Players on PS5 and Xbox cannot believe that the new game from FromSoftware is not coming to their consoles

Nintendo has developed an exclusive title for its new console “Nintendo Switch 2” that will particularly make fans of Bloodborne drop their jaws to the floor. The Duskbloods is supposed to be a new game from the FromSoftware developers, and the similarity to Soulsborne cannot be denied.

What exactly is The Duskbloods? The new title from the game studio FromSoftware is said to be a PvPvE game that clearly focuses on multiplayer, similar to Elden Ring: Nightreign. In total, up to 8 players can compete against each other or fight together against enemies. You take on the role of one of the “Twilight Bloodlines,” beings who have gained superhuman powers through the power of their special blood.

The art style and story strongly resemble Bloodborne. One might think Duskbloods is a sequel, but it is a new brand that is supposed to be exclusive to the Nintendo Switch 2. After the reveal, fans already had enough time to react to the game, but what are the opinions of the fans?

Bloodborne 2 could convince if it weren’t an exclusive

How have fans reacted to the new title? With mixed feelings. Many players were astonished and immediately thought of a sequel or prequel to Bloodborne. The excitement for a successor was immense, especially among those who have been waiting for 10 years. However, when the Nintendo exclusivity was revealed, the players’ excitement dampened. The following opinions can be found on Reddit:

  • “This makes no sense at all. How much did Nintendo pay them for that? I am very, very disappointed that From is making another exclusive game. They made huge revenues with ER [Elden Ring].” – Appropriate_Army_780
  • “I can’t believe that Bloodborne 2 really exists and that it is exclusive to the Switch. Who among you used a monkey’s paw to make this happen?” – ComaCrow
  • “I can’t believe that Fromsoft is making another exclusive game after the Souls franchise and Elden Ring have been successful on multiple platforms for all these years.” – field_of_lettuce
  • “Since it’s been so long since they released an (major) exclusive game and their last multiplatform games sold extremely well, I really thought they were done with that. It feels bad to have been wrong.” – 79792348978

When will the game be released? The Duskbloods is set to release in 2026. A specific date is not known. Since the game will only be available on the Switch, fans of FromSoftware games will be forced to purchase the Nintendo Switch 2 if they want to try it out.

Even with Bloodborne, the exclusivity was not well received by fans of the genre – especially by PC players. Now that The Duskborn is also focusing on exclusivity, it is yet another disappointment for many fans.

It remains to be seen how well the game will perform at release. Elden Ring: Nightreign at least offers an alternative for a co-op game from the FromSoftware studio. You can find more about it here: Elden Ring: Nightreign – All info on release, gameplay, and price

A new mech game from a big studio starts terribly on Steam: Here’s what the developers say

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.

They are glad to welcome so many players.

What is the idea of the game? Steel Hunters is supposed to be a PvPvE battle game with mechs. Gigantic robots are meant to compete against each other.

Players should already be able to start with 7 different mechs, with 3 maps available.

It is planned that the launch in Early Access will be the soft launch, and everything earned can be kept.

Wargaming surely envisioned April 2nd differently; early reports made Steel Hunters look quite promising. Let’s see how quickly the experienced studio can improve here: The creators of World of Tanks put you back into steel machines, but this time it’s a shooter with mechs instead of tanks

We knew that a car game would raise prices in gaming for everyone: But it’s not GTA 6, it’s damn Mario Kart

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).

This is surprising, because back in January an analyst reported on a new possible price trend for games, which was expected to be set not by Nintendo, but by Rockstar with GTA 6.

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.

Over 300 Employees Rise Up Against Microsoft, Including Testers of the MMORPG ESO

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.

What is the reaction in the community? In the Elder Scrolls Online subreddit, the players’ response to the situation is quite unanimous:

  • 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.

Instead of Monster Hunter Wilds, a monster hunting game is coming to Switch 2 that brutally flopped on Steam

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.

In September 2023, we reported on MeinMMO that EA was basically giving up on the title, and indeed not much happened in the game in the following months.

Some regretted the quick demise of Wild Hearts at the time because the negative atmosphere at the release was primarily due to performance issues and bugs. Those who gave Wild Hearts a chance praised the game to high heavens.

It will be interesting to see if Wild Hearts can now use its second chance for a fresh start. The comments on YouTube are mostly friendly:

  • “Oh boy, the game is still alive.”
  • “Bro, we’re so back.”
  • “I’m glad it’s not dead.”
  • “I’m glad to see competition for Monster Hunter Wild.”

As the developers announced, the Switch version, Wild Hearts S, is intended for 1 to 4 players.

One of the fans who really liked Wild Hearts at the 2023 release is MeinMMO’s Benedict Grothaus: I log in to Wild Hearts every day just to die

Schedule 1: All Cheats in the List – How to Open the Console

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

Since the game is only available in English, you must change your keyboard layout to English to open the console. 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.

Not everyone wants to go into the menu all the time to find a useful cheat. Therefore, we provide you with a table of all cheats and explain what functions they offer.

That was all the known cheats for Schedule 1. There is also the possibility to modify your game with Cheat Engine. However, we would advise against it, as you could potentially get banned.

With the console, most things in the game can already be adjusted, which makes the use of Cheat Engine unnecessary. If you do decide to do so, you do it at your own risk.

A new MMORPG has been introduced: You’ve never heard of it, but it’s a massive game behind it

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.

I wanted to know what the price of the Nintendo Switch 2 would be and suddenly I find myself in a queue

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:

  • On the day of the pre-order, the membership must be active.
  • Only the holder of the membership, not family members, is allowed to pre-order.

Nintendo Switch 2: Joy-Cons, Hardware and Specs

What can the new Joy-Cons do? The new Joy-Cons are magnetically connected to the console. In the Nintendo Direct on April 2, 2025, it was also announced that they should have a new C-button.

This activates a built-in voice chat, through which the screen can also be shared with teammates. The feature is expected to become a paid service from March 31, 2026, and can only be used with a Nintendo Online membership.

In addition, the controllers can also be used like a computer mouse, as speculated beforehand. A flat surface is required for this. The sticks will be used to simulate the left and right clicks of a real mouse.

Will the Switch 2 have an LCD or OLED screen? The Nintendo Switch 2 will have a pure LCD screen. Whether an OLED version is planned is currently unknown. More about this can be read here:

How much power does the Switch 2 have? So far, Nintendo has not released any official benchmarks or information about the hardware used. Current leaks suggest that the performance of the Switch 2 will be between the Steam Deck and the PS4 Pro.

In hard numbers: The Steam Deck offers a performance of 1.6 teraflops (short: TFLOPS), while the PS4 Pro offers a performance of 4.2 teraflops. The Switch 2 is expected to perform between the two mentioned consoles. What significance teraflops have for players can be read on MeinMMO.

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:

Nintendo Switch 2 vs Steam Deck

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.

Nintendo Switch 2: Games, Compatibility

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.

  • Mario Kart World
  • Pokémon-Legenden: Z-A
  • Donky Kong Bananza
  • Kirby Air Riders

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.

Hollow Knight Silksong leaves players waiting for 6 years, casually receives a release window

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.

What is Silksong? Silksong is, like its predecessor, a 2D Metroidvania with jump’n’run and combat elements. There is a new protagonist named Hornet, who is more agile than her predecessor. She lands in the unknown kingdom of Pharloom. There, she must reach the top of a glowing citadel.

It is once again possible to craft powerful tools and complete exciting quests. You will need to hunt rare monsters or solve ancient mysteries.

There are new enemies, over 150 in total, and an additional mode where permanent death is ever-present. Even during the Xbox Direct, the title was the highlight: The most popular trailer of the Xbox show has nothing to do with Diablo 4 or Starfield

One of the companions from The Lord of the Rings was anything but brave on set and had to climb a mountain for hours as a result

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.

However, the human shows that he is a brave warrior, albeit not without his flaws. After all, he falls under the influence of the ring and even tries to take it from Frodo. You can find out how Boromir ranks among the nine companions on MeinMMO.

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?

The Nintendo Switch 2 features an LCD screen and forgoes OLED

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.
  • Performance of up to 120 FPS, if the games officially support it. Whether Elden Ring supports 120 FPS on the Switch 2 is still uncertain.

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.

You can now also find the official specifications for the Switch 2 listed on MeinMMO.

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.

Release date of the Nintendo Switch 2 revealed – and it won’t be long now

Finally, we know when the Nintendo Switch 2 will be released. The Nintendo Direct just revealed when the console will be released. MeinMMO tells you when the hybrid console will be available.

When will the console be available? The Nintendo Switch 2 will be released on June 5, 2025. So you won’t have to wait much longer to buy the console. It is expected that pre-orders will start soon.

There is now also first information about pre-orders, the price of the console, and the games. Unfortunately, it is not possible for all interested parties to order the console directly.

Nintendo has introduced a new feature for the Switch 2 during the Direct: a mouse feature. Many viewers are excited about it.

The Nintendo Switch 2 gets a feature it has long needed, using your face for it

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.

Twitch streamer wins the European Championship in LoL with his team, reveals what comes next

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.

At the end of 2024, he founded his own esports team, filled with 3 former elite players, an unconventionally operating Twitch streamer, and an unknown jungler: This team “Los Ratones” won a regional league in LoL and from there the European Championship.

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.

As the German coach Grabbz recently explained, the gap between western LoL and the strong teams from Asia is huge and even larger than many believe.

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.

Although it is true that a member of Los Ratones, Rekkles, actually won the World Championship, he didn’t play a second.

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.

Crafting Uniques

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
