TBH: Task Bar Hero might appear like a simple idle-RPG running on your PC in the background, but there’s plenty of micromanagement if you’re interested. Setting up the perfect team is far from a simple task, and doing so has plenty of additional benefits. Having spent over 50 hours with the game, I am here to give you the best team combinations. Table of contents Best team combinations in TBH: Task Bar Hero Best two-hero team Best three-hero team (budget) Best three-hero team (premium) Best team combinations in TBH: Task Bar Hero When you begin playing TBH: Task Bar Hero for the first time, you’ll have only one hero slot, and the Knight unlocked.

The 0.5 patch of Path of Exile 2 has added several Kalguuran Gems, and you can utilize their skills to improve your character build. These gems are obtained as random drops, and they don’t have any attribute requirements, making them immensely flexible. But first, let’s go through all the active Kalguuran skills and how they work.

If you were to tell me I’d be writing about a new The Witcher 3 expansion this time last year, I wouldn’t believe you. It’s so rare to see developers revisit their own games in ways that don’t involve remaking or remastering them or, in extreme cases, restoring cut content. But CDPR is a wildcard of a company and always has been, and it seems it just cannot stop itself from patching or updating something even when it said, “This is it, no more shiny new stuff.” The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past is going to be a big one by all accounts, so here’s everything we know about this new expansion pack. The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past: Setting, release date, and more details We’re going back to Cintra, probably. Image via CDPR The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past is going to be a fully fledged expansion pack to CDPR’s 2015 title, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt . It’ll come 12 years after the original came out, targeting a ...

The Spirit Walker is one of two new Ascendancy classes in Path of Exile 2 , and we can use it to modify your Huntress builds to enjoy the expanded endgame. We can already have a fair idea about the Ascendancy class based on how its active and passive skills will work. Path of Exile 2 Spirit Walker skills explained The core strength of the Spirit Walker lies with the three Wisps: the Bear, the Owl, and the Stag. Each Wisp provides you with unique benefits and bonuses. Skill Bonus How it works Primal Bounty The Mhacha’s Gift Your empowered Projectile Skills will shoot more projectiles at greater speed. Having the Mhacha’s Gift strengthens all the bonuses you get from the Owl Wisp. Wild Stampede The Morrigan’s Guidance You can launch Stag Spirits at enemies that damage them in shockwaves upon impact. You can use the bonus effect to increase the damage of the stags while also improving their effective radius. Wild Protector The Catha’s Balance You can su...

When I first heard of 007 First Light , I didn’t know what to expect. Time went on, and we started seeing clips of Bond bluffing, sneaking, or blowing up his way through levels, with the game promising versatility and limitless, emergent gameplay just waiting for you around every corner. And boy, did all of that come true. The game took me some 15 hours to complete, so much longer than I anticipated. A game like this, prioritizing cinematic movie-like action sequences and flashy scenes, usually doesn’t cross the 10-hour mark for a full playthrough. But James Bond’s latest foray into video games doesn’t leave too soon and invites you to join him on adventures of both professional and personal types. I can’t even begin to explain just how good this game looks and runs. Screenshot by Destructoid There’s everything you expect from James Bond: cars, explosions, fancy gadgets, sexy women in distress, sexier women causing distress to the protago...

Destiny 2 ‘s endgame has long revolved around Champions, each requiring a specific type of counter that largely shifted every season. With Monument of Triumph, however, Bungie finally found a way to solve this problem for posterity: letting everything take on Champions. Every weapon will gain an Anti-Champion capability based on its fire rate and behavior, the studio confirmed in today’s Dev Insights blog post . This also applies to Exotics, which had their effect hand-picked based on what’s closest to its intended effect. More importantly, developers have removed any activation criteria: “No matter which you are using, simply firing the weapon will apply the associated effect immediately assuming you land your shots,” the blog post reads, with a highlight. The change will become particularly palpable for weapons that counter Unstoppable and Overload. The former required you to aim down sights for a short length of time before its effect woul...

After Rockstar fired 31 developers last year, it has been involved in a legal case over alleged union busting, led by the Independent Workers’ Union of Great Britain (IWGB). Now, Rockstar’s developers announced their own union, the Rockstar Games Workers Union (RGWU), which will participate in the lawsuit. That is according to Rockstar Intel, which writes that the union’s formal announcement came today via a video published by IWGB. This new union will be a part of the IWGB and apparently be the one to face Rockstar in court over alleged union-busting in relation to Rockstar’s firing of 31 developers last year. In the video shared by IWGB, it is stated that Rockstar’s move last year was “one of the most blatant and ruthless acts of union busting the games industry has ever seen.” The union started small in Rockstar North but has now expanded across the country, as stated in the video. Developers from multiple “Rockstar sites...

The Witcher 3 is, in my humble opinion, the best game ever made. Sure, some of y’all may find faults in it, such as its jank or simplistic combat, but it is as close to perfection as it can be, with probably the greatest story ever told in the history of the industry (and some of the best side quests ever, too). And now CDPR has updated us with just how many copies the title has sold in its 11-year run: 65 million and counting. It’s a stunning number that’d make your head spin and also one that places The Witcher 3 firmly among the best-selling games of all time. It’s eighth, just behind Terraria, which, according to Wikipedia’s list, sold around 70 million copies to date. I almost cried when I saw this. Image via CD Projekt Red The Witcher 3 launched in 2015, over 11 years ago now, and immediately became a pop culture sensation. It went on to win Game of the Year at The Game Awards (then still in its infancy) and became the most-awarded g...

The King of the Road challenge is now live in Forza Horizon 6 , and we can complete four different tasks to get various rewards. Part of the Autumn playlist, this challenge revolves around the famous Nissan Silvia K’s. You’ll first need to have unlocked the car and then complete various objectives in it. Table of contents Forza Horizon 6 King of the Road challenge guide Earn 3 stars at Drift Zones Win a Road Race Complete two runs in the Festival Kilometer Drag Meet Forza Horizon 6 King of the Road challenge guide The first task of the challenge is to drive anywhere in the 1989 Nissan Silvia K’s.

The Swarm update in No Man’s Sky has added a fair amount of new content to enjoy, and we can now add the Direwasp Disintegrator to your pool of multi-tools.

Price hikes in video game hardware are nothing new—just check out what Sony and Nintendo have been up to—but I’m genuinely surprised by how much Valve increased its Steam Deck prices, and now I think the Steam Machine will never see the light of day. As per CharlieIntel , Steam Decks now cost almost 50 percent more than before. After the LCD edition was discontinued entirely, Valve’s OLED Steam Decks went up from $549 to $789 for the 512GB model and from $649 to $949 for the 1TB one. That’s $240 and $300 more than before for hardware that’s already started showing its age and lack of raw power to support mainstream titles.

007 First Light has 23 different Intels to find, and we can get them from the different chapters. You can find the first one in Chapter four, and most of them are pretty easy to find once you know where to look. While you can complete the game without finding a single one of these collectibles, they add to the lore. This guide will help you collect all of them if you’re looking out for them. How to find all MI6 Intel in 007 First Light The table below has all the key information you’ll need to find every piece of collectible.

Teamfight Manager 2 is now available on PC, and we can fulfil our ambitions of managing our esports team. Despite being in early access, the game already includes plenty of changes and new features compared to the first part. That said, there’s a strange bug that seems to be taking place randomly across saves. When it occurs, the bug prevents you from proceeding forward with your save. It forces you to be stuck in a loop. Thankfully, there’s a workaround you can try to mitigate the problem. How to solve Teamfight Manager 2 stuck in a loop The bug seems to occur once we get into January . At first, I thought I was the only one, and my save might have become corrupted. However, I checked the Steam discussions, and others also appear to be in the same boat. The bug also seems to affect multiplayer sessions, adding to the frustration if you’re trying to enjoy co-op. Image via Samoyed A permanent solution has to appear from the developers. However, you...

Developer CD Projekt Red has announced a new livestream to celebrate the anniversary of the Blood and Wine DLC for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt . This has led some fans to guess that the long-awaited 2026 DLC for the RPG will be revealed. While nothing has been confirmed, multiple high-level sources have stated that some kind of update for The Witcher 3 is happening this year. These sources indicate that the DLC will be to prepare fans for the next installment of The Witcher franchise, likely The Witcher 4 . CD Projekt Red previously announced that the next game in the franchise wouldn’t be arriving in 2026, though, leading more credence to a possible Witcher 3 DLC this year. Many fans in the community and on social media believe the upcoming Witcher 3 livestream , set for May 28 at 5 PM CEST, will finally unveil this new content in the decade-old game.
