Valorant To Get Unreal Engine 5 Upgrade in July 2025

Valorant will transition to Unreal Engine 5 in July 2025, Riot Games announced in a recent statement.

This move is expected to deliver a significant visual upgrade for the competitive shooter, which has earned widespread recognition among esports fans for its gunplay mechanics and Agent abilities.

For the uninitiated, Valorant has been running on Unreal Engine 4 since its initial launch in June 2020. Not only is it optimized to run on modest hardware, but it also consistently delivers 60+ FPS even on low-end PCs.

According to the dev team, the Valorant Unreal Engine 5 upgrade isn’t expected to change the overall feel of the game or core gameplay mechanics, but it will bring performance enhancements and enable faster patch downloads moving forward.

Alongside announcing the engine upgrade, Riot Games also confirmed a bunch of other exciting additions coming to Valorant in the near future. These changes include a new map, improved smurf detection, 2FA, and the long-anticipated replay system.

The first Valorant patch following the Unreal Engine 5 upgrade is expected to be a ‘significantly large download.’ It will be added to the game with the Valorant 11.02 update, which will hit the live servers towards the end of July 2025.

Elden Ring Nightreign Patch Notes 1.01.1

As the annoying Solo Player mode continues to get on the nerves of Elden Ring players, the developers have addressed the issues in the latest update. Elden Ring Nightreign Patch Notes 1.01.1 addresses several issues across that game that have been plaguing the experience for a while.

“Nightreign has some peculiar aspects to its game design and is different from our recent titles in various ways,” Kitao said. “Nonetheless, many of you have bravely jumped into this world, and for that, we’re immensely grateful.”

“As with Demon’s Souls or Sekiro, it may be confounding at first, but just like those games, Nightreign offers its own challenges and experiences. Once you overcome the initial hurdle, it’ll surely provide a sense of accomplishment that’s also its very own,” said producer Yasuhiro Kitao.

Epic Announces Fortnite Kings League 2025 World Cup Collaboration

Kings League has just announced its collaboration with Epic Games for the 2025 World Cup, arguably one of the year’s biggest sporting events. While the Kings League boasts one of the biggest audiences in Europe, having a traditional sports league collaborate with one of the biggest games will give us one of the best events from Epic Games.

Set to take place between June 1 and June 14, Kings League’s 7-a-side football promotes street-style style fast-paced football. What started as a creative concept to revive a niche aspect of football has turned into a global phenomenon, and now they are hosting events at the biggest stadiums.

While both games have a common demography as their consumers, having them collaborate will result in an amazing promotional event for either party, as they might be able to pull interest from each other.

Epic has not confirmed things from their end, but we can assume the Kings League collaboration will bring some special football-centric elements to the game that will see an increase in interest among the players towards football, especially the Kings League.

If things go as we are hoping, this collaboration will be one of the best we have seen from Epic Games so far.

Valorant Unveils ‘Why We Fight’ 5th Anniversary Cinematic

In celebration of the fifth anniversary of Valorant, Riot Games has launched a cinematic called “Why We Fight” and debuted Nigerian singer-songwriter Qing Madi’s new single, “EGO.” The cinematic explores Valorant‘s lore with inspiration from the First Light event, which triggered the development of Alpha Earth and set up the universe of the game.

Born Chimamanda Pearl Chukwuma in Benin City, Nigeria, Qing Madi has quickly risen through the ranks of music with her innovative fusion of Afrobeats, pop, soul, and R&B. Her debut single “See Finish” in 2022 drew much attention, which was soon followed by the hit song “Ole” with Bnxn in 2023. Those songs opened the gates for her self-titled EP Qing Madi in November 2023, which revealed her strength and depth as an artist.

In January 2025, she dropped her debut studio album, I Am the Blueprint, a collection of 13 songs that reflected her growth as an individual and artist. Qing Madi defines her music as “Afrosupernatural,” with the goal to establish an intimate and euphoric space for listeners. Aside from her musical skills, she has had training in classical ballet, which she attributes to increasing her stage presence and self-discipline.

Meet Mary Ade: A New Valorant Character

“Why We Fight” also introduces Mary Ade, Phoenix’s sister. Mary is not a playable agent but provides context to the game’s storyline, especially regarding Phoenix’s history. David Nottingham, Valorant Creative Director, has said that Mary’s character and the song “EGO” reflect the bittersweet nature of the game’s 2025 celebration, commemorating the veteran players and dealing with the emotional struggle of agents like Phoenix.
Riot Games’ Musical Collaborations

Riot Games has experience making music a part of its gaming culture. Past collaborations have involved artists such as Zedd, Mark Tuan, and MILLI, with the outputs being special skins, champion themes, and event-based songs. These collaborations seek to elevate the gaming culture by combining interesting stories and various musical acts.

Street Fighter Skins May Return to Fortnite This Month

As the Street Fighter series celebrates a major milestone on June 2, 2025, excitement builds up among Fortnite players about the likely return of the legendary Street Fighter skins. These skins, including characters such as Chun-Li and Cammy, have been out of the Item Shop since August 2022, which is almost three years.

The first-ever partnership between Epic Games and Capcom, headed by Chun-Li and Ryu, introduced Street Fighter characters into Fortnite in 2021. The popularity of this union pushed more characters such as Guile, Cammy, Blanka, and Sakura into the game. These skins became instant fan favorites, merging fighting games and battle royale into a groundbreaking crossover.

The extended lack of these skins has ignited wide-ranging debates among the players. Some hope for their return, particularly during major events like the Street Fighter anniversary. Others wonder about possible licensing issues between Capcom and Epic Games that could have held back re-releases.

Reddit comments are littered with users expressing their willingness to buy these skins, with comments registering nostalgia as well as a need for gameplay aesthetics. The popularity of the community speaks volumes about the enduring influence of the Street Fighter crossover in Fortnite.

Although there has been no official word from Epic Games on bringing Street Fighter skins back, the timing of the franchise’s anniversary is the perfect time. The Fortnite fanbase continues to hold out hope, keeping an eye on the Item Shop for any indication that the popular characters are coming back.

How To Play Elden Ring Nightreign 2-Player Co-Op: Duo Expedition Mod

FromSoftware has once again taken the world of video games by storm with the launch of its newest title, Elden Ring Nightreign. With over 2 million copies sold within a day of its release, the game has seen remarkable success among gamers throughout the world.

However, the launch of Elden Ring Nightreign has been far from flawless. Not only has the game been plagued by performance issues, but one of the most prominent complaints from players is the absence of a two-player co-op mode.

For the uninitiated, Elden Ring Nightreign only supports singleplayer or 3-player co-op for the time being, which renders the game unplayable for duos looking to experience the journey together without adding a third companion.

Fortunately, modders have stepped in to save the day. In only a few hours of the game’s launch, a 2-player co-op mod has surfaced on Nexus that enables players to enjoy Elden Ring Nightreign with their duos.

Elden Ring Nightreign 2-Player Mod Guide

Want to play Elden Ring Nightreign co-op but don’t have a third person?

Instead of asking for randoms to join you on Discord, you only need to download the Elden Ring Nightreign 2-player mod and jump into the adventure with your duo.

Without further ado, let’s check out how to get the 2-player co-op mod for Elden Ring Nightreign.

How To Get the Elden Ring Nightreign 2-Player Mod

To download and install the 2-player co-op mod for Nightreign, you’ll first need to head over to the mod page for Seamless Co-Op on Nexus Mods.

Go to the ‘Files’ tab, and hit ‘Manual Download’ to get the 2-player co-op mod on your PC.

Once you have the mod, you’ll need to find your installation directory for Elden Ring Nightreign. To do so, follow these steps:

  • Launch Steam
  • Go to your Steam Library.
  • Look for ‘Elden Ring Nightreign’ in your list of games.
  • Right-click on it and go to ‘Properties.’
  • Under the ‘Installed Files’ tab, hit ‘Browse’.
  • Go to the folder titled ‘Game.’

In a new window, extract the zip you downloaded earlier, and copy the ‘SeamlessCoop’ folder.

Paste the folder under the ‘Game’ folder in the Elden Ring Nightreign installation directory.

And that’s it! You have now successfully installed the 2-player mod for Elden Ring Nightreign. Now, you can launch the game via Steam as usual and play Nightreign duos with your friend.

Elden Ring Nightreign Fatal Error & Black Screen Fix

With the short span since its release, Elden Ring Nightreign has managed to win the hearts of gamers across the world with its seamless co-op gameplay and adrenaline-pumping boss fights. However, despite being a largely successful game, the newest FromSoftware title isn’t without its flaws.

The launch day of Elden Ring Nightreign has been marred by performance issues, with many players reporting black screens, fatal errors, and startup crashes. While FromSoftware is generally swift to patch out any game-breaking issues, you might want to try a few proven fixes in the meantime to get back into the game and enjoy Nightreign without any interruptions.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through what you need to do to fix the infamous Elden Ring Nightreign fatal error, black screens, and crashes on launch.

Elden Ring Nightreign Fatal Error & Black Screen Fix

In most cases, fatal errors, black screen, and crash-to-desktop (CTD) issues in Elden Ring Nightreign are linked with CPU usage spikes. However, other factors may also contribute to these problems.

Here’s what you can try to do to fix the aforementioned issues in Elden Ring Nightreign:

  • Update the Game: FromSoftware has already deployed a day one patch to Elden Ring Nightreign to fix some core issues that have been haunting the player base. Update the game and see if the crashes persist.
  • Lock Frame Rate: Locking your Elden Ring Nightreign’s frame rate to 30-60 FPS can help reduce load on your CPU and prevent sudden CPU usage spikes, which can help prevent crashes and black screen issues.
  • Core Isolation: Some users have reported that turning off Core Isolation in Windows 11 can help prevent crashes in Elden Ring Nightreign. To turn off Core Isolation in Windows, simply follow these steps:
    • Open the Windows Security app
    • Navigate to Device Security
    • Turn off the Memory Integrity option under Core Isolation Details
    • Restart your PC after applying the changes
  • Lower Your Graphics Settings: If you feel like your rig is having a tough time handling the graphics of Elden Ring Nightreign, you should try lowering your in-game graphics settings to reduce the overall load on your CPU and GPU.

Once you follow these steps correctly, your fatal errors, black screens, and CTD issues should likely be fixed. If the problem persists, your best option may be to wait for an official hotfix from the developers.
