Furthermore, fans will also be getting another surprise in the form of a new hero, the identity of which is currently unknown.

However, it seems like players have already started speculating on what the new hero will be, and the answer might just be none other than ‘Sorla Khan’, the leader of the Red Mist army who replaced Axe.

The speculation comes from a number of reasons, the primary reason being the fact that the update has been termed as ‘Mistwood’ by the Dota 2 devs. ‘Mistwood’ might be hinting towards the Red Mist Army, which is led by Sorla Khan.

A few hours ago, InnerSloth’s murder mystery title ‘Among Us’ received a console release for Nintendo Switch, winning the hearts of millions of console users who had no way of playing Among Us prior to this move.

The console price of the game is set at $5 USD, which is the same as its price on PC. The game is still free-to-play on Mobile.

It is also known that the Nintendo Switch port supports crossplay with PC and mobile, which means you can play with your friends regardless of what platform you or your friends are using.

Originally released in 2018, Among Us failed to gain any significant traction before this year when some popular streamers and content creators picked it up.

Fortnite Performance Mode Coming to PC

Performance mode is set to be introduced in Fortnite in the next update, ahead of next year.

As the name suggests, performance mode is an option feature for player struggling to run the game at playable FPS. Being in the alpha stage will limit this feature to Battle Royale and Creative Mode but it is ideal for less fortunate players who are without decent PCs at this moment.

The extra performance isn’t generated out of thin air, but players need to compromise on visual quality for extra frames. The low-quality textures will reduce the load on the CPU and GPU, which given more room for your PC to push extra frames. This update will be perfect for players having low-end PC that can’t maintain a constant 60FPS.

The benchmarks are more than impressive. If such hardware is capable of pushing such an amount of frames, the performance mode update delivers just as promised. This feature will likely bring more casual players to the game, who are willing to enjoy with friends irrespective of the poor graphics.

Performance mode will be available in the Video Options under Advanced Graphics. Change the Rendering Mode to Performance (Alpha).

Sony Refusing to Refund Some Copies of Cyberpunk 2077

Sony Refusing to Refund Some Copies of Cyberpunk 2077

CD Projekt Red doesn’t seem to be getting a minute to rest since the release of Cyberpunk 2077. Since the release on December 10th, each day a new bugs, glitches or news gives a headache to the developers.

Just Yesterday, CD Projekt Red had released a public announcement apologizing for the state of the game on the older generation of consoles such as PS4 and Xbox One. The company promised everyone that they will fix bugs and crashes, and improve the overall experience, with the first round of updates been released and the next one coming within the next 7 days. The company also promised refunds for players who still weren’t satisfied with the resolution and wanted to go ahead with a refund.

However, despite CD Projekt Red promising refunds to disappointed gamers, Sony has reportedly refused refunds to those who purchased the digital PS4 version of the game. After the news of refunds being issued broke, many users contacted their respective console makers for refund, but soon on Twitter, many users expressed their frustration about being denied a refund of their digital purchase of Cyberpunk 2077 for PS4, posting several screenshots of their PlayStation customer support conversations where the support representatives flat-out denied refunds.

PlayStation customer support representatives have reportedly referred to the PlayStation Store Cancellation Policy, which states that a game cannot be refunded if it has been downloaded or streamed. Even after users argued about CD Projekt Red allowing the refund and asking them to contact PSN for a refund, the support representatives seemingly tried to sway customers away from urging for a refund, citing CD Projekt Red’s announcement of patches for the console versions of Cyberpunk 2077 on the way.

While CD Projekt Red offered for any customers struggling to get a refund to contact them directly at the “[email protected]” email address, it’s only available for those users who are facing issues trying to refund the physical copies. There’s no denying of oversight and miscommunication between CD Projekt Red and Sony about this special scenario where the PlayStation Store Cancellation Policy won’t apply. It’s disappointing for users of PS4 and has left many gamers with a sour taste in their mouths and will further add to their fury.

Valorant Griefers Are Using Jump Bots To Avoid AFK Detection

The quality of matchmaking in Valorant is deteriorating at a steady pace, thanks to griefers, smurfs, and abusers who intentionally throw games to disrupt the matchmaking experience of other players on the server.

While Riot is actively working to prevent these abusers from ruining games, it looks like a new method has surfaced that lets these players dodge AFK detection by executing small movements every once in a while.

According to a Reddit post made a day ago, a portion of players are using jump-bots to ruin Valorant games and there’s nothing you can do about it.

PSA: You can, and people currently are, AFKing with jump-bots.

Valorant AFK Bot

As mentioned earlier, these jump-bots execute random movements at specific intervals so that they can’t be marked as an AFK by the server. This not only causes one team to have a player disadvantage, but they also wouldn’t get the extra ultimate orb and cash that generally balances out the player shortage.

Fans will be looking forward to seeing what measures will Riot implement to curb this newly surfaced griefing method.
