Arc Raiders Movie Night Quest Guide
Apollo is looking to kick back and relax with some movies in the aptly-named Movie Night quest in Arc Raiders. For this outing into the always hectic Stella Montis map, you'll need to go to one of the most dangerous spots and find some old movie tapes, as well as round up a Portable TV. If you want to get in and out quickly, we've got you covered with where to find both.
We'd recommend bringing in an augment with two safe pockets so that you can store these items safely in case your raid goes south. You will need to extract with both of them to complete the quest, after all.

Capcom has released a new Monster Hunter Wilds patch that appears to fix a bug preventing the game from performing better without DLC installed.
Earlier this month, players were reporting major performance issues on Steam, with user de_Tylmarande theorizing that the game performed better on the platform when more DLC was installed. After a thorough investigation, which involved modding their game to make it think they owned all DLC, their performance greatly improved, and the user concluded that Monster Hunter Wilds' performance issues were due to the game doing a constant DLC presence check.
Now, it looks like Capcom has finally resolved the issue with Ver. 1.040.03.01, writing in the patch notes that the issue was brought to the team's attention. It notes that the patch includes "optimization improvements for Steam-specific processes and options to reduce processing load", and explains the issue related to "unclaimed content", which sounds like DLC.

Tim Bender made his name in the video game industry by founding the indie publisher Hooded Horse and has enjoyed a run of hit games--including last year's sleeper Manor Lords--since 2019. Regardless of his own success, Bender recently suggested that indie developers are better off publishing their own games and suggested that some of his rivals are "predatory and opportunistic."
"People can hate me for this if they want," Bender told PC Gamer. "But most indie publishers are not people indie developers should work with. The vast majority of indie publishers, in their whole structure, are predatory and opportunistic."
Bender's argument is that most of the indie developers "don't add a lot" to the success of a game. He went on to elaborate that other publishers are more interested in lining up a large number of games in the hope of investing in popular titles and abandoning the rest.

Arc Raiders has various large, tough-as-nails ARC to fight, but few strike fear into a person's soul like the Bombardier. Its unpredictable mortar shots can dish out massive damage quickly--and if you're caught out in the open, you'd might as prepare to head back to Speranza in a body bag. But if you've come across the Bombing Run quest and want to know where to find one of these so you can wrap it up, we've got you covered below. Here's where to find Bombardiers and how to kill them.
Where to find BombardiersBombardiers can spawn in various spots around each map (except Stella Montis). Below are the general locations you can find Bombardiers. They tend to roam, so you may need to scan the area very well to see if they've strayed a bit.
Gallery Bombardier locations.One way to easily spot a Bombardier from afar is to look for its Spotters, which look similar to Snitches, with blue lights beneath them that scan the area around the giant ARC. Just be careful, as these do exactly what you'd expect and will spot you pretty easily, which will alert the Bombardier. This can spell trouble if you haven't found good cover yet.

Amazon has announced another round of job cuts, with around 16,000 people impacted across the business. Whether or not any cuts are coming at Amazon Games is unknown but the division was recently rocked by layoffs and pullbacks from its MMO teams.
Amazon executive Beth Galetti announced the news in a memo to staff today, January 28. Galetti said the announcement of these layoffs today came after Amazon started a new effort focused on "removing bureaucracy" at the company, following an earlier round of thousands of cuts in October 2025.
"While many teams finalized their organizational changes in October, other teams did not complete that work until now," Galetti said.
