From Software has rolled out a new Elden Ring Nightreign update, which aims to address a number of bugs.

Version 1.01.4 is now available across all platforms and is, once again, a fairly small patch that primarily focuses on resolving a series of bugs that have been disrupting online sessions, instead of balance adjustments, unlike in the previous patch. There's also no word on the promised two-player co-op, which From Software admitted was overlooked in development, but there is a way to enable that with Elden Ring Nightreign mods.

The patch notes confirm that the issue where matchmaking would continuously fail after two players joined and left a team simultaneously has been fixed, meaning no more party resets. The weapon type should also now be displayed in each Armament Information menu, and background music should now play the Recluse Remembrance.

It's 2025, the climate crisis is in full swing, global conflict is escalating rapidly, and polarizing political decisions are being made worldwide. Fear not though: All is not lost as developer Cygames Inc has released a magical girl racing game for Steam and mobile, and I can't stop playing it.

Umamusume: Pretty Derby features horse girls--that is girls with actual horse ears, not girls fond of equines--that you'll need to befriend, train, and race against one another. It's an absurd concept, but it just works.

Umamusume are horse girls that compete in races against each other.

There's something inherently satisfying about choosing your favorite Umamusume character, working alongside her to bring out her true racing potential, and then watching on in anticipation as she sprints around the race track to bring home the title.

The tough times at Xbox are continuing, as Microsoft is cutting more Xbox staff and reportedly cancelling games. This comes at a time when Microsoft's stock price is soaring and profits are up.

Variety confirmed that Microsoft is cutting less than 4% of its global workforce in this latest move, including staff at Xbox. Microsoft had around 228,000 people by the latest count, so the cuts would be around 9,000 people. "We continue to implement organizational and workforce changes that are necessary to position the company and teams for success in a dynamic marketplace," a Microsoft spokesperson said.

According to Bloomberg, Microsoft's Barcelona-based mobile game developer King is cutting 10% of its staff, which works out to around 200 people at the Candy Crush studio. Cuts at ZeniMax's European offices are coming, too.

The Witcher 4 is still a long way from players getting their hands on it, but CD Projekt Red's team still wants fans to know that the lessons learned in the previous games will be reflected in the sequel. Narrative director Philipp Weber--who was previously the quest director for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt--recently said that The Witcher 4's quests will embrace the example set by its predecessor. Among other things, that means Ciri won't have to worry about meaningless fetch quests.

"We don't do fetch quests," Webber told GamesRadar, before expanding upon the reasons for that decision.

"A quest has to be something interesting," said Weber. "I have to feel, as a player, that if I played that quest, my time was well spent and not just spent. I was busy doing stuff, and didn't think about work or taxes. I experienced a story, or something else that was worth it. That basic rule is still there 100%."

Lego Architecture Neuschwanstein Castle (3,455 pieces)

$280 | Releases August 1

Preorder at Amazon Preorder at The Lego Store

While many of Lego's most popular sets feature famous comic book and video game franchises, some of the most impressive are intricate replicas of real-life architectural triumphs from across history. One such wonder, the Neuschwanstein Castle, is getting a Lego replica on August 1, and you can preorder it now for $280.

Lego Architecture Neuschwanstein Castle (3,455 pieces) $280 | Releases August 1

The 3,455-piece Lego Architecture Neuschwanstein Castle is one of the largest sets from the Lego Architecture line. The set recreates a miniature version of an iconic Bavarian castle, notable for being one of the few European castles unscathed by World War II. The completed set stands 18 inches tall and 12 inches long, featuring attention-grabbing elements such as exterior spires, turrets, a courtyard, staircases, and gabled roofs, as well as surrounding trees that include options for summer or autumn foliage.

Lego has several sets based on other real-world landmarks, such as the impressive Himeji Castle of Japan, Statue of Liberty in New York, Trevi Foundtain of Italy, and the Great Pyramid of Giza. If you're looking for the most intricate build, the Notre Dame Cathedral Lego set is the one to choose, as it's the largest released to date in the Lego Architecture series. This mammoth build has almost 4,400 pieces, and once completed, it's a stunning replica of the famed cathedral.

Barely a month after the launch of Switch 2, Nintendo is set to release the console's next big game, Donkey Kong Bananza, in just a few weeks. It's also the first new game in the franchise since 2014's Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Regardless, there's a little too much pent-up excitement for DK's comeback in the new live-action trailer for Donkey Kong Bananza.

YouTube user MikeyOrlando6665 summed it up pretty well in the top comment on the video: "Thank you for telling me this trailer wasn't representative of the gameplay experience. I totally thought I'd have to play DK in front of a large crowd of people chanting DK instead of my usual gameplay experience of sitting alone in my basement in my underwear crying."

Most of the footage features the game's 3D platforming experience, but it also showcases a side-scrolling sequence that serves as a callback to the original Donkey Kong Country from 1994. Donkey Kong creator Shigeru Miyamoto recently explained why Bananza ditched DK's long-standing Donkey Kong Country design in favor of a more contemporary look.

Seinfeld fans can save big on the complete series on 4K or 1080p Blu-ray at Amazon ahead of Prime Day 2025. Sony finally released the legendary '90s sitcom on Blu-ray last December, but adding the remastered complete series to your collection in time for Festivus would've set you back $250. At the moment, you can get Seinfeld: The Complete Series for $167 on 4K Blu-ray or $103 for 1080p. This is by far the lowest price yet for the 4K collection and just about matches the briefly offered all-time low for the standard Blu-ray ($101 in April).

And if you love Seinfeld, you may also be interested in checking out Curb Your Enthusiasm: The Complete Series on DVD while it's on sale for the pretty, pretty, pretty nice price of $69.

Seinfeld: The Complete Series on 4K Blu-ray $167.59 (was $250)

Seinfeld: The Complete Series remasters all 180 episodes in 4K resolution with support for HDR10. The 4K remaster retains the show's original aspect ratio of 1.33:1. Audio was upgraded to DTS-HD 5.1 surround sound.

With 180 episodes at around 22 minutes each, all nine seasons provide roughly 66 hours of watch time. In addition to every episode from Seinfeld's remarkable run, this box set comes with roughly three hours of bonus features, including deleted scenes, bloopers, and featurettes. Select episodes also have audio commentaries.

The 4K edition of Seinfeld: The Complete Series has one exclusive bonus feature: a two-part roundtable discussion featuring the cast.

Seinfeld's 4K Blu-ray collection was originally priced at $250, which is quite a lot, but 4K TV collections of this size often cost $200 or more out of the gate. Another '90s TV juggernaut, Friends, released on 4K a few months before Seinfeld for the same $250 price. For comparison, Friends: The Complete Series on 4K Blu-ray is currently available for $133.

The Blu-ray edition of Seinfeld: The Complete Series includes all 180 episodes in 1080p resolution. You'll miss out on HDR, and the show is displayed in widescreen format with an aspect ratio of 1.78:1. This will be familiar to anyone who has watched Seinfeld on Netflix. If you want era-accurate presentation, you'll want to opt for the 4K edition instead. The audio is the same across both sets (DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1).

The 1080p Blu-ray edition comes with all of the extras found in the 4K collection except for the roundtable discussion. As mentioned, the roundtable is exclusive to the 4K edition.

Seinfeld's complete run released on DVD back in 2018. If you'd like to watch the series in standard. definition--ideally on a CRT TV--you can pick up the DVD box set for $75 (was $120) at Amazon.

As great as Seinfeld was, series co-creator Larry David followed it up with an even better television show: Curb Your Enthusiasm. If you haven't watched it, Larry David stars as himself, the co-creator of Seinfeld. Not only is David a terrific writer, he's one of the funniest actors around.

Curb Your Enthusiasm's similar style of humor, wit, and outlandish antics make it feel like a spiritual successor to Seinfeld. But since Curb aired on HBO, it had the freedom to cross lines a network TV show like Seinfeld can't get away with.

Curb Your Enthusiasm debuted in 2000, two years after Seinfeld wrapped, and ended its run last year with a total of 120 episodes across 12 seasons.

You can stream the complete series on Max, buy digital episodes from platforms like Prime Video, or pick up all 12 seasons on DVD. Curb Your Enthusiasm: The Complete Series is discounted to $69 (was $165) at Amazon.

Unfortunately, Curb hasn't made its way to 4K Blu-ray or even 1080p Blu-ray. The original $165 price for the 24-disc DVD box set was rather high, but for nearly $100 less? As Larry would say, that's "pretty, pretty, pretty good."

Lego Star Wars: AT-ST Ultimate Collector Series (1,513 Pieces)

$200 | Releases August 1

Preorder at Amazon

The next Ultimate Collector Series set in Lego's Star Wars collection focuses on one of the most beloved transport vehicles from the original trilogy: the AT-ST Walker. Slated to launch August 1, the 1,513-piece AT-ST model kit for adults is the cheapest member of the exclusive UCS club that you can find in stores today. You can preorder the Lego Star Wars: AT-ST Ultimate Collector Series set for $200 at Amazon.

Lego Star Wars: AT-ST Ultimate Collector Series (1,513 Pieces) $200 | Releases August 1

The All Terrain Scout Transport, better known as AT-ST, has been part of the Star Wars movie universe since The Empire Strikes Back. The 1,513-piece building set creates a detailed replica that looks quite similar to the AT-ST from Return of the Jedi.

The completed build measures 14.5 x 8.5 x 8.5 inches and has multiple interactive components, including an openable top hatch covering the cockpit, a rotating head, viewport shutters, and adjustable laser cannons. The AT-ST is well-known for its unique gait that resembles a chicken. Lego's AT-ST has articulated legs, so you can move it around like a real chicken walker.

As an Ultimate Collector Series set, this AT-ST has a myriad of small details that you won't find on transport walkers in Lego's playsets. The spacious two-person cockpit has finer details that make it more aligned with its appearance in the movies. UCS builds also take a more thoughtful approach when it comes to layering and visible studs, and the promotional images reflect that here. The build process is generally more complex with an Ultimate Collector Series set, so the AT-ST and UCS sets are recommended for experienced builders ages 18 and up.

Like all UCS Star Wars builds and other large-scale display models, the AT-ST comes with an information plaque and a minifigure. Appropriately, the minifigure for this kit is an AT-ST Driver.
