Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Wednesday, March 4, 2026 7:07 AM The Division 2's new Realism Mode chops back the HUD, ammo and health regen, and is free for a month       It seems like a million years have passed since the release of Tom Clancy's The Division 2, the squalid shooter-looter set in banged-up Washington D.C. In fact, it's only been seven. Which is quite a lot of years, in fairness, but that period also spans a lot of upheaval - the Covid pandemic, Trump's re-election, the exploding popularity of generative AI, the onset of chronic live service apathy, the lingering undeath of NFTs, and the literal invasion of Washington D.C. by the National Guard. Both The Division 2's original looting mechanics and its 100% apolitical regime change storyline now feel to me like the products of a different universe, though Ubisoft have been updating the game and releasing new stuff for it throughout. Their latest addition is a Realism Mode, exclusively available through the existing Warlords of New York expansion, which will itself be freely available to all players until 2nd April. Read more

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Wednesday, March 4, 2026 6:22 AM Attempt to get copyright on wholly AI-generated art gunned down by US Supreme Court       The highest legal authority in the USA has refused to take a case involving a Missouri computer scientist who wants to copyright art created by his own generative AI system. The compsci guy in question, Dr Stephen Thaler, appealed to the Supreme Court justices after lower courts upheld a US Copyright Office decision that his art doesn't make the cut for copyright protection, because it wasn't created by a human. As reported by Reuters, Thaler's generative AI tech is the winningly dorkish "Device for the Autonomous Bootstrapping of Unified Sentience", aka DABUS. He applied for a US federal copyright registration in 2018, asking for DABUS to be recognised as the author of a picture of a train tunnel surrounded by mucky green and purple vegetation, called "A Recent Entrance to Paradise".

Destructoid Wednesday, March 4, 2026 7:50 AM Bizzare Lineage Stand Awakening Guide & How to Get       Your Stand Awakening is essentially a damage boost state that allows you to perform your Stand's ultimate move. While the unlock process is simple on paper, it'll require a lot of grinding. Here's how to get Stand Awakening in Bizzare Lineage. Table of contents How to Get Stand Awakening in Bizzare Lineage Stand Awakening Quest Guide How to Get Stand Awakening in Bizzare Lineage Farm The Self mini-boss for Conjuration 100 To unlock your Stand Awakening in Bizzare Lineage you have to do the following steps: Go to any bus station and take a bus to Bus Station 2. Turn around and go inside the Gym behind the Jotaro NPC. Go to any Yoga Mat and hold E to Meditate (Some Mats are inactive so keep checking for the one you can interact with). You'll spawn in a special area where you can talk to The Self which is a copy of you. Select the "I want to surpass my limits" option (Requires Level 50 & Stand Conjuration 100). This will start the Stand Awakening questline. Upon completing it you will receive both the Awakening and the Ultimate move for your current stand. Activate your Awakening state with H and then while in this state you can perform the Ultimate move with H. Let me give you some tips for the questline. Conjuration Farming: This Inner World that you access via the Yoga Mat in the Gym is the best way to farm Conjuration for your Stand by fighting yourself using the option "Yes" when interacting with The Self. Stand Awakening Quest Guide Here are some tips for finishing the questline: Stand Awakening I: Dio Raid: Go to Bus Stop 18 and enter the gate to the graveyard. Make a left to the cave before you enter the castle. Once through the cave go right to the castle/chapel and you'll find the Dio Raid NPC at the far end of the chapel. For the boss, keep jumping and moving to avoid his hitscan attacks. Kira Raid: Go to Bus Stop 1 and head towards the Rengatei caffe where you can find the Kira Raid NPC across the road to the right. For the Kira boss, make sure to dodge when you start glowing red to avoid the high-damage attack. Spam White Snake Revolver for regular enemies. Jotaro Raid: Go to Bus Stop 2 and go left past the Jotaro NPC around the gym building on the left side where you can find the Jotaro Raid NPC. An easy 1v1 boss that's very solo-able. Stand Awakening II: For the World Events part you can go to Bus Station 1 where WEs spawn every 30 minutes - If you want to speed up the process with a little cheesy tactic you can use a private server and then AFK loop in WEs with an alt account to farm. Stand Awakening III: The defeat The Self part is 13 easy mini-boss fights in the meditation realm via Yoga Mats at the Gym (BS2) that you can easily do alone - This is also the best way to farm Conjuration. Boss: At the end of the questline you'll fight the boss to unlock the Awakening for your current stand. Note that if you switch stands, you'll have to fight this same boss again to unlock the Awakening for that stand. Related: Fighting Style and Sub Ability Tier List Once you unlock your Stand Awakening you can activate it using H and then press H again for your ultimate move. Note that some stands might not have a Stand Awakening yet. That's it and for more Bizzare Lineage guides check out our full list of Perks and Personalities and how to get/reroll them.

Destructoid Wednesday, March 4, 2026 7:47 AM How to turn on and use the train in Phasmophobia       The many locations you can explore in Phasmophobia hide all kinds of secrets waiting to be uncovered. One such secret is the train set, a fun, interactive feature for both you and the ghost that can only be found on one map. The train set is one of the coolest map features you'll encounter while investigating, but figuring out how it works can be tricky. There are a couple of unique controls you'll have to get used to if you want to make it work or shut it off after the ghost messes with it, so here's how to turn on and use the train in Phasmophobia. Table of contents Where to find the train set in Phasmophobia What does the train do in Phasmophobia? How to turn on the train in Phasmophobia All train controls in Phasmophobia Where to find the train set in Phasmophobia Screenshot by Destructoid The train set can be found in the basement at 6 Tanglewood Drive. It's fully interactive, with some fun features you can toggle on and off. The ghost that's haunting your contract can also mess with it, so if you hear any odd noises while investigating, be sure to check out this area in case it happens to be the ghost's favorite room. To find the basement on this map, enter the front door, walk down the main hallway, and stop right before you reach the living room. Turn right and walk forward a few feet before turning left through the next door you spot. Head down the stairs to find the basement. The train set takes up most of the room, so it's easy to spot once you're in the right region. What does the train do in Phasmophobia? You might be curious if there's any larger Easter egg, secret, or puzzle tied to the train at 6 Tanglewood Drive, but unfortunately, it's purely a fun interactive element you or the ghost can mess with while playing on this map. How to turn on the train in Phasmophobia The train can be turned on by activating the second button sitting on the table at the end of it. For the train controls to work, the power must be on, so make sure you find and turn on the fuse box if it's off. There are a couple of fuse box spawn locations around 6 Tanglewood Drive, so it might take you a bit to track them down. All train controls in Phasmophobia Screenshot and remix by Destructoid There are four train controls you can find and interact with, all of which are located on a table near the back end of the train set, close to the back wall in the basement. Here's what each one does. The first button causes the train whistle to go off. The second button turns the train on, causing it to start driving around the track in a loop. The third button causes smoke to blow out of the train. The fourth button turns on the lights in the tiny village surrounding the train. There's plenty more to uncover around 6 Tanglewood Drive after interacting with the train set. Next, you may want to learn all 6 Tanglewood Drive rework Cursed Possession locations and how to complete the Entangled Terror challenge.

Destructoid Wednesday, March 4, 2026 7:45 AM How to get Hawkstriker Hatchling in WoW Midnight – One Adventurous Hatchling guide       The One Adventurous quest is a fun side activity to complete in WoW Midnight, and you can get the Hawkstrider Hatchling pet after doing the task. While the quest in itself is pretty simple, it doesn't activate on its own. Moreover, it will be helpful if you know what needs to be done to get your rewards. Let's find out how you get your own pet in WoW Midnight. WoW Midnight One Adventurous Hatchling walkthrough To start the quest, you'll need to head to the Eversong Woods zone. Before that, you have to complete Eversong in Reprise achievement. You finish the achievement once you complete the main scenario quests in the Eversong Woods zone. Getting the achievement isn't that hard; it's more a matter of how long it will take. You'll also need to be at level 80 or higher and then complete the required quests. Head to the following coordinates (56.8, 35.6) and speak with Vaelith Sunplume. Screenshot and remix by Destructoid Then, pick up and complete the following quests: A Hungry Flock One Adventurous Hatchling A Roos-ed Development All the quests are easy to complete. To complete A Hungry Flock, farm the nearby lake and kill Gloombelly Toads to get six Frog Legs. Then, follow the quest marker for the One Adventurous Hatchling, and you'll find the Hatchling on a table. Interact with it to send it to your home. Finally, A Roost-ed Development requires you to farm Golden Sunleaf in the lake (same area where you slay the toads). You'll find highlighted plants in the location, so you'll know what to pluck. Image via Blizzard Once the three quests are done, return to Vaelith Sunplume to get the First Step into Parenthood, which rewards you with 250 Silvermoon Court rep, a Hawkstrider Egg, and progress around the One Adventurous Hatchling quest. Getting the Hawkstrider Egg is key; once done, you have to wait for 24 hours. Interact with the egg after 24 hours have passed, and you'll get your Hawkstrider Hatchling pet.

Destructoid Wednesday, March 4, 2026 7:10 AM How to complete Entangled Terror in Phasmophobia       Following the remodel of 6 Tanglewood Drive in Phasmophobia, a new trial focused on exploring this location was added to the event board. The Entangled Terror challenge asks you to spend many investigations at this one location. This special trial is designed to be a tough one with a lofty goal that will likely take you a long time to work through. It does come with an exclusive reward, though, so it's certainly worth tackling. Here's how to complete the Entangled Horror challenge in Phasmophobia. Table of contents How to get the Entangled Terror ID Card and Badge in Phasmophobia Phasmophobia Entangled Terror challenge tips Spend time learning the map Play with friends Rely on hard evidence Try out some Cursed Possessions Take your time Entangled Terror challenge reward in Phasmophobia Entangled Terror ID Card and Badge appearance in Phasmophobia How to get the Entangled Terror ID Card and Badge in Phasmophobia Screenshot by Destructoid To finish the Entangled Horror challenge, you need to have 50 successful investigations while exploring the 6 Tanglewood Drive map. There are a few specific goals that must be met to officially earn the prizes that come with completing it. Play at 6 Tanglewood Drive. Correctly identify the ghost. Survive until the end of the contract. Repeat this process 50 times. This challenge was added in the March 3, 2026, update, so any investigations you had prior to this date around 6 Tanglewood Drive won't count. Instead, you must embark on fresh investigations to make progress. Phasmophobia Entangled Terror challenge tips The Entangled Terror challenge is tough by design, so working through it can be a tricky endeavor. If you're struggling to make progress, here are the best tips you can use to make this process easier to navigate. Spend time learning the map Screenshot by Destructoid Ghost hunting is so much easier when you're familiar with the location you're exploring, so start by spending some time learning the map layout for 6 Tanglewood Drive. I recommend creating a custom match with the friendly ghost option turned on to freely explore this location without the ghost trying to hunt you down. Play with friends Every ghost hunt is much easier with allies at your side, so try tackling this challenge with friends. Working with other ghost hunters helps you cover more ground quickly, test out more equipment early on, and ensures you have multiple investigators watching and listening for clues. Rely on hard evidence When possible, you should always rely on hard evidence rather than unofficial behaviors or signs. This is the only way to guarantee with certainty that you guess the ghost right. If you check off a ghost without all three pieces of evidence gathered, you may be wrong, which will result in the round not counting at all for the Entangled Terror trial. For the purposes of this challenge, you should always try to play it safe and get all three official pieces of evidence before leaving. Ghost Evidence #1 Evidence #2 Evidence #3 Spirit EMF Level Five Spirit Box Ghost Writing Wraith EMF Level Five Spirit Box DOTS Projector Phantom Spirit Box Ultraviolet DOTS Projector Poltergeist Spirit Box Ultraviolet Ghost Writing Banshee Ultraviolet Ghost Orbs DOTS Projector Jinn EMF Level Five Ultraviolet Freezing Temperatures Mare Spirit Box Ghost Orbs Ghost Writing Revenant Ghost Orbs Ghost Writing Freezing Temperatures Shade EMF Level Five Ghost Writing Freezing Temperatures Demon Ultraviolet Ghost Writing Freezing Temperatures Yurei Ghost Orbs Freezing Temperatures DOTS Projector Oni EMF Level Five Freezing Temperatures DOTS Projector Yokai Spirit Box Ghost Orbs DOTS Projector Hantu Ultraviolet Ghost Orbs Freezing Temperatures Goryo EMF Level Five Ultraviolet DOTS Projector Myling EMF Level Five Ultraviolet Ghost Writing Onryo Spirit Box Ghost Orbs Freezing Temperatures The Twins EMF Level Five Spirit Box Freezing Temperatures Raiju EMF Level Five Ghost Orbs DOTS Projector Obake EMF Level Five Ultraviolet Ghost Orbs The Mimic Spirit Box Ultraviolet Freezing Temperatures Moroi Spirit Box Ghost Writing Freezing Temperatures Deogen Spirit Box Ghost Writing DOTS Projector Thaye Ghost Orbs Ghost Writing DOTS Projector Try out some Cursed Possessions Screenshot by Destructoid Although they're quite dangerous, Cursed Items are also extremely powerful, so if you're ever struggling to get the evidence you need, consider using one of the Cursed Objects around 6 Tanglewood Drive. Exercise caution when doing so, and generally try to stick to the somewhat safer ones that are guaranteed to give you useful information, like the Ouija Board and Haunted Mirror. Take your time The Entangled Terror challenge is permanent, so take your time with it and don't worry about getting it done quickly. It's meant to be more of a long-term goal you slowly chip away at rather than one you work through in a few days. Entangled Terror challenge reward in Phasmophobia Successfully finishing the Entangled Terror challenge unlocks the Suburbanite ID Card and Badge as a reward. This is a set of excsuive cosmetic items you can apply to your namecard. They can only be unlocked through this trial, so you must fully complete it to get them. Entangled Terror ID Card and Badge appearance in Phasmophobia The Suburbanite ID Card and Badge feature the exterior of the 6 Tanglewood Drive map for the overall ID Card background and a small gnome for the Badge slot. It also has the Suburbanite title at the top. https://www.reddit.com/r/PhasmophobiaGame/comments/1rkagbw/new_badge_unlocked/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button If you're up for more trials, there are plenty of other ones you can check off next.

Destructoid Wednesday, March 4, 2026 5:33 AM All new The Division 2 Anniversary season weapons and gears: Stats, Perks, and more       The Anniversary season in The Division 2 has introduced new weapons and gear, including two exotics, which will help you immensely in your hunts. All gadgets and weapons can be obtained for free, and they have their own unique abilities. Let's find out how these new toys work in The Division 2. The Division 2 Anniversary season gear and weapon overview There's a new Exotic in the form of Big Alejandro. This LMB has been a staple of the first Division title, and it's now available in The Division 2. Here's a quick overview of how its Talent: Cover Shooter works. Every bullet fired while under cover raises weapon damage by 1%. This can go up to 100%, and the effect lasts for 15 seconds. The ability gets reset every time you get a kill from cover. The bonus damage will cancel when you exit combat, do a reload, or swap your weapons. You can obtain the Big Alejandro from the Anniversary pass (available from the free track). Image via Ubisoft You can also get the Harrier Pride, which is a new Exotic backpack. This backpack, like Big Alejandro, is also obtainable from the pass. Here's how Talent: Rebalance works. Getting kills and hitting enemies three times creates Red stacks. Each stack provides 0.5% weapon damage. Getting hit three times builds Blue stacks that provides 0.5% Damage Resistance. If you reach 80 stacks, you'll receive a bonus of 0.5% Damage Resistance per Red Stack and 0.5% Weapon Damage per Blue Stack until the next Stack cap is reached. There are two new non-exotics as well that will be part of the Anniversary season. Gear Talent How it Works Gear Shift Perfect Measured The top half of the magazine has 25% rate of fire and -30% weapon damage.
