PCGamesN Friday, July 25, 2025 1:00 AM The Once Human system requirements have always been surprisingly low, considering the open-world aspects and nightmare-inducing boss fights, and not even the latest raft of updates has triggered these requirements to change. Whether you're returning from a hiatus or taking your first steps in Eternaland, you won't need a modern gaming laptop or PC. Once Human has been out for just over a year now, and has quickly established itself as one of the best survival games with a horror twist on Steam. You won't need anything scary to get the game running, but if you want to challenge the Great Ones and render the Deviants at their best, you'll need to reach for much more modern hardware, including the Intel Core i5-12400F CPU, which sits on our buying guide as one of the best gaming CPU picks of 2025.

Bushiroad announced that it will offer keychains of Danganronpa 1 and 2 characters in Japanese capsule machines in November 2025. These will be part of the company's Petatto Nejimaki collection, which reimagines them as wind-up toys. It will be
300円 (~$2) per strap. While there isn't any announcement about a worldwide release yet HobbyLink Japan often sells Petatto Nejimaki keychains worldwide.
There will be eight characters in this Danganronpa 1 and 2 Petatto Nejimaki keychains collection. Only seven ended up revealed so far, as the eighth is the "secret" one that tends to be rarer. Three appeared in the first game, while three showed up in the second. The Danganronpa cast members are Makoto Naegi, Kyoko Kirigiri, and Junko Enoshima. The sequel ones are Hajime Hinata, Nagito Komaeda, and Chiaki Nanami. Monokuma appeared as the one present in both. Each one will be a PVC strap with a nylon small cord attached to a lobster claw clasp.
Here's the first image teasing the designs.
Back in April 2025, more keychains based on characters from the series showed up. Those were based on art drawn by Bkub Okawa, who is best known for Pop Team Epic.
The Danganronpa 1 and 2 Petatto Nejimaki character keychains will debut in Japan in November 2025.

In a great crossover, which I believe most creators are currently stretching their arms in frustration for not thinking of, competitive gamer and streamer Loserfruit just posted a new video in which she had the Fantastic Four First Steps family—Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach— try out Marvel Rivals for the first time.
As you can expect, what entails is a wild ride, as we watch the cast react to Rivals' iterations of their characters before taking on a real match. Among them, however, one particular moment seems to have taken the community by storm (no pun intended), as we get to see the cast's first impressions of Sue's fan-favorite Malice skin. You can check out Loserfruit's full video below:
The video could not have debuted in a better time, as not only is First Steps having a great reception, but skins based on its version of the Fantastics are set to debut on July 24, at 9pm CT as part of Marvel Rivals' new bundle. Together with the skins, The Thing and Human Torch will also be receiving a new Team Up Ability, called "First Steps." When active, it sees the latter carry the tank before dropping him on enemies for maximum effect. It's clobberin' time, am I right?
You can currently play Marvel Rivals for free on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5, as well as watch Fantastic Four First Steps in theaters all over the world. You can also support Loserfruit by following her on her social media and watching her streams on Twitch.
If you're a new player, make sure to also take a look at our Marvel Rivals season 3 tier list to know who to try out and, most importantly, avoid. For those who cannot wait to dive into the upcoming mid-season update and take Blade to the field, we then recommend checking out our season 3.5 countdown.

The shiny new third entry into the Killing Floor series is finally here. Featuring six classes at launch, the game has a ton of weapon, skill, and Perk variety, all of which contribute to its high replayability value.
One of these Perks is the Engineer, a heavy-hitting soundwave enjoyer who thrives on slaughtering Zeds with shotguns, explosives, or sound. He's one of the less interesting Perks in the game, failing to stand out enough amid other shotgun and explosive users, but carries a very potent gadget that could make or break high difficulty runs.
To help you be on top of your game at all times with the Engineer, we've crafted the following build.
The Best Build for Engineer in KF3
The Engineer has two shotguns, a grenade launcher, and a laser rifle at his disposal, each playing significantly differently. For the sake of our build, we'll be going for a Shotgunner Engineer playstyle, using his two shotguns kitted out with different bullets for maximum single- and multi-target damage. The Engineer is a fantastic Perk for clearing massive waves of enemies due to his gadget, but since it won't always be available, we'll have to rely on his second primary weapon aside from his default one.
Pump-action shotguns are just too OP in KF3 to be ignored, and the Engineer's default Contek CSG is perfectly capable of butchering Zeds at any difficulty.
Loadout
Here's our recommended build:
The Context is a pump-action shotgun, whereas the Bonerbreaker is automatic. For close-range Zeds in need of a proper thrashing, you'll want to use the Contek, whereas long-range altercations should be handled with the Bonebreaker, whose explosive shells will ensure the target and anything around it is blown to Kingdom Come. Additionally, Contek is perfect for bigger, heavily armored Zeds as only a few hits to critical areas are enough to stagger and open them for an execution.
Krait is one of the better side arms in the game, providing a good rapid-firing fully automatic option to the Engineer. While you won't be using it all the time, it's good to have it kitted out for the rare occasion you're knocked down or just need to spray and pray into a group of crazed Zeds. The Heavy Frame Receiver will slow its fire rate a bit, but the massive damage uplift is more than worth it, given how quickly the gun fires anyway.
Skills
Much like other Perks in the game, the Engineer has his own set of passives, throwable buffs, and gadget improvements that allow him to achieve ultimate power. Since we went for a shotgun-focused loadout, we'll also target shotguns in the skill tree, while focusing on increasing Bouncing Betty and Bunkered's efficacy.
With this skill set, you'll have a ton of damage output both from your weapons, and your throwable and gadget. You'll also have a lot of buffs to your mobility and defense, while retaining a lot of efficiency in boss fights due to just how powerful your soundwave blasts will be.
