Arc Raiders Lost In Transmission Quest Guide

Fri, 01/09/2026 - 02:21

Arc Raiders occasionally sends you on quests that require you to enter areas that require a key. One of these quests, Lost in Transmission, asks you to head up into Spaceport's Control Tower A6, where you'll need to establish a connection from a terminal there. We're here to guide you through each step of this short but potentially dangerous quest.

There are two important things to note about this quest:

  • You must bring the Spaceport Control Tower Key into the raid. You will be granted this key upon accepting the quest, and you will not be able to open the necessary door and reach the terminal without it. Place the key in a safe pocket to ensure it's not lost during any potential firefights you encounter. If you didn't bring it or have already lost it, there's a chance someone else will have opened the door, but otherwise you'll need to acquire a new key, which can be found randomly as loot on any map.
  • Speaking of firefights, the locked room of Control Tower A6 tends to contain really good loot, so other raiders will often contest this location. If you're lucky, your visit to Control Tower A6 may end up quiet. But there's always a chance that you'll need to take someone out, so come prepared.

When you're ready to tackle Lost in Transmission, follow the steps below.

GameStop CEO Could Ring In Big Payday But With An Even Bigger Caveat

Fri, 01/09/2026 - 02:20

GameStop announced this week that a proposed pay package worth approximately $35 billion for its CEO, Ryan Cohen, was in the works. The compensation is tied entirely to the company's performance and depends on a major turnaround. To earn it, Cohen must increase GameStop's market value by more than 10 times and significantly raise profits.

Meeting these goals would require a big change for GameStop, which has struggled in recent years. Its stock price is also severely down from the record highs reached in 2021, when GameStop gained popularity among retail investors during the meme-stock surge.

Even at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020, GameStop was already planning on matching the number of store closures from the previous year.

Arc Raiders A Balanced Harvest Quest Guide

Fri, 01/09/2026 - 02:17

Arc Raiders quests love sending players to the Research & Administration building on Dam Battlegrounds. One such quest, A Balanced Harvest, tasks you with visiting this hectic location and finding some files on a research project. Getting in and out can be tricky, so we've prepared a guide on how to finish your objectives as quickly as possible.

You can feel free to bring a free kit into Dam Battlegrounds for this quest, as you won't be required to extract. If you die in the very busy Research & Administration building--which you'll have to visit to complete your objectives--you certainly don't want to lose any good gear. That being said, if you're prone to enjoying PvP, you can always come more prepared for this PvP-centric POI. It's entirely your call, of course.

When you're ready to wrap up the A Balanced Harvest quest, read on for how to complete each step.

Baby Waluigi Cries Waaaah In Mario Tennis Fever

Fri, 01/09/2026 - 01:29

Nintendo has released a new overview trailer for Mario Tennis Fever, the upcoming sports game for Switch 2. While the video goes over various modes and special rackets, the most important revelation is Baby Waluigi. He's a real playable character, and he's spectacular.

Baby Waluigi, who we caught a brief glimpse of during the announcement trailer last year, isn't the only newcomer to Mario Tennis Fever, though. The game will feature Goomba, Nabbit, Piranha Plant, and Baby Wario for the first time as part of the playable cast, consisting of 38 characters overall. The sports title will also serve up 30 Fever Rackets. Nintendo showcased some of the special abilities tied to these frames, such as the Pokey Racket and Golden Dash Racket. The former spawns enemies on your opponent's court, while the latter can make your character super agile.

Nintendo also detailed how to counter Fever shots. If players can volley the ball back--meaning not allowing it to bounce off the court--the special effect can be sent back. For instance, the Ice Racket creates a frozen surface on the court. Instead of this slippery area appearing on your side, you can volley the Fever shot back to your opponent.
