Nintendo will be removing its gacha elements (essentially randomised in-game items or cosmetics for real money) from its mobile racing spin-off Mario Kart Tour. While microtransactions will still be present, players will be able to purchase items directly instead of having to blindly pump money into the game to receive randomised goodies. This was confirmed via the official Twitter account for the game, with the update set to arrive October 4.Additionally, Battle Mode will also be coming to the Mario Kart Tour in a late September update, which is a side mode that’s present in all of the mainline titles that shifts the focus away from racing.The title released back in September 2019, and is currently the latest release in the Mario Kart franchise.

Old School Runescape update adds another challenge mode to the game, this time in the form of speedrunning. To be specific, the speedrunning pertains to the game’s Quests, which “takes place on members-only worlds with separate save files”.A blog post on the Old School Runescape website explains that “upon logging on to a Speedrunning world, you’ll be prompted to select the quest you’d like to run.” Once a quest has been selected, “the game will automatically adjust your stats to the recommended levels for the quest you’ve chosen, as well as providing all the relevant items.”Although players don’t have to be constantly engaged in a speedrun when in one of these worlds, XP can’t be earned in them, so skills can’t be leveled up. However, participating in speedruns will provide players with “reward points which will transfer across to your main account in the normal game mode.” These reward points will scale depending on how efficiently a player finishes a quest, with a maximum of 320 points being available from a single quest.The speedrunning worlds are clearly aimed at players who are already experienced with Old School Runescape and looking for a change, as they provide no tutorial or trading, with aspects such as PvP and minigames including Castle Wars and Soul Wars being disabled.As with any good speedrunning mode, statistics such as the current time during a speedrun, personal best time, and global best time will all be viewable, as well as the times needed for each of the rewards.The update will launch with five early game quests – Cook’s Assistant, Ernest the Chicken, Demon Slayer, Vampyre Slayer, and Dragon Slayer 1.

Diablo Immortal is causing randomly reduced XP rewards. The bug reduces XP earned from slaying enemies at random, making the grind for players more frustrating.

Diablo Immortal player seems to have lost access to player vs player (PvP) game modes in the title after spending over £80,000 ($100,000) in the free-to-play role-playing game.YouTuber and streamer jtisallbusiness has claimed that after spending a massive amount of money on upgrading their character, they’re unable to gain access to any PvP games.They said that they spent between “48 to 72 hours” queueing for a battlegrounds match, but every attempt to do so resulted in them being unable to find a game (via PCGamesN).In a recent YouTube video, the streamer explained they are considering attempting a refund of their total spending or calling in lawyers to help with the situation.“I can’t do things that I spent money on this character to do, and I have no time frame of when things are going to actually be fixed, or even know if things are going to be fixed because I am the only player in the entire world with this problem,” they said.Jtisallbusiness said that they have tried contracting Blizzard through the official forums and on Twitter, but only received a reply saying it was “aware of the issue.”The content creator and their clan also recently won the Rite of Exile battle on their server and are being repeatedly prompted to “prepare to defend their reign” by playing battlegrounds, but jtisallbusiness is unable to do so.Their clan is also expected to defend its reign on their server, but when jtisallbusiness travels to the Rite of Exile entrance to register the clan, they can’t join or schedule a PvP match.

Diablo Immortal has been met with further criticism from the community, this time regarding the game’s Hungering Moon event. The event, which runs from July 15-17, rewards players with The Moon’s Favour after completing all seven of the tasks included.

Konami has managed to make an exclusivity deal with Italian football club Inter Milan for eFootball. This information came via a press release that stated that the club would only be appearing in eFootball from July 2024 and “no other video game.” Additionally, a post on the Inter Milan website notes that starting with the 2022/2023 sports season, the eFootball logo “will appear on the back of the men’s, women’s and youth teams first team training kit, as well as on the pre-match kit”.This means that key competitor FIFA (which will be changing its branding to EA Sports FC following the release of this year’s title) will need to come up with a fake name for the club. This isn’t the first time EA has had to make this pivot, renaming Juventus to Piemonte Calcio following Konami’s exclusivity claim on that club.Konami itself has needed to use fake names for certain clubs in previous Pro Evolution Soccer games and eFootball, with Manchester City being dubbed Manchester B in their current football game amongst others.Inter Milan will be making its debut in eFootball with the release of the 2.0.0 update for the game.The free-to-play Pro Evolution Soccer successor was originally released on September 30 last year and was met with immediate backlash.

While he has said the game is changing organically and he doesn’t know exactly where it will end up, the base loop of the game appears to be a kind of fantastical chocolate shop management simulator.
