Earlier this week, Bungie announced that the next stage in Destiny, The Year of Prophecy, will begin on July 15 with the launch of its first expansion, The Edge of Fate. Among the announcements, the company has now teased additional changes to the Vault and Power level system, as well as confirming how it's approaching incorporating Star Wars content into the canon.

Assistant game director Robbie Stevens confirmed on Bungie's blog that the events during the Renegades DLC will be canon within Destiny, going deeper than just aesthetics and ornaments when the expansion drops in December.

"Rest assured, Guardians, everything in Renegades is in-canon for the Destiny universe," he said. "But we're leaning into the aesthetic, tone and vibe of Star Wars to tell a Destiny story with Destiny characters."

Robert Francis Prevost, who just became Pope Leo XIV, is just like you and me: He plays video games.

His brother, John Prevost, told NBC Chicago that he and Robert recently played games like Wordle and Words with Friends to help take his mind off the decision about whether or not he would be elected the new pope. He didn't have to wait long, though, as Prevost was named the new pope on the second day of the conclave.

John also revealed that his brother just recently watched the 2024 movie Conclave, which tells the story of the appointment of a new pope.

The item shop in Deadlock will look significantly different the next time you log in to Valve's third-person MOBA. The developer has overhauled the shop, adding new items, icons, costs, and more. Despite the patch notes saying that the major update is "coming soon," it's already live in-game.

Item slots were previously tied to specific tree types, but they will now be universal. Item-specific slots being replaced with universal slots removes the problem of some heroes feeling weaker due to needing up to six items of a particular kind to efficiently launch a counterattack after falling behind. Formerly, you had the ability to unlock four flex slots which served the same purpose. With the total slot count being reduced from 16 to 12, we can assume these flex slots are no longer available for unlock.

The new item shop interface

There are "many" new items being added to the store according to the patch notes, and all item icons have got new artwork which makes the items and their purpose more easily identifiable.
