The power of Minecraft extends far beyond the blocky boundaries of its game world. It is obviously an amazing tool for expressing creativity, considering how free you are to shape and build the world into just about anything you can imagine, but it has also allowed for those passionate about the game to launch entire careers off of it. There are people who do "let's plays," show off amazing builds, do challenges, speedrun, and more for millions of fans.

Technoblade was among the top content creators in the Minecraft space, specifically for his skills in the PvP side of things. He was a passionate player who cultivated a fanbase of millions of subscribers to his channel who loved watching him play. Unfortunately, Technobalde passed away due to Sarcoma, which left his family, friends, and community devastated. As a small way to pay respect for all the joy he brought to millions, many want to wear his iconic skin in the game. If you want to pay tribute to this creator who was taken too soon, here's how you can download and use a Technoblade skin in Minecraft.

How to download a Technoblade skin

Outside of the default and official skins in Minecraft, players are able to design and share their own custom skins online for you to download and wear in your own game. The process of locating them and downloading your skin of choice is very simple.

Step 1: Go to a Minecraft skin site such as Minecraft Skins and search for "Technoblade".

Step 2: Select the Technoblade skin, or any of the variations you want, and download them.

How to apply your Technoblade skin in Minecraft

Just downloading a skin won't make it available in your game of Minecraft. To get your custom skins in the game, you need to take a few steps.

Step 1: Go to Minecraft.net and log in to your account.

Step 2: Go to the My games section and select the Java Edition of the game.

Step 3: From here, you will have the option to change your skin.

Step 4: Select the file you downloaded earlier and upload it.

Step 5: The skin should now appear in the editor, which you can further modify if you wish. Save the finished product.

Step 6: Next, open Minecraft and select Skins in the main menu.

Step 7: Select Browse skins and choose the Technoblade skin once again.

Step 8: Once you load into a game, you will be wearing your selected skin.

It’s turning into a pretty good time to be a Monster Hunter fan who plays on a phone. Capcom has confirmed that Monster Hunter Outlanders will launch on Android and iOS on October 29, giving the series a new mobile-first game just as Monster Hunter Rise is also preparing to make the jump to smartphones through Netflix.

Outlanders is being developed by Tencent subsidiary TiMi Studio Group under license and supervision from Capcom. Unlike Rise, which appears to be the full console and PC game adapted for mobile, Outlanders is a free-to-play survival hunting game made specifically for phones.

Phantom Blade Zero makes me think Sony might have a point about going all digital
Physical games still matter, but when the disc isn't a complete copy of the game, the argument for keeping it becomes harder to make.

I'm a big supporter of physical games. There's something satisfying about owning a disc, lending it to a friend, or grabbing a bargain without waiting for a digital storefront to approve the price. But Phantom Blade Zero has me questioning one of the biggest arguments in the physical-versus-digital debate. The game's digital version launches on October 29, 2026, while its physical PS5 editions, including Standard, Deluxe, and Ultimate versions, won't arrive until 2027.

And there's another wrinkle: the digital version reportedly needs up to 134GB of storage, raising questions about how much of the game can actually fit on a standard Blu-ray disc. A standard PS5 Ultra HD Blu-ray disc maxes out at 100GB, so Phantom Blade Zero may need to ship across multiple discs or require players to download additional data to finish installing it. Either way, the idea of popping in a disc and having the complete game ready to play gets a little murkier.

Nintendo Switch 2 jailbreak breakthrough shows what AI can do, but it’s not a one-click hack
The software-only exploit works on the latest firmware, but it's tethered and still has significant limitations.
Nintendo Switch 2

The Nintendo Switch 2 has reportedly been jailbroken, and AI helped crack the code. Developer Sammy Hajhamid, aka pepsipu, used OpenAI's Codex to help exploit the console, even modding Mario Kart World with the likes of Peter Griffin and Hatsune Miku. But before anyone celebrates an unlocked Nintendo playground, there's a catch: the exploit is tethered, not a full-blown custom firmware jailbreak.
