“Mugunghwa kkoci pieot seumnida.” has been stated.

As of January 13, 2 p.m. (GMT+8): The sections concerning the release date and price have been updated.

Keep an eye on your rivals with the Young-hee skin bundle in Black Ops 6 and Warzone.

Here’s a peek at everything that the Young hee bundle contains.

Complete list of contents in the Young-hee skin bundle in BO6 and WZ

The bundle’s main attraction is the Young-hee operator skin, a spine-tingling reinterpretation of the notorious mechanical doll from the popular South Korean Squid Game series on Netflix.

Although the Young-hee skin has been resized to suit an operator, the doll maintains its haunting presence—which includes iconic pigtails, a schoolgirl outfit in orange and yellow, emotionless eyes, and an innocently-looking façade in harsh contrast to its malicious intentions.

In addition to two exclusive weapon blueprints that feature unique bullet tracers and a death effect, the bundle includes a set of cosmetics that perfectly match the doll’s creepy appearance.

Here’s the rundown of what’s included:

  • Young-hee Operator (Ultra skin)
  • DM-10 Marksman rifle “The Curator” weapon blueprint

Time has come to take on the shogun!

If you are away to tackle the weekly challenge linked to the Shoguns Arena, want to scope out the location to snap some classic shots in your clash against the Samurai NPC boss, or aim to create content, it is critical to know where the Shoguns Arena is located within Fortnite.

In case you’re not sure, season 1 of Fortnite Chapter 6, called ‘Hunters,’ introduces a Japanese Samurai theme for players to explore.

Detailed Overview of Shoguns Arena in Fortnite

With the latest additions, we now have a novel floating POI, the Shoguns Arena, that becomes visible once you achieve certain criteria.

If you are having difficulty finding the Shoguns Arena, continue reading this article for a simple way to locate it.

Shoguns Arena in Fortnite

The Shoguns Arena in Fortnite can be found at random spots in the sky across the map during the fourth round of the battle royale game.

The arena appears just as the fourth circle shrinks and is marked on the in-game map as a red dimensional rift, as you can see in the screenshot of the map above.

So, when you start a battle royale match, your initial goal should be to survive till the closing of the fourth circle.

Strategies for reaching Fortnite Shoguns Arena

You are free to employ any strategy – lying low in bushes, hunting down opponents, ticking off other challenges, or anything else, as long as you survive until the fourth round.

As the fourth circle comes into play, pop open your in-game map and look for the location of the red dimensional rift symbol.

Next, navigate to the specified location and harness the air updraft to reach the Shoguns Arena. Simply stand in the wind updraft and press the jump command.

Arriving at Shoguns Arena in Fortnite

Once inside the Shoguns Arena and viewing the map, you’ll notice a large main floating island surrounded by three smaller islands.

All these areas are designated as part of the Shoguns Arena, and any damage inflicted here will contribute towards your challenge. Damage dealt to the NPC boss also counts towards the challenge.

This concludes our guide on how to find the Shoguns Arena in Fortnite.

The return of some of the most elusive skins to the game is not a daily occurrence. Epic Games has re-introduced the Renegade Raider and Aerial Assault Trooper skins to Fortnite. These skins were initially made available in the shop during Season 1 and have made a comeback to the item shop after a span of seven years.

Players now have the chance to acquire these rare skins and commemorate Fortnite Original Chapter 1, and the game’s 7th anniversary. Here is a guide to assist you in obtaining the Renegade Raider and Aerial Assault Trooper skins in Fortnite.

To earn the Aerial Assault Trooper, players are required to gain 1,000,000 XP, roughly equivalent to 13.5 Battle Pass levels. Upon reaching the XP goal, Aerial Assault Trooper can be bought from the OG Season Shop for 1,200 V-Bucks.

After collecting 500,000 XP (approximately 6 Battle Pass levels), players can also get the corresponding Aerial Assault One Glider for 500 V-Bucks. A unique LEGO theme Aerial Assault Trooper is also accessible.

Once the required XP is collected, they can navigate to the OG Season Shop in the Item Shop to buy Renegade Raider for 1,200 V-Bucks.

What is the equivalent of 1.5 million XP in Fortnite levels

Approximately, 1.5 million XP equals about 19 Battle Pass levels in Fortnite. It will require considerable effort and regular playing hours to obtain such XP, but it is indeed worth it for those who appreciate OG skins like these.

Let’s go in search of the colossal creature.

The Season 1, Chapter 6 Fortnite trailer revealed the presence of the Great Turtle, which is truly an enormous beast.

This gigantic creature can be seen swimming in a number of lakes all over the island, catching several players by surprise as their boats sail past it.

Although the turtle is immense, it isn’t readily observable due to its constant movement from one location to another. However, its presence affords a great landing spot. Here’s a guide to assist you in locating the Giant Turtle in Fortnite.

The Giant Turtle’s whereabouts in Fortnite?

The map contains seven potential spawn locations for the Great Turtle. We highlight these spots on the provided map.

The most effective strategy is to review the map while aboard the battle bus. Pay close consideration to the highlighted spots, and see if you can identify the Giant Turtle swimming in any of the bodies of water. Alternatively, you could simply leap into the center of the map and scan for the turtle while you descend.

While near or on the Great Turtle, you might come across Ryuji, an in-game character. This NPC will share a tale about a marine serpent and the unfortunate predicament of the Great Turtle. As per Ryuji, the turtle is grappling with darkness and solitude as it searches for its lost paramour.

Hunting for the monumental turtle adds a thrill to the routine Fortnite games, keeping them engaging.

Currently, apart from being a moving landing spot where you can open chests and engage in standard map activities, the Great Turtle doesn’t offer any rewards or unique features. Nonetheless, future updates may introduce an easter egg related to it.

Our guide to locating the Giant Turtle in Fortnite concludes here.

Understanding the use of Permanent Unlock tokens in Black Ops 6 is essential for boosting your progression and enjoying the game.

These tokens let players unlock their chosen weapons, equipment, Perks, or Wildcards permanently, so they remain available after a Prestige reset.

In this guide from ONE Esports, we explain how to obtain these tokens and optimally utilize them to improve your battlefield performance.

What is a Permanent Unlock token in BO6?

This unique item provides players with permanent access to specific weapons, gear, Perks, or Wildcards regardless of their current level or Prestige rank.

Using a token instantaneously unlocks the chosen item, staying unlocked even after a Prestige progress reset.

Permanent Unlock tokens are invaluable for securing powerful items that usually unlock later in the levelling process.

For example, to avoid the hassle of grinding to Level 54 to unlock the Perk Greed Wildcard again, a Permanent Unlock token can unlock it instantly, saving precious time and energy.

How to get Permanent Unlock token

Each time you attain a new Prestige level, up to Prestige 10, you acquire a Permanent Unlock token.

Because these tokens are limited in number, make sure to utilize them judiciously, focusing on items that best align with your gaming style.

Once you reach Prestige Master, all level-based items are permanently unlocked, thus eliminating the need for more tokens.

How to use Permanent Unlock token

Follow these guided steps to use your token:

  1. Navigate to the Barracks section from the main Multiplayer menu.
  2. Open the Progression tab.
  3. Go to Level Unlocks to view the weapons, equipment, Perks, or Wildcards that can be unlocked.
  4. Find the item you wish to unlock permanently.
  5. Click on the “Use Permanent Unlock” option after selecting the item. The item is then unlocked for continuous use, regardless of any future Prestige resets.

We recommend first unlocking the Perk Greed Wildcard, and then the Perks that best suit your gameplay. This guarantees continuous access to these key Perks and their benefits, providing you with a consistent advantage in every game.

G2 Esports has announced its G2 LoL team for 2025, indicating a significant redeployment of its League of Legends EMEA Championship (LEC) roster.

The LEC titan has formally recruited jungler Rudy “SkewMond” Semaan and support Labros “Labrov” Papoutsakis to succeed the slots vacated by Martin “Yike” Sundelin and Mihael “Mikyx” Mehle.

SkewMond has earned recognition by assisting Team BDS Academy in securing victories at EMEA Masters 2024 Summer and the French League (LFL) 2024 Summer Playoffs. He will make his LEC first appearance at the LEC Winter 2025 in January.

Moreover, Labrov has also joined G2 Esports in 2025 as their support player. Known for his proficiency with hook characters like Nautilus, Alistar, and Thresh, Labrov has previously competed in the LEC with Team Vitality and Team BDS. His continuous playoff appearances in 2024, including Winter, Spring, and Summer, demonstrate his potential and athleticism.

With Labrov’s and SkewMond’s signings, G2 Esports has officially disbanded its highly successful team, which included BrokenBlade, Yike, Caps, Hans Sama, and Mikyx. This intimidating team, formed in 2023, reigned over the LEC for two years, achieving four successive championships at LEC Winter, Spring, Summer, and Season Finals in 2024.

Prior to the G2 LoL 2025 roster being officially presented at LEC Winter 2025, enthusiasts can watch them play at the Red Bull League of Its Own 2024 exhibition match against T1. The event will take place at the Accor Arena in Paris, France on December 15, 2024.
