Even with the release of the 2026 LEGO set, a disappointing issue persists. The original LEGO Dungeons & Dragons minifigures are incredibly rare, preventing fans from completing their vision of the Red Dragon’s Tale as they’d hoped.
Many popular online games, like Call of Duty, Battlefield, and Fortnite, use skill-based matchmaking to connect players for multiplayer matches. While the specifics differ between games, ARC Raiders‘ system is a bit more complex. After the game launched, players suspected it matched people based on how aggressively they played or the quality of their equipment. Embark’s CEO recently confirmed that ARC Raiders does use an aggression-based system. According to the CEO, the game considers how likely a player is to engage in player-versus-player (PvP) or player-versus-environment (PvE) combat when forming matches.
Former New York City Mayor Eric Adams, ever the visionary, birthed the NYC Token to combat antisemitism and anti-Americanism. A noble cause, one might think, were it not for the stench of desperation clinging to the project like a bad suit at a black-tie event.
ARC Raiders, the popular game from Embark Studios that launched in 2025, continues to thrive.

Because of this, our preview will focus more on how the game uses its unique features to tell the story, rather than revealing the story itself – we don’t want to spoil it!
Researchers have developed a new method to detect malicious intent hidden within visually complex QR codes, offering a critical defense against a growing wave of ‘quishing’ attacks.
According to the soothsayers at CryptoQuant (who gaze into glowing screens as if they were ancient flames), the mighty wallets-once swollen with promises of immutable wealth-have begun to deflate. These are no mere peasants moving pennies; these are the aristocrats of crypto, whose very breath can stir the markets. And now, they exhale… and the price shudders. As the sage CryptoBusy proclaimed from the digital mountain:
Citigroup, JPMorgan, Wells Fargo-names that usually inspire awe or nausea, depending on your tax bracket-tumbled like drunks after last call. Down they went, 1%, 2%, even 3%, as if the very earth beneath Wall Street had turned to quicksand. And Capital One? Poor Capital One.
