Sometimes you come across a game that feels like it was made to cater specifically to your interests, and for me, that's Tanuki: Pon's Summer. Just seeing the trailer of this mail-delivering, BMX-riding life sim was enough to convince me to add it to my wishlist. To be honest, the tanuki alone was probably enough. But now, having played its (albeit too brief) demo, I am thrilled that it feels like it'll live up to my expectations... Read more.View the full article

Fans across the world are paying tribute to "titan of soul" D'Angelo, who died yesterday aged 51 after an undisclosed battle with *******. D'Angelo was behind the hugely popular Red Dead Redemption 2 track, Unshaken, and fans of the game as well as developer Rockstar paid tribute following the news. In a statement posted to social media, Rockstar Games called D'Angelo a "true titan of soul," writing: "We are eternally grateful for his track Unshaken which will forever be an enduring part of the legacy of Red Dead Redemption 2." The Grammy-award winning musician released three albums over his career. 2014's ****** Messiah was his last album, which makes the iconic track included on 2018 Red Dead Redemption 2's soundtrack one of his final pieces. The entire track can be heard in the mission Dear Uncle Tacitus, in an impactful segment when you're riding a horse back to camp. It boasts over 55 million streams on Spotify alone. D'Angelo was a huge fan of video games and would visit Rockstar during Red Dead Redemption 2's development after reportedly reaching out to Ivan Pavlovich, director of music and audio at the studio, through an intermediary, to "just play the game." "We weren’t even talking about doing music,” Pavlovich told RollingStone in 2018. "When D’Angelo comes through, he shows up at midnight, and he’s playing the game until four in the morning. Each time he was just like, ‘It’s incredible.’ It just blows his mind. He’s such a fan. I have never seen someone that excited. D’Angelo’s actually a massive, massive, massive fan of the game — more than I ever knew." It was because of this that Pavlovich asked if D'Angelo would be interested in contributing to the soundtrack, which is partly why there are some vocal tracks on an otherwise chiefly instrumental score. Dozens of artists have paid tribute to the musician, including Flavor Fave, Beyoncé, Nile Rodgers, Lauren Hill, and Doja Cat, but so have hundreds of gamers, some of whom were introduced to D'Angelo's music through Red Dead Redemption 2. Others are learning for the first time that D'Angelo was behind the notable track. "I can’t think about RDR2 without Unshaken and how that particular transitional scene changed the game to such a complete form of entertainment for me," wrote one affected player. "For anyone who says 'it’s just a game' - they need to experience how this song was used." "If you haven't heard any more of his music, you need to know the man was one of the absolute best in his genre, an elusive legend," said another. "His album Brown Sugar is literally no skips, if you're interested in music at all, it's worth a listen." "My favourite video game song of all time. RIP. That song will always be a part of me," wrote another fan. Photo by Frans Schellekens/Redferns.

Battlefield 6 players haven’t decided what their favorite weapons are yet, but they’ve already fallen in love with a new movement tech called “ladder launching.” To catch you up to speed, the ladder is a gadget available to use with the Assault class in Battlefield Studios and EA’s latest Battlefield game. It’s a traversal tool that can be used to reach high-up places, opening up opportunities to gain new vantage points or even sneak up on unsuspecting enemies. The thing is that now, just days after Battlefield 6 launched for PC and consoles, the ladder is also being used for much, much more. The ladder is a nice idea but the physics around it seems to be a bit finicky byu/xXRougailSaucisseXx inBattlefield .reddit-embed-wrapper iframe { margin-left: 0 !important; } If you’ve even accidentally whipped out the ladder while playing Battlefield 6 multiplayer, you might have noticed that actually mounting it can be a hassle. The bottom of the gadget bumps players around if placed at a certain angle, triggering moments that balance frustration with slapstick humor. While some Assault classes in Battlefield 6 have found practical uses for the tool, others are struggling to use it at all. However, it’s a secret, third segment of the community that has pushed things even further by using those wonky physics to catapult themselves around maps. Ladders might be broken in Battlefield 6 [Hidden Content] — Mokey (@mokeysniper) October 11, 2025 X/Twitter user @mokeysniper published a video detailing exactly how the ladder launch works, admitting that, while the move is far from a game-breaking exploit, it is quite fun to pull off. All it takes is maneuvering around the gadget at the right angle and speed, causing a chain reaction that sends players careening through the air. Sadly, ladder launching is, mostly, practically useless in Battlefield 6. That said, some players are still finding ways to create entire montages centered around ladder launching. Took 2 hours to break ladders in BF6 #BF6 [Hidden Content] — merkwy (@merkwey) October 12, 2025 Players probably should get too used to ladder launching in Battlefield 6, though, as David Sirland, lead producer at Battlefield studio DICE, has already confirmed the Battlefield Studios team has plans to deliver a patch in the future. Considering the average player will find its bumpy edges more annoying than useful, a patch is probably a good call. We can likely expect even more ladder launching clips to show up online while the team fixes the Assault ladder. In the meantime, you can see how other players are at least trying to use the ladder, below. You can also read our Battlefield 6 multiplayer review.

Dan Forden, the sound director best known to players as the ‘Toasty’ guy in Mortal Kombat, has retired after 37 years. Forden joined the industry in 1988 and worked on the audio for numerous Williams and Midway pinball machines, as well as Midway video games. It was his work on the Mortal Kombat series, however, which players will be most familiar with. Forden worked on the music and sound effects for the first Mortal Kombat game, and would go on to work on every main entry in the series, eventually joining NetherRealm studios where he was most recently audio director on Mortal Kombat X, Mortal Kombat 11 and the series reboot Mortal Kombat 1.

Every genre needs innovators and iterators to tear up the rulebook and create a new baseline for future devs to build upon. However, it's far easier to play it safe, especially when there are millions of dollars on the line in triple-A companies.

Destiny 2's Heliostat mission brings the Guardian to an old Warsat facility to foil the Conductor's plan. As usual, guardians can find a couple of secrets and collectibles hidden around the mission. Grabbing them lets you improve Wolfsbane, the game's first battleaxe (Yes, it weapon does get more fun to use). Heliostat's secrets include ways to improve Wolfsbane's Resurgence Directive intrinsic and to grab its four catalysts, which are needed to unleash the blade's full potential. Since it's a craftable weapon (a dying breed these days), you can also customize some parts to play to the axe's strengths. We covered how to get Wolfsbane's catalysts and intrinsic upgrades in dedicated articles, so here's a quick, summarized breakdown of how to get all secrets in Heliostat, as well as the recommended route to get those done in a single run. Table of contentsAll Wolfsbane catalyst locationsAll Wolfsbane intrinsic upgradesRecommended order for the Heliostat secretsAll Wolfsbane catalyst locations Bring a data pad to the right terminal and you're good to go. Screenshot by Destructoid The Wolfsbane catalysts use a type of lock-and-key system, with data pads serving as the key to certain computer terminals in Heliostat. To unlock each catalyst, find the matching data pad and interact with the corresponding terminal. We highly recommend doing these in order, at the risk of your catalysts glitching out later. Catalyst effectData pad locationTerminal location Attrition OrbsAt the beginning of the mission, after you summon the shielding Psion for the first time. The data pad is near the second nuclear core.Next to the spot where you can summon the Psion for the second time.Relentless StrikesImmediately after dropping down the electrified elevator shaft. The data pad and terminal are hidden in secret rooms, which you can access by controlling the elevator with the hacking Psion. Press the left button to make the elevator go down, the rightmost one to find the data pad, and the one in the middle for the terminal.In a hidden room after dropping past the elevator, accessible by hacking the middle symbol on the console.Burning AmbitionIn the puzzle room before the longer platforming section, interact with three computers to reboot the systems. The computers are spread out in a Y shape, with the "leg" coming from behind the beacon. After that, redo the security puzzle to unlock a room with the terminal. The data pad is on a walkway up top.In a secret area below the main room in the Warsat cooling facility, after redoing the security puzzle.Subroutine: ~RecursionIn one of the hallways with a gravlift override during the platforming section. The data pad is in a gap on the floor near an active reactor. Access it by taking the left path from the main room.At the back of the other hallway with a gravlift override switch, just behind the player's entrance point. All Wolfsbane intrinsic upgrades Catalysts aren't the only enhancement. Screenshot by Destructoid To upgrade Wolfsbane's intrinsic, you must use the axe to destroy nine Vex crystals located at key points of Heliostat. They're usually hidden in unlit nooks and crannies, which may be a giveaway. Here's a brief list of where to find each shape. Intrinsic ShapeLocationIntrinsic UpgradeDiamondIn the first room full of water, immediately after destroying the four security nodes. Face the Quicksilver Psion and look behind you and to the left.Resurgence Directive IIDiamondStill in the first platforming part, on the last ledge in the following water-filled room. Find a door that sits above you with a lamp, then look for an unlit section on your left. Alternatively, jump to the ledge and look to the right.Resurgence Directive IIDiamondIn the darker room, on a platform covered by a pipe. This is on the left of where you come in, though it's tricky to spot due to the angle. If you encountered the hacking Psion, you went too far.Resurgence Directive IITriangleIn the longer parkour section, just past the elevator on the right side. Find the ledge with two Goblins shooting at you, then look across from them.Resurgence Directive IIITriangleStill in the platforming section, not long after grabbing the other elevator, on top of a reactor.Resurgence Directive IIITriangleAlso sitting on a reactor as you near the other end of the platforming section. Find it before making a long jump to a platform below and to the right of your path.Resurgence Directive IIISquareAt the end of the boss room, in the far left corner.Resurgence Directive IVSquareIn the boss arena, in the first room with the hacker Psion.Resurgence Directive IVSquareAlso in the boss section, on a railing to your left as you help the Quicksilver Psion break through the second blockage. Resurgence Directive IVRecommended order for the Heliostat secrets This is probably the most important area of Heliostat as far as secrets go. Screenshot by Destructoid Based on our experience, here is the easiest order to grab all catalysts and intrinsics in a single run. Try to grab the catalysts in order, since not doing so might cause bugs. As soon as the mission begins, pick up the first data pad.Destroy the four security nodes and look for the first intrinsic upgrade in the labyrinthine section of the mission, with the murderous walls.Get past the elevator and grab the second data pad.During the final traversal area, look for the second intrinsic upgrade, as well as the third and fourth catalysts.Reach the boss room and destroy the symbols for the final intrinsic upgrade. Even if you know where to look, grabbing all secrets in Heliostat requires at least two runs in total, since you need Wolfsbane before you can interact with the collectibles. Like our content?

While some Destiny 2 fans deeply mourned SIVA (which seems dead for good) in the Heliostat mission, others were overjoyed by Wolfsbane, the new Exotic axe. Unlocking this weapon's full potential requires upgrading its intrinsic, which is done by finding secrets in the activity. Heliostat has two different sets of collectibles. The large, glowing, totally inconspicuous Vex symbols are required to upgrade Wolfsbane's Resurgence Directive intrinsic, while the datapads and terminals are the key to unlocking its four catalysts. We've explained the important (and missable) locations needed to juice up your axe below. Table of contentsHow to upgrade Wolfsbane's intrinsic in Destiny 2First Wolfsbane intrinsic upgrade location (Resurgence Directive II)Second Wolfsbane intrinsic upgrade location (Resurgence Directive III)Third Wolfsbane intrinsic upgrade location (Resurgence Directive IV)How to upgrade Wolfsbane's intrinsic in Destiny 2 It's a thing of beauty. Screenshot by Destructoid While you can shape the battleaxe as soon as you've wrapped up your first run of Heliostat, the biggest shaping options are locked behind upgrades. There are three sets of Vex nodes scattered at key points of the mission, and you must destroy them with Wolfsbane to unlock the respective upgrade. Hitting them with anything else shows an Immune prompt. In a solo run, we had to break all nine Vex nodes, but the math appears different when it comes to fireteams. Seemingly, the symbols are tied to the number of players who haven't unlocked that intrinsic. Theoretically, in a full team, each guardian should only need to break one set of shapes, though your mileage may vary. If you're by yourself, you should get an intrinsic after each group of three symbols. First Wolfsbane intrinsic upgrade location (Resurgence Directive II) The glow kind of gives it away. Screenshot by Destructoid Whack them with Wolfsbane. Screenshot by Destructoid The three glyphs in the first set of symbols required for the Wolfsbane intrinsic are shaped like diamonds. After you've destroyed the four security nodes at the beginning, drop down into an area filled with water and look for the first symbol in the one dimly lit alcove. It's to the left of the terminal and directly opposite the correct exit, on the far side of the room. When you see this, look left. Screenshot by Destructoid You can find this one sooner, but this is the safest spot to get it. Screenshot by Destructoid The next diamond is in the following section. Keep going until you see an alcove with a lamp slightly above you. Look to your left once you get there, or turn right if you jump across. This is the view from the other side of the room. Screenshot by Destructoid The final diamond is past that area, when you enter a dark corridor. This small alcove is hidden behind a pipe, which is difficult to see if you don't move around. Go to the room with the long walkway in front of it, then look for the unlit nook below and to your right. Second Wolfsbane intrinsic upgrade location (Resurgence Directive III) Don't get tunnel vision or you may miss this one. Screenshot by Destructoid The shape you need is above you. Screenshot by Destructoid The next set of symbols is in the longer parkour section. You'll find them in a different order depending on the path you choose, but what matters is breaking all shapes with Wolfsbane. After climbing on the elevator on the right, you'll reach an area with two Goblins shooting at you from a ledge up high, with a short, yellow walkway to their right. Look for this symbol across from the Goblins, hidden behind a wall. Keep your eyes peeled for this one. Screenshot by Destructoid This is the easier to see of the two. Screenshot by Destructoid The remaining two shapes appear on the other side of the room. They're very visible and are right in your path. One is just off the beginning, while the other isn't too far ahead. Third Wolfsbane intrinsic upgrade location (Resurgence Directive IV) The view from the back right corner. Screenshot by Destructoid Don't get too busy killing Cabal to forget about this one. Screenshot by Destructoid This one is almost a freebie. Screenshot by Destructoid The boss room is sectioned off into three parts: the main area and the two adjoining rooms required for the hacking mechanic. There's a symbol in each of them. From your spawn point, one of the squares is on the back left of the room. There's one more in the area where you summon the hacking Psion, floating above a computer terminal. The final shape you need is to your left after breaking through the second wall with the Quicksilver Psion. If you've destroyed all symbols, you should obtain the three necessary intrinsics, though being on a fireteam may net different results. This lets you shape the handle and blades (yes, plural) on Wolfsbane, giving you a little room to design this weapon as you'd like. Like our content?

Unstable Cores are a new item in The Edge of Fate, Destiny 2's latest expansion. This controversial currency was required to infuse weapons and armor beyond 200 power. Though the resource is fated to disappear in the future, Bungie gifted guardians 777,777 Unstable Cores to use until then. The newly minted Unstable Cores are integral to the leveling process, at least for the time being. If you're a new or returning player who doesn't know what to do with your lifetime supply of green rocks, here's a quick explanation on how they work, how to use them, and why they're going away. What are Unstable Cores in Destiny 2 Grab the gear from the Techsec chest for a full set of equipment at 300 power and an avalanche of Cores. Image via Bungie Simply put, Unstable Cores are consumed to level up your gear after reaching power level 200 and drop by dismantling gear past that threshold. Items with a higher level yield more Cores when destroyed, but infusing costs grow based on the discrepancy between the two items. How to use Unstable Cores in Destiny 2 New expansion, new gear, new currency. Image via Bungie Unstable Cores are used automatically when infusing items, like the now-defunct Upgrade Modules. Raising the power level of any item above 200 will consume some of your stash. Infusing between two of the same piece of gear or weapon only costs 1,000 Glimmer, however. If you have a well-rolled Techsec Hood helmet at 300 but got a 310 one with worse stats, using the latter as infusion fodder is a cheap option. For armor, this only works for the same class. Why Unstable Cores are being removed Kepler was the major point of Edge of Fate, but the new systems were also part of marketing. Image via Bungie Unstable Cores were far from being the biggest controversy with Edge of Fate, but they quickly became another problem for Bungie. The vision behind this currency was to add a source of fleeting, seasonal power during an expansion, which would reset when the next major DLC dropped. Understandably, that wasn't well received. The studio confirmed it will sunset this resource in the future and announced a one-time gift of 777,777 Unstable Cores—more than enough to tide guardians over until this currency goes away for good. "Overall, we've found that Unstable Cores have been too restrictive across power levels and fail to drive interesting buildcraft decisions," Bungie wrote. The rising infusion costs made it expensive to keep multiple builds at level, especially if you were playing more than one character (like bringing your Warlock up to code after the amazing Voidwalker buffs). Additionally, the expiration date for both a player's total power level and Unstable Cores—all with a lifespan of around six months—didn't help its case. Gathering stocks of materials only for them to disappear months later didn't appeal to guardians, and the studio even walked back the planned power reset with Renegades. Like our content?
