Why seek human comfort when you could have a gigantic Mountain Dew body pillow instead? That's right, Mountain Dew is taking its marketing to a new, comfortable level with a humongous body pillow modeled after the sugary, high-fueled soft drink. Do you need one? No. Should you get one anyway? Absolutely. 

The body pillow is officially licensed and is meant to be perfectly designed after an actual bottle of the drink. Do the Dew without the actual drink itself, because there is no hard cap on obsession and technically this is one of the unofficial-yet-official Gamer Drinks Of Choice™.

“The Dew Body Pillow is a larger-than-life replica of a Mountain Dew bottle, perfect for those cold, winter nights when all you need is the comfort of your Mountain Dew to give you those warm, fuzzy feelings,” says an official press release about the latest Mountain Dew piece of memorabilia. 

Real talk? I'd rock this. My husband might want to murder me, but it'd look pretty swanky next to my Garrus body pillow because who needs self respect when you have comfort like this? 

The official Mountain Dew store will be offering the new pillow sometime in March, though an exact date hasn't been given yet. Regardless, when it arrives, we'll always know that our plushy Mountain Dew pillow is there to carry us through these trying times.

Fuse, Apex Legends’ latest playable character, is launching alongside Season 8 Mayhem next month. A new repeater rifle and Kings Canyon changes look to breathe new life into the popular battle royale's intense and fast-paced action. However, a long-requested Apex Legends wish might be fulfilled next month too: There’s a chance that the game could be coming to Nintendo Switch.

BREAKING: The Japanese version on YouTube states Apex Legends is coming to Switch on February 2.

According to the Apex Legends News Twitter account, the Japanese version of Fuse’s “Tales from the Outlands” trailer that was uploaded to YouTube contains an exciting statement in the description banner that reads, “And on February 2, it will be possible to play on Switch at the same time as the start of Season 8!” In that same thread, a commenter added that the Spanish version of the video has the same announcement. However, in the English video, that sentence doesn’t appear at all. You can see the tweet above. 

Nevertheless, it seems as if Season 8 will be a fittingly definitive moment for Apex Legends’ two-year anniversary next month. What do you think about the possibility of Apex Legends coming to Nintendo Switch? Would you play it on Nintendo's hybrid console? Sound off with your thoughts in the comments below! 

Tokens are a huge motivating factor behind the PvP of Destiny 2, but as Beyond Light continues its progression from season to season, new changes are coming in for how the game operates. Bungie is warning players to go ahead and use up their tokens now before the arrival of season 13 because the new season will render them as good as garbage. 

Vendor tokens are a way for Guardians to cash in on their efforts, turning them in for loot, quest steps, or just weapon parts fodder. These tokens are also vital to acquiring Legendary gear for the loot itself or to farm for Legendary Shards. While tokens are going away here shortly, the change is actually fan-requested, and signals the return of a more direct rewards system. 

Rewards area lead Justin Dazet took to the Bungie Blog to update players on where tokens are heading and why the change. 

When talking about the changes to rewards, Dazet confirmed that the areas affected will be Crucible and Gambit, as well as Strikes. While only Crucible and Gambit are PvP-centric (with Strikes falling securely in the PvE space), the vendor tokens act much in the same way for all three player activities. According to Dazet, "We’ll be adding two new unique weapon rewards to each of the three playlist rituals (so six total across all three activities). These weapons are in addition to the ones added in Season of the Hunt, and continue to have a small chance to drop at the end of each activity."

The coming season allows for rewards to be visible on ritual vendors – with each season offering its own row of rewards and progression towards playlist completion. The change also means that rank rewards won't be automatically dropped in a player's loot stream. Instead, now they are available to pick up straight from the vendor. The purpose of this change is to increase visibility for what Guardians are earning and what they are working towards. 

Dazet says that progression is moving into a per-ritual basis, meaning players can be Rank 10 for Crucible and Rank 4 for Gambit and that valor resets will now be done through the corresponding vendors in order to secure the final reward: 

  • Rank 4: 3x Upgrade Modules 
  • Rank 7: 3x Enhancement Cores 
  • Rank 10: Seasonal Ritual Shader (changes to 3x Enhancement Cores after resetting your rank) 
  • Rank 13: 2x Enhancement Prisms 
  • Rank 16: Seasonal Ritual Emblem (changes to 2x Enhancement Prisms after resetting your rank) 
  • Reset Reward: Ascendant Shard (changes to Exotic Engram after resetting your rank) 

In addition to the usual Ritual Engram, each rank will also include a Prime Ritual Engram as well. With a few tweaks on the way, tokens and token gifts will no longer be a necessary aspect of Destiny 2. Bungie urges players to spend them before the new season starts because they will soon become obsolete and as good as trash.
