Even though its development wasn’t without challenges, Crimson Desert has been a commercial success, surpassing several sales goals. It’s already sold over 5 million copies in under a month and is poised to become one of 2026’s best-selling games. While critics had mixed reactions, players are enjoying the game, and Pearl Abyss is actively improving it with regular updates. The story, however, remains a common complaint among fans, as it’s considered one of the game’s weaker aspects.

It’s not the specifics of what was removed, who asked for it, or even which platforms complied that bothers me. What’s really striking is how quickly it all happened. A single request, a short period of pressure, and a large part of the creative world was changed. No laws were broken, and yet it still occurred.

It’s been a decade since the last Uncharted game came out, but there’s growing buzz about the future of the series. Naughty Dog is currently developing Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, and reports suggest they’re also working on a new Uncharted project. This could be a remake of the original game, a fifth installment, or even both. While these reports haven’t been officially confirmed, interest in the Uncharted series is definitely increasing, and we’re learning more about the existing games.

You can craft a Simple Fishing Rod using a Workbench. To unlock the ability to make one, you first need to improve your Workbench in Windrose. Do this by building either a Sawhorse or a Toolbox near your Bonfire. Each of these constructions raises the level of all Workbenches in your base by one, and you’ll need at least a level 2 Workbench to create a Simple Fishing Rod.

I was pretty happy with the game back in September, after trying an early demo, and honestly, not much has changed. The developers listened to feedback and fixed the main issues I had, like tiny text and unclear explanations for certain abilities. They also cleaned up a lot of the temporary, unfinished text that was visible.

I recently came across something really interesting – an old movie pamphlet from the Japanese release of Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection F. Apparently, it answers a question fans have had for years! The director, Tadayoshi Yamamuro, actually explained how Frieza’s body works with his armor way back then. A fan on Twitter, @Com_battler_KK, just shared a passage from it and asked everyone to help get the information out to international fans, and it’s fascinating to finally have this explanation.

Players might want to grab this free game if the PS Plus Extra or Premium selections don’t appeal to them, or if they simply enjoy the original game. It’s a nice bonus for subscribers, but they should download it quickly, as it won’t be available forever. There are many good reasons to check it out!

Troy Baker started his acting career in the mid-2000s by dubbing anime, including the character Gin in Case Closed. He also began working in video games around this time, with his first credited roles appearing in BloodRayne 2 (2004). Over the past two decades, Baker has become a highly respected actor in the gaming world, starring in popular titles like Batman: Arkham Origins, Resident Evil 6, Infamous Second Son, and The Last of Us. Recently, he received praise for playing the lead role in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.

Currently, Naruto Uzumaki is trapped in a special dimension called Daikokuten. This happened at the end of the Boruto: Naruto Next Generations manga when Kawaki sealed him away, believing it was the best course of action. Kawaki wanted to get rid of both the Otsutsuki clan and Boruto, and he thought sealing Naruto and Hinata was the only way. Importantly, time doesn’t pass inside Daikokuten, so Naruto hasn’t aged and remains as powerful as ever.

Riven Tides is the last planned major update for ARC Raiders in 2026, but Embark intends to support the game for ten years, so more updates are likely. While Embark hasn’t revealed all its plans for the year, the game’s roadmap gives players a good idea of what’s coming. We’ve already seen the Headwinds update in January, which introduced a new, somewhat debated, 1v3 matchmaking mode, along with minor map changes. February brought Shrouded Sky, and March saw the release of Flashpoint. Now, with April nearly over, players are getting ready to dive into the Riven Tides update.
