The YouTube chat goes wild because the Nintendo Switch 2 gets a mouse

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

What is this feature? The new Joy-Cons can now be used as a mouse on the Switch 2, just like on a PC. The mouse control should be enhanced with the integrated gyro sensors.

How does the chat react? In the English-speaking chat, players excitedly write “Mouse, Mouse, Mouse” showing how thrilled they are about the new feature that you can use on the Switch 2.

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.
  • @TheOneConqueror (via x.com) thinks it’s good: That’s a cool feature

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.

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

Locations of Uniques

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):

  • Endgame Activity “The Simulacrum”
    • Collapsing Horizon Wyrm Staff
    • Perfidious Knight’s Armor
    • Assailum, Closed Helm
    • Melting Maelstrom, Ultimate Mana Flask
  • The Arbiter of Ash (Boss in the Burning Monolith, Atlas of Worlds)
    • Holy Flame Shrine Scepter
    • Morior Invictus, Grand Robe
    • Ab Aeterno, Grand Greaves

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

The great strategy game of Warhammer on Steam dives deeper into the realm of joy, featuring a beautifully designed serpent with 6 arms

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:

Total War: Warhammer 3 – Der Trailer zur Slaanesh-Fraktion

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.

Finally, Creative Assembly revised the two-headed demon Kairos in an update. Along with some changes to his gameplay mechanics, there is also a new skill tree for the wizard, which was very well received by Tzeentch fans.

How hot can a graphics card get before I need to worry?

Graphics cards can get hot under load. But how hot should a graphics card get at most before you need to worry?

The hardware in your gaming PC can quickly get very hot under load or in the summer. But how many degrees are actually okay, and at what temperatures should you start worrying about your graphics card?

MeinMMO explains everything you should know about the temperatures surrounding your graphics card and what is advisable.

Start video
Battlemage: Check out Intel’s new graphics cards in the video

The official temperature limit is above the recommended temperatures

What are the official figures from the manufacturers? Manufacturers list the temperatures for graphics cards as “maximum operating temperature.” This is the maximum that graphics cards can reach, but not necessarily should:

  • For Nvidia, the maximum operating temperature is between 95 and 100 degrees.
  • For AMD, the maximum operating temperature ranges between 90 and 100 degrees.
  • For Intel, a maximum temperature of 100 degrees is stated.

If you want to be absolutely sure, check the specifications of the GPU from the respective manufacturer. Depending on the performance class (budget, mid-range, high-end), the numbers can be different.

Generally, it is better for the graphics card if it does not permanently reach its temperature limit. High temperatures can lead to wear and tear over time, which makes your hardware age faster.

How hot should my graphics card get at most? Basically, there are two situations to distinguish: Is your graphics card idle and has nothing to do, or is it under load and has to calculate things? The following numbers are considered advisable for graphics cards:

  • At idle: Between 30 °C and 55 °C
  • Under load: Between 70 °C and 85 °C

If your graphics card regularly exceeds 85 degrees or even reaches 90 degrees, we would recommend optimizing the cooling in the case.

In general: It depends on the model of your graphics card. Because each performance class handles temperatures differently well: An RTX 5090 can operate at 90 degrees without any problems, an entry-level graphics card will throttle much earlier.

If your graphics card is permanently too hot, it can shorten the lifespan of your GPU

What happens if my graphics card gets too hot? If your graphics card gets too hot, it reduces its performance to cope better with the temperatures. This means a reduced framerate for you.

In the long run, constantly high temperatures can damage the internal components, decompose the thermal paste, and increase the wear of the fans. Ultimately, this shortens the lifespan of your graphics card.

How can I check my temperature on the PC? This is particularly easy with the free software “HWMonitor,” which you can download directly from the manufacturer.

For 35 years, PC users have known: when they see blue, it’s all over – but that’s exactly what Microsoft wants to change now

Microsoft has announced changes to the legendary Blue Screen of Death. The company shows how the error screen in Windows 11 will look in the future. A step that aims to redefine both the user experience and the aesthetics of Windows.

On March 28, 2025, Microsoft announced a significant redesign of the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) in Windows 11 on their blog. This change is intended to modernize the design of the error message and simplify the user experience. Microsoft’s goal is to increase user productivity and get them back to work faster.

While some designs change, there are always symbols whose meanings are hardly known. Here you can see what the N symbol on your phone means.

Start video
What does the N symbol on your phone mean?

From Blue to Black: The New Blue Screen of Death

What will change with the BSOD? The most noticeable change concerns the color of the BSOD. In the Insider preview builds, Microsoft uses a green error screen (GSOD) for testing purposes. However, this does not mean that the final version will remain green. Current announcements and leaks suggest that the BSOD in the final Windows 11 version will be black instead of blue.

Microsoft has also removed elements like the smiley and the QR code that were included in earlier versions of the BSOD. The new version will only display the stop code and the faulty process, reducing the error message to its essentials. These changes currently only apply to the Windows Insider Preview version and are not yet part of the final Windows 11 version.

This is the reason for the change: Microsoft explains that simplifying the design to match Windows 11 should help users orient themselves more quickly after a system crash and become productive again. The changes aim to minimize unnecessary information so that users can quickly understand the error and get back to their work faster. The design has also been adjusted to better align with the minimalist approach of Windows 11.

Simplifying the error message is intended to make it easier for users to recognize the error code and take immediate action. However, it remains to be seen whether these changes will actually improve the user experience in the long term.

Windows 95: A Nostalgic Comeback

While Microsoft is ushering in a new era with Windows 11, the old Windows 95 is making a small comeback. CrystalMark Retro, a benchmarking software, has received an update that now also supports older Windows versions such as Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT. This now makes it possible to measure the performance of old machines and compare them with modern systems. The software evaluates various aspects, including CPU performance, graphics, and disk speed, which is particularly interesting for tech enthusiasts.

Although Microsoft is focusing on Windows 11, the community ensures that older operating systems like Windows 95 are not forgotten. This shows how strong nostalgia plays a role with old systems. Some even remember an old key that allowed them to use Windows XP for free.

My Final Boss in Monster Hunter Wilds is Not a Monster, But a Small, Snuggly Creature

Monster Hunter Wilds is filled with various challenges. Whether you want to hunt monsters as quickly as possible, chase after achievements, or assemble the perfect outfit. However, MyMMO editor Alexander faced a completely different challenge: the damned fluffy chicken.

What is the fluffy chicken? Those who have played Monster Hunter World, especially those who have collected trophies, know it: The damned fluffy chicken (Engl. Phantom Bird). It’s no coincidence that you received the achievement “I’m going insane” when you caught one – because that’s exactly what happened when you dedicated yourself to this task.

The animals were incredibly shy and disappeared very quickly if you approached them without a well-thought-out tactic. Moreover, they appeared extremely rarely. They could be found on the backs of smaller monsters and could be caught there skillfully for a huge chunk of research points, the trophy, and as a quest objective.

When I was told that these pesky chickens could also be caught in Monster Hunter Wilds, I was immediately excited. My hunting instinct was awakened – I WANTED this chicken.

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

The cult chickens up close

Presumably as a reference to this unspeakable torment in Monster Hunter World, the latest installment has a whole bunch of fluffy chickens in the village of Suja. There you can watch them live and in color as they sit almost innocently among baskets or run around the pig Poogie. You can’t catch them there.

My gaze falls on this fluffy chicken in the basket shelf, as it grins at me maliciously and my mission is clear: I must pursue this search.

Sure, at the moment you can’t specifically release the captured endemic creatures as pets anywhere, like in your own room in Monster Hunter World. Nevertheless: Just the feeling of having caught the fluffy ball again would be priceless.

According to reports, one should be able to find them in the ruins of Wyveria. Just like back then in Monster Hunter World, they should be sitting on the backs of smaller monsters there. So I set out to search.

Missing in the ruins of Wyveria

Still full of vitality and eagerness, I hunted the cute fluffy balls. They had to be somewhere if others had already seen them. I knew it would be a torment again – after all, it had cost me endless nerves in World to catch the little beast in the net.

Hours passed at first, then days, and even weeks. No trace of a fluffy chicken in the wild. Gradually, my courage waned.

Maybe it wasn’t meant for me to catch this noble creature. Maybe, yes maybe, I just hadn’t searched properly yet. I spent many more hours in Wyveria – without success.

But I will not give up! I will keep my eyes open. If the damned – uh, the cutest of all fluffy chickens in Monster Hunter Wilds really exists outside of Suja, I will find it and make it mine.

Or it will remain an eternal mystery and do justice to its English name “Phantom Bird” by planting itself in the minds of the hunters and not actually existing.

Have you perhaps already spotted a fluffy chicken in the wild or even caught one? Do you have any tips on how to get them into the net? Feel free to share it in the comments and free me from my suffering.

A similar nemesis had MyMMO editor Leya Jankowski with a small blue mouse in the beta version of Monster Hunter Wilds.

It is now known that it is a sandus, which is still difficult to catch and even brings an achievement with it. Here you can find out how to find and catch the little sparkling creature: Monster Hunter Wilds: Catching the sandus and securing the trophy – Here’s how to find it

Hunger Games: The 10 Strongest Winners of All Time in the Power Ranking

Surviving in the deadly and sadistic Hunger Games from The Hunger Games is not easy. The more dangerous are the tributes who have survived as winners. But who among them is the strongest?

What was the ranking based on? In the history of Panem, there have been a total of 75 Hunger Games. Each arena posed a unique challenge. Just as varied are the winners. While some won through pure combat strength, others hid or outsmarted their opponents.

Who is considered the strongest candidate is, of course, very subjective. Feel free to share your opinion in the comments!

We mainly oriented ourselves to the following questions:

  • How strong is the person in direct combat?
  • Who can survive best?
  • Who is generally the most dangerous?

Place 10: Beetee Latier

Hunger Games - Beetee

Beetee is physically the weakest candidate on this list. The clever inventor from District 3 was rather scrawny as a child, which is why he was not given much chance in the arena.

But he used his intelligence and built an electric trap that killed the remaining six tributes in his year all at once and won the games.

Even when he had to return to the arena in honor of the third Jubilee Anniversary, that is, the 75th Hunger Games, he utilized the power of electricity. With the help of his plan, the arena was destroyed and an escape was made possible.

So even if Beetee is not a classic fighter, we simply have to include him in this list. His intelligence combined with a certain calculation makes him extremely dangerous, and one should better not tangle with him. Who knows when he will invent the next super-weapon?  

  • Winner of: 34th Hunger Games
  • Age at victory: approx. 15-18

EA FC 25: How to Perform the Bicycle Kick for Spectacular Goals

In EA FC 25 guarantees spectacular goals with the bicycle kick. In Ultimate Team, you even need it to complete a task. On MeinMMO, we explain how to perform the bicycle kick and which players are suitable for it.

What is the bicycle kick? The bicycle kick describes an acrobatic shot on goal where the player stands with their back to the goal and directs the ball mid-air with a volley towards the opponent’s net. In this move, your player is almost horizontal in the air and propels the ball with one leg over their head.

How to perform the bicycle kick in FC 25: To perform a bicycle kick in FC 25, you need to hold down the L2 button or LT button when charging the shot (circle button/B button) during a high pass/cross. 2 of the 4 charge bars are sufficient to give the shot enough power. Your player will position themselves beforehand to bring the ball towards the opponent’s goal with a bicycle kick.

For preparing a bicycle kick, it is best to use a normal cross into the penalty area (square button/X button), which you deliver near the goal line. The ball is then played slightly behind your strikers. This offers the best chances for the player to execute a bicycle kick.

Corner kicks are also suitable because you can play precisely behind your strikers during these set pieces. The best set-piece takers from the center-back position in FC 25 can be found on MeinMMO.

Tips for a Perfect Start in EA FC 25 – Ultimate Team

2 Affordable Bicycle Kick Experts in Ultimate Team

Which players can perform the bicycle kick? Basically, any player with the input commands and the right timing can execute a bicycle kick. However, there is a small trick to increase the success rate of these spectacular finishes.

For the most dangerous bicycle kicks, you need the physical playstyle “Acrobatics” in silver or gold. Acrobatics helps ensure that your volleys, which include the bicycle kick, are executed with greater precision. Additionally, Acrobatics triggers the bicycle kick automatically in certain situations, which could assist you with the execution and timing.

With these 2 affordable players, you’ll succeed at scoring with a bicycle kick: Elye Wahi from Eintracht Frankfurt and Rodrigo Muniz from Fulham FC are two strikers who possess the Acrobatics playstyle in gold. Both cost 600 and 350 coins on the transfer market in Ultimate Team (as of April 2, 2025) and are therefore strong options for completing the task of scoring with a bicycle kick.

For which task do you need the bicycle kick? Scoring a goal with a bicycle kick is a live objective in the task complex “Big Dreams”. For completing all tasks, you will receive midfielder Dewsbury-Hall (Chelsea FC) as a dynamic Road to the Final who can collect further upgrades.

We recommend completing the task in Squad Battles, as you can determine the difficulty level of the opponents. Alternatively, you can play a friendly match with a friend and support each other with the task.

Don’t forget that for the bicycle kick task in Ultimate Team, you need to include a Dreamchaser in your starting lineup. Otherwise, the goal won’t count for the task. All Dreamchasers and their upgrades can also be found on MeinMMO.

The German Twitch now sounds like Breaking Bad, as everyone is playing the new hype game on Steam

The German Twitch is transforming into a drug lab due to a hyped game on Steam. The streamers are all playing together, and the dialogues between them sound like something out of an episode of Breaking Bad.

What kind of game is it? It is Schedule I, a single-player and co-op game that revolves around selling drugs. Players produce the goods by growing drugs, which are then packaged into bags and dealt on the streets.

In doing so, they not only have to watch out for the police but also from other criminal gangs. They are not pleased about suddenly having competition.

On Steam, the indie game is skyrocketing. It is a great way to bridge the wait until GTA 6 and has already attracted 400,000 players.

Warning: Schedule I is a simulation in which you engage in criminal activities. Drug abuse should not be underestimated and can have serious consequences. If you need help, you can find support at the health promotion campaign No Power to Drugs: www.kmdd.de or at the addiction hotline 01806 313031 (charges apply).

Here you can watch the trailer for Schedule I:

Start video
Schedule I shows in the trailer what the simulation of criminal life looks like

“When will you be done with your meth stuff?”

Why does Twitch sound like an episode of Breaking Bad? Since the game is about drugs and their production as well as dealing, the dialogue of the playing Twitch streamers is accordingly. Jesse and Heisenberg manufacture meth in the drug lab in the series Breaking Bad; the Twitch streamers can also do that in Schedule I after some gameplay time.

German Twitch Schedule I
This is what a part of the German Twitch looked like on April 1, 2025, at 21:33.

The Twitch streamers Papaplatte and Reeze, for example, have already had several dialogues that could be taken from the series. In one Twitch clip, they discuss that they need to hire more dealers, and Papaplatte asks Reeze: “When will you be done with the meth stuff?”.

Also, the Twitch experience and the dialogues that Twitch streamer NiklasWilson had with streamers Rohat and Jussef look quite similar. Niklas tells his Twitch colleague Jussef: “I’m going to the gas station. You need to pack up.” and later says, “Does anyone have green crack?”.

Schedule I creates hype on Twitch: In the last 7 days, several Twitch streamers have enjoyed Schedule I. The game has been watched over 860,000 hours on German Twitch (via sullygnome) and the most viewed German Twitch streamer was Papaplatte with a peak audience of 46,813 (via sullygnome).

The game thrives on the synergies of the Twitch streamers coming together through the game. The possibilities of the game and the type of streamers create an entertaining mix.

A similar phenomenon occurred with the game Among Us: Indie game from 2018 suddenly becomes a hit on Twitch, making streamers go completely crazy

The German Twitch is often excited about the simplest games. Just like a game where you look at images from Google Maps and then guess where in the world you are: A 12-year-old browser game celebrates its second comeback on Twitch and German streamers are dominating worldwide

A game publisher is the only one unafraid of GTA 6, wants to release a game on the same day, at the same time

GTA 6 not only generated excitement among fans who have been waiting for a new installment for years. At the same time, the release window of the game causes significant stress for other publishers in planning their own projects. However, one publisher makes a bold statement.

Why do publishers have such respect for GTA 6? According to forecasts, GTA 6 is expected to be one of the biggest entertainment releases of all time, which would completely overshadow other games that might be released at the same time. For this reason, many publishers are willing to postpone their own project releases by a few weeks to avoid this time frame.

In this anxious mood among game publishers, however, there is one who does not fear GTA 6 as the final boss. Instead, they makes a statement on X that leaves other publishers in the shadows.

Here you can see the trailer for the long-awaited and feared GTA 6 from Rockstar Games:

Start video

“Let them know you are not afraid”

Which publisher dares to make the statement? The post is from the publisher Devolver Digital, who has published games like Inscryption (2021) and Cult of the Lamb (2022). They do not share the opinion of their colleagues who are willing to be influenced by the release of GTA 6. Instead, they state the following:

“We will release a game on the very same day and at the same time as GTA 6.” (Devolver Digital via X)

Screenshot of the post from Devolver Digital
Screenshots of the original post from Devolver Digital on X

What is the reaction to this? With this provocatively relevant statement, Devolver Digital is unafraid to mock the attitudes of other publishers. This receives a humorous yet enthusiastic response in the comments.

  • TripleAndy suggests: “Make sure it’s an open-world shooter.”
  • ChitoGamingLive says: “Let them know you are not afraid.”
  • And Synth Potato finds that it would even make total sense: “When you think about it, it makes business sense. Usually it’s a game against four others, but if released alongside GTA 6, it will be a 1v1.”

Why is the release of GTA 6 such a milestone? Gamers have been waiting for over 10 years for a sequel to GTA 5, which was released in September 2013. According to an analysis by DFC Intelligence, the revenue from the new GTA is expected to be double that of its predecessor within the first 12 months after release. You can learn more about this analysis and forecast in this article here on MeinMMO: A report says: GTA 6 will be more successful on release than the two biggest films of 2024 combined

A 63-Year-Old Game Has 138,000 Players on Steam Because Pirates Are Stealing a Trendy Game

The 63-year-old game Spacewar has set a new record, but there could be players behind it who are pirating a Steam hit.

What kind of 63-year-old game is this? On Steam, the game Spacewar has just set a new record for concurrent active players. At its peak, the game recorded over 138,000 players.

The curious thing is: Spacewar is, alongside “Tennis for Two”, one of the first video games ever developed and was released back in 1962 – even 10 years before “Pong”, the first commercially successful video game.

Spacewar is actually a multiplayer game in which two players control two spaceships and orbit a star. This star has its own gravitational pull, and players must try to avoid colliding with the celestial body. Whoever crashes first loses.

Start video
This is what the gameplay of the 62-year-old game Spacewar looks like

Spacewar as a disguise for pirates

What does the new hype game have to do with it? Spacewar is used in the API (Application Programming Interface) of Steam as an example application, which is why a fully functional version of the game is available for free to every Steam user.

Using Spacewar, developers who want to publish a game on Steam can test the various APIs and Steamworks features. This includes things like voice chat and game search, as well as leaderboards, statistics, and achievements (via steamgames.com).

Since every Steam user can play Spacewar and it has access to all Steamworks features, it is a popular disguise among pirates to play online games while utilizing all of Steam’s online functions. The pirates pretend to Steam that their illegal copy of a game is actually Spacewar.

The recent surge in player numbers for Spacewar began around March 24, 2025. On the same day, the game “Schedule I” was released, which has since become a Steam hit. Therefore, it is likely that many Spacewar players are actually playing a pirated version of Schedule I.

You can trace the increase in player numbers for Spacewar here:

Spacewars player count increase via SteamDB

New hype game makes you a criminal

What kind of game is Schedule I? Schedule I is a new game that is currently trending on Steam and with viewers on Twitch. It was released on March 24 and has shown strong numbers since then:

  • It peaked at 414,000 players on Steam (via SteamDB)
  • 98% of the over 42,000 reviews on Steam are positive
  • In the past 7 days, about 65,000 viewers were watching streams of Schedule on Twitch (via Sullygnome)

In the game, you take on the role of a small drug dealer who is starting their own business in a new city. You produce various goods and deliver them to your customers. Over time, you can acquire more properties and hire staff as well as street dealers to distribute your goods more effectively to the citizens: New game channels its inner Breaking Bad and is thus more successful on Steam than Ubisoft’s new AAA game

The new GO Pass April confuses Pokémon GO trainers with different tasks – What is the reason for this?

In Pokémon GO a new feature is currently being tested. This is causing confusion in the community.

What is the GO Pass? The GO Pass is a type of Battle Pass that was already active during the GO Tour 2025. Since April 1st, it is now available in a free and a paid version again in the game.

On social media, some trainers report how different the details of the pass are for them. It can not only lead to different ways to level up in the pass but even to different rewards.

Start video
Pokémon GO: What’s in the new Season Powerful and Masterful

Tasks, Points, Rewards

Availability of the Pass: The biggest difference with the GO Pass is the availability itself. While there are some trainers and regions where the pass is not yet available, it is available in others.

On Reddit, several trainers from the US East Coast report that they do not have a GO Pass. Trainers living in Australia report varying situations. Some trainers have access to the GO Pass, while others do not.

Points for Rank Up: If you want to level up in the GO Pass, you need to collect 100 points for each rank. You earn points for catching regular and legendary monsters as well as for hatching eggs. Reports indicate that there are differences in this as well on Reddit.

The value of how many points you earn for activities varies. The following variations are known:

  • Catching a legendary Pokémon: 50 points; hatching an egg: 20 points; catching a regular monster: 2 points
  • Catching a legendary Pokémon: 100 points; hatching an egg: 40 points; catching a regular monster: 5 points

Similarly, the amount of points that can be collected daily can vary. There are limits of 125 points, 250 points, and 300 points. The last two limits can occur for trainers who have increased points for catching monsters and hatching eggs.

Daily and Weekly Tasks: In the GO Pass, you can have daily and weekly tasks that earn you additional points. Differences can be seen here as well. Some trainers only have weekly tasks, some only have daily tasks, and others have neither.

Rewards: There are also differences in the rewards. As seen in another post on Reddit, some trainers can receive the final reward at rank 50 while others can do so at rank 100. In the paid version, this involves the Lucky Trinket, which caused frustration for trainers in the past.

Why are there differences? As Niantic stated at the start of the feature, the feature is currently being tested in the game. This can also explain the differences among trainers.

During large rollouts of new features, it is common in Pokémon GO for the functionalities to first be made available only to a portion of the trainers. Therefore, not all trainers may have the new feature in the game.

Tests in which new features are even tested in different variants among trainers have not been conducted in the past, but it is not particularly surprising for a larger new feature.

Whether and when the GO Pass will be fully available in the game for all trainers is not yet known. The results of the current test could influence how the functionality finds its final path into the game – if the test goes well.

Regardless of whether you already have this feature in the game or not: the events in April are available for all players. There will again be various contents and bonuses that will be active in the events. When the events take place, you can see in our overview of all events in April 2025 in Pokémon GO.

A 17-year-old teenager has built a foldable phone from recycled materials and it really works

Foldable display smartphones are quite rare and also very expensive. A 17-year-old student from China has now proven that one can build such a device by oneself.

Foldable display smartphones are rarely encountered, primarily due to the high price: For the Galaxy Z Fold 6, you currently have to pay at least €1,250. However, MeinMMO editor Jürgen Horn firmly believed that foldable smartphones will revolutionize MMO gaming.

A 17-year-old student from China developed a foldable smartphone at home from old phones. Overall, he spent 2,000 Yuan (about €255).

17-year-old builds a new foldable model from old phones

What did he do? The 17-year-old Chinese student Lan Bowen bought a 3D printer for around €250 and began developing his smartphone at home.

He collected old devices from his family members and disassembled them to obtain the components. He then created 3D models of the future phone’s casing and also for the hinge so that the phone can be folded. In a roughly six-minute video on the social network Baidu, he explained the individual steps.

A short excerpt from his video can be viewed directly on X.com with English subtitles. Here you can also see that the phone works perfectly in daily life.

He explained that the most difficult part was shutting down the display when the phone was folded. Because that initially did not work. He explains in his video:

I changed my design, conducted many tests, and damaged several screens before I could solve this problem.

However, there are a few peculiarities:

  • On the one hand, the phone folds in the “wrong” direction: While known phones fold so that the display is on the inside, here the display folds outwards. This makes the display more susceptible to damage.
  • On the other hand, the device is thicker than the devices sold on the market, as it is 1.6 cm thick when folded. In comparison: The Galaxy Fold 5 is 1.34 centimeters thick when folded.

Is the project now completed? By the way, he has not yet finished his project, as he confirms himself.

My phone is in a very primitive stage with many shortcomings. But the good news is that it is compatible with all the functions of a normal mobile phone.

With the Motorola Razr+ (or Motorola Razr 40 Ultra), a new foldable phone has hit the market. Most testers are enthusiastic about the new device. Many say it is the first affordable “Foldable.” You can read more about it directly on our site MeinMMO: Why is a foldable phone for €1,000 impressing so many testers around the world?

I can’t watch an anime highlight of the upcoming season anymore – because of an embarrassing cliché

MeinMMO editor Jasmin Beverungen discovered the anime Fire Force a few years ago. The story and art style instantly captivated her. However, one character was so annoying that she had to stop watching the series.

Fire Force is one of the biggest highlights of the upcoming anime season. In spring 2025, the anime will finally receive its third season, showcasing the grand finale of the manga. Five years have passed since the release of the second season, which is why fans are eagerly anticipating the continuation.

I would actually be one of those people. Soul Eater caught my attention back then. Both mangas come from the same mangaka, which is noticeable among other things in the cheeky character design.

Soul Eater was one of the first animes and remains one of my favorite series to this day, because it conveys a dark atmosphere without jump scares. Fire Force also features an incredibly exciting world with a big mystery that I actually wanted to uncover.

However, my enjoyment of this anime was taken away from me in the second season. One character was so intrusive and annoying that I stopped watching the series in the middle of the plot. Therefore, I probably won’t watch the third season.

You can watch the trailer for the third season here:

Already in the third episode, Tamaki Kotatsu joins the story. Like protagonist Shinra Kusakabe, she is part of the Special Fire Force and helps to uncover the mystery behind the spontaneous combustion of humans.

In fact, the character has an exciting ability. She can create flames like Shinra, which manifest as pink fire for her, giving her cat-like traits. But Tamaki has a curse that makes her an annoying character.

She has the ability to magically attract bad luck. This often puts her in situations that are extremely uncomfortable not only for her but also for the viewer. And I don’t even mean the everyday situations where Tamaki is beset by bad luck. She loses her clothes or stumbles and ends up with her breasts in the faces of others. 

There are other scenes where the disruptive moments pulled me out of the story:

  • When Tamaki is overwhelmed by Orochi and lying on the ground, I felt the seriousness of the situation. But the threat disappeared for me when Tamaki’s clothing was burned away by Orochi’s flame whip.
  • In training with Hikage and Hinata, Tamaki rises to the occasion and is praised by Chief Shinmon. A touching violin music plays, interrupted by Tamaki’s missing clothing and her bare bottom.
  • The fight between Rekka and Shinra was one of my favorite battles. It showed what a psychopath Rekka really is and what kind of threat he poses. Yet even here, serious battle scenes are interrupted because Shinra uses Tamaki’s breasts as an airbag.

There’s even a name for her bad luck: Tamaki suffers from the “Lucky Lecher Lure” syndrome, which is why her clothes keep falling off. This bad luck is explained by the fact that the girl cannot control her powers. Her body unconsciously reacts to the heat of her own powers, causing her to lose control of her clothing.

Such characters or moments are nothing new in the anime world. There are entire animes that rely on such effects. These include harem animes like Trinity Seven or High School DxD. A prominent example of an anime with many fan-service moments, which you might remember from earlier, is the RTL2 anime Ranma 1/2. 

What is fan service? Fan service refers to elements in animes or video games that are included simply to please the viewer. This includes exaggerated violence or depictions of oversized or naked body parts.

But in Fire Force, it feels out of place to me. I was actually interested in the anime because it has a dark story and I was curious about the mystery behind why people spontaneously combust. The fan-service moments constantly pulled me out of the action. Moreover, according to the lore, Tamaki is only 17 years old, which makes it even harder for me to accept. 

Currently, there are only two options for how I deal with Fire Force:

  • I can rewatch the anime and fast forward when Tamaki gets “plagued by bad luck” again. However, fast-forwarding also pulls me out of battles, and I have to time precisely when to stop fast-forwarding. Therefore, it’s more likely that I…
  • will leave the anime aside and unfortunately not watch the third season either.

Another alternative would be to read the manga. But even there, Tamaki is supposed to be just as annoying, which would pull me out of the action again. I doubt I will ever finish watching or reading the story.

Is there an anime or manga for you that you couldn’t enjoy to the end because one character annoyed you? Tell me in the comments which character you would most like to delete from a story! Interestingly, One Piece author Eiichiro Oda is annoyed by his own character: Why Ruffy annoyed the “One Piece” creator more than all his characters

The company behind Baldur’s Gate 3 confronts a fan mod that even the CEO of Larian approves of

A mod combines Stardew Valley with Baldur’s Gate 3 and even enchanted the CEO of Larian. However, Wizards of the Coast seemed to see their intellectual property at risk and had the mod taken offline. Now they are rowing back.

What kind of mod is it? “Baldur’s Village” is a mod for Stardew Valley that brings characters, places, and events from Baldur’s Gate 3 into the popular farming sim. Larian CEO Swen Vincke gushed at the release of the mod in early March on X: “So much love has gone into this – great job!”

But not everyone was pleased with the work: Wizards of the Coast, the rights holders of Dungeons and Dragons – and thus also Baldur’s Gate 3 – had Baldur’s Village blocked on Nexus Mods via a DMCA takedown.

WotC meanwhile has its own plans for the future of the franchise:

WotC says: It was just a mistake

This is the current state: On the night of April 1, 2025, Wizards of the Coast issued a statement and apologized for the incident: “The DMCA takedown against Baldur’s Village was mistakenly carried out. We are currently working to correct this so that fans and the Stardew community can continue to enjoy this great mod.” (Via PC Gamer)

Meanwhile, Baldur’s Village is even available for download again on Nexus Mods.

Previously, Vincke again spoke out on X in favor of the mod. Such high-quality fan creations are proof that the work resonates and are a unique form of word-of-mouth marketing. The CEO of Larian admits that it can be challenging to protect an IP, but there are better ways to handle such issues (via X).

What does the community say? They are glad that Baldur’s Village is back, but they are not fully convinced by WotC’s accidental copyright strike. A user quips on Reddit: “Seems like the legal department didn’t talk to the PR department before hitting the process button.”

There is also a discussion in the Baldur’s Gate 3 subreddit that is laced with sarcasm:

  • ImNotASWFanboy: “My goodness, mistakenly issued? That is terribly unfortunate. I hope WotC tightens its processes and controls in this area, so that such cases can be avoided and/or detected earlier.”
  • Chicken_Ingots: “Yes, it would really be a shame if D&D fans accidentally boycotted their system in favor of other TTRPGs.”

The relationship between fans and Wizards of the Coast is anyway tense. The love that the community shows Baldur’s Gate 3 apparently does not extend to the rights holder. They have made a fortune with Baldur’s Gate 3, cutting the team behind Anthem 2.0’s new AAA game
