Tonight on April 2nd, the new game from Wargaming, the developers of World of Tanks, launched on Steam: But the launch of Steel Hunters could hardly be going worse. After only an hour, the reviews on Steam are blood red, with significant technical issues.
This is how the first hour of Steel Hunters on Steam goes: Not well at all. The game has reached about 4,479 players on Steam, but the reviews stand at only 21% positive, with the majority being negative.
Many players complain that their PC is already lagging in training. There is heavy criticism of the login system. And even the people who can already play are mostly lowering their thumbs. The mechs feel slow and clunky.
The comments on Steam are really harsh. It is said that Wargaming should just stick to their tanks.
Wargaming has already released a statement.

This annoys players: A simple criticism is that players cannot even create an account because they cannot type an “@” and must instead paste the character.
Just that seems to be upsetting some players so much that they write a negative review on Steam after just a few hours.
Wargaming says: “Bug slipped through”
This is what Wargaming says about the problem: Wargaming states that they apologize for the “rough start” in Early Access. They tested the game, but a bug slipped through, which now appears when many players log in at the same time.
The team is working on a problem and is doing so as quickly as possible.
Many players are concerned about rising prices in gaming. An analyst has predicted that GTA 6 could set new standards for the pricing of new titles, but now Nintendo has moved faster. With the announcement of the Nintendo Switch 2, prices for new games across the market could rise.
What has Nintendo revealed? On April 2nd, the Nintendo Direct took place, where primarily the new console “Nintendo Switch 2” was introduced. In addition to the console, new games were also revealed. Fans have now inquired on Nintendo’s site about the prices of the games and found that the Japanese company has significantly raised its prices (via nintendo.de).
The price increase could potentially change the gaming industry now if other companies follow suit.

Games are getting expensive – Nintendo leads the way
How expensive are the new titles expected to be? According to Nintendo’s official site, 2 new games have already been priced: Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza – the former has a new price tag that could potentially blow some budgets. They are pricing them by edition as follows:
Mario Kart World
Digital: 79.99 €
Physical: 89.99 €
Considering that Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for the Switch 1 only costs 59.99 €, this is a significant increase. Even console titles like Black Ops 6 at 79.99 € seem outdated in comparison.
With this new pricing strategy, other developers might finally feel encouraged to raise their prices, as the market has remained relatively stable, especially regarding game pricing.
The pain threshold for AAA titles is actually around $70, which is approximately 80 €, just like with Black Ops 6.
Why should prices be raised? According to analyst Matthew Ball, this is primarily because the gaming market does not look rosy. Many “Black Hole” games are currently being developed that aim to keep fans engaged for a long time – these include Fortnite, Call of Duty, and GTA Online. The market is tapped out.
To survive in the current situation, prices must be adjusted; otherwise, in the worst case, layoffs could threaten, Ball believes.
Since GTA is a huge brand and is expected by many gamers worldwide, Ball anticipated a price increase here. But now that Nintendo has taken the step with Mario Kart, it is only a matter of time before other companies follow suit.

The workers of the QA team, who work on Bethesda titles like the Fallout series or Elder Scrolls Online, are fed up. They have waited too long for progress in negotiations for better working conditions, unfortunately not to their satisfaction.
What is the conflict about? Over 300 testers of the QA team, who are responsible for quality assurance of various games such as the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls, are taking the next step. They have voted for a strike, as negotiations for fairer compensation with Microsoft have stalled. This strike has not yet come into effect, but it could be initiated at any time.
A senior QA tester commented in a press release on the situation: “None of us want it to come to this, but if Microsoft and ZeniMax continue to demonstrate at the negotiating table that they are not willing to pay us fair wages for the value our work brings to our games, we will show them how valuable our work is.”

A strike as a last resort
What is motivating the testers to take this action? The union of Bethesda’s quality assurance has been negotiating for better working conditions for two years. The main concerns include better salaries, improvements on-site, and better arrangements for working from home. (via PC Gamer)
“Underpayment and expensive return-to-office initiatives have made many of us put our lives on hold because our income can’t keep up with the rising cost of living in the cities where ZeniMax insists we live and work to keep our jobs,” explains a senior QA tester in the press release.
THEWIDOWS0N says: “I believe that these companies can only be made to pay a fair share if they are forced to.”
SailorEsmeraude comments: “I really hope the strike goes well.”
patiperro_v3 says: “Good luck to the workers. This is Microsoft for crying out loud, not a small shop on the corner, they can afford to pay sick leave. It’s ridiculous that a strike is even necessary.”
Despite the tense situation, The Elder Scrolls Online remains one of the best MMORPGs on Steam, currently ranking 5th out of a total of 10 on our list for February 2025.

In spring 2025, Monster Hunter Wilds is a big topic on Steam, PS5, and Xbox. Some monster hunters have speculated about a release for the Nintendo Switch 2, but that is currently not planned. However, a similar game is making a comeback: the almost forgotten Wild Hearts.
This is the announcement: KOEI Tecmo will bring Wild Hearts S to the Nintendo Switch 2 on July 25, 2025.
The action role-playing game is very similar to the Monster Hunter series and takes place in a fantasy world reminiscent of feudal Japan. You travel as a hunter through the land of Azuma, hunting gigantic monsters, Kemono. For the battle against them, you use 8 types of weapons and craft items that help you in your fight.
No one probably expected the game now, especially since the first release in the West failed disastrously over 2 years ago.

Wild Hearts was hardly on anyone’s release list for the Switch 2
Why does the game come as such a surprise? Wild Hearts had its release on PS5, Steam, and Xbox Series X in February 2023 and was clearly planned by EA as a replacement for the already phasing out Monster Hunter World.
However, despite decent reviews, Wild Hearts quickly proved to be a flop: the game was perceived as “way too expensive” at €80 and suffered from significant performance issues. The harshest criticism at the time was on Steam, stating that the price in euros was higher than the FPS that Wild Hearts could max out.
The number of players on Steam was not impressive even at the release in February 2023 and then quickly fell to abysmal numbers.
From April 2025, you can pre-order the Nintendo Switch 2. But those who want to pre-order the Switch 2 must meet various requirements in order to be allowed to order directly from Nintendo.
Nintendo has announced not only the official release date of the Switch 2 but also the prices and the start of pre-orders. However, anyone who wants to pre-order the Switch 2 directly from Nintendo must meet several requirements. You can find all the information directly in the Nintendo shop.
Switch Online Membership:
You must have been an uninterrupted “Nintendo Switch Online” member for at least two years by 31.03.2025 and have an active membership on the day of pre-ordering.
For family memberships, the membership holder is eligible to pre-order. Other members are not eligible.
Playtime and Emails
You need to have spent a certain amount of time playing purchased Switch games, with those having higher playtime being preferred.

You must have consented to receive promotional emails from Nintendo.
Can you also pre-order the Switch 2 elsewhere? Yes, because by now you can also order the Nintendo Switch 2, for example, at MediaMarkt. There are usually no restrictions on orders here. You can also order from Saturn and Amazon, but you must request an invitation from Amazon. The subsequent link via email is then valid for 22 hours.

In Schedule 1 on Steam, you build your drug empire, but some players want to take a shortcut using cheats. We will show you how to open the console, what cheats are available, and what effects they have.
Update, January 27, 2026: The article has been checked and is up to date.
How do I open the console? In Schedule 1, you can bypass annoying grind passages using cheats, but to do so, you first need to enable the console. Follow these steps:
Press ESC to open your menu
Select “Console” under the “Game” tab and enable it

Once you have installed the English layout, you can quickly switch your layouts with the Windows key + spacebar. This is important, as you need the tilde key (~) to open the console. Now let’s move on to the comprehensive list of all cheats and their functions.

At the Game Developers Conference 2025, a new MMORPG was showcased behind closed doors, of which you probably haven’t heard anything yet – even though it is arguably the most lucrative game in the world.
Which game is being referred to? It is Honor of Kings, a MOBA from the Chinese mega-corporation Tencent. Many players in Germany are likely completely unaware of the name of the game – and this is despite the fact that it is the most lucrative game in the world.
Within 4 years after release, the free-to-play game has generated 4 billion Euros in China alone, while in Europe it was nearly 180 million Euros (via SensorTower).
With Honor of Kings: World, the MOBA is also getting an MMORPG spin-off. This likewise mixes Chinese mythology with a futuristic look. At the Game Developers Conference (GDC) 2025, some media representatives were already able to test the game.
You can watch a trailer for Honor of Kings: World here:

MMORPG relies on Monster Hunter for combat instead of Genshin Impact
How does the MMORPG play? Lincoln Carpenter, who was able to try out Honor of Kings: World for PC Gamer, is surprised by the game so far. This is mainly due to the combat – it feels quite different than one might expect.
The game allows you to seamlessly switch between two combat styles, which are based on existing heroes from the MOBA. The concept and design strongly remind one of Genshin Impact, and the UI also gives the impression that it borrowed from there.
Now, one might expect that the combat feels at least somewhat similar to that in Genshin Impact. However, PC Gamer compares it to Monster Hunter:
Weapons have a whole set of combo strings, resulting from chaining heavy attacks and abilities.
The animations give the weapons – including greatswords, bows, and daggers – weight, and attacks cannot be interrupted at will.
When Honor of Kings: World is supposed to be released is not officially confirmed yet. However, the chances are good that it will be released before the announced MMORPG for League of Legends.

After the presentation of the Switch 2, many fans want to know how much the new console costs. Those who, like MeinMMO author Cedric Holmeier, tried in the My Nintendo Store had to wait in line.
The presentation of the new Nintendo Switch 2 was long awaited by fans. After the presentation, the price remained undisclosed. It quickly spread that you could find out the price of the console in the My Nintendo Store. Just like others, I immediately tried my luck there. Instead of a price, I was first met with an overloaded website and then found myself back in the queue.
Together with 22,136 users ahead of me, I waited for access to Nintendo’s website. The hype around the console already seems to be great after the announcement, and all without the announcement of the price. After about 10 minutes of waiting, the price of the Switch 2 and its games was finally revealed to me, and it was surprising.
The price of the games for the Nintendo Switch 2 was also not disclosed in the presentation:

Nintendo Switch 2 vs Switch 1: Specs Comparison
What hardware does the Switch 2 have? As of now (as of 20.01.25), Nintendo has not yet released any information on the hardware. All possible specs of the Switch 2 come from leaks and rumors, including howtogeek.com. This means that the data and specs can change at any time. The data of the Switch 1, on the other hand, is officially known:
Is the Switch 2 better than the Steam Deck? According to rumors, the Switch should offer more power than the Steam Deck: The Steam Deck offers a performance of 1.6 TFLOPS, but the Switch 2 should deliver 1.72 TFLOPS in handheld mode and even 3.09 TFLOPS in docking mode. However, these are all just rumors that Nintendo has not confirmed yet.
Nintendo Switch 2 vs PS5
Is the Switch 2 better than the PS5? No, most likely not when it comes to pure performance. The PS5 offers significantly more power:
The Switch 2 is supposed to deliver 1.72 TFLOPS in handheld mode and even 3.09 TFLOPS in dock mode.
The standard PS5 has a performance of 10.28 TFLOPS.
The PS5 Pro, which was released at the end of 2024, has 16.7 TFLOPS.
However, when it comes to other aspects such as flexibility or child-friendliness, the Switch 2 is likely to perform better than the PS5: Because the Switch 2 still offers a handheld mode and Nintendo has a much more extensive program for children.
The Switch 2 and potential competitors in direct comparison:
Will there be exclusive titles for the Switch 2? Yes, Nintendo has stated in the first trailer that there will be exclusive games for the Switch 2. These will likely be referred to as System Sellers, which will ensure that players buy the new generation.
The following first-party games have been announced for the console:
The new Pokémon: Legends A-Z brings you back to the Kalos region
Which games are compatible with the Switch 2? Most games from the first Switch generation are also compatible with the Switch 2. Both memory cards and digital games are expected to be compatible.
However, Nintendo points out that some games are excluded from compatibility. These are presumably games that rely on specific hardware or components. The new Joy-Cons may be too large for many sports games.
Which third-party games have been announced for the console? The following games are supposed to run on the Switch 2:

The first time Hollow Knight: Silksong was announced was in February 2019. In the middle of the Direct for the Nintendo Switch 2, a release window was casually mentioned.
When will Hollow Knight: Silksong be released? The title was shown for only a few seconds, but it carries very important information. Hollow Knight: Silksong is set to be released in 2025. The game will then come to the Nintendo Switch 2. So by December 31, 2025, the title will finally hit the market.
It is known that Hollow Knight: Silksong will also be available for the first Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. Presumably, the release window also applies to these consoles. However, confirmation is still pending.
Why is the release so highly anticipated? The release caused quite a stir in the Nintendo Direct chat. Players have been waiting for the title to appear since its announcement in February 2019.
Additionally, the predecessor received above-average ratings. Hollow Knight is rated 90 out of 100 points on Metacritic. It is therefore quite likely that the sequel will also be a major hit.

Sean Bean plays the human Boromir in the movies of Lord of the Rings. During filming, he struggled with a fear that is not immediately associated with discussions about Middle-earth.
Sean Bean is a meme in his own right as an actor. He is known for often playing characters who meet their demise during the course of the story. Even in Lord of the Rings, his character Boromir is doomed to this fate. He didn’t get very old after all.
Sean Bean himself was not particularly noted for his bravery during the filming. On the contrary: as soon as scenes were to be filmed at great heights, the actor’s knees began to tremble.

Epic Trailer for The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship
Helicopter in Middle-earth?
What was Sean Bean afraid of? The actor suffers from acrophobia. During the filming of Lord of the Rings, there were numerous filming locations situated on different mountains in New Zealand.
Typically, the cast and crew were flown by helicopters to remote locations. After experiencing this once, however, Sean Bean refused to do so again. His fear of heights was simply too great.
What was the alternative? Of course, director Peter Jackson could not do without Boromir. So Sean Bean decided to hike to the filming location on foot. While everyone else arrived comfortably by helicopter, the actor trudged off in full costume early in the morning to arrive on time.
In the making-of on YouTube, Sean Bean recalls how the rest of the team could observe him from the helicopter:
They always saw me from the helicopter, and I was sweating by the end. It was a real adventure getting over that mountain to the set, but I preferred it that way.
Peter Jackson even compares the sight of the climbing Sean Bean to a “human fly on a wall.” It must have looked quite amusing to see the actor struggling up the mountain.
You could also argue in favor of Sean Bean that he simply took his role seriously and wanted to forego modern frills like helicopters. Or have you ever seen one in Middle-earth?

Nintendo finally revealed what display the Nintendo Switch 2 will offer during the Nintendo Direct. Compared to the older Switch OLED, the Switch 2 once again relies on an LCD unit.
This is what the new display of the Switch 2 features: Nintendo has introduced further details about the Nintendo Switch 2, including features of the display used. The new display of the Switch 2 has the following features:
LCD screen instead of OLED.
7.9 inches. For comparison: The regular Switch has a 6.2-inch display, while the OLED model has a 7-inch display.
Full HD in handheld mode, while the regular Switch previously had a resolution of 720p in handheld mode.
For a while, rumors had speculated that Nintendo would use an LC display for the new Switch 2. The Switch OLED still relied on the OLED display that shares its name. Especially for players who mainly play in handheld mode, upgrading to the OLED version on the Switch 1 is definitely worthwhile. An OLED variant for the Switch 2 may follow later.
The Nintendo Switch 2 will receive several new features, including various social features and a new mouse feature that you can use on the Switch 2. This could be especially beneficial for shooters and other games that rely on precise controls.

Nintendo has introduced a new feature for the Switch 2: GameChat. This saves you the cumbersome attempts to chat with your friends.Also included is a microphone and camera
What is this new feature? The Nintendo Switch 2 is getting a new feature called GameChat. This gives you an integrated voice chat and chat on the Switch that you can actively use to talk to your friends.
Also included is a new camera, which allows you to chat live with your friends while playing. Your face will then be superimposed over the gameplay, like in a livestream. In games like Mario Party Jamboree, your face will be shown in the mini-games themselves.
In Mario Party Jamboree, the camera is also used for some mini-games. For example, you need to jump into the air for one mini-game. The required camera can be purchased as additional accessories for the Switch 2 and currently costs 59.99 euros. It is not yet known if other cameras will also work.
You will also need the Switch Online membership. The microphone is built into the Switch, while you have to purchase the camera separately.
How is the community reacting to the new feature? On x.com, the community is amused by the new feature, which other platforms have been offering as a matter of course for countless years:
@SynthPotato (via x.com) writes: Nintendo discovered party chat after 20 years.
@TheOneConqueror (via x.com) thinks it’s good: That’s a cool feature

The Brit Marc Robert “Caedrel” Lamont is the most-watched streamer on Twitch in 2025. In a video, he now presents his goals for League of Legends, and it sounds somewhat grandiose despite all that he has achieved. The Brit dreams of winning the LoL World Championship or at least trying to.
This is what Caedrel has achieved: The streamer has risen to become the largest streamer in the world on Twitch in recent months. With 30.3 million viewed hours in the last 90 days, he is ahead of the Trump-boosted Asmongold and a Japanese streamer. The content of Caedrel consists solely of League of Legends.
The former professional player grew as a caster on Twitch because he commented as a co-streamer over the official broadcasts of esports games and became more popular than the official channels.
This is likely the goal for Caedrel, the US League for LoL.
Start video
LoL abolishes the LCS!
Caedrel is aiming for participation in a Tier-1 region in 2026
This is now his plan: For 2025, Caedrel still aims to win the regional league and go to the EU Masters. In addition, he is thinking about a bootcamp in South Korea. But essentially, Caedrel wants to continue as he did in the very successful Winter Split, when Los Ratones won everything they could win.
However, he hints that this will not be enough for him in 2026. He says he wants to go on a journey and not always do the same thing.
For 2026, he plans to move Los Ratones to a “Tier-1” league. Since he considers it unlikely to just come up with €20 million for a spot, Caedrel is contemplating a partnership with a team, but he could also imagine moving to America and accepting the guest spot in the league there.
If that doesn’t work out, Caedrel can imagine a world tour with Los Ratones, traveling to each LoL region for a few months and competing against the best teams.
There are 5 Tier-1 leagues in LoL: South Korea (LCK), China (LPL), Europe (LEC); America (LTA) and Asia-Pacific (LCP). These are the professional leagues. Almost all of these leagues are “franchise leagues” modeled after American sports leagues. There is no possibility of promotion or relegation. You have to “buy into” the leagues.
Project Los Ratones is becoming larger and more demanding
This is how he sees his role: Caedrel says that as someone without a degree, the business part of Los Ratones is now very challenging for him.
He founded the team for fun and because he thought it would be cool and provide good content, but he never expected that Los Ratones would become so big.
Now, they will likely enter partnerships with companies and share the revenue with the players.

Caedrel has a recurring dream of the World Championship in LoL
What sounds grandiose? Despite all the success: A passage in his plans sounds a bit grandiose and Caedrel is aware of it.
He says he has had a recurring dream in recent weeks, in which he sees himself on the stage of a world championship sitting and crying:
I don’t know what that means. I’ve had the dream 5 times now. I’m not kidding. Just thinking about it makes me feel… strange.
He says that a few years ago, he considered moving to America to become a head coach there. A part of him wants to at least try to become a world champion once. He feels he can’t live with himself without having tried at least once:
How that will happen – I don’t know. But the only way to get there is to compete in a Tier-1 region.
What’s behind it: With all the love, merely participating in a world championship is already far away for Los Ratones. “A chance to win the World Championship” is not just an unattainable dream for Caedrel, but for any non-Asian.
And that a Brit just becomes the coach of a team from South Korea that competes for the World Championship seems truly far away – as when the idea came up at T1 in 2020 to bring a “wrestler” into the coaching team, the South Korean fans tore the team’s place apart.
But well, Caedrel is 29 and still has plans. However, dominating a league consisting mainly of amateur players with former professional players and crushing the 32-year-old NoWay is, of course, an achievement, but not comparable to winning a World Championship in LoL against people like Chovy or Faker: The new cool team of LoL has 180,000 viewers on Twitch, crushing a German streamer

Where can I find Uniques? Uniques drop in various activities in Path of Exile 2, especially from bosses. There are items with the modifier “Increased Rarity of Found Items” that increase your chance of Unique drops. You can also trade for specific Uniques. Here we explain how the trading system works and what you need to consider.
Most of the Uniques listed here drop randomly. However, there are bosses and activities where you can get specific Uniques (via IGN):

How do I craft Uniques? With the “Orb of Possibilities,” you can transform regular items into unique items. You receive the orb as a drop or by collecting 10 fragments of possibilities. There are a few things to keep in mind when crafting:
Upgrading works only on regular items, which means those that are not magical or rare. Keep this in mind before planning to upgrade certain items.
You will only receive uniques that drop randomly – none that are tied to specific bosses or events.
The orb can upgrade regular items – but it can also destroy them.
With the Orb of Possibilities, you improve a regular item to a unique.
Uniques can have a huge impact on builds and change the way you play. However, the chosen ascendancy also plays a crucial role. Which subclasses, known as ascendancies, are the strongest and what they can do, you can see in our overview: Path of Exile 2 Tier List: All Ascendancies ranked with their best build

The developers of Total War: Warhammer 3 (Steam, Epic Games Store) have announced the first information about the next DLC. One of the three new legendary commanders has also been briefly introduced: a seductive snake woman with 6 arms.
Where does this information come from? It comes from a dev chat of the developers at Creative Assembly on YouTube. Among other things, it discusses new patches and the last beta that was supposed to adjust the campaign AI. However, the most interesting information for many was probably about the new DLC.
As expected, after Tzeentch, Nurgle, and Khorne, it is finally Slaanesh’s turn to be supplied with new content. The Chaos God of decadence, lust, and excess is still only represented by one faction in the game.
A trailer that “creates a desire” for more can be seen here:

Dechala, the Denied One for the new DLC confirmed
What new content has been announced so far? Of the 3 new factions of the DLC, one has already been announced: Slaanesh is getting reinforcements from Dechala, who bears the title “The Denied One”.
This is what we already know about the new legendary commander:
Dechala was once an elf, but her body has completely mutated: From the waist down, she has a snake body and her torso holds 6 arms, each wielding a sword.
According to the developers, Dechala is a deadly fighter on the battlefield, striking quickly and precisely and is very versatile.
Dechala’s faction is the “Tormentors,” her starting position on the map is still unknown.
Despite her monstrous appearance, Dechala’s beauty is not easily dismissed.
Creative Assembly has also introduced some new units:
The “Champions of Slaanesh” have, like Dechala, a snake body, but only 4 arms. They take on a similar role on the battlefield.
The “Pleasureseekers” are demonettes riding on powerful demonic snakes.
The developers haven’t shown any additional units yet, but they have shared a little more about how Dechala will play in the campaign. True to Slaanesh, Dechala focuses on domination over her enemies, but in an even more aggressive manner than N’kari’s faction.
