Bygone Dreams is a high fantasy action adventure with RPG elements set in a surreal dream world. The dream land of Lume, under the protection of its matron deity, is being threatened by a terrible Nightmare. Embodying the spirit known as Wa, you are the world's last hope for survival. To aid you in your quest, you must seek out the world's Guardians - powerful creatures worshiped and revered in times long before the corruption seeped in. However, the task ahead is anything but easy, as the Guardians themselves succumbed to the Nightmare.

BitCraft is a sandbox MMORPG which encourages many different play styles ranging from farming, hunting, and crafting to city-building and social strategy, rather than emphasizing combat alone. The game incorporates elements of sub-genres such as survival games, sandbox games, role-playing games, city builders, and strategy games. The game takes place in a single, massive, editable sandbox world for all players to interact with and to permanently change. Players awaken as a mystical being in the middle of the wilderness and will need to build shelter to survive. BitCraft has a skill system which lets players master their skills as they practice them. All characters begin as a blank slate and players build up experience in the aspects of the game they like to spend time with.

In 2020, Ryan Reynolds was cast in Dragon's Lair, a live-action movie set up at Netflix based on the 1983 animated arcade game. That project hasn't had a lot of momentum in the last five years, but now Dragon's Lair is circling a director and it may finally be moving forward.

As reported by The InSneider and confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter, James Bobin is currently in talks to helm Dragon's Lair, but his deal hasn't been closed yet. Bobin has previously directed Disney's acclaimed reboot of The Muppets in 2011, as well as its sequel, Muppets Most Wanted. His other credits include Dora and the Lost City of Gold, as well as episodes of Flight of the Conchords, The Mysterious Benedict Society, and Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

Animation legend Don Bluth co-created Dragon's Lair with Gary Goldman, Jon Pomeroy, and Rick Dyer in 1983, and the game was revolutionary for its time. Players assumed control of Dirk the Daring, a largely silent knight who broke into a deadly castle to save Princess Daphne from a dragon named Singe. Each room in the castle was filled with traps or enemies, and Dirk died horrible deaths if players made the wrong move.

Blizzard recently blew the lid off World of Warcraft's upcoming 11.2 update, Ghosts of K'aresh, and players are now convinced a new specialization for Demon Hunters could be in the cards.

In the official Ghosts of K'aresh preview video, a moment around the two minutes and 38 second mark with three Demon Hunters sticks out. The Demon Hunter on the left looks to be Havoc (DPS) spec, while the one on the right, wearing bulkier armor, certainly looks like a stand-in for a Vengeance (tank) Demon Hunter. The third Demon Hunter, placed prominently in the middle of the screen, is decked out in Void-themed armor and wielding warglaives of distinct purple Void energy.

The inclusion of a Void-powered Demon Hunter is certainly raising eyebrows, especially when combined with a datamined ability (via Icy Veins) from the upcoming 11.2 patch client literally labeled as "Demon Hunter Metamorphosis Void." That has led players to believe Blizzard is teasing a third Void-focused spec that could be coming soon.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is proving to be a worthy successor to the original Switch, offering more processing power, a better display, and plenty of new functionality. Online multiplayer is also better on Switch 2 thanks to new features like Game Chat, Game Sharing, and faster download speeds. With all that new online functionality, you might be wondering if you should use a VPN with your Switch 2 when jumping online. Unlike Xbox Series X or PlayStation 5, which aren’t portable and typically connect to the same router every day, you can travel the world with your Switch 2, connecting to public Wi-Fi. As such, it might seem worthwhile to use a VPN with your Switch 2, though there are reasons to remain skeptical about their performance.

Using a VPN on Switch 2

First things first--yes, you can use a VPN on Switch 2. However, it’s not as straightforward as using a VPN on your PC. There’s no built-in VPN app for Switch 2, meaning you’ll need to either create a hotspot from another supported device or set up a VPN on your router. The latter can be tricky for beginners, and the process varies slightly depending on your specific VPN service.

If you’re thinking of setting up a VPN on your router, consider using ExpressVPN. The company offers its own line of Aircove routers that come preconfigured to route all traffic on your network through an ExpressVPN server. There are two models available: the $190 Aircove and the $170 Aircove Go. Both feature WiFi 6 support and come bundled with a 30-day ExpressVPN free trial. Any device with WiFi or Ethernet connectivity can connect to the Aircoves, including the Switch 2, your PCs, other gaming consoles, smartphones, and more.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, until now, held the highest-rated score on review aggregate site Metacritic. It's been dethroned by the Switch 2 upgrades for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, which were released in conjunction with the new console's launch.

As spotted by GamesRadar, Tears of the Kingdom holds the top spot now, with a score of 95, while Breath of the Wild matches Expedition 33's aggregate score of 93. It's important to note that Expedition 33 has in excess of 80 critics' reviews contributing to its impressive score though, while Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom have eleven and nine, respectfully.

The Zelda upgrade packs added higher resolution, improved frame rate, and HDR support alongside the Zelda Notes feature which includes item sharing and Korok Seeds and Shrine location tracking.
