The former is relatively common, while the latter is rarer and more powerful.
Legendary Aspects are modifiers that can improve the potential of the player’s character and make it more powerful. It can transform Rare items into Legendary items. It has extremely high practicality, offensive and defensive properties.
Generally speaking, it can also be divided into class-specific and universal to all classes. For example, Aspect of Creeping Death is universal to all classes. Currently, the developers have modified these two resources and will release them in S8: Belial’s Return. $1 is essential to quickly acquire these important resources starting in Season 8, so you can accumulate some gold now to enhance your builds with these Unique Items and Legendary Aspects in the new season and maximize the potential of your class.

As 2nd anniversary of Honkai Star Rail approaches, players' attention is subtly switching between 3.2 Amphoreus campaign update and the preview information of 3.3. After seeing the gameplay kit of Hyacine leaked in Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.3, I was very curious - can this upcoming 5-star Wind Healer really change the current healing pattern of Luocha, Lingsha, and Huohuo?
The leak details Hyacine' s active abilities, her passive traces, her eidolons, etc. If the leaked information is accurate and has not changed after the release of Version 3.3, players can prepare for all these equipment in advance and pre-acquire them.
Version 3.3 LeaksAs an important NPC in Amphoreus plot line, Hyacine has aroused speculation since her debut due to her unique memosprite mechanism. Now HoYoverse has officially confirmed through official dynamics that this Remembrance Character will be launched as a playable character in May, and the equally popular Cipher will also be launched at the same time.
According to the current leaked information, we can clearly know the fact that players will consume numerous $1 in version 3.3, which may trigger a new round of resource hoarding craze.
Although version 3.2 has occupied the center of the topic with Castorice, Anaxa and Amphoreus campaign updates, with this leak of news, many players have set their sights on the more strategically profound version 3.3. According to the latest capture records of Honey Hunter World database, Hyacine's skill set presents an amazing composite healing characteristic, and its mechanism design around the dual core of Max HP & SPD may bring revolutionary changes to tactical system of Honkai Star Rail.
Hyacine Complete KitAccording to leaked information, Hyacine's Complete Kit contains three disruptive mechanisms:
Dynamic HP conversion system: Normal attacks directly link the percentage of maximum HP to maintain the output threat while stacking survival attributes. Memosprite Ica: This permanent summons inherits 50% of Hyacine's maximum HP. It can not only achieve full automatic endurance through out-of-turn healing, but also has a unique gain stacking mechanism. Petrichoric Clear Skies state: Three-turn Petrichoric Clear Skies state triggered by using Ultimate, at which time Hyacine will heal all team characters. The amount of healing is a certain percentage of her own maximum HP plus a fixed value.When Hyacine is in Petrichoric Clear Skies state, Ica will take action immediately after Hyacine uses a skill. When Ica triggers Talent's healing effect, it will restore additional HP to friendly targets. This powerful healing power can make the team worry-free, which makes Hyacine a good choice for players to build a team.
It is particularly worth noting that Ica is a non-turn-based action - this memosprite that does not appear on the action bar can trigger healing after any friendly unit acts. This kind of detachment from the traditional restriction mechanism completely breaks the tactical framework of the existing healing role. When paired with new Relic set Warrior Goddess of Daythunder, Ica's Gentle Rain effect triggered each round can provide an additional 15% team crit damage. Hyacine's design that deeply binds survival and output gain makes Hyacine's strategic value far beyond traditional healers.
Ideal BuildThe exclusive Relic Daybreak Thunder Valkyrie mentioned in the leaked intelligence is clearly designed to target Hyacine's mechanical pain points:
2-piece: It can increase the player's SPD by 60%, which also directly relieves the pressure of Hyacine build. 4-piece: When the treatment is triggered, it gains Gentle Rain state, providing an additional 6% SPD and 15% team critical damage.This set of Relics perfectly meets Hyacine's need for SPD and also forms a perfect closed loop with her own abilities. This makes it possible for her to become the most powerful healing profession and one of the characters with best sustain in Honkai Star Rail.
In terms of lineup matching, the synergy between Hyacine and Tribbie is particularly prominent - Tribbie can increase its own maximum HP according to the total maximum HP of its allies, so HP limit increase provided by Hyacine can be converted into double benefits, and this mechanism linkage may give birth to new tactics.
However, its strict build requirements may also become a problem - in order to exert the full strength, players need to obtain Relic and Ornament pieces with SPD as the sub-stat to meet her needs for SPD. This may require players to consume a lot of game resources to achieve. This high investment and high return feature may make Hyacine a good helper for krypton gold players. Civilian players may need to wait a little for the subsequent mechanism.
In any case, for players who lack a talented healer, Hyacine will be the best choice, and we look forward to her arrival bringing us more surprises!
For the first time since the release of Diablo 4, the developer released new game content several months in advance. In order to let players know the progress of the game in advance, it even revealed the theme of the season in 2026.
Diablo 4 announced a roadmap for 2025, which mainly lists seasonal content and some permanent content that changes with the game.
For the sake of the completeness of the roadmap, the roadmap announced by the developer first lists Diablo 4 season 7, focusing on witchcraft powers, occult gems and other content. It is clear that season 8 will start in April and last for three months.
Among them, the most anticipated Belial will return to Diablo 4. Season 9 will last from July to September, focusing on adding horadric powers, a new earnable pet, and dungeon escalation. Season 10 begins in September and ends in December. The focus of this season is on new chaos powers and an update for Infernal Hordes.
The specific content is as follows:
Diablo 4 Season 8 will focus on boss battles to increase the difficulty of the game. Because some players previously thought that the progress of the game in Season 7 was too fast, it was not enough for players to experience the pleasure of the game immersively.
So in Season 8, the developer said that in order to slow down the progress of the game and solve the problems mentioned by players, the difficulty of monsters and the difficulty of the game will be increased.
The main new boss powers in Season 8 are Apparition Incursion activity and earnable feline pet, and the new New Lair bosses are Belial, Urivar, and Harbinger.
At the same time, the battle pass will also be significantly transformed, because the previous pass is too old and cannot meet the needs of current players. Perhaps Diablo 4 will refer to and learn from open-ended battle pass system of Call of Duty to make the pass more up to date.
The name of the season starting in July is called Sins of the Horadrim. The main storyline of Diablo revolves around Horadrim, so the theme of this season is of great significance. According to a roadmap provided by the developer, the main quarterly content of Season 9 is Horadric powers, Dungeon escalation, earnable pet, Permanent additions, New Nightmare Dungeons activities, Console keyboard and mouse support.
Season 10 will introduce Infernal Chaos, which also includes seasonal powers, quests and rewards, but the key point is that the rewards have increased, and players can get more $1 and other rewards. These reflect that the developers have not forgotten their original intentions. It also includes specific content such as Chaos powers, Infernal Hordes, updates, and earnable pet.
The last part of the roadmap is the content for 2026, which mainly includes New expansion and New ranking system, New ranking system, among which the most eye-catching is the launch of the leaderboard. Games often have a competitive nature, and the leaderboard can greatly increase the interest of players and satisfy the psychological pursuit of victory.
Although the form of the leaderboard has not been specifically announced, there may be many rewards for players who are at the top of the leaderboard.
The above is about the content that will be updated in the next few seasons of Diablo 4. I wonder if there is any part that you are interested in?
The acclaimed Final Fantasy XIV has always been accustomed to incorporating and absorbing content from other Final Fantasy games, so it is not surprising that we will continue to see the series’ past in FFXIV.
In a recent interview, the game’s lead composer Masayoshi Soken said that the current MMORPG field is still lacking a work that truly carries the soul of Final Fantasy. The talented composer who has won numerous awards has a desire to pay tribute to the classic work Final Fantasy VIII. However, Soken also said that whether FF14 will add more Final Fantasy references later will depend on the specific situation.
Masayoshi SokenBack in 2010, the first version of FFXIV 1.0 almost ruined the entire IP due to its disastrous performance. It was during this crisis that Soken was appointed as the lead composer and set the emotional tone for A Realm Reborn with epic tracks. After fourteen years of hard work, he not only created legendary songs such as Close In the Distance and Tomorrow and Tomorrow for FFXIV, but also demonstrated his cross-border strength in Final Fantasy XVI. And his fusion of symphony and electronic rock won him high praise from industry professionals.
Interestingly, although FFXIV main music library already contains hundreds of adapted songs from the Final Fantasy series, Soken still has a special liking for FFVIII, and said that he felt very sorry that Eorzea continent has not yet fully demonstrated the spiritual heritage of FF8. As soon as this remark came out, it immediately triggered a hot post on Reddit - after all, this music giant has always been known for his accurate quotations, and every time the classic melody reappears, it can trigger the collective memory of players.
FFXIV DawntrailIt is interesting that in Dawntrail, players can clearly see the developer’s tribute to Final Fantasy 9. Perhaps this practice of favoring one over the other is the deep motivation for Soken’s voice this time.
In March, FFXIV released Patch 7.2. This means we are coming to the end of Dawntrail and can welcome the next expansion. It will be a great opportunity to showcase other game content and reimagine its world and characters - it is a good opportunity to include FF8 in it.
Classic ImplantationIn this case, why doesn’t FF14 directly introduce FF8 content on a large scale? This is because the resurrection of each classic element requires a narrative fulcrum. This also happens to reveal the key to FFXIV’s success - unlike the theme-park design that simply piles up feelings, the developer always adheres to the principle of world view compatibility. Every classic reappearance is a dual satisfaction of narrative logic and player emotion.
In addition, the implantation of classic content is often accompanied by fluctuations in the economic system. According to experience, this kind of sentiment-driven economic cycle is quite amazing. In the month that Gunbreaker class was launched, the total amount of $1 in circulation in the in-game weapons market grew incredibly, which also indirectly confirmed the leverage that the addition of some classic characters has on the virtual economy.
But I think now is the best time to integrate FF8 into FF14. Because now we need a new long-term villain to drive the story further. This can’t help but remind us of FF8’s primary antagonist - Ultimecia, who is the first female main villain to appear in the Final Fantasy series.
As a sorceress from the future, her strength should not be underestimated. She tried to make herself a living god. Although her plan did not succeed in the end, she still caused a lot of trouble for players in Final Fantasy 8, and thus left a very deep impression on players.
Interestingly, her ability to travel through time and space is just right for the plot of FFXIV, and we look forward to her joining as a new villain.
All in all, there are still many opportunities for Final Fantasy 14 to integrate with other Final Fantasy games. With new version confirmed to explore new continents, I hope Soken can get his wish. Maybe the legacy of FF8 will really be reborn in FF14 in the future.
World of Warcraft will remove Guild Name Change service from Shop on April 22, 2025. This is not only a simple function migration but also a milestone event in the systematic reform of WoW's paid system. This may also indicate that Patch 11.1.5 will also be released together with Guild Name Change function. Players may not have to wait long to experience the new content of The War Within Expansion this spring!
Guild ServicesRecently, WOW The War Within11.1.5 patch landed in the public beta Public Test Realm, allowing fans to see the upcoming update with their own eyes. This transformation of Guild Name Change continues the previous trend - in July 2024, WOW withdrew Guild Realm Transfer and Guild Faction Transfer services from the in-game store. When the guild name change is removed from both Battle.net and the in-game store, it means that World of Warcraft will no longer provide paid guild services. This change also marks that the guild management function of WOW is gradually returning to the main game.
According to current information, Guild Name Change function is integrated into Guild Master interface of Major Cities. And Guild Name Changes must meet the following conditions:、
Applicants must have Guild Master permissions. The guild bank must hold 200,000 Gold and cannot bind funds. The new name must pass sensitive word filtering and uniqueness verification.In addition, it has also attracted widespread attention. Its 200,000 $1 pricing strategy. Referring to the current market average price of WoW Token, the new pricing reduces the cost compared to cash. This design forms a connection with the Winds of Mysterious Fortune experience buff added in the 11.1.5 patch - the event provides experience bonuses and generous rewards, which can significantly improve the efficiency of players' gold acquisition. WoW The War Within is now obviously guiding players to obtain gold for trading mainly through game behavior.
However, these clues also show that The War Within is building a triangular circulation system of gold coins, game content, and social capital. Compared with other MMO games, it chooses a more direct way to make changes, which can also be said to be an immense challenge.
Patch 11.1.5Furthermore, April 22 is not only the time when WOW brings us Guild Name Change, but it is also very likely to be the launch date of Patch 11.1.5. The following are some key content updates included in this patch.
Horrific VisionsN'Zoth's corruption is about to return, please return to Stormwind and Orgrimmar to accept the challenge. Remember to keep your sanity and be careful not to fail!
Battle ModeHorrific Visions will be able to support single-player or Group Queue battle modes. However, for players who want to form a team but do not have suitable teammates, you can invite the healer Construct of Soridormi as an NPC companion, who can be unaffected by sanity. This update also optimizes him to a certain extent to improve the player's gaming experience.
Horrific Vision MasksAs expected, the Horrific Vision Masks are also returning, including Mask of the Pained, Mask of Dark Imagination, Mask of the Long Night, Mask of the Burned Bridge, and Mask of the Daredevil. In addition, there are three new masks waiting to be discovered this time! You can activate higher difficulties and get more Heroic difficulty items that are more suitable for you.
New CurrencyPatch 11.1.5 brings a new currency to Horrific Vision - Displaced Corrupted Mementos currency. Players can use it at vendors in exchange for previously Displaced Corrupted Mementos. It can also be exchanged for new rewards in this Horrific Visions, including mounts, toys, transmogs, and even weapon enchantments.
Another important point of this update is that the developers decided to move Corrupted Weapon enchants to Helmet slot, so that all classes can use it.
Dastardly DuosPlayers have access to three hubs for Dastardly Duos, located in Stormwind, Orgrimmar, and Dornogal. While Vinnie Sweets hosts the show, players can join in to fight animatronic versions of past bosses, earn power-ups, and fight for higher and higher scores. You and your team will need to fight two or more bosses, earning high scores by killing, dealing damage, and more. There are also specific achievements waiting to be unlocked that provide additional gameplay effects!
Nightfall ActivityAfter defeating Queen Ansurek, players will join the new faction Flame’s Radiance to defend Arathi from the Sureki army. It is composed of veterans Thaed Pyremaker and Mylton Wyldbraun.
The faction will launch new quests and activities during Hallowfall and Azj-Kahet to earn Renown and additional rewards. The Flame’s Radiance faction will offer ten Renown levels, and new rewards will be unlocked as you rank up. Including - new armor sets, Flame’s Radiance Tabard, weapons, and more.
All in all, Remove Guild Service the shop reflects WOW The War Within return to the nature of MMO games. And the upcoming Patch 11.1.5 will bring us a lot of fresh surprises. It won’t be long before players can see the exact time of the official release.
Call of Duty is a classic shooting game. Every year, the developer will add many new features, and naturally many features will be abandoned. However, people are always nostalgic. Some features being abandoned will directly lead to the departure of old players, and old players are the driving force for the continuous update of the game.
If the classic features of the past can return, it may save the current sluggish market of Call of Duty.
Pick 10 Class System: Classic Loadout System From Black Ops 2This system is an indispensable part of the creation of a profession function in this series of games. Using this system, players can choose ten components according to their own needs, giving full play to the autonomy of players, so that players can choose their own equipment according to their actual situation and preferences, and enhance the free will of players.
Outbreak From Black Ops Cold WarThis particular feature is very different from the traditional zombie mode. The difficulty will increase according to the player comes to different areas. Of course, the player can also choose to retreat, and even get a lot of gifts.
With a vast game area and unique boss battles, this feature has gained numerous loyal fans a long time ago, so many old players are looking forward to the return of this feature.
Grief & Turned From Black Ops 2This is also a zombie game. Both modes are very interesting. Grief retains a lot of classic turn-based zombie gameplay, while Turned has a certain degree of novelty.
In simple terms, there are four players, three of whom play as zombies and one plays as a human. The human needs to kill the zombies, and as the zombies are killed, the weapons used by the human will also change. If you want to become more skilled, you can also practise in $1.
For zombies, they need to kill humans to obtain human identity. Every time they kill a zombie, they will get corresponding points, and the person with the highest points wins.
Emblem Editor From Black Ops 2From a single game mode to players can customize their appearance, Emblem Editor is finally produced. This is an important feature of the series of games. This special tool allows players to design their own emblems, and these emblems will appear on the player’s profile and be displayed at different stages of the game.
This to some extent increases the player’s sense of honor and identity, is conducive to the establishment of a harmonious community atmosphere, and is also conducive to players building their own emblem empire, so that they have a sense of construction and participation in the game.
Paint Shop From Black Ops 3The function of Paint Shop is similar to Emblem Editor mentioned above, but the difference is that this function is aimed at the personalization of weapons. Although it is a very niche function, some players may have higher requirements for the appearance of weapons. This function can meet the needs of these players.
And this supplementary design cannot be replaced by the later added stickers and decals, and has a special artistic quality.
DMZ From Warzone 2.0This function is not as prominent as other functions, but it is also very special. It is an evacuation shooting experience, and this mode provides players with a very high degree of freedom.
If the player successfully evacuates safely, he can store the loot he obtained, but if he fails, all the equipment will disappear. This function has attracted numerous niche players because it is simple to operate and has a certain degree of challenge.
We all know that the recent market conditions of Call of Duty are not good. Whether these expected functions can save it, we cannot predict, but what is certain is that it will attract many old players to return, and at the same time attract a wave of new players to join, which can at least bring a glimmer of hope to the sluggish Call of Duty game market.
Everyone must be familiar with the casual game Stardew Valley. You will play as a company employee in the game, and inherit your grandfather’s farm by chance. From then on, you will stay away from the workplace life and start a leisure journey.
This independent game plays an important role in the field of life simulation and farm games. You can explore this complete world in the game, you can communicate with others, and grow a lot of crops. It is very playable.
Although the world in this game looks peaceful and happy on the surface, there are many unusual secrets hidden around the valley and Pelican Town, and you can explore those hidden secrets.
Recently, a series of a new quality of life changes were made in its 1.6 update. For example, many $1 were added: large boxes, water bowls that can move pets, and other minor adjustments, all of which make your exploration in the game easier.
Flowers Wake Up Too Much Inventory SpaceHowever, the only flaw is that it ignores an improvement in quality of life: the unreasonable, excessive inventory space occupied by flowers.
As you’ve probably learned from experience, different colored flowers take up their own designated inventory slots, which is bad news for us players. Your inventory will fill up quickly, and it will be more difficult to manage your harvest.
Like most games, Stardew Valley has a relatively limited inventory space, so you’ll need to manage that space as you collect crops and other Stardew Valley Items around town.
With the clever addition of large chests, you actually have plenty of space to store Stardew Valley Items most of the time. However, flowers take up a lot of inventory, which can make inventory management a big fuss.
And different varieties and colors have their own inventory slots. That adds up to a staggering amount of inventory.
When it comes to harvest time in Stardew Valley, especially in the spring and summer, the biggest problem you face is picking and storing all the different colors of flowers.
Fairy rose, blue jazz, and summer spangle each have six unique color variations, while poppies have three and tulips have five different hues. In other words, most flowers you harvest will take up to six inventory slots, which is quite a lot.
How To Improve Inventory Management?In fact, Stardew Valley could avoid this annoyance by slightly revising the way flowers are stored and adding some new quality of life features to the game.
Generally speaking, the number of items you can store in one inventory slot is pretty lenient. Stone, wood, and almost all Stardew Valley Items in the game can be stacked up to 999 in one inventory slot.
And being able to carry so many things with you makes it easier to complete tasks, but it also makes the fact that some items can’t be stacked more obvious.
The best way to solve the problem of flowers taking up so much inventory space when harvested is to have the flowers category only take up one slot. And if the small drop-down menu in the inventory can have color options, you can choose the specific color you need.
If Stardew Valley made this slight change, it would greatly reduce your pain of picking and storing flowers and ease your inventory management. Hopefully, it will be as we wish.
As a fan of Pokemon Go, I recently heard some very bad news: Niantic announced that it had sold its gaming division to Scopely, which is part of the Saudi investment fund.
And Scopely acquired Pokemon Go for $3.5 billion. But I don’t have a good impression of the developer, so I am worried about the prospects of Pokemon Go.
In fact, before the outbreak, the thriving player community was all over the world. However, after the outbreak, everyone was forced to stay indoors. Since then, Pokemon Go has been on a downward trend.
As its fans, this situation is something we don’t want to see. And what’s more frustrating is that the game has changed a lot.
Paid TicketsPaid tickets have long been a part of Pokemon Go, and I don’t dislike them. Although this is a free game, the developers also need to make money to keep the game running and developing.
And we always find ways to play every event for free. Of course, there will always be some loyal fans who are willing to spend money to get more rewards and game experience.
However, the new changes in the game annoy me. As everyone knows, $1 are very important in the game, which you can get by battling in gyms or completing quests. But getting 50 coins a day is a big deal because it is not easy to get.
Coins can be used to trade premium tickets for any event of your choice, but now you can’t use coins to trade event passes. Forcing us to trade back with real money greatly undermines the motivation of free game players like us to continue working hard and reduces our enthusiasm for participating in the game.
It is undeniable that the new changes in Pokemon Go reflect predatory and exploitative nature, trying to squeeze as much cash as possible from us players.
AcquiredAnd the worse news is that Pokemon Go was acquired by Scopely. I guess everyone has seen the true face of Scopely. It is profit-oriented, such as ads that can be skipped for a fee and premium items sold directly.
The end of being acquired by it is foreseeable that Pokemon Go will become a game of paid entertainment. I can imagine that if you spend enough money, you’ll get Legendaries easily, and Master Balls will be readily available. But that takes away from the fun of struggling in the game.
Will the future of Pokemon Go get worse? Let’s wait and see.
I believe that some players who have visited IGGM know that IGGM is an online game store with many years of trading experience and has always been known for its cheap products, high-quality services and safe shopping environment. With their own advantages, they have won the trust of many players in recent years and become one of the best trading platforms, but this has also attracted the jealousy and framing of many peers.
Recently, GameBoost published a discussion article on whether the shopping environment of IGGM is safe. Although every website needs to respect and listen to the objective opinions of all users and peers in order to improve its service quality, unfortunately, GameBoost does not want to do so. This is a completely premeditated frame-up. They want to erase all the efforts of IGGM by generalizing.
GameBoost’s False Accusations Against Almost All PeersFirst of all, GameBoost's false accusations against IGGM are not an isolated case. He almost bombarded all competitors in the same industry. Without exception, GameBoost unilaterally intercepted some of the few negative Trustpilot reviews of these websites to prove that these peer websites are extremely bad. They tried to cover up the positive experience of some real users with someone-sided comments, and their conspiracy was too obvious.
To be honest, there is almost no website that can run without any mistakes, and the very few situations that bring customers a not-so-good shopping experience are also extremely uncontrollable. But a mature game store should always take good repair measures after negative situations occur. IGGM does the same. They always ensure that their service quality is qualified and do not make any mistakes. More importantly, if there are any unpredictable situations that cause them to delay the delivery of the products bought by customers or other problems, there are professional customer service staff who will continue to follow up and ensure that the most perfect solution is provided to all customers. Not only the caring pre-sales service but also the appropriate after-sales problem solution is also provided by IGGM for every user.
Therefore, it is ridiculous for GameBoost to generalize and prove that IGGM’s service and shopping environment are risky based on only these few negative comments. I think anyone with a good understanding can see through their illogical accusations.
Negative Reviews Of GameBoost Itself Are EndlessWhat’s even more ridiculous is that GameBoost displays all the five-star reviews on their homepage to attract customers to place orders, but turns a blind eye to the negative reviews in their Trustpilot reviews. Almost every day, customers who have shopped on their website complain that this is a scam with their terrible service!
GameBoost customers generally report that the accounts they bought there are fake and will expire in a few days, which is completely contrary to their own claims of fast and secure transactions, and they have no intention of helping users solve problems, and will only use endless robot customer service to perfunctory you. So if you want to buy products here, you must think twice before you act. After all, you don’t want to lose your hard-earned money and your account security is threatened.
In addition, the shopping environment in GameBoost is also questionable. Many users often report that they often have many redundant steps in the shopping process, and users are required to provide very detailed private information, even including your ID card and credit card information. If you don’t cooperate with their requirements, they will refuse to deliver the product to you. These inexplicable requirements make many users question the legitimacy of their request for information and whether the entire shopping environment is safe.
Not to mention that many players reported that they had not received their products within a few days after payment, and GameBoost did not respond to this. There were also many cases where the bought accounts were banned after a few days and the products could not be refunded.
The emergence of these problems can only show that GameBoost’s own service has a big loophole. They don’t want to solve the problem, but only want to solve the user who raised the problem. This is really ridiculous. What’s more, while they use the so-called real five-star reviews to cover up their internal false prosperity, they also use one-sided negative reviews to falsely accuse almost all competitors in the same industry. It can be seen that their remarks are not credible at all!
Final Conclusion: A Scam Created By GameBoost!Considering that GameBoost’s false accusations against IGGM and the entire industry are completely contradictory to their own negative comments, their remarks are completely unreliable. This is completely a low-level means for them to discredit IGGM and divert traffic for themselves. As a website that is conscientious and respects customers and opponents, IGGM expressed disdain for such behavior.
For all customers, would you rather believe a website full of lies and framing others to attract attention, or a store that has been deeply involved in the game product trading industry for many years and is committed to providing the best service to all users? I believe that all users have their own evaluations. In any case, as a mature market, IGGM said that they will always adhere to the principle of user-oriented, maintain their own services and advantages, and always provide the best shopping experience for all customers!
At the intersection of the old and new years, FC 25 has recently launched a number of promotions to provide you with a better gaming experience. But among all EA FC 25 promotions, TOTY is undoubtedly the grandest and most popular.
This event is dedicated to rating all playable FUT 25 players in a year and selecting the best performing football players, so that you can use your FIFA 25 Coins in the future game to exchange for players that are both suitable for your game style and strong enough to help you win the game as much as possible.
Based on this, we will introduce you to how to participate in the promotion and a list of some nominated players.
What Is FC 25 TOTY?As the biggest annual promotion of EA Sports FC 25, the team of the year (TOTY) aims to select the most influential and outstanding players in the game based on ratings and statistics, allowing them to shine and more prominently enter your player shortlist.
TOTY mechanics are the same as in previous versions of the game, where you can vote for 11 outstanding players from both the men’s and women’s teams. These selected players can then be included in the game as TOTY Player Items, giving them their own FC 25 commemorative value.
FC 25 TOTY ScheduleThe game is expected to release attackers and TOTY Icons Team 1 on Friday, January 17, 2025. And the following contents will be announced in sequence gradually:
January 19, 2025: TOTY midfielders. January 21, 2025: TOTY defenders and goalkeepers, TOTY Icons Team 2. January 23, 2025: TOTY release.Other more specific schedules are not yet known, but the overall schedule should be similar to that of FC 24, so you can make FC 25 TOTY arrangements in advance based on last year’s schedule.
How To Vote In TOTY?To vote, you first need to know that the event officially started on Tuesday, January 7, 2025, and will last until 11:59 pm PST on January 12, 2025. During this period, you can enter EA Sports FC TOTY website to vote. But remember, only votes sent during this time will be valid. If you are not sure what to do after entering the website, here are the steps we provide for you:
Go to EA Sports FC TOTY website within the specified time. Go to Vote Men’s TOTY or Vote Women’s TOTY interface. Carefully browse the list of nominated players in all positions including attackers, midfielders, defenders and goalkeepers. Find your favorite players and select them to fill each position in your starting lineup. Check the option to agree to EA terms and conditions. Click Submit Vote option to vote successfully. What Are The Highlights Of This Year’s TOTY?TOTY promotion will allow you and other players to select two teams of 11 players each, with the winners then entering the game as TOTY Player Items. Each item will not only receive a unique blue design and gold accents, but will also significantly improve the corresponding player’s in-game stats and ratings, making them the best FUT 25 players you can choose.
It is worth noting that EA Sports FC 25 will also provide an additional 12th player alternative position for each of these two teams to recognize outstanding players who did not make the starting lineup, and this voting is usually held at the end of TOTY promotion. In addition, FC 25 will also launch a TOTY Icons team composed of legendary players.
These special items from TOTY promotion will be available to you as sets after release. If you have enough FIFA 25 Coins, you can add these high-value TOTY players to your team. You can even sell players for profit to strengthen the strength of your team, because the best players of the year who win this vote will then become the most sought-after players in the game, so the assets they represent will become your important chips in the game.

As one of the most successful MMORPGs in the world, Final Fantasy 14 has brought players a fulfilling and wonderful year in 2024. 2025 is coming, and FF14 may continue to build the world based on Dawntrail. Perhaps the mobile version of Final Fantasy 14 will be released in 2025, but the game progress in PC and consoles should remain ahead for quite a long time in terms of game content, so the following part focuses on the content that may be updated in PC and console versions.
Also Read: $1
Confirmed Features Main StoryPlayers may be able to wait for the main line update of Dawntrail in early 2025. The update may be released in Patch 7.2 on the day from March to April. The end of Patch 7.1 of Final Fantasy 14 left players with a suspense. A mysterious man appeared in Living Memory, and Warrior of Light may continue to investigate in Alexandria. The key ending may be released in mid-August to September, which is Patch 7.3.
Both patches will offer new dungeons, and in Patch 7.3 there will be a new Trial to fight against a foe that has yet to be unannounced.
More RaidPatches 7.2 and 7.3 will bring more raid content to players. Patch 7.2 will bring Cruiserweight Tier to the 8-player Arcadion raid series. This Cruiserweight Tier has Normal and Savage difficulties. Completing Arcadion’s Light-Heavyweight Tier on Normal mode is the prerequisite for players to unlock Cruiserweight Tier.
Echoes of Vana’diel alliance raid series will release the next chapter in Patch 7.3. Although it is not yet known what bosses players will encounter in these two series, it is certain that the bosses will become more powerful and players will need to update their FFXIV items.
Housing UpdateIn Final Fantasy 14, housing content has always been loved by players. Housing allows players to use their creativity and also brings profits, because in this game, land is limited. The land in each server has been occupied in advance by individual buyers and free companies.
Although it is not known whether the development team will add new housing areas in patches 7.2 and 7.3, the good news is that in these two versions, players can change the size of the interior space of the house through $1, while the exterior will not change. For example, a medium-sized house can be upgraded to a large-sized house, and the corresponding number of furniture that can be placed should also increase.
Shades’ TrianglePlayers will come to Shades’ Triangle at some point between patches 7.2 and 7.3. This will be the latest outdoor combat content. This outdoor action will be based on the real Bermuda Triangle, starting from Occult Crescent, a part of Shades’ Triangle, which may be the place where Dawntrail’s relic weapon quest begins. When players set foot on Shades’ Triangle, they will know what the development team has prepared for players.
Unconfirmed Part Dawntrail’s Trial SeriesThe development team said Trials released after Dawntrail will be separate quests, independent of the main story, just like Heavensward through Shadowbringers, in addition to Trials battles in patch 7.3, players can earn some Gil and other rewards by completing the quests.
The development team is tight-lipped about this, but players should get some official news when patch 7.2 is released. Trials battles have a tradition of extracting materials from previous Final Fantasy series, for example, players can see Final Fantasy 7 weapons in Shadowbringers, and Heavensward has Final Fantasy 6’s trident. Weapons from Final Fantasy 9 and Final Fantasy 11 may appear in Dawntrail, as it has already borrowed a lot from these two works.
Cosmic ExplorationCurrently, players know very little about the content of Cosmic Exploration, but this part has been announced to be released in Dawntrail, so players should be able to play this part in patch 7.2 or patch 7.3. According to the description of the development team, artisans and gatherers can see various planets and get help from interstellar races. If you want to get more information, you can follow the official follow-up live broadcast.
Next ExpansionDawntrail is expected to reach its end and climax in patch 7.3, and subsequent updates will pave the way for the Warrior of Light's next actions. Perhaps the story of 8.0 will take place between the southern lands of Meracydia and some unknown areas in the north of Ilsabard and Othard. The world of Etheirys is very vast, and there are many places where stories can be born. Players can look for clues between the previews of patches 7.2 and 7.3.
BeastmasterBeastmaster was announced at the 2024 Tokyo FanFest as the second confirmed Limited Job. However, the developers did not announce more content, which resulted in players knowing almost nothing about him at present. In any case, Beastmaster can debut in patch 7.4 at the earliest, which is about the winter of 2025, which is still a year away. Regarding the weapons and armor of this character, players need to get more information from the open group in subsequent versions.
FF14 has been running for many years, and players’ enthusiasm for this game has not diminished at all. Perhaps this is due to the fact that the development team knows what they are doing and what needs to be done. They will update according to the plan, which ensures the quality of the game. In any case, I look forward to Dawntrail bringing more exciting content to players in 2025.
Recently, the developer has officially announced an exciting news: New World: Aeternum Season 7 is coming soon, this is a brand new season, called Season of Conquerors.
It is revealed that the upcoming new season brings many new content and features, including PvP-focused Seasonal Worlds and some important upgrades to Expeditions.
At the same time, bugs that may occur during the game are also fixed to improve the player’s gaming experience.
New World was launched about 3 years ago. After its release, it achieved excellent results, but then the number of players showed a downward trend.
Despite this, the developer has not given up on upgrading and improving New World, and continues to provide New World players with many content updates and quality improvement services, including an expansion titled Rise of Angry Earth.
The expansion allows players to expand the basic game content of New World, including rideable mounts, new weapons, new quests, etc., to enrich the player’s gaming experience.
October 15th is a milestone day for New World. The developers released a new season - New World Aeternum. It re-enters the players’ field of vision with a brand new identity and many improvements.
Driven by this good news, the developers recently issued another exciting message to new and old players. New World Aeternum Season 7 is coming soon, which is a good start for the new year.
Release Time Of New World Aeternum Season 7New World: Aeternum Season 7 will be launched on January 21, 2025. The new season will bring a series of exciting new features and new experiences to PC and console players.
In order to keep the game vibrant and attractive, the developers have enriched a lot of new content. One of the highlights worth noting is the introduction of Seasonal Worlds, which provides players with a brand new experience with unique themes, game rules, and mechanisms.
This Seasonal World focuses on PvP. You can only join PvP and flag for PvP when you are level 15. In addition, the ability to obtain powerful equipment and additional compensation will be dropped after your unfortunate death is introduced.
So, if you want to quickly upgrade to this standard to open the new feature experience, it is recommended that you can keep enough $1 in advance to help you complete tasks faster in the game to achieve the upgrade goal.
The most exciting thing is that after this season, although these worlds will be closed, the characters you choose in this world will be able to be transferred to the permanent world of your choice!
Some New Seasonal Events In Season Of ConquerorsIt has been revealed that players can also look forward to some seasonal events, including Legacy of Crassus, Rabbit’s Revenge, and Siege of Sulfur event.
Legacy of Crassus is aptly named. You, as an adventurer need to challenge Roman general and his cyclopean allies to seize top loot and obtain upgrade rewards, including up to 700 Gear Score.
Rabbit’s Revenge is one of the fan favorites, and it’s back with new gameplay, including special rewards for hunting mischievously corrupted rabbits.
The new season also adds Siege of Sulfur, which requires you to team up with at least 10 max-level players to protect sandworm eggs from sulfurous enemies.
In addition, the developers have added a preview weekend section to Outpost Rush map for the new season, which gives you a sneak peek at the layout changes and new gameplay content after the game is updated.
