Launched on Steam in 2022, it's a work of torqued cuboids, sunken pockets of city, and vaguely fractal fissures. While there are no living or active threats, as far as I can tell, you do have to worry about traps and Unstable Zones - "simple or even abstract architectural structures at the beginning, but getting more complex, vast and labyrinthine the further you go."

The Final Fantasy XIV Online Store is now selling a new FFIX crossover costume called Battlefield Rose's Attire that lets FFXIV players dress as General Beatrix. It costs $12 to get it in the MMORPG, and it arrives as the Valentine's Day 2026 Valentione's Day event starts for active subscribers.
This is a single-character outfit when purchased. It is not limited by gender, so anyone of any race could wear it. Square Enix's screenshots even show how the FFIX Beatrix Battlefield's Rose's Attire costume would look on an Elezen, Lalafell, Miqo'te, and Viera. It can also be dyed. Someone who buys the Battlefield Rose's pack gets the coat, eyeguard, manicae, sollerets, and tights. The eyeguard is considered a head item, so you can't wear anything else on that part with it.
Here's how it looks:
This is the second FFIX outfit to appear in FFXIV in 2026. The first was a costume inspired by Garnet. That was called Humble Attire. Only these two are available so far, and we haven't seen ones inspired by characters like Zidane or Vivi yet. Ones based on multiple FFX folks have showed up, however.
As for Valentiones Day, that runs February 2-16, 2026. The quest is called "The Icing on the Cake." Going through it gets someone the Cozy Valentione Beret, Cozy Valentione Cardigan, Cozy Valentione Slacks, Comfy Valentione Beret, Comfy Valentione Cardigan, Comfy Valentione Skirt, Cozy Valentione Shoes, Valentione Chair, Valentione Round Table, Valentione Rug, Rolanberry Valentione Cake, Valentione's Day MMXXV Advertisement, and the Orchestrion Rolls for "Affection Confections," "Flavors of the Heart," and "A Heartfelt Finish."
Final Fantasy XIV is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC, Valentione's Day takes place between February 2-16, 2026, and the FFIX Beatrix costume is available via the FFXIV Online Store.

Shift Up promised two Goddess of Victory: NIKKE crossovers in 2026, and it revealed one of them will involve the anime series Lycoris Recoil. Only a teaser image is available at the moment, and it seems to promise that both Chisato Nishikigi and Takina Inoue will be present. We'll know more for certain as the event date draws nearer, as it will start on February 12, 2026.
The official announcement included art showing off characters from the anime and the game, as well as some trademark elements from the series. Chisato and Takina are front and center. The hacker Kurumi is on the left, suggesting she could be the free SR unit given away during the event. The lycoris flowers also appear in the background. All three Cafe Sweety NIKKEs also showed up in the art too, with Frima, Milk, and Sugar there.
We've seen a number of Goddess of Victory: NIKKE anime crossovers before the Lycoris Recoil one. Evangelion showed up multiple times, with additional characters showing up each time. Chainsaw Manand Re:Zerofolks also showed up during special events.
Goddess of Victory: NIKKE is available on the PC and mobile devices. Lycoris Recoil light novels and manga are handled outside Japan via Yen Press, while the anime is on Crunchyroll. The crossover event between the two will show up on February 12, 2026.

While the wait for Dragon Quest XII continues, Square Enix has kept the fires burning for the Dragon Quest series by remaking some of the earlier entries. First, the legendary Dragon Quest III was given the HD-2D treatment while largely retaining its original structure. Next, Dragon Quest I & II underwent a similar process while also dramatically expanding on the sparser bones of those pioneering RPGs. While one might have expected Dragon Quest IV to be the next game to be reissued, Square Enix decided to hop ahead to the PlayStation Dragon Quest game, Dragon Quest VII. We've had plenty of time to spend with Dragon Quest VII Reimagined to see what its new take has to offer players both returning and new.
At the time Dragon Quest VII first released on the original PlayStation back in 2000, its five-year development time seemed quite lengthy. In Japan, expectations and anticipation ran equally high. The game met and exceeded that hype by most measures, going on to become the highest-selling PlayStation game in the region. When the game arrived in North America just over a year later, it was facing a very different situation. With Enix's original American offices having closed early in the 16-bit era, the mainline series hadn't seen a localized release since 1992. Dubbed Dragon Warrior VII for the West, the game struggled with being a humble-looking PlayStation RPG in a post-PlayStation 2 world.
Those who tackled the game came away with varying thoughts on it. Dragon Quest VII is a lengthy game relative to other RPGs of its era, with a slow initial build-up and lots of ways to get hopelessly far off-track. Its focus on a series of smaller vignettes over a strong over-arching plot ran against the popular grain of the genre at the time, and its systems could be rather complex. Some people loved these aspects, while others found themselves bouncing off of the game. When Square Enix made its first attempt at remaking the game via Dragon Quest VII for Nintendo 3DS, it attempted to address some of these issues. While preserving virtually all of the same events and most of the systems from the original, it was a brisker affair due to various additions and tweaks.
Dragon Quest VII Reimagined goes further, and it's a very different game from the source material. It subtracts almost as much as it adds, and at times it feels like the opposite of what we saw with Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake. It's a take that wants you to get lost less often and get to the exciting bits faster. Instead of the humble look of the original or using a throwback style, Dragon Quest VII Reimagined opts for a more modern presentation with diorama-like visuals. Its glasses are off, its hair has been styled up, and it's in the best threads it could find. Can it finally be the star of the prom?
It's a smoother experience than the previous versions of Dragon Quest VII. Many rough edges have been significantly sanded off, and a strong effort was made to reduce friction as much as possible. Getting lost is nearly impossible, as the game will always point you to where you need to go next. Important items will be marked on your map. You'll have your first battle much sooner. The job system is functioning right from the start of the game, though it still takes a little while before you can fully play around with it. Chunks of the world and the scenarios that go with them have been omitted. As an exchange, some things have been added to the story too. This is a version of Dragon Quest VII trying its hardest to please the crowd.
Stepping back from my own personal feelings, Dragon Quest VII Reimagined is without question a good RPG. It's very smooth to play, and I think its snappier pace makes for a more immediately appealing adventure. Yet I can't help but feel it has sacrificed a lot of its original identity to achieve all of this. Newcomers will likely enjoy what they find here, and the fact that it's so different from the previous versions means that returning players have a reason to play it as well. It's an abridged take on the game, for better or worse, but it's certainly a well-made one.
Dragon Quest VII Reimagined will come to Switch, Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S/X, and PC via Steam on February 5, 2026, 2026.

When the first season of Black Ops 7's Ranked Play ladder begins this week, reinforcements will be in place in the battle against cheaters and hackers.
Call of Duty's RICOCHET Anti-Cheat will have "a stronger form of remote, cloud-based attestation" ready to go when season two of BO7 begins on Feb. 5, which Activision describes as an "additional layer" of detection that "works before a match begins and builds on existing TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot requirements, setting a new industry standard for security."
"This approach verifies PC integrity using Microsoft Azure Attestation, directly countering attempts to bypass system-level protections," Team RICOCHET said. "It's the most robust attestation technology available in gaming, and bringing it first to Ranked Play helps ensure competitive matches are won on merit. These added protections help stop cheating before a match even begins, so games feel fair from the start."
In addition to this new layer, RICOCHET will be targeting players who use unapproved third-party devices to gain an edge, like Cronus Zen or XIM Matrix adapters, which the company said "are cheating tools, even if they masquerade as accessibility devices."
"These devices provide unfair advantages that exploit aim assist and make players question whether they're losing to a stronger competitor or to a cheater," Team RICOCHET said. They disrupt fair play, and they're a violation of Activision's Security and Enforcement policy."
Activision said that accessibility is important in CoD, but "these devices are not here to help with accessibility," claiming instead that "they exist to give cheaters an edge over players competing fairly, and that does not align with our standards for fair play."
Just like any modern online game, CoD has struggled with cheaters and hackers over the past few years, especially in the free-to-play Warzone mode, but not at all for lack of effort. RICOCHET sees updates constantly, and Activision has gone to the source by suing and shutting down multiple cheat providers over the last few years in its efforts to provide a fair experience. But these cheats are always evolving, and so, too, must the anti-cheat.
For all the info on RICOCHET's changes ahead of season two launching on Thursday, check out today's post on the CoD blog.

The best innate technique in Sorcerer Ascent depends on whether you're going for PVP or PVE so I will rank them for these two modes separatly. Clans on the other hand depend on whether you're investing stats for a melee/weapon build or a cursed energy damage build. Here are two Sorcerer Ascent tier lists for best innate technique and best clan.
Table of contents
Sorcerer Ascent Innate Technique Tier List
You get access to you innate technique by progressing the main story past Jujutsu High, finishing the CT unlock quest. The best techniques in Sorcerer Ascent are displayed above and I've explained the ranking reasons below for both PVE and PVP. Note that you can progress just fine by using the None innate technique since you can focus on melee skills and energy coating but this tier list assumes you're going for a cursed energy damage build.
Innate Technique PVP/PVE Ranking Explanations
Sorcerer Ascent Clan Tier List
Determining the best clan in Sorcerer Ascent is much simpler than CTs because it's just the question of what build you're going for and then higher stats. If you're going for high stat investments into cursed energy damage go for Choso and go Itadori if you're maxing melee/weapon damage. The tier list includes great alternatives with lower stats but higher drop chances.
Sorcerer Ascent Clans Overview
Sorcerer Ascent FAQ
What is the best PVE and PVP innate technique and clan in Sorcerer Ascent? Disaster Plant, Cursed Speech and Straw Doll are the best PVP innates in Sorcerer Ascent due to combo potential while almost all of them are good for PVE. The best clan is Choso if you want to build for CE damage and Itadori if you want to build for weapon/melee damage. How to get Soul Points/technique and clan rerolls in Sorcerer Ascent? You get Soul Points from Raids, Luck boxes and codes. How to get and use Blackflash in Sorcerer Ascent? You get Black Flash from the Hanami boss in the Goodwill Exchange Event in Jujutsu High (Lvl 40+) by M1-ing the boss until you see spark effects. When you do keep M1-ing until you get the Black Flash skill. You can do it by equipping it, M1-ing until the Black Flash skillbar icon lights up red and then pressing the button you assigned it to. Then you have to press it again when the flame fills up to perform a Black Flash. How to get a weapon in Sorcerer Ascent? The most accessible way is from Hotagurawa boss/dungeons and the Nanami weapon from the Nanami boss. How to get Domain Expansion? Check the guide under the Innate Technique tier list.

All around the Fortnite island, you'll encounter NPCs who need your help. One of these characters is Carina, and she's got quite a mystery for you to solve. To do so, you'll need to work through her quests.
Some of her tasks are rather tricky, and since they all fall under progressing one larger mission, it can be a bit tough to figure out how to work through them all. Finishing this quest series is crucial for keeping up with the main storyline, though, so here's how to uncover the mystery with Carina by completing her quests in Fortnite.
Table of contents
Uncover the mystery with Carina by completing her quests in Fortnite
To uncover the mystery with Carina, you need to complete seven of her missions to unlock the final stage in this quest series, which is another task you must tackle to officially finish the full series. There are eight Carina quests to choose from, so you can skip one and still get it done.
How to complete all Carina quests in Fortnite
Once you've checked off seven out of the eight quests from this series, Carina's final mission for you will unlock. The last task asks you to confront Vengeance Jones or Heroic Hope about the Dark Voyager. You just need to have a chat with either character to get this one done, so the only tough part about it is tracking them down.
Vegeance Jones can be found at Lethal Labs, while Heroic Hope is hanging out over at Classified Canyon. Once you've found either character, interact with them and select the quest dialogue option to proceed. As soon as you're done chatting, all missions will be complete, which means you're officially done uncovering the mystery with Carina by completing her quests.

For those outside of the states (or those unaware), every year on Feb. 2, the people of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, gather around to pull a groundhog out of his temporary home called Gobbler's Knob. And that's really about it! There's festivities, there's food, there's music and dancing, but it all revolves around the groundhog, and his name is Punxsutawney Phil.
Phil has taken on a legendary, sort of mythical status, that this one fluffy rodent has been predicting the weather since the 19th century. Well, it's clearly not the same one; there have been several throughout the centuries. The idea is that if Phil "sees his shadow," he predicts six more weeks of winter. And if he doesn't, well, springtime weather is coming early. It's silly, it's nonsensical, and it's fun.
Anyway, I'm here today because of a movie of the same name, Groundhog Day, released in 1993. Starring Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell, it has a simple but fun premise: "A cynical TV weatherman finds himself reliving the same day over and over again when he goes on location to the small town of Punxsutawney to film a report about their annual Groundhog Day." It's an all-time classic romantic comedy, and Bill Murray is at some of his best. It's on Netflix, and you should watch it.
The movie itself pokes fun at the holiday and town of Punxsutawney for its silliness, but it's got a lot of heart. Through re-living the same day over and over again, Murray's character learns some lessons. And it got me thinking about some of the enjoyment I've gotten by playing and re-playing (over and over) some of my favorite games.
So in the spirit of this "holiday" and the movie that gave it a whole new meaning, these are the games that I love re-living again, and again, and again.
Final Fantasy VIII
Go ahead. Talk your trash. I know a lot of people dislike FF8 for a variety of reasons, but I do not care. It is my first Final Fantasy game, and it's one I re-visit often. I played the original on PS1 (with all four of its discs) about a dozen times, and I've played the remaster a few more since.
I love the characters the most, I think. Squall, Rinoa, Zell, Quistis, Selphie, and Irvine bring me joy just thinking about them. Is it the best FF storyline? No way. Do most people hate the Junction and Guardian Force system, although I love it? Yep. FF8 feels like home to me, and even playing it again as an adult without the rose-tinted glasses, I love it. I see more of its faults, sure, but I still enjoy going back to it.
Simply writing about the game makes me want to play it again. And I want to see it remade one day, no matter how unlikely it may be, considering there are several others that probably deserve the honor more and would sell better as well. But I don't care. Catch me in Balamb Garden, stuffing hot dogs down my throat forever.
Resident Evil 2
While the RE2 Remake may have improved upon and surpassed the original in many ways for modern audiences, I still can't get enough of the OG. Way back in 1998, for my birthday, all I wanted was a PS1 and RE2. And, as a spoiled kid, I got them both.
I watched my uncle play the original RE1 years prior, and it scared the god out of me. And truth be told, I didn't finish RE2 until years later, because the zombies busting through the windows of Kendo's Gun Shop also scared the god out of me, and I couldn't sleep for days.
But eventually, I persevered, and I think this game is still a masterpiece. Leon A and Claire B, or Claire A and Leon B, matters not. Both scenarios are perfect and worth replaying. And when I do go back to play it (sometimes I even bust out my old PSP to re-play it, or even via the cloud on PS5), I have to do all four of them.
Marvel SNAP
The only "modern" game on my list is one that I should probably consider a minor addiction at this point. I've played Marvel Snap on Steam and on my phone for thousands of hours since it launched in October 2022, and I don't see myself stopping any time soon.
Marvel Snap admittedly pisses me off quite a bit. The game has issues with balance, progression, and microtransactions, but I'm an absolute sucker for Marvel and card games, so this one has had me by the throat for a while. I start just about every day pedaling on an exercise bike while playing Snap, doing daily missions and ranking up, or just messing around with new decks. I can't stop, and I don't want to stop (most of the time, anyway).
Even if I'm not at my desk, Snap is a few seconds away on my phone when I'm out. And I spent more money on it in the past than I should have, I've tempered that spending, and stick with monthly season passes that keep me coming back constantly.
Metal Gear Solid
When it comes down to it, Metal Gear Solid on the PS1 is still probably my favorite game of all time. It's a game I return to often to re-live the incredible voice acting, iconic boss fights, and memories that shaped me as the gamer I am today.
I have a ton of memories in MGS1, but this game gave birth to several more, including the rest of the series and just about everything else Hideo Kojima has done since (I have an Outer Heaven tattoo to showcase my love for the series). It means a lot to me, but even from an unbiased standpoint, MGS1 still stands the test of time as one of the best games ever made.
This is another game I can play just about anywhere, whether it's PS5, or even my Steam Deck thanks to the Master Collection that launched a couple years back. It's a quick game, beaten in just a few hours, but a lot of the time I like to sit back and let the Codec calls play.
The sound of Solid Snake's footsteps in the snow or on metal grated flooring is like ASMR to me. It's comforting. It's happy, and positive, and that's in short supply these days, so MGS1 is a game I will want to keep re-living forever.
Oh, did I mention that Groundhog Day is my birthday? And every year growing up, my mom used to ask me when I woke up, "did you see your shadow?" Yeah, I may be biased, but sharing the day with Phil is one of my favorite uninteresting tidbits about myself. Maybe I'll play some MGS1 or RE2 today for old time's sake.
And why not? Because Phil saw his shadow again this morning, meaning six more weeks of winter, so I may as well stay warm.

A life of solitude with your pet pig is thrown off course when a magic mushroom crash-lands on Earth. Forager by day, social recluse by night, Hermit and Pig must navigate society and help the townsfolk scrounge up some food, else chaos ensues.
It was an ordinary day for Hermit and Pig, who'd spend every morning scavenging for mushrooms and foraging truffles. That was until Mary showed up. After eating a blue mushroom (because why not?) Hermit and his only friend, Pig, journey into town and into the heart of a conspiracy that's quickly spiralling out of control. Everything wants to fight and talk to you. How will Hermit cope?
Hermit and Pig is a turn-based RPG focused on delivering a story-rich, compact narrative that is sure to bring a smile to those who journey with these wholesome companions. While the plot is rather generic and rarely expands beyond its surface, its story isn't the reason to keep playing.
The dialogue makes the game
Off the bat, it's clear Hermit and Pig has a distinct identity and so much character. Much like Frog Detective, Thank Goodness You're Here!, and Night in the Woods, Hermit and Pig is quirky, humorous, and packed with funny dialogue that keeps the adventure feeling light. Any form of tension is broken by light-heartedness, where the stakes continuously grow, but settle with comedic relief that tells us to never take what's happening too seriously. It's a pleasant reminder for those like myself, who struggle with social anxiety—that life truly isn't out to get you.
The dialogue and overall vibrant and cute art style immediately invite relaxation. Even without voice acting, every character has a distinct voice that's silly yet believable, and it strengthens the overarching story. The quirky characters and their interactions bring the otherwise still landscape to life. Quirkiness follows Hermit and Pig's dream sequences, which also remind me of Night in the Woods.
Keep moving, old friend
Hermit and Pig is very easy to digest with its design and core gameplay mechanics. The pacing and level design are simple but great, and the map is incredibly helpful at pointing out where you need to go without hand-holding. I'm not a huge side-quest fan and find it often breaks the immersion, but Hermit and Pig does a great job at blending quests together that it feels natural, fun, and certainly never tedious. It adds to the story's flow and makes backtracking engaging.
Hermit and Pig is packed to the brim with tiny details. Hermit holds quest items in front of him, he spreads his arms out to balance across wooden beams, pets Pig's head for 1HP, and sweats profusely when approaching a conversation. The soundtrack is awesome and very reminiscent of OG Crash Bandicoot. I almost feel tricked into enjoying Hermit and Pig for nostalgia is strong in this one, and I felt transported to my childhood while playing it.
Accessibility in combat
While this RPG lacks in secrets, there are Trinkets to find or barter, Mushrooms to cut, and Truffles to dig up. Speaking of core mechanics, Hermit and Pig has amazing combat options. Being able to simplify controls outside of changing the overall difficulty is an awesome feature I wish more games had. As enemy health bars get higher, the combat expands to give you new ways of fighting back, but it also means fighting gets easier. The UI is clean, and you have everything you could possibly need on the menu, which is super easy to navigate if you ever need a refresher.
I gave myself a disadvantage using a controller where the buttons didn't line up to what's shown on-screen, meaning I couldn't use any Special move at all without failing miserably (this is not a fault of the game). There is a slight learning curve with the arcadey fighting-game-inspired Combos and Specials that makes Hermit and Pig feel more like playing a WarioWare game than a Pokémon title, as reaction time and quick-thinking take precedent in every fight. Of course, you can remove the challenge altogether by either lowering the difficulty or simplifying the combat. Taking me seven hours to beat, I only felt the need to use Specials at the final boss fight, demonstrating Hermit and Pig's lacking difficulty.
There's also the Trinkets, Mushrooms, and Truffles. Trinkets give you combat buffs, Mushrooms act as healing or status effect items, and Truffles revive allies. There is a lot of RNG involved in fighting and logical thinking to figure out what attacks are effective, but I didn't find combat too much of a challenge, especially since I ignored Special moves (Granted, I did play on Normal difficulty). I'm sure, however, that Hermit the Pig isn't intended to be a difficult game.
Social anxiety simulator
Interestingly, you cannot outrun a single thing in this game (which is fitting as you're playing an elderly and anxious man). But Hermit and Pig is very forgiving and wants you to have fun—and fun you shall have. Save stations are found in abundance, meaning it's rare to go into a new fight with low health. It's highly unlikely you'll ever run out of Mushrooms, either, as you can get Pig to forage mid-fight, trade with vendors, or find them as you explore. I will say however, scripted fights should remove the Run feature as there's a moment in the game where I was meant to fight a bear but ran away, then NPCs immediately praised me for beating up a bear...
The anxiety aspect of this RPG is uniquely done with the socializing mechanic that behaves similarly to fight encounters. It breaks up the chaos of fighting with dialogue, where you must pick the most socially acceptable prompt, and you will lose 1HP for every time Hermit cringes at your words. While it's entertaining, it's also incredibly easy to complete these sections without losing any health, and they're always positioned near save points. I would have loved it if this mechanic had higher stakes, such as losing more HP, which then puts you at a disadvantage going into the next fight.
Though Hermit and Pig wants to deliver a story-rich experience, it is sorely lacking in replayability and is overall an easy game to beat if you disable the Combos mechanic. However, if you're looking for a cozy turn-based RPG that is a good time, then Hermit and Pig is an authentically entertaining experience from start to finish.

Of the leaked names so far, Doumbia and Olmo are expected to arrive as Flashback items. Like the first week, Team 2 will have special cards for active footballers and former legends. The cards released via SBCs and objectives will be easier to obtain as there's no element of luck. The Future Stars SBCs released so far have been significantly cheaper compared to what we had during TOTY.

Team 2 will directly replace the Team 1 cards, and they will be released on Friday, Feb. 6. The following countdown will expire once Team 2 cards are in packs.
The countdown is based on the following timings.
This has been the usual pattern that EA Sports has followed when it comes to promo releases. It will be interesting to see which names get leaked and who eventually makes it to the full launch.

Each map you can battle on in Marvel Rivals has quite a few special achievements tied to the location, most of which are fairly tricky to figure out. One such achievement is Well, That Got Weird..., which is part of the Museum of Contemplation.
All achievements only give you the name and a very short description to work off, so it's generally fairly tough to determine what each one is asking of you. If this mission has you stumped, here's how to complete the Well, That Got Weird... achievement in Marvel Rivals.

How to complete Well, That Got Weird... in Marvel Rivals
To get the Well, That Got Weird... achievement in Marvel Rivals, you need to accidentally transform the Bats Mobile in the Museum of Contemplation. This can be done by helping the convoy reach the second checkpoint while on the attacking side at this location.
Accidentally transform the Bats Mobile in the Museum of Contemplation in Marvel Rivals
There are quite a few steps to accidentally transforming the Bats Mobile in the Museum of Contemplation so you can earn the Well, That Was Weird... achievement. If you're struggling to get this one done, here's a full step-by-step walkthrough to help you through it.
As soon as you witness the convoy change forms while you're a member of the attacking team, you'll officially complete the Well, That Got Weird... achievement. You can see this transformation while on either team, but only members of the attacking team will actually get the trophy, so if you're not one, you'll have to keep trying until you are.
While you're exploring this location, you may also want to work on completing the Secret Stash achievement. There are also plenty of other trophies you can check off at other locations, like Days of Future Past, Arrako Goes Analog, Mutant and Proud!, and Whispers in Pieces.

BitLife regularly challenges you to complete obscure and rare tasks. One of the tougher missions you may encounter, especially when working through challenges, asks you to get a restraining order.
While some quests are fairly easy to figure out on your own, others are complex, and getting a restraining order is one such feat. This isn't a feature you likely run into often while playing, so if you're struggling to figure out what needs to be done, here's how to get a restraining order in BitLife.

How to have a restraining order filed against you in BitLife
The easiest way to get a restraining order is to harass someone into filing one against you. This is easiest to do with your exes, but can be done in any relationship, whether it be friendly, romantic, or otherwise.
To get a restraining order filed against you, click on the person you want to have file one. Then, select the Stalk option frequently. You can also choose the Call and Message options alongside this, selecting negative options like arguing with them to help speed the process along. Keep stalking and otherwise bothering them as much as you can.
If you keep at it, you'll eventually get a pop-up letting you know that the person you've been bugging has filed an order against you. How long it takes to get this pop-up varies, but as long as you don't give up, you will get it eventually. The specific time frame of each restraining order varies, but they have the same effect, which means you'll be instructed to break all contact with the individual who filed it going forward.
How to file a restraining order in BitLife
Filing a restraining order against someone else is a fairly tough task in BitLife, as it can only be done when certain events unfold. Specifically, you must have an ex or stalker who refuses to leave you alone. When this happens, you'll get a pop-up asking if you want to file a restraining order against them.
There's no way to file a restraining order against someone outside of this specific type of event, so it's not a feature you'll be able to make use of very often. If you're working through a challenge that tasks you with getting a restraining order, the best way to do so is by having one filed against you, typically by harassing an ex until they've had enough of your antics.
Restraining orders are a key part of the Crazy Ex challenge, so now that you know how to get one, you're ready to tackle this trial. And if you're looking for even more missions to work through, you may want to learn how to become a famous author, how to complete the Gatsby challenge, how to buy a Lamborghini, and how to complete the Bad Teacher challenge.

Nioh 3 could be your next big adventure in 2026 as the upcoming title goes live very soon on PC and console.
The third instalment in the saga, developed by Koei Tecmo, is available for pre-order as of writing. This guide will help you keep track of the upcoming launch so that you can jump right in when it goes live.
Nioh 3 countdown
Nioh 3 goes live worldwide on Feb. 5 (Feb. 6 in some regions). If you're on console, the release date is on Feb. 6 since it will follow the regional launch schedule. The following countdown will expire once the game goes live.
The countdown is based on the following timings.
This countdown is only applicable if you're planning to play Nioh 3 on PC. If you're on console, you'll need to wait for midnight in your region. This also means that the New Zealand method could get you a few extra hours of gameplay.
You can currently pre-order and pick between the Standard and the Digital Deluxe Edition. There's no advanced or early access, but the Digital Deluxe Edition offers the season pass that will include all post-launch DLC content. You also get a few extra purely cosmetic goodies. The main pull of the Digital Deluxe Edition is definitely the post-launch content (via the Season Pass).
If you're interested in checking out the game, a free demo is currently available. All your progress from the demo will carry over to the full launch, which is great. If you've already purchased Nioh 3, the demo will serve as your indirect advanced access.

Nioh 3 is just around the corner, but its character creator is already live, so we can spend untold hours crafting our perfect protagonist ahead of the actual launch.
We've compiled several of the most stunning characters made by the community so far, which, through the game's code system, can easily be shared and imported into any save game.
So, here's what we found.
Table of contents
The Best Nioh 3 Character Creation Codes
Dark, mysterious, otherworldly
This character, made by user HealSlut_Soraka, is a woman with otherworldly eyes, crimson and almost serpentine. The tattoos hint at a potential Yakuza background, a rough upbringing, and a passion for violence, as well as deadly skill with the sword, though her solemn expression does suggest a kinder, more vulnerable side. It's incredible how much character-building can be done by sculpting the looks alone.
William from Nioh 1
Nioh 1's protagonist was none other than William Adams, a real historical figure from old Britain who explored the world and somehow wound up in Japan. He became a Samurai, was the first British person in Japan, and ended up being a highly influential person in the country during the 1600s. Nioh bases a lot of its stories on actual events and utilizes many historical figures to tell its tales, so this recreation for Nioh 3 fits perfectly in context.
Venom Snake
Of course, whenever a game has a character creator, people will flock to it to recreate real people or characters from other games. Thus, user Dusty_Tibbins made Venom Snake, the main antagonist of Metal Gear and the protagonist of the now memed-to-death Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain (when you can't even say... my name).
Ciri
As with Venom Snake, it was almost guaranteed someone would try to recreate Witcher characters, and given Ciri's popularity in the wake of the upcoming The Witcher 4, this is unsurprising. The Ciri made by user nightE89 was labeled an "attempt," though I can guarantee that it'd be quite difficult to do much better than what they achieved here.
I'm the Joker, baby!
Fun and even ridiculous characters have become a staple of the Soulslike genre at this point. Just imagine what sort of ludicrous stuff people used to make in Dark Souls 1 and even the later games, because fidgeting with the sliders would produce wilder and wilder results the more you flicked them back and forth. The tradition continues in Nioh 3, with this Joker recreation being just as funny as you'd imagine.
