World Of Warcraft’s Arthas Helm of Domination Replica Is The Pointiest Collectible Ever Made

Lining up with this weekend’s BlizzCon, Blizzard is offering up the previously-announced Helm of Domination collectible, which goes on sale tomorrow, February 19 at 3 PM PT / 6 PM ET on the Blizzard Gear Store. We got to take a closer look at it, and it’s very spikey.

Blizzard sent us the collectible, and the helmet may not be big enough to fit on your own head, but this World of Warcraft 30th anniversary replica is highly-detailed and feels pretty sturdy. Primarily made of polyresin (88%, Plastic: 6%, and Alloy: 6%), the collectible comes in at nearly 17-inches tall–when placed on the stand. However, this helmet will cost you a pretty penny–$300 to be exact. Check out some images of it below.

The stand for the helmet keeps it in place and upright. There is a tremendous amount of detail within the helmet, including the inscription around the gem between the eyes. It’s surprising how well this helmet translates into a collectible. And no, it’s not full scale, but this helmet is already very large, and scaling it up any more would make a challenge to put on a shelf–because you wouldn’t have the room.

Call Of Duty: Warzone Season 2 Adds New Modes And Introduces More Mysteries

In addition to the mammoth update for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, the battle royale game Warzone is getting a big refresh for Season 2 as well. Activision ran down all the key details in a blog post, and we’re highlighting the most important bits here.

New Places To Explore And More Mysteries

With the Season 2 update, Verdansk is expanding the number of points of interest to explore, but one shines above the rest. The cargo tanker Vodianoy–which was previously seen off the coast of Rebirth Island–is now missing from that location. It’s now at the Port of Verdansk, but all is not well.

“Operators within the vicinity are recommended to exercise extreme caution, as the ship is carrying unknown cargo, and its crew are not able to be contacted,” Activision said.

Silent Hill Might Be Getting Two Reboots, With One From The Medium Dev – Report

Konami might not be preparing one, but two new Silent Hill entries, with one Japanese developer preparing for a reveal this summer.

The report, compiled by VGC, suggests that Konami might be preparing two different reboots of the popular horror franchise, with one already well into development at a Japanese studio. Bloober Team, developer of The Medium, could potentially be working on the other, with CEO Piotr Babieno confirming that the studio has been working on a horror IP from a “very famous gaming publisher.”

“We’ve been working for more than a year on another gaming project, another horror IP, and we’re doing this with a very famous gaming publisher,” Babieno said in an interview with GamesIndustry.biz. “I can’t tell you who. I can’t tell you what the project is, but I’m pretty sure when people realize we’re working on it, they will be very excited.”

Fortnite: Best Way To Deal Damage After Gliding

This week in Fortnite, you’ll be asked to deal damage within 15 seconds of gliding as part of the new Season 5, Week 12 challenges. You’ll need to do 200 points worth of damage to complete this quest, for a total of 20,000 XP. If you’re used to playing the regular Battle Royale mode, you will probably struggle to pull this one off, unless you get lucky–and even then, you’ll have to potentially stretch out this challenge across multiple rounds. There’s an easier way to complete it in one go, which we’ve outlined in our guide below.

How to glide in Fortnite

The “gliding” this challenge refers to is exactly what you think it is–deploying your glider as you skydive onto the map. In normal Battle Royale matches, you can only deploy your glider once, unless you use Rifts or Launch Pads. We don’t recommend relying on this method to complete this quest if you’re looking to get it done quickly. The best way to complete this challenge is to play a team mode that allows you to re-deploy your glider, like Team Rumble or Battle Lab.

The fastest way to deal damage after gliding

To get this challenge done fast, we recommend playing Team Rumble mode. Team Rumble is a great mode to complete this challenge in because it grants two opportunities to re-deploy your glider: when you respawn and when you jump off any ledge. To find this mode, head to game mode options from the lobby where you can select solo, duos, trios and squads. Ignore the standard Battle Royale modes and select Team Rumble, which should be listed down at the bottom left next to Creative mode.
