Helldivers 2 players have spent their time in the galaxy since launch learning how to work together for a common cause. When the Automatons mysteriously returned to menace the galaxy, tacticians would take to X and Discord to encourage fans to hit the right planets. Super Earth asked Helldivers to kill two billion bugs, and the player base pulled it off within hours. But the biggest coordinated effort that players have pulled off is not against the bugs or bots, but against the game’s publisher, Sony — and after a weekend of protest, the Helldivers scored a massive triumph.

Khadgar has dispatched Alleria Windrunner on a dark mission, one that portends an uncertain future for Azeroth. Before she departs, she visits her lost home of Silvermoon on a mission of peace and connection. Much remains unsaid between Alleria and her son, Arator—hindered by fear and misunderstanding—but Alleria would have her son know his mother and her intentions before a new evil threatens Azeroth again.

Blizzard has released a new Warcraft Short Story called «A Whisper of Warning»!

HAEGIN’s Play Together just dropped some fresh content and the story behind it is heartwarming. Well, we’ll tell you the story and about the new content Ms. Quinn and Trey’s Story in Play Together in a bit. But before that, let me remind you that this mobile social network game has hit three years!

Skyrim was 2011. Fallout 4 was 2015. Starfield was 2023. Development cycles are growing longer all across the industry, but for Bethesda in particular, it's felt like the company has really struggled to create a consistent pipeline — especially in the last decade or so. This is even more apparent when you factor in projects like The Elder Scrolls 6, which was barely a concept when it was first announced in 2018.

As Plunderstorm has ended and set sail for fairer seas, Lead Software Engineer Orlando Salvatore shared a short retrospective celebrating the heart and innovation that went into creating the standalone event! Plunderstorm AnnouncementPlunderstorm Mid-Point Statistics$50k Creator Royale Spanning just over a month, the 60v60 Battle Royale activity was an instant success! Serving as a team lead on the goblin workshop that is Blizzard's secretive experimental gameplay group, Lead Software Engineer Orlando Salvatore shared his thoughts on Twitter today, detailing innovation and experimentation that went into creating the limited-time event, making it as streamlined and user-friendly as possible for both veterans of the game and new players.

The next game's protagonist seems like an obvious choice following the success of the Amazon Prime live-action adaptation. The Amazon series followed three main protagonists: Lucy, a naive vault dweller discovering the wasteland for the first time, Maximus, a squire of the Brotherhood of Steel, and Cooper Howard, a former Hollywood actor who mutated into a ghoul after the bombs fell and became a bounty hunter.

One of the characters being explored in the War Within is none other than Magni Bronzebeard, who we haven't heard from much since Battle for Azeroth. Magni is further explored in the Ringing Deeps, the second zone of the War Within, and an important event happens to him!
