PSA: You Can Now Reserve Your WoW Classic Character Name
Blizzard has now opened up reservations for character names in World of Warcraft Classic, the next iteration (and a sort of remake of its glory days) of its iconic MMO, according to Eurogamer.
If you want to reserve your character name, you’ll need to have an active WoW subscription or play time on your account. Then you can create up to three characters per account and reserve a name for them. Simple enough, and plenty of nostalgia to collect upon if you’re trying to make an old character you use to play as.

You’ll Be Able to Play All Future Quantic Dream Games on Multiple Platforms
Every game made by Quantic Dream going forward will be multiplatform, says the studio's founder and head David Cage.
Despite not being a Sony first-party studio, Quantic Dream is known for producing PlayStation exclusives. Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls, and most recently Detroit: Become Human were all initially launched as PlayStation exclusives, and are only now coming to PC this year. However, David Cage told Dualshockers that his team now wants to “work on different platforms and reach players all around the world.”
He said, “Quantic Dream is not exclusive to any platform anymore. So yes, unless there are some specific exclusivity deals on a title-by-title basis, all our games will be released on all platforms at launch.”
Marvel’s Tale of Two Thors Redefines What It Means to Be Worthy
Marvel Comics writer Jason Aaron has been telling a Thor story so grand and epic that it’s taken over seven years to complete. While it doesn’t reach its grand finale until the end of 2019, it’s already been deemed one of the best comic book runs of all time, superhero or otherwise. Its narrative strength comes from a complex structure that allows the story to unfold across multiple timelines and its overall meditation on what it means to be worthy. As we all know, Thor is a mighty god and bold hero who smashes armies and saves worlds, all because he’s worthy to wield a weapon of astonishing power. But what if something happens that makes him unworthy to lift his trusty hammer, Mjolnir? What is left of the character when his worthiness fails? This is the question at the core of Aaron’s story that he explores to deliver the most brutal, honest and epic Thor tale of all time.
