The wasteland can be a hard place to survive, and the Commonwealth in particular is full of dangers.

Fallout is more popular than ever, and that's all down to Lucy and the gang's trek through post-apocalyptic Los Angeles in Amazon's TV show. It's convinced more people than ever to check out the series for the first time, with many confused as to which game they should start with. Fallout New Vegas is as good a place as any, widely considered the best in the series, but just be aware that the fanbase is full of evil, cruel individuals.

Ubisoft has responded to the ongoing backlash against the Star Wars Outlaws season pass, insisting Jabba the Hutt is part of the experience for all players.

Starfield players are calling for a new quality-of-life fix to deal with a minor issue in the game.

Developer Rare has kicked off the closed beta for the PS5 release of multiplayer pirate game Sea of Thieves.

Players of wacky co-op horror game Content Warning are being asked by publisher Landfall if their wildest recordings can be used for a lost footage project which would see it hidden in-game for other players to find.

World of Warcraft recently implemented a restriction for new accounts in Classic Season of Discovery that stops them from trading with other characters, using the auction house, or sending and receiving in-game mail. These limitations, imposed on World of Warcraft accounts until they have had a paid subscription for at least 30 days, were added for similar reasons as last year’s restriction on WoW token purchases.

Earlier this week, Blizzard announced restrictions for new accounts and their characters on Season of Discovery realms. In the official forums, Senior Game Producer Tom Ellis has commented on the change, clarifying that new players will still be eligible to receive items and gold from helping friends — just not trade them away through mail, trading, or the Auction House.

Amazon‘s Fallout TV show has been renewed for a second season.

Amazon’s Fallout TV series has looked increasingly promising with each now showing, and ahead of its imminent premiere, excitement is continuing to build. Interestingly enough, it looks like confidence about how the show will do is also high at Amazon- high enough, in fact, that plans already seem to be in motion for a second season.

The Ace of Nightmares has finally been found, just in time for the Darkmoon Faire to go live tomorrow! The most elusive of the new Phase 3 Darkmoon Faire cards, the Ace of Nightmares is an integral part of the turn-in for the Darkmoon Card: Torment, a new trinket available as of Phase 3 of Season of Discovery. Up until now, no one had reported the location of this card's holder — but, on the eve of the Darkmoon Faire, Wowhead user Rfivealive555 reported that the card drops from Dreamscythe and Weaver in the new Sunken Temple raid! The four new Darkmoon Decks debuting in Phase 3 provide several powerful trinkets after turning them in, including Darkmoon Card: Torment and Darkmoon Card: Sandstorm. With the discovery of the Ace of Nightmares, all the important Ace cards have now been found — so you can theoretically grab the trinket you want this Darkmoon Faire!
