     Fall Guys players claim they've been

Fall Guys players are reporting a bug in the game's customisations and cosmetics shop, whereby the premium currency Show Bucks, which is purchased using real money, is being deducted from their accounts even though they have only previewed and not confirmed to buy any items.

In a thread on Reddit, players described feeling "robbed" by the bug, which supposedly results in items being inadvertently or erroneously purchased, depending on a variety of different actions while browsing the Fall Guys shop. In some cases, as apparently evidenced in a video clip, items are automatically purchased when players are simply previewing them.

     This Minecraft Redstone for Dummies video explains everything

Minecraft Redstone is, in our professional opinion, very complicated. While the basic theory behind it is simple enough, the sheer volume of things you can achieve with it, and the number of mechanisms involved in those things, means it's hard to understand for newcomers. That's not the case for these three Redstone masters.

     Diablo Immortal fans slam underwhelming Hungering Moon event

Diablo Immortal fans are expressing continued disappointment in the live support for the RPG game in response to the Diablo Immortal Hungering Moon event. The event, which runs July 15-17, tasks players with completing seven tasks to earn 'moon blessings' - with a special reward promised to players of the fantasy game who complete all seven.

However, the reward in question is already leaving fans feeling very underwhelmed. "The Moon's Favour," as it turns out, translates into one of the game's legendary crests used to earn gems in its elder rifts, three rare crests, and 25 Aspirant's keys. The one lonely legendary crest on offer is of the normal variety, too, rather than the premium eternal legendary crest type.

Fans on the game's subreddit are expressing disbelief at "how extremely few legendary crests they are willing to give out." One fan even references the Diablo Immortal season two battle pass, which was also hailed as disappointing, saying that "they had to take one [legendary crest] out of the battle pass in order to give us one in the event."

     This Stray backpack turns your cat into a cosplayer

Stray, the upcoming sci-platformer where you play a lost cat wandering through a dystopian city, launches on July 19, and what better way to mark the occasion than transforming your own furry pal into a stylish, but probably quite confused, feline cosplayer, courtesy of this new tie-in backpack and harness.

Oh yes. Your cat will be the slightly weird-looking envy of the neighbourhood, as they slink their stuff in this brand-new Stray merch. It's all down to Travel Cat, which has teamed up with developer BlueTwelve to bring videogames and cats, no doubt two of life's greatest joys, closer together than ever.

We're going to start with the harness, a direct replica of the one worn by the eponymous stray, which also comes with reflectors and a leash, just in case your cat tries to stroll off to find a sidequest.

     Dead by Daylight potentially getting custom maps next patch

Dead by Daylight patch 6.1 could mark the arrival of customisable maps, with a new video from the multiplayer horror's official Twitter showing a reworked MacMillan Estate, just weeks after players speculated on changes in the public test build.

Home to The Trapper, the cleaver-wielding, bear-trap laying killer farmer, who launched with the original game in 2016, the MacMillan Estate appears to have some additional or altered maze tiles – the generic, environmental components used to build Dead by Daylight's realms – bringing more palettes, hiding cupboards, and windows for survivors to jump through.

Dead by Daylight maze tiles come in various forms, and are often referred to as "gyms". A "palette" gym is a C-shaped section of wall with an obstacle survivors can drop to slow down a pursuing killer; a "jungle gym" is so named because it allows for the greatest amount of movement, containing both an obstacle, and a window that survivors can pass through to evade their would-be murderer.

     Overwatch 2 beta patch nerfs Junker Queen, Sojourn, and Zen

New Overwatch 2 beta patch notes from Blizzard reveal details for the FPS game's July 14 update, and it's bad news for fans of series newcomers Junker Queen and Sojourn. The patch also sees a nerf for support hero Zenyatta, while buffs have arrived for more maligned heroes including Doomfist, Orisa, and Symmetra.

First up is brash Aussie Junker Queen, the latest in the series of new Overwatch 2 heroes. The latest addition to the tank roster has already been stirring things up on the field, as anyone taking part in the beta can attest, but she's being pulled back a little bit.

The primary target is her Commanding Shout buff ability, which has had its radius decreased from 20 to 15 metres. In addition, the bonus health applied to allies now decays over the duration, somewhat like the effect of Lucio's ultimate Sound Barrier - but its maximum duration has been increased from 4 to 5 seconds to compensate. Her ultimate, Rampage, has also had its radius reduced from 6 to 5 metres to make it slightly less all-encompassing.

     GTA 6 release date rumours, news, and speculation

Looking for a roundup of GTA 6 release date speculation? Considering it's been nearly nine years since GTA V was released and the sixth game is barely more than rumours at this point, it's hard to say. The rule of thumb used to be that Rockstar released new entries to the GTA franchise every four or five years - but by that logic GTA 6 should have released in late 2017, and we'd currently be playing GTA 7.

In all likelihood, the GTA 6 release date is still a couple of years away. We're hoping for some news soon, as our insatiable appetite for biting satire and a good carjacking knows no bounds. The previous Grand Theft Auto game was almost inconceivably massive and entertaining, with sales numbers off the charts, and player numbers remain impressive. Rockstar has little need to hurry. While you wait, we've rounded up all the latest GTA 6 rumours in one place.

felix dimitri figures fire emblem three houses

Good Smile Company has released the next set of Fire Emblem: Three Houses Pop Up Parade figures, with Dimitri and Felix taking the spotlight this time. Like the previous Edelgard and Bernadetta figures, they will appear as they do in the Academy chapters when they are students at the monastery. Both figures are available for pre-order until August 17, 2022. They will come out in Japan in November 2022 and in North America in February 2023.

Like other Pop Up Parade figures, you will not be able to change the pose or face plates. Both stand at approximately 18 centimeters in height. The Fire Emblem: Three Houses Dimitri figure has him standing with his legs somewhat apart. His blue cape billows behind him, either from his own movement or the wind. He will cost 4,800 JPY/$35.99.

Felix is standing with his hand on his hips as if he is hanging around the training grounds. As he does not wear a cape, you can clearly see the sword he has on his belt. Like Dimitri, he will cost 4,800 JPY or $35.99.

In August 2022, Good Smile Company will release the final set of Fire Emblem: Three Houses Pop Up Parade figures. Following up on the Black Eagles from last month and the Blue Lions in July 2022, you will be able to order the Golden Deer duo of Claude and Lysithea.

The Fire Emblem: Three Houses Dimitri and Felix Pop Up Parade figures are available for pre-order until August 17, 2022.

gundam witch from mercury

A new trailer for Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury is now available online. It is just under a minute long and gives a look at the art style and animation, as well as some of the characters. There is little dialogue in the trailer, focusing mostly on teasing who will show up and how it will look.

The text that appears in both the trailer and the announcement tweet can be translated to "The witch will spur on the Gundam."

You can watch the trailer here:

https://twitter.com/G_Witch_M/status/1547554048056111105

Hiroshi Kobayashi (Spriggan) and Ryo Ando (One Punch Man) are on the project as directors. Meanwhile, Naohiro Ogata (Mobile Suit Gundam: Thunderbolt) is the producer and Ichiro Okouchi (Devilman Crybaby) is the writer. Takashi Ohmama (Phantasy Star Online 2: The Animation) provides the music.

So far, we know two members of the cast. Kana Ichinose (Dr. Stone) will voice protagonist Suletta Mercury. Suletta is the timid pilot of the Gundam Aerial, and she is from Mercury. Lynn (Engage Kiss) will voice Miorine Rembran, who is a beautiful second-year student in management strategy. It seems that this will be the first mainline Mobile Suit Gundam series featuring a female protagonist.

Mobile Suit: Gundam: The Witch from Mercury will come out in October 2022 in Japan.

resident evil 2 remake sales

Sales for Resident Evil 2 Remake have, as of July 14, 2022, reached over 10 million units worldwide. This number includes digital and physical copies over the various platforms the game is on. The game debuted on January 25, 2019, which means that it achieved this milestone in a little over three years. This also means that, with 10 million sales, Resident Evil 2 Remake has sold more copies than the original game.

https://twitter.com/dev1_official/status/1547446134385176577

The tweet announcing the sales for Resident Evil 2 Remake looks like the results screen after finishing the campaign. It also includes thanks to the Resident Evil fans who supported the game and series the entire way. At the bottom of the screen, where a letter grade for how well the player performed during their run appears, Capcom has graded this achievement an "SSS."

Resident Evil 2 originally came out in 1998, following then-rookie cop Leon Kennedy and the first game's protagonist's sister Clair Redfield in Raccoon City after a viral outbreak transformed the city's human and animal population. The remake boasts improved graphics and controls and is a relatively faithful retelling of the original game. It was well-received, earning honors such as being nominated for Game of the Year in 2019.

Resident Evil 2 Remake is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and Windows PC.
