People reported an issue with the Code Vein II Character Customization saved appearance data disappearing in both the Character Creator demo and full game, and Bandai Namco said a fix is in the works. It confirmed on social media that it is aware of the problem. While there are patches 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 live, they don't fix the issue yet and it is present during the advanced access period for Deluxe and Ultimate Edition owners.
The problem with Character Customization save data disappearing happens if someone resumes a Code Vein II file by choosing to either load a save or hitting continue. If they do that and then enter System settings or Photo Mode anytime after without first going to the MagMell Hot Spring's Dresser and going into Character Customization, you will lose your modifications. However, the company noted that making one of the first things you do after loading going to the Dresser and double-checking your appearance will keep the issue from happening. If you do that first, then you can use Photo Mode or adjust System settings without any issues.
Meanwhile, the 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 patches do add new gameplay elements and should be downloaded before playing. One element is Regional Pathos that gives you buffs by going to Pathos in the field. The other is a Buddy action called Restorative Offering that will restore your health.
Here's the Code Vein II launch trailer, in case you missed it:
Code Vein II will come to the PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC on January 30, 2026, though advanced access already started and a Character Creator demo is live now.

Back in June 2025, Good Smile Company announced it would release a Nendoroid of Eve from Stellar Blade, and now the figure has a 2026 launch window. It will show up first in Japan in July 2026. The worldwide launch will then follow in Q4 2026. She costs ￥7,600/$46.99. Buying her through Good Smile Company instead of other places like Amazon or Crunchyroll nets you a bonus canned drink accessory she can hold.
Eve is a fairly standard Nendoroid. She comes with three face plates, with one featuring a neutral smile, another looking a bit gentle and melancholy, and a third that makes her look like she's shouting angrily in the midst of a fight. She is in her Planet Diving Suit (7th) costume, which is her default look, and her Blood Edge Blade. She also has a Fusion Cell she can hold, and if you get her direct from the company can look like she's holding and offering someone a can of soda.
Here's a closer look at this Eve figure from different angles and with her accessories.
And this is what the extra accessory looks like if you go directly through the company.
While this is the first Nendoroid based on the series, we have seen other Stellar Blade figures appear. These included not only Eve, but also characters like Tachy.
The Stellar Blade Eve Nendoroid will show up in Japan in July 2026 and worldwide in Q4 2026. Pre-orders are open until March 18, 2026. The game is available on the PS5 and PC.

The Headwinds update has dropped different types of Rubber Ducks that you can find in ARC Raiders, and getting them could certainly make you pretty wealthy.
Rubber Ducks have always been a popular item among the playerbase, despite not having any practical use. The Headwinds update has added more types to collect, so let's find out how.

All Rubber Ducks in ARC Raiders
As of writing, there are seven types of collectible Rubber Ducks you can find in ARC Raiders. This is based on the types that the community and I have discovered. If there are more, I will add them to this guide.
The process of obtaining all types of Rubber Ducks is the same. However, the ones that are rare will be harder to find.
How to get Rubber Ducks in ARC Raiders
To find Rubber Ducks, you'll have to wait for the Bird City map modifier. This map modifier, released as part of the Headwinds update, will be exclusively available for the Buried City map. When the modifier is active, you'll have to search the chimneypots.
If you're lucky, you can find Rubber Ducks among the items that spawn at the chimneypots. To collect, just search the bird nests.
What do with the Rubber Ducks in ARC Raiders
All types of Rubber Ducks that you can find are considered trinkets. You can stack up to 15 of each type in your stash, and then sell them for trinkets. The rarer a Duck, the more money you'll get from your sales.
Hence, you can make plenty of money by finding at least a few of them on your raids in Buried City.

The Revival is one of the two new augments added to ARC Raiders in the Headwinds update, and having the blueprint will allow you to craft it at your workstation.
Like almost all blueprints in the game, there's no fixed location. Since it's of Epic rarity, the blueprint is going to be rarer. Let's look at some of the spots you can potentially target to raise your chances of success.

Best Revival blueprint locations in ARC Raiders
As of writing, you can only find the Revival via blueprints. In other words, a pre-built version can't be found in the loot. One way of obtaining the blueprint is to kill another player who was carrying it in their inventory. However, this method is not only unreliable, but you could end up getting killed in the process.
I found the blueprint from the Village POI on Blue Gate. There's a locked room in this location. I had the key to access the place. Typically, the key spawns randomly in areas tagged as Commercial and Residential.
The locked room rewarded me with the Revival blueprint, but it doesn't mean you have a guaranteed chance. If you're lucky, you might end up with the blueprint from the same location as me. As an alternative, you can try to search areas that are marked as high-tier loot. Every map has such zones, and they're colored in red. However, these spots will also have higher chances of other players, aside from the stronger ARC population.
The Stella Montis map is also a great map to target. I was lucky to obtain the Safekeeper blueprint from the Security Checkpoint room (opens with its own keycard). You can also target the following locations and browse the surrounding areas, as you'll typically find something valuable in the cases and containers.
You can also try your search during the Night Raid map condition if you don't mind trying a harder challenge.
How to craft the Revival augment in ARC Raiders
Once you've found the blueprint, you can craft the Revival augment using the following resources:
The augment is pretty unique as it heals you 1 health every five seconds. The healing is endless, but it stops for 30 seconds if you take damage. Once the 30 seconds are over, your healing will resume. You also get a built-in defibrillator that you can use on yourself or give to someone else.
