Blizzard Honors Dennis Hawelka’s Legacy with League Award.
A few days ago, the eSports coach from Team Liquid, Dennis Hawelka, passed away. It was a dark day for the world of the competitive Overwatch and League of Legends scenes. However, his departure from this plane of existence didn’t just go through the folks at Blizzard.
The company made an announcement that will make plenty of people happy to hear it. Blizzard will be giving away a special trophy dedicated to Dennis Hawelka and his legacy in Overwatch. They expressed their condolences and announcement through a blog post in the Overwatch League website.
“To the esports world, Dennis was more than just an accomplished player and coach – he was a friend, a confidant, someone people looked towards for guidance and support.” Announces Blizzard before following up with this statement about how much he helped others.
“He reached out to those around him, drew them in and built them up. In doing so, he not only helped forge the foundation of competitive Overwatch worldwide, he changed countless lives for the better, in game and out.”
So, in the memory of Dennis “INTERNETHULK” Hawelka, we’ll see the Dennis Hawelka Award. This award will be presented at the end of each Overwatch League season to the player that Blizzard’s team deem to have had the most positive impact on the community.
This is yet another sign of encouragement to finally leave the toxicity behind. It’s a rewards for people who are charitable enough to help players in need. In the end, the message of Overwatch will always be that the world could use more heroes.
The Dennis Hawelka award is pretty welcome in my opinion, considering they are honoring a very important person’s legacy. And they are not doing so in a disrespectful manner, either. However, in case some of the players want to follow on certain person’s footsteps, there’s always a Toxicity Strike Team waiting.
We’ve been eyeing Broken Roads, an isometric CRPG set in post-apocalyptic Australia, and a developer-led gameplay overview gave us our best look yet.
With a moral compass for existential musings, Disco Elysium fans will love this. On a good day, outback Western Australia looks post-apocalyptic.
Since we last played, combat has changed. Free-form movement replaces grid-based combat maps. Four playable origin stories will keep players busy for 25 hours in the full release.
Broken Roads debuts on PS5 and PS4 in 2023. Is this oatmeal tempting?
Sonic Frontiers’ first DLC arrives this week, delighting fans.
SEGA announced a lot of extra content for the open-zone platformer in 2023 late last year. Owners can simply enjoy the game’s gradual expansion since it’s free.
First, the sights, sounds, and speed update SEGA informs game owners that the content update will arrive on March 23. The content roadmap suggests a jukebox, photo mode, and new challenges, but the email doesn’t elaborate.
Sonic Frontiers’ first DLC—excited?

2K’s PS5 and PS4 LEGO Racing Game Looks Like a Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed Successor
We don’t have Mario Kart on PlayStation, but Sumo Digital’s Sonic & All-Star Racing Transformed is the closest rival to Nintendo’s classic series. LEGO 2K Drive, a weekend leak, appears to have the same energy.
Despite being an open world, screenshots show multifaceted races in LEGO cars, boats, and planes. Images show swamps, freeways, and haunted houses. It looks nice, actually.
2K Sports is developing several LEGO-themed sports games, including a soccer game. The Danish brick manufacturer is revamping its portfolio to include more than just licensed products like LEGO Star Wars and LEGO Harry Potter. (Another of the latter is reportedly coming.)
We’re open to this LEGO-inspired racer because PS5 and PS4 arcade racers are scarce. With Disney Speedstorm and another ModNation racer from Sony, the future may be brighter.
