The Marathon Cryo Archive release time is now, at least for the time being. The endgame activity, alongside ranked mode, only opens to players on the weekends, a move that’s garnered some criticism from those whose lives don’t fit Bungie’s schedule.

Slay The Spire 2’s first actual proper major update is upon us, an avalanche of balancing tweaks and fixes for the roguelite deckbuilder that has approximately two goals: making some of those insectile cards less appalling, care of the previously announced Phobia Mode, and dialling back the prevalence of infinites – that is, card combos with effects that allow you to carry on playing them forever in a single turn.
