Firefly is Honkai Star Rail Version 2.3's first officially confirmed playable character, who has already appeared as an NPC - and quite a memorable one - in the main story.



Firefly in Honkai Star Rail: Element & Path



Firefly is a 5-Star Fire character on the path of Destruction. We can expect good survivability from her and highly damaging abilities — Firefly is a DPS character.



This young girl was born as a weapon, and she suffers from Entropy Loss Syndrome, caused by a genetic modification. These circumstances can’t break Firefly, though. She joins the Stellaron Hunters to dig deep into the very meaning of life. Moreover, Firefly hopes to change her destiny and abandons her predetermined path.



Firefly is an upcoming 5-Star Fire character in Honkai Star Rail



The first glimpse at Honkai Star Rail Firefly was possible thanks to the Version 2.0 Music Trailer. Then, the character appeared in the Trailblaze Missions, Chapter 3: Penacony Subquests. Firefly tried to run away from the Bloodhound Family, and the Trailblaze saved her. They spent some time together, and Firefly confessed to having Entropy Loss Syndrome.



Firefly on the cover of the Honkai Star Rail 2.0 OST







Those were sweet moments in Honkai: Star Rail 2.0, but soon they were over. Something Unto Death, or simply Death, killed Firefly. Version 2.1 reversed emotions of that tragic episode . We discovered that Firefly returns from the dead. It also was a moment of revealing her true identity — she is in fact a person in the mechanical armor "SAM"!



The story of Firefly in Honkai: Star Rail got a positive response in the hearts of game fans. Her reveal as a playable character in Version 2.3 caused much excitement in the community.

Firefly's expected Honkai Star Rail release date is during Phase 1 of Version 2.3 in mid-June.

The Quick Weapon Draw feature in Fortnite has been a big hit for controller competitors since it was first released years ago. But now, it seems like many are finding that the recent update to the game might have renewed the feature.



So did Fortnite get rid of Quick Weapon Draw?



Is Quick Weapon Draw still in Fortnite?



The big question many people are asking is whether or not the Quick Weapon Draw feature is still in Fortnite. 



While the update seems to have removed the option for controller players, it seems like this was a mistake on Epic's end. Luckily, many have confirmed on Reddit and Twitter that they had contacted Epic Support and Quick Weapon Draw is being added back into the game as soon as possible. 



Hopefully, we see the feature added back into the game by the end of the day, but it could take a little longer than some may hope for. 



What is Quick Weapon Draw?



Curious as to what Quick Weapon Draw in Fortnite is? Well, if you are a keyboard and mouse player, then this is something you are already accustomed to. For the longest time, controller players didn't have the luxury of pulling out whatever weapon or item they wanted on command. 



Originally, only keyboard and mouse players were able to press a button and immediately have a shotgun or AR. With controller, you would have to shuffle through items using L and R. Obviously, this put controller players at a huge disadvantage.







Eventually, Fortnite released the Quick Weapon Draw feature for controller players. What this feature does it allow players to bind specific weapon slots to specific weapons. Want to pull out your shotgun immediately? Press X. Want to pull out an AR on command? Press Y. 



You get the picture.



With this being out of the game again, many are having to adjust back to the old days while they wait for the feature to get added back. Hopefully, Fortnite will fix it sooner than later.



Stay tuned to esports.gg for more Fortnite and esports news.

Riot Games has announced two bugs they've found within their first-person shooter, VALORANT. The first deals with Cypher's Trapwire still appearing on his teammates' map after dying. The other deals with an exploit on one of VALORANT's maps, Split.



Per the announcement, Patch 8.08 will see a fix for both of these bugs. Cypher remains playable in all modes, but Split is being removed from matchmaking until the issue has been resolved.



Unknown exploit on Split sees its removal from VALORANT matchmaking and Premier




Recently we’ve discovered two different bugs, one with Cypher’s Trapwire, which shows his Trapwires on the minimap of his teammates after he has died, and the other an exploit on Split. We will be shipping a fix for both of them in Patch 8.08. Until then, Cypher will still be…— VALORANT (@VALORANT) April 24, 2024




The Cypher bug is just a visual error. The Split issue in VALORANT, however, seems to be a much bigger problem. While Riot Games did not detail exactly what the exploit is, they have made the decision to remove Split from the game for the time being.



Players have commented on the X post with assumptions as to what the exploit is. It has not been confirmed, but many believe it has to do with new locations high up on the map that the likes of Jett and Raze can jump to.



VALORANT players believe this is the Split exploit in question (Image via Riot Games)



It won't be long until it returns, though. The most recent update for the game arrived on April 16. They roll out patches on a biweekly basis for VALORANT, thus placing Split back in the rotation come Patch 8.08 on April 30.



There are some adjustments that have to happen with its removal. Split is still available in custom games, but is gone from Competitive, Unrated, Swiftplay, Spike Rush, and Premier.



Premier's Week  7 map for Episode 8 Act 2 was meant to be Split. Riot Games will replace it with the first week's map, Ascent. They are also taking Split out of the

Season 21 of Apex Legends is fast approaching and an explosive teaser involving Olympus is catching player's attention. Recently in Apex Legends players could see Olympus sticking out of a portal in the sky. An additional recent loading screen shows Olympus seemingly exploding. 



We'll break down here what this teaser is and what the most popular theories are for what it could mean for the Apex Games.




What just happened over Broken Moon..? byu/osborne1992 inapexlegends




Olympus explodes over Broken Moon



Olympus isn’t the only map in peril. A recently released loading screen shows a breaking news story, titled “Disaster over Cleo”. The image shows a huge explosion with Olympus right in the center, potentially barreling down to collide with Cleo’s moon. Cleo’s moon is the location of Broken Moon, so this could impact multiple maps in Apex Legends.




New teaser loadscreen reward is available now pic.twitter.com/mSXUzrqCNP— KralRindo (@kralrindo) April 23, 2024




What exactly is happening to the floating city? We’ll break down some theories on Olympus’s fate and how it might impact Broken Moon.



Theories about the portal



Alter



The most likely reason for Olympus’s new teleporting act is Alter. We can’t be sure exactly why Alter may be messing with the floating city, but based on her leaked information, we can assume she’s in some way involved. Alter's leaked abilities are centered around portals and voids. Since Olympus is currently sticking out of a giant floating portal, we can tie these pieces of information together.






Plus, her leaked appearance just makes her look like a fan of chaos. Just a guess.



Alter, as seen in leaked images (Image via @Osvaldatore on Twitter)



Obviously, the fact that Alter would likely come out next season which this teaser is, well, teasing for makes for a compelling argument that the two are connected.

With the review embargo lifted on Stellar Blade, media website IGN came across graffiti in-game that when looked at next to each other appeared to read the phrase "Hard R". The term itself, while maybe harmless to the world at large, is considered a racist slur in particular in North America.  Sony quickly addressed the issue, calling it "unintentional" and announcing it would be patched. 




"The placement of two graphics near each other in Stellar Blade resulted in an unintentional objectionable phrase. Shift Up had no intention of creating offensive artwork and will be replacing the graffiti for the Day 1 patch."

What was the "Hard R" graffiti about in Stellar Blade?

Stellar Blade has a character who runs a shop as an information broker in-game. This character, called Roxanne, runs the "R Shop". The R Shop sign has a large R with the word shop written underneath it. Right next to it is graffiti that says the word "Hard". Unfortunately for the developers it visually came across as a "Hard R", which evokes a references to a racial slur, particularly in North America. Reviewers pointed out this unintentionally racist graffiti on Twitter, prompting backlash towards the game.
