From the expansive open world to the innovative Rail and Wall Riding mechanics, Mario Kart World is brimming with discoveries. One intriguing element that remains unexplained is the array of giant vehicles you can temporarily commandeer. It quickly becomes apparent that driving into the large question mark opening on their rear is essential for taking control, but locating these vehicles is the initial challenge. Continue reading for a comprehensive guide on where to find every transformative vehicle. 

<h2>Where to find Semi-Trucks</h2> 
<figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2000282753" class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_2000282753"><img alt="Screenshot: Nintendo / Samuel Moreno / Kotaku" class="size-full wp-image-2000282753 cursor-pointer" decoding="async" height="1080" sizes="(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 2rem), (max-width: 1258px) calc((100vw - 3.68rem) * 2 / 3), 800px" src="https://asserts.gameseeks.com/icon/283490530589935033.jpg" width="1920"/><figcaption class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-2000282753">Screenshot: Nintendo / Samuel Moreno / Kotaku</figcaption></figure> 

The Semi-Truck is likely the most familiar to you. It is the largest non-playable vehicle and is easily recognizable by its two containers emblazoned with Mario Kart in bold red letters. Semi-Trucks are commonly found on wide, multi-lane paved roads. They frequently appear in connecting races at locations like Toad’s Factory and the Golden Gate Bridge lookalike linking Crown City to Faraway Oasis. 

Standard circuit races rarely feature long stretches, so encountering these trucks is less common unless you're transitioning between tracks. Rest assured, the thrill of a classic race won’t be disrupted by an overly speedy vehicle.

Another method to drive Semi-Trucks, as well as other vehicles discussed here, is through P-Switch Challenges. The downside is that these are restricted to specific challenges, and there’s no straightforward way to track them other than relying on your memory. 

<h2>Where to find Speedboats</h2> 
<figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2000282754" class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_2000282754"><img alt="Screenshot: Nintendo / Samuel Moreno / Kotaku" class="size-full wp-image-2000282754 cursor-pointer" decoding="async" height="1080" sizes="(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 2rem), (max-width: 1258px) calc((100vw - 3.68rem) * 2 / 3), 800px" src="https://asserts.gameseeks.com/icon/283490553574720953.jpg" width="1920"/><figcaption class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-2000282754">Screenshot: Nintendo / Samuel Moreno / Kotaku</figcaption></figure> 

Next on the list are the dark blue Speedboats that glide over water. Speedboats are scattered along coastlines in Free Roam, though they are predominantly seen in connecting races with Wario Shipyard. If a connecting race takes you into open waters for an extended duration, there's a good chance you’ll encounter a Speedboat. 

The gliding motions significantly influence this vehicle. Tilting the stick upward will dip the boat’s nose into the water, while tilting it downward will raise the nose. Switching between these motions can help you navigate over large waves.

<h2>Where to find Helicopters</h2> 
<figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2000282755" class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_2000282755"><img alt="Screenshot: Nintendo / Samuel Moreno / Kotaku" class="size-full wp-image-2000282755 cursor-pointer" decoding="async" height="1080" sizes="(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 2rem), (max-width: 1258px) calc((100vw - 3.68rem) * 2 / 3), 800px" src="https://asserts.gameseeks.com/icon/283490570553263545.jpg" width="1920"/><figcaption class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-2000282755">Screenshot: Nintendo / Samuel Moreno / Kotaku</figcaption></figure> 

Special vehicles become increasingly rare from this point onward. The Helicopter, with its noticeable chunky orange design, is easy to spot in the sky. Note that these differ from the smaller yellow MKTV helicopters that observe races. Helicopters operate in a predetermined loop, so the best approach to take control in Free Roam is to track it until it lands momentarily. 

Locating them during a race can be inconsistent. They are not tied to specific environments like Semi-Trucks and Speedboats. I've noticed more variation in their appearances, sometimes integral to races such as from DK Spaceport to Peace Stadium. Alternatively, they might be tucked away behind buildings in races from Mario Bros. Circuit to Toad Factory.

Helicopter controls fully utilize the Joy-con’s stick with an inverted flight orientation: Pushing it up will cause the Helicopter to descend, while pushing it down will make it ascend. 

<h2>Where to find UFOs</h2> 
<figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2000282756" class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_2000282756"><img alt="Screenshot: Nintendo / Samuel Moreno / Kotaku" class="size-full wp-image-2000282756 cursor-pointer" decoding="async" height="1080" loading="lazy" sizes="(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 2rem), (max-width: 1258px) calc((100vw - 3.68rem) * 2 / 3), 800px" src="https://asserts.gameseeks.com/icon/283490591759664569.jpg" width="1920"/><figcaption class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-2000282756">Screenshot: Nintendo / Samuel Moreno / Kotaku</figcaption></figure> 

This brings us to the final and rarest vehicle—the UFO. I haven’t encountered this during a race, but it does appear sporadically in Free Roam. Keep an eye on the sky, and you might spot this saucer with vibrant lights hovering around. UFOs usually remain in motion, but if you follow one long enough, it will eventually descend, allowing you to enter its tractor beam and take control.

You don’t have to depend solely on chance to find one in the wild. At least one stationary UFO can be found in Free Roam and resets after interaction. This UFO is located on a cliff overlooking the river between Dry Bones Burnout and Mario Bros. Circuit. Specifically, it’s on the cliff left of the great staircase leading to the Dry Bones Burnout area. Follow the mountainside left until you can ascend the slope and spot a set of torches and a metal fence. Follow the path to find the UFO, a few cows, and a Nabbit to capture. 

UFO controls resemble those of the Helicopter, with the stick managing both ascent and descent. A notable difference is that pressing the R button activates the tractor beam, enabling you to pick up various items, from other cars and coins to enemy NPCs. 

Even though the open world can occasionally seem sparse, Mario Kart World offers numerous engaging elements and secrets to uncover. Continue exploring the environment and tracks! You never know where large vehicles might be waiting.

Let’s delve into the duration of the Donkey Kong Bananza campaign and explore additional activities beyond it. <h2>How long does it take to complete Donkey Kong Bananza?</h2> If your goal is to quickly power through Donkey Kong's latest adventure, you should plan on spending roughly 10-15 hours to complete the Donkey Kong Bananza campaign. This provides a substantial experience, especially in an era where many 3D platformers are significantly shorter. And that's just the main adventure! There's still plenty of monkey business to enjoy beyond that. Read More: Discover What Amiibos Can Unlock in Donkey Kong Bananza The world of Donkey Kong Bananza is richly packed with additional activities beyond just finishing the main campaign.

You can choose to seek out everything in Donkey Kong Bananza during your first playthrough, or return for more after completing the main storyline.

More importantly, they often provide beneficial passive bonuses such as enhanced swimming speed or reduced damage from poison. Any advantage for survival is welcome, right? Whether you're speeding through the campaign or aiming for 100% completion, you can start smashing your way through Donkey Kong Bananza immediately.

After the phenomenal success of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 in 2020, it was inevitable that more of the iconic skater's cherished games would receive the remake treatment. Now, nearly five years later, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 has finally arrived on the scene, boasting a fresh, vibrant look and a multitude of enhancements, making it the ultimate way to enjoy these two skating classics. However, if you have friends playing on different platforms, you might be wondering if you can join them in multiplayer matches in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4. You may also be curious about the duration these two games will entertain you. Let’s explore everything you need to know about this timeless skating adventure. <h2>Does Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 support crossplay?</h2> If you're eager to jump online and skate with friends who are on other platforms, you're in luck! Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 fully supports crossplay across all platforms. This means you can effortlessly join multiplayer games with up to seven other players across all consoles and PC, providing ample opportunities for grinding rails and executing tricks together.

<h2>Does Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 support cross-progression?</h2> While the ability to play with anyone online is a significant advantage for virtual skaters everywhere, cross-progression fans won’t find the same level of support. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 does not offer cross-progression at all. This means any progress you make on one platform will not transfer to another, necessitating a fresh start if you choose to play on multiple devices. <h2>How many skaters are in the games?</h2> <figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2000618079" class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_2000618079"><img alt="Bam Margera pulls a trick." class="size-full wp-image-2000618079 cursor-pointer" decoding="async" height="1080" sizes="(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 2rem), (max-width: 1258px) calc((100vw - 3.68rem) * 2 / 3), 800px" src="https://asserts.gameseeks.com/icon/283481425410262457.jpg" width="1920"/><figcaption class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-2000618079">© Screenshot: Iron Galaxy Studios</figcaption></figure> THPS 3 + 4 provides a total of 29 skaters to select from, with several hidden ones available for unlocking. <ul> <li aria-level="1">Andrew Reynolds</li> <li aria-level="1">Aori Nishimura</li> <li aria-level="1">Aurélien Giraud</li> <li aria-level="1">Bob Burnquist</li> <li aria-level="1">Bucky Lasek</li> <li aria-level="1">Chad Muska</li> <li aria-level="1">Chloe Covell</li> <li aria-level="1">Elissa Steamer</li> <li aria-level="1">Eric Koston</li> <li aria-level="1">Geoff Rowley</li> <li aria-level="1">Jamie Foy</li> <li aria-level="1">Jamie Thomas</li> <li aria-level="1">Kareem Campbell</li> <li aria-level="1">Leo Baker</li> <li aria-level="1">Leticia Bufoni</li> <li aria-level="1">Lizzie Armanto</li> <li aria-level="1">Margielyn Didal</li> <li aria-level="1">Nora Vasconcellos</li> <li aria-level="1">Nyjah Huson</li> <li aria-level="1">Rayssa Leal</li> <li aria-level="1">Riley Hawk</li> <li aria-level="1">Rodney Mullen</li> <li aria-level="1">Rune Glifberg</li> <li aria-level="1">Shane O’Neill</li> <li aria-level="1">Steve Cabellero</li> <li aria-level="1">Tony Hawk</li> <li aria-level="1">Tyshawn Jones</li> <li aria-level="1">Yuto Horigome</li> <li aria-level="1">Zion Wright</li> </ul> You can also unlock: <ul> <li aria-level="1">Andy Anderson</li> <li aria-level="1">Bam Margera</li> <li aria-level="1">Birdman</li> <li aria-level="1">Constable Richard (Officer Dick)</li> <li aria-level="1">Michelangelo</li> </ul> The Doom Slayer and Revenant from the recent Doom games are also available through the Digital Deluxe Edition.

<h2>How long is Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4?</h2> Regrettably, THPS 4 doesn’t include a Career mode, but you can still complete certain objectives in various parks like Foundry and Shipyard. In THPS 3, there are 9 parks to explore and 10 in THPS 4. Each park features ten Standard goals and five Pro goals. Completing all of the Standard goals typically takes about 4-5 hours. Once all Standard goals are achieved, Pro goals will be unlocked. After finishing Pro goals, you’ll gain access to Platinum goals. Each park has one, usually involving executing a specific move somewhere within the park. These additional tasks should take around another 5 hours.

<h2>Getting 100-percent in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4</h2> <figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2000618080" class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_2000618080"><img alt="Tony Hawk pulls a trick." class="size-full wp-image-2000618080 cursor-pointer" decoding="async" height="1080" sizes="(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 2rem), (max-width: 1258px) calc((100vw - 3.68rem) * 2 / 3), 800px" src="https://asserts.gameseeks.com/icon/283481460071990713.jpg" width="1920"/><figcaption class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-2000618080">© Screenshot: Iron Galaxy Studios</figcaption></figure> After completing all the Pro goals, Solo Tour is unlocked, and this is where the true time investment begins. One trophy/achievement, called Flying Solo, requires you to complete the Solo Tour with all 35 characters. Yes, you’ll need to play through this mode at least 35 times. This is undoubtedly the most time-intensive aspect of obtaining all achievements. However, it’s crucial to know that you do not have to achieve 100% with every skater, which includes optional challenges. You only need to complete each skater’s unique career path for it to count towards Flying Solo. You do NOT need 100% with each skater. Simply finish their unique career path once.

Fortunately, there are no missable trophies/achievements, allowing you to pursue them in any order you choose. Additionally, there are no difficulty-based ones, so you can adjust the settings to your preference without concern. Overall, acquiring all of the trophies/achievements should take between 25-35 hours. However, certain assist mods like Perfect Rail Balance and Instant Quick Recovery can void trophies/achievements. There are two of them, which are “Extra Ball” and “Unprecedented.” Their descriptions specifically state that you cannot have assist mods activated.

Extra Ball: “Without Assist Mods, score 1,000,000 or over in Pinball.” Unprecedented: “Without Assist Mods, earn a score of 10,000,000 in any park in a 2-minute session or single combo.” It appears these two are the only ones affected by assist mods, so you can activate them when pursuing other trophies/achievements. Good luck, and have fun! <hr/> If you’re ready to team up with friends and explore skateparks and beyond in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4, you can dive in right away. The game is currently available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, and Windows PCs.

The latest installment in the AI: Somnium Files franchise was released last month, offering a shorter experience than its predecessors. No Sleep for Kaname Date is a spin-off set between the first two games, AI: The Somnium Files and AI: The Somnium Files -Nirvana Initiative-, and marks the return of our original hero, Kaname Date. This time, Kaname Date embarks on a mission to rescue our beloved idol Iris, who has been kidnapped by a UFO and must navigate a series of escape games to stay alive. Directed by Kazuya Yamada and supervised by the original series creator Uchikoshi, No Sleep for Kaname Date introduces escape room puzzles reminiscent of the Zero Escape series, which Uchikoshi also developed. These escape room challenges add depth to No Sleep for Kaname Date despite its notably shorter duration. <h2>How long is No Sleep for Kaname Date?</h2> No Sleep for Kaname features five chapters to explore, with numerous "dead-end" endings to discover.

Throughout the game, you'll encounter "Somniums" (distinct from the escape rooms), which are pseudo puzzles that must be solved to advance the narrative. During these Somnium investigations, time is of the essence, so you won’t have the leisure to inspect every object. However, examining each item grants "eyeballs," an in-game currency used to unlock bonus content after completing the main story (rest assured, there are no real-world microtransactions involved). You can also gather more eyeballs by discovering collectibles hidden throughout the game. Some unlockable bonuses include concept art and special endings known as "alternate alternate endings." These require a certain number of eyeballs to access, and some bonuses might only appear after achieving specific alternate endings within the story. <figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2000618125" class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_2000618125"><img alt="Characters look at a puzzle." class="size-full wp-image-2000618125 cursor-pointer" decoding="async" height="720" sizes="(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 2rem), (max-width: 1258px) calc((100vw - 3.68rem) * 2 / 3), 800px" src="https://asserts.gameseeks.com/icon/283480839449216441.jpg" width="1280"/><figcaption class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-2000618125">© Screenshot: Spike Chunsoft Co., Ltd.</figcaption></figure> You will need to replay certain chapters, Somniums, and escape room puzzles to uncover the alternate endings, but thankfully, the game’s flowchart indicates which chapters contain them. This way, you won’t have to search aimlessly.

Considering everything, a full playthrough of No Sleep for Kaname Date is estimated to take approximately 12-15 hours, depending on your skill at solving the escape puzzles. <h2>How many Achievements does No Sleep for Kaname Date have?</h2> No Sleep for Kaname Date is available on both Switch and Steam. While the Switch version lacks an achievement system, the Steam version includes one. Due to the game’s shorter length, you can expect to spend an additional five hours to unlock all of the achievements. <h2>Is No Sleep for Kaname Date on PlayStation or Xbox?</h2> At present, No Sleep for Kaname Date is only available on Switch and Steam. While the previous games were released across all platforms, including PC, PlayStation, Switch, and Xbox, No Sleep for Kaname Date has not yet been announced for PlayStation and Xbox.

<figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2000618126" class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_2000618126"><img alt="Characters chat with one another." class="size-full wp-image-2000618126 cursor-pointer" decoding="async" height="1080" sizes="(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 2rem), (max-width: 1258px) calc((100vw - 3.68rem) * 2 / 3), 800px" src="https://asserts.gameseeks.com/icon/283480863490966969.jpg" width="1920"/><figcaption class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-2000618126">© Screenshot: Spike Chunsoft Co., Ltd.</figcaption></figure> However, this does not rule out the possibility of developer Spike Chunsoft expanding its availability in the future. For example, 2023's Master Detective Archives: Rain Code was initially a Switch exclusive before being released on all other platforms over a year later. Given the history with AI: The Somnium Files, it's certainly feasible that No Sleep for Kaname Date might eventually be released on additional platforms. <hr/> No Sleep for Kaname Date – From AI: The Somnium Files is set to launch on July 25 for both Switch/Switch 2 and PC.

Soccer, also known as football, is the most beloved sport worldwide, so it's no surprise that an engaging online multiplayer game capturing the essence of this sport would be widely embraced. Developer Sloclap has hit the mark with Rematch, scoring big with its fans. Following the legacy of cherished games like Rocket League, with its lively, arcade-style play that brings teams together in intense competitions, Rematch offers everything one could desire in a soccer game. 
If you’re diving into the high-energy matches of Rematch and are curious about teaming up with friends across different platforms, you’re probably wondering about the game’s crossplay capabilities. Here's the information you need regarding crossplay in Rematch. 
Regrettably, Rematch does not support crossplay at the moment. However, don't be too disheartened, as Sloclap has some promising news for soccer enthusiasts eagerly waiting for this feature. It has been confirmed that crossplay will be introduced around the end of August with Patch 3:

<blockquote>“Patch 3 is expected to arrive by the end of August, addressing some lingering issues and, most importantly, finally introducing Crossplay to the game. Some gameplay adjustments may also be included in Patch 3 (we're looking at you, Ippy Slide), but that is yet to be confirmed. More updates will be coming soon!”</blockquote> 
Upon launch, the studio stated, “It's crucial for us that our players can enjoy Rematch with their friends, so along with bug fixes, crossplay is our top priority. We are dedicated to delivering this feature swiftly and will provide a more specific timeline as soon as possible.” 
Therefore, we can anticipate more updates on this feature in the near future as Sloclap continues to work diligently on this popular game. Meanwhile, you'll need to continue playing Rematch with friends within your current gaming environment. It’s a bit of a letdown, but at least you know it’s a temporary situation!

Rematch is currently available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Windows PCs.

For PC players, this setting is already active, so there's no additional step required to play with console users. <h2>Does Rainbow Six Siege X support cross-progression?</h2> Let’s clarify this: Yes, Rainbow Six Siege X does offer cross-progression. However, there are details about its functionality that you can explore on the official website. The key point is that when you link platforms via your Ubisoft Account, your progress across all platforms is combined and updated to reflect the highest level you've achieved. For instance, if you've reached Clearance Level 10 on one platform and Level 25 on another, your overall Clearance Level will be set to 25 once linked.

PUBG: Battlegrounds was among the first battle royale games to be released and is largely credited with bringing the sub-genre to the forefront of gaming. Despite its long tenure, it continues to keep its update momentum going, attracting both new and returning players eager to stealthily loot and fight their way to that coveted chicken dinner. Whether you're returning after a long hiatus or exploring the game for the first time, you might be curious about its cross-platform capabilities. Here's everything you need to know about crossplay and cross-progression in PUBG: Battlegrounds. Regrettably, the crossplay feature in PUBG: Battlegrounds isn't entirely straightforward. While the game does support crossplay, it adopts a more restricted approach compared to many other multiplayer games. Let me clarify the details for you below.

<ul> <li aria-level="1">Crossplay is available between PlayStation and Xbox consoles.</li> <li aria-level="1">Crossplay is not available between consoles and PC.</li> <li aria-level="1">Crossplay is not available between any platforms and PUBG: Mobile, as it is a separate game altogether.</li> </ul> So, as you can see, PlayStation and Xbox are the only platforms that can play together. This means that if you're on console and have friends on PC, unfortunately, you won't be able to play with them. <h2>Does PUBG: Battlegrounds have cross-progression?</h2> When it comes to cross-progression in PUBG: Battlegrounds, things are more straightforward. Unfortunately, PUBG: Battlegrounds does not support cross-progression at all. This means that if you start playing the game on one platform and make significant progress, you'll need to create a new account and start over if you switch to a different platform. It's certainly disappointing that cross-progression isn't available in one of the most cherished battle royale games globally. However, considering it was launched before cross-platform features became standard, it's somewhat understandable. <hr/> PUBG: Battlegrounds is currently available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Windows PCs.

Overwatch 2 continues to hold its place as one of the most beloved games in the multiplayer sphere. Its charming roster of characters, engaging strategic gameplay, and regular updates keep the game invigorating for both newcomers and returning players alike. If you're new to the game or haven't played in a while, you might be curious about what's currently happening in this enduring hero shooter. Let's delve into everything you need to know about Overwatch 2 as we approach the end of summer in 2025. <h2>What’s going on with the current season?</h2> Right now, Overwatch 2 is in the final stages of season 17. This season has introduced some reworks to New Junk City and Suravasa, along with a sneak peek of what's coming in season 18, including a preview of a new support hero named Wuyang. You can currently try out Wuyang as his Hero Trial is available until August 18. Season 18 is set to officially launch on August 26, bringing Wuyang into the roster as a permanent addition. Additionally, Sojourn is set to receive a new mythic hero skin for the new season. For more details, you can check out the dev livestream here.

The Deceleration Field will replace the Extended Mag, slowing down enemies by a quarter of their maximum speed. Sojourn’s Adhesive Siphon will make way for her new Friction Generators, allowing her to gain up to 50 energy while sliding. To read more about these updates and changes to Juno, check out this official preview of season 18. <h2>Who are the best heroes right now?</h2> While season 18 is poised to shake things up, currently Orisa and Ramattra are leading the charge in the tank category, with Tracer and Cassidy proving to be the top choices for DPS, and Baptiste and Kiriko reigning supreme among the support heroes. Of course, given the critical role of teamwork, identifying the best heroes can be challenging. If you've been away from the game for a while, it might be worthwhile to jump back in with a familiar main. Should they no longer meet your expectations, consider trying one of the mentioned heroes.

<h2>Does Overwatch 2 have crossplay support?</h2> For those eager to team up with friends on different platforms, there’s good news: Overwatch 2 fully supports crossplay. This feature allows you to join forces with friends on any platform by simply adding each other’s Battle.net accounts, which is a straightforward process. The only exception to this crossplay feature is in Competitive matches, where console and PC players are kept separate due to the perceived advantage of mouse and keyboard users. While this might be a letdown for hardcore players aiming to prove their skills, most players will find enjoyment in casual modes like Quick Play, Arcade, and Custom Matches. It's not too shabby!

<h2>Does Overwatch 2 have cross-progression?</h2> The positive news continues, as Overwatch 2 also offers complete cross-progression support. This feature allows you to seamlessly switch between platforms while maintaining your account's progress. So, if you want to enjoy a few matches on your PC and then relax with your Nintendo Switch 2 in bed, nothing is stopping you. Just make sure you're logged into the same Battle.net account on each device, and you're all set! <hr/> Overwatch 2 is currently available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and Windows PCs.

Few games achieve the widespread recognition that Fortnite enjoys. Even your grandmother is familiar with it, having spent $700 on V-Bucks for your cousin last month so he can transform into a hot dog or something equally quirky. This adored battle royale shows no signs of losing momentum anytime soon. Perhaps it's been some time since you last played, or you haven't yet experienced your first leap from the party bus. Here’s what you need to know to dive into Fortnite in 2025. <h2>What’s the deal with the current season?</h2> As of now, Fortnite is in Chapter 6, Season 4, which began on August 7, 2025. This season introduces new characters from Halo and Power Rangers. Expect it to last until the autumn before the next season kicks off. This season brings a pest-control theme to the island. Across the map, you'll encounter various unsightly nests, eggs, and similar elements. You'll also need to defeat three queen insects to acquire a mythic weapon. For comprehensive details on these pests and their locations, check out the official blog post.

<h2>What are the best guns in the game right now?</h2> Currently, it’s all about SMGs, folks. The Veiled Precision SMG stands out as a top contender for taking down enemies swiftly. However, the Deadeye DMR is also a fantastic choice for those who prefer precise shooting. And if you're looking to make a unique impression while eliminating multiple adversaries, the Bug Blaster is worth trying. <h2>What got vaulted/unvaulted?</h2> This season brings several updates to the game’s arsenal, as noted by Osirion on X. <div class="twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered" style="display: flex; max-width: 500px; width: 100%; margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"><iframe allowfullscreen="true" allowtransparency="true" class="" data-tweet-id="1953357145140809934" frameborder="0" id="twitter-widget-0" scrolling="no" src="https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?creatorScreenName=Kotaku&amp;dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=eyJ0ZndfdGltZWxpbmVfbGlzdCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOltdLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X2ZvbGxvd2VyX2NvdW50X3N1bnNldCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOnRydWUsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdHdlZXRfZWRpdF9iYWNrZW5kIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6Im9uIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH0sInRmd19yZWZzcmNfc2Vzc2lvbiI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfZm9zbnJfc29mdF9pbnRlcnZlbnRpb25zX2VuYWJsZWQiOnsiYnVja2V0Ijoib24iLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X21peGVkX21lZGlhXzE1ODk3Ijp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6InRyZWF0bWVudCIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfZXhwZXJpbWVudHNfY29va2llX2V4cGlyYXRpb24iOnsiYnVja2V0IjoxMjA5NjAwLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X3Nob3dfYmlyZHdhdGNoX3Bpdm90c19lbmFibGVkIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6Im9uIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH0sInRmd19kdXBsaWNhdGVfc2NyaWJlc190b19zZXR0aW5ncyI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdXNlX3Byb2ZpbGVfaW1hZ2Vfc2hhcGVfZW5hYmxlZCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdmlkZW9faGxzX2R5bmFtaWNfbWFuaWZlc3RzXzE1MDgyIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6InRydWVfYml0cmF0ZSIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfbGVnYWN5X3RpbWVsaW5lX3N1bnNldCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOnRydWUsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdHdlZXRfZWRpdF9mcm9udGVuZCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9fQ%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1953357145140809934&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fkotaku.com%2Ffortnite-chapter-6-season-4-halo-power-rangers-bugs-crossplay-2000618095&amp;sessionId=ab7ef2f155753a3945704a0b70846a33226ba096&amp;siteScreenName=Kotaku&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=500px" style="position: static; visibility: visible; width: 500px; height: 959px; display: block; flex-grow: 1;" title="X Post"></iframe></div> <script async="" charset="utf-8" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script>   <h2>Does Fortnite have crossplay?</h2> In a world where bad news is often prevalent, here's a bright spot: Fortnite supports full crossplay! This feature allows you to effortlessly join friends on other platforms, ensuring nobody misses out on the fun. Whether you're gaming on console, PC, or mobile, just add your friends through Epic Games to start playing together. It’s that simple!

<h2>Does Fortnite have cross-progression?</h2> I've got even more positive news: Fortnite offers full cross-progression. This means you can play on your account across any supported device you own. Win a few matches on PS5, Xbox, or PC, then continue the fun on your Nintendo Switch 2. And if you prefer not to carry a dedicated portable gaming device, simply use your phone for some mobile matches. Yes, it's truly that seamless. In essence, wherever you go, Fortnite follows. Watching. Waiting. Anticipating your return. Needing your attention. It craves your spending. You desire that new skin. Purchase it. Wear it. Your current skin is inadequate. Theirs is superior. Anyway. <hr/> Fortnite is currently accessible on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, Windows PCs, and mobile devices.

The Gears of War franchise holds a significant place in the hearts of Xbox fans, yet the landscape is evolving. While the series has been accessible on PC before, Gears of War: Reloaded marks a new chapter as it expands to a Sony platform. Indeed, this comprehensive remaster of the original game in the series is now available on PS5, in addition to Xbox and PC, complete with all the enhancements you’d anticipate.

After all, there’s nothing quite like shredding through enemies with shotguns alongside friends. So, let’s explore whether Gears of War: Reloaded supports crossplay and if you can transfer your progress across different platforms. <h2>Does Gears of War: Reloaded have crossplay support?</h2> If you’re excited to engage in intense gunfights with friends, there’s fantastic news in store for you! Gears of War: Reloaded fully supports cross-play, allowing you to join forces with players on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. No matter the platform, each player will need to log into their Microsoft accounts to make crossplay possible, but setting this up is straightforward.

Crossplay is available for both cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes, so you and your friends can either tackle the campaign or face off against opponents online. Just remember, whatever you do, don’t take me out. I’m notoriously bad at Gears multiplayer, so go easy on me. Mom insists. <h2>Does Gears of War: Reloaded have cross-progression?</h2> In yet another piece of uplifting news amidst a sea of challenges, Gears of War: Reloaded also features cross-progression. This means your progress can seamlessly transfer across any platform where you own the game. If you begin your journey on PC and later decide to switch to PS5, you can do so effortlessly! You’d just need to purchase the game again on Sony’s platform, and you can continue right from where you paused. Cross-progression is applicable to both your campaign and multiplayer progress, ensuring you don’t lose a thing when switching between platforms. As with crossplay, a Microsoft account is necessary to utilize this feature, but that’s pretty standard. <hr/> Gears of War: Reloaded will be available starting August 26 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Windows PCs.

If you're someone who enjoys quirky platformers filled with charm and whimsy, then Ruffy and the Riverside might be the game for you. In this unusual 3D platformer, you play as the titular character who has the unique ability to copy and paste textures, allowing you to alter the environment to solve puzzles and explore new areas. Ruffy and the Riverside offers a delightful experience if you're up for its frenetic gameplay and distinctive art style. You might be curious about how long it will take to complete this lively adventure and what additional content is available to explore. Let's delve into those details for you. If you focus solely on the main campaign of Ruffy and the Riverside, you can probably finish the game in about 6-8 hours. This makes it relatively shorter than some other 3D platformers, but its whimsical gameplay and inventive puzzles ensure that every moment is engaging. However, you might wish for a few more hours when you realize how short the main quest is, especially if you really enjoy using the Swap ability to scatter textures across the map.

Fortunately, Ruffy and the Riverside offers plenty of optional activities that can prolong your experience, especially if you're aiming to collect all the trophies or achievements. You'll need to discover various optional secrets and collectibles and swap textures over a thousand times. Given that the Swap ability is a core part of the gameplay loop, you'll naturally progress towards that goal anyway. Whether you're eager to complete the campaign or uncover every secret, you can dive into the adventure right away. Ruffy and the Riverside is now available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and Windows PCs.

When you first come across Ratshaker on the PlayStation store, it might seem like just another piece of shovelware, crafted for easy trophy acquisition. I initially thought the same. However, I noticed the game gaining attention on various subreddits, with many users agreeing that it's a surreal horror experience worth its modest price. Curious, I decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did. 
Despite its low-res graphics, short duration, and relatively simple trophy achievements, Ratshaker transcends the usual limitations of shovelware. It offers something truly intriguing for dedicated horror enthusiasts. The game involves shaking and squeezing a rat to solve basic adventure-style puzzles in a house where something terrible has occurred. Yes, it’s bizarre. 
Although Ratshaker’s straightforward concept initially seems quirky and humorous, don’t be deceived. As you delve deeper into the house and uncover its dark history, Ratshaker presents genuinely disturbing events that may linger in your mind. If that piques your interest, here's how long it will take to complete this unique experience.

<h2>How long does it take to beat Ratshaker?</h2> 
Ratshaker is an inexpensive game with a brief runtime, so don't anticipate a grand adventure. Instead, you'll experience a profoundly strange horror mystery that takes about an hour to unfold. The short time spent with Ratshaker feels just right. The game doesn't require much time to convey its narrative, which is more unsettling than you might predict, even after its disturbing beginning. 
<figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2000618068" class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_2000618068"><img alt="A man holds a rat in a hallway." class="size-full wp-image-2000618068 cursor-pointer" decoding="async" height="1080" sizes="(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 2rem), (max-width: 1258px) calc((100vw - 3.68rem) * 2 / 3), 800px" src="https://asserts.gameseeks.com/icon/283481695422776761.jpg" width="1920"/><figcaption class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-2000618068">© Screenshot: Sunscorched Studios</figcaption></figure> 
For those also interested in Ratshaker for its relatively simple platinum trophy, be aware that some trophies can be missed during the adventure. To achieve the platinum trophy, you'll need to experience both the true ending and a secret ending, but this can be accomplished in one playthrough with careful save management. A guide can help ensure you don't miss these trophies if you prefer not to play Ratshaker twice. 
Even if you're not pursuing the easy platinum trophy, I'd suggest that the game's low price and eerie atmosphere make Ratshaker a worthwhile choice for any horror fan who appreciates the unusual. It's currently available on PS5 and Windows PCs, with plans for release on additional platforms later this summer. Go ahead, shake that rat.

The Remedy Connected Universe is expanding at a rapid pace these days, and its latest installment is a Control spin-off called FBC: Firebreak. In this cooperative shooter, players venture back into the strange and eerie Oldest House of the Federal Bureau of Control, accompanied by up to two friends. Read More: Alan Wake Devs Plan A Big Relaunch For Failing Co-Op Flop Unfortunately, the game hasn’t become the success that many had hoped for. Developer Remedy is working hard on revamping the co-op shooter. However, you can still play it if you wish. Let’s delve into all the essential details you need to know if you’re considering playing it in the summer of 2025. <h2>What don’t folks like about FBC: Firebreak?</h2> Firebreak has unfortunately not lived up to the expectations of critics or players. Common complaints include a “lifeless” gameplay experience and an overabundance of chaos and monotony. It’s a disappointing start for a game set in such an intriguing environment with a promising concept.

<h2>How many people are playing right now?</h2> While you might find ways to entertain yourself in Firebreak, it’s evident that most people aren’t doing so. At this moment, SteamDB reports a player count in the low teens, with an all-time peak of 1,992 players. These numbers are not encouraging for the PC platform, to say the least. <h2>Does FBC: Firebreak have crossplay support?</h2> The brief answer is yes, FBC: Firebreak does include crossplay support. Players can team up across different platforms by sharing a party code. So, if you’re a console enthusiast with friends who prefer playing on PC, or vice versa, you can join forces for some first-person shooting action in either duos or trios. <figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2000618048" class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_2000618048"><img alt="An FBC agent stands in a multiplayer lobby." class="size-full wp-image-2000618048 cursor-pointer" decoding="async" height="1080" sizes="(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw - 2rem), (max-width: 1258px) calc((100vw - 3.68rem) * 2 / 3), 800px" src="https://asserts.gameseeks.com/icon/283481857222247865.jpg" width="1920"/><figcaption class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-2000618048">© Screenshot: Remedy</figcaption></figure> <h2>Does FBC: Firebreak have cross-progression support?</h2> The good news concludes with crossplay, unfortunately. FBC: Firebreak does not support cross-progression at launch. Nevertheless, this doesn’t mean the game won’t incorporate cross-progression in the future.

Speaking to MP1ST, community manager Julian Fondum addressed a question about cross-progression, stating, “Not at launch. Maybe way down the line. It’s a maybe. A lot of things we’re doing on the back end [are] definitely built in the way that we can do a bunch of things down the line when we have more resources and so on.” That sounds promising to me! However, as with any feature that hasn’t been officially confirmed yet, it’s best not to get too hopeful. I suspect there are numerous elements on the game’s roadmap that Remedy considers more critical for the game at this stage. If you’re a fan of the Remedy Connected Universe and are curious to see what the excitement is all about, even if the game didn’t make a strong impression at launch, FBC: Firebreak is available now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S/X, and Windows PCs.

Lies of P: Overture is the highly anticipated DLC for the 2023 Pinocchio-themed soulslike game, Lies of P. Though it serves as a prequel, players will still need the base game to fully engage with this exhilarating additional campaign. Unlike some brief and straightforward DLCs, this one offers a significant amount of content to explore, including expansive new levels, numerous fresh weapons, formidable bosses, and further story progression. How much time will it take to experience it all, and what can you anticipate in this new chapter? Let's delve into it. <h2>How many new weapons are in Lies of P: Overture?</h2> Lies of P: Overture introduces 10 new weapons, including the remarkable Royal Horn Bow. Within the DLC, you can expect to acquire these armaments: <ul> <li aria-level="1">Arche’s Guardian (Sword)</li> <li aria-level="1">Death’s Talons (Sword)</li> <li aria-level="1">La Vendetta (Blunt)</li> <li aria-level="1">Lorenzini’s Bolt (Greatsword)</li> <li aria-level="1">Maniac’s Pinwheel (Greatsword)</li> <li aria-level="1">Monad’s Rose Sword (Sword)</li> <li aria-level="1">Pale Knight (Greatsword)</li> <li aria-level="1">Puppet of the Future’s Welder (Greatsword)</li> <li aria-level="1">Royal Horn Bow (Dagger*)</li> <li aria-level="1">Silent Evangelist’s Mace (Large Blunt)</li> </ul> *Though primarily a ranged weapon, the Royal Horn Bow is categorized as a Dagger blade type. <h2>How many new bosses are in Overture?</h2> The DLC for Lies of P introduces eight new bosses for you to conquer. These include: <ul> <li aria-level="1">Tyrannical Predator</li> <li aria-level="1">Markiona, Puppeteer of Death</li> <li aria-level="1">Veronique, Leader of the Sweepers</li> <li aria-level="1">Two-faced Overseer</li> <li aria-level="1">Premetamorphic Green Hunter</li> <li aria-level="1">Anguished Guardian</li> <li aria-level="1">Lumacchio, Leader of the Bastards</li> <li aria-level="1">Arlecchino, the Blood Artist</li> </ul> <h2>How long does it take to beat Lies of P: Overture DLC?</h2> Lies of P: Overture is downloadable content that enriches the base game experience, so it isn't expected to last as long as the main campaign. Nonetheless, there's plenty to explore as you navigate through a past version of the world.

Seasoned players who are well-acquainted with the base game should be able to complete the Overture DLC and uncover all of its secrets in approximately 12-15 hours. There's much to do, but familiarity with the game's mechanics should assist returning players in comfortably tackling the challenges that await. For those less experienced with Lies of P, or perhaps those who have taken an extended break and need to reacquaint themselves with the game's mechanics, a bit more time may be necessary to thoroughly explore every aspect of this expansive DLC. Even then, most players should manage to complete it in under 20 hours. Of course, you can make things a bit easier by utilizing the new difficulty modes the game offers. You now have the option to adjust the difficulty to make it either easier or more challenging if you find yourself overwhelmed or not challenged enough. If everything feels just right, you can simply keep it set to “Legendary Stalker,” which is the default difficulty.

If you're eager to immerse yourself once again in this dark and enigmatic role-playing world, you would be making an excellent choice. Lies of P: Overture is an exciting prequel packed with some of the game's coolest weapons and adversaries, and it significantly expands the world and lore that dedicated fans have come to cherish. Lies of P: Overture is available now on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Windows PCs. And once again, yes, you’ll need to own the base game to play it!

Birdo is among the key characters you can unlock in Mario Kart World. Despite being a familiar face in the Super Mario spin-offs since the Gamecube era, it's somewhat unexpected that she isn't part of the initial lineup. However, considering other beloved characters like Donkey Kong and Daisy also need to be unlocked, it's not entirely shocking. Fortunately, bringing Birdo into your team requires minimal effort: just complete four brief races and she'll be yours! Here’s the essential information to help you add this unique character to your roster. <h2>The best karts for Birdo</h2> Reel Racer is often considered an excellent choice for Birdo, much like it is for many other characters. However, you might also want to experiment with the Biddybuggy, which offers enhanced acceleration and handling compared to the Reel Racer. <h2>How to Unlock Birdo</h2> <figure aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2000617863" class="wp-caption alignnone" id="attachment_2000617863"><img alt="Birdo looks behind her while racing forward.

Interestingly, even if you don't aim to unlock her, she will automatically join your roster once you finish the Banana Cup. Your placement in the races is irrelevant; whether you win every race or never climb higher than 24th place, Birdo will become part of your crew after the Grand Prix concludes.

Birdo shares the middleweight category with Yoshi, making her a well-balanced character. She doesn't particularly excel in any one area, but she doesn't fall short in any either. <h2>All Outfits for Birdo in Mario Kart World</h2> At launch, Birdo has two outfits available. While this might seem limited, it's worth noting that Donkey Kong received an even shorter end of the stick with just a single outfit. To unlock these outfits, you'll need to collect the following foods: <ul> <li aria-level="1">Pro racer: pancakes, donut, cake, burger, fruit salad, curry, ice cream</li> <li aria-level="1">Vacation: takoyaki, sushi, pizza, kebab, naan, fish and chips, popcorn</li> </ul> Venture into the open world in free roam, or explore the Mushroom Kingdom in modes like Knockout Tour. This will give you access to a variety of foods, boosting your chances of finding what you need to unlock these costumes. Soon enough, you'll acquire what you need and expand Birdo’s wardrobe with these outfits! <hr/> Mario Kart World is currently available on the Nintendo Switch 2.
