Hello there, Destiny 2 people. Bungie's just dropped a huge update on its plans for the game's much-hyped next big expansion, the Final Shape, and there's a lot of stuff to unpack. For example, there's a new sublclass, Prismatic, which looks like it'll basically let you revamp how all of the game's existing classes play, as well as, er, achieve the enlightement required to lob some new grenades. Given the news that came out about Bungie late last year and the delay Destiny 2’s The Final Shape was hit with as part of all of that, it's fair to say the expansion's got a fair amount riding on it. So, what's the plan? Well, casually letting you achieve "Transcendence" for one. If you missed the big gameplay preview coving both stuff that'll be included in The Final Shape and the two month-long Into the Light update that kicked off in the game yesterday, arguably the biggest highight was the former's Prismatic subclass. What is it? Well, as Bugie desribes it: "For the first time, Guardians who harness Prismatic will be able to mix and match Arc, Solar, Void, Stasis, and Strand—combining them to unlock new potential in power and customization."

The Witcher has moved far beyond its core collection of books and games, with a Netflix show, official manga, tabletop game, and even a cookbook all on offer, but now it's even showing up in language learning app Duolingo. Spotted by Reddit user GeraltAndYennefer, one of the questions in Duolingo's Finnish course asks for a translation of the phrase: The bride is a woman and the groom is a hedgehog. "Is this a Witcher reference?", the Reddit user asked. IGN has confirmed with Duolingo that this is indeed a deep cut nod to the beloved fantasy series, specifically to the short story A Question of Price, which was adapted for TV in Season 1 Episode 4 of the Netflix series. The Witcher protagonist Geralt of Rivia attends a banquet hosted by Queen Calanthe of Cintra in the story, who's likely more familiar to fans as Ciri's grandmother. Ciri isn't born at this point though, as the story actually tells the tale of her parents' betrothal. Myriad suitors have travelled to Cintra to try and win the hand of Princess Pavetta, Ciri's mother, but through a complex series of events, it's a masked knight called Duny who Pavetta chooses. Duny is exposed to be cursed, however, which essentially turns him into a hedgehog monster at night. But Geralt saves the day and the princess and the hedgehog become engaged, thus the Duolingo reference. "Duolingo is somewhat notorious for odd and funny sentences in our courses, but there's real learning value behind them," a Duolingo spokesperson told IGN. "And at times we've deliberately inserted anime, gaming, or other pop culture references into our content, to help connect language learning with people's passions and interests." This includes adding the entire High Valyrian language from Game of Thrones to their app, alongside a Crunchyroll partnership which offers anime specific ********* lessons. The Witcher is plenty busy too, of course. Video game developer CD Projekt Red has several projects in development including the first game of a new trilogy, a multiplayer game with a wider appeal than the typical role playing games, and a remake of the original Witcher in Unreal Engine 5. Season 4 of the Netflix show is due to begin production in spring 2024 too, though without its leading man as Henry Cavill walked away from the series. Liam Hemsworth will instead take on the Geralt of Rivia role as the witcher looks to reunite his family but makes a new one along the way. Elsewhere, a new book from original author Andrzej Sapkowski is expected in early 2025, another board game based on The Witcher called Path of Destiny is in development, and Netflix is creating a new anime film with Geralt's video game voice actor Doug Cockle at the helm. Ryan Dinsdale is an IGN freelance reporter. He'll talk about The Witcher all day. View the full article

Given how many characters one can meet in Stardew Valley, those who might struggle to make friends will want to check out a new mod that makes the process easier but no less rewarding. While it may not appear like it at first glance, ConcernedApe's farming RPG has some exceptional story moments that go a long way to grounding players within Pelican Town, bringing villages' denizens to life. These "Heart Events" take plenty of time and effort to see and only occur once in a playthrough, so players need to be confident in their responses. View the full article

World of Warcraft Classic Season of Discovery phase three dropped on April 4, and players are slowly getting into the Sunken Temple raid. Raid compositions are crucial, especially this early in the patch. One faction has the upper hand when clearing Sunken Temple, and it’s because of a SoD ability. More and more players have been complaining on WoW’s subreddit about Shamanistic Rage, a Shaman ability that reduces damage taken and refunds mana to them and their raid. What makes Shamanistic Rage so amazing is that, unlike other abilities in WoW Classic, it applies to all your raid members and not only players in your party. While the Shaman gets the full effect from this ability, others get 20 percent of their mana this player got from this source. View the full article

As we all know, the main reason you go to war - in real life or in Helldivers 2 - isn't because you actually believe in the cause, it's because you're hoping to bag a nice medal and a pat on the head from some commander after watching your mates ****. Thankfully, due to some recent issues with medals in Arrowhead's online shooter, it looks like the entire system that brings such rewards to you will be getting an overhaul soon. If you're out of the loop, when it's come to folks actually getting the medals they've earned by fighting valiantly in major orders and not just goofing around having snowball fights, there's sometimes been a bit of a delay in that actually happening. The game's developers, though, look to have a plan to sort it permanently. Taking to the game's official Discord server, community manager Twinbeard provided an update for those still yet to recieve some of their spoils from recent campaigns. "Medals for two of the latest three major orders have now been shipped," the write, adding that the last batches should drop some time today, April 10. Read more View the full article

Oh dear, another Game of Thrones spin-off is no longer in development at HBO, this time the one set to focus on Jon Snow. With Game of Thrones having been as successful as it was, it's no surprise that HBO would want to capitalise on that as much as possible. Unfortunately for the network, it's only actually managed to get one show off the ground so far, House of the Dragon, whose second season is due out this summer. And now, in an interview with Screen Rant, Jon Snow actor Kit Harington has confirmed that the sequel series starring his character is no longer in the works. "I hadn't really ever spoken about it, because it was in development," Harington said. "I didn't want it leaked out that it was being developed, and I didn't want the thing to happen where people kind of start theorising, getting either excited about it or hating the idea of it, when it may never happen. Because in development, you look at every angle, and you see whether it's worth it. Read more View the full article

From time to time, certain League of Legends champions dominate roles they weren’t made for. In the latest update, this is the case for one iconic Fighter. In Patch 14.7, Garen boasts the highest win rate in the mid lane.

According to the patch notes, keeping your Pals in the Pal Box should now work to remove Negative Pal statuses affecting them in Palworld. According to several reports on Steam and Reddit, however, players haven’t been able to remove Negative Pal statuses despite keeping their Pals in their Pal Boxes for over 24 “real life” hours.

Ok, so, you know that bit in Helldivers 2's now iconic intro cinematic where one minute, everything's fine, and the next some poor man's screaming because a Terminid is ******** his family right in from of him? Well, thanks to a new behind-the-scenes video from the company that made the sequence, you can now enjoy a hilarious ultra close up of the mo-cap for that scene. Yes, it's a weekday and we're casually reccomending that you take time out of your day, minutes of your life that you'll never get back, to watch a man scream into a camera while dressed in the slightly silly clothing that a lot of modern games, films, and shows require. Look, it's a bit funny, ok? I promise. To see this bit of screaming, you'll need to check out a new behind-the-scenes video that Goodbye Kansas Studios, the Swedish VFX studio that worked on the game's intro alongside Arrowhead, has just put out. It's not too long, but offers some interesting glimpses at the motion capture and modelling that went into bringing the intro to life in a fashion that's not just people in funny suits running around with **** props.

After a long wait, the first trailer for Joker 2, aka Joker: Folie à Deux, is here, and honestly, it doesn't look half bad. One of the biggest questions surrounding Joker 2 is whether it's a musical or not. Supposedly, it isn't one, but the film's first trailer released yesterday at CinemaCon and I'm having a hard time believing that. In the trailer, we finally get a look at Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn in action, though with the trailer only being a couple of minutes long, it's hard to get a good read on what her performance will be like. Though, the little we do see of her performance is looking good so far, something that isn't exactly surprising for the talented actor. Director Todd Phillips did appear at CinemaCon to discuss the film, where he shared that the original intention was to only do the one Joker film, but while talking to lead actor Joaquin Phoenix, the two spoke of doing another "because it was so fun and we liked the character of Arthur and Joker so much." Then, the pandemic happened, and the two brought up the idea again, "and now we're here." Read more View the full article

The Finals Shape showcase for Destiny 2 on April 9 revealed new Exotic class items that will seemingly completely change the meta and potentially the fashion game. The upcoming Exotic class items can roll any two Exotic armor perks in Destiny 2. Exotics like these are bound to become the meta as soon as they are released simply due to their strength potential. However, using only these Exotics means your fashion is at risk, which is why on April 9, a Destiny 2 fan on Reddit suggested we should be able to transmog the Exotic class items, just like we can any Legendary class item.
