PVP Card games are ever-expanding beasts. As a game ages, if the creators properly support their content there will be a large influx of cards over the course of the years. One only has to look to the incredible library of cards available in industry behemoth Magic: The Gathering to get a sense of the massive scale some of these games can reach. Hearthstone is quickly becoming a leader in the virtual card game market, and each expansion adds over 100 cards to the game’s collection. With how random collecting the cards for Journey to Un’goro has been thus far, it can be hard to get a sense of how exactly decks built from this expansion’s cards play. This week’s Hearthstone Tavern Brawl seeks to give players a taste of how complete Journey to Un’Goro decks play for each class, a welcome addition for new and veteran players alike.

Every Wednesday in Hearthstone, the rules for the more light-hearted gameplay mode – Tavern Brawl – change to introduce new quirks and mechanics that add to the playstyle of the normal game. The Tavern Brawl quirks are varying and wide-reaching, ranging from changing how mana use and ability activation work to challenging players to compete with premade decks. This week’s Tavern Brawl follows the latter, tasking players with playing their way to victory with a variety of Journey to Un’Goro themed decks. Players simply choose a class and they’ll be provided with a Tavern Brawl exclusive deck that gives them a taste of the type of play styles available to each class with the addition of these new cards.

The class you choose while playing Hearthstone has a unique effect on the way you’ll build and play your deck, and the Journey to Un’Goro decks are no exception. As a Druid, stomp your way to victory with a Might of the Dino King deck. The Mage focuses on the elemental side of the expansion’s cards, which is to be expected, while the Hunter’s deck revolves around Dinomancy. The Rogue’s deck revolves around the recent “Quest” mechanic added, while the Warlock features the familiar “Discard Lock”. Check out a full deck list for each class at Hearthpwn.

I think it’s really cool that Blizzard is introducing a Tavern Brawl that lets players get a taste for what class and deck combination they most enjoy. While these decks are far from the only strategies available to build with the cards available from Journey to Un’Goro, they at least give players a glimpse of how Druid or Priest or Hunter will play with these, in many cases game-changing, cards. With how difficult it is to collect the cards without dumping hundreds of dollars, it makes sense to have a goal to shoot for before mindlessly crafting random cards.

Fear not; for those worried about potential censorship issues with the PS5-exclusive Stellar Blade, set to release on April 26th, Sony has got you covered. ShiftUp, the developer, proudly assures players that the game will maintain its uncensored content across all regions, including Japan.

We have to admit, we didn’t anticipate this as a potential issue or a potential selling point. The main character, Eve, and her revealing costumes have been heavily showcased in the game’s pre-release marketing. Nevertheless, it is pleasing to witness ShiftUp’s evident enthusiasm as their vision prepares to reach the hands of a vast number of players.

Regarding Stellar Blade, Yoko Taro believes it surpasses NieR: Automata, and we were pleased to learn that the game will be considerate of your PS5 storage capacity. The demo is now available for you to try, and it has nearly doubled the daily active users of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. This is quite impressive, especially considering it is the game’s first console showing.

Will you be there to experience Stellar Blade on its release day? It’s certainly a relief to witness the game remaining uncensored until the last moment. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

There hasn’t been much buzz lately about any new acquisitions in the world of video game intellectual property. According to a recent report, Sony is currently engaged in discussions with a well-funded partner to potentially acquire the renowned film studio Paramount, along with all the exciting possibilities that come with such a merger.

As reported in the New York Times (thanks, ResetEra), Sony Picture Entertainment is reportedly in discussions with Apollo Global Management, an investment firm, as per two sources familiar with the matter. In the past, Apollo had made an offer to acquire Paramount for a minimum of $26 billion, but their bid was ultimately turned down.

The terms of the joint bid are currently under discussion, and there is a chance that the two parties may decide against making a formal offer. Unnamed sources have revealed that Paramount is currently in exclusive discussions with Skydance, preventing any official offer from being made at this time. Investor opposition to the recent deal that Skydance brought seems to have been significant.

The potential impact of such an acquisition is immense. First and foremost, it would introduce adaptations of Sonic and Halo into the expanding media empire of the PlayStation platform holder. Following the announcement, Paramount’s stock experienced a significant 11% surge in after-hours trading.

What are your thoughts on the news? Is there a possibility of Sony acquiring Paramount? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

In the ongoing conflict against the Automaton invasion fleet, the Helldivers 2 players have successfully halted their advance. However, the situation has now reached a tiresome stalemate. Yet again, the machines refuse to take a break from their relentless pursuit of progress, with reports emerging of the Factory Striders being deployed in record-breaking quantities.

There have been reports of alleged machines that were supposedly encountered during Operation Swift Disassembly, which was just the beginning of a larger campaign. However, these accounts should be taken with a grain of salt, as they are unverified and seem to be more on the imaginative side. Factory Striders have gained a reputation as formidable weapons platforms that can produce more Automatons while enduring significant damage. If the machines are able to withstand such a relentless assault, it will be necessary to develop innovative strategies.

Have you come across groups of Factory Striders in Helldivers 2? Which strategies are proving to be the most effective in taking down these armored brutes? The Orbital Railcannon Strike will prove to be a valuable asset in the comments section below.
