Kotaku Thursday, March 20, 2025 11:35 AM ![]() We're in the midst of a retro console revolution. Between emulation handhelds pouring out of China and more affordable FPGA consoles popping up all the time, there have never been more options to choose from for playing classic games from the '80s, '90s, and 2000s. The Nintendo 64 is one of the platforms getting… |
Kotaku Thursday, March 20, 2025 11:00 AM ![]() Assassin's Creed Shadows, out now, is a very good entry in Ubisoft's long-running franchise. But it's also a big, complicated game with a lot of different mechanics, systems, features, and options. And Shadows doesn't always do a great job of explaining how all of this stuff works. |
Kotaku Thursday, March 20, 2025 10:20 AM ![]() A day-one patch for Assassin's Creed Shadows will address criticisms of how the open-world RPG allows players to go on a violent rampage through religious shrines in 1500s Japan. Parts of specific buildings will no longer be destructible, and the monks inside will no longer bleed when hit, following recent comments on… |
Kotaku Thursday, March 20, 2025 8:30 AM ![]() It would frankly be silly at this point not to get Jack Black to release his vocal chords if he's starring in a movie. Following the viral success of 'Peaches,' Black's gloriously silly ditty sung as Bowser in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, it looks like A Minecraft Movie is trying to capture some of the same magic.… |
PCGamesN Thursday, March 20, 2025 11:52 AM ![]() Who are the best Overwatch 2 heroes? With 42 heroes to pick from as of Season 15, starting in Blizzard's hero shooter can be pretty daunting, and it's not always easy to tell how strong your chosen character is when you're constantly coming up against different counters and team comps. Of course, just because we say a hero is a must-pick doesn't mean you can't do a better job with your preferred Overwatch 2 characters, but most players should be able to look at this Overwatch 2 tier list for a quick snapshot of who to play and why.

PCGamesN Thursday, March 20, 2025 11:01 AM ![]() The Assassin's Creed Shadows launch day is here and Ubisoft's latest stealth RPG has finally arrived on Steam and other platforms. Reviews from both critics and players are strong, but, just before its release, AC Shadows has been met with controversy owing to the fact that players may destroy certain objects inside the shrines that are located within its world. Questions about Assassin's Creed's Shadows recreation of Japan have been raised in Japan's parliament. Now, Ubisoft has quietly released an Assassin's Creed Shadows day-one patch that removes players' ability to damage particular objects inside the in-game shrines.

PCGamesN Thursday, March 20, 2025 10:51 AM ![]() What are the Assassin's Creed Shadows system requirements? While getting the latest Assassin's Creed game to run on older gaming PCs isn't much trouble based on our testing, if you're aiming for high graphical fidelity and a super fast frame rate, you're going to need some serious PC upgrades. It's time to buy the best graphics cards out there to make the most of your time with Yasuke and Naoe in Feudal Japan. The Assassin's Creed Shadows system requirements show a healthy balance between old and new hardware. However, ray tracing isn't optional, even on the lowest graphics settings, and you'll need an RTX 4090 or better to manage full RT at 4K. We've had a play around with the game to cover the best Assassin's Creed Shadows settings for PC and Steam Deck, and found that the game is gloriously optimized for PC, but not so much for handhelds.

PCGamesN Thursday, March 20, 2025 10:46 AM ![]() What are the Killing Floor 3 system requirements? This gore-tastic FPS was originally set to arrive in March, but has since been delayed indefinitely. Regardless, you might want to consider upgrading your gaming PC if your parts are starting to look a little dusty. Killing Floor 3 demands significant upgrades over its predecessor, but a nine-year gap between releases will do that. You won't need the very best graphics card to start blasting zombies, sorry, I mean Zeds, when the new Killing Floor 3 release date comes around. However, this is one game where you'll want to target the recommended specs to experience the new M.E.A.T dismemberment system in all its glory. Elsewhere, a suspiciously small install size has me thinking that large high-resolution texture files aren't a focus for developer Tripwire Interactive.

Now that the system specs are finally out, not only do we have four tiers ranging from minimum to high, but we also have specific details about optimizing performance through upscaling and how SSDs will impact performance. If you're planning to run inZOI at the highest settings possible, you're going to need one of the best graphics cards alongside one of the best gaming CPUs.

PCGamesN Thursday, March 20, 2025 10:03 AM ![]() There's potentially bad news if you were hoping to pick up a new budget gaming GPU soon, as the launch of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 lineup has reportedly been postponed. Seeing as Nvidia hasn't even officially confirmed the existence of these GPUs, let alone the release dates, this can't be technically described as a delay, but the latest rumors suggest Nvidia's board partners, who make graphics cards based on the GPUs, expected the GPUs to be released well before this timeframe. This latest report follows a recent RTX 5060 launch date rumor, which suggested the new Nvidia GPUs were all set to be announced on March 13, which quickly turned out to be entirely incorrect, with Nvidia not even making a mention of the new GPUs. If you're looking to get the best graphics card for a low price, then it looks as though you're going to have to wait a while longer.

PCGamesN Thursday, March 20, 2025 10:01 AM ![]() The upcoming Endless Legend 2 is sparking my love for 4X games once again, as developer Amplitude teases the first of its playable factions, the hardened Kin of Sheredyn. Civilization 7 might make some bold changes, but it remains fundamentally, stoically Civ in its core systems. Like its predecessor before it, EL2 is set to bring something different to the strategy table, leaning into firmly defined faction identities that open up the potential for far more unique play styles.

If you want to succeed in achieving your vengeance-themed goals, you'll need some help, and AC Shadows scouts are the perfect way to give you an advantage over those who would do you harm. Not only can they dampen the threat on your life, but they can increase your wealth and even scout out an area before you visit. Eventually, you will have a lot of assets on your side in Assassin's Creed Shadows. This includes a handful of powerful AC Shadows allies, and the best AC Shadows weapons - leading into the best AC Shadows builds, of course - but one of the first tools at your disposal is your array of scouts.

Ever since that first trailer, it's become the biggest and most-anticipated game perhaps ever - Grand Theft Auto 5 remains a titan, but we're all eager for Rockstar's sequel, and a long-awaited return to Vice City. The wait, however, is still ahead of us. Doom The Dark Ages, Atomfall, and Elden Ring Nightreign are coming to ease things along, but if you've got an appetite for sandbox chaos before the new Grand Theft Auto, your best call is Deliver At All Costs.

If you're extremely lucky (and timely), getting a bunch of free gems in Big Games' latest pet collecting game can be as easy as typing a few letters into a box.

Really though, what else does Skate Story need to say? We've already known how lovely it looks since not-E3 of 2022, then we found out even more about it from a demo last year.

Speaking at GDC as part of a presentation named 'Helldivers 2: Capturing Lightning in a Bottle,' Chief Easily identifiable satire Officer Johan Pilestedt gave some insight into the game's themes, then bragged about having the UN blowing his DMs constantly (said they got in contact once).

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Thursday, March 20, 2025 5:39 AM ![]() What's the going rate for a flight to attend GDC these days? I ask because I'd have loved to be buzzing my merry way about the convention walls when Snail Games USA unveiled this doozy of an AI-generated trailer for Ark: Survival Evolved's Aquatica expansion. I'd give it a solid nine on the "we're not even trying to disguise it any longer" scale. How bad is it? Bad enough that original developers Studio Wildcard hastily and firmly distanced themselves from the project, reiterating that their focus was on ARK: Survival Ascended and Ark 2. If I had to sum up the trailer in a single word, I would attempt to write that word out with four-day old regurgitated Alphabetti spaghetti, invariably failing to give voice to my flailing disgust before retiring to the corner to fart at god. This would still take approximately fourteen times more effort than whoever got paid to write "like the ocean, but worse" into their phone to tease out the following results. |

The next Holo Indie game has a release date, as we'll see the Myriad Death roguelike starring Hololive English Vtuber Mori Calliope on March 24, 2025. Steam Deck support isn't confirmed yet, though using a controller is recommended.
In Myriad Death, Mori Calliope is trying to take back the underworld from monsters who thought they could replace Death and her as leaders. However, in summoning her to come back, she's lost almost all of her memories. This means gathering weapons, picking up abilities, and using both long and short-range attacks to tear through anything in your path.
In case you missed it, here's the latest teaser trailer for it:

At the March 2025 Hololive Super Expo event, we also learned Project Code: Dreams, Holo's Hanafuda,and Petit Holo Village are in development. However, this is the only Hololive roguelike on the horizon so far, though there have been other Vtuber games in that genre like Holocure.
Myriad Death will come to the PC via Steam on March 24, 2025.

More information on the upcoming game Digimon Story: Time Stranger was shared during a presentation at Digimon Con 2025, including a better look at the main characters and story. The game itself is still expected to release sometime in 2025, and it has been confirmed to be coming to both the PC and Xbox Series X/S as well as PS5 consoles.
The new details were shown off by Producer Ryosuke Hara, who explained that the new game's Human World areas will focus on the Shinjuku and Akihabara areas of Tokyo. Meanwhile, visits to the Digital World will be more frequent than in the Cyber Sleuth games. The new player characters in Digimon Story: Time Stranger are named Dan Yuki and Kanan Yuki, and they are elite operators from an organization that investigates anomalies. Players will choose which of the two to control, with the other character going on to provide support from the organization's headquarters. Additionally, Hara confirmed that players will be able to choose Patamon, Gomamon, or DemiDevimon as their starting Digimon, though the game will feature over 450 obtainable Digimon in total.
You can watch the whole presentation via Youtube below, with the section on story and characters for Digimon Story: Time Stranger appearing at around 13:45.

The first we heard of the game was back in February 2025, when a placeholder listing appeared on the Gamestop online store ahead of its official announcement. Said announcement came a little later during the 2025 Sony State of Play alongside a launch trailer.
Digimon Story: Time Strangers will release sometime in 2025 for the PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

Early on in Assassin's Creed Shadows, you can encounter Kuji-Kiri spots where Naoe can perform meditation and complete flashback quests. Each of these quests is a special stealth mission designed to teach you the skills of the shinobi, although some might prove a little tricky.
![]()
Where to Find Kuji-Kiri Mediation Spots in Assassin's Creed Shadows
While Naoe's quest requires you to complete four Kuji-Kiri meditations to view all the flashbacks, the specific spots you visit don't matter. Regardless of which spots you visit, the flashbacks will always play in the same order at the first four.
When you first gain access to the map in Assassin's Creed Shadows, your first task is to find Tomiko in her homestead, but you can tackle a few of the meditation quests before you get to her. There's a fourth nearby too. These are not the only locations to find meditation spots, but they're the easiest to access immediately.

The first Kuji-Kiri spot is just north of your starting point in Makinoodera Temple. Head straight down the path from the temple and you will reach a junction. Take the left and you'll reach a torii gate marking some stairs. Head up these stairs to the Eboshigata Shrine and the first Kuji-Kiri spot is straight ahead of you on the cliff edge.
The second spot is the Rolling Glen, which you will likely pass on your way Tomiko's. The path west of the first Kuji-Kiri spot will take you to another road that heads north past the Tennoji Temple. Once past the temple, you'll reach a junction. Head right and eventually the Kuji-Kiri spot will be on the left.
The third spot is incredibly easy to find. Once you've reached Tomiko's Homestead, head all the way to the east to find the spot next to a waterfall.
The fourth can be found in Kawachi Heights to the southeast of the hideout. Head back out of the hideout and return south (turn left from the hideout) and continue until you reach a bridge. Take the path left of it. When the path forks, go left and take another left at the immediate crossroads. Follow this road until you cross a bridge and see a lantern at a fork in the road. Head right through a torii gate and continue up the hill to find this spot.
![]()
How to Complete the First Kuji-Kiri Meditation Quest
Initially you have to follow Mitsu to retrieve a katana. After the cutscene, you'll need to climb the hills while avoiding enemies along the way. Once you pass a bridge, immediately duck into the bushes on the left and follow them up the hill to avoid the enemies that start walking down towards you. At the end you'll find a dead body and a cutscene will begin.
After the scene, continue along the path. As soon as you pass a stream, go prone into the grass on the left and follow this until you reach a rock blocking your path. This is probably the toughest part of this flashback because there are a lot of guards in the area. But if you keep moving and stay vigilant for the immediate soldiers, you should be fine.
Wait until the visible guards turn away from you and crawl across to the grass on the right. Keep moving through the grass, following the paths up the hill and dodging any guards who might walk in your direction. Eventually you'll reach a bridge. Check back on the guards to make sure no one is looking at you, then dash across the bridge. From here, you're safe to continue along the path. You'll encounter more cutscenes and an easy fight.
![]()
How to Complete the Second Kuji-Kiri Meditation Quest
While the first quest was easy, the remaining Kuji-Kiri meditation quests in Assassin's Creed Shadows will test your stealth abilities a little more.
After the cutscene, go and speak to Mitsu and you'll get a marker for the shrine. Follow it until you see people running away, mentioning that bandits have taken over the shrine. You'll need to stay out of their way to retrieve Mitsu's scroll. There are two main areas you need to worry about, the entrance area and the main shrines.
In the starting area, there is a bandit patrolling. Stick to the left and move between bushes when he's looking away until you reach the river. Don't worry about the other two, they're too distracted.
At the river, you're free to continue upwards without being seen. However, as you approach the top area with the three shrines, you ideally want to be on the right. The scroll you want is in the furthest right shrine, and the best way to grab it is to hug the far wall, and slip around the corner to quickly grab it.
To leave, retrace your steps, and now you have quicker route across the river as there is a set of stairs going up to the main area. Repeat the process of crossing through the bushes and then return home.
![]()
How to Complete the Third Kuji-Kiri Meditation Quest
This quest sees you infiltrating an outpost in the snowy mountains under the instruction of Momochi Sandayu. Speak to him at the top of the stairs before returning down the hill and climbing the ladder on the left.
The first sequence introduces you to swinging with the grappling hook. You'll need to swing from the first rock to the next, before using two swing points in quick succession. This is a good opportunity to practice grappling a second point in mid-air, as there are no consequences to missing the jump. After landing in the haystack on the other side, slip through a gap in the bushes, cross the bridge and head left up the hill. Eventually you'll be able to climb a ladder onto a rock with a fallen log. Use this log to reach a grapple point and swing into the outpost.
The route through here is mostly linear, but it is easy to trip up and end up on the ground or in a place you shouldn't be. From the watchtower, hop to the next wall, quietly slip past the guards in this section (they don't turn around) and jump through the hole in the wall. Now hook up to the roof of the building.
From here, do not leave the rooftops. Instead, swing from here to the opposite roof, jump to the tree and then swing to the right-hand building in the next area. Here you can eavesdrop on some enemy soldiers from the roof. After they're done, swing to the large watchtower and climb up. Again, do not land in the lower areas. Stay on the higher levels.
After examining the body, you can jump from the watchtower, slide through the forest and follow a path back to Sandayu, completing the flashback.

How to Complete the Final Kuji-Kiri Meditation Quest in Assassin's Creed Shadows
There's a lot of plot to start this final Kuji-Kiri meditation quest in Assassin's Creed Shadows. The choices aren't consequential, although Naoe does seem cooler if she speaks up for Iga. You'll then have to fight another Iga member in a duel. Focus on parrying and dodging over going on the offense.
Eventually, you'll be placed at the bottom of a fort with Naoe's father. Head up the scaffolding and follow the hill upwards. You can find a tree at the top that allows access to the fort. After another scene with your dad, the stealth mission begins.
Use your grappling hook to climb up the large tower, jump to the next and hop down to the next ledge. This next part requires you to be quick as well as stealthy, as you'll need to distract a guard to slip by unseen. Ignore the gap in the fence (this only leads to you walking into a guard) and instead go to the locked gate at the end. Whistle to the guard and immediately climb the gate. Hop to the next ledge, duck into the shadows and quickly (but quietly!) move to the other side and climb another gate. If you're too slow, the guard will come back and see you, so be careful. The two guards on the second ledge are too distracted to notice you if you don't approach them.
After eavesdropping, the general advice for the next part is stick to the rooftops. Turn right, cross the ledge to the roof, jump to the next one on the left. Jump the wall, climb the gate, then follow the rooftops around to the far building in the next courtyard. Drop down on the far side and slip into the window to complete the quest.
Assassin's Creed Shadows is now available for PS5, PC and Xbox Series X/S.

Studio Orange finally shared an update on the Trigun Stargaze anime, the series that will follow the Trigun Stampede reboot, and it involves a tentative release window. We won't see the new show until 2026. However, the studio and Crunchyroll already both confirmed that the show will be streaming on the service, just like its predecessor.
The announcement included a few other details. For example, there's new key art from Kiyotaka Oshiyama. We also know Kazuyuki Fudeyasu will write its scripts, Kouji Tajima is the character designer, and Masako Sato will direct it.
Here's the new Trigun Stargaze key art:

While we were waiting for this latest anime news, a lot of merchandise appeared. Kotobukiya announced new figures based on this adaptation. In addition to one of Vash the Stampede, a Nicholas D. Wolfwood one is in the works. The last update on that from January 2025 involved Kotobukiya sharing an unpainted prototype. SuperGroupies also released a number of clothing items like wallets and coats based on characters from the series.
Trigun Stargaze will begin airing worldwide in 2026, with Crunchyroll handling streaming of the anime outside of Japan. Trigun Stampede is available now. Dark Horse Manga handled the manga.

Nintendo announced a patch with the company's logo will appear on Seattle Mariners team jerseys starting in 2025. A trailer highlighted how these will look. It also confirmed they will show up for the first time during the season opener game on March 27, 2025.
The video features Julio Rodriguez modeling the new uniform. We first see a Mariners baseball cap on a shelf at his locker next to Mario's hat. The trailer then focuses on the patch that will appear on the left arm of the jersey. It is red with the Nintendo logo in white. It closes out by confirming the March 27, 2025 opening day game, which is against the Oakland Athletics, will mark the first time that uniform will appear in action.
https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1902706809691103249
The video doesn't confirm any kind of Nintendo Night event for the team.
Nintendo isn't the only company teasing a Seattle Mariners crossover for 2025. Toei Animation announced one too. It confirmed there will be a One Piece Night for an upcoming game. That will happen at the home game against the Houston Astros in April 2025. People who get tickets will get a themed t-shirt with Luffy on it while supplies last. There will also be tie-in activities and the One Piece Card Game demonstrations.

Koei Tecmo announced a second Atelier Yumia crossover with a Bandai Namco game, and this time it involves Tekken 8. It will result in free DLC for the JRPG based on the fighter. To go along with it, there's a teaser referencing a critical Heihachi moment in the Tekken series and art of Yumia with Reina from this entry's artist Benitama.
First, here's the Atelier Yumia Tekken 8 teaser trailer. It's relatively short. It also doesn't highlight the outfit she might get based on the series. Instead, we see her approach a cliff while carrying a Puni, the traditional slime enemy from the series, with Heihachi's hair style and beard. After she looks over the edge, she tosses it off and looks knowingly at the camera.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyD40Yq7uP0
While Heihachi appears in the teaser, he isn't confirmed for the crossover. However, Koei Tecmo did mention there will be cosmetic accessories, costumes, and skills based on the series. Since the official art shows Reina and Yumia together, it's also possible Yumia will get a costume based on that Tekken newcomer.
Here's that crossover teaser art from Benitama.

The other confirmed Bandai Namco crossover for the game involves Tales of Graces f Remastered. People will be able to dress Yumia in Asbel's suit.
Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land will come to the PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam on March 21, 2025.

A new Gundam anime series means new merchandise tied to it, so of course there's a gunpla model kit so we can build Amate Yuzuriha's gMS-Ω GQuuuuuuX. Bandai Namco released a HG 1/144 version after the theatrical release of the beginning and ahead of the show's official streaming debut. While this is only a $22 beginner kit, the striking thing about it is how detailed and complex it is. It really does capture the new unit well, and it can be a challenge when it comes to some of the smaller bits.
So to start, the gMS-Ω GQuuuuuuX Gundam kit is a gunpla that can be built by beginners, so don't let that dissuade you from trying to build this model. Pieces are found on sprues A through F, with A featuring multicolor parts. There's also a sheet for G, but that only consists of two translucent blades for its pair of beam sabers, so the bulk of your parts are divided into the other six sprues. You honestly don't need to paint it, due to all of the major colored parts being available alongside stickers and waterslide decals for notable accents. However, I will say that both a nipper and a pair of tweezers feels pretty essential for this build. Some of the parts are just too small or fiddly, especially for the two head options, and it could be too difficult to remove pieces. I mostly used the parts from a generic kit I got off of Amazon for filing and cutting, and it's served me well for $8 for the last few years.

So the tricky thing I discovered about the gMS-Ω GQuuuuuuX Gundam model kit is that the design and execution feels atypical compared to traditional kits. There are lots of small parts. You're dealing with pieces in basically six different colors. You're also getting quite a few optional parts, such as opened and unopened state heads and backpack. The heads and torso both can be a lot! I'd honestly say it's in a good way, however. It's so detailed and there's so much to it. I could see a newcomer maybe being a bit frustrated, especially with some of the tinier red and yellow accents from the A and F sprues on the head. A helpful tip I've found is to actually press the parts onto the gunpa's head before removing them from the sprue with the nipper, to ensure they're properly in place and don't disappear on you. However, no glue is needed and once in place, these parts will absolutely stay there. Plus, if you find it intimidating, just always double check the instructions. They're incredibly clear with detailed visuals, arrows showing exactly where parts go, and even numbers highlighting the order to apply them.
With this upper "half" of the gunpla, I was honestly delighted to see how easy it was to adjust the gMS-Ω GQuuuuuuX Gundam model kit. Though the head parts do fit in place perfectly and snuggly, it isn't difficult to remove them to swap designs. I just preferred the opened state appearance, which is why those are the ones highlighted in my build galleries. The shoulder blade parts can move a bit, for additional posing designs. Plus there's a lot of flexibility and points of articulation on the upper half of the figure.

I also really loved how the intricate nature of the design of this Gundam model really made the torso and legs pop. Like in practice, as you start to build it up, you really see the highlights gradually come together from very simple starts. I went with a completely unpainted build, so someone could see what it looks like with any additional adjustments, and it is absolutely impressive. In fact, it's just a highlight in general for the kit. Every element has that little "extra" that makes it a little more special. Like the beam rifle and shield consisting of multiple parts are great examples as well.
However, I did experience two minor annoyances with this gunpla kit. One is that the finished figure absolutely refuses to hold the Tomenosuke Heat Hawk. I know it's possible. I see it in the official images. But for some reason, neither closed-fist hand part would hold it after I finished the kit. It wasn't happening. The other is that your mileage may vary when it comes to the legs properly staying in place once attached at the hips. The right leg snapped on fine and securely. No matter how I bent it, it stayed on. The left? It liked to fall off! It's why all of m poses don't involve any intricate bending ones in the gallery, as I haven't figured out a good way to ensure it remains in place. To my surprise though, even though the "feet" are a little awkward, it's a very stable kit and otherwise can remain upright and balanced on its own without a stand or support.

The gMS-Ω GQuuuuuuX Gundam is such an impressive model kit given the size and money, and there's just so much to this gunpla. It looks amazing no matter how much investment you put into it. Also, despite it being a 1/144 scale finished figure, it still captures the unit perfectly and does feel like a fun task with some light challenges for an afternoon.
The gMS-Ω GQuuuuuuX model kit is available now, and Gundam GQuuuuuuX will begin airing on April 9, 2025. It will stream on Amazon, Disney+, and Netflix.

At some point, you are tasked with harvesting the flesh of Akka in the Rites of the Deep seasonal quest during Destiny 2's Heresy Act II. This can be a bit confusing as the resource's name doesn't specifically match where you are getting it from.
If you are struggling with the Rites of the Deep quest, here is everything you need to know about finding and harvesting the flesh of Akka in Destiny 2.
Where to find the flesh of Akka
The flesh of Akka is part of several subquests in Heresy Act II that form the bigger Rites of the Deep quest. Eris Morn wants to bind the Echo of the Navigator, and to complete the ritual, you will need to harvest several pieces of this resource.
![]()
All you need to do is explore the regions of the Nether and shoot targets to harvest the five pieces required by the quest. Each region usually has two or three, so it shouldn't take very long.
How to harvest the flesh of Akka in Destiny 2
You can find the flesh of Akka by destroying specific parts of the Dreadnaught, most commonly in the Hall of Souls after the arch and to the left. If you scan the area, they look like the Hive spikes protruding from the ceiling and the walls, and you must destroy them to open objectives in multiple places. Shoot them, and you will automatically harvest the flesh pieces. Getting close will make a target market appear, but we have found that the best way is to scan around.
![]()
Two of the necessary targets to shoot are almost next to each other, with a third being found below the other two. The other ones found in the Fonts might be a little more difficult to spot, but you can just focus on the ones that are easier to find. Then, go back into the Nether and harvest all the pieces you are still missing.
Once you have all the flesh pieces that you need, you don't need to go back, as Eris Morn will summon you automatically to her throne world, completing the quest. You will take part in a short cutscene featuring Commander Sloane, and this will lead into the next part of Rites of Deep, which will be about preparing the ritual and engaging the Hive forces to keep them busy.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is now available for pre-load on Xbox and PC, and we have a fair idea about how much storage space will be required.
For the time being, PlayStation users will have to wait tight till Kepler Interactive reveals more information. If you're planning to play on PC or Xbox, you can pre-download the game. While there's still a month before the title goes live, pre-downloading the files will allow you to jump right in when Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 releases in April 2025.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 pre-load size on Xbox
The file size for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 seems to be slightly larger on Xbox than on PC. Based on the information available from the console store page and social media, you'll need about 42.72 GB of storage space to install the game. This is the same for both the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 pre-load size on PC
![]()
You can also pre-load the game on a PC via the Xbox app, which will require a space of 40.97 GB on your hard drive. If you're subscribed to the Xbox Game Pass, you can also pre-load the game's standard version.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 pre-load size on PlayStation
This information remains unknown as of this writing, but rest assured that the game will launch simultaneously on PlayStation and other platforms. We will have a better idea about the file size closer to the launch date.
How to pre-install Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
The exact procedure will vary based on which platform you're using. If you're using an Xbox console, complete the following steps.
The main method is the same for PC users, except you have to do it from the Xbox app.
No matter when you choose to pre-install, you'll have to wait for the final launch date to gain access.

The Tranq Gun is one of the most helpful weapons you can obtain in R.E.P.O. This weapon lets you stun monsters, letting you throw them into pits, use other weapons more effectively, or laugh at their struggles. Here's how to obtain and use a Tranq Gun in R.E.P.O.
Table of contents
Where to find the Tranq Gun in R.E.P.O.
Every time you complete a level in R.E.P.O., there's a chance you'll find the Tranq Gun in the Service Station shop. It isn't guaranteed to appear on every level, but it can spawn among other items like player upgrades, Shotguns, and various melee weapons. It typically costs between $15,000 to $20,000.
![]()
While the Tranq Gun usually sits on the shelves in the shop's center, you'll occasionally see it on the floor instead. If it doesn't appear right away, play another level and recheck the shop to find a new random assortment of items. Once you're ready to buy it, bring it to the purchasing platform and activate its red button. You'll now have a Tranq Gun for the remainder of your run.
How to use the Tranq Gun in R.E.P.O.
Like other guns in R.E.P.O., you can use the Tranq Gun by picking it up like a regular item, carefully aiming it in front of you, and pressing E to shoot it. Watch where your gun is pointing, as it'll shoot in the direction it's facing rather than where you're looking. If you notice it turning in different directions while wielding it, you may have to rotate it slightly to get the right shot.
The Tranq Gun relies on Energy Crystals for refueling. It has limited charges before its battery empties, requiring you to recharge it at your ship after purchasing some Energy Crystals. While a fully charged Tranq Gun can get you through a level or two without any issues, you'll need to recharge it over time if you use it often.
Is the Tranq Gun good in R.E.P.O.?
The Tranq Gun is one of the best items in R.E.P.O. if you know how to use it. It temporarily stuns enemies regardless of their health and strength levels, letting you escape their attacks, pick them up, or damage them with other weapons. If you're far enough into your run to own a Shotgun, you can stun monsters with the Tranq Gun before finishing them off with a Shotgun shot, eliminating them instantly. This strategy works for any of R.E.P.O.'s entities aside from the Peeper.
If you don't have the funds for a Shotgun or other weapons, you can also throw stunned enemies into pits. This is especially helpful on maps like Headman Manor, which has many massive holes in floors, but you can use this strategy on any level. Similarly, you can toss smaller enemies into Swiftbroom Academy's cauldrons to damage them.

UEFA Dreamchasers is all set to be the next EA FC 25 Ultimate Team promo, and it could be a special one.
For starters, this promo will be a fresh entry to Ultimate Team and feature special cards of Heroes, Icons, and active footballers. While EA Sports is tight-lipped about the campaign items, a few leaks have started doing the rounds on social media. We also have confirmation about the release date from the in-game Weekly Play objective, which gives us an idea of what EA Sports has planned for the next four weeks.
EA FC 25 UEFA Dreamchasers promo players (leaks)
We have confirmation about two major pieces of information related to the UEFA Dreamchasers promo. Since TOTY, this will be the first promo to feature cards with three playstyle+. Moreover, the promo will have Heroes, Icons, and active footballers. All three card types will have separate card designs (Heroes and Icons are confirmed to have three playstyle+).
Here are all the cards that have been leaked so far.
More leaks are expected to arrive closer to the release date.
EA FC 25 UEFA Dreamchasers promo release date
The upcoming promo will be released on Friday, Friday 21, and it will replace the ongoing FUT Birthday campaign. Based on our information, Dreamchasers will be a one-week affair. The new cards will be available in packs starting at 6 p.m. UTC on Friday.
We can also expect new cards to be released as part of SBCs and objectives. EA Sports has released a few brilliant SBCs over the last two weeks, and I hope the trend continues. The upcoming promo could be massive if it features cards with three playstyle+ as part of the SBCs. New evolutions offering the same could also be released as part of the promo, and we haven't had one since TOTY Blueprint back in January.

MLB The Show 25's Franchise mode lets you become the GM of your favorite team, but narrowing down on a choice can be quite hard.
After all, there are plenty of factors to consider before you select a franchise. Once your selection is complete, you're locked to it. Every franchise has different strengths and weaknesses; no two experiences are the same. This guide will provide you with the ten best choices for Franchise mode.
Top 10 Franchise Mode Save Ideas in MLB The Show 25
The top 10 save ideas list doesn't necessarily mean the ten best squads. This guide is more about my considerations for saving ideas, which will be incredibly fun. The teams on this table will be great ideas for every MLB The Show 25 player type.
All these ten teams will throw different challenges, but you can make it harder/easier for you by tweaking the in-game settings. There are nine difficulty levels to master, with the GOAT being the ultimate test. Ultimately, always focus on your Yearly Goal for your franchise, which will be an important parameter for determining whether you've succeeded or failed as a GM.

MLB The Show 25 offers updated squads for all official franchises, but you can tweak it further by using custom squads.
With a few more movements across teams expected before the start of the new season, you can make all the updates on your own with a few simple steps. Alternatively, you can make custom squads from your bucket lists and use them across different game modes.
How to customize rosters in MLB The Show 25
If you've played the previous MLB The Show games, chances are you'll already know the process. In case MLB The Show 25 is your first entry to the series, just continue following the steps mentioned in this guide.

If you're venturing into the cold, hard world of GHOUL://RE, you're not going to have much fun unless you pick up a Quinque, the main weapon you'll be using. To make things a bit hard, not all Quinques are created the same. That's where my GHOUL://RE Quinque tier list comes into play. You'll be able to get the best gear and prevail in no time, trust me.

Full GHOUL://RE Quinque Tier List
![]()
Now, before you prepare the pitchforks, this GHOUL://RE Quinque tier list is subjective, first and foremost. Yes, this is directed at Kajiri and Yukimura users, since I know I'm going to come under fire. Ginkui and 13's Jason are leading the charge in S tier, while you won't find too many issues with the likes of Nutcracker, Aus and other A-tier Quinques.
After that, it's pretty much the Wild West. Even though most of B-tier isn't all that, I wouldn't pick Demon Yamada, Serrate or anything from tiers C and D. Still, that's not an excuse not to have fun! Regardless, let's take a look at each GHOUL://RE Quinque tier in more detail.
S-Tier GHOUL://RE Quinques
![]()
This is what you should be aiming for, but, obviously, the drop chances are a bit problematic. Despite this, I would still advise you to stick through it, because the sheer power you'll have i simply worth it.
A-Tier GHOUL://RE Quinques
![]()
Don't get me wrong, it's still more than worth it to snatch an A-tier Quinque such as Nutcracker and Narukami. They're very close to S-tier in terms of quality and output, it's just that you won't get the sheer damage and impact.
B-Tier GHOUL://RE Quinques
![]()
I wouldn't exactly say the B-tier Quinques are worthless, but would you really choose Chi She over IKA and 13's Jason? Of course, it's still a matter of preference, nevertheless, you shouldn't really complain about these too much, but try to get at least an A-tier, ASAP.
C-Tier GHOUL://RE Quinques
![]()
This is where we get to some questionable choices. Look, for instance, I like Serrate's versatility and the follow-up hit, but other than that, it's pretty underwhelming. The same goes for other entries on this part of the GHOUL://RE Quinque tier list—one or two good things, but lots of glaring holes.
D-Tier GHOUL://RE Quinques
![]()
You know what they say, whenever you think you've reached the bottom, there's a dude incessantly shoveling to get even deeper. In the case of our GHOUL://RE Quinque tier list, that's the D tier. To be fair, you can have some success and fun with these, but the D stands for Diabolical.
Now that I'm done with my bashing, it's officially the end of our GHOUL://RE Quinque tier list. Regardless of which weapon I bashed or praise, you should pick what YOU like and what YOU find fun. Once you're done reading my yapping and you have your weapon, check out our GHOUL://RE clan tier list to group up in style.
