Kotaku Wednesday, July 30, 2025 4:25 PM A surprise Mario Kart World update has breathed new life into the Switch 2 exclusive, but it's one of the changes that goes unmentioned by Nintendo which could have the biggest impact on the game's competitive scene. |
Kotaku Wednesday, July 30, 2025 4:16 PM  Update 7/30/2025 4:16 p.m. ET: It didn't take players long to wonder if Nintendo was trolling them. Its patch note increasing the rate of three-lap races notably states "'VS Race' and wireless races" but not "wireless 'VS Race,'" which is how Nintendo referred to Mario Kart World's online mode in the previous update.… |
Kotaku Wednesday, July 30, 2025 3:55 PM  The original Switch was a trailblazing device that proved you could take console-quality games on the go, but it was demonstrably less powerful than its PlayStation and Xbox competitors. In the years since the handheld hit the shelves, that gap has only grown with the release of the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Making up… |

PCGamesN Wednesday, July 30, 2025 5:21 PM Last month, Saber Interactive confirmed that Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 would be getting a second year of post-launch support - hardly surprising, given it's remained hugely popular and that Space Marine 3 is a long way off. Still, it was reassuring to hear that more content was on the way, and from what Saber initially revealed, it sounds pretty epic. When Year 2 and Patch 10 arrive in September, Space Marine 2's delayed PvP mode, Helbrute Onslaught, will also hit the co-op shooter, and now we know how its mech-infused gameplay loop will work.

PCGamesN Wednesday, July 30, 2025 4:01 PM It's almost time for the Marvel Rivals 3.5 update, which brings a wealth of new content to players midway through its third season. The free-to-play shooter's roster is about to expand with the addition of Blade, and so too will its offering of game modes. However, the existing hero meta is also set to receive a shakeup - not only are some balance changes coming, but Team-Ups are getting a big refresh, with new additions, reworks, and removals.

WayForward confirmed the release date for Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution, the missing game in the series. It will launch on August 19, 2025. We'll be able to find it on the Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC. The standard version will be $24.99, while a Digital Deluxe one will cost $34.99.
The "advance" is in the name of Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution because this originally started as a GBA game. Following its cancellation, WayForward and Limited Run Games worked to bring it back in a finished state and to more platforms. It once again involves Shantae facing Risky Boots the pirate, only this time Scuttle Town isn't the only one in danger. She'll need to work with the Relic Hunter's Guild to find a way to help multiple towns and Sequin Land as a whole.
To go along with the reveal is a new trailer that explains what happens if someone gets the Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution Digital Deluxe Edition. That comes with three extra costumes for Shantae to wear. When equipped, they will increase the power of one of the attacks she can use in-game. So if you wear the High Voltage Costume, her StormPuffs do more damage. The Relic Hunter increases the attack of her Pike Ball. If she puts on Sizzle Armor, her Fireballs apparently get even hotter.
Here are some screenshots showing each of the Digital Deluxe Edition costumes we'll see in-game. There's also official WayForward art of each design.
Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution is in the works for the Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC, and the release date is August 19, 2025.

Mage Arena is the perfect co-op spell-casting action title you can play with your friends, and you can set up different types of matches.
The new indie title is quickly getting popular in the gaming community, and it's a different type of PVP shooter. Instead of guns, you use spells, and instead of buttons, you use your voice. Every spell inside the game activates on a particular voice command, and 10 options are available at launch.
Ultimately, wins will matter in the game, and playing with your friends should improve your chances of success. Let's look at how to invite your friends to the game and play together in the same lobby.
How to invite your friends to Mage Arena
Inviting your friends to a match in Mage Arena is simple. You don't even have to be friends on Steam.
Once your friends have the ID, they must do the following steps.
As of now, you can opt for two types of co-op experience with your friends. You can create a team of a maximum of four players (yourself included) and take on other squads in a team-based battle. Alternatively, the Colosseum lets you juke out with another player in a deathmatch.
Inviting your friend to a deathmatch is the same as the abovementioned steps. In case of a deathmatch, only two players can be part of the same lobby.
Whether you're playing solo or in a squad, memorize all the voice commands required to trigger the different spells available in the Mage Arena.

Destiny 2's Arms Week events celebrate one specific weapon category each time, turbocharging them through the powerful, time-limited Volatile weapon mods. They can be applied to several weapons from the archetype of the week, giving them a few extra effects.
Volatile weapon mods appear at the top of your weapon mod list when browsing the designated weapon category. You can apply them to any gun of that type as long as it has a mod slot, even if it's old enough not to have an origin trait (shoutout to the OG Palindrome).
Due to their power, they have a few limitations. The biggest is, they're only active during a given Arms Week, so enjoy them while they last. They won't function in the Desert Perpetual raid or in all Crucible playlists outside of Hardware, either, but you can place them in some of the best hand cannons to grab during the event.
All Volatile weapon mods in Destiny 2's Hand Cannon Arms Week
The hand cannon Arms Week has three weapon mods:
Fragmentation Rounds creates small grenades upon precision final blows, causing a couple of secondary explosions. Cowboy Grip gives the weapon more accurate hipfire and seems to improve its fire rate while not aiming down sights.
Chaotic Munitions is by far the most fun one thanks to its long list of effects. We've encountered Lorentz Driver-style Void explosions, Stasis crystals like if a weapon had Headstone, Ruinous Effigy orbs, the Scythe from Season of the Haunted, and Exotic Engrams à la Counterfeit, complete with sound effects.
How to get Volatile weapon mods in Destiny 2's Arms Week
We got Volatile weapon mods as regular drops from killing enemies in Portal activities. They dropped as Engrams on the ground, and picking them up added them to our collection.
The Arms Week title, Sharpshooter, requires you to unlock and use the Volatile weapon mods to defeat enemies. They're indicated by an orange clock icon on the top left, showing you they're only available for a limited time.

Mage Arena takes spell casting to the next level, where you'll have to use your vocal chords to outlast your opponents, and there are different options to pick from.
All players begin the game with a base set of five different spells. These spells are available to all by default, and you can use them strategically to gain an edge over your opponents. However, there are more spells to unlock from the Arena, which have pretty strong in-game effects.
All core spells in Mage Arena
As mentioned earlier, the spell book offers five different spells by default.
All Spell Page spells in Mage Arena
In the current Mage Arena build, there are five spells for you to discover using Spell Pages. They're found all around the Arena, so make sure to check out your surroundings.
It's more than likely that Mage Arena will have more spells being added to the game soon, and they will be duly updated on this guide.

If you're a cozy game enthusiast, odds are, you'll think of farming, life sim, or lighthearted, story-driven adventures. Today, I'm diving right into a wholesome yet peculiar sandbox game where you raise and care for a bunch of dogs. Let's check out Wobbledogs.
These aren't your average dogs, though. Wobbledogs is all about raising colorful, oddly geometric, mutated dogs through feeding, breeding, and caring. As you provide them with various foods and breed them, they'll develop unique traits and appearances, depending on their environment. Oh, and they can also pupate, which raises some questions as to whether these are even dogs at all.
To put it into perspective, one dog might have a blue head and a pink, rectangular body, while another might have a smaller body and slightly shorter legs because it had eaten some French fries a few minutes ago. This'll happen through pupation combined with breeding, letting you create some wacky combinations as you continue your playthrough.
Having all of this happen within an adorable, colorful, and cartoonish game makes for a bizarre experience that I didn't know I could have. It takes a while to get there, but over time, you'll start noticing your dogs change, even by a one percent increase (or decrease) in size, an ever-so-slight shift in color, or randomly growing wings because they ate some cake.
Although Wobbledogs' concept sounds simple, it's surprisingly complex, particularly with its gut flora mechanics. Every food has specific microorganisms, from bacteria to fungi, that influence your dogs in one way or another. As your dogs eat different foods, their gut flora will change, letting you combine effects for potentially bizarre outcomes. You'll also learn the effects of each food and its organisms, letting you decide if you want to go all-in on feeding your dogs a specific item to achieve a particular effect or experiment to see what random perks you unlock.
What is the most bizarre game you've played? Do you tend to stick to the same genre, or do you like to experiment with different titles? Let us know in the comments below!

Season 3.5 has yet to go live in Marvel Rivals, but the Dev Vision Vol. 8 has given us early glimpses of what will arrive in the mid-season refresh.
The latest video, over seven minutes long, was chaired by Creative Director Guangguang, who shared information about new heroes, Team-Ups, and more. Let's quickly look at what we can expect after the patch for Season 3.5 goes live.
Table of contents
All Marvel Rivals Season 3.5 patch note highlights
In short, once Season 3.5 goes live, we will get new heroes, maps, and more.
Hero
Team-Ups
There are some significant changes to Team-Ups. Four existing teams will undergo changes, and there are a couple of new additions and deductions.
Game Mode
The August 22 update will introduce a new game mode called Resource Rumble, which will have its own new map, Throne of Knull. It will be available in Quick Match first and further fine-tuned before being added to competitive play.
Quality of Life changes and improvements
A lot of strong moves are being made to improve the player experience and prevent cases of cyber-bullying.
Finally, there will be no more waiting for the shaders to compile, as that process will happen automatically in the background. This will save players much time moving forward to the mid-season update.

Mage Arena is an indie hit utilizing voice-activated commands for spell casting, making it one of the most unique games on the market today.
With spells being at the center of its gameplay loop, finding more of them is the top priority in any given match. However, doing so isn't all too straightforward and can often lead to your missing out on a lot of power. So, here's how and where you can find more spells in Mage Arena.
Where to find more spells in Mage Arena?
Outside your regular spells, which are made available to you via your starting book, spells are scattered all around the map, particularly in dangerous zones that favor the bold.
One such place is the Lava Castle, often located in the middle of the map. You'll recognize it by its lava pits and flames. At the very top of its towers, you can find chests, which can contain powerful abilities that you can then use to wreak havoc upon the enemy team. Keep in mind, though, that Fire Castle contains respawning enemies that can and will kill you if you aren't careful enough.
Another place to look for spells is the Crypt, particularly its vases. Breaking vases can drop various loot, including spells and items, so make sure you break everything you see. Other enemies will probably be gunning for these locations, so be careful.
Dungeons scattered across the map are additional locations to look for spells as well as items like Excalibur and Dark Blast, so you'll want to prioritize quick and effective looting runs at the very start of the match.
Trading with gnomes in their villages can also lead to their granting you spells, though be mindful not to give them your original spell tome, as it will render those abilities unavailable for most of the match.
You can trade basically any item you hold in your hands, and you probably should, so long as it's not a Crystal, which you can give to the Soup Man at spawn to buff your spell damage and resistance.

It was late 2024 when I grabbed my Nintendo Switch to play some old games. I had never really gotten into retro gaming deeply, and I'm not a walking encyclopedia on obscure Mega Drive and Super Nintendo titles—though I secretly admire those who are.
So I went the most mainstream route and used Nintendo Switch Online to play some SNES. I had this console in my childhood, but I never owned many cartridges. Why not enjoy some of the games I never got to play?
I started with Pilotwings. In this game, you take part in lessons on aerial activities like skydiving and piloting a light aircraft. You're in the Flight Club trying to earn licenses while being judged by multiple instructors on your skills.
I thought I had played Pilotwings Resort on the 3DS. That should be enough, right?
Well... I actually think my memory tricked me and I had never played the 3DS game. I started the SNES game with the plane, collecting small green orbs through the straight flight path before landing. I moved up and down, but I couldn't brake properly and crashed a lot. It took me several attempts to finally beat the first stage. When it came to skydiving, I didn't understand how to move my character. He would always go too far forward or backward, not doing what I expected based on my instinct and feel.
I had the "What the hell is going on?" feeling when I tried to play Super Punch-Out, which was a bit more instinctive despite the lack of control instructions in the intro. It's a boxing match, so I quickly figured out I could move sideways to dodge punches. But it took me a while to realize I couldn't block by holding backward or pressing L or R like in modern games. After taking a lot of punches to the face from the game's first character, Gabby Jay, I accidentally learned I had to not press anything to block low punches.
But at that point in both games, I was ready to give up and say what most of us probably repeat about old games we suck at them:
"This game is too hard. The controls aren't responsive. Everything's outdated."
But then I remembered the most basic thing about retro games. Something we forget now that they're all digital (unless you're a physical collector). They came with manuals.
Actual booklets. Instructions. Just like when you buy furniture that you need to assemble. The game manual just tells you what to do, which buttons to press, and what does what. And beyond basic controls, these manuals often had great tips: how to angle your plane when landing, use a Knock Out Punch, and land a paraglider.
Before reading these manuals, I was basically playing a nerfed version of Super Punch-Out. I got stuck in the second fight against the Bear Hugger because he's mostly immune to body punches, and I didn't know I could throw uppercuts.
And most of these older games, especially from the '90s or earlier, didn't have tutorial stages. There's no practice dummy to teach you or pop-ups telling you what buttons to press. While Pilotwings shows you the basic controls, it doesn't show the better tips from the manual. So yeah, you have to read it.
That might sound obvious to some of you seasoned retro gamers, or those who grew up playing these games. But for me, going back to them now, it wasn't obvious at all. There's this ego part of it: "I've been playing games for years. There's no way I need a manual! I know how games work."
Turns out I did need it.
And while reading a manual written mostly for '90s children first felt like a blow to my ego, it unlocked the fun because now I had the tools and knew how to play.
Not saying that Pilotwings or Super Punch-Out suddenly became easy, because they absolutely didn't. Even after learning how to paraglide, it still took me an hour or two in later licenses just to land without dying. The game was plain difficult, but the manual at least gave me a fighting chance.
In the case of poorly designed games, reading the manual will let you spot just that. If the developers gave you all the information you need and the game still feels wonky and unfair, it probably is. If manuals were the holy grail, The Angry Video Game Nerd wouldn't have become famous reviewing trash retro games.
If you look at retro consoles as a goldmine, full of great games that are just old, but you had weird or frustrating experiences with them in the past, I recommend you just read their manual. You don't need to own the cartridge or buy the game. Nintendo has many original game manuals uploaded on their website, and there are plenty of scanned versions are floating around too.
So just let go of your gamer ego. Then, you'll actually be playing the game with the intended difficulty, just like a kid (or adult!) would've played it when it first released.
I'm happy to say I beat Pilotwings and Super Punch-Out, and it was much more fun than before I read the manuals.

Dead by Daylight, having a rich presence on Discord, often opens up quests for players to earn small rewards as a token of gratitude from the devs for being a member of the community.
The current quest, tied to the new Dead by Daylight: The Walking Dead Chapter, is now available and will remain so until Aug. 6. So, here's how you can complete this DBD Discord quest and earn yourself an avatar decoration stylized after the Entity.
DBD Discord quest guide
Completing the DBD Discord quest is pretty straightforward. All you need to do is boot up Discord, join the official DBD server, and then proceed to the Discover tab in your platform's Discord app. The quest requires Discord to be open while you play DBD and have the correct platform selected; otherwise, it doesn't count.
The Discover tab is located at the very bottom of your Discord server list, with the Quest section at the bottom of the Discover list, beneath Apps and Servers.
Open the Quest tab, navigate to DBD's quest, and accept it. Select the platform you'll be playing on and leave Discord open and active.
Then, proceed to play DBD for 15 minutes while Discord is open, and you'll have completed the quest. Simply navigate back to the Quests tab and claim your reward. DBD's Discord quests change up every now and again, so be sure to pay attention to the Quests tab if you want to keep up to date.

Grounded 2's Early Access period is off to a strong start on PC and consoles, and there's plenty of content coming soon.
Developer Obsidian Entertainment has already revealed an official roadmap for the next major updates. The existing roadmap has content planned for four major updates: Fall, Winter, Summer (2026), and Future (beyond Summer 2026).
Let's look at all the major features coming to the game soon.
Table of contents
Grounded 2 early access Fall update contents
The Fall update will be the first significant content drop in the game.
Grounded 2 early access Winter update contents
The Winter update is expected to be the last major content update this year.
Grounded 2 early access Summer update contents
The Summer update is expected to arrive in the early parts of the second quarter of next year.
Plenty more content is planned for Grounded 2 and will be added during Early Access. As of this writing, we don't have expected timelines for these upcoming features.
These features should take more time for Obsidian to develop and implement. I am really looking forward to the Winter update, which should allow me to enjoy the game on my ROG Ally. If you're already enjoying the early access, check out our recommended settings to reduce lag and frame drops.
