Vi and Jinx are the focus You can’t really escapeLeague of Legends’Jinx, as she’s been chosen forall sorts of cross-promotional materialthat you’ve probably seen even if you haven’t played a second ofLeague. Well, now she’s featured in an animated Netflix series namedArcanealongside ofVi(and a few others), and it’s given me a whole new perspective on the character.

We discover an awesome arcade cabinet called Ninja Mystery in the game. We also talk about how we like to laugh, and eat pizza, and hug, and how our favorite kind of animal is a dog named Henry; but you wouldn’t know him because he lives two towns over and goes to a different school....

World of Warcraft’snewest event comes at a time when, historically, we’d all be hoovering up gear for our alts in a flash. But this time around the event is proving to be concerningly stingy with its rewards, as well as respect for players’ time. The War Within’spre-expansion event, Radiant Echoes, doubles down on some of the most baffling design decisions fromDragonflight: an increasing insistence on community-focused events that just do not work....

There are several available, so it can get confusing. If you’re building a Barbarian, pay attention to these Feats inBaldur’s Gate 3....
Killing Floor 3is finally here. The third installment in the decades-old series brings a lot of recognizable faces back, including Firebug, the franchise’s dedicated pyromaniac. In this game, her flaming skills and weapons are the cream of the crop as she sports some of the heaviest-hitting, fun-inducing, Zed-slaughtering guns out there.
