted.
Within the barrier of Suramar (i.e., the capital), there are virtually endless supplies of Ancient Mana. It can be found in plants and Arcwine bottles, but also in tomes and treasure chests.
Important: Remember your Mana Wyrmstone, which you receive very early in Suramar! This will display the sources of Ancient Mana directly on the minimap.

If you like battles with ships à la World of Warships, but find the sea too mainstream? Then rise into the skies and try out Cloud Pirates. Because the aerial combat MMO from the makers of Allods Online focuses entirely on gripping battles between enormous sailing ships that glide freely through the sky.
They do not just drift around peacefully, but try to blast each other out of the sky with entire decks full of cannons. Those who are hit will spectacularly crash as a burning wreck to the ground! Those who win can loot and upgrade their ship. Our ships come in various classes, from the heavy Dreadnought to the agile Galleon, each ship has its own advantages, disadvantages, and abilities.
Unfortunately, we do not know much more about Cloud Pirates at this time, but an initial trailer already whets the appetite for more. The game is set to be released this year, and a closed beta is also already planned. You can already apply for the beta on the official Cloud Pirates website.

With these tips and tricks for Battlefield 1 you are equipped for the open beta!
Although the game will be released in October, countless players are already on the servers of Battlefield 1. The open beta started on August 31 and attracts many fans who want to try the game. With the right tricks and good strategies, you are well prepared for the open beta and can use the mechanics to your advantage .
Unlocking weapons in Battlefield 1
Currently, unlocking the weapons is a bit problematic. Ideally, weapons should be able to be unlocked in the game, but that is not currently functioning. As an alternative, you can do this via the Companion app or on the official Battlefield website under “Career” . Select your class and choose between the available unlocks. You pay for new equipment with Warbonds that you earn by leveling up your character.
Locations of the elite classes and how to use them
The Sentry is located near the F capture point. The spawn point will be marked on your map. Equipped with a powerful MG, he has a lot of firepower. One of his weaknesses is that he cannot equip a gas mask.
The Tank Hunter is located near the E capture point. Although he can defeat lighter vehicles and infantry with his anti-tank weapon, he shows his true strength against heavily armored targets at long distances. You can only use the weapon from cover or when it is on the bipod.
The Flamethrower can be found near the B capture point, not far from a partially destroyed building. Equipped with a flamethrower, he is quite strong, but the gas mask severely limits his field of vision.
Only one elite class can be activated at a time. Keep in mind that these classes are only really strong if you can handle them well. Otherwise, a swift death is inevitable.
Choosing the right airplane
In the open beta of Battlefield 1, there are currently 3 different types of airplanes. The Attack Plane, the Fighter, and the Bomber. The Fighter is the lightest and fastest variant of the airplanes – however, the Fighter does not withstand much damage. If you play the fighter with the “Bomber Killer” feature, you can have a lot of fun with the aircraft. “Bomber Killer” allows you to fire rockets that you can steer yourself. Due to the large hitbox upon impact, you can deal a lot of damage.
Using gas grenades against snipers
If you are near an enemy sniper, you should consider using the gas grenade option. If you throw a gas grenade at a sniper, he is forced to take action against it.
Source: IGN
Either he leaves his position and is vulnerable during movement, or he has to put on his gas mask. Since the gas mask severely restricts the shooter’s visibility, you can approach him more easily and kill him.
Fighting soldiers on horseback
Horses play a significant role in Battlefield 1. The developers programmed the horses to behave in a particularly realistic manner and have their own character . In battles, you often see soldiers traveling on horses. When fighting against them, you should focus on the soldier and not on the horse.
The animals have significantly more health points than the riders and are therefore hard to kill. Even if the rider wears strong armor, you should focus on him and not on the horse.
Use artillery strikes in Rush mode
In Rush mode, defenders must defend telegraph poles. The attackers try to reach the poles and attach an explosive charge to them in order to destroy them. As a defender, it is important to request artillery support in the game. However, you cannot aim these strikes precisely. You call for an attack, and then the game decides where the strike will occur.
As attackers, keep in mind that your job is not finished after you attach the explosives. If you do not protect the charges, they can be defused by the defenders. So keep an eye on them!
Don’t run away right after taking a point!
For Battlefield veterans, this tip probably isn’t new. After taking a point in the game, you shouldn’t just run away and try to capture the next one. A new capture point often provides rewards for the team that has taken it.
So check to see if vehicles or tanks appear nearby after you have captured a point, as this makes the journey to the next point significantly easier. You can see how fun a ride in a jeep can be in the curious “Battlefield 1” glitches.

In Destiny, numerous details about “The Rise of Iron” have been released. Changes are coming to the exotic vendor Xur.
Gameinformer released a nearly hour-long video in which they answered several community questions with Game Director Chris Barrett and Executive Producer Scott Taylor. We summarize the most exciting information.

On one hand, he will occasionally bring new RoI exotics. His stock will become more varied. On the other hand, you can also purchase ornaments from him, which are otherwise only available in “Radiant Treasures.” The offerings will rotate weekly.
It should be noted that you must purchase these ornaments with “Silver Dust” – which translates to “Silber-Staub” in German. You can obtain this dust by breaking down certain items, such as ornaments, from the “Radiant Treasures.” You can also use silver dust to purchase items in Eververse. The exact ratio of silver to silver dust is currently unknown.
Exact Release Time of “Rise of Iron”
We want to summarize numerous other details from the video in bullet points. Among other things, the exact start date for RoI was mentioned.
RoI goes live on September 20 at 11 AM – at the weekly reset.
The autumn expansion will bring fresh trophies and achievements.
In Felwinter Peak, there will be something really cool, a secret that has not been discussed so far.
At the launch of RoI, there will be no (weapon) balance adjustments. However, they are closely monitoring the data and will respond accordingly in the future.
In response to the question about solo content, the developers were somewhat evasive. They referred to the story, the Archon Forge and faction packages, but emphasized that there will be many ways to reach the new max level. This motto was introduced with the April update: Players should be able to play what they enjoy while still leveling up their light level.
That Obsessive will appear on patrols will not change.
The strike playlists will receive an update: There will be a heroic RoI playlist, a non-heroic RoI playlist, a TTK playlist, and a playlist with the strikes as they were before TTK. If you don’t have RoI, there will also be a heroic playlist with TTK strikes.
If you have quests and bounties open, this will not change at the launch of RoI. You can still complete them afterwards.
You can switch between the 8 new ornaments at any time – even if you have already started an activity.
The Three of Coins will still exist. With the same function.
The Year 3 Thorn remains the same Thorn we love – or hate. However, it has been balanced.
In response to the question of whether there will be secrets like the Black Spindle in TTK, the answer was: Yes, there are things to discover. Basically, more quests will come to obtain exotics. A quest for the Gjallarhorn, the Thorn, and the Khvostov 7G-0X is coming.
The Gjallarhorn will still be great, but now it is balanced. It should not be a “game-breaking” weapon.
Is it worth saving exotic engrams now to take them to the cryptarch after the launch of RoI? In hopes that you can quickly obtain new exotics? The developers did not respond to that.
The light level of vendor items will increase. Exact numbers are not provided.
When ranking up with the factions, players will be able to choose which reward package they want: weapons, armor pieces, or chroma. The factions will bring new gear. Additionally, there are cool plans for the factions in the future that cannot be discussed at the moment.
In response to whether more chroma will come, it was stated: In RoI, the focus is on the ornaments system. The existing chroma items will remain. They can be obtained through the factions.
New strike-exclusive legendary items are coming. However, these will remain secret so that the Guardians can discover a lot at launch.
The gunsmith Banshee-44 will have higher light-level items with the autumn expansion. However, it seems he will not bring any new weapons.
The Trials reward gear from Year 2 will no longer be available after RoI.
The three things that developers say players can look forward to the most are: The Raid “Wrath of the Machine”, Private Matches, and all the things that can be discovered, like gear or the story.
Electronic Arts and Dice have announced a new Hut contract for the online shooter Star Wars: Battlefront.
During the mission, you can unlock the new map “Escape Artist”. With this, you will be faster while sprinting. In addition, the “Level 3” bonus enhances your melee attack. Dice explains that the map is best combined with a Stim to increase your chances of survival. Alternatively, you can combine the map with the also new Sabotage map to quickly eliminate enemies.
Attack on the Death Star!
The upcoming DLC Death Star will also introduce the new mode “Battle Station”, consisting of three phases. In the first phase, Rebels must try to weaken the defense of a Star Destroyer to subsequently land on the Death Star. There they must find and free an important robot. In the third phase, the Rebels attempt to destroy the Death Star. Players on the side of the Empire, however, must prevent all of this.
Later this year, the “Virtual Reality” spin-off Star Wars Battlefront Rogue One: X-Wing VR Mission will also be released. This is a special mission based on the upcoming film Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and designed for Playstation VR.

EVE Online is one of the few online role-playing games that continues to succeed with a subscription model. However, with the upcoming November update, a special Free2Play feature is set to be introduced. We explain what it’s all about!
With the upcoming November update, EVE Online will receive the new so-called “Clone States”. Clones are, by the way, the player characters in the EVE universe. Where once all clones had the same opportunities, there are now “Alpha” and “Omega” clones. Omega clones are the typical subscribers of EVE Online, who still have full access rights and can fly all ships and learn all skills.
The Alpha clones, on the other hand, are basically test accounts. Because even now we can obtain a time-limited test access to EVE Online to check out the game. With the introduction of Alpha clones, this time limit will be lifted, and players can fly around in the EVE Online universe indefinitely. However, they are restricted to certain ships and skills, which they level slower than Omegas. If they want more, they will have to pay money or spend the special in-game currency PLEX .
The Free2Play feature in EVE Online is more like an unlimited demo than a typical Free2Play game, where subscribers enjoy only a few small advantages. Because anyone wanting to fully immerse themselves in the EVE universe will likely still need a subscription in the future, which can also be earned through hard work in the game via the real-money trading currency PLEX. But what do you think? Will EVE be enriched by Alpha clones, or is EVE doomed to descend into the galactic abyss due to a flood of Free2Play players? Let us know and write it in the comments!

World of Warcraft: Legion is filled with impressive cutscenes that are worth a look even for non-fans.
The Cinematics of Legion
In the current expansion Legion of World of Warcraft, the developers put a lot of effort into enhancing the various stories with cutscenes to make the highlights more visually appealing. The YouTube channels of mmo-champion and vanion.eu have uploaded the videos. We categorize the different cinematics and briefly summarize the overarching storyline. That there are massive spoilers here should go without saying (but since I’m nice, I’ll say it anyway).
The Cinematics of the Broken Shore
The videos in this category should be largely known by now. They take place after the first attack of the Legion, during the showdown between the leaders of the Horde and Alliance against Gul’dan and the Burning Legion. Depending on the faction, there is a video that slightly differs in some sequences. To understand both sides of the story, it’s worth looking at both.
The Alliance’s Side:

Those who play the new hero class also get to enjoy exclusive cutscenes. It starts in the Black Temple, where Illidan rallies his disciples for a special mission.

Battleborn is still not a success for Gearbox and publisher 2K, but still the developers are not throwing in the towel. They continue to work on new heroes as well as the already announced story missions. But also two new PvP maps are in the works.
Battleborn will soon receive the long-awaited story missions. The first of these new PvE missions is set to go live on October 13. The title: “Attikus and The Thrall Rebellion”. It focuses on the backstory of the hero Attikus, who frees his enslaved Thrall brothers from the chains of the Jennerites. All story missions will revolve around the story of a hero and delve deeper into the lore.
I would have liked a mission with my favorite character Orendi….
Therefore, story mission number 2 is also about the cute penguin Toby who craves recognition. The title “Toby’s Friendship Raid” already whets the appetite for more. This mission is set to release in autumn, and three more missions are planned for winter. However, the story missions are not free; those without a season pass will have to pay 5 dollars each. But along with the mission itself, there are also new skins and taunts to unlock.
Free PvP Maps and More Characters
If you don’t want to pay anything, you can look forward to the two new PvP modes. The first is called “Face Off” where two teams compete to stop an invasion of the Varelsi. The goal is to kill more invaders than the other team. A cheerful “Every-man-for-himself” scenario! However, not much is known about the second mode. Face Off is expected to be released in autumn.
The bomb sparrow Ernest is the coolest new hero so far! I mean, a sparrow! With bombs!!!
As we previously reported, two new characters are still on the way. After the bomb sparrow Ernest has already been released, the brat Kid Ultra has been announced as a new hero for the faction of the Last Light Consortium. He is expected to arrive in autumn as well. The last hero, likely a Jennerite, will come in winter.
