PCGamesN Thursday, May 15, 2025 7:32 AM  A new Diablo 4 update has rolled out, and it hasn't taken long for players to spot some changes that weren't listed in Blizzard's blog posts. Diablo 4 patch 2.2.1 brings buffs to several classes, but it also includes some welcome quality-of-life improvements that weren't mentioned before, along with kickstarting a new Diablo 4 Mother's Blessing event offering bonus gold and experience. It's not all good news, however; an apparent stealth adjustment to one of Season 8's strongest boss powers has dramatically reduced the viability of a handful of builds.

PCGamesN Thursday, May 15, 2025 7:13 AM  Whether it's Fallout, State of Decay, or Dying Light, when it comes to post-apocalyptic shooters, you want to feel like the entire world is against you. Tough enemies. Realistic weapon behaviors. A dynamic environment where NPCs and monsters live out their lives of their own accord, seemingly indifferent to your suffering. These are the core components of a survivalistic FPS. Six months since it was released, Stalker 2 is still going strong. But GSC has a lot more it wants to achieve. From the combat to the trademark A-Life system, the new Stalker 2 update makes the entire game feel more alive and more dangerous.

PCGamesN Thursday, May 15, 2025 6:13 AM  Ubisoft has been hit with hard times lately. Far Cry 6 let people down. Skull and Bones struggled to find form. Xdefiant never really got started, and has since been shuttered for good. But maybe things are starting to turn around. Assassin's Creed Shadows is a success, The Division 3 is in the works, and Rainbow Six Siege X is scheduled to arrive in June. Even Star Wars Outlaws, Ubisoft's underloved and overlooked tie-in shooter from August of last year, is getting better. If it put you off nine months ago, or you've never tried it before, the new Star Wars Outlaws update fixes one of the most irksome combat problems and adds new missions.

PCGamesN Thursday, May 15, 2025 6:13 AM  The Be Quiet! Light Mount keyboard focuses on two key areas: lots of RGB lighting and quiet operation. It throws in a handful of extra gaming keys and a multimedia knob, but effectively that's it for overall features. So if you want a keyboard that will dazzle with its lightshow without distracting with its typing noise, it's potentially the one for you. This keyboard is one of two that Be Quiet! just launched as its entrance into the gaming peripheral space. Its sibling has a clever modular design that earned it a place on our best gaming keyboard guide, and you can read more about that model in our Be Quiet! Dark Mount review. The Light Mount is worthy of a place too, based on its light show alone, but is there more to it than just a load of lights? I've been testing it as my daily driver for writing, gaming, and more for the last few weeks to find out.

PCGamesN Thursday, May 15, 2025 5:59 AM  When is the Soulframe release date? The upcoming fantasy MMORPG from the creators behind Warframe has been on our minds since it was first announced in 2022. More recently, developer Digital Extremes has revealed story details and gameplay trailers that give us an idea of what to expect from Soulframe's beautiful open world that establishes its themes of climate change and environmental destruction. Soulframe certainly looks and feels very different from its sci-fi sister, Warframe, instead, it takes cues from our favorite fantasy games. However, there are plenty of parallels to delight long-time Warframe fans and new players alike once the MMORPG arrives.

The traditional image of a custom gaming PC is a hulking behemoth of a machine, with frantically spinning fans, blazing rainbow RGB LEDs, and a monstrously large graphics card.

Getting the best units in Anime Saga is the most important thing. However, even when you have the best units, with the best stats, there is one more thing you should aim for to give you an even bigger edge: Traits. Traits are passive effects each unit in your team can have, and they can really heat things up, especially during end-game. To help you pick the best traits, we made this Definitive Anime Saga Trait Tier List.
Anime Saga Trait Tier List
Traits can really push your characters to do even more damage and even get a few passive abilities. Unfortunately, just like the units and the stats, the Traits you get are completely random, and many of them have a <1% chance of rolling. These traits are a waste unless you use them on the best units.
SS-Tier
S-Tier
A-Tier
B-Tier
C-Tier
That's all there is to it. Have fun rolling (and rerolling) Traits until you get some good ones. If you haven't already, check out our Anime Saga codes for some free crystals and currency.

There is over three weeks to go until the Nintendo Switch 2 launches worldwide despite the ongoing worries regarding US tariff changes and other worldwide events hindering supply, though I am happy to confirm that I was able to grab not one, but two pre-orders of the Mario Kart World version of the console ahead of release.
Why two? Protection in case one gets cancelled. We have all been there before on a new console release where a company takes on too many pre-orders and ends up cancelling one, leaving you without a system at all on launch or having to scrounge each page, refreshing every minutes in hopes that pre-orders randomly appear (they don't, but we pray they do.) I'll likely send a console pack or give the second console to a family member for cost if I end up getting both. No way am I joining the scalper hoard. No sir.
Thankfully, with three weeks to go, some sites are starting to add more pre-orders, but that does beg the question: Were you able to secure your own pre-orders? And if so, what games do you plan to get at launch? (There is a lot after all, I don't know how I'm going to find time for both Mario Kart and the new DELTARUNE chapters, to name a few.)
And if you weren't able to secure a pre-order, how come? Were you unlucky? Are you giving the system a miss at launch on purpose to wait for another version of the console down the line, or waiting for the holiday season? I'm genuinely curious what everyone was able to secure and would love to hear about your experiences in the comments below.
Either way. If you did get the console, I hope to see you all in Mario Kart World for the next month, where I will be playing nothing but the new knockout mode, sweating on Rosalina, trying to climb whatever arbitrary ranked or points system the game has.
See you there!

Chapter 2 of Doom The Dark Ages introduces you to Hebeth, and there's an intriguing secret hidden behind the Flaming Door, which is a tough puzzle to crack.
The flame-engulfed doorway can be found towards the end of Hebeth, and it's an easy one to miss. The doors are always on flames, which have to be turned off to discover the secret, and contribute towards getting 100% progress on the mission.
How to solve the Fire Door puzzle in Doom The Dark Ages
It's very hard to miss the flaming doors due to their appearance. To solve the puzzle, look to the door that's opposite of the puzzle.
Is Solving the Fire Door puzzle worth it?
If you're concentrating solely on the main quests and don't care about the side content, you can avoid this puzzle. The room offers you 9x Gold pickups, that are helpful for upgrading your weapons and Shield.
You'll also encounter a Hell Knight at this location, and defeating him will open a path to getting a Life Sigil. The rewards could have been better, but it's still a cool secret mission to complete. Moreover, completing it is necessary if you're looking to 100% the game.

McDonald's Pokémon cards are back for 2025 with a distinct Dragon-type theme. The set launched earlier in 2025 in the States but is now slowly being shipped elsewhere around the world. The UK is expected to get it around Summer.
For any collectors out there or those trying to see if the cards they pulled from their small pack of a couple of cards are worth a quick buck, it's worth seeing what's on offer and how much other trainers are paying for them to complete the master's set of 15 cards.
Below you'll find a full list of every card on offer, as well as their current value. Note that these values are subject to change, so we have mashed together the lowest and highest prices we have seen from the set so far (not including those who are just asking for way too much money than they need to be.)
All Pokémon McDonald's card prices for 2025
Prices are fluctuating all the time with the cards, with some selling for as low as a couple of bucks, while some can get a lot more. Most collectors, though, are looking to get a bundle of all 15 cards to save buying greasy food—can you blame them?
In total, you can get the whole set for around $15-20 if you play your cards right, the price of a couple of Happy Meals without the need to either waste food or eat the amount of grease that comes in each meal. If you want to get a couple of cards, they are pretty inexpensive this time around and aren't as expensive as some in previous years.
Either way, good luck with your collecting, trainers! Hope you get the cards you were looking for.
