Since 2018, Tabletop Vacations has been organizing immersive events where professional dungeon masters run Dungeons & Dragons games in historic castles in England and the Landoll’s Mohican Castle resort in the United States. The all-inclusive trips are popular with forever DMs who have few opportunities to actually play the game, and they often want to ask the pros for advice on everything from improv to puzzle design to handling difficult situations at the table. So the organizers began thinking of a way to answer those questions and came up with the concept of Dungeon Master University, which will hold its…

Arc Raiders has received a new update today that’s almost entirely dedicated to balance and economy tweaks. Patch 1.3.0 arrived earlier across all platforms, coming in at just under 1GB. This is an especially interesting patch because many of the changes it makes can be seen as a response to player behaviour on Stella Montis, the game’s latest map, which just joined the roster last week. Stella Montis is available for players who’ve put in a decent number of rounds, and its close-quarters, enclosed environments have essentially turned it into the new “PvP map”, where constant action can be found.…

Now that we’re in the thick of the holiday season, there is much gift shopping to be done. While it makes sense to hold out until Black Friday and Cyber Monday to see what sorts of deals all the major retailers are showcasing, you can actually get ahead of things and find some excellent savings opportunities right now. Perhaps it’s time to help your parents finally update their home Wi-Fi. Amazon has its Eero 7 dual-band mesh Wi-Fi routers on sale right now for about 20% off.

A new trailer for Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End’s second season just dropped, and it proves once again why this anime produced by Madhouse and based on the manga by Kanehito Yamada and Tsukasa Abe is one of the best things to come out of the medium in recent years. If you’re expecting quick action and explosive magic from this fantasy series following an immortal elf wizard, you may be disappointed. Half of the trailer shows Frieren traveling with her companions, her apprentice Fern and the young warrior Stark, enjoying the sights, the time spent together, and the beautiful things they…

Presumably as a way of marching ever forward towards its (alleged) 100 million player goal for Battlefield 6, EA has announced that the multiplayer shooter will be getting its first free trial later this month. This is, of course, specifically for players to sample the core, paid component of the game, as the recently launched Redsec remains free-to-play. Redsec, however, offers modes like battle royale and Gauntlet, which aren’t quite the traditional Battlefield experience. To see this content please enable targeting cookies.

We’re cruising right toward the end of the year with Thanksgiving just over a week away. That means the biggest sales event of the year is right around the corner. I’m of course talking about Black Friday weekend, and to a lesser extent, Cyber Monday (which at this point is starting to turn into Cyber Week). Across those days, you can expect to find huge discounts on everything under the sun from beauty products to tech accessories to home goods. Right now, though, Amazon has already kicked off a handful of its reduced prices with a series of Early Black…

Like many kids who grew up in the 2000s, I spent weekends at my friend’s house glued to their GameCube. We’d alternate between multiplayer titles, but the one we spent the most time on was Kirby Air Ride, a quirky racing game from 2003. It wasn’t a household staple like Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, but rather a quieter, “If you know, you know,” type of game. We’d sit on the floor, looking up at the massive living room TV, completing every box on the in-game checklist of achievements. Once we were done, we moved the save file onto my memory…

Unless…?”From now until February 18, 2026, Among Us players can add the Stardew Cosmicube to their collection for free.
