Minecraft is giving away a pack of five Superman themed skins for free

While you can painstakingly recreate your favorite videogame, comic, or movie character yourself in Minecraft, sometimes you just want the convenience of grabbing a skin pack from the marketplace. If you’re lucky, you may even find some freebies, and in celebration of the new Superman movie, Minecraft has just released yet another free skin pack for you to take advantage of. Containing five skins depicting core characters from the movie, including Superman himself, it’s available to grab right now.

With iconic Warhammer 40k player – I mean, actor – Henry Cavill stepping away from the Superman suit, it’s time for David Corenswet to take up the mantle. Releasing this weekend, the new Superman movie will, ironically, be going toe to toe with A Minecraft Movie to be one of this year’s biggest new releases. Despite the competition, Mojang is down to celebrate the return of Superman on the big screen with some new Minecraft skins.

Conveniently called the ‘Superman Skin Pack,’ it contains incredibly detailed skins for Superman, Lois Lane, Mister Terrific, Hawkgirl, and the Green Lantern, with the designs based on their appearance in the new film. Put together by the prolific team at Oreville Studios, the titular hero himself is definitely the highlight, but if you’re a particular fan of these other DC characters then you’re in for a treat as well.

The Superman Skin Pack is available to claim for free from the Minecraft marketplace right now. Head here if you want to grab it.

It sounds like this is just the beginning for Mojang’s support of the Superman movie. “Stay tuned for the Superman DLC coming soon!” the developer teases in an announcement post. While this will likely involve splurging some Minecoins, rather than getting everything for free, this will no doubt be of interest to all you DC fans out there.

This is all coming off the back of a rather momentous occasion for Minecraft – the debut of copper golems. Once a Mob Vote loser, these cute little bots are now one of the most helpful additions the game has seen to date. Plus, copper is now a gear tier for armor, tools, and weapons, giving newer players more options when it comes to enhancing their items.

After five tumultuous years, Ubisoft’s Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake is now “deep” in development

It’s now been five years since Ubisoft’s beleaguered Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake was originally revealed, and a little over a year since the publisher last popped up to remind us all the project was still alive. But here we are again, 12 months on, with another brief update, this time letting fans know the remake remains “deep” in development.

Ubisoft’s Sands of Time remake was initially unveiled back in September 2020, when it was expected to arrive in January the following year. However, after its announcement trailer was met with a less than positive reception, Ubisoft kicked off what would prove to be a succession of delays. Eventually, the project moved from its original developers Ubisoft Pune and Mumbai to Ubisoft Montreal, where it was seemingly rebooted from scratch, and last year brought the news it wouldn’t be ready for release until 2026.

But while it seemed like Ubisoft might opt for radio silence until its remake was finally ready for its big re-reveal, the publisher has instead shared the briefest of updates today on social media, a little over a year since its last one. “Yep, we’re still deep in the game,” it wrote, “exploring, building, and ensuring the sands move with purpose.”

Here’s what the Sands of Time remake looked like before it was rebooted from scratch.Watch on YouTube

“This game is being crafted by a team that truly cares,” it continued, “and they’re pouring their hearts (and a lot of coffee) into every step. Thank you for sticking with us.” And that’s pretty much all we’re getting for now, aside from an accompanying bit of art showing a glass palace against a pink sky. Ubisoft also pointed fans in the direction of series spin-off The Rogue Prince of Persia, from Dead Cells studio Evil Empire, which is set to leave early access this August.

Ubisoft’s Sands of Time remake woes have continued to a tumultuous few years for the publisher, which has faced tumbling share prices and a number of high-profile flops in recent times, resulting in a string of layoffs and studio closures. As part of its attempts to right the ship, Ubisoft announced it was launching a new subsidiary dedicated to its big three IPs – Assassin’s Creed, Rainbow Six, and Far Cry – earlier this year. With those game under a new banner, Ubisoft itself will concentrate on a number of key areas, including “nurturing the development of iconic franchises”, including – presumably – Prince of Persia.

Complete Five Nights Hunted Skill & Ability Tier List

There are two main customization features to rank and these are Roblox Five Nights Hunted skills and abilities. Skills are for survivors and enchants/abilities are for killers so I’m going to take you through them all and arrange them from best to worst. Here’s our Five Nights Hunted skill and ability/enchant tier list.

Five Nights Hunted Ability/Enchant Tier List

The best abilities or enchants in Five Nights Hunted are in S-Tier. That said, since the enchant/ability system is tied to a specific killer, I would look at A and B-Tiers as well depending on the killer you like to play. I wouldn’t use C and D options because they’re simply underpowered. Below you’ll find ranking reasons for each ability/enchant in detail and who they belong to.

S-Tier Abilities/Enchants

Ability/Enchant	Ranking Reason	Effect
Springlocked (0.49%) Lvl 50+ Springtraps Only	This is the best ability in Five Nights Hunted but you have to have the Springtrap skin and be Level 50 with him. It essentially saves you having to two-hit on a survivor and it’s on an incredibly low cooldown.	Your attack instantly knocks down a survivor. 20 second cooldown.
Sugar Crash (0.49%) Lvl 50+ Chicas Only	This is tied for the best ability in the game with Springlocked because it’s a ranged AOE ability that can hit multiple survivors. Incredibly strong due to the slowing effect and saving you an additional hit every once in a while depending on survivor HP. Best of all it’s homing.	Throw a homing projectile at a nearby survivor to damage and slow them and nearby survivors as well.
Short Circuit (0.49%) Lvl 50+ Endo 01 and 02 Only	While it’s a drastically longer cooldown than Springlocked this shuts down survivor progression instantly. It’s incredibly strong to slow the game down for survivors and the best part is that it has great range. Much better than Circuit Breaker.	Reset the progress of the nearest terminal. 90 second cooldown.
Final Stand (0.98%)	This ability is only S-Tier with the Tier 3 version. This is the best common ability in the game and overall it’s amazing for clutching a round as a killer. You need to learn a map’s Escape doors for this to work and once you do you can sprint incredibly fast and catch any remaining survivors.	When all terminals are done gain a: • Tier 1: 10% sprint speed boost. • Tier 2: 20% sprint speed boost. • Tier 3: 30% sprint speed boost.

A-Tier Abilities/Enchants

Ability/Enchant	Ranking Reason	Effect
Mangled (0.49%) Lvl 50+ Mangles Only	This would be the best ability in Five Nights Hunted if players weren’t able to dodge it. Skilled players will know how to dodge but you can still farm a lot of levels on early to mid-skill players by instantly grabbing them and capturing them.	Grab the nearest survivor within 50 studs. 30 second cooldown.
Amplified Fear (0.49%) Lvl 50+ Bonnies Only	This is a weaker version of Sugar Crash because it’s a melee skill around you but it’s still incredible. You just have to approach the survivors and then you can catch them without sprinting.	Fire a shockwave around you that slows nearby survivors.
Vengeance (0.49%) Lvl 50+ Purple Guys Only	This is an amazing ability to down multiple survivors at the same time if they don’t heal right away or don’t escape. Just be careful if you’re going for multiple downed survivors that your first one doesn’t get up an leave.	Passive that deals AOE damage around a survivor you down within 35 studs.

B-Tier Abilities/Enchants

Ability/Enchant	Ranking Reason	Effect
Silent Steps (0.49%) Lvl 50+ Marionettes Only	A decent option if you want to play Marionette that allows you to be more stealthy. Works best when combined with an unlocked camera to peak around corners.	Silence your footsteps and remove survivor camera shake when you’re nearby for: • Tier 1: 5 seconds. • Tier 2: 9 seconds. • Tier 3: 13 seconds. 30 second cooldown.
Circuit Breaker (0.49%) Lvl 50+ Foxies Only	The worse version of Short Circuit above but still an okay option if you like playing with the Foxy skin.	You can strike terminals and temporarily disable them.
Brute Force (4%)	Not a flashy ability/enchant but still a decent one if you don’t have anything better. Works the best against more experienced players who play around doors a lot.	Open doors faster: • Tier 1: 10% faster. • Tier 2: 20% faster. • Tier 3: 30% faster.
Listening Mode (3%)	Quite useful for beginner killers to find survivors more quickly. You just have to stand still to activate this. Note that both you and the survivor are notified when revealed so they’ll know you’re coming.	Stand still to activate a pulse that reveals and highlights nearby survivors doing terminals: • Tier 1: Highlight lasts 1 second. • Tier 2: Highlight lasts 2 second. • Tier 3: Highlight lasts 3 second.

C-Tier Abilities/Enchants

Ability/Enchant	Ranking Reason	Effect
Marked One (0.49%) Lvl 50+ Freddies Only	Very situational since experienced survivors will usually spread out.	When you strike a survivor, nearby survivors are also highlighted and revealed for a short duration.

D-Tier Abilities/Enchants

Ability/Enchant	Ranking Reason	Effect
Rescue Signal (10%)	This is one of the worst/useless abilities/enchants in Five Nights Hunted because you can just check the survivor list and it’ll say if a survivor is captured/released. In time you’ll get good at tracking capture point locations so you’ll know where rescued survivors are.	Reveals ball pit location when a survivor is rescued. • Tier 1: Highlight lasts 1 second. • Tier 2: Highlight lasts 2 second. • Tier 3: Highlight lasts 3 second.
Predators Trail (30%)	Not the best enchant/ability since you’ll most likely see where the survivor is going anyway. Only useful in tight corridors and the maze level if you’re attacking multiple survivors but even then it’s lackluster.	Striking a survivor highlights and reveals their footsteps: • Tier 1: Highlight lasts 1 second. • Tier 2: Highlight lasts 2 second. • Tier 3: Highlight lasts 3 second.
Dim Presence (50%)	The idea behind this enchant/ability is great but the glow reduction is so minor even at Tier 3 that it isn’t really useful at all.	Reduces your glow making it harder for survivors to spot you: • Tier 1: 10% glow reduction. • Tier 2: 20% glow reduction. • Tier 3: 30% glow reduction..

Five Nights Hunted Skill Tier List

Second up, here are the best skills in Five Nights Hunted for survivors. Only one skill is useless and that one is in D-Tier but the rest are all useful with some being more powerful the better you are at the game. That said, you’re stuck at starting with Guiding Light and Adrenaline on start so you’ll need to grind a bit for the others. I highly recommend going left for Guiding Light and then Lone Survivor. That said, let’s analyze each skill separately and talk about its ranking reason. Note that Tiers from the same skill don’t stack, you just get the highest one.

S-Tier FNH Skills

Skill	Ranking Reason	Cost & Effects
Lone Survivor (Top Left)	This is the best survivor skill in Five Nights Hunted because it all comes down to finishing terminals and escaping on time. In public games you’ll always have teammates who get captured early and get eliminated or leave. Sometimes you can’t even rescue them in the later stages of the game and they get eliminated. This also works when players leave providing you with a massive boost to decoding speed. I would rush to this in the top left after Guiding Light.	• Tier 1 (10 Skill Points): Terminal decoding speed increases by 20% with each eliminated survivor. • Tier 2 (15 Skill Points): Terminal decoding speed increases by 50% with each eliminated survivor. • Tier 3 (20 Skill Points): Terminal decoding speed increases by 80% with each eliminated survivor.

A-Tier FNH Skills

Skill	Ranking Reason	Cost & Effects
Adrenaline Boost (Middle Right)	This is always a powerful skill for survivors to pull of clutch rescues and get away. Especially if the killer has the Rescue Signal enchant. You can drop in, rescue, and retreat to fix a terminal or save another teammate. The killer will hate you.	• Tier 1 (5 Skill Points): Gain a 3-second speed boost after a successful rescue. • Tier 2 (15 Skill Points): Gain a 5-second speed boost after a successful rescue. • Tier 3 (20 Skill Points): Gain a 7-second speed boost after a successful rescue.
Healing Hands (Top Right)	This is an amazing skill that will slow down the rate at which survivors drop. You just need to retreat somewhere safe to heal your teammate but the speed will be drastically increased at Tier 3 so rush to Tier 3 if you’re using this.	• Tier 1 (10 Skill Points): Heal teammates 10% faster. • Tier 2 (15 Skill Points): Heal teammates 25% faster • Tier 3 (20 Skill Points): Heal teammates 50% faster

B-Tier FNH Skills

Skill	Ranking Reason	Cost & Effects
Guiding Light (Middle Left)	This is an A or S-Tier skill for beginners who don’t know where terminals are on each map. Max it to Tier 2 and leave it there as a beginner since Tier 3 isn’t cost-effective so you should just save your skill points and go to Lone Survivor once you learn terminal locations on each map. Once you know the locations, this becomes a useless Skill.	• Tier 1 (5 Skill Points): The last 2 terminals are highlighted in blue across the map. • Tier 2 (15 Skill Points): The last 3 terminals are highlighted in blue across the map. • Tier 3 (20 Skill Points): Each time a terminal is finished, all other available terminals are temporarily highlighted.
Third Eye (Bottom Left)	This is an incredibly powerful skill but only in the late-game and for escaping. It’s not as widely useful for the entire game which is why it’s in B-Tier. Still, being able to see the killer through walls at the end is incredibly useful but I would probably still go for Lone Survivor because it’s more flexible.	• Tier 1 (10 Skill Points): When all terminals are finished, reveals killer for 5 seconds. • Tier 2 (15 Skill Points): When all terminals are finished, reveals killer for 10 seconds. • Tier 3 (20 Skill Points): When all terminals are finished, reveals killer for 15 seconds.

D-Tier FNH Skills

Skill	Ranking Reason	Cost & Effects
Hidden Charge (Bottom Right)	This is an ultra beginner skill that I would never go for because you’ll get good at skill checks after like 1 game and this will become useless.	• Tier 1 (10 Skill Points): Failing a skill check doesn’t alert the killer once. 1 Use. • Tier 2 (15 Skill Points): Failing a skill check doesn’t alert the killer. 2 Uses. • Tier 3 (20 Skill Points): Failing a skill check doesn’t alert the killer. 3 Uses.

Five Nights Hunted Killer Tier List

Lastly, let’s rank the best Killers/Skins in Five Nights Hunted taking into account the skin group for the purpose of the ability/enchant they get. This means that I’m just considering what ability each skin group gets, not the visual/aesthetic quality of each skin. For example, for the purposes of this tier list Freddies are Bling Freddy, Soul Freddy, etc., Endoes are Endo 01 and Endo 02, Chicas is Toy Chica, Soul Chica, etc. Here are all base killers ranked according to their ability/enchant which you can read more about above to see why they’re ranked the way they are here.

Tiers	Killers & Abilities/Enchants (Check out each ability/enchant above)
S-Tier	Springtrap (Springlocked), Chica (Sugar Crash), Endos (Short Circuit)
A-Tier	Mangle (Mangled), Purple Guys (Vengeance), Bonnie (Amplified Fear)
B-Tier	Marionettes (Silent Steps), Foxies (Circuit Breaker)
C-Tier	Freddies (Marked One)
