Hey everyone, just wanted to share an update on Brandon. He’s a creator I really enjoy – you probably know him from his documentary-style videos and those awesome street interviews. Sadly, he’s been going through a really tough time with his health for months. He recently let us know he was admitted to the ICU, and things are super serious. Apparently, his heart, lungs, liver, and kidneys are all in really bad shape, and the doctors are working hard to try and get him stable. It’s definitely scary, and I’m hoping he pulls through.

I’ve been going to these yoga sessions, and it’s amazing how many people are showing up – people are coming from all over the US and even from other countries! It all started with just a single class led by this instructor, Trish Sexstella, but it got so popular that it just kept going. She said she never expected it to blow up like this!

The next World of Warcraft expansion, Midnight, takes place in a completely revamped Quel’Thalas, where a massive Void invasion is underway. This invasion is orchestrated by Xal’atath, who weakened Azeroth during the events of The War Within, allowing the powerful voidlord Dimensius to strike. The Void’s goal is to seize control of the Sunwell—a powerful source of magic—and spread fear across the world. Players will need to bring the scattered elven clans back together, team up with ancient allies, and fight alongside the forces of the Light in a final stand against the encroaching darkness. Key locations in the campaign will include Eversong Woods, Zul’Aman, Harandar, and the Voidstorm.

The game, called Horses, was initially banned from Steam. When the developers submitted it for approval in 2023, Valve made an unusual request: they wanted to play the entire game first. According to Pietro Righi Riva, the studio’s co-founder, this had never happened to them before. At the time, the game was only partially complete, but Steam insisted on a full playthrough for approval. Santa Ragione quickly worked to finish the game and provide Valve with a complete version for review.

Despite having an English X (formerly Twitter) account and YouTube channel, the game’s big announcement wasn’t made there first. Instead, it debuted in a video currently only available on the Korean and Japanese YouTube channels.

So, I was reading up on Arc Raiders, and Johan – one of the 3D artists who actually worked on the game – posted the backstory of this character called Scrappy on the official page. It was really cool to learn how they came up with him!

YouTube, which is owned by Google, has recently faced criticism because many creators have had their accounts unexpectedly suspended. This has caused them to lose income and a significant number of videos.

City Trial is a free-for-all battle where players fight until only one remains, while Air Ride feels more like a classic kart racing game, though it’s still pretty wild. In Air Ride, you choose your vehicle before the race and can’t switch it, so picking the right one is important. Here’s a look at some of the best vehicles to use in Air Ride, once you’ve unlocked them.

Even with just short videos on YouTube and posts on X, fans were incredibly excited about the upcoming War Sails update for Bannerlord. The game was already a huge, open-ended experience with fantastic combat and complex warfare, but the developers took it even further by adding ship battles. This addition significantly increases the game’s replayability, and it was already a game you could play for a long time.

Just after announcing upgrade options for owners of Yakuza 0 and the Kiwami games, we’ve learned that the original Yakuza game will be removed from digital stores. When that happens, the digital bundle, ‘Yakuza Complete Series,’ will be updated to include the Director’s Cut version. Also, the PC versions of Yakuza 0, Kiwami, and Kiwami 2 will no longer be available for purchase on Windows 10 starting December 8th. Thanks to Wario64 for letting us know!
