  1. At the time of writing, Season 1 of Marvel Rivals is ongoing with 37 heroes in total. However, some fans believe that the playstyles of certain Marvel characters are not exactly lore-accurate. Wolverine, Magneto, and ****** Widow are some of the names that have caught the most attention among the community, as discussed in this post on X. Wolverine tops the list, with several players claiming his "Auto Regen should be quicker." Several other fans agreed with the statement and chimed in their own thoughts, with one player echoing, "He should auto-regen and very quickly too." In the comics, the mutant heals at an accelerated rate, which means his damaged cells and tissues get repaired in just a few seconds, and it gives him an edge in any sort of fight. Another player added that Wolverine could have a "tracking/wall climbing" ability as his Adamantium claws could allow that. [Hidden Content] Moving on to Magneto, one player thinks he's a "good character," but when it comes to executing his in-game abilities, it's been "horrible." Another chimed in, "Magneto should be able to at least hover to some degree," just like he does in the comics and movies. "Magneto ultimate should let him lift enemies and slam them," said another. On the other hand, one player feels that "****** Widow suffered THE MOST." "Her kit sucks cause all she has is a sniper, batons, and a kick. Home girl is trained to hold any kind of weapon, and all she got was a sniper." "****** Widow needs immediate rework," echoed another. Some other notable mentions from the hero pool include Adam Warlock, Spider-Man, Hela, and the Hulk. Among all the claims, a particular player said, "Every character is damn near perfect. They focused more on the original content (comics) than the movies. They just need to keep going all out." "The lore changes every time a new fad comes around. All the characters are flawed but still fun to play. The constant tweaking and new characters are great," said another. At the time of writing, it's difficult to say whether NetEase Games will bring all the requested changes to the characters mentioned above. Nevertheless, Marvel Rivals is a fun game to play, and with the arrival of the new limited-time Clone Rumble game mode, it'll get even more chaotic.

  2. Death Stranding 2: On The Beach officially releases on June 26, exclusively for PlayStation 5. Now that we’ve finally seen more of Hideo Kojima’s second Death Stranding title, we also know that, for now, it will remain a PlayStation exclusive. Just like the original Death Stranding, which launched on November 8, 2019 and only came to PC on July 14, 2020, Death Stranding 2 will be locked to PS5 for the foreseeable future. Death Stranding 2 is not releasing on PC—at least not yet There is no confirmed PC release date for Death Stranding 2, meaning the game won’t be available on any platform outside PlayStation when it launched on June 26. Whether it’s Steam, the Epic Games Store, or a standalone release, there’s currently no sign of a PC version. [Hidden Content] The reason for this could be Kojima Productions’ partnership with Sony, which initially made Death Stranding a PlayStation exclusive. Given how well Kojima’s games perform, it’s likely that the partnership was successful, leading to a renewed deal for Death Stranding 2. However, neither Sony nor Kojima Productions have officially confirmed whether this exclusivity is due to a contract or simply a studio decision to focus on PS5 first. Destructoid has reached out to Kojima Productions for comment. The original Death Stranding took about 8 months to make the jump from PlayStation to PC. Based on that timeline, if Death Stranding 2 does eventually release on PC—which is not guaranteed—it wouldn’t be expected until at least February 2026. At least until then, and possibly until way later or even forever, only PS5 players will have access to Death Stranding 2. Death Stranding 2 being a PS5 exclusive could drive console sales There’s no specific reason why Death Stranding 2 wouldn’t come to PC, especially as a game from Hideo Kojima. In most cases, exclusivity comes down to contracts that provide benefits for both the studio and the platform. If Sony has secured exclusivity, it means they see Death Stranding 2 as a hardware seller—if enough players want to play the game, they may be more likely to buy a PS5. This could be a strategic move for Sony, especially as the PS5 generation nears its later years. The release of the PS5 Pro last year also plays a role—some existing PS5 owners may upgrade to the Pro model to get better performance or enhanced visuals for Death Stranding 2. In short, keeping Death Stranding 2 exclusive to PS5, even if only for a limited time, could help boost console sales for Sony. Death Stranding 2's pre-orders for its multiple editions are already live. The post Death Stranding 2 won’t release on PC at first, and the reason isn’t surprising appeared first on Destructoid.

  3. Inventory management is crucial for any adventure, and it’s a task that might be best suited to a sentient backpack. There aren’t many games that offer such an essential ally, but the newly revealed Rootbound looks to provide a beautifully realized take on the concept. Rootbound comes from a ******* studio called Brainlag Games, which was established in 2024 and has former devs from Piranha Bytes among its roster. As the trailer notes, the minds behind this one previously worked on games like Gothic, Risen, and Flex. If the first look is any indication, they have something special in the works in this stylish physics-based outing. [Hidden Content] The environmental aesthetics alone remind me of a mix between A Short Hike and Tunic, with a dash of Death’s Door sprinkled in for good measure. The setting is fittingly bleak, as our plantling hero ventures forth to uncover the secrets behind the island of Akara and a civilization long since forgotten. As for that backpack, its mighty tongue wagging from its pouch, it does more than just hold your items and equipment. It serves as a silent companion and can toss you the items you need as long as it’s in the mood. With sentience comes risk, though, as enemies can notice the backpack and focus their attacks on it. All the while, a blight runs amok throughout the land, spreading its misery through rain that you’ll need to avoid. Torches and campfires provide a brief reprieve, and it all looks like it could swirl together to create a unique mood. Rootbound is currently planned for a 2026 launch on PC via Steam.

  4. Phasmophobia has gone through many changes since it was released back in 2020. While the core gameplay elements are still there, Kinetic Games has stayed true to what made its ghost-hunting title such a hit in the indie horror scene. As of right now, update 0.12.0.1 has started to roll out, which not only brings a few tweaks to the game but also introduces the first of two major reworks for some of Phasmo's legacy maps. In this case, we get a brand-new version of Bleasdale Farmhouse, the rickety abode that has us investigating spirits in the spooky countryside. So, being a long-time fan of the game, I've been excited to check out the new update. With that, I thought I'd do an overview of what's changed in Bleasdale. You can check out the patch notes, but for your delectation, here's a quick guide to the revamped map. Something old, something new Screenshot via Destructoid Phasmophobia's Bleasdale Farmhouse location is well known for its old wooden aesthetic. However, before you even enter the map, you'll immediately notice the difference. For starters, the outside has been given something of a modern facelift. It's still all for the wood theme, but with some new panels and a lick of white paint, that rickety look has been given the old heave-ho. This is, without question, a veritable overhaul of the entire location, not just a few simple changes. This continues once we go inside and are greeted by the entryway. Again, there'll be something familiar about it, but it's changed just enough to give you pause for thought. The general layout is still intact, with the large living space in the room beyond and the L-shaped stairs to the right, but the under-the-stairs nook is now a cupboard door and the office to the left is now a sitting room that loops around to the other parts of the house, including a storage area. Screenshot via Destructoid Are you getting manor vibes from this? Because I certainly am. We've definitely shifted away from the more rustic vision of Bleasdale Farmhouse, with something that suggests the family that lives here has come into a considerable sum of money recently. The piano in the living room is still there, though it's been moved to the other side, while also being upgraded to something more grand, rather than the more "plinky-plonky" tavern-style piano of the old farmhouse. The downstairs overall feels like it's been revamped in a way that suggests freshness, but still hints at the map that was here before. For example: the kitchen and dining area are in the same place, except they're now separate rooms (albeit still side-by-side). It feels like it's been closed off, perhaps suggesting an air of privacy for whoever's cooking the meals. Screenshot via Destructoid The upstairs has also seen some major reworks. The first thing I noticed was the bathroom at the top of the stairs, or lack thereof. While it's not actually gone, it's now accessible via the master bedroom a bit further down the hall. This room, too, has changed significantly. While maintaining its size, it's been divided into two sections. One side houses an impressive four-poster bed, while the other has a modest screen and a tailor's mannequinn ******, because that inspires confidence in any ghost hunter who's slightly on edge. The bathroom is off to the right, next to a massive walk-in closet. Nothing says affluence like racks of suits in a room the size of a double garage. Then there's the trophy room. Yes, a trophy room. Taking the place of the utility area, there's now a space for the occupants of Bleasdale Farmhouse to display trinkets befitting a neocolonial warlord. Screenshot via Destructoid But hark! Where are the stairs to the attic? In the old house, they were at the end of the corridor, just before one of the bedrooms (which is now a fancy office). Despair not, however. They are still there, but they've been moved further along, behind its own door. The stairs themselves now look like less of a trip hazard and take us up into the brand-new attic space. If you remember the attic from before, you'll know that it was quite an intimidating area. Its sheer size always induced an acceptable degree of dread as players would collectively hope that the ghost wasn't in this room. Now, while it still counts for a large chunk of the upstairs region, Kinetic Games has added a lot more clutter to soak up some of that size. It's still a big room, but it feels less so now that it's occupied by more stuff. Additionally, there's a spare bed in a side room, which has been separated by a beaded curtain. Screenshot via Destructoid Those are some of the major changes to Bleasdale Farmhouse. Honestly, there's a lot more that can be said about what the developer has reworked, but it definitely feels like something that would benefit from a walkthrough yourself. At any rate, it's an impressive revamp of one of the game's legacy maps. Thanks to the recent Phasmophobia roadmap, we do know that Grafton Farmhouse will be getting similar treatment at some point, along with a new small map. Until then, I'll be looking at this weird occult table and trying to work out what it does...

  5. A new rumor has revealed the specs for several new Nvidia graphics cards, including the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060, expected to be among the next of the latest series of Nvidia graphics cards to launch. Purported specs for both the RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti, along with the entry-level RTX 5050, have just been leaked X. These new Nvidia gaming GPUs won't be the best graphics card chips out there for performance, focusing largely on the budget end of the market. They're going to face tough competition too, in the face of AMD's new cards like the AMD Radeon RX 9070, which has launched with a very competitive $549 price tag. Read the rest of the story...

  11. The Nightflower Pollen farm was a lifeline for Monster Hunter Wilds' grueling endgame grind, giving players a better shot at Gold Relic Ticket trades for Decorations and Relics. It made the grind a little less tedious—until the latest patch wiped out this once-reliable exploit. Ever since the Hotfix Patch Ver.1.000.05.00 went out, players have noticed that the Nightflower Pollens aren't showing up as much despite using missions with the Full Moon requirement. I tried it out myself with quests like the Balahara's 'A Leviathan's Rage,' and the Nightflower Pollen never showed up. Screenshot by Destructoid Although the new update's patch notes don't explicitly indicate a pollen farm nerf, one fix may hint at its implementation. In the addressed issues section, you'll see the statement: "Some items/rewards can be obtained repeatedly under certain conditions," indicating that the team has gotten rid of this exploit. Gathering Nightflower Pollen during its elusive Full Moon phase just got a whole lot tougher. While some players mourn the farm's loss on Twitter/X, others argue it's a blessing in disguise. After all, it'll restore the endgame to its true nature—brutal, relentless grinding. However, there may still be a way to access the Nightflower Pollen exploit, including with the SOS Flare Quest's The Desert Knows Not the Sea. Things can be a bit finicky, though, so it still may not work for some. Other than the pollen farm nerf, Monster Hunter Wilds' March 10th patch addresses different issues, from a Chapter 5-2 progression solution to an unlock for Azuz and Sild Meal Invitations. There are also a few more updates on the way for known problems with side missions, Palicos, and Hunter Profiles. We still await the two primary fixes regarding the game's performance and corrupted saves. Hopefully, it'll come before Title Update 1, which is set for an early April release. Maybe by then, there will be another exploit for the Nightflower Pollen farming unless it, of course, gets patched again.

  12. Before [LIGHT AND DARK], you had to collect Accessories to power up your character. After this latest update, it’s all about Gears. Despite the new system being simple, it takes some time to get used to. That’s why I created the ultimate Arcane Lineage Gears tier list, equipped with info on how to get them and why you should farm them. Table of contentsAll Arcane Lineage Gears RankedS-Tier Arcane Lineage GearsA-Tier Arcane Lineage GearsB-Tier Arcane Lineage GearsC-Tier Arcane Lineage GearsD-Tier Arcane Lineage GearsAll Arcane Lineage Gears Ranked Image by Destructoid In the Arcane Lineage Gear tier list above, you can see what you should focus on. Obviously, the emphasis is on the S Tier, with Dragon Memoir and Narthana’s Leaf leading the charge. I’d also wouldn’t scoff at A Tier Gears, but below there is true no man’s land. Nevertheless, this is still a subjective list and I still believe every Gear is good if you can find the right build for it. That’s why you should first go through our Arcane Lineage class tier list to prep accordingly. So let’s see what’s all the fuss about and how to get all the gears in Arcane Lineage. S-Tier Arcane Lineage Gears Screenshot by Destructoid While there aren’t too many, these are the Gears you should be focusing on. They’re far and away the best Arcane Lineage Gears and work well with almost every build you can imagine. NameStatsRanking ExplanationHow to GetDragon MemoirYour first strike inflicts 2 turns of Bleed and 1 stack of Fractured. Every other strike adds another stack of Fractured.Far and away the best and most versatile entry on this Arcane Lineage tier list. Any Physical build should prioritize this Gear, especially Impalers and Blade Dancers. Can be acquired after completing the Bone Quest, where you have to talk to an NPC in the Volcano area and find brightly colored bone fragments. 7-Leaf EverthistleIncreases drop rate and gold acquisition by 1.85xThe quintessential farming item, you should get it no matter your class. That 1.85x buff does wonders for all drops and gold, consequently accelerating leveling. Spawns in place of normal everthistles, but you'll need the Gathered Passive to get it. Narthana’s LeafLose 25% of your max HP and increase outgoing healing by 1.75x.Indispensable to any healer build. If you're rolling a Saint, prioritize snatching this Gear. Obtained from the red-haired NPC in Deeproot depths. Spiked Steel BallGrants a chance to deal 5% of the attack's total damage and apply 1 Vulnerable and 1 Weakness.Initially focused on multi-hits, this particular Gear can buff your single-hit damage, too. Any DPS build should aim for either this or Dragon Memoir. Drops from Desert Bandits. A-Tier Arcane Lineage Gears Screenshot by Destructoid Now, I wouldn’t devote too much of my time grinding for these A-tier Arcane Lineage Gears. However, they aren’t to be disregarded. Each Gard in the table below is good for a niche use, a particular zone or a specific need. NameStatsRanking ExplanationHow to GetImperial HeadbandWhen your summons drop below 25% HP, you can detonate them, dealing damage to all targets with a chance to apply Stunned and Weakened for 2 turns.Essential to any summoner, Imperial Headband allows you to scale your summons' damage. Would recommend to any Necromancer main. Lava Crabs drop it. Parasitic LeachYour teammates recover 2% of the damage you deal.If you're running a 5-stack of DPS characters and everyone (or at least 4/5) has this Gear, you can effectively burn through any boss without needing a healer. Seraphon is particularly easy with this setup. Random drop from Forest mobs. Vainglorious LocketWhile equipped, you always act first and start each battle with a 30% damage boost that gradually decreases over time.Gives you an additional 30% damage buff that decreases as the encounter goes on. Not the best entry on our Arcane Lineage Gear tier list, but is essential for early and mid-game farming. Metroms Vessel drops it. Ever-Beating DrumsQuest to receive them is not yet in the game. Not yet added to the game, but it's expected to be yet another farming build Gear, with a focus on easier bosses and known farming zones (especially in the Desert). The quest to receive them is not yet in the game. Cursed BrandSummons gain a skill that removes your status effects (buffs and debuffs), deals damage to them, and grants a 5% damage boost per removed stack.Might be hard to make use of properly. Gives your summons your stats effects, which can lead to some fun boosts if you're playing a build that relies on them. I docked it some points because it simply isn't all that versatile. Drops from random Deeproot mobs. Traveler’s LampStart each fight with 1 extra energy and inflict 3 Vulnerable on all enemies. Provides light outside of battle.With its application of Vulnerable and the energy boost, it's +2 effect is definitely usable before the endgame comes. I'd say I held onto it for too long and it still served me well. Drops from Cursed Corpses (Deeproot). Sanguine FangWhen hitting an enemy, there is a 25% chance to heal for 10% of the attack's damage.Had fun using this on my healer, so if you're running a Saint, this is definitely one to consider. Cess Horrors drop it (Deeproot). Tear Blood CrystalWhenever you apply Bleed, gain a 5% increase in defense and crit chance for 5 turns.I've been able to solo Seraphon with my Impaler using this gear, and I hear even Blade Dancers will find it useful. The defense and crit boosts will serve any glass cannon build amazingly. Drops from the Impaler mini-boss. Golem Rune CoreTeaches you to summon a Sand Golem. One of my favorite Gears, but only useful to Summoners and can get less powerful if you get deeper into late-game content. Drops from Sand Golem.Coagulated FingernailAt the start of each turn, your base stats increase by 2.5 points.A unique case on our Arcane Lineage Gears tier list, this one is only good against bosses, but is it really something to complain about? Spare a slot and have fun with it. Cursed Corpses (Deeproot) drop it. Tainted QuiverYour first attack always applies Sundered, and subsequent attacks have a chance to drain the opponent's energy.Mainly improves your initial strike, but I have a feeling we're going to see a build or two that proves how truly busted it can be. Drops from Thorian. Embuement ReliquaryYour summons now inherit the effect of your current enchant.Imperial Headband at home, basically. Gives your summons your enchants, but sounds much better in theory than in practice. Drops from Seraphon. Stone BrandYour summons learn Stone Skin, granting 60% damage reduction against most attacks.With its application of Vulnerable and the energy boost, its +2 effect is definitely usable before the endgame comes. I'd say I held onto it for too long and it still served me well. Drops from Sand Golems (Desert only). B-Tier Arcane Lineage Gears Screenshot by Destructoid Unfortunately, most of the entries on our Arcane Lineage Gears tier list are just mid. Most of them are just fit for a class or two, while some are plain unremarkable or have better alternatives. Don’t shoot the messenger, though. NameStatsRanking ExplanationHow to GetCrystal SphereRemoves Crit Fatigue and increases Crit Chance by 5%. Crit Fatigue gradually reduces crit chance after landing a critical hit, stacking until an attack doesn't crit, which resets the chance to normal.This focus on crit is too RNG to be considered busted, or even feasible in the long-term. Most of the time, it equates to just being mid. Drops from Sand Elementals in the Desert. Shard of BlightGain a 15% defense boost and a 25% increase in dark elemental damage.Since it only boosts Dark Elemental damage, I would only recommend it to Berserker players. Venom Shrooms and Sentinel Darkness Units drop it (Deeproot). Expedite AnkletGrants access to the "Godspeed" skill, significantly boosting speed scaling, providing a chance to gain energy when dodging, and preventing block decay while active. Also increases movement speed outside of battle.Might be useful if you're running a speed-focused Thief, but other than that, it suffers from chronic midness. Drops from Fog Spirits (Deeproot). Band of Crushing ForceDeal 25% more damage against blocking opponents and gain 15% defense while in the Desert.I had fun with it while cruising through Desert, but its focus on block and defense makes it unusable once you progress further. Drops from Sand Golems (Desert). Aspect of MaladaptationGrants immunity to Fire stacks and heals for half the damage a Fire stack would have inflicted.Used to give you a straight-up damage buff before, but the devs nerfed it, so it's just mid now. Drops from Thorian. Forest CharmYou gain a 15% damage boost while in the forest and a 25% increase to all nature-elemental attacksRun it in the Forest if you've rolled a Ranger, otherwise it's pretty useless and unremarkable. Random drop from Forest mobs. Drop chance and mob list unknown. Grain of BalanceReduce your highest invested stat by 25% and evenly distribute the amount across all other stats.If you read its effect at first, you'd think all your stats become equal to your max stat. In reality, your max stat value is divided by the number of your other stats and distributed evenly. Yay, I guess? Stray Sandstorm or Desert Bandit drop it, and both are in the Desert. Yar’thul’s WrathEvery 5 turns, gain a stack of Overheat, increasing damage by 8% and speed by 7.5%. Lose a stack of Overheat when hit by someone other than yourself.The boost to your damage and speed is S-tier, but the fact it can only be required by playing solo is D-tier. B-tier seems fair enough, right? Drops from Yar'thul. Blazing PerforatorGrants immunity to Fire stacks and heals for half the damage a Fire stack would have inflicted.It's not the worst option for farming, but it's a limited Gear and doesn't deserve a higher spot on this Arcane Lineage tier list. Drops from Yar'thul. Ramizcan IdolGain a 10% damage boost for one turn when blocking or parrying an attack.Paladin and Brawler players might rejoice, but I don't see the point in any class trying it out. Overall mid. Stray Sandstorms drop it (Desert). Shattered Clock HandWhen using Strike, there's a 30% chance to reduce the cooldown of all your moves by 1 turn.Shattered Mid Hand more like it. Jokes aside, the 30% chance of getting an extra term is SO INFURIATING. Why? Well, it's good enough that it's noticeable, but not good enough to make a build around it. Thanks, I hate it. Defeat the Thief found in the Forest to obtain it. Vulcan KnuckleGain a 15% boost to fire-elemental moves, a 15% defense increase while in the Volcano, and convert Strike's elemental typing to fire.Not a bad mix with Dragon Memoir, and I would say it can be good for Blade Dancer v Thorian, but otherwise, it's more decent than it initially appears. Lava Golems drop it (Volcano; drop chance unknown). Blazing BrandWhen enemies attack your summons, they take minor damage and gain 3 stacks of Fire.Due to the recent DoT nerf, now it has another flaw other than being usable only by Summoners. Such an unfortunate victim of reckless updating. Presumably dropped by Lava Golems (Volcano). Lethal BlackjackApplies a random buff or debuff to the user, with a small chance to remove 99% of your HP when used.Can have an S-tier effect or it can kill you, so I'd say this placement is perfectly fair. Received after winning against any Dealer/Gambler NPC. C-Tier Arcane Lineage Gears Screenshot by Destructoid Unless someone paid me, I wouldn’t venture into this part of the Arcane Lineage Gears tier list. Each of these entries has one or more glaring flaws, with some not even making sense in the slightest. The devs got to troll too, I guess. NameStatsRanking ExplanationHow to GetDust Storm10% chance to phase through an attack. The dodge chance isn't big enough to be noticeable. Good idea, bad execution on this Gear. Drops from Sand Elementals (Desert). Molten CarapaceIncreases defense by 30% when below 40% HP.Might be useful for tankier builds, but the increased Defense when you're low could be implemented much better in different forms (higher HP regeneration, better blocking, etc.)Lava Golems drop it (Volcano). Spore RootWhen you block or parry a physical attack, inflict 2 Poison and have a 30% chance to apply 2 Weakened.Brawlers and Paladins might find it useful, but I'm not too pleased with the fact it only applies Vulnerable and Poison. Obtained from Zombie Mushrooms located in the Forest. Arbusta TearGives you Arbusta Fragrance, which has a 7T cooldown and lasts 4T. Increases the aggravation for 4T. Unless you're a Paladin player, carry on. Literally useless to anyone and everyone else. Random drop from Forest mobs. Drop chance and full list of mobs are still unknown. Magma CharmGain 10% resistance to fire attacks and a 15% increase in movement speed.Once again, if you're not playing a Thief, the speed buff is so minimal you'll barely feel it. Dropped by random mobs in Volcano. D-Tier Arcane Lineage Gears Screenshot by Destructoid Last and most certainly least, I’m not even sure why you’d want to know how to get Arcane Lineage gears in this tier, but here goes. Just don’t say I didn’t warn you. NameStatsRanking ExplanationHow to GetWicked CrownWhen worn, grants immunity to poison and reduces all DoT damage by 15%. There's a hidden passive, too, and converts all physical skills to dark-element damage.The Poison immunity is okay, but the DoT increase is literally useless, making this one of the worst entries on our Arcane Lineage Gear tier list. Found after defeating Cursed Corpses (Deeproot). Biggest PebbleThrowing this rock in battle boosts your escape chance by 300%.Why would you need an increased Escape chance? Unless you're below level 10, there's no point in dodging encounters. Absolute meme item. If you have this Gear, you're trolling. Random drop from Forest mobs. Drop chance and mob list unknown. Sheesh, that was a doozie, but we’ve finally reached the end of our ultimate Arcane Lineage Gears tier list. If you pick the right Gear, you’ll not only level up and win encounters faster, but you’ll also unlock all theView the full article For verified travel tips and real support, visit: [Hidden Content]
