After negotiations between Mojang and LEGO fell apart in 2012, the Minecraft spin-off title Brickcraft ended development, but a dedicated group of fans has now found a playable prototype build of the collaboration game. Brickcraft would have transformed the world of Minecraft into a LEGO-inspired realm filled with the familiar pieces of the building-block toys, and in spite of no official release ever coming to fruition, a usable version of the game has finally surfaced.

Xbox Game Pass is having a very good year, and while June has been a little slow for new releases on the subscription service, there’s plenty more to come in the latter half of 2025. One game set to come out later this year is Keeper, an indie title by Double Fine, the studio behind 2021’s Psychonauts 2. In it, players take control of a crumbling lighthouse with legs as it explores strange new environments with its sea bird friend, solving puzzles and discovering why it feels the urge to head to the center of its island.

Marvel Rivals' season three begins in two weeks, and it appears we now have official confirmation of which heroes will be joining the roster when it arrives, thanks to a leak from streaming site Twitch. The whoopsie came as part of a new blog post about Twitch's "Summer Drops Fest," highlighting viewership rewards across a variety of games. One of those games is Marvel Rivals, and the description given spills the beans. Image via Kabam Games, Inc. "Phoenix and Blade ignite the action in Marvel Rivals Season 3: The Abyss Awaken!" the blog post reads, pointing to new Twitch Drops for Hawkeye beginning on July 11. "Get ready for all-new team-ups, stunning Venomized costumes, and sizzling summer events that will turn up the heat. Don’t miss out—tune in to Marvel Rivals on Twitch for exclusive drops and dive into this epic new chapter!" If you've been paying attention to the game's lore over the past few months, the two new heroes should come as no surprise. Blade first appeared in season one as a victim of Dracula who's been resting up until he disappeared from one of the maps recently, and the ending of season two's lore hinted heavily at Phoenix coming to the game. What's most disappointing to me, however, is that from data mines in the past, both heroes were listed as Duelists. Yes, more damage-dealing heroes, in a roster that's already chock full of them. The role distribution has been Duelist-heavy since launch, and now it's just getting worse. Currently, the game's roster has 10 Vanguards and nine Strategists...and a whopping 20 Duelists. That uneven distribution is about to get even worse, if the roles have not changed since past data mines. Marvel Rivals is about to get straight up tumultuous, with new heroes and seasons launching every single month. I really think it's going to be a balancing nightmare, and I'm curious to see how if at all it effects the game's playerbase, especially after seasonal launches bring people back. Season three of Marvel Rivals, and its two new Duelist heroes, are set to arrive on July 11. With today's error by Twitch, I'd expect the official confirmation of season three to becoming pretty soon. If nothing else, the Venomized and summer skins should be awesome. The post Twitch just leaked Marvel Rivals season 3 details early, including both new heroes—and I’m bummed about the choices appeared first on Destructoid. View the full article
It's time to take on the legendary Galarian Pokémon in their Crowned forms in Pokémon Go and with the Hero's Journey Special Research at Pokémon Go Fest 2025: Global, you'll have a chance to get a lot of rewards throughout the process. Not only will you unlock a bunch of items and rare Pokémon, you'll also get yourself one step closer to getting a Crowned Zacian or Zamazenta, depending on the choices you make. There are two Special Research tasks during Go Fest 2025 Global, so if you want to get Volcanion first, you're in the wrong place. But if you do want to see what awaits you on the Hero's Journey, take one step towards your goal and see what awaits you over the weekend to complete each task.

Two different Special Research are being added with this event, with one being themed around Zacian and Zamazenta, while the other will take you to Volcanion, which is what this article is about.

It's Pokémon Go Fest 2025 Global time, and with it, this special research asks you once again to carve out a path for yourself through a handful of options. But which is the best to pick? In the GO Fest 2025: Hero's Journey Special Research tree, you are tasked with choosing to go down the Crowned Sword Journey or the Crowned Shield Journey. Picking either of these tasks will help you to get one of the two Crowned Pokémon of either Zacian or Zamazenta, but it doesn't lock you to only one, as you can get the other via doing raids throughout the weekend. In my opinion, there is one choice worth going for more than the rest of them, but let's first show you what the choices are, and then I'll direct you where I think you should go. Is it better to go Crowned Sword or Crowned Shield in GO Fest 2025: Hero's Journey in Pokémon Gohttps://twitter.com/PokemonGoApp/status/1938251234432933954 Choosing the Crowned Sword Journey will have you focus more on Zacian in Pokémon Go, while choosing the Crowned Shield Journey will have you focus on Zamazenta. The main changes this makes to the rewards you get are mainly related to Candy around the two Pokémon, with all of the rewards remaining the same. Choosing the Crowned Sword journey will have you focus on catching more Fairy-type Pokémon for some of the tasks first, whereas the Crowned Shield focuses on Fighting-type Pokémon instead. So the choice comes down to you. Look at what habitat you are in. If you are getting Fairy-type spawns, maybe go down the Sword Path if you want to speedrun the tasks to get them out of the way. But in my opinion, the tasks are better suited to personal circumstances. If you only plan to play Saturday, for example, you'll miss out on Zacian raids on Sunday, so choose the Crowned Sword path to get what you need for the Zacian form unlock so you don't miss out. Either way, picking either option won't have you miss out on much if you plan to play the whole weekend and go all in on raids to try to find enough Energy to change the forms of both Pokémon. So take whichever path you like, knowing you're not missing out on anything major. So honestly, pick what you want, but if I had to choose. I'm going to go the Crowned Sword Journey path so I can get both Crowned forms of Zacian and Zamazenta on the same day and enjoy my Sunday focusing on Shiny Pokémon. But you might have different goals from mine.

The next mainline installment in the long-running Resident Evil franchise, Resident Evil Requiem, was revealed at the end of the Summer Game Fest show as a "surprise" that had been hinted at several times throughout the presentation. Requiem will star newcomer Grace Ashcroft, daughter of Alyssa Ashcroft from the underrated Outbreak spin-off games. But I'm not convinced she is the only protagonist, especially after the abrupt name-drop of Leon Kennedy from director Koshi Nakanishi during the Capcom Spotlight showcase. View the full article
If you have bought a ticket for Pokémon Go Fest 2025: Global, you'll notice a little note on the paid ticket that says you have increased shiny odds, without the game giving you any indication of what those increased odds actually are. And while you can find shiny Pokémon during Go Fest without paying for the ticket, you'll find significantly fewer Shiny Pokémon compared to those who paid for the privilege of finding more. Granted, finding a Shiny Pokémon is no guarantee. So what exactly are these increased shiny odds Scopely seems keen to sell you on, without telling you the exact details? What are the odds of finding a Shiny Pokémon at Go Fest 2025: Global? There is no way of telling the exact shiny rate odds during the event, as Scopely doesn't publicly reveal them, which feels pretty off to sell odds you aren't even being told what they are. The community, however, has crafted a list over the years of estimated shiny odds, which helps us to get an idea for this upcoming event. The estimated shiny odds for the Global event are estimated at 1 in 128, meaning for every 128 encounters, you have a single chance of finding a Shiny Pokémon. As for the raids, such as Zacian and Zamazenta, you have an estimated shiny odds rate of 1 in 20, with the other Pokémon like Pikachu and Falinks costumes being closer to one in 38. They aren't great odds, as the likelihood of finding that many Pokémon over the weekend in the 16-hour total event is slim pickings, especially if you are after a handful of specific pocket monsters from the large pool. Some Pokémon will only spawn 2 hours each day, and the chances of finding it, let alone as a shiny, are increasingly difficult. So if you are going into Global Go Fest hoping to find only a couple of things, prepare for potential disappointment. Every Pokémon apart from Klefki will be available as a Shiny during Global Go Fest, so even if you don't find the one Shiny Pokémon you are looking for, hopefully, something will come up instead. I'll be going after Morelull and Skiddo myself, so best of luck, trainers! The post What are the increased shiny odds at Pokémon Go Fest 2025 Global? appeared first on Destructoid.

Pokémon Go Fest 2025: Global is upon us, meaning for a single weekend, trainers will be glued to their phones trying to find and catch as many Shiny Pokémon as possible on Aug. 28 and 29. Pokémon Go Fest 2025 Global Shiny Pokémon Checklist There are only a small handful of new Shiny Pokémon at this year's Global Go Fest, and a handful of exciting Pokémon.

Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader’s executive producer, Anatoly Shestov, has recently shared his dream game: a title based on the Secure, Contain, and Protect (SCP) universe. This is certainly an unusual idea, as Owlcat Games has mostly focused on well-known IPs so far, but the creators of Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader certainly seem capable of pulling it off.

Bethesda has released many popular titles over the years, but recent releases have been far behind its success in the past, especially the FPS Redfall. This game was released to absolutely brutal reviews, with its focus on simultaneous multiplayer and single-player content being received poorly by players. However, Bethesda still continues to push this game even two years later, but will likely fail to recapture an audience for it. View the full article
