Netflix's latest foray into animated video game adaptations is a new spin on Devil May Cry, Capcom's excellent series of character action games that kicked off in 2001. And even though the show represents a reboot of the continuity that lets the uninitiated pick things up at the beginning, it's still deeply rooted in…

     Best VR games 2025

What are the best VR games? When it comes to VR games, we're entering a golden era, kickstarted by the release of the Meta Quest 3. That being said, if you have any major VR gaming headset, you can play the vast majority of these games, all of which, we think, are the best advertisement for virtual reality.

While there are many experiences out there, we're going to be more choosy, handpicking the top ones to play using the best VR headset options. After all, we only have room for the best VR games, and there've been some fantastic ones in the past year alone. If you'd rather keep your face in front of a traditional monitor, we'd point you towards the best PC games, which need just a simple old PC and none of this fancy goggles business.

     Where to buy 5070 - Nvidia RTX 5070 stock guide

Trying to find out where to buy the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 GPU? Well, we're here to help you. We've checked the virtual store shelves of retailers around the world to find where Nvidia's latest mid-range gaming GPU is either in stock, available for pre-order, or where you can set up stock notifications for the new graphics card.

Although our RTX 5070 review showed it to be a card that doesn't offer the best bang per buck compared to the performance we saw from AMD in our RX 9070 XT review, it's still the best graphics card option from Nvidia in this price range, even if the company's claims the RTX 5070 offers RTX 4090 performance don't really hold up to scrutiny.

Meanwhile, with the RTX 5070 release date now upon us, stock of the GPU is often extremely limited. As such, you'll have to be lightning fast to grab one, if you don't want to pay inflated prices from scalpers buying the cards from trusted retailers, only to then resell them on the likes of eBay.

The official RTX 5070 price is $549 / $549 CAD / £549 / AU$1,109 for the Founders Edition card, so that's the price you should be hoping to pay for Nvidia's own stylish model. Other overclocked cards from the likes of Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, Palit, PNY, and Zotac might demand more, but that's the ballpark figure you should expect to pay for a standard, stock speed card.

     Every Black Ops 6 Zombies easter egg

What are the BO6 Zombies easter eggs? Over the years, it's become less of a secret that Call of Duty's Zombies mode has hidden puzzles and quests. These easter eggs can do anything from uncovering fun secrets, like musical tracks, to unlocking some of the games most powerful weaponry.

In the latest Black Ops Zombies adventure, you can discover a metal soundtrack, turn yourself into a superhero, and even craft certain Black Ops 6 Wonder Weapons, well known to be among the best available in the zombie game. You can always look for these Black Ops 6 secrets yourself, but if you'd rather someone else did the hard work for you, well, you're welcome.

     Black Ops 6 Zombies maps list

What are all the Black Ops 6 Zombies maps? Round-based Zombies is back with a bang, and we're loving it. Following the two fantastic maps available at launch, Citadelle Des Morts was added to the roster with the launch of Season 1 Reloaded, and The Tomb arrived with Season 2. Most recently, Shattered Veil materialized with Season 3.

The five BO6 Zombies maps available in the zombie game feature operators from Black Ops Cold War as their story continues six years later with some new faces along for the ride. You can play as any of the BO6 operators, but we recommend picking one specially made for the Black Ops 6 Zombie mode, as they feature special voice lines. Whoever you choose, here's everything you need to know about where they'll be taking you.

What are the new Genshin Impact codes? Gathering Primogems and Mora in Genshin Impact can be quite the grind. Fortunately, developer Hoyoverse occasionally sends out gifts in the form of Genshin redeem codes. Most codes only work for a limited time, so it's best to redeem them as soon as possible to avoid missing out.

Genshin Impact codes are released periodically, frequently appearing in Hoyoverse special programs: regular video updates detailing future updates to the free PC game. Redeem codes can also drop to celebrate milestones or to coincide with new Genshin Impact events. You can find all the active Genshin codes for April 2025 below, and we also detail what they get you, how to redeem them, and where you can look for more.

April 3, 2025: We have three new Super League Soccer codes to use this week.

What are the new Super League Soccer codes? This new footy game on the Roblox platform lets you take up any role on the field, be it a goalkeeper, a striker, a midfielder, or any other position on the 7v7 lineup your team might be lacking.

     Is Fortnite shutting down in 2025?

Is Fortnite shutting down? The long-running battle royale shooter has been going through some changes as of late. Price increases to V-Bucks, internal layoffs at Epic, and reports of unmet financial expectations and projections appear to paint a rather volatile picture for Fortnite. Of course, it's still one of the biggest games in the world, but is it at risk of shutting down?

Fortnite still receives regular updates, and thanks to the launch of creative mode tools, the community appears to be thriving. Nevertheless, recent news does have industry experts questioning whether the battle royale game has the legs to continue as a top dog in the online multiplayer space. Here's what you need to know about whether Fortnite is shutting down, based on up-to-date information.

     Southwest Florida codes April 2025

April 3, 2025: We've torn our new rubber to shreds drifting the track for new Southwest Florida codes.

What are the latest Southwest Florida codes? In this RPG, you can become whoever you want to be. More often than not, though, the goal is to earn enough cash to buy the best ride that money can buy. Some codes will give you more than enough to afford a new car, while others will put you closer to buying your dream vehicle.

To afford this lifestyle, you'll need cold, hard cash, and with these Southwest Florida codes, you'll have plenty to spend on nice cars in this Roblox experience. Of course, there are other similar games available, so if you'd rather take to the crime-filled streets, we have all the current Da Hood codes and Pet Simulator 99 codes. Or if you prefer something a little more chill, then these Berry Avenue codes may help you get the best outfit.

April 3, 2025: We've had another look around the arenas for new Slap Battles codes and gloves.

What are the new Slap Battles codes? In this Roblox experience, the only thing that matters is getting the most slaps. For each one you get, you can work your way closer to having the most destructive palm in the galaxy.

So, if you want to have the most powerful slapping hand, you'll need to work for it. There are plenty of other Roblox experiences out there if this one loses its appeal, and we have the latest freebies for the likes of Blade Ball codes, Anime Last Stand codes, and Toilet Tower Defense codes. Without further ado, these Slap Battles codes will give you a bit of a boost to get started.

This relatively secretive Roblox brawler is gearing up for a big release, and its dynamic camera and fancy footwork already have it feeling like a beat-'em-up poised for the big leagues.

Ready your fists and challenge anyone in this Roblox arena to a punching match. Stand your ground, stay on your toes, and keep your head in the game. And if you can't quite cut it, we have plenty of Shindo Life codes for you to use instead, with Blox Fruits codes and King Legacy codes available if you're more of a pirate than a ninja.

     Pet Simulator 99 codes April 2025

April 3, 2025: The Hunt may be over, but the search for new Pet Simulator 99 codes continues.

What are the new Pet Simulator 99 codes? If you're lucky (and timely), getting a bunch of free gems in Big Games' 2023 pet collecting game can be as easy as typing a few letters into a box. We expect PS99 codes to become increasingly rare as time goes on, perhaps even being tied solely to physical merch like plushies, lucky bags, and playsets. We've seen it happen before.

Pet Simulator 99 is the third Pet Simulator Roblox game from Preston and Big GAmes. Though it hasn't replaced Pet Simulator X codes directly, it gets the big updates these days. If leaving your old collection behind doesn't sound fun, consider checking out Blade Ball codes or Blox Fruits codes instead.

However, it's not always easy to know where to find ones that work.

So, if you want to give your little pollinators a helping hand, we have many tried and tested active Bee Swarm Simulator codes to redeem that give you valuable free items and boosts. We also have freebies for other popular Roblox games, including Blade Ball codes, Blox Fruits codes, and Murder Mystery 2 codes to help you get ahead.

April 3, 2025: Show off those pearly whites with a big grin via this week's new Berry Avenue code.

What are the new Berry Avenue codes? Rather than being a conventional Roblox game that uses tower defense, RPG, or shooting game-style mechanics, Berry Avenue is a playground where you can buy a house, work a job, or drive around without a care in the world looking fabulous.

However, you may have noticed that everyone else looks much more stylish than most Roblox experiences. Is this because of the time they spent playing the roleplay sandbox game or perhaps linked to how much they paid in real-world money? While you're here, you should know that we also keep lists of Blox Fruits codes, King Legacy codes, and Anime Adventures codes to get you some free items and rolls for those games.

When codes for free items or boosts are thrown into the mix, though, the experience for Pets Go will get even better.

Just like when using Pet Simulator 99 codes or Pet Catchers codes, the opportunity to grab free rewards for Go should add even more fun to the pet-tapping RNG experience. For Roblox players searching for the latest Pets Go codes, this is the guide for you.

Brookhaven offers a ton of freedom, so there are no pesky limitations to sidestep – you can snap up new houses and tear up the tarmac with various cars and bikes.

April 3, 2025: We've tip-toed around the place looking for new MM2 codes for April Fools.

What are the newest Murder Mystery codes? Roblox games rarely throw up an intense experience as is offered by MM2, a game where you could be saddled with one of three roles; the murderer, a bystander, or the sheriff. The murderer has to, well, murder. The bystanders have to avoid the wrath of said murderer, and the sheriff has to figure out, and eliminate, the bad person. Sound familiar?

This Roblox game is more cerebral than most, which means you'll rely on your wits most of the time. Still, having a helping hand in the form of some freebies via MM2 codes never hurts. Blade Ball codes shouldn't be ignored if you're after other gifts. We also have Project Mugetsu codes and Blox Fruits codes that can help you grind those long-tail adventure games.

In every round of GTFO, you're dragged gasping from a cryo-coffin and dropped into the bowels of an enormous laboratory by a horrible pincer-crane. Reaching your appointed floor, you're asked to hack terminals and reach waypoints while trying not to rouse a sleeping population of mutants. It's a terrible fate, but as your turrets run out of bullets and the bipedal lampreys overwhelm your friends, you can take consolation in the knowledge that there are no microtransactions - for when 10 Chambers launched the early access version in 2019, they promised to release all DLC for free. "There but for the grace of God go I," you can say, thinking with a shudder of games like Overwatch, while the Shadows tear your head from your body.

No such consolation awaits players of 10 Chambers' forthcoming Den of Wolves, a cyberpunk co-op heist shooter in the tradition of Payday 2. According to audio director Simon Viklund , the game will "most likely" have microtransactions, for the simple reason that the studio is now 10 times bigger than when they launched GTFO, and needs to make more money. Don't be entirely depressed, however – there will be no "maths-fuckery", no pay to win, and no "buckazoids".

The folks who made roleplaying musical Stray Gods have announced they're working on a new arcane deckbuilder in which you play a "former priest turned exorcist and demon hunter". The game is called Malys and (as with the studio's previous game) it's being led by former Dragon Age writer David Gaider, which probably means a bunch of magical sarcasm and harrowing deaths. It's very early days though - the game hasn't yet launched a planned Kickstarter.

Jokes aside, you'd have to be a pretty big dork to think that the world isn't wide enough for both handheld PCs and traditional consoles like the Nintendo Switch 2 (even if the latter is hogging a new FromSoft game). Partly because they are, to an extent, ingrained in each other, via the classic hardware marketplace of borrowed ideas: there's probably no Steam Deck without the original Switch, and I'd bet my own mousing hand that the Switch 2's optical sensor-packing Joy Cons are inspired by the Lenovo Legion Go.

No doubt the manufacturers behind portable PCs watched the Switch 2's Nintendo Direct showcase and began furiously scribbling notes on what they could crib, be it the magnetic clip-on peripherals, the fan-equipped dock, or whatever internal wizardry that seemingly lets it run Final Fantasy VII Rebirth at 1080p. Fine by me. Just please don't, whatever you do, follow Nintendo's lead of trying to plaster over games with the gurning, disembodied heads of our friends and families.

Rear Patio in Black Ops 6 Shattered Veil

The Shattered Veil map in Black Ops 6 allows you to obtain an empty canister, which can be converted into an explosive variant.

The process begins with obtaining an empty canister and then taking it to the correct place to fill it up. The full activity is part of the main quest, but this guide will help you to learn about all the steps. The harder task is finding the canister, as the game doesn't elaborately tell you about the location.

Before we proceed, there are reportedly three canisters to find, and they are required to get upgrades for the Ray Gun Mark 2. Once I find more canisters and their spots, this guide will be updated.

How to get the empty canister in Shattered Veil of Black Ops 6?

To get an empty canister in Shattered Veil, you'll need to use an LT53 Kazimir Tactical at a designated spot. The spot can be found near the Rear Patio area, situated just behind the Double Tap Perk machine. To make it easier for you, I have marked the spot where you need to be.

Rear Patio location in Black Ops 6 Shattered Veil
Screenshot via Destructoid

Once you get to the spot, use the LT53 Kazimir Tactical at the spawn area. It will create a black hole; wait for it to get over. Don't try to interact with it since you will be teleported to a random position on the map, and your tactical will go to waste.

Once the black hole is over, you will find an empty canister at the spot (where you used the tactical). Pick it up to add to your inventory. I have also added a detailed section on how to get the LT53 Kazimir Tactical, but let's find out how to fill the canister.

How to fill the canister in Black Ops 6

Head to the spawn area after obtaining the canister, and again, I have marked the correct location. At the location, you'll find a machine that interacts with the canister. An Abomination will spawn the moment you interact with the machine, so be very careful.

Machine to fill canister in Black Ops 6 Shattered Veil
Screenshot via Destructoid

You'll come across a few small rocks at this spot. Use the Abomination's beam attacks to light up the rocks. If the attacks land successfully, the rock will have a blue glow on it. The next part involves luring the Abomination to attack the charged rocks.

Canister filling location in Black Ops 6
Screenshot via Destructoid

The rocks will start floating in the air once the Abomination hits it. Repeat the process for all three rocks, and it will start the following event: "Prevent Vermin from disrupting the energy siphon."

Go back to the machine, and your empty canister will be explosive. The item can then be used as required.

How to get the LT53 Kazimir Tactical in Black Ops 6

There are different ways of obtaining and using an LT53 Kazimir Tactical.

Crafting Table in Black Ops 6
Screenshot via Destructoid

  • Equip it in your initial loadout before starting a fresh game.
  • Craft the item using a Crafting Table.
  • Get it from the Armory using a Loot Key.

The second method is the easiest one, as long as you have 1,500 Salvage. The Crafting Table is also located in the Rear Patio area, so you won't need to travel far. The Loot Key can be obtained by eliminating the Elder Disciple, who spawns at Round 16.

marshadow in pokemon go

Marshadow is finally available globally in Pokémon Go thanks to the new "A Striking Shadow" Special Research questline that was added on April 3, 2025. By completing six groups of tasks, trainers can get a bunch of items, and encounters, and end with a Marshadow encounter.

If you already own Marshadow though from the 2024 Go Fest event, you won't be able to get another Marshadow to your collection and will instead be gifting candy to boost your Marshadow up, which kind of sucks, to be honest, if you got a low stat Marshadow and were hoping to get a better stat one this time for the Battle League.

Also remember, as Marshadow is considered a Mythical Pokémon, you cannot trade it. So you are stuck with whatever Fighting Ghost-type you get at the end of your journey.

All Tasks and Rewards for A Striking Shadow in Pokémon Go

There is currently no way to get a Shiny Marshadow in-game, though it'll likely be added in the future as part of some kind of event or a part of a future Go Tour like previous Shiny Mythical Pokémon such as Mew, Jirachi, and Celebi to name a few.

Either way, most of the challenges this time are pretty easy and in theory, you could finish them all in a day or two, so hopefully it won't be long until you add Marshadow to your party and continue your quest to complete your Pokédex.

As part of the Stunning Styles event on April 3, 2025, Paldean Tauros was finally added into Pokémon Go—albeit as a regional exclusive.

Paldean Tauros is unique in that it has three different forms. There is the standard Combat Breed, which is a pure Fighting-type, but there is also a Fighting Fire-type Blaze Breed form and a final Fighting Water-type Aqua Breed form you can also collect.

These three forms, however, are all regional exclusives to certain areas, so if you want to find them all, here is where you need to travel to.

Pokémon Location Countries it appears in
Tauros (Paldean Form - Combat Breed) Iberian Peninsula Portugal and Spain
Tauros (Paldean Form - Blaze Breed) Eastern Hemisphere Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia
Tauros (Paldean Form - Aqua Breed) Western Hemisphere North America, South America, UK

The most elusive Tauros in Pokémon Go is the Combat Breed, which is only exclusive to both Portugal and Spain in the Iberian Peninsula. Considering Paldea is based in these two countries, it makes sense to put the Pokémon as a regional exclusive to these regions.

As for Blaze Breed, you are going to find that in the Eastern Hemisphere, so places like Japan, most of Europe, Africa, and Australia among other areas in that part of the world.

As for the Aqua Breed, you are mainly going to find that in the Western Hemisphere, so places in North and South America, as well as Ireland, the U.K., and a small section of Africa.

You might also be able to find the Blaze Breed variant in the southeast of the U.K. and then the Aqua Breed in the rest of the country, as the U.K. sits between the line of both the Eastern and Western Hemisphere, so in theory you could get both of them at the same time if you stand in the right spot and get some lucky spawns, making the U.K. a unique place to capture both.

The U.K. is also pretty unique in that you can sometimes find a Klefki spawn, a France exclusive, in the southeast of England as well due to the unique mapping of the country. It's the same for any Hemisphere raid spawns, and its pretty cool when it happens as it saves you traveling to multiple countries when you can sit in Dover, catch one Tauros, and then make your way to Brighton to get the other.

And the award for best April Fools' prank goes to Iron Gate for letting Valheim players adopt a pet rock in-game.

What's a pet rock, I hear you ask? Well, it's a rock. That you can keep as a pet. For companionship. Anyway, here's how to get a pet rock in Valheim.

How to get rocks in Valheim

The pet rock is an item in Valheim that you'll need to craft. In order to do that, you need a rock and coal. I know this sounds stupidly simple and straightforward, but it's important to be aware of the distinction between a rock and a stone in Valheim.

As you explore the open-world in Valheim, you'll undoubtedly come across plenty of stones, which can then be used to craft other important things, like tools and weapons. However, what you want is a rock, and these are a lot harder to find than stones.

What you want to do is look for steep hills near a river. Climb up the hills and look out for rocks. They should be just slightly bigger than stones, so they shouldn't be too difficult to identify, but you can also hover your cursor over them to confirm. Your best bet is look in the Black Forest biome, though there are also plenty of hills and rivers in the Meadows.

Alternatively, you can also spawn it in with console commands. Activate console commands by pressing F5 and entering "devcommands", then enter "spawn pickable_stonerock" and you should be good to go.

Now that you've got your rock, make sure to get some coal as well, then equip your build hammer and craft the mysterious rock from the build menu. And that's pretty much it. You can now place the pet rock anywhere you'd like in the world.

If you need a refresher, here's a quick rundown of every way to get coal in Valheim:

  • Drops from Surtlings
  • Looted from chests
  • Converted from wood through a charcoal kiln
  • Burning food at any cooking station

If you're still early on in your playthrough, the easiest way to get coal would be to just overcook and burn your food at a cooking station. Hunt down any animal, then cook the meat over a fire and let it sit there until it turns into coal.

What to do with the pet rock

The pet rock was introduced in Valheim as an April Fools' joke, so it doesn't really have much functionality. However, you can customize it with gear and other items, and essentially accessorize it to make it look a bit more pretty. You can display it anywhere in your base for aesthetic purposes.

Here's a list of things you can do with the pet rock:

  • E key: Pet the rock.
  • Shift+E: Rename the rock.
  • 1-8: Attach items to the rock to customize and accessorize it.

And that's everything you need to know about getting the pet rock in Valheim. Be sure to search up Destructoid for more tips and information on the game, including a full list of console commands to help you out on your next playthrough.
