With the second DLC “Lord of Hatred”, a feature is introduced in Diablo 4 where you can relax from demon hunting and farm items at ease. A new video now provides insights for the first time.
What is this feature? It is about fishing, which finds its way to Sanctuary with Lord of Hatred. Blizzard itself describes the feature in the blog post as follows: “And when you feel like taking a break, you can relax from demon hunting while fishing in the waters of Sanctuary.”
The fishing functions as a mini-game that you start simply through the emote wheel. Your hero then casts the line, and you apparently need to press a button at the right moment to reel in the catch.
The video from IGN shows the character pulling various items out of the water – even a “Unique Fish” seems to be included. You can even fish in glowing lava:

The transition from bloody monster-slaying to peaceful fishing seems almost surreal, but it creates an interesting contrast to the rest of the gameplay and additionally provides you with fresh loot.
What exactly you will do with the fish later is still open. In Diablo Immortal, this system has existed since 2023. There, you exchange your catch for rewards through a logbook.
What else does the video show? The 21-minute gameplay video takes you into the new region Skovos. A Warlock is seen fighting through new hordes of monsters and capturing two strongholds. At minute 3:35, the video also provides a look at the map of Skovos including all waypoints and strongholds.
In addition, you get a detailed impression of the new class: the Warlock. This dark mage subdues demons to his will and, as the only class, uses two resources simultaneously – Wrath and Domination. In the video, you can see this with the split resource ball in pink and purple.
The developers of Enshrouded have introduced the first part of their major new update. It’s about the new combat system of the survival game.
What kind of update is this? Enshrouded is progressing rapidly towards its full version. It is scheduled for release in autumn 2026 and needs some updates that will change fundamental aspects.
For Update 8, Forging the Path, the developers have addressed the combat system, which will change significantly by release.
Here you can watch a trailer for Enshrouded:

New Combat System and Better Enemies
What has changed? In their video about the update of the combat system, the developers introduced several different points. Firstly, there is a new attack, the heavy attack. This deals more damage to enemies and also costs them stamina.
Also new are the weapon skills. These special maneuvers belong to each weapon type and can be triggered when the hit bar is fully loaded. So, those who deal a lot of damage can perform even more powerful attacks.
With two-handed weapons, the developers are separating the greatswords from the axes and hammers. The latter will now focus on diagonal attacks, while the greatswords will be swung from the side. Also new is the I-frame, which is the invincibility phase during the dodge roll. It allows for better evasion and mobility in fights.
How about the enemies? Not only players are supposed to benefit from the new combat system, but also the enemies. The developers have worked on the aggro system to make the target selection of the enemies more logical.
This is also supposed to lay the groundwork for an improved stealth system, which will be further expanded in the future. Enemies will now also try to dodge projectiles and will stick less to bushes. Overall, the enemies in the game will also be buffed.
What else have the developers announced? The developers of Enshrouded have announced further improvements for their game in Update 8. For instance, you will no longer fall off edges when moving through attacks, and enemies will teleport less to players when attacking.
For a later update, a focus on magic has also been announced, with crowd control and area damage as new spells for the mage being developed. However, this will not be part of Update 8 but will be on the agenda for the full release or afterwards.
Many MMORPGs stagnate at some point. The same old content keeps coming back again and again every year as if it’s “new.” But there are exceptions, namely MMORPGs that continually evolve and reinvent themselves without losing their old charm.
The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) is one such game. Those who started the big Elder Scrolls MMO 12 years ago will still recognize it well today. However, an incredible amount has changed and improved, so you are now offered an even better gaming experience.
If you’ve enjoyed playing ESO every now and then, then returning now is like reuniting with an old, good friend. Only this friend is now significantly more interesting and exciting than before!
The new era of ESO: More freedom, more loot, zero paywalls!
If you log in again now, you will enter a Tamriel that is more accessible, dynamic, and rewarding than ever before. Here are the features that will make your comeback to ESO a strong experience without frustration and stress.
Seasons instead of chapters: New content is now available for free!
From now on, you don’t have to spend a cent for new gameplay content! Whether the developers release brand new areas, tricky dungeons, epic storylines, or even entirely new classes and skill lines in the future: if you own the base game, you will get all of it completely free.
The community will no longer be artificially divided by paywalls. You can immediately embark on the latest adventures with your friends and guildmates without having to painstakingly check that everyone’s purchased all the additional content!
Premium DLCs moving into the base game
If you took a break after the release and didn’t jump back in because you were missing so many paid contents, your patience will now be richly rewarded!
Because three of the best and most popular premium DLCs are now permanently and freely integrated into the base game! Experience the still highly praised story of Orsinium, ease the bags of unsuspecting merchants as a member of the Thieves Guild, or become the silent assassin of the Dark Brotherhood in a particularly dark storyline. That’s hundreds of hours of award-winning premium content just waiting to be played through by you.
No more rigid routine: Welcome to the new seasonal model
Instead of releasing a large chapter once a year and then smaller bits afterwards, ESO is completely switching to a dynamic seasonal model. The start is “Season Zero,” which will definitely not be a “zero-number.”
Now there’s finally a lot to do again. And for all ESO players!
You will regularly receive new content, fresh events, additional rewards, and exciting stories. The world of Tamriel will feel extremely lively and unpredictable again. Instead of rigid steps, the development of Tamriel will now proceed dynamically and organically, and not just according to the motto: “now it’s only this one region’s turn while the rest stands still.”
The Gold Coast Bazaar: Epic loot for effort, not for real money!
Critics of in-game shops will love this feature. With the new Gold Coast Bazaar, a completely new currency is introduced into the game, which you can earn just by playing and use to buy shop items.
You can score rare loot at the new Gold Coast Bazaar.
With these special bars, you can acquire extremely sought-after, old items, missed ESO Plus rewards from previous chapters, and even drops from loot boxes. The highlight: 16 mounts — including the brand new Ebony Dwarven Horse — are moving from the real money shop directly to the in-game vendor!
Tamriel Codices: Your free pass for the coolest cosmetics
With the “Tamriel Codices”, ESO is introducing a new, permanent progression system. The special thing about it is that you won’t be forced to do things you don’t want to do.
Lost mounts from previous events are now available again.
You simply play your favorite feature — whether it’s PvP battles, dungeons, or relaxed questing — gradually filling your Codex and unlocking completely stress-free permanent cosmetics, titles, and visual effects.
Tougher fights and QoL upgrades
For the veterans among you, who always found the open world a bit too easy, there is now the optional hard mode for zones. This means: more risk, but significantly better loot!
Numerous classes have been thoroughly reworked.
Along with that come a plethora of “Quality of Life” improvements: Your riding skills will now level up noticeably faster (finally!), the previously limited furnishing limits in housing have been significantly raised in many houses (FINALLY!), and the combat system of your old favorite classes has been thoroughly dusted off and modernized.
The Night Market: Your new PvE challenge
Get ready for an exciting new event zone. In the “Night Market”, you don’t just go out for a beer at the “Späti” at night; instead, you engage in thrilling battles!
The Night Market is not a cozy shopping spree!
Join one of three factions and dive into a fierce PvE group game where you’ll deal with bosses and challenging encounters.
Rally your guild, master the mechanics, and earn extremely rare rewards, including a completely free house!
Finally some PvP love again: The new veteran system
Even the competitive players among you will get their due now. With the new veteran system, your time in PvP will finally be properly rewarded again. Whether you measure yourself in the battlefields, roam through the Imperial City, or siege castles in Cyrodiil: You will now continuously progress for new and account-wide armor styles, weapons, titles, and powerful perks.
All of these features are coming soon in the new Season Zero: Dusk and Dawn starting April 2, 2026. If that isn’t the perfect opportunity to finally visit Tamriel again!

In Crimson Desert you have a huge map to explore. If you want to discover all the details, you need to uncover them. To do this, you must ring 8 special bells. Where you can find them, we will show you here.
What do the bells do? In Pywel, there are many bells that you must ring at various locations. They function like the viewpoints from Assassin’s Creed or the map pillars from Elden Ring. Those who interact with them can uncover a part of the map to learn more about the surrounding landscape and its secrets. So if you want to explore everything, you should find all 8.
Where can I find the bells? The bells are scattered throughout various cities in Pywel. On the map, you will find the exact locations. Some of them are easy to reach, while others require climbing. Below the map, we also list the names of the cities so you know where to look for the individual bells.
These are all locations for the bells in Pywel – a total of 8. (Source: mapgenie.io/crimson-desert)This is what a bell looks like in the game.Here you can see the map after a bell has been rung.

Is there a problem with the map? Not directly. If you have uncovered the map and are now shown various destinations, it can be a bit confusing at first. Often, you may have already completed some caves and dungeons, but these are still marked, without a green check or similar to indicate that you have already completed the location.
To check if your next target has been visited, you need to go to your journal. Under “Knowledge”, you can see all the caves, which are marked with dots:
No dot means not discovered and not visited
One dot means discovered, but not visited
Two dots mean discovered and visited
So you can quickly determine which places you still need to visit and which you might want to ignore. This greatly facilitates the exploration of Pywel.
One of the highlights of the animes coming out in the next few months is Witch Hat Atelier. Readers of the manga have been waiting since 2019 for the series to finally come out – and it has great ambitions.
Why was the anime in development for so long? The production for the Witch Hat Atelier anime took a whole 7 years. According to the producers on Instagram, that’s a long time, but if you had read the manga, you would understand why it took so long.
In the manga, there are extremely complicated drawings that need to be adapted into animation. As an example, the producer duo mentions magic. Even if the character is wrapped in light in just one drawing, it has to be depicted in much more detail in the anime. Because here, movements and colors also come into play.
Another factor that took time was consulting with the author. They want to coordinate every little detail about the magic with him to ensure that everything proceeds to his satisfaction.

Witch Hat Atelier aims to compete with The Lord of the Rings
What does it want to achieve? The producers talk about wanting to create something that can compete with other Hollywood blockbusters. As a comparison, the producer mentions The Lord of the Rings, which seems a bit megalomaniac but also endearing, as he presents it with a laugh.
Since the producer herself comes from the Harry Potter generation, she wants to introduce a new generation to a world of fantasy and magic. But adults should also be drawn into the charm of the anime.
One day she meets the wizard Qifrey, who takes her on as a student. He teaches her that one can also cast spells through the use of runes and magical ink.
The dark witch circle becomes interested in Coco due to her actions. Its goal is to revive the free use of magic. It was banned because several atrocities were committed with it in the past. Coco has to cope with the dark conspiracy while also dealing with her newly acquired magical knowledge.
Witch Hat Atelier is currently released on a weekly basis. To ensure you don’t miss the new episode, you can save the following article from MeinMMO. It reveals when the next episode will be released: Witch Hat Atelier: Episode 3 – Release Overview

Is Forgita worth it? Yes, absolutely. Because Forgita is not only a Pokémon that was relatively rare to catch, it is also a total hit in Pokémon GO’s PvP.
The reason: Granforgita learns its very own special attack, Giant Hammer, on Community Day. And it’s a truly, truly powerful attack. In the current rankings on PvPoke, Granforgita is catapulted to 3rd place in the Super League and 5th place in the Hyper League due to the new attack.

Note: In PvP you don’t necessarily need a 4-star Forgita, but you should pay more attention to a different stat distribution. You can read all about the best stats in PvP in Pokémon GO here.
Is the bonus worth it? Do you already have countless Forgita? Even then, the day is worth it for you, because you get triple Stardust for each individual catch. If you also use a Stardust Boost, you will get even more Stardust for half an hour. So: If your Stardust account is empty, the event is also top.
Tips for Community Day with Forgita
Use a Mega Pokémon: An active Mega Pokémon of Fairy or Steel type will give you extra candy and XP when catching Forgita. So use one of the following:
Mega Steelix
Mega Scizor
Mega Registeel
Mega Lucario
Mega Metagross
Mega Flunkifer
Mega Gardevoir
Mega Altaria
Mega Diancie
Mega Flunkifer
Prepare items: Some items can give you even more advantages.
Razz Berries: More candy when catching.
Incense and Lure Module: This will attract more Forgita.
Stardust Boost: Increases Stardust yield for 30 minutes by 1.5 times.
Poké Balls: You want to catch many Forgita. For that, you need plenty of Poké Balls.
And: Make space! Then you won’t have to send Pokémon during the event, but can just catch away.
Will you grab your Forgita this weekend? Or will you skip Community Day? Tell us in the comments! And if you’re looking for more dates in Pokémon GO now that the sun is slowly coming out: Here are all events in Pokémon GO in April 2026.

Many users download various programs every day without thinking. Each download can pose a potential danger. Even a popular diagnostic tool is now at risk.
Which software is affected? User OthoAi5657 points out in his Reddit post from April 10, 2026, that the CPUID website may have been hacked. According to the user, downloads from the website are affected and include malware, which antivirus programs mark as harmful.
The CPUID site is primarily known for its CPU-Z and HWMonitor programs. These are popular monitoring and diagnostic tools for your PC, which display current temperatures, fan speeds, and hardware information.
OthoAi made a total of three Reddit posts in the pcmasterrace subreddit on the same day, claiming to warn as many people as possible at once. The installer, according to him, was no longer in English, but a window with Russian text opened instead.
The user also attached a link to a virus check in his post. The check from Virustotal indicates that the file is compromised and brings dangerous content. Furthermore, users in the Reddit comments of the original post are divided on whether an update of older versions can download the malware.

Always double-check known download links
How do I know if I am affected? Currently, it is unclear what exactly is happening on the CPUID site. Many users believe that the site has been hacked or that download links are being redirected to spread malware.
We strongly advise against downloading software from the site as long as there is no official assurance that it is safe. Additionally, if you have already downloaded the programs, you should conduct a virus scan and then remove the applications (via Microsoft).
Even if the scanner does not alert, it is not worth the risk to keep the software. Opt for similar programs like MSI Afterburner. If you want to be on the safe side, you can also reset your PC to factory settings.
Nevertheless, there is always a chance that a download from the internet is harmful.
What can I do to protect myself? First of all, the most important thing is to always run your PC with antivirus software. By default, Microsoft Defender Antivirus is activated in Windows installations and is sufficient for most users.
If you prefer other antivirus programs, you can use them, but be careful not to run multiple different antivirus programs simultaneously, as they can negatively impact each other and jeopardize your protection. A YouTuber has demonstrated how to ruin your PC with pointless software in under 15 minutes.
The Twitch streamer NoWay is currently in the middle of his jungle challenge in League of Legends. During a match, he was randomly thrown into the Summoner’s Rift with an ex-professional player, but NoWay would rather not have him on the team.
Which ex-professional player did NoWay play with? In a new video on Youtube, NoWay plays what initially seems to be a harmless round of SoloQ in League of Legends. During champion selection, where the players’ names are replaced with names from the LoL universe, NoWay noticed an unusual choice by his top laner.
The first concern after the picked champ Rammus was that it might be the ex-professional TheBausffs. This concern was confirmed after NoWay saw the skin for Rammus and checked out TheBausffs’ Twitch stream.
Already at this point, before the round even started, NoWay feared it would not work and said: “No, that is also his skin, I think. No, no, no, no, no, no. Please not. Oh my God, no. Help. Oh God. Not Rammus. I’m already opening a Red Bull for the game.”

NoWay complains, the ex-pro ruins many matches
What is the problem with TheBausffs? During the round, NoWay says that it is often frustrating to play with the ex-pro. TheBausffs often does not care about what happens in SoloQ. Additionally, NoWay claims the ex-pro ruins many games with this behavior.
Although TheBausffs is a good player, NoWay has a rather negative opinion of the ex-pro: “You just don’t want him in your team in SoloQ.”
In the end, NoWay lost the round and TheBausffs left the match with 0 kills and 8 deaths.
Ex-pro has been banned in the past for his playstyle
What’s the deal with the bans? TheBausffs often plays very aggressively and dies frequently as it is part of his “strategy”. He became known for the brawler champ Sion by establishing the tactic “inting Sion”. By doing this, he intentionally dies to activate Sion’s passive ability, allowing him to continue fighting for a short time after death.
Sion is not just a real brawler champ in the MOBA. In the lore of the League of Legends universe, he has destroyed entire cities and was banished. Buried under a massive monument, Sion sleeps in the region of Noxus.

Both the pirate game Windrose and Crimson Desert were initially intended as multiplayer titles, but in both cases the developers changed direction. In the case of Windrose, it certainly paid off, as the anticipation for the soon-to-be Early Access release on Steamis huge.
What kind of game is this? Windrose is a new survival game with a pirate setting, developed by the Windrose Crew. On land and at sea, you fight your way through a Caribbean island world – alone or in co-op with other sword fighters.
Windrose was almost a completely different game. Under the name Crosswind, the developers initially wanted to create a Free2Play MMO. However, the feedback during the first alpha tests of that version was poor (according to Eurogamer.de).
The developers then decided to turn the ship around. Windrose thus became a premium title for one to four players. This is similar to the development story of Crimson Desert, which was originally announced as an MMORPG, but these plans were abandoned in favor of a pure single-player experience.
In a new trailer, the developers finally announce the release date of Windrose:
Start video
The pirate survival game Windrose finally has a release date, and it is already very close on the horizon
From Multiplayer to Co-op and one of the most wanted games on Steam
Was this change worth it? It certainly seems so, as the demo for the Steam Next Fest in February 2026 was received very well by players:
The 8,624 Steam reviews for the Windrose demo are 92% positive (as of April 10, 2026, 10:51 AM).
With over 22,000 concurrent players, the demo was among the most played at Steam Next Fest 2026 (according to steamdb.info)
Meanwhile, over 1.5 million players on Steam have added the title to their wish list. Thus, Windrose is one of the most requested games on the platform. However, when the survival game is finally supposed to be released, the developers did not want to reveal even about a month ago.
Now, however, a new trailer finally announces the release date: Windrose will be released on April 14, 2026 on Steam, initially only as an Early Access version. So don’t expect a finished, polished product. The game is not yet complete and will continue to be developed with feedback from the community.
Dune: Awakening finally addresses its biggest issue with the new update, although this does not please all players.
What is this issue? Dune: Awakening has suffered from an identity crisis since its release. The developers wanted their game to lean more towards hardcore survival with MMO and PvP aspects, such as large clans and guilds.
However, thanks to the popularity of the Dune brand, they attracted many players who have no interest in PvP at all. They enjoy the game also because of the films and prefer to engage in grinding, base building, and PvE content.
For the developers, this quickly became a problem, as while PvP players craved competitive PvP, more players wanted better PvE content. The developers chose to cater to the majority and built their survival game into a PvE title over many updates, but now there is perhaps the biggest change.
Here you can watch a trailer for Dune: Awakening:
Start video
Dune: Awakening shows Chapter 3 and the free content update in the trailer
Bye Bye PvP
What is this change? The endgame of Dune: Awakening consists mainly of the Deep Desert. There you can find the best resources in the game, but you can also be attacked by other players. Initially, the developers added a safe zone so that PvE players could no longer be ganked – but now it goes even further.
In a post on DuneAwakening.com, the developers announced that all PvP on the official servers will be turned off with the update. At the same time, there will be two versions of the Deep Desert on the servers:
A PvE version where you experience no threats from other players
A PvP version that promises 2.5 times more loot but offers the usual PvP
The developers explain that players are engaged in PvE activities 80% of the time, and they want to make both sides of the player base happy.
On Reddit, as expected, there are divided opinions. The PvE faction of players is very happy about the changes, while the PvP faction believes that this takes away the last appeal of PvP in Dune: Awakening. But there is also a chance for PvP players.
What is this chance? A major new feature announced by the developers is the self-hostable servers. With the update, players can host and customize their own servers.
This will also allow PvP players to create full PvP servers that are designed for competing with other players. At the same time, the servers allow group play for friend groups. Until now, it was only possible to rent a server from provider Nitrado.
A free Borderlands was surprisingly released, but only a few players can play it, and Take-Two must explain that it is not a scam.
What is this new game? On April 9, 2026, a new Borderlands was surprisingly released. The American development studio “Zynga” released “Borderlands Mobile,” a free spin-off of the popular loot shooter franchise for mobile devices – but without a major announcement or introduction of the game.
Borderlands Mobile is currently only available in the USA and was also released there exclusively in the Apple App Store for iOS devices. The game is free-to-play, rated 18 and up, currently about 2.9 GB in size, and limited to the English language.

Borderlands 4: Cineastischer Launch-Trailer zelebriert den Release
Cheap copy or an official spin-off? 2K speaks out
This is what the game is about: Since the game was not developed by Gearbox and neither Take-Two nor 2K Games initially commented on Borderlands Mobile, and there was no official announcement of the game anywhere, some fans doubted the authenticity and legality of the mobile spin-off.
A user wrote in the subreddit for Borderlands 4: “I’m confused… Is this an official game or is it just a ‘Let me copy your homework’ mobile game?”
In the meantime, 2K Games has commented on Borderlands Mobile and confirmed that the game is indeed an official spin-off. In response to Forbes, a spokesperson stated:
“We are always looking for ways to bring Borderlands to a new audience. The Zynga studio NaturalMotion is currently conducting a limited-time test for an untitled Borderlands project for mobile devices, with Gearbox providing creative input on the design, story, and background of the game series. We hope players enjoy this new Borderlands experience and look forward to their feedback.”
Zynga, the development studio behind Borderlands Mobile, has been part of Take-Two Interactive for several years and is therefore part of the same corporate group as 2K Games and Borderlands developer Gearbox Software. The acquisition of Zynga made headlines because the purchase offer, according to the CEO of Take-Two, was around $12.7 billion.
This is what the game is about: According to the first U.S. testers, the game apparently follows its own, new story that takes place shortly after the events of Borderlands 3.
Since it is initially only a limited-time test, only one vault hunter is currently playable. However, it is already visible in the menu that there will be 3 more. The gameplay itself is heavily based on the Borderlands formula but is noticeably tailored for mobile, meaning shorter missions.
Players who play Pokémon GO rely on other trainers for certain features. This is difficult when no one is playing nearby. Fortunately, one can rely on the online community.
In Pokémon GO, there are many features that can only be fully utilized with multiple players. One doesn’t even need to look at the challenging Gigantamax battles – even the basic gym feature in Pokémon GO is hardly usable when there are few or no players around.
But one player apparently has it a lot harder: As user Sea-Of-Bitterness-MKreports in the subreddit for Pokémon GO, it seems that really no one plays Pokémon GO nearby. In the comments, he explains that he lives in Afghanistan.
There are basically no gyms, PokéStops, or anything around me, the player recounts in his post. Hardly any Pokémon appear as well. He just checks every few hours to see if one has popped up: I have been playing for a week and I’m at level 15 with 76 Pokémon.
However, through the post, the user suddenly is not so alone anymore: Because the community from the rest of the world is rallying to help him.

Users want to help from a distance to play the game better
What are other players doing? In the comments, many people report that they want to help the player to be able to play more.
But how does that work? How can one play with others when it seems likely that one is the only player over many kilometers?
The number one measure is friend codes: They exchange them to send gifts to each other, thus obtaining items and especially leveling up. Because friendships are a great way to collect XP. People from San Diego, Portland, London, and other places immediately report in the comments, wanting to play together with the user and send gifts.
By pinning postcards from gifts, the user could also secure some Purmel to gather more Pokémon.
Several people point out that the user should engage with Wayfarer. The user should start submitting PokéStops in his neighborhood as soon as he has built up the necessary level through friendships. This way, he could theoretically build a map full of POIs if things go well.
How is it in your area? Even in this country, there are enough places where hardly any players are out and about. Then one desperately searches for the next gym to take over or for people to complete the next difficult raid. There was also an interesting case recently regarding an arena that is hardly found and therefore has housed Pokémon for a very long time.

With Malcolm in the Middle: Unfair as always, the cult family is back. After 20 years, Hal and Lois are back, still happily married despite the long time. The actors revealed in an interview why that is.
Since April 10th, you can watch the return of Malcolm in the Middle on Disney Plus. This is almost 20 years after the last episode, which originally aired on May 14, 2006. In the new series, Malcolm has to face his old family with his new family, which he has long neglected.
This happens on the occasion of Hal’s (Bryan Cranston) and Lois’s (Jane Kaczmarek) 40th wedding anniversary. They are still happily married, unlike the main characters from Scrubs. The actors of both characters know exactly why the couple still works after all these years.

Malcolm in the Middle: Unfair as always shows in the trailer why Malcolm hides from his family
The marriage of the two is also positive for the viewers
What are the secrets of Hal and Lois’s marriage? In the context of the new series, Jane Kaczmarek and Bryan Cranston spoke with Deadline about their characters from Malcolm in the Middle. Kaczmarek immediately recalls a reference to episode 5 of season 1: They have good sex. I mean, I have to say that. And I don’t think they let that prevent them from being the heart of the family.
In the episode, Hal and Lois argue constantly after they have to live in a trailer because their house is being fumigated. They realize at the end of the episode that they need to have sex to resolve their conflicts, and they ultimately buy gas masks to get into their house.
Cranston gives a more detailed answer and explains that Hal’s character is simply romantic:
I believe, however, that he does it out of fear. I think Hal does all these things because he thinks: “Oh, will she ever leave me? I feel like I have to keep showing her how much I love her.”
The love and marriage between the two has, according to Cranston, a positive effect on the viewers. It conveys a feeling of security to the audience because they stay together, no matter what happens. The family in the series is crazy, but their love allows them to dive into any imaginable kind of escapades [without problems].
Regarding the marriage of the characters, Kaczmarek also praises the script of the series. According to her, they were lucky to play these characters for so long.
The developers of the Pokémon MMO TemTem presented their new game on Steam in the evening. This strongly resembles Palworld and gives players entirely new opportunities to interact with their TemTems.
What kind of game is this? TemTem Pioneers is a mix of survival, creature collector, and action RPG and strongly resembles Palword from its first trailer. Players will be able to gather resources, build their own base, protect it from raids, and craft many items.
At the same time, there are over 200 different TemTems, which are probably already known from the MMO spin-off and can be leveled and evolved. In battle, you assume the role of a TemTem and use various abilities and combos to take down even large bosses.
The TemTem universe is already known from the MMO, which resembles Pokémon. The new title is a spin-off of it and has immediately captured the interest of fans.
Here you can watch the trailer for TemTem Pioneers:

€90,000 in 8 hours
How did the fans react to the new title? TemTem has already made a name for itself with its MMO and has gained some fans. This is also reflected in the Kickstarter campaign for the new spin-off. There, the requested €90,000 was reached in just 8 hours. The developers from Spain seemingly missed the rush for their title and only saw the amount the next morning.
At the time of this article (9 AM on April 10, 2026), the donation counter is already at nearly €110,000 and is on track for the first stretch goal. Here, players can unlock the new biome “Crystal Biome,” which will likely also unlock the “Crystal Tem” monsters.
Meanwhile, in the comments on Kickstarter, fans are expressing their excitement about the project and many also praise the work on the predecessor.
What about Palworld? TemTem Pioneers is clearly oriented towards Palworld. The colorful mix of open-world, creature collector, and survival action game is unmistakable. However, the developers of Palworld hold no grudges against TemTem Pioneers; on the contrary.
On X.com, Bucky, the community manager of Palworld, speaks out. He explains there that they wish “only the best” for TemTem and their new game. At the same time, he addresses the accusations that TemTem is just a copy of Palworld.
Here he says that the developers of Palworld think the game looks good and they are looking forward to being able to play it soon.
When does TemTem Pioneers launch? However, it will likely still take a while until the release of TemTem Pioneers. Although there is no date to be found on Steam, the rewards on Kickstarter are expected to be delivered in December 2028. Whether the planned alpha for supporters on Kickstarter will start earlier is still uncertain.

The community of Warhammer 40,000 has found a new favorite. The latest warrior of a tabletop player is currently capturing thousands of hearts and is dubbed an “unfair advantage.”
But Wormy is not just cute; he is so cute that countless tabletop players are at his feet, even though a worm doesn’t even have feet. But better see for yourself what Wormy looks like.

Wormy is introduced as the newest member of his Tyranid army. Additionally, the user asks for feedback on his painting technique. With Wormy, he tested the so-called “glazing.” This is a technique where multiple layers of heavily diluted paint are applied.
This is supposed to create a nice gradient of colors, as seen on Wormy at the transition from the purple chitin plate to his head. The light shadows between the individual spherical body segments were also painted with this technique.
Thousands have suddenly fallen in love with Wormy
What does the Warhammer community say about Wormy? So far, the post has gathered over 9,300 upvotes (as of April 10, 2026, at 8:30 AM). After the post was published, there were a lot of comments from other Warhammer fans who claimed to have fallen in love with Wormy.
The top comment with 1,000 upvotes features an edited image with Wormy in focus and reads: “I only met Wormy a day and a half ago, but if anything happened to him, I would kill everyone in this room and then myself.” It is a Wormy version of a meme from the series Brooklyn 99.
Another Reddit user has claimed they would never allow the poster to bring Wormy into a game of Warhammer against them. Their reasoning: Wormy is just too cute to kill and thus provides a real “unfair advantage.”
What do you think of Wormy, and have you perhaps even created your own warriors for your Warhammer army?
The difficulty in Crimson Desert is high. So, it’s not a shame, but even desirable, to occasionally struggle against bosses. What you can do when you’re stuck, we will explain.
Crimson Desert offers you no option to adjust the difficulty in the settings. However, boss fights and sieges can be tough – sometimes too tough. Are you constantly getting hit and unable to defeat the enemies before they send you to the afterlife?
Don’t worry, as the game provides various ways to ease tough challenges, even without adjustable difficulty. Here is our list of things you should do when you fail in battles:
Crimson Desert: Launch trailer shows new bosses, dragon action and the storming of a moving train
Pack as much healing through food as possible
If an enemy seems difficult at first glance, more healing items are the easiest way to still succeed. The key when you face challenges is to optimize your healing management. You should pay attention to the following points:
Gather and buy mainly one type of meat so that you don’t clutter your inventory → As much as you can and whenever you can
Always cook the best dishes possible at the cooking pot that heal you fully so you can better focus on the fight without needing to replenish every few seconds
Don’t hesitate to also buy dishes from vendors and other merchants. Money will become less of a concern over time
Use healing early to avoid dying during enemy combos
If you pay attention to these points, you have already gained a lot. Because the more healing you bring into the fight, the more mistakes you can afford and damage you can take, as long as you know you can withstand it.
If you also want to succeed in Crimson Desert, our YouTube video with 30 tips for beginners is just right for you:

The second major factor you should address when you’re stuck is your equipment. It’s worth upgrading it regularly at the blacksmith if there isn’t already significantly better equipment available somewhere. The best place for this is the blacksmith in Hernand, as he is centrally located – alternatively, you can access the blacksmith at your camp if you are already that far.
For that, you need to gather the respective resources that the blacksmith specifies. Most of it you can gather in the immediate area at the beginning, such as ores or types of wood. However, some items you will also need to acquire from vendors or enemies, such as cloth scraps.
This way, you can increase your stats strategically and provide a buffer. Resources that you find will also be marked on your map, so you can quickly return there to continue farming. This may take time, but it is worth it when you’re stuck.
Additionally, you should always use the anvil and whetstone, as their use is free, and you get a buff for your defense and attack, which can make a significant difference.
Collect Abyss artifacts & upgrade abilities
This point is a bit more complex than the other two – but it can provide you with crucial advantages if you are unable to progress through the faster methods. If you can’t get further through healing and your equipment, you need to upgrade your abilities.
The best way to do this is by collecting artifact points. You earn these by completing main quests, defeating bosses, exploring the map, solving Abyss puzzles, and mastering the tasks of the sealed Abyss artifacts.
Furthermore, by defeating enemies, you fill the yellow bar next to your minimap. Once it’s full, you gain another upgrade point for your abilities. Focus especially on your health points (the large red area), your stamina (large blue area), and attacks (the smaller blue areas) that support your playstyle.
If you have trouble finding the Abyss puzzles, look for high points and check with the reflection for clues. Alternatively, a larger area will be marked with a question mark if you have already explored the region but have not yet found the local marker or nexus.
Maintain patience and play passively instead of rushing in
This tip may seem trivial, but in the heat of battle, it can still help to remind yourself of it. Crimson Desert thrives on you learning the movesets of the enemies and finding suitable windows for your abilities.
In battles where you get stuck, it can help to play more calmly and to dodge more often and maintain distance, rather than rushing to deal damage at all costs. Thus, fights may take longer, but you ideally won’t have to fight them more often.
Many bosses have combos after which they pause briefly – your moment to deal as much damage as possible and then retreat. Prepare potent combos with your preferred character and weapon combination for these phases, with which you can strike fast and hard.
Additionally, it’s worth experimenting and regularly using the reflection to make the weaknesses of the opponent visible and to focus on them. A more passive playstyle suits this well until you get the hang of it.
Bonus: Expand the camp early & take companions with you
Not a direct aid to perform better against bosses, but in the long run, it’s a significant relief: Expand your camp with the graumähne (Silver-maned horses) as early as possible. The more you do this, the more access points you have gathered there, saving you long walks.
This way, you can ensure that you find, for example, a cook, a blacksmith, and other service facilities that will help you prepare for tough battles. Because once you’ve unlocked the teleporter at your camp, all you need to do when facing difficulties is return to your camp, and you can equip yourself without having to travel further for the respective boss or siege fight.
To expand your camp, you must complete all the side quests of the graumähne. So always accept them when you see the graumähne symbol on the map.
Crimson Desert is a game that doesn’t hold your hand. Much will be explained little or not at all. While this encourages experimentation and puzzling, it can also quickly lead to frustration.

The powerful bosses you encountered in Crimson Desert are waiting to challenge you again. With Boss Revenge, you have the opportunity to face any boss again to test how much you’ve grown and to further refine your combat style through different strategies and approaches.
■ Renewed Blockades
Peace is fleeting, and darkness does not recede so easily. Remaining enemies are waiting for their chance to reclaim liberated places. Drive out the forces that have occupied these places again and prove the strength of the Graymanes once more.
■ Difficulty Levels
A function for difficulty levels is being added so that everyone, from novices to experienced Graymanes, can enjoy the adventure at the level that suits them best. You will be able to choose between Easy, Normal, and Hard levels.
In addition, we are working on more content that focuses on combat. So stay tuned.
Improvements to Character Gameplay
■ New Skills for Damiane and Oongka
We understand your feedback regarding Damiane and Oongka and know that they need skills comparable to “Power Fist” and “Might of Axioms.” To implement this, both characters will receive new skills that are on par with these skills.
■ Hide Back Weapons
A new option will be added that allows you to hide the weapons on your character’s back. This will prevent immersion in battle from being disrupted by certain pieces of equipment carried on the back.
■ Addition of New Outfits New outfits for the characters will be added. Additionally, you will be able to wear some outfits that were previously only available for sale or donation in the future.
Improved Comfort Functions and Additional Features
■ New Specialized Storages

– Wardrobe: A new storage for clothing will be added where you can store headgear, armors, gloves, footwear, and capes.
– Material Storage: A new storage for collectible items will be added, from which you can directly take items for crafting and refining. This storage can hold various crafting materials, including insects, stones, ores, and more.
– Collection Storage: A storage for quest items will be added where you can safely keep the souvenirs from your adventure as well as your carefully collected recipes.
■ Pets & Mounts
New pets and mounts that can be summoned will be added. Furthermore, we plan to add special armor for other mounts in addition to the existing horse saddles.
Systems and Graphics
■ UI Improvements
To enhance readability, an option for adjusting minimum font size will be added. Since we offer our service in 14 languages, fully optimizing for all languages will take some time. However, to make your gaming experience as smooth as possible, this feature will be implemented as a priority. Additionally, we plan to continuously optimize various UI elements and comfort features such as the world map, inventory, and housing content.
■ Control Improvement
We review every single piece of feedback regarding the controls that you send us very carefully. To provide you with an even better gaming experience, we will introduce a feature for customizing certain buttons for gamepads. Additionally, we will expand the customization options for keyboard and mouse to further enhance usability.
■ Improvement of Draw Distance
To allow you to enjoy the beauty of Pywel’s landscapes even more intensely, we are working on making the rendering of distant backgrounds even more realistic. Please note that the patch may take up more space. The reason for this is improvements in the rendering of distant landscapes and rendering quality under various conditions. Take a look at the image below to get an initial impression of the changed appearance of Pywel.
Additionally, a free soundtrack DLC will be added on Steam so that you can enjoy the Crimson Desert OST at various places. The official soundtrack will also be released on common global music platforms. We hope you are looking forward to it.

The actors of Luffy, Sanji, and Zoro from the Netflix series about One Piece had to create a ranking. It was about who is the best anime hero of all time. And Luffy only ranks 5th.
What does the ranking look like? On the TikTok channel of flighthouse, the actors Iñaki Godoy, Taz Skylar, and Mackenyu were invited to create a ranking of the best anime characters. The following anime characters made it into the top 5:
Son-Goku (Dragon Ball)
Ash Ketchum (Pokémon)
Sailor Moon
Naruto
Monkey D. Luffy (One Piece)
Although the actors appear in the live-action adaptation of One Piece and even play Luffy, they placed this character at the bottom of the list. You can watch the video here:

They placed Son-Goku in the first position out of respect. The manga of Dragon Ball has inspired many other Shonen stories, including One Piece, and was the pioneer of the genre. Close behind is Ash Ketchum from Pokémon. Pokémon is not only an important anime but also a significant video game franchise.
Sailor Moon is as iconic as Goku and Naruto and actually deserved to be in the top 3. Thus, only the 5th place remains for Luffy.

Ranking was not created quite fairly
How was the ranking created? The ranking is a blind ranking. A ranking is created without the individuals knowing in advance which characters, foods, or other items they need to rank.
So, it may be that objects that are ranked last would have ended up in a completely different place if the person had known beforehand what they needed to rank.
And you can also see this in the 3 actors. They are visibly disappointed that Luffy is mentioned last and is left with only the fifth place. Taz Skylar charmingly says that Luffy will always be number 1 in his heart and thus the actor.
In WoW: Midnight, you encounter numerous figures who have experienced and gone through a lot in their past. However, in the current expansion, you learn very little about this. That’s enough reason for a fan to create a remedy with an addon. The community is thrilled.
What is this addon? The modification for World of Warcraft is called IMAGO and offers a chronicle of the unforgettable heroes of Azeroth. KYLI4N_, the creative mind behind the addon, explains on Reddit that he got the idea while playing the current expansion Midnight.
When I started playing WoW four years ago, I was completely overwhelmed. I loved the world and was fascinated by the lore, but I constantly stumbled into significant characters and epic story arcs without any context. Either you already know the story, or you have to Alt-Tab into a wiki, which completely ruins the immersion.
Midnight has brought back this feeling in a way that no expansion has done before. I constantly walked through Silvermoon and thought about what this city has gone through while standing next to characters who survived things most players have never read about. And there was just… nothing in the game that could close that knowledge gap.
This is exactly where his addon aims to provide all the essential information for story and lore enthusiasts. For example, if you target a significant NPC, you unlock their chronicle entry and learn who they are, what role they’ve played in WoW so far, and what their significance in Midnight is. There are also entries for the regions of the current expansion.
Currently, the addon includes info cards for 56 selected characters and 7 zones. With the continuation of the Midnight storyline, more entries are expected in the future. KYLI4N_ also explains that he used AI tools to summarize the information for the addon into suitable text snippets.

“Blizzard really has one of the best gaming communities”
How is the addon received? The more than 6,450 thumbs up and over 340 comments in just 12 hours underline how positively KYLI4N_’s work is received by a large part of the community.
Mammoth_Opposite_647 writes on Reddit: “Blizzard really has one of the best gaming communities, and I don’t know if the developers even realize that.”
Late_Stage_Exception sees a need for such information on Reddit as well: “I was in a random group last night where it took forever between fights, so I looked at the old bosses in the dungeon journal and… it almost feels criminal how little background text or information there is about it.”
crabby654 celebrates on Reddit: “Damn, that’s really awesome.”
ABoldBoi also praises on Reddit: “This is so cool! It reminds me a lot of the Codex library from Star Wars: The Old Republic, where you could unlock background information about events, places, or characters you were currently dealing with. I hope you continue!”
The addon, which was released 16 hours ago on curseforge.com, currently has about 1,500 downloads. There are praise comments there, but also initial bug reports.
