With those little hints, you should be able to get the solution in no time at all.

Of course, if you’re still struggling, we have today’s Wordle solution here for you as well.

We’re only a few days away from the official release of Disney Dreamlight Valley, and developer Gameloft has wasted no time in showing it off during Gamescom week. They’ve just dropped a new trailer showing off various characters and locales featured in the game, and yeah, it looks pretty damn idyllic.

You can check out the trailer for yourself down below:

One of my biggest personal takeaways is that Remy has his very own restaurant that you can visit, and that’s pretty much all I need to check out this game. Other iconic characters like Scrooge McDuck and Kristoff from Frozen also show up in the trailer, and if you ever wanted a farming/life sim game that featured most of your favorite Disney icons, this is probably the game to look out for.

Disney Dreamlight Valley is set to be released for PC and consoles on Sept. 6.

This means that you’ll be able to choose between Rock, Paper, or Scissors and fight for their honor and prove that your team is truly the best option.

Today Naughty Dog released one more video clip comparing the graphics of The Last of Us Part 1 against The Last of Us Remastered.

This time around we get a brief but compelling look at the Capitol and how it was rebuilt to look much more realistic and detailed.

As we saw before, the lighting, the materials, the textures, and even the 3D models on PS5 all show massive differences when showcased side-by-side with The Last of Us Remastered on PS4.

This follows another video released a few days ago, a second, and a third, which showcased different scenes.

You can check it out below.

The Last of Us Part 1 will release for PS5 on September 2, with a PC version following soon after.

If you’re unfamiliar with this game, it’s a remake “built for the ground up” for PS5 according to the developers, bringing the ultra-popular 2013 classic to today’s standards.

Today Microsoft released a new trailer of the upcoming action strategy game Minecraft Legends.

The trailer focuses on the backstory of the game that has the Piglins invading the overworld and a hero uniting everyone to fight them back.

On top of the trailer, we also get a video segment with the developers in which they explain what the game is all about and how it’s being developed.

The video also showcases brief glimpses of gameplay while creative director Magnus Nedfors and executive producer Dennis Ries explain what we can expect from an action strategy game set in the Minecraft world.

Interestingly, we hear that adding a hero to the strategy game slows down the tempo of the RTS gameplay and makes it more suitable to be played on a console.

Ultimately the developers want to create that can be enjoyed by both gamers that don’t usually play strategy games and enthusiasts of the genre as well.

You can find both videos below for your viewing pleasure.

Wordle has taken the world by storm ever since the start of this year, and it doesn’t look like the hype is dying down any time soon. If you’re a longtime Wordle player and you’re struggling with today’s puzzle, however, we’re here to help. Here’s a full list of 5-letter words starting with I and ending with Y to help you maintain your streak.

5 Letter Words Starting With I and Ending With Y

• Icily
• Imply
• Inlay
• Irony
• Islay

There are only eight possible answers, and if you’ve already had a couple other guesses beforehand, you should be able to pick out the right solution pretty quickly. Simply use the color cues to narrow it down: green means your letter’s in the right place, while yellow means your letter’s in the wrong place.

If you’re still struggling, though, we have today’s Wordle solution to help you out.

And that does it for our full list of five-letter words starting with I and ending with Y. Be sure to search for Twinfinite for more tips and information on the game.

Bruce made it clear Jennifer Walters (She-Hulk) that being a Hulk would bring unwanted baggage, and he was right. Soon after her transformation in the premiere episode, in an effort to prevent Titania from causing more harm, Jennifer Walters is fired. She tries and tries to get a new job, but one wants to hire She-Hulk; it’s too much of a risk. On one fateful night at the bar, someone throws her a bone and she’s back in the lawyer business. So, what is the name of the law firm She-Hulk works for?

What Law Firm Does She-Hulk Work At?

She-Hulk, as of Episode 2, works for GLK&H—an acronym for Goodman, Lieber, Kurtzberg, and Holliway. When Jennifer Walters (She-Hulk) is offered the job to join their firm, it’s Holden Holliway doing the talking. In a twist that only lawyers would pull, it was actually Holden Holliway who originally pushed for a mistrial.

However, it comes with all kinds of strings. For starters, it’s not so much Jennifer Walters doing the lawyering, but She-Hulk. See, Holden Holliway wants to start a new division of their law firm: the Superhuman Law Division. What better way to represent the cases they take on than their very own superhero? To make matters worse, she’ll be representing Emil Blonsky (Abomination), who was ordered to kill Bruce in The Incredible Hulk (that’s canon, by the way).

As mentioned before, GLK&H specifically wants She-Hulk on superhuman cases. These include libel, personal damages, and extraterrestrial incidences. For example, one such case was Spider-Man v. The Daily Bugle. Another was Constrictor v. Hercules, in an effort to get Hercules to pay for personal damages.

You likely have a friend or two that hasn’t logged into League of Legends in quite some time. Maybe they were burned out or weren’t getting that satisfaction from the game anymore. You might be feeling that, too. Sometimes League of Legends has corrupted files and reinstalling is the best course of action. Whatever the reason is to rid yourself of Riot Games’ popular MOBA, you’ll need to know how to uninstall League of Legends.

How to Uninstall League of Legends

Unlike, say, Steam, uninstalling League of Legends takes a bit of legwork. It’s easy, but very tedious. It involves using Windows’ Control Panel. Here’s what you do:

Splatoon 3’s first Splatfest is Rock VS Paper VS Scissors and it’s going to be a fierce battle to see which team comes out on top. In order to get the edge on your opponents, you can familiarize yourself with the weapons that will be available for everybody. Pick your favorite of the 26 playable weapons in Splatoon 3 Splatfest World Premiere and get out there and claim your turf.

The goal of the Splatoon 3 Splatfest is to win the most battles by claiming the most turf with your color ink. Each weapon is equipped with its own kit that includes a sub weapon and a special. These are the weapons that you’ll be able to use during the Splatfest World Premiere taking place this weekend.

Today Microsoft had a lot of news to deliver for fans of Microsoft Flight Simulator, directly from Cologne, Germany, where Gamescom 2022 is being hosted.

First of all, we get two themed releases, starting with the free “City Update 1” which brings five cities enhanced with photogrammetry to the sim. These are Hanover, Dortmund, Dusseldorf, Bonn, and Cologne itself.

Incidentally, I’ve met head of Microsoft Flight Sim Jorg Neumann and Asobo CEO Sebastian Wlock at Gamescom, and I heard from them that the City Updates could continue if this is week received by the sim’s users.

A new “Local Legend” aircraft has also been released, and it’s one of the grandfathers of airlines, the Junker F 13. It includes standard wheeled, floats, and ski versions, and it can be purchased on the official marketplace for $14.99.

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is a series that is looking to finally expand the world of the Hulk, introducing many new characters from across the Incredible Hulk comics, with each episode expanding this world even more. However, what is going on with the characters that have already been introduced years ago, especially someone like Abomination in particular? Well, we have the answer for you as this is whether or not Abomination is in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law.

Is Abomination in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law?

Yes, Abomination has now been seen within the series in its second episode, “Superhuman Law.” So far, we have seen Emil Blonsky in only one scene, as Jennifer’s new law firm wants her to take on his parole case. After getting her cousin’s approval at the end of the episode, She-Hulk makes the declaration that she will be taking on Blonsky as her client.

Abomination has been in the MCU almost since the beginning, appearing in the 2008 film, The Incredible Hulk, starring Edward Norton. This movie is clearly still canon to the MCU, something made apparent by the multiple references to the movie during the episode, with even a meta-joke added in about the casting change to Mark Ruffalo.

Over a decade after first being introduced, Blonsky finally appeared again in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, where he was found brawling with Wong in Xialing’s Golden Daggers Club. While we got pretty much no explanation at the time about why these two were involved at the fight club, given the ending of episode two of She-Hulk, we’ll likely get an answer very soon.

With episode 2 of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law out now on Disney+, the show is starting to ramp up a major conflict in the show. After getting fired at her job, Jennifer Walters is offered a comfy position at GLK&H, but only if she maintains her She-Hulk persona and accepts a case defending Emil Blonsky (Abomination). The last time we saw Abomination was in Shang-Chi; he was duking it out in the fighting pit with Wong. In fact, their fight was leaked in the final moments of episode 2 of She-Hulk. If Abomination is making an appearance, is Wong in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, too?

Is Wong in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law?

Yes, Wong will be in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. He hasn’t made himself known just yet, but you can see bits of his involvement in an official trailer for She-Hulk. However, it’s still unclear as to how Wong will impact the plot, if at all.

With that said, it will certainly focus on Wong and Abomination’s apparent friendship. They were quite chummy with one another in Shang-Chi. When it was revealed on the news that Abomination had escaped, it was only moments later that Wong opened a portal that led back to Abomination’s maximum security cell. If anyone can break Abomination out of his cell, it’s Wong, Sorcerer Supreme.

Genshin Impact’s An Unwavering Culinary Dream World Quest is an intricate series of tasks that requires you to aid the creatures of Sumeru. However, since it is a reasonably long journey, we’ve put together this guide that explains everything you must do to complete this mission.

Today Bandai Namco released two more trailers about the characters that are featured in the fighting game JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R.

The first trailer focuses on the characters coming from Part 5 of the manga and anime titled “Vento Aureo” or “Golden Wind.”

We get to see the whole cast including Trish Una, Prosciutto & Pesci (who act as a single character), and Ghiaccio.

The second trailer moves on to Stone Ocean and provides a look at one of its characters, Narciso Anastasia.

Of course, the trailer also showcases his stand, Diver Down, in action.

You can check both trailers out below.

Today Star Citizen developer Cloud Imperium Games revealed a new video about its growing space simulator.

The video focuses on the improvements being done to subterranean caves in the game, with new lighting and more.

On top of that, it discusses a very important topic, which is the new tutorial that will be included in the game to improve the onboarding of new players.

You can watch it below.

In other Star Citizen news, the crowdfunding total just passed $495 million and it’s currently sitting on $495,081,211.

The number of registered accounts has recently passed 4 million, having reached 4,048,229 at the moment of this writing.

As usual, you should keep in mind that it’s known that not all of them are paying players. The number includes free accounts created for a variety of reasons, including Free Fly events like the one that recently concluded.

Recently, creative director Chris Roberts provided an overview of the state of development and of the plans for 2022 and beyond.

FromSoftware has restored online servers for the PC version of Dark Souls 3 as of August 25th, 2022. The news comes after a group of hackers managed to find a major security exploit in the game's code earlier this year. FromSoftware also announced that the servers for PC versions of Dark Souls 2 and Dark Souls Remastered will also follow suit at a later date.

Back in January 2022, a group of white hat hackers found an exploit in Dark Souls 3. The security exploit would reportedly allow hackers to remotely execute commands on any player connected to the Dark Souls 3 servers. After bringing this to the attention of FromSoftware, the company decided to shut down the game's servers. As many games in the Dark Souls franchise share netcode, this also resulted in the PC servers of Dark Souls 2 and Dark Souls Remastered going offline.

Over half a year later, it appears FromSoftware has managed to fix the issue. As such, FromSoftware announced that it had "finalized its investigation and countermeasures". Similarly, it is currently working on applying the countermeasures to Dark Souls 2 and Dark Souls Remastered. FromSoftware added that it would inform players once the countermeasures have been applied.

Dark Souls 3 is available to play on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

Hello! Welcome back to our regular feature where we write a little bit about some of the games we've found ourselves playing over the last few days. This time: Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy, and one of the greatest games of all time.

If you fancy catching up on some of the older editions of What We've Been Playing, here's our archive.

When people talk about Final Fantasy 7, I go a bit quiet because, between you and me, I never actually played it. And I know, I know, but I didn't have a PlayStation so how could I? All I could do was go to my friend's house and watch him play, but there's a limit to how long you can do that before it gets weird and the parents throw you out.

According to the Steam page, Hololive Error will be a psychological horror with action-adventure elements in a first-person perspective.

Soul Hackers 2 is out now, and you might be wondering how you'll save the world equipped with nothing more than a COMP, a handful of demons, a few friends back from the dead, and the unlimited power of a sentient supercomputer. Fear not, because we're here with our very quick Soul Hackers 2 starter guide, highlighting a few quick reminders, tricks and tips to make your first hours as a Devil Summoner a little bit smoother. Read on to get started in its stylish cyberpunk world.

Save Often!

This one's a standard bit of gameplay advice, but an eternally relevant one. Soul Hackers 2 allows saving almost anywhere, but it's relatively lax on maintaining its auto-save slot. Use the manual save regularly to make sure you don't lose any progress, particularly before or after a pitched dungeon run.

Streaming giants Netflix have a BioShock movie to make and, after pointing their golf club at various directors, they’ve selected Francis Lawrence. He’s best known for overseeing three of The Hunger Games movies and is working on the prequel coming out next year, The Ballad Of Songbirds And Snakes.

Netflix have also hired screenwriter Michael Green for the BioShock flick. Green wrote the Kenneth Branagh versions of Agatha Christie’s Murder On The Orient Express and Death On The Nile. I guess that means he’s got experience of period settings.

Fans think they've found a world map which shows off the Splatoon series' flooded planet in full detail.

As a reminder, Splatoon lore fans believe that Nintendo's shooter series is set in a post-apocalyptic future where the sea levels have risen and much of our current world is underwater.

Indeed, the new map - apparently uncovered from the files of Splatoon 3's World Premiere Splatfest demo - appears to support that claim.

Bubble Bobble's Puzzle Bobble's Puzzle Bobble Everybubble! sure is one heck of a tongue twister.

But don't expect to hear more on this project anytime soon, Creative Assembly said today. Instead, there will be a "significant wait before further details are revealed" on this new franchise. Intriguingly, the company noted it also had plans for a separate "yet to be announced project".

While Creative Assembly did not go into any specifics about what its new action project will look like, it did state that its studio in Sofia would be leading its development, and noted it was now looking for candidates to join the team that had "experience working on third-person titles using the Unreal 5 engine".

High on Life has received a new video offering an extensive look at the title’s gameplay, and it’s raunchier elements are on full display.

Shown off at Microsoft’s Gamescom 2022 booth, the video offers a more detailed look at the game’s story, characters and combat. Some segments are sped up for the sake of getting past moments where the developers got lost or distracted, but otherwise the game’s comedy and first person shooter gameplay are put on full display.

The video starts with the main character interacting with their partner and an alien named Gene who is crashing in their house. Gene asks the player character to retrieve a stolen knife for them, and tasks them with accepting a bounty put out on an alien while they do so. This is done through the Bounty 5000, a machine that players will use to pick targets to hunt down and take out with their talking gun. For the video, they’re tasked with tracking down 9-Torg, a criminal who heads a small criminal operation.

The player character then moves out into the world, following waypoints toward their selected bounty while their talking weapon guides them through their journey. Along the way, they encounter an alien child that won’t let them pass without shooting them, and the jokes that ensue are as dark and fourth wall-breaking as one would expect from a Justin Roiland production.

Submarine thrillers used to be the du jour a few decades ago. 2000’s U-571, which starred Jon Bon Jovi, Bill Paxton, and Harvey Keitel springs to mind as a really successful one, and of course, you can’t forget John McTiernan’s 1990 classic The Hunt for the Red October whenever the topic of submarine warfare comes up. Today, however, a modern action-thriller that centers around those aforementioned aquatic war machines has pressed the red button and exploded to the top of streaming charts.

Specifically, the film in question is 2018’s Hunter Killer which has managed to launch its torpedoes at the competition and rise all the way to the number 4 spot on Hulu, according to FlixPatrol. This means it’s one of the most-watched films on the entire platform right now. Not too shabby, huh?

Three more DLC characters will appear in Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles, and they will be alternate versions of the main trio of Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu. These versions are based on the Entertainment District Arc. They will be available in mid-September 2022. [Thanks, ryokutya2089!]

The three DLC characters who will appear in Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles are: Tanjiro (Blood Tears), Inosuke (and Muscular Mice), and Zenitsu (Crossdressing Version). While Inosuke looks like his normal version, he will likely have a different move set. This is so that he can accommodate for the mice. As for Tanjiro, the Blood Tears version is based on how he appears during his fight against Daki.

Tanjiro (Blood Tears), Inosuke (and Muscular Mice), and Zenitsu (Crossdressing Version) will be the latest additions to the Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles DLC roster. They will be joining characters Tengen Uzui, Daki, Gyutaro, and Nezuko Kamado (Awakened). During the initial announcements, it was revealed that we would get DLC versions of Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu. However, it had not been clear as how they would appear in-game. Like the others, they will be paid DLC.
