Razer wants to fight gaming’s AI problem with more AI

Sam Altman at The Age of AI Panel, Berlin.

Razer has partnered with Sam Altman's World to help distinguish real players from bots in multiplayer experiences. Bots in multiplayer games are nothing new; in fact, many games benefit from giving players AI-controlled bots to play against when there aren't enough human players to fill a server. However, bots can also be too skilled and nearly impossible to defeat, or worse: they could be farming bots that do nothing but spam the game and ruin player experiences.

Razer ID verified by World ID is designed to designate users as humans and provide assurance that you're playing against another person, rather than a bot. It's built on the World Network, an existing blockchain system that uses iris scans to verify identity.

The best secret weapons in video games

Link pulls out the master sword in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

If there's one thing nearly every developer loves to include in games, it's secrets. Not every game has them, but most have at least a few easter eggs, secret bosses, secret levels, or even secret endings that give us more reasons to stay engrossed in their worlds. As much as we love extra challenges, sometimes we want a bit of an edge ourselves. Secret weapons are the best reward for going the extra mile in a game, whether it be taking on the most difficult challenge or solving a cryptic puzzle. These can be funny gag weapons, incredibly overpowered, or even both. There are a few times when secret weapons are not worth the effort so we've hand-picked only the coolest secret weapons in video game history.
Scarab Gun - Halo 2

In terms of ground combat, there's nothing more terrifying in the Halo universe than the Scarab. These bug-like walking tanks were introduced in Halo 2 and feature a devastating main cannon that projects a massive plasma beam. One mission features you jumping aboard a Scarab to take it down from the inside, but you can never actually turn its own weapon against the Covenant. Well, if you do the work to reach a very hidden area that involves luring a banshee through a tunnel and boarding it to fly all the way up to a rooftop you were never meant to reach normally, you can find a very special Plasma Rifle. While it looks like a normal weapon, it shoots the same plasma beam as the Scarab.
