Sam Comrie — Mon, 18 May 2026 14:32:03 +0000

Fortnite's Ratatouille collab should've been a recipe for success, but where's the titular rat?

Quinn Collins — Sun, 17 May 2026 14:18:36 +0000

Fortnite leakers once again giveth and taketh away. When reliable leaker HypeX announced that there'd be a Fortnite Ratatouille collab on May 14, there was significant buzz in the community. Players online started predicting a Remy Sidekick, or an Alfredo Linguini skin, perhaps with Remy under his hat, secretly pulling the strings. Alas, HypeX has their hands on more details, and for some reason, none of that is happening. Instead, the Fortnite Ratatouille collaboration will be... a car. Trust us, we're as confused as you are, but HypeX is usually excellent for the details of these kinds of things, so we believe them. The leaker confirmed that the car will be in your Fortnite shop on May 18, but as of yet, we can't say how long it'll be around for or provide any prices. We also don't know what kind of car accessory it'll be - given that Ratatouille doesn't really have a famous car, we're imagining that if it is a full car, it will be a European-style vehicle. This means it could be a Vespa scooter, a classic Italian staple on the roads, or a Renault to nod towards its French origins. If it ends up being a decal, there's a chance it just has a plate of meatballs on it or something, which doesn't seem that appealing. Given that a car is a pretty random thing to choose, naturally, the Internet is irritated. While there was discussion of the logistics of Remy and/or Linguini Fortnite skins, including how proportionately huge Remy would have to be to fit the Fortnite Sidekick standard size, I'm not sure that any of us really expected Fortnite to ditch the potentially most exciting part of the crossover. A Sidekick would've gone absolutely nuts, especially if it was animated to match the hair-pulling shenanigans that Remy gets up to.

As L.A. Noire turns 15, Virtuos says it wants to bring GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 to Nintendo Switch

Sam Comrie — Sun, 17 May 2026 12:00:58 +0000

After the success of Bully, Grand Theft Auto IV, and Red Dead Redemption, where could Rockstar Games go next? At the time, Max Payne 3 and the open-world giant GTA 5 were still years away. The answer came in the form of a trip to 1940s Los Angeles, where players hunted killers, chased robbers, and uncovered police corruption. Released on May 17, 2011, at 15 years old, L.A. Noire continues to attract new fans. In November 2017, Virtuos brought the game to Nintendo Switch, marking it as the studio's and Rockstar Games' first release on Nintendo's handheld system. I spoke with Andy Fong, Jake DiGennaro, and Jeremie Boehm about the game's development and which Rockstar title they would most like to port next.

Mr. Mime | Pokémon guide

Quinn Collins — Sun, 17 May 2026 10:36:28 +0000

Ah, the pantomime. You'd find Pokémon's Mr. Mime up on stage if it existed in the real world, because it's hard to tell just what's going on in this humanoid 'mon's mind. Whether it's asleep or just pretending, don't let your guard down, because this Pokémon packs a punch - let's run through its locations in-game, base stats, moves, and more. If you want to find this copycat in your local mobile games, Pokémon Go codes or Pokémon TCG Pocket codes are ripe for the redeeming. Even if you can't find Mr. Mime - it's pretty rare - you should at least be able to fill up your Pokédex this way.

Pokémon Go's unbelievable Go Fest event shows that there can be too much of a good thing

Quinn Collins — Sat, 16 May 2026 14:42:07 +0000

Every year since the inception of the Pokémon Go Fest, the mobile game has brought the fun all over the world with in-game celebrations in the form of Pokémon Go Fest Global events. Whether it's Mythical Pokémon, special eggs, bonus raid passes, or a boosted chance to get Shinies, the event always brings the most. This year, the fun goes even further - indeed, some would say too far. Not only is the entire event free, rather than the $15 tickets we've seen before, but there are so many raids on offer that the chances of getting something you actually want are pretty slim, by the looks of it. 35 Pokémon will be available across Five-star, Mega, and Super Mega Pokémon Go raids on Saturday, July 11, while Sunday, July 12, will see 58 bosses available to fight, all of whom are completely different from the prior day's pool. Given that Pokémon Go only gives us a set number of raids a day, the chances of being able to get what you want are slim, and the chance of finding a fellow player to help you out is even slimmer. That means the raids introduced in the Pokémon Go event itself, Mega Mewtwo X and Y, will be nearly impossible to complete, making the whole thing pretty redundant, honestly. The saving grace of this is that Pokémon Go intends to give players nine free raid passes a day via gyms during the event. That doesn't make your chances of catching Mega Mewtwo that much better, or being able to assemble a squad to take it down, but it does mean you can actually attempt it if you do happen upon it. Alongside the free passes, Shinies will be boosted once again, incense and lure modules are active for more time than usual, and event-themed 'mon will appear, with the core three starters, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle, appearing in cute Pikachu visors.

Heartopia animals guide

Quinn Collins — Fri, 15 May 2026 16:04:58 +0000

Before you can adopt cats or dogs, Heartopia's animals need rescuing. I hate to see their little hungry faces, so I tear through the town looking for their feeding troughs, but it can be a touch difficult to find them. If you're like me and need to make friends with pixelated cuties, we've got the scoop on all their favorite foods, weather events, and where you can feed them. It's time to show that, outside of dressing up and furnishing your house, you can be a responsible adult. That being said, if you do want a little more cash to fill your boots with outfits and furniture pieces, we recommend some Heartopia codes, which are of vital importance to those of us unwilling or unable to shell out real money on currency. We also have a Heartopia review, in case you want to read what we liked most about the game!

On its 20th birthday, I look back on New Super Mario Bros' legacy as the defining Nintendo DS title and my first Mario game

Quinn Collins — Fri, 15 May 2026 15:26:18 +0000

Any Millennial or Gen Z gamer will be able to list their favorite Nintendo DS games. They probably had Nintendogs, Mario Kart DS, and maybe a couple of Pokémon titles and Animal Crossing: Wild World for good measure. But most of the people who owned a DS of any form or model played New Super Mario Bros., and this isn't just a guess - the game was the best-selling Nintendo DS game of all time, hitting 30 million copies. Like me, you might remember it as your first Mario game, but what you might not know is that today, May 15, 2026, is the 20th anniversary of the release of the game in the US. Yep, we're all that old. New Super Mario Bros. was the first Mario game in the sub-section of the franchise that was eventually named after it, which now includes New Super Mario Bros. Wii, New Super Mario Bros. 2, and New Super Mario Bros. U. This game was special for so many reasons, and as a platformer that combined a sort of half-blend between 2D and 3D graphics, it revolutionized the genre. It was also the first Mario scroller since 1996, taking time to develop due to the shift away from pixel graphics and the addition of mechanics from 3D games, like wall jumping, ground pounding, and more staples that we've come to expect in modern iterations of the game, like Super Mario Bros. Wonder. New Super Mario Bros. is iconic not just because of its format, though, but also for its extremely atmospheric soundtrack, immensely engrossing level-design, and excellent diversity in its gameplay. This includes the then-new Mega Mushroom and Mini-Mushroom power-ups, which allow you to access some of the most fun elements I believe you can have in gaming. Of course, each of the individual worlds have their own themes, and towers and castles played a large part in the fun, but the highlight in my mind remains the Toad huts, which gave me my first dopamine hits as a wide-eyed child. In combination, you have one of the best Mario games.

If you're scared of Switch 2 stick drift, these $20 Joy-Con 2 upgrades are here to save the day

Connor Christie — Fri, 15 May 2026 13:01:43 +0000

If you own a Nintendo Switch, you probably know a thing or two about stick drift. It's an issue that still plagues what remains one of the best handheld consoles, with some even attempting to sue Nintendo on the back of stick drift woes. While the Nintendo Switch 2 doesn't seem to have run into the same sort of issues yet, it could be possible, given that the Joy-Con 2's sticks use the same analog potentiometers as the ones that led to issues with the original Joy-Cons. Fortunately, a solution is already here in the form of GuliKit's TMR joystick replacements.

Goldeen | Pokémon guide

Kayleigh Partleton — Fri, 15 May 2026 12:57:17 +0000

The Pokémon Goldeen is one of the most common water-types that you'll not only encounter in Kanto, but in the majority of regions across the franchise - even Misty uses this fish. As such, you need to know what its base stats, moves, and strengths and weaknesses are, so that you can make the most out of it in battle. However, to be a true Pokémon master, you need to learn about every creature in the franchise, making our complete Pokédex an important thing to read. We also have a Pokémon Go codes guide, just in case you fancy some freebies.

Seaking | Pokémon guide

Quinn Collins — Fri, 15 May 2026 11:40:23 +0000

An intriguing horn and towering height at four feet, Pokémon's Seaking is a fierce ally and strong swimmer. Did you know that it's capable of swimming up waterfalls? It may be that it's less like a goldfish and more like a salmon after all. I wouldn't advise trying to eat it, though. Anyway, to get Seaking, you'll need your daily dose of Pokémon Go codes and Pokémon Pokopia Mystery Gift codes if you want to see a completed Pokédex. Now let's find out all about this huge fish.

ConcernedApe didn't say he's introducing Stardew Valley sidepieces for the 1.7 update, but there are mods for that

Holly Alice — Fri, 15 May 2026 11:19:04 +0000

There's been a bit of a hullabaloo in the Stardew Valley community this week. A new interview went live, followed by some X posts, which had some assuming we were going to be able to cheat on our spouses in a new update. This isn't the case, so let us look at the facts. In now-deleted tweets by AUTOMATONJapan, Pirat_Nation, and GoNintendoTweets, it was claimed that ConcernedApe was adding infidelity to Pelican Town's romance options. There are still some other articles floating around that claim cheating is going to be 'encouraged' in the next update, but we now know that this isn't true at all, and was misinterpreted. Most outlets have since rescinded their statements and have apologized for spreading false information. The thought came from recent X posts by ConcernedApe, where he talks about something he had considered once, and from information in a recent interview with GameInformer - which is paywalled, if you want to read it. To quote the developer's tweets exactly:

Seadra | Pokémon guide

Kayleigh Partleton — Thu, 14 May 2026 15:24:31 +0000

The Pokémon Seadra is one ferocious-looking creature, being among the more formidable ocean dwellers in the Kanto region, so it makes sense that you might want to have one on your team - Blastoise and Gyarados aren't the only worthy water-types, you know. In this guide, we'll give you all of the information you need to ensure Seadra is ready for battle. However, you can catch a glimpse of all of the other first-generation Pokémon (and the rest) in our complete Pokédex, so make sure you check that out to see what other potential pals are out there.

You can save over $100 on the Asus ROG Ally thanks to this too-good-to-miss deal, but time is running out

Connor Christie — Thu, 14 May 2026 14:49:20 +0000

If you're looking to get in on the handheld gaming PC revolution but don't want to break the bank, you need to check out this Asus ROG Ally deal. You can pick up a refurbished unit for just $389.99 on Woot, saving over $100 on the original asking price. For context, that makes this handheld cheaper than both the Steam Deck OLED and the Nintendo Switch 2. However, just because it's more affordable doesn't mean it's not well-equipped for all your gaming needs.

The first-ever Pokémon airport is opening in a beautiful Japanese seaside town for a limited time only

Quinn Collins — Thu, 14 May 2026 13:10:27 +0000

In case you didn't know, Pokémon is notorious for excellent collaborations - whether it's the Natural History Museum in London, SecretLab chairs, Uniqlo merch, or EDM nights out in LA with chart-topping DJ Marshmello, this is the franchise that keeps on giving. The latest cool crossovers are taking place in a seaside town in Japan called Noto, in an attempt to boost local tourism after an earthquake rocked the region: not only can you fly into the Noto Satoyama Pokémon With You Airport and see your favorite 'mon, but once you arrive, you can get a foot bath at the Wakura Pokémon Footbath. The airport will open on July 7, 2026, and remain until September 2029, so there's plenty of time to book your tickets and experience a new side of Japan, away from the mega-cities of Tokyo and Osaka. All 111 flying-type Pokémon will be dotted around to greet you as you fly in, alongside a fully decorated airport with merchandise and Pokémon-themed food for sale. So far, it looks like there'll be keyrings, T-shirts, travel tags, and even a suitcase, and for food, pancakes galore. Maybe I'll actually enjoy flying for once. Once you're settled in the town, which lies a mere 70 miles north of the closest city, Toyama, you can get yourself booked into the Wakura Pokémon Footbath, which uses waters from Wakura Onsen and overlooks the ocean. You'll be able to spot sculptures of various water-type Pokémon, a Gyarados-themed hot water tap, and all your favorite 'mon on the walls and windows of the establishment. That's not all, though, as if you continue to wander around, you'll find that Northern Noto is also home to some 'Poké Lids', Pokémon-themed manhole covers, just in case it couldn't get any more charming.

The best Slay the Spire 2 cards for each character

In this guide, you'll find our card recommendations for each of the game's five characters, as well as which colorless cards benefit specific build types. The only thing we can't guarantee is that you'll come across the cards you're looking for on your next run, but hey, there's always time after that (and the time after that and the time after that). Before we get into this guide, it's worth noting that Slay the Spire 2 is still in early access, so we expect our picks to change as the game receives balance and patch updates in the future. This list is also based on our own experience, so as we continue to grind through Ascensions while simultaneously developing our Slay the Spire 2 tier list and Slay the Spire 2 builds guide, we'll be back to add any cards that have come in clutch and saved a run.

Did Genshin Impact's latest trailer just introduce a Honkai Star Rail character?

Holly Alice — Thu, 14 May 2026 11:28:41 +0000

We're all very excited for Nicole to arrive in Genshin Impact and to dive into all the lore she brings with her. As the first playable Hexenzirkel member, she's sure to shake things up - and right in time for us to head to Snezhnaya, where the story really ramps up. A new trailer showcasing some of her lore is now live on the Genshin YouTube channel. In it, we see the trials she's been through, but also get a glimpse of her speaking to the Heavenly Principles themselves. For the first time, we see them get a name: right at the end of the trailer, Nicole says 'Phanes'. Phanes, eh? We know that in Genshin's lore, Phanes - also known as The Primordial One and Heavenly Principles - is likely linked to Kevin Kaslana of wider Hoyoverse fame. Perhaps you also know him as Phainon. What does this mean? Will we get a full crossover of the games? Is the lore intertwined? There are so many unanswered questions.

Horsea | Pokémon guide

Kayleigh Partleton — Thu, 14 May 2026 09:51:42 +0000

The Fortnite Overwatch collab drops tomorrow, but despite hype skins, some of us aren't happy

Quinn Collins — Wed, 13 May 2026 15:57:59 +0000

If you've ever wanted two of your favorite third-person shooters to crossover, you're in incredible luck today. Despite an official trailer being vague about the date, leakers are saying that the Fortnite Overwatch collab will hit the Fortnite Shop on May 14, with Overwatch-themed skins, emotes, weapons, and cosmetics, while quests, landmarks, and vehicle decals will be available in your game. It coincides with Overwatch's tenth anniversary celebrations and looks exciting for Fortnite fans - but some in the Blizzard game's community are pretty upset. Leaker HypeX says that the collaboration between the two games will see four Overwatch-themed skins, three emotes, and other assorted cosmetics arrive, ready for you to grab and jump into more Overwatch content in the game. This includes Act III-themed quests and rewards, an SUV with Overwatch decals, and Overwatch NPCs appearing throughout Fortnite's map. As of yet, we don't know what the prices of the skins will be, but we can't imagine them to be any more expensive than usual Fortnite skins of this variety. All in all, it sounds like a fun time - but some of the Overwatch community are not happy. Why? Well, it has less to do with Fortnite and more to do with the anniversary of Overwatch itself. Alongside the Fortnite crossover, Overwatch has unveiled its plans for its decennial anniversary over the past few days. On May 11, the game's Twitter/X page announced that those of you who log in between May 12 and June 1 will be eligible to earn 21 hero skins, 15 loot boxes, and a number of other items, such as titles and community-made cosmetics. Although this sounds fine to the untrained eye, unfortunately, it's been met with significant backlash from players, as they believe they deserve more.

4 reasons why I still use my Steam Deck OLED more than my Nintendo Switch 2

Connor Christie — Wed, 13 May 2026 15:43:19 +0000

When I received my Nintendo Switch 2, almost a year ago, I thought that it would be curtains for my Steam Deck OLED. I packed the Valve handheld in its case, put it on a shelf, and assumed I'd maybe pick it up from time to time, maybe during the occasional Steam Next Fest, if that. It felt a bit like that moment in Toy Story when Andy chooses Buzz over Woody, discarding the pull-string cowboy without hesitation. However, cut to eleven months later, and that's not exactly how it's all played out. No, it turns out that the Steam Deck OLED is still my go-to for gaming on the go, and, if I'm being honest, gaming at home. While I think that both the Valve console and the Switch 2 are two of the best handheld consoles around, I've come up with four reasons that I'm picking up the Deck when given the choice between the two. So, with my apologies to Nintendo, let's get into the details.

Quinn Collins — Wed, 13 May 2026 13:18:55 +0000

We're not going to give you actual nuclear codes - for one, that'd be irresponsible, and we also don't know them - but we can share the latest Nuke Your City codes for your Roblox adventures. Blast off with dynamite and upgrade your explosives, all within the comfort of your home, knowing that a true nuclear apocalypse would be bad, actually.

Tangela | Pokémon guide

Kayleigh Partleton — Wed, 13 May 2026 11:15:13 +0000

The Pokémon Tangela is one of the more interesting creatures to call Kanto home; it's certainly done a good job of living rent-free in my head all these years. If you're a trainer with a Tangela-shaped spot on your team, we're here to tell you all about its locations, moves, and more, so you can better prepare your pal for battle. If you're eager to learn even more, you can check out our complete Pokédex to learn about more than 1k Pokémon.

We've also got comprehensive guides covering the latest Zenless Zone Zero events and the power rankings in the Zenless Zone Zero tier list.

I didn't think Lossless Scaling on Steam Deck was a controversial issue, but it turns out I'm wrong

Connor Christie — Tue, 12 May 2026 15:58:22 +0000

It's no secret that while the Steam Deck is one of the best handheld consoles in terms of design and software, it might not be the most powerful. There are options to try to improve in-game performance, though, including the Lossless Scaling app. While I don't use it myself, I'd always assumed it was fairly popular, especially as the program currently has a 'very positive' rating on Steam after over 15k reviews. However, a new discussion among the Reddit community dedicated to Valve's handheld suggests that the appreciation for Lossless Scaling might not be as widespread as I thought. In a Reddit post titled "Do YOU find Lossless Scaling useful on the Steam Deck?", countless users have offered their thoughts on the app, and some of them are quite damning. One of the top comments at the time of writing reads, "No. It's pushed around like some magical cure for everything Steam Deck-related. To the point [that] I resent seeing it even mentioned." That comment has 482 upvotes, suggesting that Rainy_J isn't the only one who thinks that the frame-generating software isn't as game-changing as others continue to make out, with others raising issues such as ghosting and input lag. If you don't know, the Lossless Scaling app, published and developed by THS, is a tool intended to boost frame generation in games, which, in theory, should make gameplay look and feel smoother. In the app's defense, the Lossless Scaling Steam page clearly says that it's 'unsupported' for Steam Deck, and it requires a bit of fiddling to make it work on Valve's handheld, such as installing the Decky LSFG-VK plug-in in the Decky Loader software, but, until now, I'd only heard good things about using the app on Steam Deck.

Rhyhorn | Pokémon guide

Kayleigh Partleton — Tue, 12 May 2026 15:38:34 +0000

If you want to learn everything you can about the Pokémon Rhyhorn, you've come to the right place. We've been Pokémon trainers since the '90s, so you know we're very familiar with the Kanto region and all of the creatures who call it home. We can help you understand Rhyhorn's strengths and weaknesses, along with explaining how you can evolve it into the considerably more powerful Rhydon. We actually have knowledge to pass on regarding every Pokémon in the Pokédex, so make sure you check out our complete guide to learn who they all are. We're also happy to help you get some freebies; our Pokémon Go codes and Pokopia mystery gift codes guides are full of them.

Rhydon | Pokémon guide

Holly Alice — Tue, 12 May 2026 15:33:21 +0000

The Drill Pokémon, Rhydon, is the first evolution of Rhyhorn. You can further evolve it into Rhyperior, a second evolution introduced in Gen IV. Rhydon has two horns on its head, one of which is larger at the front. There's a slight size difference between males and females, with males having a bit of a bigger horn. As your Rhydon faces other critters from the Pokédex, make sure to brush up on both ground Pokémon weaknesses and rock Pokémon weaknesses so you can keep it safe and sound.

Mongil: Star Dive tier list and reroll guide May 2026

If you're wondering who to add to your team, our Mongil: Star Dive tier list and reroll guide can help you out.

Holly Alice — Tue, 12 May 2026 14:49:07 +0000

It's time to get excited about the fan-tastic character, Zenless Zone Zero's Velina. She introduces the wind element in combat, and does so with style while using huge fans to blast away enemies.

Grab the new Zenless Zone Zero codes here and make sure you save up some pulls for Velina, then take a peek at our Zenless Zone Zero tier list to see where every playable agent ranks.

Nintendo sales reveal Mario is putting Donkey Kong and Pokémon to shame on the Switch 2

Sam Comrie — Tue, 12 May 2026 13:58:21 +0000

It's always fascinating to see what's bringing in the big bucks over at Nintendo. While The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is doing gangbusters in theaters, earning $940 million at the box office, the company is shifting plenty of games. There are the usual outliers like Pokémon, but one game is the reigning champ. Put your crash helmets on and prepare your banana peels for the tracks, because Mario Kart World is taking home the gold for the Nintendo Switch 2.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Switch 2 review - great but not quite the holy grail

Connor Christie — Tue, 12 May 2026 11:00:10 +0000

It's time to whistle the iconic theme tune, crack your whip, and risk it all to grab your hat with seconds to spare, because Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is about to launch for the Nintendo Switch 2. I've been lucky enough to spend the last couple of weeks traveling across the world with Dr. Jones, collecting artifacts and laying the smackdown on treasure-hunting Nazis. Now it's time to deliver the verdict on this much-anticipated port. Given that this game has been available on other consoles and PC for a while now, I'm not going to concentrate on the gameplay too much in this review. Everyone at the time said it was great, and, well, I agree with them. It's one of the best action games I've played, for the most part. The combat sections feel authentic to the film, with an emphasis on melee bouts and light gunplay, the puzzle sections test the brain nicely, and exploration is rewarding. If you'd asked me what I wanted from an Indiana Jones game before I'd played the Great Circle, I'd be asking for all those things. What I wouldn't be asking for, though, is an overemphasis on stealth gameplay, especially in the early sections of the game. I don't mind a bit of sneaking around, but during the first post-tutorial quest, with Indy traipsing around the Vatican, it's especially prevalent, and it made completing some of the side missions before hightailing out of there feel like a bit of a chore.

Navy Tycoon codes May 2026

Quinn Collins — Tue, 12 May 2026 08:51:31 +0000

May 12, 2026: We checked for new Navy Tycoon codes, the latest of which offers a free spin. We also made sure none of the existing codes have expired. Whether you prefer a bit of building or commanding the troops, Navy Tycoon codes can offer you a little bit of an edge over those around you. With these codes, you'll get the likes of in-game currency, cosmetics, and spins for the lucky wheel, which offers a host of rewards in itself. Take down enemy ships and continue to expand your shipyard so you can sail smoothly through this Roblox banger.

Kanom Tokyo codes

Kayleigh Partleton — Tue, 12 May 2026 08:43:01 +0000

Whether you're on the side of Ghoul or CCG, using Kanom Tokyo codes is a surefire way to help you get ahead in this Tokyo Ghoul-inspired Roblox game. Getting the best powers isn't easy, as you likely already know, so any opportunity to get additional items to help you grow stronger is only ever a good thing. The PvP is one of our favorite things about the game, though we all know your chances of winning go hand in hand with the abilities you have. Beyond skills and fighting, we're also fond of exploring Tokyo, battling our way through the different districts, where you can encounter different bosses and enemies.

Weezing | Pokémon guide

Daz Skubich — Mon, 11 May 2026 16:24:31 +0000

While it's not the prettiest Pokémon, Weezing is a fantastic design for a creature and has a lot of competitive viability, too. It even got a redesign in the form of Galarian Weezing, whose tall top hats mimic the chimney stacks of old-timey English factories. This in-depth guide is just one entry in our Pokédex, so make sure you take a look at our lists of the best gen 1 Pokémon and the best poison Pokémon to see where Weezing ranks.

Wuthering Waves Denia release date, voice actors, and lore

Holly Alice — Mon, 11 May 2026 15:35:13 +0000

We're looking forward to meeting Wuthering Waves' Denia in the game's story, as she debuts in update 3.3 - and then taking her along in our teams to cast some fiery fusion attacks at our enemies. If you're saving up for her, make sure to use the new Wuthering Waves codes from our guide, and then check out our Wuthering Waves tier list to see who the top supports and buffer options are.

Marowak | Pokémon guide

Kayleigh Partleton — Mon, 11 May 2026 14:54:38 +0000

The Pokémon Marowak is one of the original 151, meaning it's been around for a very long time, long enough to even have a second version in the seventh generation of the franchise. So, to make sure you can make the most out of this 'mon regardless of which one you have, we're going to go through the locations, moves, and base stats for both. Then, as a reward for studying up on Marowak, you can head over to our Pokémon Go codes guide to see what freebies are waiting for you. We also have a complete Pokédex that you can check out if you want to learn about other creatures.

You can get this great Switch 2 Pro controller alternative for half the price of Nintendo's gamepad, but not for long

Connor Christie — Mon, 11 May 2026 14:44:44 +0000

It's no secret that not only is the Nintendo Switch 2 an expensive console, but the brand's official accessories are also pretty pricey, including the roughly $90 Switch 2 Pro controller. Fortunately, there are some fantastic alternatives, such as the 8BitDo Pro 3 Bluetooth Gamepad, which is now cheaper than ever on Amazon, down 40% from $69.99 / £59.99 to just $41.99 / £34.99.

I spent two weeks in Moonlight Peaks, and now I thirst for more of this year's supernatural farm sim

Holly Alice — Mon, 11 May 2026 13:23:25 +0000

Boy, was I ready for this - Moonlight Peaks has been on my radar for a long time, and I am bloody impressed with it, if you pardon the phrase. 'Farm sim' is definitely my favorite genre of game, but it can get a little stale like last month's wheat - so a shake-up in the formula is very much appreciated. For Moonlight Peaks, it comes in the form of only farming at night, and you being a literal vampire. You take on the (slightly daunting for a sci-fi fan like myself) role of Dracula's child, who's leaving home after getting sick of their parents and moving out to Moonlight Peaks to start fresh. Here, you inhabit a rundown farmhouse with some overgrown land. Everything is a fairly gloomy purple and green color, due to it being nighttime. You can't stay up into the day, on account of you being, y'know, a vampire. You need to head back to sleep in your coffin by the early hours of the morning or else.

Pokémon announces 30th anniversary Uniqlo collection, but the coolest designs are only for kids

Daz Skubich — Mon, 11 May 2026 11:43:53 +0000

The Pokémon 30th anniversary celebrations continue as Uniqlo announces its second wave of nostalgic collaboration t-shirt designs, which are due to hit stores in Japan in late July and the rest of the world in August. The collection contains four unisex adult designs and four kids' designs, using the original sprites from Pokémon Red and Blue. By far the classiest design of the four, that's stirred up discussion on social media, is the grey shirt that features each of the gen 1 Pokémon Gym Leaders' aces and their respective levels. It's a clean and simple design, showcasing the goofiness of the original Pokémon sprite designs and also adding miniature greyscale versions of the eight Kanto gym badges as a sleeve motif. This design also reminded me that Giovanni's ace isn't his beloved Persian - it's a level 50 Rhydon. The other three adult shirt designs are pretty simplistic, but we're particularly big fans of the Pikachu evolution shirt. Chunky Pikachu sits on the shirt's pocket, with Japanese text underneath displaying the classic, "Oh? Pikachu is evolving!" text. So where's Raichu, you may ask. Take a peek inside the pocket, and you'll find the electric Pokémon sitting right there!

The biggest upcoming Switch games coming this year

Ruby Spiers-Unwin — Mon, 11 May 2026 10:45:41 +0000

Our list of the best new Switch games is here to cover the amazing titles you can expect in 2026, so you can learn all about the biggest and best names arriving on the portable console over the coming months. With the release of the Nintendo Switch 2, there's even more to look forward to on both consoles. While most of the upcoming Switch games only have a vague release window at the moment, we're sure an absolute truckload of cracking new games will reach the console or its successor by the end of 2026.

Lickitung | Pokémon guide

Quinn Collins — Mon, 11 May 2026 08:30:43 +0000

Another creature that is aptly named, you probably know that Pokémon's Lickitung naturally prefers to attack with its tongue. What you may not know, though, is that Lickitung's tongue is twice as long as its body, which is pretty crazy. Let's get into the stuff you really want to know about it, though, like its locations, moves, and strengths and weaknesses, among basic need-to-knows. Get your Pokédex as full as Lickitung's stomach with your Pokémon Go codes and Pokémon Pokopia Mystery Gift codes. That way, you'll be prepared for anything when in battle.

You can unlock a free CODM flip-flop skin for your combat axe, and it's awesome

Sam Comrie — Sun, 10 May 2026 14:00:20 +0000

The tomahawk or combat axe is quite underrated in CODM. I've been a fan of this piece of tactical gear since its debut in Call of Duty: Black Ops, launching it around Nuketown and Summit in hopes of getting the perfect clip. Now, a brand-new Call of Duty Mobile event is giving it a makeover, turning it into none other than a bright pink flip-flop. If you've ever fancied slapping someone with a vibrant bit of foam, then it's surprisingly easy to get.

Hitmonchan | Pokémon guide

Daz Skubich — Sun, 10 May 2026 09:36:33 +0000

Although the Pokémon Hitmonchan can be a little weird to look at due to its intensely humanoid design, it's a great asset for any team looking to roll with the punches. In this guide, we go through every important aspect that you need to know, so keep reading. The Pokédex is vast and full of interesting creatures, so take a look at our guides to the best fighting Pokémon and gen 1 Pokémon next to get to grips with Hitmonchan's peers.

Cubone | Pokémon guide

Kayleigh Partleton — Sun, 10 May 2026 09:00:07 +0000

If there's one creature that can tug at my heartstrings, it's the Pokémon Cubone. Trainers familiar with the Kanto region know very well what I'm referring to with the quest about Cubone and its mom. Still, there's much more to this lil guy than that, so let's look at everything you need to know, from its strengths and weaknesses to its locations across each generation. Just because I have a huge love for Cubone doesn't mean that there aren't plenty more Pokémon worth knowing about, and we can tell you they all are with our complete Pokédex. We also have a nice list of Pokopia mystery gift codes so that you can get some adorable items for your town.

Scott Pilgrim, The Ramones, and the many other influences behind indie gem Wax Heads

Daz Skubich — Sat, 09 May 2026 14:27:19 +0000

When we play videogames, we're often seeking transportation to a completely new world, filled with stories that we'd never encounter in real life. But sometimes, games are just as effective when they recreate hyperspecific experiences in our day-to-day lives. That's exactly how Wax Heads makes me feel with its depictions of the DIY music and record store scenes. This beautiful indie game had a hold of me from the moment I played its demo, and, as you can see from my full Wax Heads review, my connection to it only got stronger the more I played. So, of course, I had to get inside the heads of the people responsible for bringing Repeater Records to life. I got the chance to interview Murray Somerwolff and Rocío "Rothio" Tomé, the two creative minds who make up Patattie Games and the development of Wax Heads. I asked them about the process of making such a game, their artistic influences, and their own experiences in the world of music.

The Fortnite Droid Tycoon BB-8 event is here, but it isn't sticking around long for Star Wars fans

Sam Comrie — Sat, 09 May 2026 12:01:25 +0000

Say what you want about the sequel trilogy, but BB-8 is completely innocent. The lovable droid might be a pain to defeat in Star Wars Battlefront 2, but in Fortnite, they're just here for the vibes. If you want to hang out with them and Poe Dameron, you can jump into a limited-time Fortnite Droid Tycoon event this weekend. But don't hesitate to check it out, though, as they're not staying in-game for too long.

Exeggutor | Pokémon guide

Holly Alice — Sat, 09 May 2026 11:00:23 +0000

The Pokémon Exeggutor, known as the coconut Pokémon, is the evolved form of Exeggcute. While its pre-evolution does look like a bunch of eggs, Exeggutor is clearly a tree bearing round fruit. Especially its Alolan form, which sees it grow many feet taller. It's easy to get both variants and use them in battle, though. Exeggutor is, in our opinion, one of the best grass Pokémon designs out there, but if you want some more options, we recommend having a scroll through the entire Pokédex.

All Fish It rods and tier list

Holly Alice — Fri, 08 May 2026 14:53:39 +0000

Wondering which Fish It rods are the best for catching plenty of fish? Our tier list has them all ranked. Plus, we have a list of every single tool in the game and how to find it. Most rods give you a boost to your stats, too, which is nice. To help you get ahead in the game, use these Fish It codes for potions and help with the elemental rod quest. Then, go catch some Fish It fish using your shiny new tools!

Genshin Impact continues Sumeru's story, 1,164 days after we last left the desert

Holly Alice — Fri, 08 May 2026 14:42:26 +0000

The special program for Genshin Impact's version 6.6 just went live, and we got a good look at what the Traveler gets up to while heading back to Sumeru. Ah, Sumeru, the best archon quest out there, with luscious jungles, sprawling deserts, and downright evil Il Dottore making his in-game debut. The new update is called 'Truth Amongst the Pages of Purana', which is a title originally teased in the Chapter Storyline Preview from September 2020. This introduced the names of all the regions' quests, from Mondstadt up to Snezhnaya. It seems we've got a stop before we go to the land of cryo, though. It's been 1,164 days since the last Sumeru archon quest chapter (Caribert) went live, back in March of 2023. Now, in 2026, we head back to the nation of dendro to finish what we started. Nahida's in trouble again, Cyno, Tighnari, Kaveh, and Alhaitham are ready to meet up with us, and as we mentioned, Dottore is causing a ruckus.

How roguelikes like Slay the Spire 2 and Balatro changed my life, and why I love them for it

Connor Christie — Fri, 08 May 2026 14:29:27 +0000

I have a problem. If you'd asked me about my favorite genre of games just a couple of years ago, I wouldn't have known what to tell you. I'd have sounded like one of those annoying people who tell you they like 'all sorts' of music, which usually just means they like whatever is on the radio, rather than an actual eclectic taste ranging from Captain Beefheart to MF Doom. Now, I've discovered my favorite game genre, the roguelike. The problem is, I love roguelike games, including the likes of Slay the Spire 2, Hades 2, and Balatro, so much that I'm struggling to enjoy anything else. So, what is it about the roguelike genre that keeps me coming back for more? Well, dear readers, I am a depressed man. When I say I'm depressed, I don't mean I'm miserable; in fact, I like to think I'm pretty chipper, but if I spend more than ten minutes in a room on my own with nothing to occupy my mind, you can bet it won't be long before I start thinking about what happens when we die, the fabric of reality, and the eventual heat death of the universe. What I need is something that grabs onto my brain, almost like a parasite, and absorbs it. That's exactly what I get from the best roguelike games. When I'm playing Balatro, I'm thinking about what Joker card I need next, what Planet cards I could benefit from, and what deck I should pick for my next run. The same applies to Slay the Spire 2, as well as Hades 2, and that latter example might be even more egregious, as each run pushes the narrative a little further along in a way that always leaves you eager for more juicy lore tidbits. This engaging gameplay experience leaves very little room for existential dread, which can be a problem in games with massive open worlds that require lonely traversal or RPGs that aren't consistently challenging (with apologies to my beloved Pokémon).

The new SteelSeries headset is an essential companion for Switch and multiplatform gamers

Callum Self — Fri, 08 May 2026 13:35:54 +0000

I've never been shy about my love for SteelSeries. That might make me look somewhat biased, but on the other hand, when a company consistently produces hardware that runs circles around competitors, it's hard not to applaud what it's capable of. The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Omni practically takes a swing at cutting down the price of the luxury Arctis Elite, bringing very similar audio quality at a lower price, and that makes this an essential addition to mine and anyone else's gaming setup.

Genshin Impact Lohen release date, voice actors, and lore

Holly Alice — Fri, 08 May 2026 12:25:35 +0000

Want to add to your Mondstadt-themed character collection? Then you're going to need to grab Genshin Impact's Lohen - and maybe his signature weapon, too. He's the latest in the lineup of the Knights of Favonius, and strikes a cool silhouette with a navy and white outfit. We've got all the new Genshin Impact codes here, so you can save for Lohen, and you can check our Genshin Impact banner guide to see when he's coming up. Our Genshin Impact tier list can help you pick some teammates for him, too.

Genshin Impact Nicole release date, voice actors, and lore

Holly Alice — Fri, 08 May 2026 12:14:11 +0000

After years of waiting, we finally get Genshin Impact's Nicole as a character we can pull. She's the first playable member of the Hexenzirkel group, debuting in the Nod-Krai story's patches. Also known as the Silent "Mage" and the Voiceless "Angel", she uses the pyro element and is sure to set our teams on fire. All the new Genshin Impact codes are in our guide, giving you free primogems and other helpful materials. You can also check our Genshin Impact tier list to see where each character ranks.

Exeggcute | Pokémon guide

Quinn Collins — Fri, 08 May 2026 11:23:55 +0000

A pretty iconic figure of the franchise, Pokémon's Exeggcute might be less iconic without its punny name, but we sure are glad for the commitment to the bit. There's lots to learn about our sextuplet friend, including that the closer it is to evolution, the more cracks will appear on its shells. Neat, right? In this guide, we also go into its evolutions, locations in-game, moveset, and more, so let's go and learn together. If you're desperately seeking Exeggcute to add to your Pokédex, we have some handy freebies in the form of Pokémon Go codes and Pokémon Pokopia Mystery Gift codes - hopefully, you'll have no problems tracking it down.

Electrode | Pokémon guide

Kayleigh Partleton — Fri, 08 May 2026 11:13:10 +0000

The Pokémon Electrode is an explosive creature, to say the least, being practically synonymous with the self-destruct move, because as long as it takes you out, it doesn't care. So, to help you learn what makes this 'mon tick, we're going to walk you through all of its strengths and weaknesses, locations, base stats, and more - you'll be an Electrode expert in no time. However, it takes a lot longer to become a true master, as you need to learn about every beast in the Pokédex, but we're sure you're up to the task. We're also sure you know what you're doing on your adventures, but that doesn't mean we don't want to help you get some freebies with our Pokémon Go codes guide.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is officially getting more expensive, but not just yet

Connor Christie — Fri, 08 May 2026 09:44:36 +0000

After months of rumors and speculation, it's official: the Nintendo Switch 2 is getting a price increase. Despite launching less than a year ago for $449.99, the top pick from our guide to the best handheld consoles will have a new $499.99 price point as of September 1, which, if math isn't your strong suit, is an increase of $50. Don't think you're getting away with it if you're reading this outside of the US, though. Unfortunately, the Switch 2 is about to get more expensive wherever you're reading this from.
