Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon has found a home on Netflix as a two part sci-fi epic – but the story seems far from over, with sprawling mythology and massive worldbuilding leaving the way wide open for more stories. Without spoiling any specifics, Rebel Moon: Part Two – The Scargiver certainly leaves the door open for another chapter in the tale, too.

Alongside the righteousness of spreading managed democracy, if there's one thing Helldivers 2 soldiers go to bat for, it's Eagle-1. Throw in the suggestion that the faceless community favorite might actually be an anime girl, though, and down-bad fans aren't just going to bat – they're standing between the NPC pilot and whatever harm might come their way with more vigor than ever before.

It's pretty lonely out there as a Helldiver. Sure, you're surrounded by other Helldivers, and superior officers occasionally give you a pat on the back for collecting your samples and killing bots like a good little soldier, but there are very few NPCs in Helldivers 2 that actually have your back when things get tough. That's probably why so many people have fallen for Eagle-1, a disembodied voice that peppers the battlefield with explosions when asked.

Fire is out of control in Helldivers 2, but thankfully Arrowhead knows this and is working on a fix.

Over a week after Palworld's last big patch, developer Pocketpair has confirmed what the community already suspected: Pal damage got a big, big nerf. Luckily, that nerf was accidental and it's now been fixed with a new update.

fans are in for a treat as a team of talented creators manages to bring one of the game's most haunting characters to life with a shockingly effective animatronic. Introduced in the most chapter of, DogDay has become somewhat of a fan-favorite character given the horrific circumstances of his existence following the events of The Hour of Joy. His iconic design has earned plenty of praise from the community, with many remarking that he would fit right in with the colorful cast of fellow horror franchise.

A brand new and incredibly expensive Helldivers 2 Ship Module upgrade is currently bugged, while one developer recommends simply restarting the game.

Hollow Knight fans parched for more Silksong news are no strangers to disappointment when it comes to the big trailerthon showcases, but this week's Triple-I Initiative stung extra hard.

It might not be very democratic to say it, but it's always been pretty obvious that Helldivers 2's prosperous planet of Super Earth might not be the kindest place in the universe. From the game's in-universe propaganda, the denial of information like the existence of flying bugs, and the fact that Helldivers are treated so poorly, the signs have always been there – just don't tell them I said that. 

Slay the Spire 2 is only happening because the development team was inspired by the community's love for the original roguelike deck builder. 

Playdate came out two years ago, and it’s still miniscule and yellow with a black-and-white screen and a delightful crank on its side. Today, the device has a built-in library of more than 100 titles, none of which are Call of Duty, Dark Souls, The Last of Us or any other big-budget, mainstream game — and this is precisely what makes it so damn charming. The community that’s sprung up around this palmheld is lively and creative, and scrolling through the Playdate tags on itch.io or github feels like hanging out in a friendly underground clubhouse populated by crank-obsessed video game freaks.

The International Game Developers Association (IGDA) has published a call to action warning about the damage layoffs have on the industry.

Earlier this week, the servers supporting online services for all 3DS and Wii U games met their end. Although it's a sad time for anyone who has a place in their heart for the games affected, the community efforts that have followed since are so wholesome that it almost makes the whole thing worth it. Tributes have been flooding in to honor the fallen online modes, and a dedicated subsection of fans are somehow still holding on as the last survivors of the official servers.

Heroes of Crown: Legends, the latest RPG from the creators of Panilla Saga, has just launched its closed beta test (CBT) and is seeking brave adventurers to join!

With Light's Grace finally found in Phase 3 Season of Discovery, players have discovered all locations of the new Class Runes! The Wowhead team has been working hard to update all of our guides to reflect the latest discoveries. Now that every rune from Phase 3 has been discovered, you can use Wowhead's guides to collect them all!Light's Grace proved to be the most elusive Rune yet across all phases, taking a full seven days to be discovered. This is a drastic change from Phase 1 and 2, where virtually everything was discovered in the first 24 — 48 hours — this one was a doozy! Involving a crashed rocket, an ornery mechanical and a Goblin with a rather familiar name, Light's Grace was certainly well hidden — but now you can read the full steps on how to find it in our Light's Grace Rune Guide! A massive thank you to all of our community members who have helped us by leaving comments and uploading data via the Wowhead Client. We are continually updating and refining our guides to be more specific and accurate, so keep checking back!

Miniclip has bought UK developer FuturLab for an undisclosed sum.

Stop me if you've heard this one before: Vault Boy isn't actually giving us a thumbs-up. Instead, the jolly little guy is actually comparing the size of a distant mushroom cloud to his thumb, to see if he's safe from the blast. This has been passed around as fact in the Fallout fanbase for years, but in actual fact, it just isn't true - the original creators of the series really just intended this to be a thumbs-up, nothing more.

OnePlus has initiated the rollout of a fresh update for the OnePlus 12R in India, labeled OxygenOS 14.0.0.505.

A Pokemon fan with amazing artistic skills has recently designed a new regional variant for Oddish, giving the Plant-type creature new evolutions.

Genius Pokemon players have somehow uncovered an RNG exploit in Scarlet and Violet that allows you to generate infinite rare items – including Master Balls – just by changing the date and time on your Nintendo Switch. 

If you ever thought the likes of Pokemon Stadium needed more guns, then I have to say that's oddly specific, but the hit survival game Palword is serving up what you're looking for. 

The Wowhead team is hiring guide writers for our Diablo 4 site again. This is a paid opportunity at competitive freelance writer rates, with payment for any new content you create and for updates to existing pages.

Having released back in 2016, the long-running anime brawler has maintained a solid community as developers QLOC and DIMPS have offered players an exceptional amount of post-launch content, especially for a game that's nearly a decade old. Fortunately for veterans, the experience isn't about to end any time soon as the DLC is set to expand the roster even more.

Only a day after it was claimed we'd driven them back and wiped them all out, the Automatons have returned with a metallic fury. The clankers erupted back onto the Galactic Map and immediately launched an invasion of Cyberstan, the planet housing their creators, the Cyborgs.

US games firm Blizzard has signed a new deal with China's NetEase.

Three months ago, a rumor suggested that NetEase was close to inking a new agreement to bring Blizzard games back to mainland China after the complete shutdown that occurred in early 2023.

The gaming community is filled with speculation over the identity of GTA 6's mystery character, Jason. While much remained unknown since the game's announcement in late 2023, new rumour suggests that we may be on the approach of solving this mystery.

A huge new change just landed in Fortnite today, and very few players seem happy about it.

2024 is only a few months in, but for Amazon Games, it’s been full steam ahead for the organization’s many teams. Some of the highlights include Lost Ark celebrating its second anniversary and New World’s welcome to the Year of the Dragon. Add to that, the business explored the impact of the people behind the games, from spotlighting the teams working on game creation and publishing in its new ‘Meet the Makers’ shorts series, to raising awareness for the many talented game makers with Black Voices in Gaming, to examining the impact of player communities on game development, and much more.

It’s never easy saying goodbye, but video game consoles aren’t people, animals or favourite stuffed toys, so why get upset about it? With the closure of the Nintendo Wii U and 3DS online servers overnight, Nintendo has carved another date into their respective headstones, cutting them off from multiplayer gaming and pretty much any kind of online experiences for the remainder of their usable lives. There’s a reason it hurts, but it almost certainly isn’t because you were still playing on them every day. This is the loss of childhood, the loss of communities and the loss of experiences that you still cherish. This is getting older, and let’s face it, it sucks.

The Helldivers 2 community is a unique place, with more players boasting the ability to commit to the bit than perhaps anywhere else on the internet.

In just two months, the Helldivers 2 community completely wiped out the Automaton forces, leaving only the encroaching Terminid threat from the East. But if taking down the hardest faction in the game seemed a little too easy, you'd be right. We've played straight into Joel's hands.

Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead has released update 01.000.202 and via the patch notes confirmed it addresses general game stability and crashes.

There’s what looks like a bug (not that kind!) in Helldivers 2 that has left some players scratching their heads — and the developer of the game is certainly having fun with it.

The Helldivers 2 community is once again wrestling with the satirical tone of the game and its development team, struggling to glean legitimate information as Arrowhead cautions all democracy enjoyers to "avoid" a "rogue item" in the ship management store called "Catalog Expansion."

A Pokemon fan has recently devised a new evolution for Exeggutor, imagining what a more powerful version of the Grass/Psychic-type creature would look like. Pokemon fans often reimagine their favorite monsters and produce amazing Pokemon fan art, and this is among the best pieces to come out recently.

With the PTR for Diablo 4's Season 4 ending this Tuesday (4/9), and a handful of important interactions still being bugged and non-playable, some players have rallied behind the desire to extend the PTR to identify and provide feedback on additional bugs. Adam Fletcher, Global Community Development Director, went to X (formerly known as Twitter) to respond to players' curiosity: While some players might feel as if their concerns are being ignored, don't! It's important to recognize there are likely many aspects of gameplay Blizzard is looking for data and feedback on, besides the issues the community is zeroing in on. D4 Forum community member boltbane also raised a good point — if Blizzard thinks it's necessary, there's still plenty of time for another PTR before Season 4 officially launches on May 14. PTR Known Issues & What to Expect With the PTR ending tomorrow, what new features or endgame progression are you looking to test next? Let us know in the comments below!

While Rockstar may still be keeping its cards close to its chest regarding ,one actor wants to set the record straight on whether he's in the game or not. Dropping in late 2023, the official teaser trailer for the next entry in the ever-popular franchise took the world by storm, answering many questions while still leaving room for the community to speculate. One source of confusion is who is playing the two protagonists and while no performers have been announced just yet, one theory has officially been debunked.

For years, the Grand Theft Auto (GTA) franchise has captivated gamers with its immersive worlds and intriguing mysteries.
