The answer for today’s Wordle is only a click away now you’re here, ready to dish out an easy win or turn what looked like certain defeat into an effortless victory. Need something a little less intense? Take a look at our clue for the June 19 (1096) puzzle instead, designed to give your game a bit of help while still leaving the fun bits to you.

One green, two greens, three greens, win. It’s not often I get to see fresh correct letters lined up as neatly as that, so it felt a little like I was literally chipping away at today’s answer as I travelled down the board. That was a satisfying game, I hope you enjoy it too.

You’ll find a hint for today’s Wordle ready and waiting just a little further down this page, designed to help you get a smooth start, or untangle a mess of yellow letters before you hit the bottom of the board. We’ve got the answer to the August 29 (1167) Wordle on hand too, just in case you need it.

Nine grey letters in two guesses? C’mon Wordle, I thought we were friends. It didn’t feel like the most positive start at the time, but it did quickly rule out a lot of potential combinations, and to my surprise, I ended up winning with a few rows to spare. You can make sure you get off to a much better start than I did with today’s hint, if you like.

Halo Infinite has been on a roll lately, with its latest season having the makings of an honest-to-god comeback. The game is now well stocked with fun maps and game modes, while its battle passes have evolved from terrible to tolerable. The player count has jumped significantly, and a flood of nostalgia-bait maps from Halo 3 that will absolutely work on me are just a week away. 

The Halo community is pretty upbeat for the first time in two years, but I’d say players are almost universally displeased with the latest cosmetic launched in the Infinite shop today: the Mark V armor that Master Chief wears in the original Halo: Combat Evolved.

The design isn’t the problem—players seem to love the modern interpretation of the 22-year-old armor’s simpler polygons. The pro…

We’ve been waiting an awfully long time for something to finally drag virtual reality into the mainstream, and maybe—just maybe—this is it: Roblox, the massively popular gaming platform that draws in more people every single day than there are Canadians in Canada, is coming very soon to Meta Quest VR headsets.

The VR version of Roblox will be available on the Meta Quest 2 and Quest Pro headsets, and the new Quest 3 when it launches later this year. It will initially be available in open beta, which Meta said will be “a great opportunity for the Roblox developer community to optimize their existing games for Quest and build new ones for VR.”

Some existing Roblox “experiences,” as they’re officially known, will be published for the Roblox VR lineup automatically, b…

A class-action lawsuit has been filed in California against Stability AI, Midjourney, and DeviantArt by artists alleging these companies have infringed on their copyright. The issue largely stems from the use of copyrighted images found within massive catalogues of data used to train these companies’ AI art generation tools, which are often used without artists’ agreement or any form of compensation.

The artists are represented by the Joseph Saveri law firm (via Ars Technica), who notes “Stable Diffusion and other image-generating AI products could not exist without the work of painters, illustrators, photographers, sculptors, and other artists.”

“…The creators of these image generators violated the rights of at least thousands of artists when they created their various pr…

Deep in Baldur’s Gate 3’s mammoth patch notes for its fifth main update is a whammy of a line: “Minthara will still appear in Moonrise Towers if she was knocked out in Act 1.” That’s right⁠, it’s now easier than ever to recruit Baldur’s Gate 3’s “evil” companion without committing to an evil playthrough. Spoilers for Act 1 below.

About halfway through BG3’s first act, you can side with either Silvanus’ Grove or a marauding goblin tribe, with the former eventually netting you hunky druid Halsin as a companion, and the latter resulting in the friendship of Drow hardass Minthara. The goblin path is pretty heinous, so a lot of players (myself included) have missed out on Minthara’s unique character arc and romance subplot⁠—she placed dead last in our…

Generally, Prime Day is an excellent time to nab yourself a deal on everything from full gaming PCs to SSDs to the most tempting of forbidden fruit, but not everything is quite as generous an offer as the big red “Prime Day Sale” sticker would have you believe. In fact, some of the stuff that’s gotten a price cut is downright laughable: barely more than an attempt to offload some unwanted stock to unsuspecting punters.

Not you and me, of course, because you’re here reading about all the best deals that we’ve painstakingly uncovered in the Bezos deal mines. But I guarantee you that someone, somewhere out there has dropped four figures on an RTX 30-series gaming laptop and thought they’d snagged themselves a bargain. 

A moment of silence for them, please.

In the Total War: Warhammer games, some of your armies have procedurally generated lords with randomized names and perks, while others are led by Legendary Lords, bespoke characters often drawn from the setting’s history. At first the only heroes you could have roaming the land solo or embedded in those armies were randomized ones, leaving characters from the fiction who weren’t really generals absent excluding the occasional text event or temporary summoning.

Since then, a handful of Legendary Heroes have made their way into the games, most notably Felix and Gotrek from the popular series of books, but also the wood elf mage-queen Ariel, Venerable Lord Kroak on the lizardmen side, and several others. That trend is set to continue in Total War: Warhammer 3, according to Creative A…
