What is the Street Fighter 6 SiRN code? Partway through Chapter 13-4 of the World Tour story mode, you'll make your way up the SiRN building for a second time. As you climb to the 7th floor of R&D, you'll see Grace, a scientist with red hair, who gives you a math puzzle to solve.

The Street Fighter 6 SiRN code you are looking for is the solution to the math problem 2 ^ 6 x 3 x 643. It's worth completing this puzzle as soon as you see it, as you probably don't want to climb the tower again, and the reward is one of the coveted Street Fighter 6 World Tour upgrades. This will make the fighting game's story mode easier, as using it permanently increases your health.

Though your character is technically a good person, World Tour forces you to interact with a number of criminal gangs, including the Mad Gear Gang.

Thrasher is the leader of the Mad Gear Gang, the biggest crime syndicate in Metro City. While Thrasher and his crew tend to hang out in the same place in the fighting game, you may not be able to find them depending on the time of day.

     Where to find all Street Fighter 6 World Tour characters

Where are all the Street Fighter 6 World Tour characters? The main roster of Capcom's latest fighting game are essentially mentors in the World Tour mode. By meeting them, you can learn their fighting style, as well as some of their special moves and super arts. Since you can have multiple mentors, your custom fighter can combine multiple specials from different sources. If you want to give your fighter a random Spinning Piledriver move on top of Ryu's moves, you can do so, provided you have enough special move slots available.

However, learning from your potential favorite Street Fighter 6 World Tour characters is tricky if they are one of the more elusive ones to find. As you progress through the fighting game's story mode, you'll meet up with the bulk of the Street Fighter 6 roster in Metro City and other locations across the world. However, some require you to complete specific side quests or only appear after a certain point in the main story. So, to help you find the Street Fighter 6 fighter that you want the most, we've scoured the globe to locate them and popped their locations on a list.

     All Street Fighter 6 World Tour upgrades

Where are all of the Street Fighter 6 World Tour upgrades? Once enemies start hitting you significantly harder than you can damage them in World Tour, that means it's time to level up and seek out upgrades. One reason for this is that you need to complete sidequests or find hidden caches to get permanent upgrade items, which increase your health, the power of your punches, kicks, unique moves and throws, and even your blocking ability.

In order to gain an advantage in the fighting game's single-player mode, you need to go hunting for treasure. Getting some of the Street Fighter 6 World Tour upgrades is as simple as completing side quests, but there are plenty of them hidden in hard-to-reach chests that require you to visit the Street Fighter 6 World Tour characters and learn their moves. We highly recommend you get at least Chun-Li and Ken's master arts before properly hunting down these stat buffs in Street Fighter 6.

Who are all of the main Street Fighter 6 voice actors? Chances are that you won't immediately tweak who these voices are or where you've heard them before, but as soon as someone tells you, you have that moment of enlightenment. This is especially the case for Street Fighter 6, as several names of voice actors sound very familiar, but we couldn't immediately place them.

So to highlight these talented individuals, we thought we'd list all the Street Fighter 6 voice actors. In addition, the fighting game has a sizeable roster of in-game commentary voices that react to the action during every match. Please note that we only focus on the English voice actors for the Street Fighter 6 roster and some key characters from the World Tour story mode. This is because there are over 30 characters and voices for each, so the list is expansive already. That said, we will list all the Street Fighter 6 commentators for all languages. With that caveat in mind, let's get to the list:

     Diablo 4 rarity levels – item colors and affixes explained

What are the Diablo 4 item rarity levels? Not all items are created equal in Diablo 4, and there's a lot of loot to sift through on your journey across Sanctuary. Thankfully, Blizzard has continued Diablo's long-standing tradition of splitting items into tiers of color-coded rarity, a system that's withstood the test of time – and one which you've likely seen crop up in many other games.

Equipment is a core component of Diablo 4, and the rarity of your weapons and armor is directly tied to your progression in the hellish ARPG. We've grouped the Diablo 4 rarity levels by their corresponding color, along with the number of affixes you can expect to find at each tier. We highly recommend pairing this with our primer to the Diablo 4 loot system, which delves into item effects, runewords, and more.

These skills were nerfed since the beta, but they still make up most of the best Sorcerer build.

With Diablo 4 now out, you're no doubt planning which class to choose. There are five Diablo 4 classes to pick from, with the sorcerer the obvious choice for any wannabe mage.

The Rogue can output a lot of physical damage while staying nimble enough in a battle so as to not take damage - perfect for taking on Lilith's hordes.

We've perfected a Diablo 4 Rogue build that focuses on Cold Imbuement; utilizing the Rogue's core skills in tandem with the freezing power of Cold means that whatever doesn't die immediately will be frozen in place.

     Best Diablo 4 Barbarian build

What is the best Diablo 4 Barbarian build? After a rocky performance in earlier beta tests, the Diablo 4 Barbarian received a slew of balance changes that may leave you feeling unsure how to spec at launch. Thankfully, our best build rises to the occasion, and – in our experience – puts all other builds to shame.

Of course, our hunt to find the best Diablo 4 Barbarian build necessitated many hours of testing in Sanctuary, where we got to grips with all the changes to the RPG game's well-loved classes. While the Barbarian's kit has received a bit of a shake-up with the introduction of the arsenal system, it's still the dedicated melee class we know and love. That said, Diablo 4 skill trees are as versatile as they've ever been, and it's easy to spec into a sluggish skill rotation. To avoid that, here's the best Diablo 4 Barbarian build if you're looking to get your hands dirty in potentially one of the best PC games of this year.

     Best Diablo 4 Druid build

What is the best Diablo 4 Druid build? If you decide to get your grubby little paws dirty with the Druid class, you should know that this bestial class has dominion over the elements and spirit animals that join their cause. However, their main method of attack is to indulge their savage side and shift into a Werebeast to tear their demonic foes to shreds. Of all the classes in the series, they're perhaps the most underused, but Diablo 4 makes an effort to make them appealing.

To stand a chance against the forces of evil, you'll need to make the best Diablo 4 Druid build. We now have a good idea of the many options for weapons, armor, and skills that will be available in the full game. Skills for one of the strongest Diablo 4 classes can lead you in several directions, with wolves, ravens, and even plant monsters among the companions on offer. Nature also governs the Druid's magic skills, with the best of them having domain over earth, wind, and lightning elements. Here are some pointers to send you in the right direction before the release date rolls around.

In order to make the best Necromancer build, we've worked out which of the many weapons and armor available in Diablo 4 complement the Necromancer skills with the best synergy.

Chun-Li Global Twitch Emote Launches

Ahead of Street Fighter 6's debut, Chun-Li is showing up on Twitch with a special emote. The company revealed a new global emote that anyone can use. All someone needs to do is type "NiceTry" into the chat box. (You can also put in :NiceTry, if you want to bring up a list and pick it out.) This will prompt the new emoji of the Street Fighter icon to appear.

Here's a trailer announcing the Chun-Li global Twitch emote, showing how it looks alongside footage of her fighting in Street Fighter 6.

This isn't the only piece of Street Fighter 6 "art" appearing alongside the game's launch. The official Capcom Artworks Twitter account shared a clean copy of the Famitsu issue 1800 cover art. Moyuku Kamimoku drew the image for the commemorative issue, which also featured a special feature on the game.

Street Fighter 6 will come to the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC on June 2, 2023, and it will also eventually appear in arcades.

Square Enix Store Canceled Final Fantasy XVI Steelbook Orders

At the end of May 2023, the Square Enix Store opened up pre-orders for the Final Fantasy XVI Steelbook, with the listing suggesting it was $0, plus about $10 shipping. Now those that placed the order are getting cancellation emails noting the listing went up in error. As a refund for the cost of shipping, those who ordered one of the cases will instead get a $10 coupon code. That can be used until November 30, 2023 on "any in-stock game." [Thanks, Wario64 and SharkerTeeth!]

Here's the email one customer received mentioning the error.


Another Twitter user by the name of Dashey10 noted the code could be used on a digital game, rather than a physical one.

As a reminder, that Final Fantasy XVI Steelbook case that appeared on the Square Enix online storefront appeared to be the same one being offered with Best Buy pre-orders. It featured a close up of Clive's face on the front. Best Buy's site still notes the offer is available, though it is while supplies last. The Deluxe and Collector's physical copies also come with a Steelbook case.

Final Fantasy XVI will come to the PlayStation 5 on June 22, 2023. There will be a six month exclusivity period, and it seems a PC version will appear after that.

Everybody 1-2 Switch Actually Getting Released new joy-cons

Back in June 2022, Fanbyte noted that Nintendo worked on a 1-2 Switch sequel that never saw the light of day. Now, the company announced that Everybody 1-2 Switch will release both digitally and physically on June 30, 2023. On that same day, Nintendo will also release four new pastel Joy-Con variants.

There's no preliminary trailer for it. However, as with the original Switch launch game, it involves using Joy-Cons in an active way to play minigames with minimalistic graphics. It will also be sold both digitally and physically, with copies costing $29.99. There are no details about what sorts of minigames will appear or how many. The announcement only cited "a mix of games and modes." It also noted that players could use either Joy-Cons or phones to play the games on teams, with the eShop listing saying someone would need internet access and a Nintendo Account on a phone.

Only one screenshot appears on the eShop listing, which you can see below. The original game tended to feature actual video footage of people performing certain actions to show players how they should react to play minigames.

Change FPS Diablo IV

Like most modern games, Diablo IV will allow you change the framerate (FPS) the game runs at through it's settings menu. This includes both foreground and background FPS. So if you are noticing that when you tab out of the game, it runs at a significantly lower framerate, this guide will break down how to change both FPS settings in Diablo IV.

Access your options menu and go to the "Graphics" section. Under the "Performance" tab, you will find both the "Max Foreground" and "Max Background" FPS options. Here you can manually adjust what FPS the game is running out when you are tabbed in or tabbed out of the game. This is especially good for streamers to mess with if they will be playing the game in Windowed Mode.

Additionally, if Diablo IV is taxing your PC (especially while fighting World Bosses), you can manually assign a framerate ideal for your rig through this option. However, you cannot input a number and instead will need to play around with the sliders to set your preferred frame rate.

Change FPS Diablo IV

If you want audio to play in the background while you are tabbed out of the game head to the "Sounds" tab and under "Game Sound Output" check the "Play in Background" option. This will allow for audio from the game to play even if it is isn't the main window you currently have open.

Diablo IV is available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox One.

Diablo IV Extract Aspect

Extracting Aspects is an extremely valuable feature in Diablo IV. This allows for players to effectively obtain passive effects from Legendary items, to then reapply them to an item of their choice. In order to Extract Aspects in Diablo IV, players will need to speak to an Occultist and have a Legendary item that they would like to break down. The first Occultist can be found in Kyovashad, which is the first city you will access once you have beaten the Prologue.

What makes this feature so valuable is the ability to apply any Extracted Aspect to any item of their choice, as mentioned above. This means that the item does not need to be a Legendary in order for you to apply said aspect. In fact, applying an Aspect to a Legendary item will overwrite the one currently applied to it. So it is best to save your Legendary items for their Aspects to be extracted and then applied to other pieces of equipment. Additionally, applying a Legendary Aspect extracted from an item can only be applied once. However, if you are applying an Aspect from a Codex of Power, you can imprint that Aspect onto any item indefinitely.

Diablo IV Extract Aspect

You can apply these aspects to Rare items to then make them Legendary items, for example. So don't be afraid to Extract Aspects through your local Occultist, as this gives players a more accessible way to create builds of their choosing. However, making a Rare item a Legendary item will not increase it's power. So ideally, finding a Rare item with a significantly higher power than your Legendary item, and then applying said Aspect is the best way to go.

Diablo IV is available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox One.
