As Ubisoft Massive stated on the official The Division website, a patch is set to be released sometime next week. However, the exact release date and what changes the update will bring have not been disclosed by the developers. More information will be revealed “very soon”.
A possible time for the patch on PS4, Xbox One, and PC could be in the morning on March 22. Maintenance work is said to occur weekly on Tuesdays between 9 and 12. Every week, Ubisoft Massive publishes an article in which they present news from the developer and community team.
The developers may adjust the Dark Zone with this patch. After all, it was hinted at in a previous developer livestream that changes to this PvP area are necessary. There is a lack of a PvP element that truly motivates agents. We have already discussed in this article that things are too peaceful in the Dark Zone.
We will report on this patch as soon as new information becomes available.

A new trailer for the upcoming Warcraft movie has been released. Check it out here.
Second Trailer of Warcraft: The Beginning
European fans only have a little over 2 months to wait until the movie “Warcraft: The Beginning” hits theaters on May 26. Legendary Pictures has now released the second trailer of the film, which we don’t want to withhold from you. This time there’s a little less story to see, but some fight sequences instead. Although not all the footage is new and much was already seen in the first trailer, it is nevertheless worth a look (not only for fans).
By the way: In America, the film will be released several weeks later, in June. Keep this joyful event in mind the next time you want to complain about how “the Americans always get everything before us”.
The rumor mill is boiling – is World of Warcraft: Legion coming in June? Some hints at least suggest so.
Is the Legion stealing our summer vacation?
It has now become a regular procedure that rumors shoot up whenever a new expansion for World of Warcraft is supposed to be released finally. In particular, various retailers, who often carelessly list a supposed release date, fuel the rumor mill every time.
As reported by the English site mmorpg.com, various retailers in Poland, the Netherlands, and the United Arab Emirates have announced the sale of the expansion for June 30. However, as this is also the last day of “spring”, it could simply be an estimate, since Blizzard had planned to release the addon in “summer”.
At the end of May, the movie “Warcraft: The Beginning” will come to Europe, and since Blizzard has already conducted a survey beforehand about what players would think of a possible “Movie Packet” containing the base game and additional playtime. This could bridge the gap until the release of Legion – at least in theory.
Currently, World of Warcraft: Legion is still in closed alpha phase, and not all areas and game content are accessible yet. A release in June seems, given Blizzard’s usual pace (“It’s done, when it’s done”), rather unrealistic.
For more news and articles about the upcoming expansion Legion, you can find it on our World of Warcraft topic page.

In the MMO shooter Destiny , the spring update will be released in a month.
Today, there were new infos from Bungie in “This Week at Bungie.” It’s about the big content patch scheduled for spring.
The spring update finally has a date
The spring update will now be called the “April Update.” It is set to release on April 12, 2016. The official name is “Update 2.2.0.” Included will be:
new PvE challenges
new and updated gear
a new quest that includes the “Blighted Chalice Strike”
an increase in the maximum light level and rewards
sandbox and crucible updates (that are probably balance changes)
… and more (with three significant dots).
Bungie will present the next free update of Destiny in three streams
The update will be free if you have “The Taken King.” So just download it and that’s it.
It will be presented over the next three Wednesdays. These are March 24, March 31, and April 6. Each at 11 AM Pacific Time. For us, that’s the first time at 7 PM and then twice at 8 PM. (There’s the time change on Sunday, the 27th, in Germany in between).
In the first stream on the 23rd at 7:00 PM, it will be about new game content.
In the second stream on the 30th at 8:00 PM about the new rewards.
And in the 3rd stream on April 6 at 8:00 PM, it will be about balance changes.
What all this means exactly, what will happen in the April update, we will learn in the coming weeks. We at Mein-MMO will likely accompany the three live streams with a live ticker in German.
Today, we have dealt with what could be coming and what the keywords from Bungie might conceal. The only “new” information about the content is regarding the quest and the “Blighted Chalice Strike” (something like corrupted chalice) – that sounds quite like the Taken:
It looks like we shouldn’t make any plans for the next Wednesday evenings. Closer in the future is the visit of Xur, the agent of the Nine. He is scheduled for Friday, March 18, at 10:00 AM. Here is our “Xur in Destiny” article from March 18.

Next week, the first purchasable DLC “Outer Rim” for Star Wars Battlefront will be released.
On Tuesday, March 22, it’s finally happening. Then the first paid DLC “Outer Rim” for the online shooter Star Wars Battlefront will be released on PC, Xbox One, and Playstation 4. EA announced this tonight in a trailer: On March 22, it should be playable if you own a Season Pass.
Update: It is now confirmed. Players without a Season Pass will only be able to start on April 5. The 4 DLCs are expected to cost $15 each (likely also in Euros), the Season Pass with all four was available for $50.
The trailer once again addresses the age-old question: Who shot first? Han or Greedo?
The DLC brings four new maps on Sullust and Tatooine. It promises pipelines, platforms, Jabba’s throne room, and the hangar of his sail barge. With Greedo and Nien Nunb two extraordinary heroes are newly added. The Relby-v10 rifle and the DT-12 blaster pistol are also included. For star cards, you can expect “Scattergun”, “Dioxis Grenade”, and “Adrenaline Stimulator”.
The fresh game mode “Transport” is also thrown into the mix by EA. Here, rebels must recover material from transports and bring it to their cargo ship. The imperial troops will try to prevent them from doing so.

Fans of the background story of Overwatch will soon get plenty of food for thought. We have the details.
Why does Winston like peanut butter?
Already at BlizzCon two years ago, fans expressed concerns that Overwatch would be a great game, but without exciting lore, many players might never engage with it. Blizzard heard these concerns and, a year later, at BlizzCon 2015, announced that it would tell the background story of the hero shooter in different ways. It seems that they are now serious about this.

This March, they plan to start releasing “Shorts”: short cinematics that highlight the background story of individual characters. At first glance, these videos will match the quality of the intro cinematics – so it will be exciting to see.
Comic lovers will also get their money’s worth – oh, nonsense. It’s free! In total, Blizzard plans to release 6 short, digital comics by the launch of the game on May 24, which will shed light on the past of the criminals Roadhog and Junkrat, but also take a closer look at the German knight Reinhardt. The first comic is set to be released in April and reveals details about the story of McCree.
In conclusion, there is also a larger work, a complete “Graphic Novel” that deals with the Omnic Crisis. The Omnic Crisis was the uprising of the robots, which hardly any nation could resist and ultimately led to the founding of Overwatch. Logically, this will address the stories of the founding members of Overwatch, such as heroes like Soldier: 76, Torbjörn, Reaper, and Reinhardt. However, the cost of this work and when exactly it will be released is still unknown.
Where did Winston get his glasses? Why are Genji and Hanzo at war with each other? Why does Reinhardt like Hasslehoff’s music? (Okay, dumb question) And most importantly for the numerous fanfictions: What happened between Widowmaker and Tracer?
Reinhardt hunting dragons? Yep, that’s how it is…

In The Division, a curious video has been released: It shows an agent in the Dark Zone saving his rogue buddy – with the “Gandalf trick”.
Anyone who has seen “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring” knows the scene where Gandalf stops the Balrog with the words: YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
The reddit user Ko-ba has now imitated Gandalf and stopped agents who wanted to chase his rogue buddy. He stood in a doorway, which prevented a squad of other agents from passing. His buddy escaped the pursuers.
According to the reddit user, he wanted to stop this agent hunt peacefully. All it takes is a door and a brave agent to imitate Gandalf. However, this action didn’t end quite as peacefully…
You can check out the fun in the following video:

Note: This protection does not last forever – if the pursuers continuously run against “Gandalf” in a sprint, they will get past him. However, the fugitive still gains some time.
Furthermore, the Gandalf player must not be “Rogue”, as otherwise he can also be shot without penalty.
While some users celebrate this Gandalf tactic, others see it as an unfair bug that the developers should fix. The developers have somewhat put themselves in a tight spot with the narrow doorways.
What do you think of this Gandalf trick? Funny or just an annoyance?
On Destiny, there is a website that gives you interesting insights into the statistics surrounding the Trials of Osiris. We briefly introduce this page.
In the MMO shooter Destiny, you can view statistics for the Trials of Osiris on the website DestinyTrialsReport. In addition to general statistics, you will also find specific numbers about yourself and your opponents. This service is available for Playstation and Xbox.
The statistics you get for the Trials
Last week, the Map Asylum was featured in the Trials of Osiris. With DestinyTrialsReport, you can now view statistics for this event. You can directly find the favored weapons of your Guardians. Last week, the most kills were achieved with the following weapons, sorted by primary, special, and heavy weapon:
Additionally, the site tells you which weapon type achieved the most kills: The numbers next to it indicate how much last week’s values deviate from the average values.
Moreover, you will learn that there were 204,909 flawless runs last week. Additionally, the Guardians who first reached the Lighthouse last week are named.
You can freely switch between the Playstation and Xbox statistics. By clicking on “Previous Maps,” you can also view the “Trials of Osiris statistics” from previous weeks.
Find current statistics about your opponents
The site should also allow you to view the statistics of your opponents. For this, you just need to enter your gamer name. Afterwards, under “MYOPPONENTS,” you will find your opponents and their statistics. You also have a filter function available.
Here you can see what weapons your opponents are using, how their recent games went, how often they achieved flawless runs, what their chances of winning games are, and a variety of other stats.
This area is still in beta phase and is therefore not fully developed yet. Through this link, you can access the DestinyTrialsReport page.
Will you use this service to view statistics for the Trials of Osiris and spy on your opponents?
The developer of League of Legends (LoL) Riot Games has been planning a new game client for some time now – and now there’s the first visual teaser.
As announced earlier this year, the client in LoL is to be completely redesigned soon. It is supposed to provide a whole new gaming experience, said “Ghostcrawler” in an interview with Travis Gafford.
Recently, a post appeared on Reddit where a player showed screenshots of the new client, which is currently still in the alpha phase. Shortly thereafter, Riot confirmed that these screenshots are real and provided more images and videos for the players of LoL from their own ranks.
Creating a team in the new client. Click to enlarge.
Sleek design – fitting for the new champion selection in LoL
With the new champion selection, Riot Games has already taken a big step towards the new client. The future design is supposed to be as direct and sleek as the new champion selection.
The new selection for an ARAM game is also already looking pretty good:
I personally quite like the new style. Everything seems tidier and a bit more “thought out” than the current concept of League of Legends. Of course, I don’t want to withhold the video of the new LoL client from you. How do you like the preview?

Small Pay2Win accusations regarding a costume are causing discontent among Black Desert. We have the details.
Nameless through the PvP of Black Desert
Actually, one has elegantly danced past the “Pay2Win” allegations in Black Desert, since apart from “Luck +1” on underwear, one can hardly buy any significant gameplay advantages through the cash shop. Or can you?
On Reddit, a user has now voiced strong complaints about the “Ghillie Suit”, or the camouflage clothing, as it grants a small but significant gameplay advantage, at least according to the user’s description esoquestion2k16.
The camouflage clothing allows players to hide their nameplate, which can be a small but crucial advantage, especially in PvP. According to the post, this is particularly frustrating for people like esoquestion2k16, who claims to be colorblind and can only clearly identify players in PvP through nameplates, as these stand out for him in white against the rest. He states literally:
“I paid for the base game. I don’t understand why I’m being punished just because I won’t lay down another 30 euros for an item that is quite necessary in PvP… in a PvP game.”
The post on Reddit has received over 1700 upvotes “from the get-go”, and many players are calling for a change to the “Ghillie Suit” so that it perhaps loses its ability in PvP.
Mein-MMO says: Whether it is “Pay2Win” or not, we cannot determine conclusively. But the possibility to hide one’s nameplate is definitely an interference with visibility in PvP and can thus be considered a disadvantage. Fans hope that Daum will respond and make changes, which puts the developers in a difficult position. Many players have purchased the camouflage clothing specifically for this feature and would then need to be compensated in some way. It remains to be seen how Daum will respond.

Fans of Skyforge pay attention: The new update “Dark Omen” is now available for the free-to-play MMORPG.
With “Dark Omen”, new challenges await you. This includes a continuation of the story. You wanted to become a powerful god in the MMO Skyforge, who is allowed to protect the world of Aelion. If you have already mastered the previous quests, you are already a lesser god. But who wants to settle for that?
Become an elder god!
Do you at least want to become an elder god? Then you can now embark on this path with the new quest line “Core Proof”. During the quest, you will face the invasion of the Mechanoid army and even have to defeat the Mechanoid avatar in the finale. This will lead you further on your way to becoming an elder god.
“Dark Omen” also introduces a new operations system. In this, you can combine your powers at a high level, allowing you to face the invasions together with others. With the revision of the operations, a progress bar will also be introduced, and the system will be easier to use.
If you want to merge your pantheon with others – whether big or small – you can now use the fusion tool for that. This will transfer both members and resources to the new community. Together, you will face the threats that the planet Aelion is exposed to.
More to come!
With these innovations, you initially have new content in the MMORPG Skyforge, but the developers are already working on further updates. The improvements in gameplay introduced now lay the foundation for the upcoming innovations. What they will be, Obsidian and the Allods team, the developers of Skyforge, will surely tell us soon.

For Blade & Soul, the extension Silverfrost Summit will soon be released. We have summarized the highlights.
New Capital City and Level 50 as the New Cap
Since Blade & Soul has a significant lead in fresh content in its home country of Korea, the western developers are in the comfortable position to quickly roll out new content. The next expansion “Silverfrost Summit” has now been announced, although a specific release date has not yet been set.
This expansion includes not less than a complete continent full of new areas, numerous dungeons, and even an increase of the current level cap.
Zaiwei looks beautiful but urgently needs help.
The focal point of the action will be the palace-like capital Zaiwei, where most opportunities for social interaction and crafting can be found. Many quests begin and end there, slowly advancing the story of the game. Players are getting closer to the point where they can take revenge on Jinsoyun. However, not much has been revealed about this yet.
In addition to the new zones, which – as the name suggests – are predominantly covered in snow and ice, there are also 8 new dungeons where players can obtain new upgrades for their weapons and plenty of costumes. As expected, some of the dungeons are designed for 6 players, while others are available in the significantly harder 4-player mode.
But there are also dungeons in the world designed for 24 players – and that’s not just one. In the Frostscale Basin and the Beast Swamp, numerous bosses are waiting to be shattered by large raid groups. If that is not enough, players can also participate in the server event to protect the place of Great Harvest from the onslaught of enemy troops.
To ensure that the new content affects character development as well, the existing level cap will be raised to level 50, and the Hongmoon level cap will be raised to 10. This allows players to draw a bit more power from their characters.

We take a look at what is known and what is not about the next patch in Destiny.
It is March 2016. Spring begins in 3 days. Time to take a look at what the “Spring Update” announced by Bungie is about. It is supposed to be “the biggest new thing since The Taken King.”
It’s time for new game content. The last time there was really new content for Destiny was in September 2015, when “The Taken King” was released. In December, they added some additional challenges in the raid, but that was actually it.
This is what year 2 will be like – and that’s coming soon
In September, it was said: This is now year 2. We can’t wait to show you everything we’ve planned for year 2.
In the meantime, it is becoming evident what Bungie has planned for content in year 2: Obviously, only one content patch after “The Taken King,” which is supposed to come in the spring. After that, the next paid expansion will probably already lead into year 3.
Otherwise, Destiny has so far relied on limited-time events like the Sparrow Racing or the Crimson Days and on “smaller updates,” like the one in December. There, they changed the balance and introduced some exotic weapons and armor again. But fresh game content has been scarce so far.
That is supposed to change in the spring. What can we expect for the presumably only “content patch” in year 2?
Many gamers are looking forward to the release of the shooter Doom, especially the multiplayer mode.
The maps on which you will fight in Doom are designed to be varied. From eerie Mars bases to the fiery chasms of hell, you will visit many different places.
These 9 multiplayer maps are in Doom
Bethesda Softworks has now introduced the nine maps that will be included at launch:
Excavation: This UAC outpost was built for ore extraction. The map has a manageable size and a dangerous mill where rocks are crushed.
Hellish: This is a medium-sized hell map. You will visit both indoor and outdoor areas and must strategically use the many platforms, chasms, and teleporters.
Abyss: This is a very large map, set beneath the polar caps of Mars.
Disposal: A fairly small map, set in the waste processing facility for the UAC’s research and residential complexes. Here, you should definitely watch out for the radioactive slime!
Helix: In this lab, experiments are conducted on demons to develop advanced weapons. This map is particularly suitable for a quick clan arena round.
Corruption: You will find yourself in an ancient arena, where the screams of tortured souls can still be heard.
Blasphemous: This map takes place in the middle of a hell breach. The clear lines of sight make the battles particularly fast, as you always need to keep moving.
Heatwave: This is an industrial UAC station with bright corridors.
Underground: In this area, the energies of hell accumulate to beam from this cavernous, symmetrical site to Earth.

The maps of Doom will offer you many opportunities to take out your opponents. In particular, the teleporters, jump pads, explosive barrels, and the toxic and radioactive slime play an important role. You must aim to eliminate your opponents as quickly as possible, preferably with an “Instant Kill”!
In The Division, sniper rifles are essential for reliably taking out enemies from a distance. We take a look at Tenebrae, a high-end sniper rifle.
Tenebrae is one of the high-ends in The Division that bears its own name. We take a closer look at this sniper rifle.
Where can I get Tenebrae?
You can currently acquire this high-end sniper rifle from the Dark Zone specialty vendor. The blueprint costs 179 Phoenix Credits and requires level 30 and DZ rank 50. You can then craft Tenebrae with 5 weapon parts, 3 tools, and 3 Division Tech. What the Dark Zone specialty vendor has on offer this week can be found here.
This weapon features a unique skin that cannot be changed.
Tenebrae has these stats
The sniper rifle Tenebrae comes with these stats:
When you craft this weapon, the damage varies within a certain range and also depends on your firearms score, thus no exact figures can be provided.
RPM is 275.
The magazine size is 20.
The headshot bonus is 171%.
Tenebrae can be enhanced with all possible mods. Thus, you have an influence on these stats. Keep in mind that these values depend on your attributes and the mods you use.
Here are the talents of Tenebrae
The high-end weapon comes with three fixed talents. Additionally, it has a fourth random talent.
Ready: When a target is eliminated with a headshot, 100% of swing is removed from the weapon for 7 seconds.
Brutal: Headshot damage is increased by 24% when using this weapon.
Toxic: Headshots with this weapon have a 13% chance to activate the Blind status effect.
A random talent.
Remember that you must first unlock the three fixed talents by achieving the required attribute values.
This sniper rifle is thus designed to annihilate enemies with headshots. Headshot damage is already increased for sniper rifles, thus the Brutal talent certainly lives up to its name.
What makes Tenebrae stand out in The Division?
The term “Tenebrae” comes from Latin and means darkness, but also blindness.
The weapon has high accuracy, a reload speed of about four seconds, and good range. Another advantage of the Tenebrae is that with an extended high-end magazine, you can fire up to 49 rounds before needing to reload. Thus, you can generally take down many enemies.
However, the weapon has two notable disadvantages:
For a sniper build, this weapon is not necessarily recommended, as the damage output is lower than with other sniper rifles. Here, a weapon with a smaller magazine size but high damage would be advisable.
Additionally, the low stability rarely allows for quick successive shots, as the target must be re-aimed. Thus, quick headshot hits are difficult to achieve.

The community has mixed feelings about Tenebrae. While some regret the purchase and apparently can’t handle it, other users are very satisfied. As long as one has aiming skills, this weapon is top-notch. Therefore, our question:
The rumors have been confirmed, the next hero of Heroes of the Storm will be the primal Zerg Dehaka. We have the details.
The primal Zerg Dehaka strikes from the bushes
Fans did not have to wait long to deduce the next hero of Heroes of the Storm from the teaser screenshots. The first speculations have clearly been confirmed, as the primal Zerg and warrior Dehaka from StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm will soon enter the battlefield.
A small preview was made possible by the Brazilian website Omelete, which had an exclusive look at the newcomer.
If you speak Portuguese, feel free to double-check.
We take a quick look at Dehaka’s abilities:
The passive ability Essence Collection allows Dehaka to collect essence from slain minions and heroes. At the press of a button, this is consumed and restores a portion of his HP.
With Burrow, Dehaka can temporarily tunnel into the ground and become immune to damage. He is then in a “stasis” state, rendering him immune to all control effects – but he cannot attack.
The Macabre Swarm creates a deadly aura around Dehaka, dealing damage to all enemies in close proximity.
With Drag, Dehaka snaps his tongue out and can “pull” enemies for a short time to bring them to a new position.
The first heroic ability Isolation applies various negative effects to a hero. He becomes slowed, silenced, his vision radius is dramatically reduced, and he can no longer see his allied teammates.
The second heroic ability Adaption restores a large part of the damage taken after 5 seconds, making it a powerful self-heal.
It is also worth mentioning that Dehaka does not have a mount. Instead, he can burrow to any bush or vent (basically the same – just a different “flair”) every 40 seconds.
So far, there is no fixed release date for Dehaka, but fans expect that he will appear in 2 weeks. This would perfectly close the existing gap between the last hero Xul and the upcoming Tracer.
Three new cards for Hearthstone “Whispers of the Old Gods” have been revealed. Warriors and Druids can rejoice!
It will still be a few weeks until the expansion “Whispers of the Old Gods” is released at the end of April, beginning of May. Blizzard is gradually revealing the new cards through various streamers and websites. In the meantime, three have piled up again, which we would like to briefly introduce to you here.
C’thun gets 3 new minions
Paladins have also been drawn into the pull of the old gods – at least their minions. The neutral minion “C’thun’s Servant” costs 4 mana, has stats of 4/2 and possesses a Divine Shield. Additionally, it strengthens C’thun, no matter where he is (deck, hand, battlefield), by a Battlecry of +2/+2.
Druids receive a new minion for 4 mana, which has solid stats of 4/5. The bugman “Klaxxi Amber-Weaver” is powered up by the Battlecry: “If your C’thun has more than 10 health points, gain +5 health”, making the Klaxxi effectively a 4/10 creature for 4 mana. This might almost be a “Value Record”, as some streamers would call it.
Warriors can look forward to a new class card that also interacts with C’thun. The “Ancient Shieldbearer” costs 7 mana and has somewhat weak stats of 6/6. However, this is balanced out by the strong Battlecry: “If your C’thun has at least 10 attack, gain 10 armor”. There will surely be many cases where this card turns the match around.

Battleborn talks about future DLCs and additional characters even before its release. We have the details.
Although Battleborn has not yet been released, the development is in its final stages. In the past, one would have said the game has now reached “gold status,” as the game boxes are being produced to be delivered on time by May 3rd, the release date of the hero shooter. This provides the opportunity for a few more announcements, as the release is by no means the end of the line. Free content and paid DLCs will also be part of Battleborn’s future.
5 Characters, 5 DLCs, and a Season Pass
Additionally, it has been announced that Battleborn will receive 5 more heroes, all of whom will be released sometime after the launch – and completely free of charge. Everyone who purchases the game will therefore have over 30 different characters to choose from as their favorite.
There is not much known about the new heroes yet, except for Alani, who looks a bit like she was taken from the anime “Avatar.” She commands the element of water and can either harm enemies or heal allies – one could almost think she is an elemental bender.
As one is already accustomed to from the Borderlands series, Battleborn will also be expanded with paid DLCs after its launch. There will be a total of 5 addons at $5 each (probably the same price in Euros). Each will come with a story mission highlighting some side stories in the fight for the last bright star of the galaxy. Additionally, each of these DLCs will come with some skins and new emotes. If one wants, they can secure the whole thing as a season pass for $20 and save a bit.
For $20 you get the season pass with 5 DLCs.
New Game Modes and Maps
Aside from the free heroes and paid DLCs, Battleborn also aims to deliver additional content. The developers want to ensure a steady flow of new game modes and extra maps while also listening to feedback from the community if certain things are requested. While they do not make any concrete statements yet, at least on paper (or screen) it sounds promising.
