We’re gearing up for summer, so it’s time to start getting the kids signed up for summer swim programs and the like. These tend to either be eye-wateringly expensive or relatively low-cost but run by volunteers. Surprise, the parents are the volunteers. So, me. It’s me. I’m the volunteer. So it is about to be a very splashy summer. Maybe send a rescue party? Preferably made of ducks?

This is The Queue, our daily Q&A column where you ask us questions and we’ll give you the answers as soon as I find a towel.

If you played WoW during early 2026's Legion Remix, you may remember that one of the many features of that particular remix was Heroic World Tier.

It's maintenance day for World of Warcraft, and it's extended maintenance for everybody.

Happy Victoria Day to my fellow Canucks, and only my fellow Canucks. Apparently, we’re the only ones who specifically celebrate Queen Victoria’s birthday. It doesn’t hurt that it lands on a good point to make the unofficial start of Summer, that’s totally just a coincidence. If you don’t have a queen to celebrate today, maybe you could celebrate Sarah Kerrigan, the Queen of Blades. She’s pretty cool and pointy!

Other good options are the Junker Queen, Queen Talanji, Queen Aszhara, Zagara the Zerg Queen, and the Amazon Queen from Skovos.

While I try to think of more Queens to celebrate in Blizzard games, it’s time for our daily question and answer column — The Queue!

Liz went on a well-deserved vacation this week, so you got me back here to write the weekly wrapup again.

Every single run of The Pit in Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred has your character, worried about some unknown marauder supposedly following them, cursing the place for it (no matter which place it is) — but the encounter with this mysterious assailant never actually happens. I don’t get it, man. Since people recently discovered the Secret Cow Level in Diablo 4, maybe the next secret they should devote themselves to is how to find this elusive character who always follows you in The Pit, but never actually shows their face.

This is The Queue, our daily Q&A column where you ask as questions and we answer them because that’s what “Q&A” means, I think. Right? Right. I mean, I *hope* I’m right about this; otherwise I’ve been doing this column all wrong.

Because Cory has the courage to say that, quote, "bugs are bad.

The Burning Crusade Classic Phase 2, styled the Overlords of Outland, launched worldwide on WoW Classic Anniversary realms on May 14, 2026 at 3pm pacific time. This phase continues our adventures in Outland with new content for everyone to experience, so let's take a look at everything that came to TBC Classic anniversary realms on May 14.

I know that Blizzard has a cool new bundle featuring two treehouse-style home exteriors, but we have trees at home. We don’t need to spend $40 (or $75 if we get the bundle with matching accessories) to build a treehouse. We have trees at home!

We have to build them ourselves, but still, we have trees at home.

This is The Queue, our daily Q&A column where sometimes we have to tackle the important topic of treehouses in video games. Let’s get to your questions.

The Epic Games Store is giving away two innovative, unique titles this week -- but sometimes, those words can be used as euphemisms.
