Destiny 2 has announced upcoming content for Episode: Heresy with its recently released livestream, and one of them is a collaboration with Star Wars. What you can expect and how the community feels about it can be seen here.
What collaboration can Destiny 2 players expect? Bungie has orchestrated a new collaboration with the brand “Star Wars.” The Force is not only present in the Guardians but also in the Jedi and Sith. With the release of Episode: Heresy, fans will have the opportunity to purchase skins, emotes, finishers, and other cosmetic content for real money through the Eververse.
The skins are Stormtroopers from the universe of lightsabers. Depending on which ornament set you choose, you will receive the following armors:
Hunter – Deathtrooper
Warlock – Alternate variant of the Royal Guard
Titan – Stormtrooper
Collaborations are often not well received by the community, as fans believe Bungie is saving resources for more important aspects of the game, like modes. However, in this case, the Guardians can hardly wait.

A collaboration that fits Destiny 2
What are fans saying about the crossover? They find the choice of collaboration perfect on Reddit and the implementation successful. Many can hardly wait to dress their Guardians in the iconic trooper outfits of the vast galaxy. The following comments can be heard:
“I have gotten into the habit of never spending money on video games anymore, but I already feel my money leaving my wallet for this.” – porridge_in_my_bum
“Literally the same. I’m buying this whole collab set, idfc” – Vivid_Plantain_6050
“Also, the Death Star shell looks sick” – bootlegportalfluid
“Hunters getting Death Trooper? Just take my money now, Bungo” – CMDRLtCanadianJesus
What collaborations has Destiny 2 had before? Before Star Wars, the loot shooter had crossovers with:
Has there been criticism of collaborations? Destiny 2 is a rather serious game in its own game world. While collaborations help keep players returning and fund the loot shooter, such actions are often under criticism.
In the collaborations, a distinction is made between those that integrate well into the universe and those that feel out of place. Star Wars, in this case, provides an exception with The Witcher and Mass Effect, as such elements are already present through the Iron Banner and the futuristic look.
Ghostbusters or Street Fighter, on the other hand, disrupt the immersive feel as they appear out of place and do not integrate well due to their design. However, the sentiment around Star Wars looks good so far, and fans can look forward to many futuristic ornaments. What do you think of the ornaments? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Freddy Krueger is getting love in Dead by Daylight. A lot of it. He is now one of the best killers with exciting abilities.
There are killers in Dead by Daylight who feel neglected by the developers. For years, they have been at the bottom of the tier list and are hardly played at all. One of these killers is “The Nightmare,” better known as Freddy Krueger from “A Nightmare on Elm Street.”
In the latest patch 8.5.0, the developers have taken the time to fundamentally revise this killer. Freddy is back now – stronger and more versatile than ever before. We will tell you what has changed.
The current newest killer is the Dog Master:
Start video
Dead by Daylight: The Dog Master is not for Animal Lovers
What has changed? Freddy’s revisions are quite extensive. In brief, the following changes occur:
Freddy can now permanently switch between dream traps and dream pallets. He is no longer limited to one or the other.
Dream traps are now projectiles.
Dream pallets can now be manually detonated by Freddy.
Dream projection (the teleport) can now be used on all generators – whether they have been repaired or not – and also on survivors who are sleeping and are currently healing or being healed.
What do the changes mean in detail? Freddy now plays much more dynamically and interactively. With the dream pallets, he can now do more than just start mind games. The pallets can be manually detonated – they explode in a fountain of blood. Affected survivors are injured if they are already sleeping, while awake survivors are pushed much closer to sleep.
As a trade-off, Freddy can now also be stunned by dream pallets, but that is manageable – his abilities are now more versatile.
Especially the ability to teleport to healing survivors who are asleep offers entirely new options. Survivors are almost always forced to wake up before they can spend time healing. Otherwise, Freddy might appear nearby and ensure that the healing effort is entirely in vain.
A somewhat closer look at the playstyle can be found with YouTuber Otzdarva, who has already extensively tested the new Freddy:

Cortyn says: For me, Freddy Krueger was a killer that I completely avoided after the first few days. He just wasn’t fun enough, and his abilities were from a time when significantly less was possible, and survivors generally had worse perks. The game simply evolved over the years – only Freddy was left behind.
Now Freddy is back in a solid position and is fun to play. His abilities are interesting, allow for more exciting “mind games,” and provide a lot more entertainment. Whether he is now overpowered, I won’t claim just yet. After a rework, it usually takes a few days for survivors to learn how to handle the killer properly.
But right now, Freddy feels fresh and interesting and could become one of my favorite killers again with his abilities. That’s a good thing for now – the fine-tuning of the balance, whether up or down, can still follow afterwards. We will have to see if we can liberate Freddy from his status as an “F” killer on the next update of the tier list …

In the Armory, you can save and easily switch your builds in Diablo 4. You can find out how the new feature works and where to find it here on MeinMMO.
What is the Armory? Diablo 3 already had the feature with the Armory, and fans have been requesting it for Diablo 4 pretty much since release. The feature allows for a quick switch between different builds, which is especially useful in the endgame when you use different builds for bosses and the pit.
With Season 7, the long-awaited feature was finally added to the ARPG. Below, we explain how the Armory works and where you can find it.
Update, January 23, 2025: The article has been updated with new information.
Start video
Blizzard summarizes the story of Diablo 4 in the video
Finding and Using the Armory
This is how the Armory works: Essentially, the Armory is a storage function for the builds you want to play with a character. It allows you to save, name, and switch between builds – without the tedious and costly respec.
The loadout slots are character-bound. Each character has 5 slots for loadouts.
In the overview, you can see the gear, skills, Paragon nodes, and glyphs of the saved build. The class mechanic will also be saved, which you only need to do once. To do this, log in briefly with a character with which you have unlocked the mechanic at some point.
Switching builds with different Paragon nodes and boards costs no gold.
If a saved item is missing – for example, because you sold or disassembled it – this will be marked in the preview.
You can access the Armory in any major city, as well as in the Citadel and at the “Whispering Tree”.
Where do I find the Armory? You can find the Armory in all major settlements like Kyovashad, Cerrigar, Gea Kul, and Zarbinzet. You can see if there is an Armory at a waypoint by the special symbol when you hover over the waypoint. This way, you can also identify the Armory on the minimap. In Kyovashad, the feature is located between your loot chest and the weapon merchant.
In the Armory, you can save and switch builds.You recognize the Armory by its symbol on the map.
With the Armory, you have the ability to easily switch between your builds. This is particularly useful when you use different builds for farming and the pit in the endgame.

In Path of Exile 2, a player has created a bow that can do something no other bow can.
What kind of bow is this? On Reddit, the user “ThePlotTwisterr—-” shared their bow with the community. The “Foe Rain Expert Dualstring Bow”, roughly translated as “Enemy Rain Expert Dual String Bow”, has a feature that likely no other weapon in Path of Exile 2 possesses. It can fire 5 arrows at once.
With this ability, it is likely alone in the game, and even Robin Hood might find himself facing competition.
Here you can see how the bosses in Path of Exile 2 are created:
Start video
Path of Exile 2: The new trailer reveals how the bosses of the action RPG come into being
Endless Arrows
Why is this something special? In Path of Exile 2, it is particularly difficult to enchant equipment with desired modifiers. Much depends on the player’s luck, as values are rolled randomly. The bow reminds players in the comments on Reddit of “Robin Hood: Men in Tights”, where many arrows are also fired simultaneously with a bow.
A Robin Hood bow is an example of how well a random roll can work if you’re lucky. The bow has two modifiers that allow it to fire an additional arrow each and a modifier that allows it to fire two more projectiles.
Together with the standard shot, this results in five arrows per attack. But that’s not all: Through the Ascendancy, specifically the subclass “Sniper,” one can fire one more arrow per shot. Additionally, with the support gem “Scattershot,” two more projectiles can be released with every attack.
How does one get such a bow? The player crafted the bow by corrupting it with a Vaal Orb. With this, anything can happen to the item, for example, modifiers can be added or removed. Crafting with Vaal Orbs is risky, and there is a high chance of obtaining unwanted values. Once used, the item cannot be enchanted again.
An indie MMORPG on Steam has lost its lead developer. The community is affected by this and expresses its condolences to her husband and co-worker.
Which developer is it about? Sandra Powers was the lead developer on the MMORPG Project: Gorgon. Together with her husband Eric Heimburg, she had been working on the indie project for years.
Before that, she was involved in other MMORPGs, such as Asheron’s Call and EverQuest II, before she began working on Project: Gorgon with her husband.
The game was released in Early Access in 2018 and is, with 84% positive reviews, one of the highest-rated MMORPGs on Steam. Players are particularly excited about the old-school feel, the sandbox classes, and last but not least, the community itself.
The community is now mourning Sandra Powers, who, according to her husband Eric Heimburg, passed away last weekend. On Discord, he addressed a message to the game’s fans.

What does the developer write? In his statement, Heimburg explains that Sandra Powers has passed away. She had recently been in great pain, and her death was therefore a release.
He himself is grieving and asks the community to forgive delays in the ongoing development of Project: Gorgon.
It’s hard for me to work. I’m going to push the update back a week because I just don’t think I can get enough done this week. I apologize for the delay.
What does the community say? After the news of Sandra Powers’ death, parts of the community immediately gathered on Discord to express their condolences.
“That’s so sad to hear! I feel for you. Please take the time you need!”, writes Helio/Hantherece.
“I’m sorry to hear that; life is wonderful, I’m sure she had bright moments too, but unfortunately we all must find an end,” regrets Hextor.
“I’m sorry to hear that. Take as much time as you need to grieve and celebrate her life. We all love the game that you both built together. Please don’t apologize for any delays, no matter how small,” writes maca.
With this, he speaks for many other users on Discord. They express their condolences but also say that the developer does not need to apologize for the upcoming update being delayed.
He should take all the time he needs to process the loss of his wife.
It is heartwarming to see how much the community sticks together to show compassion and understanding. Sandra Powers will be remembered by the players even after her death as the creative mind behind Project: Gorgon. She has helped guide and develop the MMORPG. Her work will live on.

The movie “Groundhog Day” has made the tradition of Groundhog Day known worldwide. However, the animal rights organization PETA has now approached the organizers with a request that Punxsutawney Phil be replaced – with a cake.
What does the groundhog predict? Through the film Groundhog Day featuring Bill Murray in the lead role, the tradition of Groundhog Day has become known worldwide. On February 2nd of each year, a groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil, is asked about how the rest of the winter will unfold.
The animal emerges from its burrow, and the organizers watch whether the groundhog sees its shadow. If it does, winter will continue for six more weeks. If there is no sun and the sky is cloudy, it means that the weather will improve and become generally warmer.
Especially in Pennsylvania, USA, this custom has a long tradition. However, the animal rights organization PETA has now intervened and made an unusual offer to the organizers.
Start video
And daily the groundhog greets in the trailer for ‘Groundhog Day’
Trade groundhog for cake
What does PETA propose? The organization, which often has something to say about gaming issues, has made a request to the official Punxsutawney Groundhog Club. Under its leadership, groundhog Punxsutawney Phil predicts the weather every year.
PETA requests that the use of animals for this purpose be discontinued. This is justified as follows:
If they are allowed to be themselves, groundhogs avoid people, build complex underground burrow systems, communicate with each other, and even climb trees, but all of this is denied to poor Phil because of an old, tired gimmick.
The old groundhog deserves to finally retire, it continues. However, to not completely erase the day from the calendar, PETA has an absurd idea.
The organization proposes to trade the groundhog for a cake. PETA itself would send a vegan cake to the organizers every day. With its help, the weather would still be predicted. Blue filling inside the cake would mean that winter will continue for six more weeks. Pink would mean it would end soon and spring would begin.
The proposal is reminiscent of gender-reveal parties where the gender of an unborn child is revealed. Whether the Groundhog Club will agree to this remains unclear.

On Monday, January 27th, there was a showdown at League of Legends in the LEC. The leading team, GiantX, faced the reigning champion G2 Esports. Even before the match in LoL, there was trouble on Twitter and in the arena.
This is the situation in the LEC: G2 has been the best team in Europe for years. Even though they are not performing as strongly internationally as they did in 2019, when they almost became world champions, they have now won the championship title in Europe 6 times in a row. Since April 2023, the champion of the LEC has repeatedly been G2 Esports.
But 2025 has not been going well for the team so far: G2 restructured their roster after the last season and a disappointing world championship: 2 new players joined the team and there are teething problems. They have already lost 3 games and are stuck in the middle of the standings.
The new strong team at the beginning of the season was GiantX, a newly formed team with the former bot lane of Fnatic. They were now on top.

Welcome to Noxus – Opening Video for the First LoL Season 2025
Challenger’s Coach Takes a Dig at G2
So the arrows flew before the match: The coach of GiantX, 30-year-old Portuguese André Guilhoto Pereira Guilhoto, wrote before the match on X:
Today we are playing against G2 and there is good news. They can’t dodge in drafts like they do in scrims.
There was a clear accusation that G2 was not playing fair in training matches, misbehaving.
To “dodge in a draft” means that a team aborts a match after the champion selection and before gameplay starts: This way, one can see what champions the opponent might choose, but does not reveal their own plans.
Accusations of dodging a draft always imply that it is unsportsmanlike and that one may be afraid.
G2 Faces a Lot of Mockery Before the Match
This was the atmosphere before the match: The comment sparked a discussion on reddit. The mood was clearly against G2 and on the side of GiantX:
G2 has managed to squander their aura as the strongest team in just 2 weeks
The team now seems beatable; no one is afraid of G2 anymore
The team is just not performing – the newcomers are not working. G2 should have never restructured the team – that was a big mistake
G2 Fails to Reach the Worlds
This was the sharpest attack: The coach even said in an interview that G2 would not make it to the Worlds, thus would not even belong to the top 3 teams in Europe. Other teams would surpass them. That was his opinion.
From G2’s perspective, this was already a case of lèse-majesté.
The statement did not sit well with Dylan Falco, the coach of G2. He mockingly responded that the Portuguese had already experienced failing with super teams. He himself does not know that:

What is Dylan Falco referring to? Guilhoto was the head coach at Team Liquid in the USA from 2021 to 2022, where they had a super team with players like Bjergsen, Hans sama, Santorin, and Bwipo – but did not achieve the desired success.
Broken Blade
G2 Overwhelms Brazen Challenger
This is how the match went: G2 overwhelmed GiantX with a score of 16-4 in just 27 minutes. Especially the new jungler, SkewMod, delivered an outstanding performance on Zyra with 5-0-7. The German player Broken Blade also performed flawlessly with a score of 3-0-2.
In the comments on reddit, G2 fans are now on top and mocking back:
“Such a Zyra, who stands 3-0-2 after 8 minutes – did you perhaps do a remake in the scrims?”
“But I heard that the jungler is so weak”
How the Coach Reacts: The coach of GiantX, who had previously been so boastful, must now chuckle at how his own words have backfired. He posts a picture on Twitter that shows him very strong while tweeting, and then very small with a hat while drafting. Unfortunately, the German team SK Gaming is not doing well in the LEC: German player fights his way back into the pro league of LoL for 2 years, meets the final boss

The MMORPG World of Warcraft is currently a huge topic on Twitch due to the guild “OnlyFangs”: Streamers are playing on a hardcore server. But according to Esfand, who expresses his concerns in a conversation with Shroud, things may not be as they should be.
What makes OnlyFangs special: The guild OnlyFangs plays WoW on a hardcore server, but to make the whole experience even tougher and more entertaining for viewers, the guild has imposed some rules on themselves (via reddit):
Players are not allowed to use the auction house and cannot receive items via mail.
They cannot trade with players outside the guild and cannot raid with anyone who is not part of OnlyFangs.
They are not even allowed to use the bank or play any secondary characters until they reach level 60.
Here’s why these rules exist: The rules are intended to prevent large streamers from simply receiving gold and items from fans or being carried through raids, which would compromise fairness. Such acceptance of gifts in WoW is known to be done by Asmongold.
How is this monitored? The rule that you can only use items you or someone in the guild found is monitored via an add-on.

Blizzard bans the man who ruined WoW Hardcore
“The number of people cheating is incredibly high”
This is the accusation: The streamer Esfand now says that this very item rule is being disregarded by some guild members. In a conversation, one streamer states that although he is in OnlyFangs, he has bought items from the auction house and accepted gold from strangers. However, he says “Shh”, nobody should know.
But Esfand tells Shroud in their conversation that guild members, when they are not streaming, seemingly engage in this behavior too and simply turn off the monitoring add-on:
The number of people who turn off the add-on, and then accept [items from strangers], is incredibly high. But they talk to no one about it; it’s absolutely crazy.
Esfand says there is even a second Discord server just for people who consciously cheat. He is a spy there and will reveal who is violating the rules.

Even those who are not playing are mocking OnlyFangs
This is noteworthy: Esfand himself has already died 9 times in OnlyFangs and seems fed up with the project. That’s why some are mocking on reddit that he is so bitter because he is no longer participating. When the others raid, Esfand would be standing with his shaman in the Barrens at level 10.
In the anime and manga sector, there are the so-called Big 3. This refers to the three most popular works that dominated the Shonen Jump magazine in the mid-2000s. Besides Naruto and One Piece, Bleach often gets left out. MyMMO editor Nikolas Hernes believes this is unfair, as he considers Bleach better than One Piece or Naruto.
One Piece and Naruto are among the major anime that often represent the medium. During their run, they were considered the Big 3 of Shonen Jump, the Japanese magazine where the chapters were published, alongside Bleach.
Unfortunately, Bleach never managed to achieve the same grand status as the other two. While I watched Naruto and One Piece daily on RTL 2 as a child, I only caught up with Bleach years later.
However, contrary to my expectations, I fell in love with it right away. I even bought the art book immediately and engaged more with the work. And to be honest, although I love One Piece and Naruto, Bleach is my big favorite of the three, and there are mainly four reasons for that, both in the anime and the manga.
Start video
Bleach: The Trailer for Thousand-Year Blood War
1. The Drawings and the Art Style
Every manga has its own style. Bleach has made an interesting development in this regard. While the first chapters are not very impressive, Bleach evolved into a manga that radiates one main thing: Coolness.
Tite Kubo, the mangaka of Bleach, has weaknesses, especially regarding backgrounds, but his staging is truly strong. He focuses on the characters, almost all of whom have great, and above all, unique designs that characterize the characters even if they don’t say a word.
He mixes traditional styles with the modern youth clothing of that time. This is especially noticeable on cover pages that show the characters in different situations. The clothing is not only beautiful; it is part of the world-building. The design of characters regularly changes, showcasing character development without needing to be laboriously narrated.
Kubo seems to never forget the focus on the characters. In fights or dramatic situations, it’s always about representing the character’s personality in each panel as well as possible.
Naruto and One Piece also did this well, but in my opinion, only in their beginnings. After the time skips, I always felt like I was seeing the same thing in both series. While Naruto still had really great ideas with the Akatsuki, I completely missed that in One Piece after the time skip.
In Bleach, the main characteristic of the fights is the technique called Bankai. It not only provides a simple power-up but also changes the dynamics of the battles. A Mayuri with his poisonous giant baby fights differently than a Urahara.
This rarely leads to good choreographies, but, as mentioned in point 1, it’s another characterization of the characters and indeed a personification of their values and designs.
However, this often leads to characters suddenly pulling counters out of nowhere. In that case, I can personally ignore it because the Bankai are just damn impressive.
Like a small child, I awaited each battle eagerly for the next Bankai and the accompanying change in dynamics.
I would say that Bleach has the best soundtrack of the three anime. While One Piece has a few cool pieces, I must admit it tires me to constantly hear the same thing.
Naruto is much more varied, but nothing can compare to Bleach for me. Shiro Sagisu, the composer of Bleach, manages to create a new soundtrack for each arc and for each group that is unique.
For the Arrancar, he used music reminiscent of Spanish styles, and for the Star Knights, he used choirs that characterize the entire organization as a totalitarian regime.
Bleach has countless music pieces that I will never forget and that remind me of the best moments, but also pieces that represent Ichigo’s emotional world without seeming generic. My favorites are mainly:
Nothing Can Be Explained
Soundscape to Ardor
La distancia para un duelo
Number One
Stand up be Strong
Shiro Sagisu is also one of the best composers of all time outside of Bleach. He also composed for Neon Genesis Evangelion and for the movie Shin Godzilla.
4. Ichigo as Protagonist
Unlike Naruto or Luffy, Ichigo does not have a grand goal; he does not want to become Hokage or the Pirate King. However, I find that really good. Ichigo’s greatest motivation is his friends and family. While this is a big cliché, let’s be honest, wanting to become Pirate King is also not a very inventive motivation.
Ichigo never wants to become stronger because he inherently wants to, but because he has to. He really just wants peace; he wants to hang out with his friends, and that fits the setting of Bleach. A motivation like in other anime with a fantasy setting would be out of place here.
Throughout the series, you can see that Ichigo becomes more mature and calmer.
A special point for Ichigo, in my opinion, is also his relationship with Rukia. The two are simply best friends, and you can feel that in every moment, but it hasn’t just happened from one moment to the next; it grew in the first arcs. At the same time, he has a different dynamic with each character, making everything feel more organic and less uniform.
I can relate to Ichigo much better than the other protagonists. I can understand his sadness, his frustration, but also his fun moments, and that contributes significantly to what Bleach means to me.
However, Bleach also has aspects that can be criticized. The original series has many fillers, which can be skipped easily. That is also a problem with Naruto.
In its narrative structure, Bleach has a certain uniformity. A new bad guy appears, the group fights with the henchmen, and Ichigo finishes the game. This is also an aspect that can be criticized in One Piece, especially after the time skip.
Another major point is the choreographies in the fights. Instead of elaborate hand-to-hand combat, there are many effects and abilities that are used. In my opinion, One Piece has reached this point as well. Really great fights are found mainly in Naruto.
However, the most important point for Bleach is: It’s exactly my thing. In the end, it’s also again a matter of personal taste, and none of the three series fits me as well as Bleach does.
I love One Piece, and I also love Naruto, but Bleach holds a special place in my heart. I can leaf through the art book for hours, listen to the soundtrack, or watch the openings. Only a few anime can achieve that for me.
But what is your favorite? Can you understand my points? Feel free to let us know in the comments. Before the Big 3, Dragon Ball was the big thing, and this anime could also shine with its battles: The 7 legendary battles in Dragon Ball Z

Which is the best SSD for the PS5 and which meet Sony’s system requirements? MeinMMO presents you the best SSDs you can currently buy.
How much storage does the PS5 have? The standard PS5 officially offers you 825 GB of storage. For games and apps, about 667 GB remain available for your use.
Why should you install an SSD? Many large games like Call of Duty: Warzone or new next-gen games require a lot of space on your hard drive. For this reason, you have the option to install an additional SSD in your PS5.
MeinMMO explains what you need to consider when installing an SSD in the PS5 and also presents you with recommended models.
The best M.2 SSDs for the Playstation 5 at a glance:
The article first appeared in December 2021. With the latest update, we have added two M.2 SSDs to the purchase advice: with the PNY XLR8 as a budget option and the Corsair MP600 Pro LPX as a top alternative to the fastest model on our list. We have also replaced the Crucial P5 Plus with the equivalent and newer Crucial T500.
Last updates: 29.01.2025, 29. 08.2024, 15.01.2024, 21.04.2023.
The best M.2 SSDs for the PS5 2025 at a glance
Here we present to you the currently best and compatible M.2 SSDs for your PS5. Sony itself recommends installing an SSD with a cooling module. If you already have a cooling module at home, you can of course install that as well. In our article, you can also find the SSD that the chief architect of the PS5 likes best.
The following links all lead you to the Amazon page for the corresponding product. Exceptions, such as Mindfactory, have been marked.

Seagate FireCuda 530
The model from Seagate offers you excellent performance at a fair price. Since the SSD from Seagate is very popular among gamers due to its strong price-performance ratio, availability is limited.
The MP600 Pro LPX from Corsair is among the fastest consumer SSDs you can currently buy, alongside the Seagate FireCuda 530.
Be careful when purchasing: The LPX version fits into your PS5 due to its low height, while the XT version does not and is only suitable for gaming PCs.
The SN850X is the successor to the popular SN850. The X model offers significantly better temperatures and better performance for the PS5. For this reason, we have replaced the predecessor with the successor:
The 900 series belongs to the best-known SSDs and NVMe SSDs from Samsung. You get high performance. The models are regularly on sale. For even more performance and power, you can opt for the Samsung 990 Pro.
With the NVMe SSD from ADATA, you get a price-performance tip. The performance is high and a heatsink is also included. You can now get the fast model for under 80 Euros.
The NMVe SSD from Sabrent offers you high performance and very good cooling performance. Due to the massive heatsink, you need to be careful when installing it in your console. Another disadvantage is the price, which is usually higher than the competition.
The T500 from Crucial is a price-performance tip if you do not want to spend much on a large and fast NVMe SSD. It replaces the very good predecessor (P5 Plus) in our opinion. For 1 TB, you usually pay under 100 Euros and sometimes as low as 70 Euros on sale.
With the Kingston Fury Renegade, you get an excellent M.2 SSD for your PS5. The colleagues from TechRadar explain in their review that it is one of the best SSDs you can buy for your PlayStation 5.
With the SK Hynix Platinum, you get one of the fastest M.2 SSDs on the market. The English-language site TomsHardware considers it one of the best SSDs you can buy right now. The only criticism is the high temperatures.
The only downside is that the SSD is shipped without a heat sink. However, manufacturer SK Hynix offers an official heatsink for about 10 Euros to retrofit the M.2 SSD. A heatsink is recommended because otherwise the SSD runs very hot without one.
The PNY XLR8 is a fast and, above all, inexpensive SSD that is equipped with a very good cooler. As a budget tip, it is recommended, but it is not the fastest SSD on the market.
Can I retrofit a heatsink? Yes, in most cases this is possible without any problems. If you have already purchased an SSD for your PS5 without a heatsink, you can buy a heatsink. A heatsink costs about 20 Euros:

Installing PS5 SSD-M.2 – What you need to consider
In which PS5 can you install an SSD? You can install an SSD in both the PS5 and the PS5 Digital Edition. Both devices provide you with a slot for additional storage.
Who can install an SSD? Since the update to the PS5 firmware 4, recognizable by version 21.02-04, you can install an M.2 SSD in your PS5. This update has been available to you since September 15, 2021, and is about 900 megabytes in size.
What requirements are there? Using an M.2 SSD with the PS5 requires effective heat dissipation with a cooling structure. Either you buy an M.2 SSD that already has a cooling module (so-called heatsink) installed, or you buy an appropriate cooling module. However, there are restrictions on the height.

The MOBA Heroes of Newerth (HoN), which was discontinued in 2022, is set to return in a remastered version and once again compete with the strong competition from League of Legends and DOTA 2.
What do I need to know about HoN? When Heroes of Newerth was released on May 12, 2010, League of Legends was already the dominant player among MOBAs that one had to measure up to. When DOTA 2 turned the two-way competition into a three-way battle in July 2013, the pressure increased.
Although the game from S2 Games had some unique features despite its gameplay similarities to DOTA – such as the deny mechanic, which allowed players to kill their own minions and towers so that the opponent wouldn’t receive gold or experience from them – the Buy2Play model, higher complexity, and the high quality of free-to-play competitors led to a decline in player numbers.
The end was only a matter of time: On June 20, 2022, the servers were shut down. Much too early, as the developers of Kongor Studios now explain. With the help of the publisher Garena, they have now announced a remastered version of HoN. Here is the trailer:

Heroes of Newerth: Reborn in the Announcement Trailer
Balancing Act Between Nostalgia and Modernity
What improvements are expected? With the new iGames engine, HoN is expected to look modern and sound better. The developers also plan to improve the combat experience and add features like role queues. At the same time, they want to preserve the strong core of the game to honor its legacy and the fans.
Unlike the original, Heroes of Newerth: Reborn will be based from the start on a free-to-play model with optional microtransactions. However, these are not supposed to affect the gameplay in any way. However, the funding does not seem to be guaranteed. Alongside the announcement, the developers have launched a crowdfunding round for HoN: Reborn on app.igames.com.
In preparation for the release of Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, numerous RPG fans are currently playing the first part. One player has mastered the toughest 4 achievement combination on Steam in his run.
What achievements are those? The player NeedleworkerDense736 has mastered Kingdom Come Deliverance on Steam with the following four achievements (via Reddit):
Merciful: Kill no one within the main quest storyline (except for a wight) – mastered so far by 0.7 percent of all Steam owners of Kingdom Come Deliverance.
Just a Scratch: Complete the game in hardcore mode with all negative specializations – 0.9 percent.
Virgin: Live in celibacy and complete the game as a virgin – 1.0 percent.
Hardcore Henry: Complete the game in hardcore mode – 1.2 percent.
The percentages show it: Only a few owners of the RPG have secured even one of these four achievements on Steam. Collecting all four milestones is even more remarkable. By the way, NeedleworkerDense736 has a total playtime of over 105 hours. Whether every minute went into this run is unclear.
The successor to Kingdom Come will be dark – here you can see the story trailer:
Start video
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 presents dark prospects for Heinrich in the new story trailer
Like a Virgin
What does hardcore mean? When you activate the hardcore difficulty level for Kingdom Come Deliverance at the beginning, numerous details of the game change. Here are the highlights:
Important quest progress no longer grants a save point.
The battles are deadlier, healing potions take effect more slowly.
Goods from traders and repairs are more expensive.
No more fast travel; Henry’s position is not displayed on the map. Points of Interest only appear on the map when you approach them.
No more displays for health (except in the inventory), stamina, enemy health, and horse stamina.
You must choose at least two from a list of negative perks.
EltonBongJovi jokes on Reddit: “This Henry knows nothing but hardness in the truest sense of the word.”
Organic_Interview_30 sees it realistically (via Reddit): “I’m currently trying to get the Virgin achievement, but I never manage to be merciful. I just love killing people too much.” Surely a “in the game” is missing there. Most definitely…
Alanah_V lives by Madonna’s philosophy (via Reddit): “I want to achieve the Virgin achievement in real life.”
Crispy1961 recalls on Reddit: “I did this run a few years ago and was pleasantly surprised and even impressed that it wasn’t boring. I only took 21 hours, and the game always offered an alternative to killing. I even enjoyed the sections with the troop battles. I used a mace and was very careful not to deal a lethal blow. This run is highly recommended […].”
What do I need to know about Kingdom Come? The first RPG from Warhorse Studios was released on February 13, 2018, and despite some technical issues, it became a surprise success. On Steam, the RPG holds an 83% positive review rate.
Like part 1, the sequel, which will be released on February 4, 2025, for PC and consoles, will focus on Henry, the son of a blacksmith. Both games offer open-world adventures from a first-person perspective, focusing heavily on the story, an authentic simulation of the game world, and the RPG experience.
Since Season 7 in Diablo 4, there are the witch powers that can enhance your builds. However, to obtain some of these powers, you need to find special altars – which can be frustrating for some players. However, there are also players who seem to have discovered a solution to this problem.
On January 21, 2025, Season 7 began and introduced the new powers of witchcraft, which are the central feature of the season. To learn witchcraft, you gather seasonal reputation by completing tasks for the Whispering Tree.
While you can acquire most powers directly at the circle by the tree, there are also “forgotten powers” that you unlock at special altars. However, these altars are well hidden and can be frustrating for some players.

Gameplay trailer for Season 7 in Diablo 4, the Season of Witch Power
What are these altars? To acquire the forgotten witch powers, you need forgotten altars. According to Blizzard, they spawn “in random dungeons in Sanctuary” and are said to be hard to find. By using the seasonal elixir “Potion of Whispers,” which you receive as rewards for your circle reputation, you double your chance of stumbling upon an altar. It can be used together with other elixirs and lasts for a whole hour.
Why are players despairing?On Reddit, players are joking whether the altars even exist or are a myth, as they have never seen them despite numerous dungeon runs. Various threads are discussing how and where to find them most easily.
The forgotten altars can spawn in dungeons. Source: Blizzard
The altars are said to spawn especially in one dungeon
This is what players suggest: One player shares a helpful tip on Reddit: Instead of Nightmare dungeons or the Pit, one should rather farm normal dungeons to find the forgotten altars. The dungeon “Decline of the Hoarfrost” in the Shattered Peaks, northeast of Kyovashad, is particularly recommended. According to the player, this works best at Torment level 4 and with an activated “Potion of Whispers” to increase the chance.
In another Reddit post, “Decline of the Hoarfrost” is also recommended as the best option for farming the forgotten altars. The user reports that they found two altars there within 20 minutes. They emphasize that the layout of the dungeon is perfect for speed runs since it is basically a large circle. The altars appeared particularly frequently in the second area of the dungeon. Their tip: To save time, you can simply ignore the tasks and the boss, reset the dungeon, and start again immediately.
Other users in the threads advise that your chances increase if you team up and everyone activates a “Potion of Whispers.” In addition, a dungeon can be explored much faster as a group, ensuring you don’t miss anything.
In GTA V and GTA Online we encountered various characters in recent years. Some of them are parodies of real personalities, others are entirely fictional. However, in 2017, Rockstar Games introduced a very… special… character into the game.
In December 2017, GTA Online introduced the Doomsday Heist, which is a heist where we players must prevent the end of the world. Our good acquaintance Lester Crest introduced us to Avon Hertz, whom we first meet in a former underground government base.
Avon is presented to us as a tech billionaire who founded his first company at just 22 years old. He is also the developer of the supercomputer Clifford. We are to work together with both from now on.
In a video sequence, Avon explains to us that a danger threatens the United States. Throughout the story, we encounter a former Russian agent named Bogdan, who reveals to us: He is not trying to destroy American democracy but to stop Avon and Clifford. Their goal is to provoke a nuclear war.
Start video
GTA Online – Trailer for the new update Agent of Sabotage
An egocentric billionaire with evil plans
Avon turns out to be the antagonist of the story and pursues a malicious goal: He wants to create a society that meets his ideals. The simple, working citizen must be kept away from the rich and successful. The perfect world is run by private companies. And to create this world, the current society must be eradicated through a nuclear catastrophe.
Avon presents himself as unemotional and very egocentric. He sees himself at the center of world events and feels hurt because the American government did not want to work with him. Moreover, he is very self-absorbed and does not tire of talking about his high intellect.
However, he is also very insecure, stutters when he reaches the limits of his arguments, and uses his success and intellect as an excuse when someone confronts him with logical counterarguments.
The insecurity of the tech billionaire also shows in other areas. For instance, it seemed important to him to tell us that his hair is indeed real while he discusses the alleged threat.
Moreover, Avon has a questionable relationship with the artificial intelligence Clifford, who is supposed to call him “Daddy.” He sees himself as the father of the supercomputer, yet never speaks of a human family or loved ones.
In the finale of the Doomsday Heist, Clifford turns against all humans and wants to destroy the entire world with nuclear missiles – Avon is also supposed to die. We ultimately stop Clifford, but in a final attempt, Avon risks his life to escape with the original code of Clifford and save the AI – even though it turned against him and all of humanity.
Let’s summarize again:
Avon is an egocentric tech billionaire who appears very insecure regarding his appearance and intellect.
He struggles to interact with other people and lacks any empathy.
Avon tried to prove his worth to the American government.
He apparently has no family who loves and supports him and sees only a failed society in which he probably has no place.
The only form of emotional closeness he experiences is through a computer.
Perhaps Rockstar Games was once again inspired by a famous person when they created Avon Hertz in 2017. I feel as though the story and personality of the insecure tech billionaire remind me of someone. If only I knew who…

Nvidia’s RTX 5090 is about to launch, but buyers are worried about burning cables. This issue has occurred frequently with the RTX 4000 series, where Nvidia claimed that improperly connected cables were mainly responsible. Now, Nvidia addresses this issue and talks about their solution.
What is the problem? With Nvidia’s RTX 50 series, the worry about an old problem resurfaces. With the introduction of the RTX 40 series, Nvidia adopted a new power connector, the 12VHPWR connector.
How does Nvidia respond? Nvidia confirmed in the Q&A session at the Editor’s Day 2025 in South Korea that the issue with melting cables should not occur with the RTX 50 series, even though this card has a power consumption that is 125 watts higher.
According to the English magazine Videocards, Nvidia commented on the cable issues of the last generation:
It is expected that such issues will not occur with the RTX 50 series. In response to the previous issue, some changes have been made to the connectors, and after about two years, we believe that these problems have been resolved.
What change is being made? A switch from the 12VHPWR connector to a 12V-2×6 connector is meant to address the problem. The power connections are longer in this case, while the sensor connections are shorter. This ensures that the connection is completely seated before it is powered. This is intended to prevent the connectors from being improperly seated, which could lead to burning. The community has already discussed the change to the GPU cable of the RTX 5090.
Nvidia regularly releases Collector’s Editions alongside the regular series, such as the NVIDIA TITAN Xp in Star Wars design.

How to avoid damaging your cables
Ensure proper connection: Make sure that the cable is fully and correctly plugged into the graphics card’s connector. An incomplete connection can lead to a poor connection and overheating.
Avoid bending excessively: Nvidia and other third-party manufacturers warn against bending power cables and connectors too much. Such bends can cause thermal hotspots that, in the worst case, can lead to melting or burning of the cables.
Route cables properly: Ensure that the cables are not under tension and have enough play to promote airflow and avoid overheating.
Use appropriate cables: Manufacturers point out that the original cables provided should be used. Whenever possible, use high-quality cables that are suitable for the corresponding power consumption. (For example, from Cablemod). The proper length of the cables also plays a role.
Visual aid with cable connectors: Use color-coded cable connectors that make it easier to see if the cable is correctly seated. These connectors have a noticeable color that can assist in installation.
However, there are many other reasons how damage or dangerous fire hazards can occur in your PC. A user on Reddit reported that his sister played so much Fortnite that her Nvidia graphics card caught fire.

The Community Day in February 2025 at Pokémon GO focuses on two Pokémon. They are Schnuthelm and Laukaps – what can they do?
When does the Community Day take place? The Community Day with Schnuthelm and Laukaps will take place on Sunday, February 9, 2025. It starts at 2:00 PM and ends at 5:00 PM.
Which Pokémon? The two Pokémon of the day are Schnuthelm and Laukaps. Both are special Pokémon: If you evolve Schnuthelm into Hydragil or Laukaps into Cavalanzas, you need to use 200 candies. However, you can bypass this if you trade the Pokémon with friends. Because traded Schnuthelm or Laukaps cost no candies to evolve.
The Community Day is perfect for catching both of them. But what can they do? We’ll take a look at that below. But first, let’s briefly summarize the bonuses of the Community Day.
Bonuses of the Community Day: This time there are the following bonuses that you can use during the event.
Increased shiny chance for Schnuthelm and Laukaps
The move Calc Blade for Cavalanzas, when you evolve it
The move Energy Ball for Hydragil after the evolution
Important: The special move is available for evolutions from the start of the event until February 16 at 10:00 AM. You have almost a week.
3x Catch XP
2x Catch Candies
50% Stardust cost for trading
One additional special trade
Lure modules and incense last for 3 hours during the event
Snapshot surprises
Double chance for XL candies if you are over level 31
Timed research running until February 16, 2025, at 10:00 PM.
The research will reward you with one of the Pokémon with a special background. Additionally, the shiny chance is increased here.
There will also be matching field researches, showcases, and a paid research available in the shop.

Pokémon GO reveals the new season Dual Destiny in the trailer
What can Laukaps and Cavalanzas do in Pokémon GO?
Laukaps is this strong: You can safely ignore Laukaps in battles – whether in raids or PvP matches.
Cavalanzas is this strong: Unfortunately, Cavalanzas is also not a particularly good attacker in the PvP of Pokémon GO, even though it is a knight bug with two spears. However, it does have the fast attack Counter, which can be useful as a bug Pokémon to surprise the opponent in the battle league. In raids, it is also negligible.
What do Shiny Laukaps and Shiny Cavalanzas look like? The shiny variants of both Pokémon are quite striking and definitely worth catching:
Shiny Laukaps and Cavalanzas
What can Schnuthelm and Hydragil do in Pokémon GO?
Schnuthelm is this strong: Unfortunately, it is not an option for the battle league; it is too weak. This also applies to raids. Better choose other options from the list of best attackers in Pokémon GO.
Hydragil is this strong: The cool ninja prefers to sneak out of the battle league or raids – because its stats are not good for either.
This is what Shiny Schnuthelm and Shiny Hydragil look like: Like Schnuthelm and Hydragil, they also have striking shiny variants:
If you are only looking for strong fighters, this day is probably not for you. But the shinies are both striking and thus interesting targets for collectors. Additionally, it is a good opportunity to get the evolutions of both monsters, even if you don’t want to trade with anyone. On top of that, as always, there are some bonuses that make the day more interesting. The XP bonus can help with leveling. If the day overall isn’t for you: There are still other events in February 2025 at Pokémon GO.

Some games that you can buy for the PS4 offer you a free upgrade to the PS5 version. Which PS4 games receive an upgrade to a PS5 version? MeinMMO presents all the games that you can currently upgrade for free.
What should you consider when upgrading from PS4 to PS5? In general, you do not necessarily have to upgrade to the better version if you do not want to download a large game.
With an upgrade, you usually still keep the PS4 version. This means you can still play the game on your PS4.
If you played the PS4 version before and are now switching to the PS5 version, you often have to start the games from the beginning, as save files are not always compatible with the PS5.
You can also upgrade PS4 games on disc to a digital PS5 version, but you will still need your PS4 disc. You cannot play these games on a PS5 Digital Edition.
Is the update to the PlayStation 5 version free? Sony leaves it to the developers to decide whether they offer the upgrade for their games for free or for a fee. Some developers only offer the upgrade to the PS5 in a more expensive edition.
Update: Our article was first published in August 2022. We updated our list on January 29, 2025, for 2025 and added several games. In total, 31 games have been added. Last updates: 29.01.25, 15.02.24, 29.08.24
Upgrade PS4 games to PS5 – List of all games that you can upgrade for free
What can you find in our list? In our list, we introduce all the games that offer a free upgrade from PS4 to PS5. We also explain whether you can continue to use save files from the PS4 on the PS5. For the save files, you will only find “Yes” or “No” if we have tested it or there is confirmation from the manufacturers.
New games that have come in with our article update are marked in bold.

What happens to additional content like soundtrack or artbook during the upgrade? All additional content remains yours and can be used even after an upgrade to the PS5 version.

Which achievements in World of Warcraft have only a few accomplished? We show you 5 of the hardest achievements that hardly anyone manages to obtain.
Achievements, or also known as achievements, are as abundant in World of Warcraft as sand on the beach. Especially on a new account, you will be rewarded with some achievement every few minutes that captures what you have just achieved in the game. However, some of these achievements are quite difficult to obtain. They either require a lot of skill, a great deal of time, or they come with other special challenges.
We have put together a mix of different categories here.

Note: In this article, we only cover achievements that you can still complete now. Locked achievements or feats from previous expansions that can no longer be obtained are not included in this list.
100 Revered Factions
How many accounts have the achievement? Nearly 9% of all accounts have unlocked this achievement.
What kind of achievement is this? The name of the achievement says it all. You must raise at least 100 reputation factions (or honor factions) to revered status. Where the factions come from in terms of expansions does not matter. You are rewarded with a nice mount.
The biggest obstacle for newcomers is likely the monotony. Because if you want to max out old reputation factions, you often have to spend many hours dealing with trivial tasks that can often only be completed once a day. The constant repetition of daily quests can be quite exhausting and may often feel like a waste of time – especially when you could be working on current content instead.
The vast majority only dedicate themselves to this achievement during content droughts between two expansions or major patches. Fortunately, Blizzard has implemented a few new methods over the years to catch up on old factions relatively quickly. For example, you can often buy reputation tokens cheaply from timewalking vendors that offer the equivalent of several quests – at a very low price.
This task becomes easier over time. During the Battle for Azeroth expansion, the achievement could only be completed with a lot of effort – now there are clearly over 100 factions to choose from. Still, it’s quite an impressive accomplishment that most players take months or even years to achieve.

In Helldivers 2, the never-ending battle against alien forces rages on. What will soon last a year for players has been weighing on the Chief for much longer.
Who is it about? Johan Pilestedt is the Creative Director of Helldivers 2 and the CCO (Chief Commercial Officer) of Arrowhead Game Studios. Until May 22, 2024, Pilestedt was the CEO of the studio, but he demoted himself after issues arose between the publisher Sony and the community.
Pilestedt is still regarded as the Chief by the community, particularly due to his good communication with players. However, it seems he has had enough now.
In the meantime, there is a new enemy faction in Helldivers 2:

How is the Chief doing? Johan Pilestedt seems to have had enough of the Helldivers brand. As he explains on X.com, he has been working on the Helldivers brand since 2013. Initially with the first part and since early 2016 on Helldivers 2.
In these 11 years, he has sacrificed many aspects of his private life, including family, friends, and even his wife, for whom he often had little time. He emphasizes that he now wants to take the time to make up for what he has lost. Therefore, the Helldivers Chief will take a sabbatical, which he dedicates to those who have supported him over the years.
What is a sabbatical? A sabbatical, or sabbatical year, is a work-time model in which the employee takes an extended break from work to focus on personal matters. What exactly the employee does during this year is entirely up to them.
What will change after his return? Johan Pilestedt wants to start working on a new game for Arrowhead Game Studios upon his return. This also means a new brand, as it seems Johan Pilestedt has had enough of the bug aliens after 11 years for the time being.
What’s next for Helldivers 2? The development of Helldivers 2 is unlikely to be affected by Johan Pilestedt’s leave. He himself believes that his colleagues at Arrowhead Game Studios will continue to produce good work and deliver updates without him.
