New World is getting an event, Luck of the Bones, starting next week on August 16th. The event promises “better than usual” rewards for taking part and defeating the spawns in the world.
Loot collector Rafflebones is the key to the event, and things will work like this. You'll have to find interdimensional portals that are opening all around Aeternum. The portals will work as world events, where you and others nearby can summon Rafflebones to challenge him for his loot. Mysterious portals will be anywhere, and you'll have to interact with them in order to summon the loot collector. The encounters are timed, because if you don't defeat him within a certain period, he'll flee the dimension and you'll have to find another portal to take him on again.
He will be appearing throughout Aeternum at different points, and you can defeat him for loot up to three times a day, with the daily reset happening at 5 AM local time. As long as you deal a minimum amount of damage during any encounter with him, you can earn some rewards. Taking him on and defeating him will get you these guaranteed goodies:
While other events have let you defeat these types of bosses more than a set limit of times for lower-tier rewards, the Luck of the Bones event doesn’t have this in its announcement. It seems that the three-time cap is a hard limit, but the rewards are definitely of a higher caliber than some of the other world boss loot.
The New World team has explained their efforts to make event rewards feel more useful and to offer guaranteed rewards, especially if they’re Legendary. This event seems like another one of those opportunities.
Luck of the Bones will run from August 16-29th.

Deathground has received a brand new gameplay trailer, three years after it was originally revealed. The new trailer shows more of the dinosaur co-op survival game, which has inspiration from Jurassic Park and the Alien Isolation game. Players have to work together to get through the Deathground while avoiding the hungry dinosaurs.
I like Warframe, Digital Extremes’ shockingly enduring free-to-play action RPG, but I do find its sci-fantasy direction a bit much. The mashing together of tinted alloys and astral flame, the blend of over-the-shoulder shooting and swordplay, the environments that occasionally look like GPU boxart on steroids – it’s impressive, but a lot to digest.

Legendary armor is especially rare in Baldur’s Gate 3. While there are plenty of incredible armor pieces to find throughout the game, only five that we’ve found so far are Legendary. They’re also all only found in Act 3, so you could be playing for 50+ hours before you find your first set of Legendary armor. And these armored outfits, gloves, helms and shields are absolutely worth tracking down. Instead of completing tricky puzzles, these artifacts are carried by powerful NPCs you’ll need to defeat. Take the Legendary loot for yourself — here’s where to find every piece of Legendary armor in Baldur’s Gate 3.
Legendary Weapons are the apex of gear in Baldur’s Gate 3, the best-of-the-best tools to facilitate the destruction of your enemies.
