If you unlock Persona 5 Royal’s true ending, you get an extra month to work on Haru’s Confidant, so it’s worth getting to know Maruki, Akechi, and Kasumi Yoshizawa earlier in the year. As with all Confidants in Persona 5 Royal, you can, and should, boost your relationship with Haru faster if you include a Persona of the matching Arcana – Empress, for Haru – during rank up events. This guide uses point values for answers with a matching Persona in your roster, so adjust the point value down by 1 if you don’t have one on hand....

According to market analyst Sensor Tower, Pokemon Go made $894 million in revenue in 2019. This is the game’s highest for a single year, beating its 2016 launch madness. Of course, Pokemon Go wasn’t available for the entirety of 2016, so these numbers could have been even higher....

According to Niantic, it is shifting back to a three-hour event because apparently only 5% of players particpate for more than three hours. Also, the company said people aren’t out and about at the same time with the longer event, which apparently doesn’t foster a sense of community as less people are around at the same time to “play together and connect outside.” “In 2020, we doubled the length of our Community Day events, extending them from three hours to six,” said Niantic....

Remember when we got The Witcher 3 on Switch and it was like magic? How the hell did we get such a beautiful, expansive RPG on a handheld? The answer was this: compromise.

Despite all that, it’s still a miracle and it works well on the Switch’s small screen....
