HoYoverse has always struggled to satisfy its hardcore Genshin Impact audience, but the tension came to a boil when the studio confirmed on October 1 that it will not add more endgame content. The endgame dungeon Spiral Abyss will remain the only way players can test their most competitive compositions. And a lot of…

Cyberpunk 2077's been having a bit of a renaissance lately. The hit Netflix spinoff anime Edgerunners, which fellow Kotaku staff writer Isaiah Colbert described as "Studio Trigger at its finest," has pulled people into the dark and gritty world of this game once more. Add to that a number of patches and improvements…

     The best Warzone Cooper Carbine loadout

The best Warzone Cooper Carbine loadout makes short work of enemies up to mid-range. The AR was introduced way back in Season 1 when Vanguard launched, and with the right attachments, it's a force to be reckoned with in this battle royale game.

It saw some buffs in season three that made it truly deadly, and one of the top choices to go with the best snipers in Warzone. The best Warzone Cooper Carbine loadout focuses on a few key upgrades, giving you a boost in accuracy and recoil control, as well as an extended magazine with improved bullet penetration. If the Cooper Carbine isn't for you, other options are available for the assault rifle. So do check out the best STG 44 loadout to see how it stacks up and if it might be the better gun for you.

     Minecraft hosting: how to host a server on Java edition

You need to know about Minecraft hosting if you want to play the popular sandbox game online with your friends. Hosting your own server on Minecraft Java Edition allows you to play in the same world as others at the same time - whether that's for PVP battles, build competitions, manhunts, or just surviving side-by-side.

There are a few different ways to host your own Minecraft server, depending on your skill level. To get you started, Mojang Studios has helpfully provided free of charge server software that you can download. However, this requires some knowledge of java. If you don't have that, there are other ways to get online with your friends.

     The best UGM 8 loadout in Warzone

Trying to find the best UGM 8 loadout in Warzone? Season 4 introduced a new map to the battle royale game and three new weapons to add to your arsenal. The UGM-8 is particularly interesting as it's very lightweight for an LMG, which aren't typically known for their mobility as they're made to keep enemies pinned back with suppression fire.

When customised using the perfect attachments, the best UGM 8 loadout combines the stock weapon's nimbleness and generous magazines to blast rival squads to pieces.

     The best Overwatch 2 hero for each role

The best Overwatch 2 hero for each role is a subjective topic thanks to there being 33 characters and counting. Since regular patches often change things up too, it can be hard to know who the best hero is in this free PC game.

While we may not know the right hero pick for you specifically, we can give you a couple of options to choose from based on the type of player you are in FPS games. Like to carry your team with DPS? Look no further. Whether you're a wannabe aim god, a pocket support, or an aggro tank, we've got you covered with our top two hero picks for every player type in Overwatch 2.

     How to transfer skins to Overwatch 2

Want to know how to transfer skins to Overwatch 2? If you are a veteran of the competitive FPS game, you may have accumulated a vast trove full of stylish skins that you want to wear to make your opponents super jealous. Migrating your Overwatch account progress to the sequel also transfers all sprays, emotes, other cosmetic items, and endorsements, so you don't have to worry about losing anything.

And the best part? If you played the original game on PC and want to know how to transfer skins to Overwatch 2, you don't need to worry. All skins are automatically available in Overwatch 2 if you migrate over from the battle.net version of Overwatch on PC. However, there are some hoops you need to jump through if you played the original game on consoles, as Overwatch 2 requires a Battle.net account to play. Luckily, this is a relatively simple task if you follow these steps.

     The best STG 44 loadout in Warzone

Want the best STG 44 loadout in Warzone? The arsenal of weapons to choose from keeps growing in this ever popular battle royale game, but the STG 44 remains as one of the best assault rifles thanks to its reliability. While guns from Black Ops Cold War entered Warzone with vastly different stats, the STG is one of the best Call of Duty Vanguard guns too.

So now we're entering the next phase of Warzone, with Warzone 2 just around the corner, expect this jack-of-all-trades assault rifle to remain as one of the most popular picks. Since it's immensely popular in multiplayer, a lot of players have already leveled it up fully too, so it's a simple task to build the best STG 44 loadout in Warzone as you probably have most of the attachments already. As expected, the gun also features in our best Warzone loadouts guide, so head there for more meta picks.

     Minecraft build boldly tackles the entire universe

A Minecraft build can fairly comfortably show off just about anything you can think of. One of the greatest joys of this sandbox game is that creativity is basically all that matters, and it means you can build nearly anything you can imagine as long as you've got the patience. As it turns out, that includes the entire universe.

Minecraft Shields are a simple but useful defensive tool to aid in pixelated combat, used to block direct melee attacks or projectiles in the sandbox game. Minecraft shields are not upgradable, so it's one size fits all, but they can be customised using a banner to cover it in your own design.

Since caving in the survival game was made even spookier with the Caves and Cliffs update, a shield is one of the first things you should consider crafting before heading down to the depths of the Minecraft overworld. Not only is it fairly resource cheap, but since you can customise it, you also look fairly cool carrying one around.

     The best MP40 loadout in Warzone Pacific

Want to know what the best MP40 Warzone Pacific loadout is? The stock version of the MP40 is surprisingly strong, featuring fantastic recoil control and an impressive fire rate, but with some work, you can elevate it to the next level. With our customised loadout, you can turn the MP40 into one of the best SMGs in Warzone.

The focus of this Warzone MP40 build is to destroy rival squads at close to medium range, ripping apart enemy armour with hard-hitting shots and a lightning-fast rate of fire. In addition, any extra damage we can squeeze out of this SMG will help you take out enemies quickly. We recommend pairing up the best MP40 loadout with the best Bren Warzone loadout as it's a long-range monster - this combined setup gives you the tools to dominate at all ranges.

When you look at our MP40 loadout, it's not hard to see why this SMG is one of the best Warzone guns available right now. If you find that the MP40 isn't for you and want a decent alternative SMG, check out the best Welgun Warzone loadout to learn how to get the newest gun in the game. But for now, we will go over every attachment you should equip to the MP40.

     How much have I spent on League of Legends?

Want to know 'How much have I spent on League of Legends?' Riot Games' hugely successful MOBA is a free PC game, but if you ask any avid fan if that's the case, you'll no doubt receive a wry laugh in response. The 160-strong champion pool is diverse and wonderful; each character can be purchased with currency earned while playing. The premium cosmetics, however, are bought with real-world money.

These cosmetics - skins, mainly - can be purchased directly using something called RP, purchasable in bulk using your hard-earned cash. These skins change the base look of the character you're playing, with premium cosmetics adding completely new effects, voice lines, and animations. There's also a battle pass that can be bought using RP, this rewards you the more you play, so may seem like the most efficient way to spend your money. This guide will give you the information needed to find out exactly how much you've spent in League of Legends.

As Overwatch went offline on October 3 leading up to the launch of the highly-anticipated Overwatch 2, some hardcore players who didn't know what to do during the downtime turned to a Roblox Overwatch clone to satisfy their urge to play the popular hero shooter. Overblox, a Roblox sandbox game version of the iconic title from Activision Blizzard, is similar to Overwatch — or at least as similar as it can be with lower-fidelity graphics, blocky characters, and far fewer features.

Moonbreaker is an early access turn-based tabletop game by the Subnautica devs, and before you ask, no there isn't a Blue Eyes White Basking Shark piece that inhales everything on the board. There are, however, plenty of sci-fi people who wield spears and guns and do battle by spending a currency called Cinder, if that's your jam.

Whether you're new to tabletop strategy or already like bashing miniatures together, the game makes for a perfectly enjoyable time. I just don't know whether it goes beyond "perfectly enjoyable" into "thrilling", though, and that may be down to its lack of, well, lots of things. Give it time and it may just evolve into a game of serious depth but right now it's a bit too miniature to recommend wholeheartedly.

Somewhere at the edges of the galaxy in No Man's Sky lies a large, verdant planet with an abandoned, but functioning, starter ship on it. I left it there in 2016 after discovering a larger ship out in the wilds, but it's a decision that still haunts me to this very day. You see, I was so taken with my new set of wings that I failed to notice it didn't have a functioning hyperdrive attached, which is needed to punch through the atmosphere to visit another solar system. It also turned out that this particular planet didn't have any of the necessary resources to craft a new one either, leaving my only form of escape back in my tiny little starter ship – which, of course, was now nowhere to be seen. I spent hours looking for that little ship, but the planet was so vast that I never saw it again.

Upcoming aerial survival game Forever Skies doesn't have lots of large planets to lose your only means of transportation in, thankfully. In its Steam Next Fest demo at least, the only things I was able to land my makeshift aircraft on were tiny, rusty platforms perched atop decaying skyscrapers on an Earth ruined by disease and an ecological apocalypse. But that fear of getting stranded somewhere I shouldn't be has never left me, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't just a teensy bit scared of jumping down from my ship and finding I wasn't able to get back up to it again.

secret of mana supergroupies header

SuperGroupies has opened up pre-orders for Secret of Mana-themed accessories. Pre-orders close on October 24, 2022. In total, there are three items that are part of this collaboration: a bag, a watch, and a wallet. The watch will come out in late April 2023, while the bag and wallet will come out in mid-February 2023. [Thanks, 4Gamer!]

The watch's face has a Tree of Mana design on it. There is a see-through display near where the 12 is, and it swaps through the Mana Spirits every day. It will cycle through Wisp, Salamander, Gnome, Jinn, Shade, Luna, Undine, and Dryad. As well, the numbers for the hours are outside of the design, which means that you get a fairly clear look at the Tree of Mana. The watch costs 25,300 JPY, which is approximately $175.10.

[gallery ids="936772,936773,936774" link="file"]

While the watch's band uses authentic leather, the bag is made of synthetic leather. It is "both fashionable and functional," according to SuperGroupies's website. There is a Flammie design on the bag. While the outside of the bag is fairly discreet, the inside pockets have Secret of Mana-themed patterns. The side pockets depict the Mana Spirits, while the interior looks like the Mana Tree, or the cover of the original game.. The bag costs 17,600 JPY, which is around $121.80.

[gallery ids="936777,936776,936775" link="file"]

Lastly, the wallet has a Flammie on the front as well, and there is a Flammie Drum on the zipper. Like the backpack, the design inside the coin compartment looks like the Tree of Mana and the cover art of the original game. The wallet costs 14,300 JPY, or $99.

[gallery ids="936771,936770,936769" link="file"]

The Secret of Mana items from SuperGroupies are available from the SuperGroupies website. International customers can order from the website. The Secret of Mana remake is available for the PS4, PS Vita, and Windows PC. The classic version of the game is available on the Nintendo Switch.

witcher trilogy cyberpunk 2077 sequel

CD Projekt Red has posted a long-term product outlook on its Twitter account, which gives fans a look at what lies in store for The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077. There will also be a new IP codenamed Hadar. According to Michael Nowakowski, who is the senior vice president of business development at CD Projekt Group, the team has not started development on Hadar yet.

The company also revealed further projects and its future moves in a video presentation mainly addressed to investors. CD Projekt group executives Adam Kiciński, Piotr Nielubowicz, Michal Nowakowski led the presentation, which concerned the company's long-term outlook.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EJmgTQ0O8k

The presentation focused broadly on CD Projekt group and its planned moves in the years to come, covering topics like using Unreal Engine, improving the work environment at its studios, and further multimedia plans, including comic books, films, TV series, and more.

For The Witcher, CD Projekt Red plans on making and launching a new trilogy for the series. This trilogy will open with a game codenamed Project Polaris, which will be a "story-driven open-world RPG" based on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. It plans to launch all three games within a six-year period after Polaris comes out. The Witcher 3 will also be ported to current-generation consoles within 2022.

Anothe game, codenamed Project Sirius and developed by The Molasses Flood, will be an "innovative take" on The Witcher's universe and will be an "unforgettable story" for both new and old fans. It is currently in the pre-production stage, and will offer both single-player and multiplayer experiences. Finally, Project Canis Majoris will be a single-player open-world RPG separate from the Polaris saga (though still Witcher-related). It is unknown what studio will develop it, but it will consist of employees who used to work on The Witcher.

There are two ongoing projects for Cyberpunk 2077. The first one is Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, the major expansion announced in early September. It is in the final production phase and CD Projekt Red is developing it. Project Orion is the code name for their Cyberpunk 2077 sequel. They said that it will "prove the full power and potential of the Cyberpunk universe." It'll will likely have a multiplayer component.

CD Projekt Red has not announced an expected release window for any of these new projects. However, Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty should be the first to come out, which will be in 2023.
