PCGamesN Friday, April 11, 2025 5:57 AM All 2XKO characters and movesets       Which characters are in 2XKO? Predicting the final roster isn't as easy to do with the League of Legends spinoff. After all, there are over 140 potential Champions to pick from. Just like League of Legends and Valorant, we're fully expecting Riot to add to their roster of characters in the fighting game every so often. It's difficult to say how long it takes to create a fighter for 2XKO, but if other fighting games are anything to go by, we could expect a new roster addition every few months. The 2XKO release date is set for later this year, giving us plenty of time to analyze and assess the current roster of 2XKO characters and their movesets.

PCGamesN Friday, April 11, 2025 5:36 AM After Helldivers 2 PSN controversy, Bungie takes firm stance on new FPS Marathon       For the first few months after it was released, galactic co-op shooter Helldivers 2 could do wrong - and then came the PSN account linking. Sony mandated that players would have to connect their Steam accounts to a Playstation account, and though the publisher eventually u-turned, by that time, a sustained campaign of review bombing had already significantly crushed down Helldivers 2's all-important user score. It seems that Bungie wants to avoid any similar controversy. Despite being owned by Sony, the Destiny 2 and Halo studio makes it emphatically clear that its new FPS Marathon will not demand that PC players link their accounts.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Friday, April 11, 2025 5:17 AM Marathon players on PC won't need a PlayStation account, say Bungie       You won't need a PlayStation account to play Marathon on PC, promise Bungie as their shooter's marketing blitz picks up speed. Previous games under Sony's umbrella, such as Helldivers 2, caused frustration and backlash when PC players were forced to register for a PlayStation account just to play online. But it looks like Sony's recent backpedalling on this requirement will save the upcoming extraction shooter from pissing off PC folks. Read more

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Friday, April 11, 2025 4:22 AM The sequel to the sequel to Snake just dropped       Snakists is a game by Pippin Barr, author of many small and wonderful ludic experiments. The most pertinent of which, in this case, is Snakisms. That one takes the can-I-borrow-your-Nokia-for-a-minute-mate 'em up and explores a smattering of experimental design tunnels based on different schools of thoughts. 'Pessimism', for example, forces you to contend with a prized gobblin' dot placed permanently outside the confines of your snakely entrapment box, 'Asceticism' kills you as soon as you eat a dot, and so on. Snakists takes this concept and applies it to concepts ending with 'ist'. Deist, purist, sadist, and so on, for a total of 20 different tail-wriggling tales. I enjoy them for how they both celebrate Snake and also employ its relative simplicity as a neutral palette on which to mix colourful synthesis of languages both human and game. Read more

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Friday, April 11, 2025 4:17 AM Schedule I NPCs cry for help, dealer continues to stalk them while making spreadsheets       People often get snarky about Reddit but I consider the work of user _inferno_44 to be better games journalism than anything I've written in at least a month, probably longer. Three colour coded spreadsheets blocking out three Schedule I NPC's daily routines, ox watchin' style. Cheers, Persil XL 3-In-1 Washing Capsules Gamer. They're surprisingly detailed for something that's mainly there to get you to hoof around a bit. Plus fixed routines are just good world building for a weed selling simulation such as this. They raise pertinent questions. Does the forbidden spinach blur the ache of sharp routine like existential Alka Seltzer? Or does it encourage such contemplation as to appreciate the hidden rapture in the familiar? Read more

Destructoid Friday, April 11, 2025 5:12 AM Forsaken Discord and Trello Link       Forsaken is another asymmetrical PvP game where a group of survivors play against one killer, very much like Dead by Daylight. The game is currently in Alpha, but just like many Roblox games that are serious about making it big, Forsaken already has an active Discord Server and even a rich Trello page. In this guide, we'll share with you the Roblox Forsaken Discord and Trello Link. Roblox Forsaken Links Forsaken Discrod Link Forsaken Game Page Forsaken X profile Forsaken Trello Link Kicking things off with the Forsaken official Discord group. As of writing this, there are over 300k members, and over 60k are active. If you need to discuss killers, survivors, and best strategies, this is a great place to get some advice from real players. Image by Forsaken Dev Team The Forsaken Game Page doesn't actually contain much, apart from the play button, but you do get a good look at the player count and even a sneak peek of some premium items you can buy. The Forsaken X profile is, surprisingly, active. While mostly used for advertising the game, you can also order special plushies through it. Currently, you can order the Taph plushie, and the devs are really pushing them. Last but not least, we have the Trello board. Unlike many Roblox Trello boards we've covered, this is filled to the brim with information, and not just with all the stuff currently in the game, but a lot of things that are currently in development. Here's everything you can find: Survivors (a list of all survivors with their special abilities) Killers (a list of all killers with their perks and abilities) A "How to" board that acts like a basic tutorial (explains leveling, emotes, the game timer, objectives, and goals) Character skins Achievements Emotes A detailed update log with changes Gamepasses (and their cost) A list of NPCs inside the main lobby Other stuff (Shop Menu, Inventory Menu, Spectate Menu, etc.) If you aren't sure about something in Forsaken, the Trello board is definitely a good place to start. That's all there is to it. Have fun playing Forsaken, and we hope you survive the killer (unless you're the one killing, haha). If you haven't already, check out our Forsaken codes for some cool in-game freebies. The post Forsaken Discord and Trello Link appeared first on Destructoid.

Destructoid Friday, April 11, 2025 2:43 AM How to open the Shelter Time-Lock Safe in Blue Prince       The rooms of the mysterious manor in Blue Prince are filled with puzzles and safes just waiting for you to crack them open. It's not an easy task, though. If you're looking to open the Time-Lock safe in Blue Prince, we've got you covered. Table of contents Blue Prince Shelter Time-Lock safe solution How to check the date and time How to get to the Shelter Blue Prince Shelter Time-Lock safe solution Screenshot by Destructoid Like a lot of other puzzles in Blue Prince, the combination to the Time-Lock safe is not a set answer and it'll likely be different for everyone. In order to open it, you need to figure out the current date in your run, and then set a time for it to open. How to check the date and time Your very first run in Blue Prince started on Nov. 7. To figure out the current date, check how many days you're on, then add that to Nov. 7, and subtract one. So for instance, if you're currently on day four, your current date would be Nov. 10. You add four to Nov. 7, and subtract one because Nov. 7 was the first day of the expedition. To check the in-game time, you'll need to look at the clocks in rooms like the Den, or check the time from the clock tower outside the manor. One in-game hour equates to roughly five minutes in real life, so another way you can estimate it is by tracking how much time has elapsed in your current run, then calculate the time from there. Each day begins at 8 a.m., so if you've been playing for 10 minutes, then you're probably at 10 a.m. at that moment. The good news is that the safe will stay open for four hours, so even if you're just a little bit off with the time, you should still be able to check its contents if you wait in the Shelter. After opening the Time-Lock safe in Blue Prince, you'll be rewarded with one Gem and Red Letter VII. How to get to the Shelter Screenshot by Destructoid Reaching the Shelter requires you to restore power to the Garage on the west side of the estate. To do this, you'll first want to head to the West Gate by going as far west as you can from the Entrance Hall, and head outside of the manor. Once you get the option to draft the Garage, do that. In order to open the Garage Door, you'll need to have drafted a Utility Closet and completed the Breaker Box puzzle to power it up. This will let you open the Garage Door, taking you out of the estate to the West Gate and West Path. At the West Path, you'll be able to draft the Shelter, though you'll also have a couple other options available to you. The Shelter can only be drafted here though, so do that.

Destructoid Friday, April 11, 2025 12:25 AM How to enter the Antechamber in Blue Prince       Your goal in Blue Prince is to find the elusive 46th room in a large, 45-room manor. And to get there, you need to go through the Antechamber. How do you get into the Antechamber in Blue Prince, you ask? That's what we're here for. Table of contents How to get into the Antechamber in Blue Prince Antechamber eastern door: Great Hall Antechamber southern door: Greenhouse Antechamber western door: Secret Garden How to get into Room 46 How to get into the Antechamber in Blue Prince Screenshot by Destructoid There are only three ways into the Antechamber in Blue Prince: through the western Antechamber door, the southern door, or the eastern door. All these doors are locked, and you need to find levers to open them. As you might've already guessed, you need to draft specific rooms in order to find those levers. And even then, getting those levers or even just the act of drafting those rooms can be a little tricky. The good news is that you only need to open one of the Antechamber doors to get in, so I'll outline the methods for each door below and you can just pick the one you like best. Antechamber eastern door: Great Hall In order to get through the eastern door of the Antechamber, you need to draft the Great Hall to find your levers. The problem with the Great Hall is that while it does have four connections, three of those doors are locked, and only one of those will lead you to the eastern door lever. To get around this problem, you need to be prepared with three keys by the time you reach the Great Hall, or use the Lockpick to bypass them. Alternatively, you can also draft the Foyer before entering the Great Hall. The Foyer makes it so that all doors in Hallway-style rooms will be unlocked, allowing you to explore the Great Hall to your satisfaction. Antechamber southern door: Greenhouse If you want to enter the Antechamber through the south door, you'll need to get the lever in the Greenhouse, which typically spawns on the eastern side of the manor. The problem with the Greenhouse is that the lever itself is broken, which means that you need to have obtained a Broken Lever elsewhere in the manor. To make things even worse, there doesn't seem to be a set spawn point for the Broken Lever, meaning it can spawn in any room. You'll have the best chance of getting it in the Spare Room or Security, but it's not guaranteed. Either way, if you have the Broken Lever, you can interact with the device in the Greenhouse to open the southern door to the Antechamber. Antechamber western door: Secret Garden Screenshot by Destructoid Finally, you can open the western door by pulling the lever in the Secret Garden. Once inside, interact with the valves to point the wind vanes towards the moon statue. This will open up a hidden compartment in the wall, revealing the lever that opens the western Antechamber door. Do note that you need to have obtained the Key to the Secret Garden from the Billiard Room first. How to get into Room 46 Even after you've gotten into the Antechamber in Blue Prince, your work isn't done yet. To enter Room 46, you need to explore the Underground area with the Basement Key. With the Basement Key in hand, you'll now be able to open the doors in the Underground area, solve the gear puzzle, which will then open the northern Antechamber door that lets you into Room 46. And that's how to enter the Antechamber in Blue Prince. Be sure to search up Destructoid for more tips and information on the game, including how to solve the chessboard puzzle, along with a list of all safe code combinations.

Destructoid Thursday, April 10, 2025 11:19 PM 2025 Video Game release date calendar       2024 is already looking to be an interesting year for gaming, with several remakes and remasters arriving in early January and brand-new releases making the waves later on. 2023 was an exciting time, gaming in 2024 was slightly underwhelming, and it's only a matter of time before we learn what 2025 entails. It is very easy to forget the sheer volume of games that launch throughout an entire year.

Destructoid Thursday, April 10, 2025 10:55 PM How to solve the chessboard puzzle in Blue Prince       Puzzles are the name of the game in Blue Prince, and some of them require you to piece together clues from multiple rooms. That can be tricky, so if you're looking to solve the chessboard puzzle in Blue Prince, we're here to help. Table of contents Blue Prince chessboard puzzle solution All possible chess piece locations Blue Prince chessboard puzzle rewards Which power should you choose? Blue Prince chessboard puzzle solution Screenshot by Destructoid The annoying thing about the chessboard puzzle in Blue Prince is that there's no fixed solution to it. The answer depends on which rooms you've drafted in your current run, so I won't be able to give you a definitive solution. I can tell you how to solve it, though. There are six chess pieces you need to move on the chessboard: King, Queen, Bishop, Knight, Rook, and the Pawn. The square you move them to depends on which room in the manor the piece is located in on your current run. This means that you'll need to have drafted six rooms at the minimum before you're able to solve this puzzle. Generally speaking, the pieces will always appear in the same handful of rooms (though the Pawn is a little trickier), so the solution will depend on which room they spawned in, and the order you drafted the rooms in. For example, if you found the Pawn in the Storeroom, and that happens to be the second room you drafted during this run, then you'd place the Pawn in the first row on the chessboard, on the second square. When you place a piece in the correct location, the square will light up, letting know you're all set. All possible chess piece locations Screenshot by Destructoid To help make things a little easier for you, I've listed all possible room locations for each chess piece below. The Pawn is the trickiest because it has the largest number of possible spawn points, but the other pieces only spawn in two or three possible locations. Chess Piece Location King Study Throne Room Queen Office Her Ladyship's Chamber Bishop Attic Chapel Bookshop Knight Observatory Security Rook Conservatory Clock Tower Nook Vault Pawn Bedroom Den Dining Room Drawing Room Freezer Lost and Found Secret Passage Solarium Walk-In Closet Blue Prince chessboard puzzle rewards After solving the chessboard puzzle in Blue Prince, you'll get to choose one power to help you on your runs. The power will persist through all runs until you come back and change it. Here are all of the options: Power Effect Banner of the King Each day you may choose a room color. Rooms of the chosen color are more likely to be drawn while drafting. Gambit of the Queen Each time you draft a room in the Queenside of the house, you lose five steps and gain a key. Mantle of the Knight Adds the Armory to your draft pool. Piety of the Bishop You do not have to pay Tithes. Instead you gain 30 Gold the first time you enter the Chapel each day. Resilience of the Rook You may draw floor plans up to four times when drafting the four corner rooms of the manor. Ambition of the Pawn When you reach Rank 8 each day, you may choose Knight, Bishop, Rook, or Queen. Gain the power of that piece until the end of the day. Do be warned that if you want to change your power, you need to redo the chessboard puzzle. This means drafting your rooms again, finding out where each piece is, then placing them on the board accordingly. It's a bit of a hassle, so choose your power wisely. Which power should you choose? In my experience, you can't really go wrong with the King, Knight, or the Bishop, and your choice largely depends on what your goals are for the run. Personally, I liked going for the Bishop early on after first discovering the chessboard puzzle. Not having to pay Tithes and getting 30 free Gold can be very helpful, as long as you get into the Chapel once per run. Later on, I swapped over to the King because I wanted a bit more control over the rooms I was drafting. This was very helpful in solving some of Blue Prince's more meta puzzles, including all of those pesky safes littered around the place. The Knight power gives you access to the Armory, which is where you can buy a variety of useful items like the Knight's Shield and the Axe. The Knight's Shield, in particular, proved to be very handy because it allows you to ignore all Red Room effects. The Axe, on the other hand, lets you remove the Gem cost from a room, which is great for getting a ton of items for free if you pick the right room to use it on.
