Industrial ruins make for some good Turf War fodder Splatoon 3is steadily approaching, and the team has been teasing some more of what’s to come. Yesterday, theSplatoonNA Twitter accountposted a teaserof aSplatoon 3map in some decaying ruins. Dubbed “Mincemeat Metalworks,” this facility was made from scrap metal, in order to make more metal. There’s also some notable commentary here, that there was once a sea here but it evaporated. The map itself has a cool juxtaposition between the cold steel ruins, baking in the sun and heat, with the paint globs and inflatable coverSplatoonis known for....

Following aseries of prior fixes, the Colossal Order has now outlined the upcoming Economy 2.0 rework, and it’s a hoot. Or, at least, itshouldbe a hoot if it all pans out properly.

From AOEs to Zul’Farrak Read this list and let me know if it sounds like a good time. Crunching numbers in the wee hours of the night to maximize damage output. Grinding out levels and letting auto-attack handle things for a few seconds while you play the air drums to Phil Collins’ “In the Air Tonight.” Watching 10 different damage meters and battlelogs to see if everyone is running an efficient rotation....

Killing us not so softly with his song Netflix released an upgraded version of its earlierThe Punisherteaser trailer. Now,thisis what we’ve been waiting for. Sure, it starts with the requisite Frank Castle’s-family-was-killed backstory which is a bit slow. But then it picks up the pace and culminates in a couple of straight-out-of-the-comics stylePunishermoments.

You can hit up hisYouTube pageand check out his whole catalog, which stretches back a few years....
