If you want a fused version of Kyurem, you’ll need to nab Volt Fusion Energy and Blaze Fusion Energy in Pokémon Go. You can mainly grab this from doing raids against Black and White Kyurem, but Niantic has a few codes to net you free fusion energy to give you a bit of a boost...

Keepie uppies. With Switch entering its ninth year on 3rd March 2025, and with over 150 million units sold and more million-selling games than we've had hot dinners, it's hard to remember a time when Nintendo pooling its portable and home console software teams behind a single system felt like a risky move. As Wii U foundered, it was the slow-starting 3DS that kept Nintendo fans' candles burning during The Lean Wii U Years™, so putting all its eggs in one basket felt like a gamble. It wasn't rea...

This is an unusual one: a survival game set in a flooded world that's maybe Earth, where you're a robot known as a Caretaker whose purpose is to grow humans in pods, imbibe them with memories and launch them into space (where they will presumably live). But there's an air of mystery over the whole thing. You appear to be, as the game's title tells us, the last Caretaker, and you've been reactivated at a point in time where you're not sure what, if anything, still exists. The sea-based facility y...

While all you Subnautica fans have an exciting sequel on the way, here’s a freshly revealed survival game that ticks a lot of the same boxes while adding its own spin on things. While you won’t be diving down to depths quite as extreme as Subnautica, the absolutely stunning The Last Caretaker will take you on an open-world, ocean-bound adventure that involves plenty of environmental puzzles, a home base on a boat, flashy FPS combat, strange enemy creatures, and a rather unusual end goal - growin...

This post isn’t for you! It’s for me, because I’d love to add to my collection of official Zelda lore literature. The Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia is currently on sale for $20, which is half off its regular price, and it’d look so good next to my Hyrule Historia. It’s simply a must-have book for...

Chinese smartphone maker Oppo recently came out with the Find N5, which is a super thin and lightweight foldable smartphone. It's thinner and lighter than Samsung's foldable devices, and Apple's non-foldable ones. Subscribe to the MacRumors YouTube channel for more videos. The Find N5 has a 6.62-inch display when closed, and an 8.12-inch display when open, so when unfolded, it's just a bit smaller than the iPad mini. It's 8.93mm thick when closed, and just 4.21mm when open. The thinnest device A...

Researchers just discovered evidence to suggest that Mars was once home to oceans and sandy beaches on the red planet, according to data published by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. This is a far cry from the arid, freezing and radiation-filled conditions of modern Mars. Scientists discovered evidence of buried beaches after they analyzed below-ground imaging data from China’s Zhurong rover. This data from the northern lowlands of Mars is extremely similar to what researcher...

Undermine. Home to Azeroth's Goblin population, the underground metropolis has existed on the fringes of World of Warcraft for over a decade - just out of reach, yet within touching distance. With WoW patch 11.1, Undermine(d), we'll finally be able to explore this chaotic metropolitan world that, in many ways, feels like a real-life city. In an exclusive interview with various members of the Blizzard team, I asked about the pressures of designing a zone that players have such high hopes for, as ...

Gnarly! Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 has been teased for a good number of months on the trot now, but it finally seems like the skating sequels will be dropping in on Switch soon enough after the as-yet-unannounced title received a rating in Singapore (thanks, VGC). It's exciting news, no doubt, made all the more appealing by the inclusion of Switch in the rating board's console lineup (alongside PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S). And if that wasn't enough for you, the classification c...

World of Warcraft, Elder Scrolls Online, and Final Fantasy 14 are the biggest hitters nowadays, but don’t forget about Tibia. Originally created all the way back in 1997, it’s often regarded as the first true MMORPG, and even now nearly thirty years later, it’s still running, and still getting updates. But developer CipSoft has its sights on something fresh. While Dying Light, State of Decay 2, and DayZ have the online zombie survival experience more or less sewn up, Persist, CipSoft’s new game,...

Microsoft is delaying one of the major first-party games it had lined up for 2025. The company said during its big annual Xbox showcase last June that its Fable reboot would arrive this year. But that’s no longer the case as Xbox has pushed back the fantasy RPG to 2026. "We previously announced the date for Fable as 2025. We are actually going to give Fable more time and it's going to ship in 2026 now," Craig Duncan, the new head of Xbox Game Studios, said on the latest edition of the Official X...

Tony Hawk himself said a few years ago that a 3+4 remake was canned, but all signs now point to the game coming back.

It’s taken a few years, but Samsung has finally signed up to the PCIe 5.0 SSD club, announcing a brand new line of super-fast drives. The company says the new Samsung 9100 Pro is up to 99% quicker than its predecessor, the already-fast 990 Pro, and that it’s even faster than the mighty Crucial T705 and MSI Spatium M580 Frozr. Samsung also turned up late to the PCIe 4.0 party, but it absolutely ruled the roost in terms of sequential read and write performance, as we found in our Samsung 990 Pro r...

Now, we should preface this by clarifying that we still don't officially know how capable the Switch 2 will be, but judging from the bevy of leaks and subsequent analyses on the tech specs, we're likely looking at a c...
