A player has become so fond of Triad Wars that they did not want to give up the MMORPG. Half a year of work later, and the game is running again.
What kind of game is this? Triad Wars was a kind of MMORPG experiment by United Front Games, the creators of Sleeping Dogs. For many players, it was like Sleeping Dogs Online, where players were to build their own criminal empire. The game strongly resembles the big sandbox hit GTA Online, as both games feature a massive world full of vehicles and crime.
Although the “Massive” (as in “Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game”) was not the focus of the game, there were some mechanics that strongly resembled an MMORPG. Players were able to distribute skill points in skill trees that then enhanced combat skills, firearms, and driving abilities. Instead of experience points, players collected “Face”, a kind of street reputation. With a higher reputation, better equipment was also available.
The game world was always online, even when players were not actively playing. Through clans and leaderboards, players could compete against each other. Players joined forces to take control of Hong Kong.
However, there were also raids in the game where players could enter other players’ bases and fight against NPC guards. Although they did not fight against the players themselves, they had to get through the defenses placed by the defender before.
Here you can see the game in action:

What’s the status of the game? Triad Wars only ran in 2015, as the game was definitively shut down on January 20, 2016. At that time, the title never left the status of an “Open Beta” and there was never a full release.
The reasons for the quick downfall were related to the community and the title itself. Players were more thirsty for a Sleeping Dogs 2 than a Free2Play online offshoot. At the same time, the game offered too little “Online”, as there were never real fights with other players. It lacked interactions.
At the same time, the title clearly deserved the name Open Beta. There was a lot of grind as the thrilling presentation of the single-player campaign was missing and players constantly repeated the same actions. Additionally, the game world seemed too empty and unspectacular. However, the title still has one dedicated fan.
Where does the rescue come from? The fan with the username “Keiters” on Reddit has not given up on the title even 10 years after its end. According to his own statements, he revived the game 10 years after its conclusion.
To do this, he rebuilt the entire server structure himself, without having the server files. On the project’s website, he reports on his process. His Frankenstein project is now in a playable alpha, where many of the elements work, although not everything is functional yet.
Especially the core, the multiplayer and the economy of the title, are still not functional. At the same time, Keiters seems to be working without the permission of the former developers. Although he does not take any money, publisher Square Enix could intervene at any time and stop the project.
The Old World from Warhammer Fantasy has perished in the “End Times,” and literally so. The greatest blame lies with a power-hungry vampire – and his wounded ego.
The End Times are a very controversial topic among fans. Most prefer to act as if they never happened. This is not only because the entire setting was left behind to market the new Age of Sigmar. Many are simply disturbed by how “out of character” some figures are perceived to behave.
One character comes off particularly poorly, as he betrayed everything and everyone – even when the survival of the world was at stake. His name: Mannfred von Carstein.

Total War: Warhammer – Mannfred von Carstein awakens the undead hordes of the vampire counts
The most cunning vampire of all
Mannfred is part of a powerful dynasty of vampires, the Von Carsteins. They ruled over Sylvania, a province in the east of the Empire. When Karl Franz was crowned its ruler, Sylvania had already belonged to the vampire counts for hundreds of years.
His exact origins are unclear. However, it is known that he was one of five vampires who conducted a bloody power struggle for the rule of Sylvania. In the end, only he and his insane blood brother Konrad remained. Mannfred then disappeared for a while and left the rule of the province to him.
Mannfred preferred to hone his necromantic skills. He traveled to Nehekhara, the land of the tomb kings – an entire civilization of the undead. There he researched in the tombs of ancient lich priests. At the end of his journey stood Nagashizzar, the fortress of the greatest necromancer of all time. At this place, his magic became exponentially more powerful.
After Konrad was destroyed during an unsuccessful campaign into the Empire, Mannfred seized the opportunity and returned to Sylvania to claim the throne. To make the Empire believe that the danger from the undead had passed, he kept a low profile for the first years – Mannfred was far more cunning than other vampires, and certainly more than his bloodthirsty brother Konrad.
From commander to the greatest traitor in the world
During the End Times, Mannfred assisted in the return of Nagash, but only reluctantly. The powerful lich was supposed to help stop the latest and largest invasion of Chaos, which threatened to destroy the world. Mannfred would rather serve than be destroyed (even though his loyalty was dubious). He should at least serve as one of Nagash’s powerful Mortarchs.
However, in later negotiations with the remaining enemies of Chaos, Nagash disposed of his unreliable servant by making him the scapegoat. The vampire was locked in a cage of roots that drained his power. Enraged, Mannfred backstabbed his former allies and betrayed them to Be’lakor, a powerful daemon prince, who promised him freedom in return.
However, Mannfred did not actually join the forces of Chaos, even though he pretended to. His plan was to pit them against each other and then pick up the pieces in the end. He did not yet know that the leader of the Chaos invasion, Archaon the Everchosen, was planning a great ritual for the complete destruction of the world.
This ritual could still have been prevented, as a powerful mage of the Empire named Balthasar Gelt was conducting a counter-ritual. It only failed when Mannfred literally stabbed the wizard in the back in a final act of betrayal. The doom of the world was sealed.
Undoubtedly, the highlights of the new month will be the two legendary Pokémon Zamazenta and Zacian, which you can encounter in raids. However, it is still unknown whether you can get the energy for the form change here. Additionally, another strong attacker, Regieleki, returns in March.
Moreover, you can find, challenge, and catch Regice as a Dynamax monster in Max raids in March.
The overview of all events and content will be shown in the respective lists. Monsters that can also appear as Shiny are marked with an *.
What about the Spotlight Hours? No Spotlight Hours have been announced for the new month so far. The information for the new season also completely lacks the Spotlight Hours. So currently, it is to be assumed that there will be none in the new month and in the upcoming season.
As soon as there are further information about the events in March 2026, we will update the list. However, before the new month begins, one of the big 3 annual events in Pokémon GO is coming up: the GO Tour 2026. This time it will take place in the Kalos region, which is why the event is also known as Kalos Tour 2026.

For the quest “Keep Your Eyes Open,” you need to find a graffiti in ARC Raiders and take a photo of it. We will show you where to find it.
What do you have to do for the quest? Celeste sends you on a quest to photograph a special graffiti as well as a hideout. The following is stated in the task:
Find the collapsed highway at the southern edge of the uninhabited clearing
Search Bilguun’s hideout and look for clues that he was there
Once you have completed all the tasks, you only need to report your progress to Celeste. However, many players have trouble locating the exact location. That’s why we’ll show you exactly where you need to go.

Here you will find the collapsed highway
To find the collapsed highway, you need to go to the map “The Blue Gate.” Your target is located in the southern part of the map in the border areas adjacent to the forests. On our attached map, we have marked the exact location for you:
Here you find the highway on the mapYou need to go into this openingThis is what the hideout looks like
Before you embark on your journey, you should equip a zip line. Of course, you can also visit the highway without a zip line, but you need to aim for a specific opening in the broken bridge to complete the quest. It’s much easier with the zip line. It can take you directly there; otherwise, you’ll have to make a risky jump at the edge.
If you’ve made it into the opening, you just need to photograph the graffiti with the eyes. Once that’s done, you can extract and submit the task to Celeste. Note that you don’t have to escape from the map alive. You can also die or quit the round to complete the task faster.
These were all the important locations for the quest “Keep Your Eyes Open” in ARC Raiders. In addition to this mission, there are also other quests that you can complete.

The trailer for the movie from Peaky Blinders has ignited the excitement of MeinMMO author Johanna, which is mainly due to the cast. At the same time, it also reminds her of her love-hate relationship with Thomas Shelby.
For a moment, I had concerns that Netflix might turn the movie into a cash grab. After all, Peaky Blinders is a very popular series. However, the cast shown speaks for itself and made all my doubts disappear. We obviously have Cillian Murphy himself, but also Rebecca Furgerson (Dune), Barry Keoghan (Saltburn), and Stephen Graham (Adolescence).
I’m looking forward to the character Thomas Shelby as well, but at the same time, I’m not. Because I still don’t know whether to love or hate him. That’s what makes him so interesting to me.
You can watch the trailer for the movie here:

Thomas Shelby returns in Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man
Thomas Shelby drives me crazy
We all know the epic montages on the internet of scenes featuring Thomas Shelby. How he walks through the streets of Birmingham smoking in slow motion or casually strolls away from an exploding building.
For people who haven’t watched Peaky Blinders, Thomas Shelby may just seem like a cool protagonist who is superior to everyone else. No question, the gangster boss has his epic moments when you think, “Yeah man, what a cool character. He’s such a badass.” But just as often, if not more so, I find myself thinking, “You’re such a jerk.”
Thomas Shelby manages to test the limits of my own moral values and make me debate with myself whether certain actions are justified or not. Watching the gangster boss is almost exhausting.
His intellect makes him superior, but also cold
In countless moments, it gives the impression that Thomas Shelby is done for one way or another. His opponent has beaten him, but then comes the resolution that Thomas Shelby was once again a step ahead.
He is smart, and no one has finally beaten his intellect yet. His intelligence is one of his greatest strengths, but it also leads to his worst moments.
This often leads to his apathy. He treats other characters like chess pieces. He doesn’t even stop at his own family. He doesn’t involve them in his plans and forces them to do what he wants.
This can lead to funny situations, such as when he gets his little brother to marry and informs everyone except him. On the other hand, it also leads to situations like at the end of season 3, where Thomas Shelby knowingly lets the police take his family away.
Of course, one could say that it is the best for the family overall, but it is still not very nice.
Especially his brother Arthur seems to often be a tool for Thomas Shelby (Source: YouTube).
His insatiable ambition
One thing you cannot accuse Thomas Shelby of: laziness. The man gets things done. Actually, his older brother Arthur Shelby should have been the head of the family in his place. However, he is mentally too unstable to take on a leadership role.
With his intelligence and ambition, Thomas Shelby is the perfect candidate for it. But his ambition is also an insatiable thirst.
It seems almost irrelevant what Thomas Shelby achieves; enormous wealth and influence: he seeks the next goal. For this goal, he risks everything again and employs his morally questionable tactics.
The passing on of trauma
Thomas Shelby was in World War I. He is a severely traumatized man, which is especially evident in the first season. The experiences of the war haunt him, and he can only quiet them with drugs.
Help like therapy was pretty much non-existent at that time, so Thomas Shelby couldn’t have learned to cope with it. Add to that the prevailing gender roles: as a man, showing emotions was probably considered impossible at that time, as it was seen directly as a weakness.
The trauma Thomas Shelby has suffered does not get resolved; he passes it on. He murders and employs ruthless violence generally. Whoever stands in his way gets annihilated.
On one hand, I feel pity for him; no one should have to suffer such mental damage. On the other hand, I find it repulsive that he is also part of the problem.
Thomas Shelby is not an easy character. He is especially not one-dimensional, which is mainly due to the performance of Cillian Murphy but also to the writers.
The gangster boss remains one of the best and most interesting characters in modern cinematic history for me, even if I love-hate him or perhaps because of it. For me, Peaky Blinders is an absolute must-watch. If you want to shorten the time until the Peaky Blinders movie and have already finished watching the main series, we can recommend these 5 similar series: 5 series like Peaky Blinders

Yuki Tabata is the creator of the manga Black Clover. He had great ambitions at the beginning, but due to an important life decision, he lost touch with One Piece and Naruto.
What ambitions did he have? Right after its release, the manga Black Clover climbed into the top 20 of the best-selling mangas in France. It also celebrated great success around the world. A French blog wanted to know from him in 2018 what kind of story readers could expect.
Yes, that would be great, and I will do everything to make it happen. I am already mentally preparing to not have a vacation for a long time!
Originally, the manga started in 2015 in Weekly Shōnen Jump and was published there on a weekly basis. This continued successfully for 8 years, and the manga was able to accumulate numerous chapters through the weekly release.
For comparison:
Black Clover currently has 389 chapters
Naruto has concluded with 700 chapters and has added some chapters with the successor Boruto
One Piece is currently the most prolific with 1174 chapters, although an ending is also slowly coming into sight
However, in 2023, a crucial decision by the mangaka shaped the future of the story.

Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King – Official Trailer for the Anime Movie
Black Clover is unlikely to reach the chapter count of Naruto and One Piece
What is the status today? In 2023, Tabata decided to publish the manga not weekly but quarterly. So, after 12 chapters, there is now only one chapter per quarter. Mathematically, it is no longer possible for the author to catch up with other genre representatives like Naruto.
Tabata justified this in an afterword of the manga by stating that he always wanted to spend time with his daughter (read on X.com). At that time, he called the author of My Hero Academia for advice. He was nearly in tears during the call.
Since then, the manga has taken 3 years to reach its final stages. The final battle against Lucius Zogratis is largely completed, and the so-called Super Climax is confirmed for April or May 2026, where the question will still be clarified as to who will become the next Wizard King: Asta or Yuno?
Has he achieved his goal? In fact, the manga has managed to run for over 11 years. However, it has not quite reached the length of Naruto and One Piece, as it has not published nearly as many chapters.
The mangaka has not spoken about Naruto and One Piece himself but has addressed the question comparing the two mangas.
MeinMMO editor and anime expert Jasmin says: It is likely that the manga will end this year. Tabata clearly prioritizes family and only contributes one-twelfth of what he initially contributed. It is also known that he is struggling with health issues – which is not uncommon in the industry. Everything indicates that the manga will conclude in 2026.
In Dune: Awakening, a player has lost almost everything. His base is still standing, but his resources and thus hundreds of hours of work have been stolen.
Who is it about? The player Anax90 describes his situation on Reddit. He is in his base, but it no longer belongs to him. Ownership has been taken from him, and the items have presumably been stolen. He has no access to everything he has worked for in hundreds of hours.
A new exploit is to blame for this, which has caused trouble in Dune: Awakening in recent days. Players were able to damage the bases of others even though they were building in the PvE area. This is actually not possible and only happened through the use of an exploit.
Here you can watch a trailer for Dune: Awakening:

Dune: Awakening shows Chapter 3 and the free content update in the trailer
Rollback only for a few servers
How did the developers react? The developers of Dune: Awakening recognized the situation and fixed the exploit. However, a rollback only occurred for the servers where many issues were reported.
Here, the developers announced on Discord that players affected by cheaters on other servers should contact customer support. They are to review the situation and restore the stolen resources. However, it is unclear whether the support will also assist in regaining the base.
How long Anax90 has to wait until he gets his hundreds of hours of work back remains open. But his fellow players also know that only customer support can help him.
How do fellow players react? The exploit caused significant anger in the community. On one hand, players who weren’t affected lost the progress of an entire day’s gaming, while on the other hand, players like Anax90 are still waiting for a remedy. The mood is tense.
LookAlderaanPlaces: “Contact customer support! They will help you! And if not, let us know which server you are on and we (players) will help you!”
imrsn: “Such a bad feeling, I’m so sorry. I can’t believe they didn’t reset every server. It’s like a nice little ‘screw you’ to cap off the drama. No way a support package with a few random materials will make up for the loss, it’s insulting at this point.”
Gazrpazrp: “Bro, I felt like I lost 12 hours of grind this weekend. I created a ticket, but I think I’m done with this game if I don’t get any compensation from support. I’m just damn depressed.”
Slyder768: “Contact support so the guy who did this gets banned.”
Blizzard is going to try again with mobile games. But Overwatch Rush is different – it actually looks really good, thinks MeinMMO demon Cortyn.
You know, I actually felt quite mischievous and almost a bit diabolical last night. When it turned out, that Blizzard announces the game “Overwatch Rush”, my infernal writer’s soul was already looking forward to it – that would be a perfect topic for Mecker Wednesday. After all: Blizzard and mobile games, that is a story that, especially with Diablo Immortal and the quickly shelved Warcraft Rumble, is definitely a major uproar.
Overwatch Rush: Gameplay trailer with the developers
Overwatch Rush looks like the first mobile game that I am genuinely interested in playing regularly and long-term. Overwatch in a 4vs4 variant, though from a “top-down” perspective sounds exciting and also looks surprisingly good in gameplay.
Yes, the developers’ dialogues are a bit “cringe”, as if a Blizzard executive told them beforehand: “And for the video, you all pretend to play your game for the very first time and that you are Overwatch fans who don’t insult their teammates’ mothers in chat every 3 minutes or spam ‘EZ EZ’ and Tank diff.”
I just can’t explain why Reinhardt is praised for his Awesome Shield already in the spawn room, and even receives a Nice! in reaction.
I look forward to learning more about Overwatch Rush. I want to know if all heroes from Overwatch also make it into Overwatch Rush. I want to see more of the gameplay and also get hands-on myself.
No mobile game has made me as curious as Overwatch Rush
Sure, I have also given other mobile games a chance. Hearthstone is basically a mobile game too, but I only really enjoy it on PC. Warcraft Rumble was really interesting in the first hours, but in the end, I only played it on PC and left it behind after the game sank into completely boring endless grind or one had to throw real money at problems until all accounts had reached their overdraft.
I know: For many (increasingly older) gamers, mobile games are not “real” games. Gaming is done with a keyboard or gamepad. I feel the same way. Long gaming sessions with immersive games – I want a big screen and a comfortable position to sink into for hours.
Whether characters like Anran will also be in Overwatch Rush remains to be seen.
Above all, it’s not like “Overwatch Rush” is going to lose anything from the original Overwatch. It’s a game developed by a completely different development team than Blizzard’s “Team 4” (according to Blizzard).
It’s a bit curious that Blizzard announces the new game “just like that” at an unusual time. So detached from the major Overwatch announcements from a few weeks ago and practically two days before the release of WoW: Midnight.
Cynics might say that Blizzard does this because they themselves don’t really believe in Overwatch Rush. But I think rather that they have learned from the last mobile announcements from Blizzard and wanted to avoid a disaster like “Diablo: Immortal”. If Overwatch Rush had been the “big new announcement” at BlizzCon in September, a new shitstorm would have been pre-programmed.
So, Blizzard announcing Overwatch Rush rather on the side might also just be a sign that they don’t want to upset their core player base (which has historically indeed a very short fuse).
The usual fear of Pay2Win
And yes, I’m also fully aware that the game basically stands or falls with one thing – the cash shop. Because Overwatch Rush will be free-to-play, and that raises the question of how the game intends to generate revenue. I find skins and cosmetic adjustments perfectly fine; they can be as cheekily overpriced as in all other mobile games.
But that there is already talk of “adjustments to hero abilities”, so basically perks that are supposed to bring advantages and disadvantages, makes me grind my teeth quietly. It remains to be seen how drastic these adjustments are, and the danger of “Pay2Win” is initially given. For a game with competitive ambitions, this could mean that it immediately catapults itself out. But Blizzard will likely know this. Therefore, it is probably more effective if we let Blizzard know directly that Pay2Win has no place.
But all in all, I am positively surprised. Overwatch Rush looks fun. It could be the first mobile game in the history of mobile gaming that I want to play extensively. Because the gameplay looks good. The right mix of the well-known Overwatch but at a slightly reduced speed to be more tactical and to play solidly on mobile as well. I’m excited. Are you too? Because at least currently, Blizzard is doing a lot right – also with Overwatch.

A developer gained access to thousands of vacuum cleaners, including camera and location data.Meanwhile, the security flaw has been closed, but it also shows how much data the manufacturers have access to.
A software developer actually just wanted to control his vacuum robot with a PS5 controller.
However, instead, Sammy Azdoufal not only gained access to thousands of robots worldwide but also to integrated cameras and microphones. The manufacturer has now closed the security gap. This is reported by the English magazine PCGamer.

Security flaw gives developer access to thousands of robots worldwide
What exactly happened? The developer had purchased a DJI Romo from the vacuum robot manufacturer of the same name. In the next step, he wanted to examine the traffic between his newly purchased vacuum cleaner and the manufacturer’s servers. For this purpose, he used the chatbot Claude.
However, the security token provided granted him access not only to his own device but also to thousands of vacuum robots worldwide. In this way, Azdoufal gained access to numerous data from the vacuum cleaners.
This included information about their cleaning routes, their battery status, and the obstacles they encountered. He could also access their integrated cameras and microphones. Moreover, he was able not only to reconstruct the floor plans of the apartments but also, thanks to the IP address, to determine the approximate location in each household.
There isn’t much time left until the release of WoW: Midnight, but before fans decide to make a purchase, they want to know what the reviews promise. Therefore, we summarize the impressions of the first testers for you.
When can you expect reviews? WoW: Midnight has two release dates, which are:
The start of Early Access on February 27, 2026
The launch for all players on March 3, 2026
Before that, fans could already test the long-awaited housing feature, but you will only be able to truly dive into Midnight and play the campaign during the Early Access. Depending on how long the campaign is, it will take about 1 to 2 days, depending on the testers’ speed. So expect the first reviews around February 28 or March 1.
If that is the case, we will update our article and summarize all reviews to give you a comprehensive picture of the sentiment.

WoW Midnight shows gameplay – All new features
WoW: Midnight – The second part of a trilogy
What is WoW: Midnight about? In the new expansion “Midnight,” everything revolves around Xal’atath and her attack on the Sunwell of the Blood Elves. Through the essence of the Void Lord Dimensius, she has gained new power to pursue her goals further.
If she were to get her hands on the Sunwell, the Void could gain a new source of power. This would make it much easier for Xal’atath to corrupt the World Soul of Azeroth.
In battle, you are not alone, as many well-known heroes like Turalyon, Alleria, and their son Arator are on hand to support you. It remains exciting how the battle will end, as after Midnight there will be one last expansion that will conclude this trilogy.
The legendary Faker also enjoys League of Legends in his private life. However, the Korean professional is not safe from his teammates. A Chinese professional was so bad in Faker’s stream that he reported him. He didn’t just pay with an in-game penalty.
Lee Faker Sang-hyeok is arguably the most legendary LoL player in the world. He doesn’t only play on the big stages; occasionally, he also goes into the solo queue and even streams it. In January 2026, however, he had a frustrating experience.
As Nicolai summarizes in his new YouTube video, Faker streamed LoL again on January 6, 2026. During this stream, he played a game as Azir mid-lane with a Rakan support on his team.
Right from the start, this Rakan behaved quite toxic. After his ADC dies and the enemy LeBlanc is executed by the turret, he immediately types 15 in the chat. With this, he wants to tell the team to surrender at 15 minutes.
The match did not go well for Faker. After 10 minutes, he died for the 4th time and wondered why Rakan wasn’t helping him. Whether he truly could have helped him is unclear due to the fog of war. Right after his death, he reports Rakan. As it turns out, Rakan is actually a pro: the Chinese player Feather.

LoL pros must also behave in private
How was Feather punished? Feather (real name Wang Tian-Ci-Fu) did not just have a bad game with Faker; he did not behave like a professional. He later refused to help Faker, walked past him, and relaxed on the top lane.
After 15 minutes, the team gave up. However, Feather did not just face in-game consequences, like a ban. He publicly apologized. On the Chinese platform Weibo, he posted according to Sheep Esports (via x.com):
What happened in the game was the result of my own failure to maintain the right attitude and mentality. It also had negative impacts on everyone involved and on the league/region, and I truly regret that. I have realized how serious this problem is and will change my approach to the game in the future. I accept this lesson and the criticism because wrong is wrong.
Feather’s apology for his behavior
But it didn’t stop with just an apology. According to Sheep Esports, he was to receive a fine, and a month’s salary was to be withheld from him. This also matches a post from his team ThunderTalk-Gaming on the Weibo platform (via Reddit).
In the post, the organization also speaks of a behavioral violation. In addition to the fine, he was reportedly warned.
LoL pros must therefore not only show certain behavior on the big stage; it is also important that they do not troll in the solo queue and ruin the experience for other players. In the past, there have been other players who have been punished for their behavior.

After the developers of Diablo 2 revived their ARPG with the new Warlock class, the competition also feels the pressure of the genre.
Who is it about? Darkhaven is an ARPG like Diablo or Path of Exile, but it is heavily crossed with sandbox and survival elements like in Valheim or Enshrouded. While fighting hordes of monsters and demons, you also have to actively dodge enemy attacks.
There are many rare items, runes, and relics in loot, which can massively influence the players’ builds. In the survival area, tunnels can be dug, resources harvested, and even entire cities built. The ARPG can also be played in single-player or with friends on Steam.
The developers behind the game are no strangers. They have already worked on Diablo 2 many years ago and know ARPGs very well. However, while their Kickstarter campaign for funding is running, they also have concerns.
Here you can watch the trailer for Darkhaven:

Pressure from the competition
How do the developers feel? In an interview with PCGamer, the developers of the new project also spoke about the pressure of the genre. With Path of Exile 1 and 2, Diablo 4, and Diablo 2, as well as Last Epoch, there are many competitors with loyal fans.
The developers clearly feel the pressure of the genre. Peter Hu, one of the original developers, explains: “There are tons of mixed feelings […] In a way, we are an indie company competing against a giant, and that is a hard path.”
Despite the competition, there is no bad blood between the developers. Lead Character Artist Phil Shenk emphasizes: “We feel the pressure, but I don’t hate them [Blizzard] for it.”
In fact, it is quite the opposite. He is incredibly proud that a game created almost 30 years ago is still so popular today. It is not common for a game to receive an update along with a new class after all this time.
How do the developers want to succeed? The developers of Darkhaven want to carve out their own niche with the game. Their title is not intended to stand in direct competition, but to realize a unique concept through the combination of ARPG and survival sandbox.
So far, this plan seems to be working. As of February 25, 2026, the ARPG stands at about €185,000 on Kickstarter and has nearly reached its goal. There are still more than three weeks left to support the game.

If you want to play the old Pokémon titles again, you often face a dilemma: Digital ROMs are generally not legal, the originals on eBay are quite expensive, or your old GameBoy has seen better days.
For this reason, I bought the Analogue Pocket a few years ago: The device looks like a GameBoy and can display the old games thanks to a special (FPGA) chip. In my opinion, the Analogue Pocket is the best option if you want to play classics in a fairly modern environment. At least if you own the originals.
Is the device even legal? Yes, the Analogue Pocket is completely legal. It is a hardware emulator based on FPGA technology and does not contain any copyrighted software (such as BIOS or game ROMs) from game manufacturers. The technology was developed by Analogue itself.
The device is designed to play original game cartridges (Game Boy, GBC, GBA), which is legally unproblematic. It is a hardware replication device (FPGA) and does not use BIOS files from other companies.
The Analogue Pocket looks like a Game Boy and feels (almost) like one
The strengths: At first glance, the Analogue Pocket strongly resembles the GameBoy Pocket and that is intentional. The Analogue model has just a few more buttons in appearance. However, in detail, you get several improvements compared to the retro model, which I think are really worth it:
The Analogue Pocket offers a significantly better resolution: With 1600×1440, you get 10 times the resolution of the Game Boy, and the colors are much better and more vibrant than the original. That alone was already a reason for me to buy.
Additionally, the Analogue comes with several comfort features: Through the library, you can track your playtime and you can put your cartridges into sleep mode, which saves battery. This is valuable because it prevents the battery of the official cartridges from draining.
Also in my opinion genius: You can save, load, or pause your game on your Analogue at any time. My wife and I can play in parallel without constantly having to delete each other’s game saves.
A screenshot function is also available.
As a bonus, you can connect your Analogue Pocket to an original GameBoy via cable at any time and, in this way, trade Pokémon or play multiplayer.
The weaknesses: My first point of criticism mainly concerns the battery life: It is simply shorter compared to the original: After 5 to 10 hours, it’s over. In the original, you can use batteries, while the Analogue has a built-in battery.
The second point of criticism is the price and delivery situation, as it is not so easy to get an Analogue Pocket:
For our blue model, I paid $249.99, plus another $60 in shipping and also import fees. In the end, you easily pay 300 to 350 euros. Sometimes even more if you want additional accessories.
In addition, there are long delivery and waiting times. The device is only available for a limited time, and you must be quick if you want a model. I subscribed to the newsletter to know the ordering time frame.
For a used Game Boy Advance, you pay between 60 and 120 euros, for a GameBoy Pocket similarly (50 to 80 euros). For the Analogue Pocket, you pay significantly more in comparison:
A third point worth noting: The software of the Analogue Pocket itself is completely in English. German games will also be played in German, but the operating system and many additional features are in English. I did not find an option to change the language.
Great device, but unfortunately also very expensive
Is it worth it? Despite the high price, there is hardly a better option for me when you want to play all the old games again and already have the originals at home. The fantastic display and the significantly better resolution are worth it in my opinion. Also, the additional comfort features, such as the integrated storage system, are significant plus points.
If you do not own any old original games, then the Analogue Pocket is not worth it at all. Because the old originals are a must and for the old game cartridges you could easily pay 100 euros or more today. And ROMs from many websites are illegal and are not supported by the Analogue Pocket. However, if you still have plenty of old games from the old handheld generations of Nintendo and Sega lying around, it may be worth a look.
Additionally, on February 27, 2026, the re-release of Fire Red/Leaf Green for the Switch will come out, making at least these classics playable on modern devices again, completely without retro flair and without the Analogue Pocket.
In general, I consider the Analogue Pocket to be one of the best gaming handhelds you can currently buy. It may be a specialist, but in its specific niche, the device is truly unbeatable in my opinion: The 12 best gaming handhelds of 2025 that you should know about

Many animes rely on a major plot twist that undermines the entire appeal of the series. MeinMMO lists some series that you can only watch once.
There are some animes that you really can only watch once. Once you know the secret behind the series, the plot loses its magic or the threat that it posed.

What is it about? The student Koichi Sakakibara transfers to a new middle school. But he immediately notices that something is wrong with the class. Everyone seems frightened and is under extreme tension. The boy befriends a mysterious classmate with an eye patch. However, all students and even the teachers completely ignore her, as if she were air.
Over time, he realizes that a curse hangs over the school. 26 years ago, a popular student in the class died. His classmates could not accept the loss and acted as if he were still alive. They even left a seat free for him. Since then, a curse has been placed on class 3-3. Every month, a student or a close relative dies in bizarre ways. The aim is to stop this curse.

Another: Class 3-3 is haunted by a deadly curse in the anime
Why can it only be watched once? The curse is triggered by the fact that every year a dead person mixes among the living. The person often does not even know that they are dead and appears completely normal to everyone else. As long as this excess person is in the class, all others die.
The anime is a large puzzle game and has 2 main questions: Does the girl with the eye patch really exist? Who is the dead one? Once these two puzzles are solved, the anime loses its horror and its impact. The second time, you only pay attention to the clues and the fear of the unknown is completely gone.

The final episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is live and concludes an excellent series so far. However, MeinMMO author Sophia Weiß is quite annoyed with the fans who are criticizing House of the Dragon despite the success of the series.
I absolutely enjoyed A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and did my best to avoid spoilers on social media. However, what I’ve been seeing for the past few weeks truly rattled me:
One wrote, Game of Thrones is gone to allow House of the Dragon to stumble and A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms to run (via X.com). It is said that there is no one good to cheer for in House of the Dragon (via X.com). Alternatively, memes are posted that portray the series as stupid (via Threads). Another user also declared a few weeks ago that Dunc’s adventures are better because there are no dragons in them.
Yes, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is an excellent series. But that doesn’t make House of the Dragon bad: The two series are two entirely different types of stories, and it really annoys me when one is belittled because the other is better.

House of the Dragon Generates Anticipation for Dragon Battles in the Teaser for Season 3
The Hero’s Journey vs. the Greek Tragedy
House of the Dragon and A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms differ not only in the length of their episodes and the budget but also fundamentally in what exactly these stories are about:
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms consists of six episodes, each about 30 minutes long. Overall, it’s about three full hours of medieval fun, maybe a little more. Essentially, the series is a delightful entertaining bite for the evening that one could binge-watch as well.
Dunc’s adventures are also a classic hero’s journey: The underdog Ser Duncan the Tall and his faithful squire Egg want to participate in a tournament. However, the powerful Targaryen princes accuse Dunc of a wrongdoing and demand a trial of Seven.
On top of that, Dunc has his heart in the right place. He is always kind and polite to his fellow humans. He rushes to the aid of the poor and the weak. That’s precisely why he finds himself in trouble in the first place.
Moreover, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is based on a novella that has been partially adapted 1:1 for the series.
In contrast, House of the Dragon is based on the historical writings of a fictional maester who records everything after the events surrounding Rhaenyra and Aegon have already happened. So there are no adaptable dialogues, only the rough framework as in a regular history book.
The battle for the iron throne during Rhaenyra’s time tells of the violent loss of power of an almost godlike monarchy: At the beginning, the Targaryens reign unchallenged because they possess the Westeros equivalent of atomic bombs with their dragons. After Aegon’s conquest, no powerful lord stands in their way.
In House of the Dragon, it’s about the decline of this powerful dynasty, which could have been prevented with good communication. Because without spoiling too much: When the Dance of the Dragons is over, there will be no more dragons in Westeros until Daenerys brings her three.
The monarchy is thus on shaky ground – which is why Targaryen princes must even travel to a small tournament in Ashford. They are marketing their government there. Or at least they are supposed to. Then Aerion happens.
Basically, the Targaryens in House of the Dragon tear each other apart in approximately hour-long episodes because they cannot resolve the inheritance issue properly. All of them make mistakes, commit missteps, and have to clean up the mess of others. Here, there are no heroes. There are no villains. There are only people with too much power and ambition. Everything is just a bit more complex.
So, those who compare A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and House of the Dragon position a hero’s journey against a Greek tragedy. I’m not saying that House of the Dragon is better than A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. I am saying that you can’t reasonably compare apples and oranges.
I will be watching each and . Also, I fundamentally think dragons are great and worth supporting.
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, on the other hand, once again broke my heart in episode five – it is a Game of Thrones prequel series, so it was to be expected. But the six episodes still gave me the same warm, cozy feeling that James Gunn’s Superman did last summer:
Dunc and Egg are two lovable protagonists who provide a welcome contrast to the harsh Westeros backdrop with their charming personalities. Rhaenyra against Aegon and simply knowing that there will only be losers here, of course, is a much harder pill to swallow by comparison.
The Ashford tourney comes at just the right time for me: When I look at world news, my mood gets worse and worse as I read. A hopeful story with sympathetic heroes and a great cast is exactly what I need to lift my spirits. I really need these positive stories right now, and I’m probably not alone in that.
For House of the Dragon, I’ll sit down with popcorn and am already looking forward to the discussions with my friends. Currently, we are arguing about how much of Otto Hightower’s plan is motivated by the Maesters of the Citadel and their aversion to magic. Or whether he is simply a power-hungry scumbag second son.
All in all, both A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and House of the Dragon are great series. I think one just fits better with what people need right now than the other. And what is needed are empathetic heroes and stories in which the good sometimes triumph. But that shouldn’t devalue the complex stories with demanding characters.
Dunc is indeed the Superman of Westeros: Warm, heartfelt, empathetic.

Book to Series – Adapting is Not Easy
House of the Dragon has it much harder due to the lack of a dedicated book template compared to A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. A historical account of events does not aim to tell an exciting and balanced story. Additionally, historical writing is always shaped by the victors of a conflict.
To ensure that a coherent, exciting series emerges nonetheless, the episode writers must deviate from the template. Due to the lack of historically proven conversations, no dialogues from the book can be brought to the screen. Blaming the creators of the series for not being close enough to the source material is thus not entirely fair.
George R. R. Martin himself also makes waves with his opinion about the series creators: With the showrunner of House of the Dragon, Ryan Condal, the Westeros author has reportedly clashed heavily – due to changes between the book and series (via Hollywood Reporter). Condal simply would not listen to Martin anymore. This is entirely different with A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.
Ryan Condal himself said Entertainment Weekly in 2025 that he tried to involve Martin in the production of season 2 to the best of his knowledge and belief. They failed because Martin reportedly would not recognize some practical hurdles.
It might not be entirely foolish to refrain from adopting certain elements from Fire & Blood for television. I can’t imagine anyone really wanting to see how the non-existent second son of Aegon and Haelena is torn apart by an angry mob.
Let us perhaps just enjoy both series for what they are: one as a sophisticated drama with complex characters, the other as a comforting hero story with lovable main characters.

Fans of Godzilla have a lot to look forward to in the next 2 years. In addition to a new Japanese movie, Godzilla and Kong are also returning from the MonsterVerse. In this case, one opponent is quite likely and the two Kaijū will need as much help as possible.
According to The Times-Independent, the working title of Godzilla x Kong: Supernova is Zeus. Looking at the entry for Zeus at the Writers Guild of America, the union for writers, it states: Based on the characters “Godzilla” and “Space Godzilla”, which are the property of Toho Co., Ltd. and have been created by them.
Even though this is not an official confirmation, it is a strong indication that they will address the monster or at least its story. But who is SpaceGodzilla actually?
Start video
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire – Trailer for the Monster Brawl
Godzilla, but from Space
What kind of Kaijū is SpaceGodzilla? The monster made its first appearance in the Japanese film Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla from 1994. Visually, it looks like Godzilla, except it has crystals on its shoulders and back. It has a flight form that, according to Wikizilla, weighs about 720,000 tons. In its combat form, it is significantly lighter at 80,000 tons.
Over time, there have been various backstories. In its first film, humans proposed the theory that Godzilla cells landed in a black hole, somehow merged with crystal organisms, and the energy of an exploding star then created the monster. So, quite absurd nonsense, especially since it is unclear how the cells even got there. In the movie, they either assume it was Biollante, another Godzilla clone, or Mothra.
In the very absurd series Godzilla Island, SpaceGodzilla is an ally of the Xilians, an alien race, but we’ll ignore that for this article.
Unlike monsters that destroy because they act territorial or are disturbed, SpaceGodzilla is significantly more intelligent and evil. He wants to conquer Earth, and for that, he must kill Godzilla.
A powerful opponent that Godzilla is outmatched against alone
How strong is SpaceGodzilla? Thanks to his crystals, SpaceGodzilla can absorb cosmic energy and fire it as a laser. At the same time, he can also create crystals and use them as projectiles or as a shield. Additionally, he has telekinetic abilities that allow him even to lift Godzilla.
In battle, Godzilla clearly had no chance against his space brother. His atomic breath was blocked, and Godzilla could not reach hand-to-hand combat, one of SpaceGodzilla’s weaknesses. However, before Godzilla could be killed, humanity sent the robot M.O.G.U.E.R.A., which first appeared in 1957.
Back then, he was still an enemy but was used as an ally of the Defense Force of Earth against SpaceGodzilla and was actually intended as a weapon against Godzilla.
The robot managed to destroy the crystal on SpaceGodzilla’s shoulder. After that, he was so weakened that Godzilla could ultimately destroy him.
How could SpaceGodzilla be implemented in the MonsterVerse? Since the MonsterVerse has no problem with absurd explanations, SpaceGodzilla could simply come from space, after all, something like hollow Earth has already been established.
As the film features Godzilla and Kong, Kong could take on the role of M.O.G.U.E.R.A. This means he could support Godzilla, but he would probably have no chance in the fight either. Already in the film New Empire, he left the powerful Kaijū Shimo to Godzilla.

Still unsure what is important for the launch of Midnight? We have 3 things you should know before the new addon of World of Warcraft.
In just a few hours it will be time, as the new expansion of World of Warcraft: Midnight starts on the night from Thursday to Friday. The launch of an expansion is always a wonderful thing – at least when you are well prepared and do not have to figure out many things at the last moment. To ensure you are perfectly prepared, we answer the most important questions here so that you, as a newcomer, returnee, or veteran, can start perfectly in Midnight.
Start video
WoW Cinematic shows the journey of the Paladin Arator – Son of two worlds shows
1. Midnight is the second part of a trilogy – There is important backstory
Currently, World of Warcraft is telling the “Worldsoul Saga.” This is a coherent story that consists of three expansions. Midnight is the second part of this trilogy and follows directly after the events of The War Within.
Do you have to have played The War Within to follow the story? Or can you jump into Midnight without having done The War Within?
First of all, there is good news: As long as your character has reached level 80 and you own the expansion, you can start right away. There is no mandatory quest chain or further prerequisites.
However, it might be worth experiencing The War Within campaign in a quick run. This has been possible since some patches and starts in Valdrakken, the capital of Dragonflight. There, you can reduce the campaign to just a few hours and get informed about the most important story points of The War Within.
With the invasion of the Sunwell, the new expansion begins.
2. You don’t need to stress – Enjoy the addon’s story
At the start of an expansion, some are already restless. Many want to “rush through” as quickly as possible to be ready for the endgame and jump right in. During this process, quest texts are often skimmed over and barely any time is “wasted” looking at the game world in detail. You just hurry from task to task to reach the maximum level as soon as possible and dive directly into dungeons and raids.
However, that is not possible – neither in early access nor right after the launch. The first season of Midnight starts only on March 18, 2026, which is a full 2 weeks after the official release.
This buffer is intentionally built in by Blizzard so that everyone can enjoy the story and quests at their own pace without having to rush.
So take your time, enjoy the quests at your own speed, and closely examine the game world and all the little details that Blizzard has hidden there. There is plenty of time before the competitive pressure kicks in again.
For various expansions of World of Warcraft, the question always arises: Where does it actually begin? Who has the first quest and how do you get started with the new expansion?
The answer is pretty simple: You will automatically be assigned a quest if you meet the requirements. If you own the Epic Edition of Midnight, a quest will be added to your quest log at 00:00 on February 27 and the early access begins. If you own a different version, this will happen at the official launch on March 3, also at 00:00.
If the quest is not automatically accepted, try the following steps:
Travel to Dornogal. If you are already in Dornogal, leave the city for a moment and then return.
Make sure your quest log is not overloaded and that you can’t accept any more quests.
Make sure you really have Midnight on the account you are currently playing on.
This guide shows you the 20 best attackers against Mega Blastoise in Pokémon GO. Here on MeinMMO, we have listed the best counters and their movesets so you can win the Mega Raid as quickly as possible.
What kind of Pokémon is this? Mega Blastoise is the temporary Mega Evolution of the Water Pokémon Blastoise, which comes from the first generation of games. Also, Mega Blastoise belongs to the Water type, but is slightly stronger than its previous form.
In order to develop a Mega Blastoise, you must first gather special Mega Energy. You can achieve this among other ways by winning the corresponding Mega Raid. Pokémon GO has also finally improved Mega Evolutions and made evolving cheaper for you.
When can you encounter Mega Blastoise? The mega version of the monster will be available on Saturday, February 28, 2026 from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM. It is part of this year’s GO Tour 2026.
Defeat Mega Blastoise with these counters in the raid
Shadow Raikou with Thunder Shock and Wild Charge
Kartana with Razor Leaf and Leaf Blade
Mega Manectric with Thunder Fang and Wild Charge
Shadow Magnezone with Volt Switch and Wild Charge
Xurkitree with Thunder Shock and Discharge
Mega Rayquaza with Dragon Tail and Dragon Ascent
Thundurus (Therian) with Volt Switch and Wildbolt Storm
Mega Sceptile with Fury Cutter and Frenzy Plant
Zekrom with Charge Beam and Fusion Bolt
Shadow Zapdos with Thunder Shock and Thunderbolt
Shadow Tangrowth with Vine Whip and Power Whip
Mega Venusaur with Vine Whip and Frenzy Plant
Eternatus with Poison Jab and Dynamax Cannon
Regieleki with Thunder Shock and Thunder Cage
Zarude with Vine Whip and Power Whip
Shadow Venusaur with Vine Whip and Frenzy Plant
Shadow Electivire with Thunder Shock and Wild Charge
Shadow Mewtwo with Psycho Cut and Thunderbolt
Shadow Sceptile with Fury Cutter and Frenzy Plant
Electivire with Thunder Shock and Wild Charge
Weaknesses of Mega Blastoise: The Mega Evolution is a Water-type Pokémon, which means it is weak against attacks from Grass and Electric types. You should definitely use this in battle and deploy appropriate monsters.
Is there a Shiny Blastoise? Yes, with a little luck you can catch a Shiny Blastoise after the raid. You can recognize it by its purple body.
Blastoise normal (left) and as Shiny (right)
How many trainers are needed? To defeat Mega Blastoise, two trainers are usually sufficient for experienced players. However, note that you should rely on the top attackers and ideally have a trainer level over 40. We therefore recommend bringing a few friends along. This will make the raid a bit more relaxed.
