If you only know Sonic from the Sega games, I suggest checking out the Archie Comics series. It introduced a lot of fantastic characters who probably won’t appear in the games—maybe just as quick cameos. If you’re still unsure, let me introduce you to some of the best Sonic characters from those comics.
Following a successful launch last year, Embark Studios started 2024 with plans for future updates to ARC Raiders. They’ve scheduled four updates between January and April, and likely have more planned after that. The first, called “Headwinds,” arrived in January, introducing a new 1v3 matchmaking mode, a unique Map Condition for the Buried City, and a new Player Project. In February, they released “Shrouded Sky,” a significant update that added two new enemy types, a new location within Dam Battlegrounds, and another major Map Condition, among other content.

If the reports are accurate, a significant data breach has occurred at Crunchyroll. It appears a Telus employee – a partner company based in India – was responsible. The attacker reportedly gained access to Crunchyroll’s ticketing system using malware, allowing them to steal data directly from Crunchyroll’s database.

One of the most anticipated features of Pokemon Champions is the return of Mega Evolution to official competitive battles. Several strong Pokemon from Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen that could Mega Evolve haven’t been very useful in Pokemon VGC since Generation 7. While it’s hard to predict exactly how the game will play with these new Mega Evolutions, six historically powerful Pokemon are likely to be worth bringing over from FireRed and LeafGreen to Champions.
