In Anime Fantasy: RE, there are more than 80 units you can get, and half of them have Evolutions, which boost their strength even further. However, with that many units available, it isn’t easy to choose which ones to grind for. To help you summon new units and focus your grind where it matters, we prepared the following Anime Fantasy: RE tier list.
Anime Fantasy: RE Tier List
All Mythic, Exclusive, and Secret Anime Fantasy: RE Units ranked from best to worst — Image via TierMaker
In the above tier list, we ranked all units in Anime Fantasy: RE based on how strong they are when evolved and upgraded to their max level. We decided not to include unevolved units in the tier list because all evolutions are just better versions of the same units. Now, the ranking of each unit is based on the following factors:
DPS (Damage/SPA)
SPA (Seconds per attack)— For support units
Range and AoE type and size — We gave a slight advantage to full AoE units because they are optimal for dealing with a lot of enemies at once
All units available on the Special Banner in Anime Fantasy: RE ranked from best to worst — Image via TierMaker
A large number of Units on our overall Anime Fantasy: RE tier list can’t be obtained on the Special Banner. So, we made a simplified tier list of Mythic units that can be on the rate-up every hour. In general, you should use Gems to summon on the Special Banner only when S or A-tier mythics are in the middle of it.

Fruit Powers in Universal Piece are everyone’s first DPS tool of choice. Why? Well, because they are so easy to get at the beginning. However, that doesn’t make them any less powerful in the late game. To help you choose which Fruit Powers to aim for when grinding and rolling, we prepared the following Universal Piece Fruit Power tier list.
Universal Piece Fruit Power Tier List
All Fruit Powers in Universal Piece ranked from best to worst — Image via TierMaker.
In the tier list above, we ranked all Fruit Powers in Universal Piece based on their DPS, range, AoE, CC, and overall power both early and later on. In general, rare Fruit Powers are stronger because they also come with more Skills. You can see the reasoning for our rankings in the list further below.
Universal Piece Fruit Power List
In total, there are four rarity tiers of Fruit Powers in Universal Piece. Rarer ones have lower roll chances on the Power Gacha, and some are only obtainable through special means.

Below is a list of all Fruit Powers in Universal Piece with their pros and cons, sorted by their ranking on the tier list.
How to Get New Fruit Powers in Universal Piece

In Wagarashi, there are several Skill trees into which you can invest your hard-earned Skill points. All of them are viable, and that’s why choosing which one to focus on can be challenging. To help you make the right choice and answer all other questions related to Skill trees and Elements, we prepared the following Wagarashi Element and Skill tree guide.
Wagarashi Skill Trees Explained
In total, there are eight Skill trees in Wagarashi: Earth, Fire, Lightning, Water, Wind, Kenjutsu, Medical, and Tai. By investing Skill points (SP) into these trees, you can unlock special Skills (Jutsus) available through them. Also, every SP increases the effectiveness and the damage of related Skills. With every two Skill points you spend in any tree, you get to choose one new Skill to unlock. And, every five points, you get to pick a new Talent, which grants passive bonuses.
How to Get, Spend, and Reset Skill Points
In the tutorial, you can learn the basics of spending Skill Points in Wagarashi.You can learn a new Skill with every two points spent on any of the Skill trees.
In Wagarashi, you get one Skill point every time you rank up, which you can do by simply gaining XP. To spend your Skill points, use the inventory key and expand the menu on the right using the little arrow on it.
There are multiple ways to reset the Skill points you spent in Wagarashi. Firstly, you can use one of the Wagarashi codes to reset your Skill Points instantly. However, doing this will clear out the items in your quickbar. So, make sure to move items and materials to your inventory before resetting your SP. Next, you can reset your Skill points in the Shop by spending $349 Robux. Lastly, you get a free Skill point reset whenever you change your Clan, either when using codes or Robux to do that.
How to Find Out Your Elemental Affinity
You can buy the Chakra Paper at the Shop NPC in each of the villages.Hold out the Chakra Paper and use it to learn your Elemental affinity.You can see your primary and secondary Elemental affinity in the upper-right corner of the Info panel.
Each character in Wagarashi has an affinity for two random Elements. So, when you use those Elemental Skills, they deal more damage. By using Chakra Paper, you can check your primary and secondary Elemental affinity. Chakra Paper is available at the Shop NPCs in each major Village. Now, unfortunately, the only way to change your Elemental affinity is to reroll it using Robux.
Deciding Which Element Skill Tree to Invest Skill Points In
When deciding which Element Skill tree to invest your Skill points in, there are two things to consider: your Elemental affinities and your Clan. In general, you should first spend your SP on leveling up the Skill tree of your primary Element. Then, invest SP into the Skill tree of your secondary Element, or any other Skill tree you like.
Each of the five basic Elements is associated with a specific Village, just like in the Naruto manga/anime series.
Now, most Clan Skills in Wagarashi are also Elemental-based. So, you can invest points into the Element that matches your Clan. Alternatively, you can save up Skill points until you verify your Elemental affinity. Then, based on what it is, reroll your Clan using codes or Robux until you get a Clan that matches your primary Elemental affinity.
However, ultimately, you will get enough SP to invest in multiple Skill trees. So, it is fine to experiment on your own. As a reference, here is a list of Elemental Skill trees in Wagarashi, their pros and cons, and the SP requirement of the last Skill in each of them.
Because you unlock a new Jutsu only once with every two rank-ups, it will be hard to unlock all of the Skills in Elemental trees like the Earth one. So, it is a good idea to level up a tree until you can unlock the last Skill in it. Then, invest SP into another tree, and the high SP requirement Jutsus from the previous one will appear when choosing which Skill to unlock.

HoYoverse finally announced the Honkai Star Rail x Fate collaboration release date during the second HSR concert, including details about which characters will join the space game’s roster. HSR x Fate kicks off on July 11, 2025, in an event called Sweet Dreams and the Holy Grail, and it adds two new 5-star characters from the Fate series to HSR’s list of playable characters.
One of them is Saber, a 5-star Destruction character with wind as her element. Saber, aka Artoria Pendragon, is one of Fate’s main characters and first debuted in 2004’s Fate/Stay Night. Saber will run for the usual length of time in a limited event banner. The second Fate character in HSR is Archer, another long-time favorite. Archer is a 5-star Hunt character with quantum as his element, and anyone who logs into Honkai Star Rail during Sweet Dreams and the Holy Grail will get him for free.
Get your very own free man for a limited time | Image credit: HoYoverse
HoYoverse said the free Archer giveaway will last through the end of Honkai Star Rail 3.6. Based on the game’s current update calendar, that’d be sometime in November 2025. Assuming the free Archer event is like the time HoYoverse gave Dr Ratio away, you’ll probably only need to be at the story’s beginning, at the point where you unlock the warp function.
Saber will have “exciting” interactions with the Trailblaze crew during the event’s associated story missions. Fate writer Kinoko Nasu penned the crossover event’s story, and artist Takashi Takeuchi created the Honkai Star Rail versions of Archer and Saber.
HoYoverse also teased a new Honkai game during the concert, though had no further information to share at the time.
The Division 2 fans have been waiting for the new Battle for Brooklyn DLC for quite some time. While there’ve been plenty of live service seasons and updates to keep players entertained, it’s been just over five years since the first story expansion landed. That’s made the setbacks and delays it experienced particularly painful, but soon, the wait comes to an end. The Division 2 Battle for Brooklyn release date has been locked in.
Battle for Brooklyn has been pushed back a couple of times now – most recently, it was booted out of Ubisoft’s Year 6 roadmap for The Division 2 and pushed into the upcoming slate for Year 7. Taking players back to some new and familiar New York streets, all with an autumnal atmosphere, the co-op game‘s new expansion has been highly anticipated. Now we know much more about it, and while crisp blue skies, cascading brown leaves, and some relatively peaceful residents may make Battle for Brooklyn seem a bit tame at first, it’s anything but.
Those living at the Bridge settlement have done a pretty good job in rebuilding after the hurricane that ravaged New York in the previous expansion. But they’re still in need of protection, and that’s where you (and some notable characters like Theo Parnell, Agent Hoskins, and Dr. Jessica Kandel) come in.
Your main opposition in Battle of Brooklyn are the Cleaners, who have managed to mass-produce a lethal weapon that some endgame grinders will recognize from the Paradise Lost Incursion mission. Now all wielding the power of the Purple Flame, they can dish out lethal, fiery attacks that also stack on a new status effect, corrosion, which gradually lowers your max armor over time. The longer you stay in battle, the less armor capacity you’ll have when it comes to replenishing it.
Smart Cover also returns from The Division 1 as a reworked skill that will let you pick from either a Precision or Fortified variant, giving different benefits to anyone positioned behind the cover points. Precision Smart Cover provides buffs to weapon handling and damage and auto-reloads your guns after swapping, while Fortified Smart Cover grants you extra armor, resistances, and stagger immunity.
In its reveal stream for Battle of Brooklyn, creative director Yannick Banchereau says that the new DLC will give fans around six to ten hours of playtime – so it’s not a monster. However, there still seems to be plenty packed in, with four new Control Points, 12 overworld activities, eight Hunter Riddles, ten bounty locations, and a new collectible bounties set. As mentioned, we now know when this heavily delayed expansion will be launching.
The Division 2 Battle for Brooklyn DLC release date has been locked in for Tuesday, May 27.
The showcase for the new DLC also shared updates on Year 7 of The Division 2, which aims to massively improve the onboarding process for new players, add more depth to the endgame loop, and further expand its seasonal content offerings.
For more, check out some of the best multiplayer games on PC right now. To plan your gaming schedule around the new expansion for The Division 2, head to our upcoming PC games guide.

Anime Rangers X is the hottest new Roblox tower defense game, and as usual, it’s more fun to talk about the Units than it is to actually play the game. Jokes aside, knowing which units to bring is extremely important, which is exactly why we made this Ultimate Anime Rangers X Unit Tier List.
Anime Rangers X Best Units Tier List
Image by TierMaker / Remix by The Escapist
We considered each unit for this tier list based on its cost, damage, and added ability. Most importantly, we asked ourselves which units we use more than others. We didn’t include every single unit in the game, so if you don’t see the one you like, it’s probably because we didn’t think they were worth adding. You’ll want to switch out every unit below Epic as soon as you can and focus on these best DPS, starter, and Ranged DPS units.
SS-Tier
Unit Name
Info
Limitless Sorcerer (Infinite)
Does amazing damage, can dodge attacks, and has overall great stats. A must-have!
King of Shadows (Monarch)
Its most impressive feat is its extremely quick basic attack, and that’s not even counting its abilities. The ultimate boss destroyer.
Molten Phantom
Amazing for crowd control, great stats, covers a wide area.
Solar Fist
The best DPSes in the game. If you make up for its shortcomings, this unit can carry you through everything in the game.
S-Tier
Unit Name
Info
Eclipse Sorcerer
Put him in the back and watch him snipe units from afar. Pretty handy to have.
Fire Fist
Many consider Fire Fist a meta unit. Pretty good damage and can soak up a good amount.

Somewhat pricey, but very decent damage. Not as good as the Limitless version.
King Curses
Decent damage, decent stats, good ability, and only costs 800. Really great to have.
Shadow Knight
Does okay damage, but it’s a great unit at the very start of the battle due to how cheap it is to summon.
King of Shadows (Basic)
Almost the same as the Monarch version, but not as powerful. Still, a very decent unit.

Info
King Ant
We haven’t heard anyone say a single nice thing about this unit.
Knight King (Basic)
A very meh unit with meh stats and meh damage.
Cursed Fist
Everyone who used this unit says it’s awful, and we agree.

Replace as soon as you can.
