Valheim: Back Up Your Data to Avoid the ‘Evil World-Destroyer Bug’
Valheim developer Iron Gate is advising all players to back up their world and characters, as the "evil world-destroyer bug is still roaming free."
Iron Gate's CEO Richard Svensson took to Twitter to share the warning, and let Valheim players know that the developer has yet to reproduce the bug even once, meaning it is still impacting certain players.
[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2021/02/12/valheim-11-tips-to-get-you-started"]
Svensson notes that it "seems to occur more often if you exit the game by ALT+F4, so try to use menu->exit instead."
He also notes that, if PC Valheim players weren't aware, worlds and characters are saved in C:UsersUsernameAppDataLocalLowIronGateValheim.
Valheim has been a huge success for Iron Gate, despite being in Early Access, and it sold over one million copies in just 8 days. As of this writing, Valheim is the third-most played game on Steam with a current player count of 297,783. Valheim peaked at 346,170 today, February 14, as well.

Zack Snyder’s Justice League Official Trailer Released
The official trailer for Zack Snyder's Justice League has been released and gives a glimpse of the film headed to HBO Max on March 18, 2021.
Zack Snyder had been teasing the new trailer all week, and even revealed footage of both Black Suit Superman and Darkseid.
[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2021/02/14/zack-snyders-justice-league-official-trailer"]
We also get another glimpse of Jared Leto's new look as Joker for Zack Snyder's Justice League. While we only got black and white images of Leto's Joker earlier in the week, we get a tease of him talking to Ben Affleck's Batman (Knightmare Batman!) in this trailer.
Speaking of Jared Leto, he quote-tweeted the trailer with the words "We live in a society," which Joker also says in the trailer. This phrase quickly became one of the top trending phrases on Twitter as it's been a Joker-related meme for years now.
No version of Joker has actually said the words up to this point, although there was a petition to have Joaquin Phoenix say it in 2019's Joker.
This re-cut film of 2017's Justice League will feature around 150 minutes of unseen footage and "about four minutes of five minutes of additional photography."
[widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=justice-league-snyder-cut-all-the-known-differences-from-the-theatrical-version&captions=true"]
Furthermore, Zack Snyder's Justice League will be rated R, which is a jump from the original's PG-13 rating.
While it was once thought that Zack Snyder's Justice League would be released as a four-part miniseries, this new cut will actually be released as a four-hour movie on HBO Max.
Zack Snyder was directing the original Justice League until he had to leave the project due to a family tragedy, and Joss Whedon stepped in to finish the film. The film was significantly changed and many called for the release of the "Snyder Cut." That dream is now close to being a reality.

Zelda Remake Studio Grezzo Is Hiring for a ‘Medieval’ and ‘Stylish’ Project
Grezzo, the Japanese game development studio known for such games as the Switch remake of The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and the 3DS versions of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, is hiring for a new "medieval" and "stylish" project.
As spotted by Nintendo Everything and verified by IGN Japan, there are currently three job openings - one programmer and two designers - and they tease that Grezzo is looking to develop a game that won't necessarily be photorealistic, but aims to have a stylish take on reality.
[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="1125"]
A possible tease of Grezzo's next project?[/caption]
Besides the previously mentioned Zelda games, Grezzo also worked on The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition, The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes, StreetPass Garden, the 3DS version of Luigi's Mansion, and much more.
The studio has also developed two games - Arc of Alchemist and The Alliance Alive HD Remastered - that weren't exclusive to a Nintendo platform and also appeared on PS4.
In 2017, Grezzo released an original IP known as Ever Oasis. In our review, we said "Ever Oasis combines town building and RPG adventuring to make almost every aspect enjoyable."

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening remake was released in 2019, and in our review, we said "Updating the look but never losing the feel of the original, Link’s Awakening is a masterclass in remaking a classic."

Spiritfarer: Three Free Updates with Four Adorable Spirits Arriving in 2021
Thunder Lotus Games has released Spirtfarer's development roadmap for 2021, and it includes three free updates, four new adorable spirits, and much more.
As detailed on a blog by Thunder Lotus, the first of the three updates is called Lily and will arrive in Spring 2021.
This update will bring with it quality of life improvements and an improved co-op system with a brand new UI and co-op fishing. Stella is also getting a bit more story content.
[ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/08/19/spiritfarer-launch-trailer"]
"As Stella is getting more familiar with the job of Spiritfaring, she starts to uncover some of her memories, which are starting to blossom as wondrous flowers over her cabin," The blog reads. "These flowers house butterflies that roost to form our new spirit friend : Lily, Stella’s younger sister."
Lily, who is obviously the new spirit for this update, is the only spirit that is active during night. "Just as she had been a shining presence in her big sister’s life, here she illuminates the night and lets you navigate your boat even when it’s dark."
The Beverly update, which will be released in Summer 2021, adds new boat buildings, collectibles, recipes, and quality of life improvements. Beverly is the new spirit and is an old neighbor of Stella. She has been feeling lonely and is happy to finally have someone to talk to about the past.
The new station to be introduced is called the Archive Room and will allow players to inspect the new type of collectible known as Acetate Sheets.
The final update for 2021 is called the Jackie & Daria Update and will be released in the Fall. This update will include a new island to explore, new boat buildings and resources, and a new event.
The new island houses a run-down hospital and two new spirits. The spirits are an overworked caretaker named Jackie and their patient Daria. Stella is happy to lend a hand and help both of them.
We called Spiritfarer the best adventure/puzzle game of 2020. In our review of Spirtfarer, we said it "is a gorgeous mix of an action-platformer and an Animal Crossing-style town manager that stands out as one of the most unique and enjoyable games I’ve played all year."

NBC’s Young Rock Casts its 1980s Vince McMahon and Randy Savage
With Young Rock, the NBC bio-series about the formative years of wrestler and blockbuster movie star Dwayne "The Rock Johnson, about to premiere on Tuesday, February 16, additional casting has been announced for the roles of an 80s-era WWF owner Vince McMahon and late wrestling great "Macho Man" Randy Savage.
According to The Wrap, comedian Adam Ray (Spy, The Heat) is playing McMahon while Kevin Makely (2019's Badland) is playing Savage.
Click here to see Ray and Makely as their iconic 80s wrestling characters.
[widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=dwayne-the-rock-johnsons-10-best-movies&captions=true"]
Previous to this, it had been announced that Matthew Willig was playing Andre the Giant, Nate Jackson was Junkyard Dog, and Brett Azar was The Iron Sheik. Since Johnson grew up in the wrestling business, with pro-wrestlers on both sides of his family -- his dad, Rocky Johnson (played by Joseph Lee Anderson), and his mom's Samoan dynasty family tree -- much of Johnson's childhood was spent with these larger-than-life personalities. Below you'll find the official show descriptions for Vince McMahon and Randy Savage:
Vince McMahon
Bold, ambitious and quickly rising through the ranks of his father’s company, the future WWE Chairman and Owner is a great friend and supporter of Lia’s and a trusted confidant when things get difficult for her with a rival.
“Macho Man” Randy Savage
One of the all-time greats, the Macho Man is known for his larger-than-life style and outsized personality both in and out of the ring. At only 10 years old, young Dewey was enamored with his unmatched wrestling ability and unique promotional flair and knew immediately he wanted to be just like him when he grew up. His originality and unforgettable catchphrases were a huge influence on him. Ooooh yeah!
