Overview & Key Takeaways

Watcher of Realms is a character-collecting RPG from Moonton that already boasts a tremendous roster. As our Watcher of Realms tier list demonstrates, there's practically a pick for anyone, no matter your chosen strategy. But two new major additions could be here to upset the apple cart, with the debut of Sergei and Guan Yu. Sergei is a monstrous martial artist with a tragic backstory, having trained under Master Zenith to fight off the Tide of Darkness. But after accidentally injuring a fellow trainee, he's sworn to fight for redemption. Certainly a fine addition to Watcher of Realms' roster, if a little overshadowed by the second new character. ...

  • Watcher of Realms is expanding its roster with two new exciting characters
  • Historical figure Guan Yu joins the line-up alongside debuting character Sergei
  • Dive in and take advantage of new rate-up events to level them further

Watcher of Realms is a character-collecting RPG from Moonton that already boasts a tremendous roster. As our Watcher of Realms tier list demonstrates, there's practically a pick for anyone, no matter your chosen strategy. But two new major additions could be here to upset the apple cart, with the debut of Sergei and Guan Yu.

Sergei is a monstrous martial artist with a tragic backstory, having trained under Master Zenith to fight off the Tide of Darkness. But after accidentally injuring a fellow trainee, he's sworn to fight for redemption. Certainly a fine addition to Watcher of Realms' roster, if a little overshadowed by the second new character.

For readers at all familiar with Chinese history or mythology, Guan Yu will need little introduction. A historical figure so lionised he's been literally referred to as a god, and a hugely popular subject for films, books and games, Guan Yu is in grand form in Watcher of Realms.

Watch this

If you're interested in grabbing either of these new additions to your lineup, then there are a few key dates to keep in mind. From March 20th to the 23rd, Guan Yu and one Wish Hero will have a 20x rate-up for a limited period. Meanwhile, from the 21st to the 23rd, Sergei and the existing character Valderon will get the same benefit. Not to mention log-in events to mark Guan Yu's debut.

And keep an eye on your calendar too, because Moonton have hinted at a 'mysterious event' also in the offing. Details are scant, but we know there will be plenty of rewards, including an exclusive avatar, a skin for Guan Yu and a Summoning Stone skin to boot.

Heroic Legends Reborn is the product of two brothers rebuilding an MMO from the ground up

We all get nostalgic for games which other people seem to overlook. For me, it's Two Worlds (yeah, I know), and for two brothers, it's the now fifteen-year-old MMO Heroic Legends! So, what do you do when that game has disappeared? Well, if you're like them, you rebuild it yourself. With blessings from the original creators and access to the artwork used to create the hand-painted MMO, two brothers known as SonOfBoo and Andepher have recreated Heroic Legends from the ground up. Rechristened as Heroic Legends Reborn, it's slated to arrive on iOS and Android on September 5th. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/heroic-legends-reborn/coming-soon/)

Nintendo’s War On Switch Emulators Continues With 400 More GitHub Takedowns🍄 Nintendo Switch, Mobile, Multi-platform

Nintendo’s War On Switch Emulators Continues With 400 More GitHub Takedowns

Nintendo is doing what Nintendo does: issuing DMCA takedown notices to anyone who illegally offers access to any of the company's games. That's exactly what happened earlier this week, as Nintendo wiped out over 400 Switch emulators from GitHub. According to an August 21 TorrentFreak report(https://torrentfreak.com/nintendo-wipes-out-400-switch-emulator-repos-in-single-day-github-sweep/), the Mario maker sent the proprietary developer platform seven DMCA takedown notices targeting Nintendo Switch emulator repositories. This includes Suyu (the Yuzu successor that became popular after Yuzu shut down(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-lawsuit-shuts-down-switch-emulator-yuzu-and-3ds-emulator-citra/1100-6521589/) in March 2024), the Android emulator Skyline, and a few lingering Yuzu forks. In total, some 401 repositories were nuked off GitHub, with 311 of them being Suyu. Now that they're removed, if you attempt to visit the repository on GitHub, you'll receive either a 404 error or a pop-up notification that it's been taken down. In the DMCA pop-up notification, Nintendo states that the targeted repositories "offer, link to, or otherwise provide access to Nintendo Switch emulators." The company said these emulators violate Technological Protection Measures (TPMs), which act as digital locks controlled by copyright owners to prevent copying data illegally. "Specifically, these Nintendo Switch emulators illegally circumvent Nintendo's TPMs in order to run illegal copies of Nintendo Switch games," the notice reads. "Nintendo Switch games are encrypted using proprietary cryptographic keys (prod.keys) which protect against unauthorized access to and copying of the copyrighted games. During operation, the emulators at the reported repositories necessarily use unauthorized copies of these cryptographic keys to decrypt unauthorized copies of Nintendo Switch games, or ROMs, at or immediately before runtime without Nintendo's authorization." With Nintendo summoning the Eye of Mario on 401 repositories earlier this week, and over 8,500 repositories in May 2024(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-shuts-down-yuzu-clones-in-ongoing-quest-to-kill-switch-emulation/1100-6523158/), this brings the company's repository death count to almost 9,000 on GitHub alone. And with Nintendo filing a lawsuit against Yuzu creator Tropic Haze in February 2024(https://kotaku.com/nintendo-zelda-tears-kingdom-switch-yuzu-emulate-pirate-1851293463), which resulted in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom(https://www.gamespot.com/games/the-legend-of-zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom/) being pirated over one million times before it launched, the company's war on emulators continues.
