I would die for Deadlock’s new hero Rem, who also has one of the best easter eggs I’ve seen in a competitive PvP game

The gaming community is voting on which of Valve's six new heroes will debut in Deadlock, with players favoring Rem, a charming nap enthusiast. Rem has unique abilities: Pillow Toss, which damages and knocks back enemies while reducing his cooldowns; Tag Along, allowing him to leap to an ally and heal; a third ability that introduces a smaller companion for assistance; and his ultimate ability, Naptime, which slows and immobilizes opponents, causing them to fall asleep and take damage upon waking. Rem is the first of six new heroes set for release, with the next character to be unveiled on January 29. Additionally, there is a Rem-themed easter egg in the game featuring a secret bedroom with details like plush pillows and 'vote for me' posters, along with tiny companions and surprises.

There’s a Bloodlines story you haven’t played, and it’s one of my favorite VTM games ever made

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, released by Troika in 2004, is a significant title in the RPG genre. Santa Monica By Night is a flash game developed during the 'Vampire Jam' by Martyna 'Outstar' Zych and 'Memoriesin8bit' in just seven days. It features a pixelated reimagining of Los Angeles where players assume the role of a Thinblood searching for Vincent Lenz. The game includes branching narratives, multiple endings, and easter eggs, designed as a fan fiction project inspired by Bloodlines. Outstar aimed to create a narrative that connects newcomers with the setting while highlighting differences for returning fans. The game captures familiar locations and mechanics from Bloodlines, and players can experience various endings that reflect themes of hopelessness and loss. A secret ending was added post-jam, providing closure to the game's love story.

Hytale will feature a “meaningful tribute” to Minecraft legend Technoblade: “He was a big part of our journey”

Hytale, a sandbox RPG inspired by Minecraft, will include a tribute to Technoblade, a prominent figure in the gaming community who passed away in 2022.

Technoblade, whose real name was Alexander, had aspirations to join the marketing team at Hypixel in 2015 but was too young at the time. Community responses have been positive, with ideas such as a Technoblade constellation and a unique sword. Additionally, Hytale's developers are setting the game's price at an "aggressively low" level, citing a commitment to quality.

How to complete the Black Ops 7 Ashes of the Damned Easter Egg

The Zombies map "Ashes of the Damned" features the largest round-based map in Call of Duty history, with a main questline and numerous easter eggs. Players use a truck named Ol' Tessie for transport, which carries the Pack-a-Punch machine. To unlock Pack-a-Punch, players must retrieve T.E.D.D.'s Head from the Server Room at Janus Towers Plaza and install it on Ol' Tessie. Players can drive to Blackwater Lake to restore power by shooting orange pods off a Power Pump, then proceed to Ashwood for further objectives. Players can upgrade Ol' Tessie with the Abomination Beam after defeating zombies and collecting items. The unique Wonder Weapon, the Necrofluid Gauntlet, is obtained by defeating a miniboss named Uber Klaus and completing various tasks. Players gather six ingredients for a serum, which involves specific actions at different locations. They must find three keys to unlock a box in Ashwood, which rewards the DG-2 Turret Barrel upgrade for Ol' Tessie.

Windows turns 40 as the most influential software product in history

Microsoft Windows celebrated its 40th anniversary on November 20, 2025. The journey began with the launch of Windows 1.0 in 1985, designed as a graphical layer atop MS-DOS, requiring a graphics card and 256KB of RAM. Subsequent releases included Windows 2.0 in 1987, Windows 3.0 and 3.1 in 1990 and 1992, respectively, which introduced significant features like a 3D-styled interface and popular games. Windows 95, launched in the mid-1990s, introduced the Start menu and taskbar, selling over seven million copies shortly after its release. The late 1990s and early 2000s saw the introduction of Windows 98, Windows 2000, and Windows XP in 2001, which was noted for its stability. Windows Vista was released in 2007, followed by Windows 7 in 2009, and Windows 8, which faced user backlash. Windows 10 was launched in 2015, adopting a Windows-as-a-Service model, and Windows 11 continues to evolve with new design and hardware requirements.

After just a week, Black Ops 7 has given up campaign-gating its new extraction mode Endgame

Treyarch has introduced Black Ops 7 as the most expansive installment in the Call of Duty franchise, featuring a new PvE extraction mode called Endgame, which is linked to the co-op campaign. Initially designed to encourage narrative engagement, Endgame will be made accessible to all players just a week after launch, indicating that player engagement with the campaign may not have met expectations. The campaign has received mixed reactions, and Treyarch has implemented incentives like XP rewards and four-player co-op gameplay to attract players. Starting November 21, players can access Endgame without completing all campaign missions, although initial gameplay reveals a repetitive start. Players who unlock Endgame before its wider release will receive additional rewards, including double XP tokens and GobbleGums for Zombies. The decision to make Endgame available to all suggests a shift in Treyarch's expectations regarding player engagement.
