In the trading post of World of Warcraft, there are plenty of beautiful rewards. In June 2024, stylish bikinis and colorful beach chairs await.
A new month has begun, and with it, there are new offers in the trading post of World of Warcraft. June is not only often celebrated as “Pride Month” in the colors of the rainbow, but in many parts of the world, it also marks the start of the hot days and thus summer. Accordingly, the trading post now features the theme “Summer Fun.”

WoW: The Trading Post is Coming, First Video Shows Many Rewards
What rewards can you expect? With the rewards in June 2024, there are real swimwear for the first time in World of Warcraft – namely, bikinis and other beach outfits that you can buy for trader currency. Of course, there are also sunglasses and sun hats, as you don’t just want to bake on the beach.
The fact that the rewards are particularly colorful is no coincidence. After all, it is also Pride Month, which Blizzard celebrates a little. The “Colorful Beach Chair” in the colors of the rainbow makes this particularly clear – the perfect accessory to just relax a bit at the next beach party in Stranglethorn Valley.
With this, you will definitely be the center of attention at the next beach event.
As a reward for completing the travel journal, there is a toy, the “X-treme Water Blaster Display.” With this, you can equip yourself and others with water guns and create a little cooling off.
Hunters can also obtain the weapon as a transmog for their ranged weapons – but then it is significantly deadlier.
What tasks should you complete? As usual, you have numerous options to fill your travel journal. If you are already playing WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria, you will likely earn almost half of the necessary points there “on the side.” You simply need to collect bronze, level up a bit, and complete daily quests. The rest can be easily done with Dragonflight tasks – such as killing a world boss or visiting a few dungeons.

In Pokémon GO there are missed Pokémon that trainers painfully remember even years later. MeinMMO author Paul Kutzner has such memories and explains to you which two missed monsters hurt him the most.
My first steps in Pokémon GO were taken in 2016 right at the start of the game. It was an exciting time when it felt like the whole friend circle was on a virtual hunt for Pokémon. Provided the servers allowed it.
Compared to the early days, a lot has changed in Pokémon GO over the years. Many things from the early days of the game are completely unfamiliar to trainers who started later. This includes leveling up gyms or hunting footprints to catch Pokémon.
Especially the latter feature, combined with the fact that there were simply fewer Pokémon and Pokémon that are common today were a rarity, caused cheers or frustration. I can still vividly remember two painful situations from back then. What they are, I have summarized for you below.
Start video
Pokémon GO: It’s time to #RediscoverGO!
Follow the footprints!
What were footprints? At the beginning of the game, there were between 1 – 3 footprints under each Pokémon in the “Pokémon nearby” section instead of the PokéStops where you find the Pokémon. The fewer footprints under the Pokémon, the closer the Pokémon was.
If you saw a strong or rare Pokémon in the “Pokémon nearby” section, it meant: run until the footprints decrease. The direction of the Pokémon could only be determined by keeping an eye on the footprints and waiting for them to decrease.
The footprints looked like this Tauros
The first memory: On one of the first days in Pokémon GO, I was just playing with 2 friends when we suddenly discovered a Rhyhorn in the list. A Rhyhorn! Of course, we knew we needed it. The Pokémon was still rare back then, and having a Rhydon on the team was a goal we were willing to search for.
So we set off and could locate it after a while. We approached the Pokémon, the footprints decreased and our anticipation grew. Just before we got to the place where we suspected it, the big disappointment came: a garden.
Since we were not willing to intrude on private property and break into a stranger’s garden, we had to end the hunt at this point. Disappointed, we left and comforted our frustration with other Pokémon we encountered on the way.
Seconds before the goal!
The second memory: Shortly after, the second story occurred. After a long day, I had just arrived home and changed clothes when I opened Pokémon GO and saw a Pokémon that no one in my friend circle had seen until then: a Lapras!
Of course, that was enough reason for me to change again and go on the hunt. I searched the area, always keeping an eye on the footprints, and slowly approached the Pokémon. From 3 footprints it became 2, from 2 it became 1 – and gone. Lapras was no longer displayed.
I had missed the Pokémon. Maybe by a minute, maybe just by a few seconds. Once again marked by disappointment, I packed my smartphone and began the journey back home.
On Reddit, you can also find some stories from trainers from the early days of Pokémon GO that they still remember today.
I still remember a Dragonair that spawned near my house in early 2017 when they were SUPER rare. After I threw 5 balls at the Pokémon, it simply disappeared. I was really disappointed and felt like I had failed, reports a trainer on Reddit
In 2017, I saw a Dragonite. I walked 10 minutes to it and saw that it had ‘???’ CP, which means it had at least 2800 CP. It broke free several times and ran away. The 10-minute walk back home was terrible, recalls another trainer on Reddit
Snorlax, 2016. To this day, I can’t get rid of a Snorlax, writes another trainer on Reddit
So there are more trainers who have similar painful memories.
What about you? Do you have such or similar stories from the early days or later that you still remember well? Feel free to share your stories with us in the comments. By the way, there’s the first information about the new season in Pokémon GO.

The majority of the strongest fighters in One Piece are male. There are only a few women who can compete with the men. However, some of them are so strong that they are by no means inferior to their male counterparts. MeinMMO lists the 5 strongest female fighters.
Attention, this reflects the current state from manga and anime. Therefore, some placements and bounties could be a spoiler for you.
What criteria were used to create this ranking? The following factors were taken into account when creating the list:
It doesn’t matter which faction the lady belongs to. She can be a member of the Revolutionary Army, the World Government, or a pirate.
For the female pirates, the height of the bounty was used as a measure of strength.
The women have strong abilities, such as Devil Fruits.
There must have already been a significant appearance of the person. Catarina Devon, for example, did not make it into the ranking because she was only seen briefly in the manga.
The ranking is not 100% objective. If you have a different opinion and would like to see other women in the ranking, feel free to write it to us in the comments!

Rank 5: Black Maria
Black Maria also strikes in close combat.
Faction: Pirate, 100 Beast Pirates
Bounty: 480 million Berry
Black Maria is part of the “Flying Six” and thus one of the strongest members of Kaido’s pirate crew. She has eaten the Spider-Fruit, Model: Rosamygale Grauvogeli. This allows her to transform into a tarantula, a human, or a combination of both. As a spider being, she can cling to walls and produce spider webs that ensnare her opponents. In addition, her spider legs produce poison.
She is also quite skilled in close combat. In battle against Sanji, Brook, and Nico Robin, she uses multiple melee weapons to defend herself. Additionally, she masters Armament and Observation Haki. However, she loses to Nico Robin in a direct fight, which is why she ranks only fifth on this list.
Rank 4: Stussy
She behaves like a vampire.
Faction: World Government, CP0
Bounty: –
Stussy is actually not a human but the first successful clone of the scientific group MADS. She is based on Miss Buckingham Stussy, who was part of the legendary Rocks Pirates. No wonder she ranks among the strongest intelligence members of the World Government.
Stussy’s abilities resemble that of a vampire. She can grow wings on her back and suck the blood of her opponents. She can also put enemies to sleep. She possesses strong physical abilities, is agile, and masters Rokushiki Martial Arts. She is therefore a serious opponent.

Rank 3: Nico Robin
She is the strongest Straw Hat pirate.
Faction: Pirate, Straw Hat Crew
Bounty: 930 million Berry
Nico Robin is the strongest woman in the Straw Hat crew. She has eaten the Flower-Flower Fruit, which allows her to sprout arms and legs. The abilities can be used in various ways, for example, as wings or transportation.
The Straw Hat pirate possesses not only physical but also intellectual strength. She is one of the few people who can decipher the ancient script. This dangerous ability has made her one of the most wanted pirates by the World Government.

Minthara in Baldur’s Gate 3 is a character that few get to know better. But that is exactly what the lead writer behind the RPG loves.
In Baldur’s Gate 3, there are a variety of characters, and some supposed villains can be redeemed and even recruited as companions. The game’s lead writer revealed in an interview why Minthara holds a particularly special role for him.
Start video
Baldur’s Gate 3 is coming to PS5 – Trailer prepares for console release
Who is speaking? That is Adam Smith, the lead writer from Larian. He was responsible for a large part of the dialogues in Baldur’s Gate 3. Even though he did not write many dialogues himself and was mainly responsible for revising and adapting the texts of other authors, he spent a lot of time with Minthara and worked on her story. In an interview with PCGamer on YouTube, he spoke about a character he particularly liked: Minthara.
What did Smith say? In the interview, he revealed why Minthara is so special to him. This is mainly because very few players will ever get to know her in depth.
We knew from the start that Minthara is a character that most will kill. She is a villain. You meet her, you can recruit her – but most will kill her, and we knew that from the beginning. We knew that all the work to write so much dialogue for her would only be appreciated by very few people.

But it is precisely this fact that very few players will ever get to see that has made him satisfied. Because he further explains:
I have included a line that I don’t know how many people will ever see. (…)
There’s a moment where she comes quite close to you. And when she does that, she has a little crisis with her self-confidence. You can then tell her: “Look, you are stronger than anyone I have ever met.”
She then says: “If I hadn’t met you, I would still be a lunatic doing things in the name of a god that doesn’t even exist.”
And then you say: “But you met me.”
She replies: “Yes, but in 9 out of 10 cases, I would just be another corpse on your crusade.”
That is a small, sad moment, but at the same time, it’s a small hint to the players by stating: Yes, in all your other playthroughs, she will probably just die.
Smith particularly enjoys writing lines and dialogue that he knows only a tiny fraction of the player base will ever see. After all, Minthara is relatively obviously a villain and will simply be killed by most players. Many who do not engage with the game on external sites will never learn that Minthara is a character who can be recruited for the player’s party.
[Minthara] is a terrible person and should not be saved. But … the moments I love are the ones we write for a very small audience and when they reach it, they get something special. That’s the stuff I love.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is full of choices, and many of them are even hidden behind specific classes or races. This leads to many special moments that others will probably never see. Smith shares many interesting things in interviews anyway – he thought that Larian was on the decline and Baldur’s Gate 3 would be terrible.

In a new video, Marco from Nerdkultur talks about the sci-fi hit DUNE 2 and explains what makes it a technically and artistically outstanding film.
Who is Marco Risch? Since 2015, Marco Risch has been uploading videos with news, reviews, analyses, and interviews about current films, series, and video games on his YouTube channel Nerdkultur.
In his Podcast Nerd & Kultur, he chats every Sunday with his colleague Yves Arievich about topics like Star Wars, Marvel, and DC. With both, he is part of the Webedia network, which also includes MeinMMO.
In a new video, he now talks about the carefully thought-out details and profound symbolism that make the sci-fi hit Dune 2 a truly great film:

Afterwards you will see DUNE 2 with different eyes
Why is Dune 2 so good? The sequel to this sci-fi epic was masterfully crafted right in the first few minutes, as Marco explains in his video. The film’s opening scenes were originally planned as the ending of the first part.
By using them as an entry point for the sequel, it offers viewers a seamless transition. Through a slow build-up of tension and wordless character moments, Denis Villeneuve manages to draw us as viewers deep into the world of Arrakis.
In his video, Marco further discusses the technical methods that make DUNE 2 a true masterpiece. Among other things, he explains what makes the cinematography in this film so special, which he could personally discuss with the “Fight Coordinator” of DUNE 2, Vi-Dan Tran.
Throughout the entire narrative of DUNE, the symbolism of the bull runs, as Marco explains in his video. From the death of a character in bullfighting to a name that presumably means ox. This symbolism reflects the deeply rooted conflicts and fates of the characters.

Humans are losing their best racial bonus in WoW: The War Within. But the replacement is unpopular – most players consider it useless.
In World of Warcraft, all races have several specific racial bonuses, also known as “Racials”. These are mostly small abilities with minor impact that are meant to fit the respective race. Humans previously had an extremely strong bonus that increased their reputation gain. However, with the new expansion “The War Within”, this disappears – and the replacement is already extremely unpopular.
Start video
WoW: The War Within – All the major features of the new expansion
What was the previous bonus? Until now, humans had the bonus “Diplomacy”. This bonus ensured that they received an additional 10% reputation from all sources. This meant that humans could raise their reputation factions to the maximum faster than any other race in WoW.
This is a clear advantage, especially with factions that can only be farmed a limited amount per day or week – for example, through world quests or daily tasks. Especially in a time when rewards such as gear or new questlines are tied to prestige levels that are bound to reputation.
Now that all reputation progress becomes account-wide with The War Within, the bonus is no longer useful. Therefore, humans will receive a replacement.
What do humans get instead? The new human racial ability will be called “No Place like Home” and will reduce the cooldown of the hearthstone by 5 minutes. Additionally, the hearthstone will now have two charges, allowing you to return to your chosen inn much more frequently.
Why is this being criticized? The new racial bonus has no practical use in the eyes of most players. Characters rarely need to return to their inn anyway, and in a world where dynamic flying allows for extremely fast movement, the advantage of this is further reduced.

Especially in the WoW subreddit, several memes are circulating about the old racial bonus being removed without a replacement or that the new bonus is merely a worse version of the Vulpera bonus.
Please note that the new racial bonus is still an ability from the alpha of The War Within. It is entirely possible that Blizzard will revise this ability and provide something different. What would you like to see as the bonus for humans?

In September 2023, the Twitch streamer NoWay was robbed during his stay in France. The perpetrators were later identified and have since been convicted.
NoWay was initially threatened outside his hotel after dinner by two men with a gun, which later turned out to be fake, and then attacked with a kitchen knife. The apparent target of the two criminals was his Rolex, which he eventually handed over to avoid further harm.
The two perpetrators were identified a few months after the crime and have since been convicted.

The perpetrators are facing prison time
What punishment are the perpetrators facing? NoWay reported in his stream on Twitch on May 29 that the perpetrators have indeed been caught. However, that is not all, as they are also said to have been convicted.
Both are reportedly set to receive a 2-year prison sentence each, plus one year on probation. Additionally, it is said that the perpetrators must pay 20,000 euros for the watch and as compensation for pain and suffering. Both perpetrators were convicted according to NoWay for bodily harm and armed robbery.
When asked in his chat whether he thinks he will see any of the money, he replied with a clear “Yes.” He reports that the regulations in France are different from those in Germany and that criminals must contribute to a fund which is paid out to the plaintiff in such cases. He also reports that he is already receiving monthly payments from this case.
Community reactions: In a post on Reddit, the conviction of the perpetrators is being discussed by users. Many seem to be happy for the streamer that the perpetrators were caught.
Some users write:
Sorieen writes on Reddit: Oh, I’m happy for him. That really affected him back then, the mess. Only love for Noway, one of the few (larger) streamers who stays grounded.
clouder300 comments on Reddit: Nice. The French police delivered.

When does Heavenly Teamwork start? The season begins on June 1, 2024, at 10:00 AM.
When does the season end? It runs until September 3, 2024, at 10:00 AM. Thus, it will run as usual for roughly three months, but plus two days.
What are the highlights of the season? The most likely highlight will be the GO Fest, which will take place during the season – first in local variants, then as a global event for all players. Necrozma, its fusion forms, Lunala, Solgaleo, and even Marshadow will appear there.
However, as is customary with seasonal changes, many things in the game will be rearranged. This applies to wild spawns, research breakthroughs, and similar aspects. Numerous events will also take place throughout the season.
The most exciting Pokémon have probably just been introduced by Niantic in the trailer, which you can watch here:

Having sufficient amounts of the most important resources in Diablo 4 is not always easy. A player has now posted an overview and explained where and how you should farm best.
In Diablo 4, you need various resources, to improve your equipment, craft elixirs, and add sockets to jewelry. There are different ways to farm the resources, some of which you also collect incidentally while playing.
To farm certain, particularly important resources, a player suggests specific methods. This way, you should quickly acquire gold, bundles of herbs, scattered prisms, and other resources.
We summarize them for you.
Start video

How to farm the most important resources in Diablo 4
User ‘mathefff’ compiled the best farming methods for certain resources in Diablo 4 on May 30 on Reddit. These primarily relate to World Tier 4:
Gold: The tasks for the “Whispering Tree” are best suited here. At World Tier 4, you should receive around 3 million gold per chest that you get for 10 “Horrid Gifts”. For chaos chests, it is even 6 million gold, according to a comment, even up to 12 million gold in some cases.
Gem Fragments: To farm fragments, the post creator advises playing a character at level 90+. At this level, more fragments apparently drop. He recommends the “Varshan Area” but suggests farming the mobs that spawn on the way to the boss, not the boss itself. One user suggests in the comment the PvP area and the mobs and champions with a purple aura.
You will also find enemies with a purple aura in the Hell Flood.
Bundles of Herbs: According to “mathefff”, Legion Events are best suited to farm bundles of herbs. Since Season 4, there are no more drops of individual herb types, they are now bundled together and can be used for crafting elixirs, for example. For Angel’s Breath, various users recommend the Hell Floods. The chests there also contain the resource.
Heart of Corruption: If you want to farm Hearts of Corruption for the Blood Maiden’s ritual, according to “mathefff”, you should open as many chests in the Hell Flood as possible.
Scattered Prisms: With the latest Patch 1.4.1, the developers have revised the drops of the Scattered Prisms. This specifically means that treasure goblins drop Scattered Prisms more frequently, the Butcher and world bosses upon every kill. At World Tier 4, world bosses even drop 3 prisms.
Stygian Stones: For the Stygian Stones with which you summon the “Level 200” versions of bosses, he recommends creating additional characters and farming reputation with the Iron Wolves. This way, you will receive Stygian Stones and at the last level a “Majestic Spark”. With four sparks, you can craft your own Uber Unique.
Soon will be the perfect time if you want to create another character and farm reputation with the Iron Wolves again. Because Diablo 4 is celebrating its one-year anniversary and not only brings numerous treasure goblins into the game, but there is also an anniversary version of the “Mother’s Blessing.” The version of the blessing grants you gold, skins, and XP bonuses: Blizzard is celebrating the birthday of Diablo 4, giving you skins, and throwing plenty of treasure goblins into the game

In FC 24, a 13-year-old is currently shaking up the scene. For over four months, he has been winning game after gameand now has an impressive record to show for it.
Who is the 13-year-old? The young athlete is Robert Brysik, who is employed by the German eSports team “Fokus-Clan.” Fokus-Clan (here is the YouTube account) has been known to most gamers in Germany since the arrival of the famous influencer “eliasn97.”
At the beginning of the year, Robert was able to celebrate his first major title. He prevailed at a junior tournament organized by the eSports players from skgaming (here is their Twitch account) and secured first place. Since early February, Robert has been able to call himself a member of Fokus-Clan.
His upswing seems to show no signs of stopping in FC 24 either. With a strong record of countless unbeaten games in a row, the young man seems to dominate his opponents in FC 24 at will.

EA Sports FC 24: Update teaser for the UEFA Euro 2024
13-year-old Robert Brysik unbeaten in 260 games
In which game mode is he unbeaten for so long? Aside from the tournaments where eSports players compete against each other directly, the best players in FC 24 define themselves by their records in the competitive modes. With the Division Rivals and the Champions Finals, which are better known as Weekend League, there are two of them in Ultimate Team.
Robert’s impressive record of 260 consecutive wins refers to the games in the Weekend League. In the Weekend League, all qualified players have 20 matches available to secure as many wins as possible. With each won match, one can expect tougher opponents, as the matchmaking ideally adapts to the individual players’ records.
For Robert, it seems there is currently no opponent who can compete with him. 260 won matches mean he has been unbeaten for 13 weeks in perhaps the toughest mode in FC 24.
Could Robert even break a record? Despite the strong record, Robert is still a long way from the record for the most consecutive unbeaten games in the Weekend League.
The record is still held by the Dane Anders Vejrgang, who set this record at just 14 years old in FIFA 21. Meanwhile, Anders has also been part of a German eSports team for a while, namely that of RB Leipzig.
In FIFA 21, players still had 30 games available per Weekend League. If Robert wants to challenge Anders’ record in FC 24, he needs to put together at least one equally long streak again.
The genre of MMORPGs has fascinated and thrilled millions of players for decades. In a multi-part report, MeinMMO editor Karsten Scholz highlights the roots, development, and future of online role-playing games. Part 6 focuses on the current state and future of online role-playing games.
In the fifth part of the MMORPG report, it was about a rather difficult phase for all fans of online role-playing games, where the new releases mainly consisted of ports of Asian online RPGs, smaller crowdfunding projects, and mobile MMORPGs.
In the sixth and final part of the series, we dive into 2021 to analyze the past years as well as the current state of the genre and take a look at the future of MMORPGs. For those who missed an episode of the report during our MMORPG theme week, you will find it here:
After the launch of Wildstar in June 2014, it took more than seven years for a new, ambitious online role-playing game from a Western publisher and developer to appear. New World attracted players with an exciting setting, buy-to-play model, and great trailers.
At the same time, outsiders knew that development was difficult. The focus shifted due to tester feedback from survival and PvP to a theme park framework with quests, PvE challenges, and more story content. Skepticism was also warranted since Amazon Games had not published a single successful game up to that point.
As a result, New World was quite mixed at launch. While the audiovisual design of the game world excited and crafting and combat were enjoyable, the quests, which were designed in a very short time, were terribly generic. There were also numerous problems at launch, such as queues and gold duping exploits.
In October 2023, the first expansion for New World was released – here is the trailer:

New World: Rise of the Angry Earth – Trailer for the Expansion
The immense hype at launch (supported by Amazon’s streaming platform Twitch) clearly showed how great the demand was for a new, ambitious MMORPG. 913,634 players were simultaneously online in New World on Steam at times – which is still enough for 8th place on the all-time charts (via SteamDB).
Hype MMORPG from Asia
Even more hype was generated a year later by Lost Ark, which is also being managed by Amazon Games in the West but developed by the Korean developer Smilegate. The level of anticipation was quite unusual, as Asian MMORPGs often come with peculiarities that deter many Western players.
One might think of the quirky design of characters, clothing, and races, but also restrictions like classes that are gender-bound (gender lock), often a high grind factor, or the abundance of currencies that are supposed to obscure monetization.

Everything you need to know about the MMORPG Lost Ark – in 2 minutes
Lost Ark contains all of this. Additionally, the hero is controlled from an isometric perspective, resembling hack-and-slash titles like Diablo or Path of Exile. The fact that an incredibly large number of genre fans wanted to try the MMORPG from Smilegate was mainly due to the following reasons:
In 2014, there was a first, 19-minute long gameplay trailer for Lost Ark that overshadowed everything seen so far in isometric perspective games (via YouTube). Over the following years, there were always new gameplay presentations that only increased the anticipation.
Since 2019, Lost Ark has been playable in Korea and Russia. The reviews were positive, and the player numbers high. Various Western streamers had already played these versions with great enthusiasm, and it rubbed off on their communities.
Similar to New World, Amazon Games also used synergy with Twitch for Lost Ark to ignite the hype further.
Because New World could not meet high expectations, many genre fans were ready for the journey to Arkesia in February 2022.
As Lost Ark also launched in the West only on Steam, the hack-and-slash MMORPG can be easily compared to New World. The player peak at launch was significantly higher (1,325,305 simultaneous active players, 4th place on the all-time charts). In the weeks and months that followed, Lost Ark’s numbers also fell, but not as sharply and quickly as those of New World.
Instead of suffering from launch problems, lack of polish, and insufficient content supply, Lost Ark still struggles with a grindy endgame, where chance plays too large a role in character upgrades, as well as a flood of bots that cannot be controlled due to free-to-play access without severely inconveniencing normal players.
The enormously successful launch phases of New World and Lost Ark show that even now – about ten years after the peak of the genre – there is a large market for ambitious MMORPGs. At the same time, both titles demonstrate how difficult it remains to assert oneself alongside established genre giants and to attract players to the servers in the long term.
The genre remains a beast that is difficult to tame. Currently, various MMORPGs slated for release in 2024 or later are also struggling with issues:
Tarisland comes from Tencent, is set to be released for PC and mobile, and at first glance looks like a WoW clone – not optimal conditions for a successful launch in the West. There was also a pay-to-win shitstorm during the beta.
Even though the past two gaming years had few highlights for MMORPG fans and many of the upcoming projects are struggling with difficulties, you can look optimistically towards the future of the genre. It has been a long time since so many exciting titles have been in development.
Ashes of Creation is developing brilliantly, and the progress is noticeable:

With the “Ghost” project, the community of Greg “Ghostcrawler” Street and his team has been involved in the development from the start. Those hoping for sequels of well-known franchises should keep an eye on ArcheAge 2 (the big presentation is supposed to take place at Gamescom), Aion 2, the Warhammer MMORPG by Jack Emmert, and Guild Wars 3.
This large number of potential new releases collides with a whole range of MMORPGs that have been dividing the market for many years and continue to receive regular updates and paid content packages. The shadow of World of Warcraft is no longer as large and all-encompassing as it was 15 years ago.
Nevertheless, the Blizzard MMORPG remains a topic. Never before have there been so many different versions of WoW. Never have so many developers worked on World of Warcraft. In the coming years, we can expect the three-part World Soul saga and various Classic versions (Classic Era, Hardcore, new phases for the Season of Discovery, the patches from Cataclysm Classic).
The World Soul saga of WoW starts with the expansion The War Within this year:

You only have to wait a little longer for the new expansion for Final Fantasy XIV, Dawntrail, which will be released on July 2, 2024. As there are already queues at prime time on some servers, you should prepare for a turbulent launch.
Even though elements from online role-playing games and vast worlds can now be found in almost all service games and genres, MMORPGs still offer the foundation for a unique social gaming experience that cannot be found anywhere else in this form.
It is therefore nice to see that more and more publishers and developers from the West are willing to take the risk of developing an ambitious MMORPG again. And perhaps there is once again a game that will become THE topic of conversation on schoolyards, at work, and among friends.
A game that draws fans of the genre into a fascinating game world for months and years, where communities can build, and each guild and player can eventually make a name for themselves. A world where friendships and rivalries are formed. A community with which successes are celebrated together and defeats processed.
With daily farming rounds and nightly phone chains. With boozy in-game weddings and even boozier guild meetups in real life. A virtual sandbox that can create the most fascinating, demanding, emotionally moving, and memorable moments that the hobby of gaming has to offer. Even if part of the fascination has been lost over the years.

With “The Hunt for Gollum”, there will be a new “Lord of the Rings” movie. Aragorn actor Viggo Mortensen reveals whether he would return.
The “Lord of the Rings” saga will soon be enriched by another film. The Hunt for Gollum revolves around the story of Gollum. Peter Jackson is also back on board as producer.
Andy Serkis will once again embody Gollum and this time sit in the director’s chair. The screenplay is by Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens, who together with Jackson wrote the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit films.
It is possible that Aragorn (played by Viggo Mortensen) could also return, as he recently revealed in an interview.

Epic Trailer for The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship
Will he return as Aragorn in The Hunt for Gollum?
What does Mortensen say? Viggo Mortensen has indicated in an interview his willingness to once again step into the role of Aragorn, but only under certain conditions. He emphasizes that he would only accept the role if the story and his age allow it:
I don’t know the story exactly, I haven’t heard anything about it. Maybe I will find out sometime. I enjoy playing this character. I’ve learned a lot from it. I had a lot of fun. I would only do it if I were appropriate for it in terms of my age, etc. It would be silly to do it otherwise.
What’s the problem? Over 20 years have passed since the completion of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Viggo Mortensen was in his early 40s during the films – today he is 65 years old. This obviously poses a problem, even though he and presumably nearly all fans would wish for a return.
The Hunt for Gollum is supposed to take place roughly parallel to the beginning of The Fellowship – presumably between Bilbo’s birthday and Frodo’s departure for Rivendell.
Aragorn is a central figure in J.R.R. Tolkien’s “The Lord of the Rings”. He is originally introduced as a mysterious ranger from the north, known by many names, including: Strider and Estel. Only a few knew his true lineage.
In truth, he is the rightful heir to the throne of Gondor and a descendant of Isildur. Throughout the story, Aragorn proves to be a brave and wise leader. Viggo Mortensen’s portrayal has undoubtedly made him a fan favorite.
The big TOTS event in EA FC 24 is slowly coming to an end. But as a finale, we still have the Ultimate TOTS, which brings together the best TOTS cards from all leagues. We tell you which players are included here.
Update, May 31 at 7:00 PM: The Ultimate TOTS has just been released, and we now know which players are included. Here you can see the complete squad of the major leagues that will be available in packs for one week starting now:
And here you see the TOTS of the women’s leagues as well as the TOTS of the mixed leagues, led by Messi (97) and Ronaldo (96).
Here you can continue with the original post about the leaks for the Ultimate TOTS.
When does the Ultimate TOTS start? The ultimate TOTS squad will be released on Friday, May 31 at 7:00 PM in EA FC 24 Ultimate Team, concluding the multi-week TOTS event. It will end on June 7.
What is the Ultimate TOTS? The Ultimate TOTS is a final Team of the Season, where the strongest cards from the last weeks are compiled into a new, ultimate team. The team will be available in Ultimate Team for one week and consists of cards from the Premier League, the Bundesliga, LaLiga, the mixed teams, and other TOTS leagues.

Ultimate TOTS – First leaks promise an impressive team
These are the leaks: The well-known leaker Fut Sheriff has published a leak about the Ultimate TOTS on X that is really exciting. According to the leaker, all top stars are returning on Friday. Ronaldo (96), Kane (97), Messi (97), Mbappé (97), Haaland (97), Bellingham (97), and many more are expected to be included.

However, remain a bit skeptical about the leaks as always. Because even though FUT Sheriff has often been accurate, this is not official information. The final Ultimate TOTS could differ significantly.
This is how you get the new cards: The new and especially coveted cards of the Ultimate Team of the Season are not so easy to obtain. The safest method should be the Weekend League. If you perform well there, you will be rewarded with guaranteed TOTS cards, which are random.
Otherwise, you can hope for “pack luck” and open saved packs, or you can try your luck in a TOTS SBC (Squad Building Challenge). Guaranteed TOTS SBCs are released regularly. There, you submit a number of cards and receive a random TOTS player in return.

The League of Legends streamer Tyler1 announced his new company Backseat AI, which is supposed to help players improve in League of Legends. In a stream, he tested the bot and quickly got into an argument with it.
On May 29, Twitch streamer Tyler1 announced his new company Backseat AI through a post on X. With the help of this bot, players are supposed to have the opportunity to improve their skills in LoL by receiving advice from the AI in Tyler1’s voice during the game.
In his stream, he now tested his own bot and became quite desperate about it.
Start video
LoL – Hall of Legends: Faker Trailer
What kind of bot is this? Tyler1 has created an AI coach bot that is supposed to help players improve in League of Legends. According to Tyler1’s announcement, the AI was planned to assist the player right at the beginning of the round when choosing a champion.
Furthermore, the AI is supposed to automatically select runes and give players tips on which items to build during the game, along with many other features.
A dispute breaks out between his bot and Tyler1
Why is he getting frustrated with his bot? In a livestream, the streamer tests his AI and quickly becomes frustrated with it, even to the point of starting an argument.
As mentioned before, the AI gives tips on items for the round, including for Tyler1. However, these seemed to make no sense to the streamer, leading him to shout at his AI: It builds AD (=Attack Damage) and not AP (=Ability Power), do you understand that?
Reactions from the community: While Tyler1 is getting increasingly frustrated with himself as a coach, his community can hardly contain their laughter in the livestream on Twitch.
Many users are also commenting on a Reddit post regarding the clip. On one hand, they find it amusing; on the other hand, they think it illustrates how toxic some LoL players can be. Some users wrote in the Reddit thread:
flashtone writes on Reddit: If every LoL player had to play with an AI version of themselves, they might realize how toxic they are.
painXpress notes on Reddit: This AI seems like a scam. Many useless comments.
SeedFoundation comments on Reddit: I watched Quin69 use it and it was hilarious. Almost 50% of the time it told him to just let the jungler carry and that he should focus and die less.
MeinMMO editor Benedikt Schlotmann will soon use PS Plus Extra for 2 years on the PS5. However, he is sure that he will not renew the subscription.
What kind of models are those? In case you missed it: Sony has scrapped the old PS Plus model and introduced three new subscription models for PS Plus. These have been available since June 23, 2022. All three models offer different advantages and cost varying amounts.
I upgraded my “PS Plus” subscription from Essential to Extra about a month after the launch of the new models. At that time, during a promotion from Sony, it only cost around 20 euros. Since then, I have stayed with “Extra”, but now I am glad that I will cancel my subscription in July.
Start video

PS Plus Extra simply offers me too little as a long-time player on the PS5
Why am I cancelling now? Sony has significantly raised the price for PS Plus: I previously paid 99.99 euros per year for PS Plus Extra. Since September 6, 2023, I now have to pay 125.99 euros, which is a hefty 26 euros more than before. Just to compare the prices:
PlayStation Plus Essential costs 71.99 euros for 12 months (previously 59.99 euros).
PlayStation Plus Extra costs 125.99 euros for 12 months (previously 99.99 euros).
PlayStation Plus Premium costs 151.99 euros for 12 months (previously 119.99 euros).
After almost 2 years, I believe that Sony simply offers me too little with PlayStation Plus Extra. Similar to Xbox Game Pass, Extra also provides me access to about 400 PlayStation games, but these are mostly just old “classics.” As a long-time PlayStation player, I have already purchased or played most of the “classics” at some point.
Overall, Xbox Game Pass comes out ahead because I can try many new games without having to spend 70 euros upfront, such as Starfield or Forza Motorsport 8.
Unlike my colleague Niko, who raves about the new PS Plus subscription, I am also not a huge fan of Japanese or quirky games. I love the Persona series and (almost) all Ghibli films, but spending a hefty 125 euros a year for that is a bit too much for me.
With “quirky” games that are supposed to define Extra or Premium, you certainly won’t convince me to subscribe to something that now costs 26 euros more.
Will I stay with PS Plus? I will definitely cancel Extra, that is certain. I will certainly still use PS Plus for another 2 or 3 months, as the new addon for Elder Scrolls: Online “Gold Road” will be released soon. And I personally prefer the PS5 version over the PC version, even though I have to wait 2 weeks longer for the release than on PC. However, the update manager on PC is simply terrible, I much prefer my PS5 and the technology there.
In the future, I will certainly think multiple times about whether I will switch back to the Extra or Premium model.
Is the PS5 still worth it? The PS5 is now over 3 years old. But is it still worth buying a PS5 in 2024? MeinMMO discusses the pros and cons of Sony’s console and explains what you need to consider if you are thinking about a purchase: Is it even worth buying a PS5 in 2024?

On June 4th, Destiny 2 will launch The Final Shape. The final DLC is so massive that you should definitely install it in advance to be ready on time.
Destiny 2 is approaching a major conclusion with the expansion The Final Shape. This marks the end of the Light and Darkness saga that has captivated Destiny 2 players over the past years.
The story has evolved through various expansions and seasons, and now hopefully receives an epic finale.
But not only is this DLC huge in terms of content, but also in terms of the required storage space. We will show you how to start The Final Shape on time.
Here you can watch the launch trailer for The Final Shape:

The Final Shape: Everything about the preload
How do I prepare now? To prepare for the launch of The Final Shape, you should preload the game.
Bungie will conduct maintenance before the DLC release, but you will then have the opportunity to download the DLC in advance. This way, you can dive right into the action after maintenance without having to wait for the download.
When does the preload start? The Final Shape will officially launch on June 4, 2024. Maintenance will begin on June 3, 2024, at 6:00 PM and end on June 4, 2024, at 7:00 PM. As soon as Destiny 2 goes offline, the preload will be available on all platforms.
You will need a lot of storage space for The Final Shape
How big will The Final Shape be? It varies depending on which platform you play Destiny 2 on.
This is how much storage space you will need (rounded up):
Why does it need so much? The PC version on Steam and Epic Games requires this much because both the old and new versions of the game need to be downloaded. This means you will need a lot of storage space for now – but after the launch, the old version will be removed, and you will have more space again. Everything you need to know about the server downtime has been summarized for you by MeinMMO author Christos Tsogos: Server down for “The Final Shape” starts in a few days – All information and downtime

Here we present you the best talents in the positions of left back and left wing back in EA FC 24. Here you will find young and affordable full-backs with high potential.
Update, May 31 at 4:00 PM: EA has released a new database update, and we have adjusted the talents accordingly.
This is what talents bring in the EA FC 24 career mode: Strong talents are important for the success of a management career in EA FC 24. We show you young players who have a lot of potential and can steadily improve through training and good performances, potentially even becoming world stars.
Left backs have an important role within the team: They need to prevent goals and be particularly fast on the flanks to keep up with quick wingers. It is also their job to prepare attacks through quick counterattacks.
For this, it is important that they can handle the ball well and are strong in dribbling. However, left-backs who meet all these requirements are correspondingly expensive.
Therefore, we present you talents at left back and left wing back here, who have great potential and will get better over time.
If you buy the right talents, they can become absolute key players in the EA FC 24 career mode. However, keep the following in mind:
Potential is dynamic. It depends on your training and performance how much a player realizes their potential.
You can retrain players. For example, defensive midfielders can become offensive players if you believe they are better suited there.
The market value is not fixed. You can also try to convince your counterpart of a cheaper transfer.

A new survival game has been released on Steam with ASKA, where you establish your own Viking tribe and try to please the gods. Currently, there is a free demo available. MyMMO editor and survival expert Benedict Grothaus has played it and is thrilled, but the five hours offered are too little.
After I had a rough time on my last survival attempt and failed during the tutorial with the face-planted crash, I was a bit more cautious with ASKA. However, I quickly realized that the game is indeed quite relaxing.
Even though survival in ASKA requires quite a bit from you and death is supposed to be pretty harsh, building, exploring, and simply the environment are quite relaxing. At least until you pull the tail of the wrong wolf…
Start video
ASKA: Trailer for the Viking survival game on Steam
Survival between Valheim and Bellwright
At its core, ASKA is a down-to-earth survival game. You start with nothing, have to gather stones and sticks, create a first campfire, a shelter, and craft tools. There is even character creation where you can choose between Aska (female) and Ragnar (male), each with various strengths and weaknesses in combat and exploration.
From here, it gets particularly interesting. Right after the first buildings, the “Eye of Odin” becomes the most important step in the game. With this building, you can attract villagers, which sets ASKA apart from classic survival games.
You can simply use tribe members as construction workers or assign them to buildings – such as a lumberjack lodge, a gathering hut, a hunting cabin, or even a workshop or kitchen:
Each villager has special strengths. Some are good fishermen, others are strong lumberjacks.
However, everyone also has their weaknesses. Those who chop a lot of wood eat more. Some may be nocturnal and prefer to sleep during the day.
That’s why you not only assign who works where, but also when people can take breaks or sleep.
If you do not pay attention to their needs, the tribe members will leave.
Yes, there are funny mushrooms too.The character creation is rudimentary but sufficient.The Chief’s House – My House!Ouch! A splinter!Skills can be increased through use.This is what the building system looks like.It’s slowly coming together!
Thus, ASKA is similar to the new Bellwright, which looks a bit like a new Mount & Blade, just without the army aspect. Your villagers gather and craft, they also defend the village, but they are not a fighting force.
A life to please the gods
The game has a certain guideline. The first steps are explained by some will-o’-the-wisps with a tutorial. Written tips assist with all buildings – and they become annoying eventually if you don’t disable them.
What I particularly liked is the “favor” of the Norse gods. Various notable figures like Skadi, Odin, Mimir, and Thor demand from you what belongs to their domains: survival, combat, wisdom.
There is a message when you please the gods.An overview of the gods and their tasks.
While there are no rewards for this, a look at the gods’ page helps find new goals when you’re stuck. Over time, you learn new mechanics, such as:
Do not build production facilities next to residential areas, as this reduces comfort and thus the bonuses you and NPCs receive when resting – similar to city-building simulations.
Villagers can only work with the right tools, which must be provided somehow by another tribe member.
Areas for gathering resources should be strategically marked so that production does not run to waste.
Events occur frequently, such as a rabbit plague or the blood moon, during which monsters attack the village. This can be quite tough at the beginning when undead appear, but the right challenges await in the open world.
And suddenly Fenris himself stands there
After about two hours, I figured out whom I could best assign to which tasks and what I should do in the meantime.
After I laid out the blueprint for a building, my people take care of the construction while I go gather the missing resources or farm what we currently need – usually materials for more villagers. These can be found in special deposits.
Once the village was finally running somewhat smoothly, I ventured further into the forest. From a building there, wolves kept appearing and bothering my hunter. I wanted to go teach them a lesson.
Actually, a good idea, if it weren’t for my curiosity.
Clearing out a bunch here.Clearing out a bunch… oh, what is that?Something is happening!What is happening there?!Puppy.
The majority of opponents might be a bit dangerous at the beginning, but rarely deadly, if you familiarize yourself with the combat system a bit. It gets really ugly when suddenly the wolf appears in front of you, who is supposed to signify the end of the world.
After I destroyed two inconspicuous “things” at the wolf’s den, a ghost wolf appeared in the air. Within seconds, it transformed into Fenris or Fenrir himself, the wolf who in Norse mythology bites off the hand of the god Tyr and initiates Ragnarök.
Three times I tried to skin him. Three times he showed me that I wasn’t good enough for that. Although I never died, I really owe that more to luck than skill:

5 hours are simply not enough for the demo
At some point, however, the demo came to an unfortunate end. Just as I was peacefully lying in bed to recover from the tough battle against Fenris – and for some reason being stared at by my villagers – the camera zoomed out and showed my village along with my achievements.
I had hoped that I could simply continue playing as long as I didn’t log out. Because the five demo hours are by no means enough for the game.
Not only because it is so good.
This is what my village looked like at the end.My village from above.An overview shows how well I did.
Yes, ASKA is really fun. I would have liked to play longer and see what the game has to offer, recruit more villagers, and build a real little town. However, many contents were not available during the demo; the game was marked with a red warning. So seeing everything would not even be possible.
What I therefore don’t know is whether ASKA will gain much more depth or not. I didn’t get far in my exploration, and I also don’t know what the “endgame” and the story look like.
Valheim has an end, and the epic journey to it is the goal. I assume that ASKA is pursuing something similar, although there are not supposed to be bosses hidden behind which progress is hidden.
Still, I can recommend the demo to everyone at least. You can still play for free until June 3, and again at the Steam Next Fest from June 10 to 17. The early access release of ASKA is scheduled for June 20. A release on PlayStation or Xbox is not currently planned. I will definitely continue playing at release. Let’s see if ASKA makes it onto the list of the best survival games.
