A new update arrived to both Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone on January 23. The update makes changes to aftermarket parts, gives players a new way to purchase bundles, and adjusts the limited-time Supe'd Up multiplayer mode. Here's everything you need to know.

For multiplayer, Season 1 Reloaded's new Supe'd Up LTM has a major change that allows players to now earn Temp V abilities more than once per life. The update also adjusts the columns displayed on the in-match scoreboard. It will now show: Kills, Confirms, Denies.

Some of Modern Warfare 3's new aftermarket parts received balancing. The developer explains this update was made because part of the goal for aftermarket parts is to have conversion kits that offer players "fun and unexpected experiences" with familiar weapons.

For the launch of Modern Warfare III, Activision released a new anti-toxicity voice moderation program that could automatically detect toxic speech and take action. Activision now says this program has been very successful so far, leading to more than 2 million accounts having action taken against them for "disruptive" voice chat.

The program rolled out originally in North America in English only, but it has since expanded everywhere in the world (except Asia) and has added support for Spanish and Portuguese moderation. This voice moderation is also up and running for Modern Warfare II and Warzone.

Activision also shared some findings from the voice moderation program so far. The company said only one in five users reported toxic speech when its own systems detected it, which Activision said was "unfortunate." Activision can take action without players reporting bad speech, but direct player reporting remains "critical" to the system working as best it can, the company said.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 is in full swing, but ever since it began back in December, there's one skin we haven't been able to try out yet: Solid Snake, the hero of Metal Gear Solid, was shown in the debut trailer and has teased us on the landing page ever since. Today, Fortnite finally gets a taste of tactical espionage action, but as it turns out, Snake isn't coming alone. Not only is a friend from MGS joining the fun, but two other collaborations are about to get major expansions.

First, Snake's partner-in-stealth--Metal Gear Solid 2's Raiden--will be hitting the Item Shop soon, after he was featured in a teaser video for Snake's arrival. According to prominent Fortnite leaker iFireMonkey, the Raiden skin will come with an alternate masked style, a katana pickaxe with sheath back bling, and a weapon wrap.

Two other Fortnite-focused dataminers have found some other interesting tidbits hiding under the radar as well. First, HypeX has discovered evidence of more Family Guy skins coming to the game, which will serve as a companion to Peter Griffin, who appears in the battle pass.

In the latest Fortnite update, battle pass owners can unlock Metal Gear Solid's hero, Solid Snake, as well as a host of other items tied to the series and its main character. But one of them, to hide in a cardboard box for 10 seconds, requires you find the new Mythic-tier cardboard box item--a nod to the stealth-action series from Konami, of course. Here's where to find a coardboad box in Fortnite.

Fortnite cardboard box location

The most unlikely of all Mythic items in Fortnite, the simple-looking cardboard box, can be found randomly in any given round via chests all across the island. But if you're like me, you'll want something more reliable to get your challenge completed quickly.

Visit Solid Snake at the location marked in the image, then buy a cardboard box from him to beat the loot RNG.

For that, there's one place to go: Visit the Solid Snake NPC on the island and buy the box from him. He can be found on the small island north of Lavish Lair on the main island.

If you never played it on PlayStation or PC, Death Stranding is a strangely meditative game set in a world where humanity is on the verge of being wiped out. A mysterious extinction event almost destroyed humanity, and as Sam Porter, it's up to you to travel the land and form new connections while avoiding the bad weather. Trust us, you really don't want to be caught in Death Stranding's rain.

The game also has plenty of action, so when you're not avoiding strange phantasms around you, you'll be duking it out with bandits and sinister organizations. As a Hideo Kojima-directed game, Death Stranding also has a lot of story to tell through conversations and cutscenes.

Half Mermaid, the developer behind 2022's Immortality, is teasing two upcoming projects on the Steam store. Project D seems to be a survival-horror game set in 1983, while Project C is set to be a cinematic experience. Neither project has a release window as of the time of publication.

The descriptions of both games are heavily redacted. Project D, which might stand for Doors as per Steam's database registry, is "a survival-horror" with the keywords 1983, nurse, be careful, and nightmare. There's also mention of "something bad," "some doors," and "home?" elsewhere on the page. Imagery involves eyes, a red backdrop with the word "America" in it, and of course, doors.

Project C is even more ominous. The first description says "gifted with the," "kaleidoscopic," and "future" amidst dozens of blank characters. There's also a text extract that reads: "For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known."

If you watched only one run from 2024's Awesome Games Done Quick event, it was almost certainly Peanut Butter the dog playing Gyromite--putting ROB to shame with his flawless navigation in the pursuit of victory and cheese. Training a dog to do anything isn't easy, and training a Shiba Inu to do anything is even more of a challenge, but streamer and longtime speedrunner JSR_ knew that his furry friend was up to the challenge. He was so sure of it, in fact, that the two spent nine months training in preparation for the challenge, and JSR_ sat down with GameSpot at AGDQ in Pittsburgh to talk about the experience.

JSR_ recognized Peanut Butter's intelligence and aptitude for training right away, using positivity (pawsitivity?) training to teach him typical dog tricks early on. He wanted to get him involved in other challenges, but rather than enroll him in agility competitions, JSR_ opted to combine Peanut Butter's love of training with his own project: a quest to complete speedruns of every game featured on the Angry Video Game Nerd show. At that point, it had taken five years and well over 2,000 hours. Most games the Nerd played for his show would frustrate the average human, let alone a dog, but there was an exception.

"[There were] 200 speedruns I had to learn, and one of them was the ROB the Robot episode where I played Gyromite," JSR_ explained. "And as I was playing it, it struck me that ROB is simple enough that if I trained Peanut Butter to press the buttons instead, I could play Gyromite with my dog."

In Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth, your social stats can be pretty important. One of the best ways to increase your stats is the Ounabara Vocational School. At the Ounabara Vocational School you can take quizzes, which will improve your social stats if you pass. The topics range widely, from sports to nature and history. The school is located in the southwestern part of Honolulu, right off of Harbor St.

Each quiz has a pool of 10 questions, five of which will be randomly given to you for the exam. You have 30 seconds to answer the question, although pulling up your console's dashboard will pause the timer, at least on Xbox. The order of the answers is not consistent from quiz to quiz. For answers that are pictures, the correct image has been described, and in some cases, is shown in the image for that quiz. To pass a quiz, you need to get three out of five questions correct, with the exception of the final quiz, which requires a perfect score. For quizzes that have multiple tiers, you must complete the lower tier first, moving from Tier 2 to Tier 1.

Despite the title, in the early chapters of Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth Ichiban Kasuga and his crew will be strapped for cash. While there are plenty of options for making money early on, the majority of these don't pay out a ton, but there are a few efficient ways to grind for cash and a few ways to save yourself some money. Here are the best ways to make money in Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth.

Collect everything

There are items to be collected everywhere in Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth. While some of the items you find, like plates, are worth a decent amount of money at the local pawn shop, the biggest boon here is collecting crafting resources, health items, and even weapons. Collecting these items in the open world, especially health items and weapons, means you don't need to spend money on buying these things. Items can be found in shiny spots and metal cases on the ground, in dumpsters, underneath cars, and even in the ocean. Keep your eyes peeled as you explore the open world.

Fight, fight, fight

You can't completely avoid random battles in Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth, and beating down enemies can be lucrative. The enemies just wandering the streets don't give the largest amount of money, but there are a few ways to boost this. First, head to the Shrine located in the northwestern part of the map. You will be introduced to this early in the game, where you collect fortunes around Hawaii and exchange them for prizes. One of the earliest prizes is the Lucky Money Charm, which boosts money won from fights by 0.1%. It's not the biggest boost, but over time it makes a difference.

Netflix has released a new trailer for its live-action series adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender, based on the 2005 animated series. The project received a straight-to-series order from Netflix in 2018, with the premiere of the initial eight-episode season scheduled for February 22.

The series tracks Aang, the young Avatar, on his journey to master the four elements and bring balance to a world endangered by the Fire Nation. An official show synopsis further sets the stage: "Water. Earth. Fire. Air. The four nations once lived in harmony, with the Avatar, master of all four elements, keeping peace between them. But everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked and wiped out the Air Nomads..." In the trailer, Gordon Cormier, portraying Aang, declares, "I'm the Avatar, and I'm going to save the world--with my friends." Check it out below.

The cast includes Daniel Dae Kim as Fire Lord Ozai, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee as General Iroh, Ken Leung as Commander Zhao, Elizabeth Yu as Princess Azula, Dallas Liu as Prince Zuko, Kiawentiio as Katara, and Ian Ousley as Sokka.

The PlayStation Network was busy last year, as 2023 saw dozens of high-profile releases on that platform. But which games were the most-downloaded on PS5 and PS4? Sony has revealed the top PlayStation Store downloads across all of 2023, and while the number one game on that list won't be too surprising, there are some unexpected entries on the list.

In the US and Canada, Hogwarts Legacy was the most-downloaded game of the year on PS5, and came in second place on PS4 to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III. The impact of the Harry Potter game was massive, as thanks to the strength of the brand and it having a long headstart with its February 2023 release, it broke a longstanding record of the No. 1 best-selling title of the year in the US being either a Call of Duty game or or the newest release from Rockstar Games .

In Europe, the continent's love of soccer propelled EA Sports FC 24 to the top of the PS5 and PS4 charts on that side of the globe. For more predictable entries, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Marvel's Spider-Man 2, NBA 2K24, and Madden NFL 24 can all be found in the list, while other big releases like Resident Evil 4, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, and Final Fantasy 16 battled each other to remain in the top 20.

Palworld launched on January 19 in early access, and the developer's CEO estimates the game is about 60% feature-complete. Pocketpair CEO Takuro Mizobe told Automaton that "all the basic functions" are in place for Palworld. Looking ahead, Pocketpair will look to further refine the game and introduce new functionality, including potentially PvP.

"PvP is really difficult. First of all, we need to think about why we are introducing PvP to Palworld. To begin with, there are many other games that offer a fun PvP experience, so we need to make sure that there is a reason for Palworld players to play PvP," Mizobe said. "Of course, using Pals you caught in battle is one unique point, but only games that give players a good reason to play can survive in the long term. In this sense, I think it's a very harsh territory."

Mizobe said Pocketpair is "not very optimistic" about adding PvP to Palworld, adding that the chance of success in making a successful PvP mode would be below 10%.

Neo Geo Pocket Color Selection Vol. 2 Steelbook Bundle

$60

Preorder at Amazon

The Neo Geo Pocket Color may have been overshadowed by Game Boy Color when it launched in the late '90s, but that doesn't diminish the fact that it was home to some awesome games. Now, fans who missed out on Limited Run Games' initial release of Neo Geo Pocket Color Selection Vol. 2 can preorder an Amazon-exclusive steelbook bundle while supplies last. The compilation releases on March 19, though we'd expect this to sell out prior to release.

If you mess around, you're gonna find out when it comes to modding Nintendo characters into popular games--especially one in Palworld, which already has heavy Pokemon inspirations. YouTuber ToastedShoes apparently found this out on X (formerly known as Twitter).

Spotted by IGN, ToastedShoes posted on the social media site that "Nintendo has come for me" while screenshotting that his Pokemon mod teaser video--in which Misty has a gun--for Palworld was taken down by a copyright owner. It's unclear whether it was Nintendo or The Pokemon Company that actually filed the claim. However, the Australian has decided to still release a YouTube video today (seen below) showcasing his Pokemon mod for the survival game.

ToastedShoes says the Pokemon mod won't be available publicly for the time being. "We want to release it for free to everyone, however due to Nintendo sending a DMCA over the last tweet, we want to tread lightly for the time being," ToastedShoes posted on X.

The Cyberpunk 2077 sequel could include a multiplayer element. CD Projekt joint CEO Adam Badowski told Reuters that the Polish studio is considering putting multiplayer elements in the sequel, though nothing has been decided yet and the game remains in the conceptual phase.

It's natural and expected that, at this early stages of development, a developer would be exploring possibilities before production begins in earnest.

Badowski did not share any further information about possibilities for multiplayer in the Cyberpunk sequel. It's possible it could be in the form of co-op, PvP, or some other form of multiplayer.

Nintendo released a new trailer for Princess Peach: Showtime, giving fans a closer look at all the roles they'll be playing on stage, including Ninja Peach, Cowgirl Peach, and Swordfighter Peach. Along with the trailer, Nintendo announced that a set of new pastel pink Jon-Con controllers are launching with the game on March 22. This is the third pastel Jon-Con release--and they're bound to be popular when they arrive later this winter.

Pastel Pink Jon-Con $80

The pastel pink Joy-Con are not yet available for preorder, though Nintendo says they'll be listed at select retailers as well as the My Nintendo Store. Unlike some Joy-Con, which feature different colors for the left and right controllers, these are pastel pink throughout the entire design. As usual, they support motion controls, HD rumble, and come with two black Joy-Con straps.

See more details at Twitter

Nintendo didn't say which "select retailers" will be carrying the controllers, though we'd expect to see them go live at Best Buy, Amazon, and GameStop. The Joy-Con will only be sold for a limited time, so be sure to move fast once preorders officially open.

If you don't want to wait until March to get your hands on some flashy Joy-Con, another set of pastel pink and pastel yellow Joy-Con are available right now for $80. The same goes for the pastel purple and pastel yellow Joy-Con, also listed for $80.

We might already know the official title for Hideo Kojima's upcoming game, Death Stranding 2. Additionally, it could be revealed in the upcoming weeks.

The website Dealabs claimed that the official title for the game is Death Stranding 2: On The Beach. This indicates that the game may take place mostly at sea as opposed to the land-trekking affair of the first. When Death Stranding 2 was first revealed, the trailer showed main characters Sam Porter Bridges and Fragile in a giant ship at sea.

Dealabs also reported that another announcement about the game is coming soon. While the site wasn't able to lock down exactly when it'll happen, it claimed that it will occur within the next 15 days. GiantBomb's Jeff Grubb recently claimed that Sony will hold another State of Play presentation soon, but Dealabs isn't certain whether Death Stranding 2 will make an appearance there.
