Создатели Crimson Desert рассказали о планах на ближайшие обновления — они также заняты DLСО дополнении пока ничего не говорят.

God of War про Фэй, Until Dawn 2 и Marvel’s Wolverine — что показали на летней презентации State of PlayКак и всегда, много новостей по играм PlayStation и сторонних разработчиков.

Всего выпустят около пяти тысяч устройств.

Тем, кто проходил оригинальную первую часть «Готики», будет немного проще ориентироваться, но для новичков игра покажется не сложнее других.

Сюжет начинается с того, что безымянный герой попадает в Долину Рудников, и ему предстоит исследовать мир с самого начала.

Все мотивы, персонажи и лор будут объясняться по мере прохождения.

Конец месяца как раз «пустоват».

А одинаково высокие баллы чаще всего ставят «Побегу из Шоушенка».

Первый взгляд на ключевых героев ленты.

Ключевые разработчики не против заняться сиквелом, но решение принимать не им.

Всем игрокам, запустившим шутер, также подарят валюту.

Шоу спродюсировали Стивен Спилберг и Мартин Скорсезе.

Спустя два месяца тестирования Valve отправила в релиз доработанную главную страницу Steam.

«В каждом разделе есть уникальный набор инструментов и информация, благодаря которым у игроков будет множество способов для исследования всего разнообразия каталога игр в Steam, — пишет Valve.

Популярное и рекомендуемоеТеперь в Steam выводится больше информации о том, почему игра рекомендована пользователю, а также даётся сводка геймерских обзоров.

Плюс ко всему дизайнеры Steam ввели в список рекомендаций микротрейлеры и кликабельные скриншоты.

При наведении на изображение игры теперь показываются описание и другая релевантная информация.

Анонсирующий трейлер Spyder: Agent 8.

Издатель PQube и студия Sumo Digital анонсировали Spyder: Agent 8 — приключенческий стелс-экшен про робота-паучка в ретрофутуристическом антураже шпионских фильмов 1970-х годов.

Игра выйдет на ПК и консолях в 2026-м.

В Spyder: Agent 8 завезут текстовую русскую локализацию.

Скриншоты Spyder: Agent 8 со страницы в Steam.

Студия Odencat объявила дату выхода Mousebusters — пиксельного приключения с элементами хоррора и головоломок.

Игра ляжет на цифровые прилавки уже 11 июня и будет стоить $12,99.

Сюжет Mousebusters начинается с переезда главного героя в новый многоквартирный дом.

Когда источник проблемы найден, начинается охота на призраков.

Стать коллегой Шефа в Mousebusters можно будет на ПК (Steam) и позже на Nintendo Switch.

Похоже, польские разработчики из Bloober Team действительно корпят над дополнительным контентом для сурвайвал-хоррора Cronos: The New Dawn.

Свежая утечка от инсайдера под ником intercelluar представляет собой первый скриншот из готовящегося DLC под названием Lazarus.

Первое упоминание DLC обнаружили ещё в прошлом месяце в китайских социальных сетях, и до сих по каких-либо подробностей не появилось.

Скорее всего, Cronos: Lazarus представят в рамках грядущей презентации Summer Game Fest 2026, которая стартует в полночь по Москве с 5-го на 6 июня.

Cronos: The New Dawn доступна на ПК (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series и Nintendo Switch 2 с русской локализацией текста.

Nintendo подтвердила, что выпустит в Европе обновлённую версию Switch 2 со съёмным аккумулятором.

Компания пошла на этот шаг из-за нового законодательства Евросоюза, которое вступит в силу в феврале 2027 года.

В опубликованном заявлении Nintendo не называет Switch 2 напрямую, однако упоминает устройства с номерами моделей, начинающимися на «BEE».

Изменения могут затронуть не только саму консоль.

Когда именно появятся свежие и более экологичные версии Switch 2 и её аксессуаров, компания пока не уточняет.

Разработчики из FromSoftware раскрыли наконец дату релиза долгожданного порта Elden Ring для гибридной консоли Nintendo Switch 2.

Согласно свежему объявлению, Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition выйдет 28 августа.

Расширение The Tarnished Pack можно будет приобрести на всех целевых платформах.

В нём разработчики предлагают:2 новых стартовых класса — Рыцарь Ид (Knight of Ides) и Тяжёлый Рыцарь (Heavy Knight).

4 новых комплекта доспехов, 2 из которых принадлежат вышеназванным классам.

WWE 2K26 получила обновление с контентом третьего сезона — частью апдейта стал и гендиректор Take-Two Штраус Зельник (Strauss Zelnick).

Зельника в WWE 2K26 отнесли к категории «полутяжёлый вес», а его рейтинг составляет 77 баллов.

С таким показателем много не выиграешь, но для внутриигровой публики он всё равно является любимчиком.

WWE 2K26 доступна на ПК (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series и Switch 2.

Помимо Зельника в третьем сезоне добавили четверых рестлеров: Мэтта Кардону (Matt Cardona), Торри Уилсон (Torrie Wilson), Брайана Пиллмана (Brian Pillman) и Ла Парку.

Вскоре после появления сюжетного трейлера хоррора ILL выяснилась интересная деталь, которая обрадует всех фанатов жанра.

Свой голос главному герою в английском дубляже подарил @Ник Апостолидес — любимчик фанатов Resident Evil, который исполняет роль персонажа со времён ремейка второй части.

Официально имя актёра ещё не называли, однако Ник поделился свежим трейлером хоррора в социальных сетях, иронично назвав ILL «весёлой семейной игрой».

Они уже предвкушают появление в ILL «ван-лайнеров» в духе знаменитого героя, который постоянно потешается над врагами с помощью остроумных оскорблений.

Напомним, что ILL выйдет в 2027 году PC, PlayStation 5 и Xbox Series.

Создатели Gothic 1 Remake перед скорым релизом решили рассказать об актёрах, подаривших голоса персонажам ролевой игры.

Разработчикам было важно по возможности привлечь к ремейку актёров оригинальной игры — «чтобы сохранить подлинный дух „Готики“».

Кроме того, в русской версии мы услышим и многих других талантливых артистов.

Вот некоторые из актёров, работавших над ремейком «Готики» (о части из них уже было известно):

Геймеры по всему миру начали активно предсказывать Gothic 1 Remake .

Ажиотаж резко поднял грядущую новинку в топ-3 мирового чарта продаж Steam.

Тем временем в российском регионе Steam ремейк «Готики» может не переживать из-за конкурента в лице Forza Horizon 6, поэтому ему досталось сразу 2-е место в чарте.

До релиза Gothic 1 Remake остались считанные часы — она выходит сегодня в 20:00 МСК и будет доступна на PS5, Xbox Series и PC.

А пока можно ознакомиться с атмосферным вступительным роликом, который знакомит с миром и событиями до начала RPG

Для этого достаточно войти в шутер в период бесплатного доступа.

Изначально акция должна была завершиться 9 июня, а теперь — 11 июня .

Второй сезон Marathon под названием «СУМРАК» стартовал 2 июня и сразу столкнулся с техническими проблемами.

Пиковый онлайн в Steam за это время поднялся до 40 686 игроков одновременно.

А прямо сейчас (всё в том же Steam) в Marathon играют почти 13 тысяч человек — столько же и в Destiny 2.

На грядущей Summer Game Fest могут представить ремейк Resident Evil Code: Veronica — «с вероятностью 99%».

Об этом сообщает немецкий канал ScreenFire Germany, в прошлом отметившийся надёжными инсайдами о Resident Evil Requiem, включая её анонс на SGF 2025.

Capcom ещё не анонсировала ремейк Resident Evil Code: Veronica, но слухи о нём ходят давно.

Например, что игру представят в этом году, а выпустят в первой половине 2027-го.

Или, что за ремейк отвечают Казунори Кадои и Ясухиро Анпо, руководители разработки Resident Evil 2 (2019) и Resident Evil 4 (2023).

Valve обновила главную страницу магазина Steam.

Изменения тестировали в бета-версии с 1 апреля , а теперь выпустили для всех пользователей.

Список обновлений включает:Все пользователи Steam также могут адаптировать содержимое магазина под себя, изменив настройки, подписавшись на конкретных разработчиков и скрыв метки (их, кстати, недавно обновили) или отдельные игры.

Создатели Battlefield 6 представили геймплейный трейлер Blastpoint, второго обновления 3-го сезона.

Его выходит ожидается 9 июня.

С ним игроки получат доступ к Каирскому базару (Cairo Bazaar), обновлённой версии классической карты Grand Bazaar из Battlefield 3, культовому режиму Obliteration из Battlefield 4, бонусному пути Explosive Charge (альтернатива стандартному сезонному боевому пропуску) с бесплатными наградами и не только.

В этот раз игроки столкнутся с новыми опасностями, включая элитные эскадрильи асов.

Аркадный авиасимулятор Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve получил свежий трейлер на 10 минут, который предлагает взглянуть на игровой процесс.

СМИ также опубликовали свои предварительные обзоры Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve.

Но главное — фанаты получают ещё больше Ace Combat, а сама серия — возможность стать ещё популярнее.

Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve выходит 2 октября на PC, PS5 и Xbox Series.

Анонсированная для Netflix Games новая игра FIFA получила название FIFA World Cup: Launch Edition и официальный геймплейный трейлер.

Она выйдет 11 июня, в день старта Чемпионата мира по футболу.

Согласно описанию, болельщики смогут играть за любую из 48 команд-участниц этого года, используя свой мобильный телефон в качестве контроллера.

Также в игре будут представлены все 16 стадионов турнира.

В том числе Сенне — она появится в файтинге одновременно с Трешем.

Разработчики 2XKO представили новый трейлер файтинга во вселенной League of Legends .

Геймплейный ролик посвящён ещё одному чемпиону по имени Треш — он появится в игре 9 июня.

Напомним, что 2XKO вышла из раннего доступа на PC, а также добралась до PlayStation 5 и Xbox Series 21 января 2026 года.

В тот же день стартовал 1 сезон с Кейтлин Кирамман.

The minds behind Descender have reunited for a new Image Comics series called Crowbound. Check out our exclusive preview.

Subnautica 2 developer Unknown Worlds has revealed new content coming to the underwater survival game in the weeks and months ahead, teasing a new vehicle and new region centred around the Collector Leviathan as part of update 1.1.

Following a historic $28 million Kickstarter campaign, WeirdCo is already rolling out major gameplay overhauls to the official Cyberpunk TCG before its official launch.

Crimson Desert continues to evolve at a rapid pace. This week’s update adds a number of quality-of-life changes, makes the Wyvern a mount, and adds a pinball minigame, because why not?

LEGO reseller Bricks & Minifigs is attempting to resolve a controversial situation following allegations of a "stolen" LEGO Star Wars collection.

Javier Bardem delivers a menacing performance in Apple TV’s Cape Fear premiere, a lush, suspenseful update executive-produced by Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg.

Xbox CEO Asha Sharma has publicly addressed the on-going decision-making process regarding exclusives.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 players are having a blast with the games new mode, Black Ops Classic.

The Xbox Series S is taking some heat once again following comments made by the founder of Moon Studio, the team behind action RPG No Rest for the Wicked.

Netflix's Devil May Cry series has been renewed for a third season, which will also be the final season.

The new Masters of the Universe film runs 2 hours, 13 minutes, which is just long and bladder-filling enough to make one wonder whether they should stick around to see if there are any post-credits scenes. We’re here to tell you that you, yes, should stay all the way until the very end of the film credits.

In a blog post, Valve detailed its Verified programs for Steam Machine and Steam Frame, and insists both pieces of hardware are still coming this summer.

Netflix’s true crime miniseries The Witness offers a compelling and emotional depiction of the aftermath of a real-life murder witnessed by the 3-year-old son of the victim.

This is a rebadged Lenovo model with the power output to fast charge handheld gaming PCs and laptops.

The Steam Machine is coming to homes this summer, Valve have confirmed as they've added both the Machine and Steam Frame to their verified doodads program.

Previously ushed back by ongoing RAM shortages, the pair are now following in the footsteps of the already released Steam Controller.

"We are expanding the Verified program to include Steam Machine and Steam Frame, both of which are shipping this summer," Valve wrote in a blog post.

It's unsurprising then that Valve added the following in terms of how the Steam Machine fits into the program:The requirements for Steam Machine Verified are nearly identical to Steam Deck Verified, and focus on the customer experience out of the box: Does th…

So how about a Balatro-like that forgoes the gambling, and asks you to whip out a dictionary instead?

That game is Lexispell, a roguelike word game with a dash of physics thrown into the mix.

The name doesn't have great mouthfeel, a tad ironic for a game about words, but the magic is in the spelling.

Upon spelling a word, their value is tallied up, and your multiplier goes up for every letter the word contains.

Lexispell is also a lot slower a game than Balatro, namely because you'll be spending a lot of time searching for the longest word you can.

It's time to say hello to your new face!

"The old player model has served us well for almost 10 years, but it’s lagged behind the rest of the game for some time," developer Facepunch Studios explain in a Steam blog post.

There's more hairstyles and bear options, and all clothing options in the game have been updated to work with the new model.

Part of the reason Facepunch wanted to get a new player model in the game is to also start improving animations.

There's a whole bunch more going on in this update too, all of which you can read about here.

By that I mean, some bad news came out of PlayerUnknown Productions yesterday.

Manage cookie settingsWhat this means for Prologue: Go Wayback, which was released as an early access game, is that it will be released for free with its next update.

Those that bought the game on Steam or Epic may also be able to get a refund, as PlayerUnknown Productions are apparently seeking a way to make this possible.

Prologue: Go Wayback only launched back in November of last year, but didn't seem to make too much of an impact in the months since.

How about a little look ahead at what's apparently coming to Subnautica 2?

Performance improvements will continue too, with a particular highlight placed on epic settings, which should run a bit better in the coming updates.

You'll be able to replay voice logs from the PDA on top of this.

This new region will have new creatures and resources, and you'll apparently be able to jump in wherever you are in your current save file.

Lots of little bits promised in this one, but hey ho, it'll come with time.

It's dubbed Planet Warfronts and is coming as part of a raft of changes/additions to Helldivers 2's intergalactic perma-conflict.

Planet Warfronts won't be the first of these additions to arrive, but it does sound like it's got the most potential to substantially shake up the helldiving experience.

"While it was promising, we realised we didn't have the content needed to do it justice at the time.

We feel we've now added enough content to realise the vision we had for Planet Warfronts, and it's going to be the next big thing we're working towards in the Galactic War."

Before the curremtly release windowless warfronts arrive, Arrowhead are rolling out Galactic War Campaigns to replace Major …

They might have proven they deal in secret extra DLC for decade-old RPGs this year, but for my money, Project Hadar remains the most mysterious game CD Projekt have in the works.

It's always there in their financial reports alongside The Witcher 4 and Cyberpunk 2, flaunting its sheer unknowableness.

That's left the curious to scour the likes of job listings for various roles on Project Hadar.

You'll laugh, you'll bawl your eyes out, you'll feel totally neutral.

"Hadar is still basically an IP concept, so not a game development project yet," he responded top a question about it.

The release date for Bit Reactor and Respawn's XCOM-coded strategy game Star Wars Zero Company has leaked ahead of the Summer Geoffs.

Those in the mood to order a squad around in the midst of the Clone Wars before the summer's out are in luck, as Zero Company's only a couple of months away.

According to regularly reliable leaker Billbil-kun at Dealabs, the game will hyperdrive jump into our lives on August 27th, 2026.

"Hawks and Zero Company are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked," reads the blurb.

"To succeed, Hawks will lead a team of uneasy allies who must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impos…

007 First Light, James Bond's freshly released spying sojourn to various exotic and dangerous locales, is a thoroughly enjoyable action romp.

However, whether they will or not looks to have been left a bit up in the air for now, with an Amazon Game Studios exec having confirmed that IO won't be self-publishing any Bond follow-ups.

As such, Gattis said Amazon "didn't have the full rights to this First Light James Bond game," but that sequels will be "done by MGM and, theoretically, by Amazon Game Studios".

I've reached out to Amazon Game Studios for comment.

From a purely game-centric perspective, it'd make no sense to throw away the Bond game momentum First Light's spooled up.

Our chums at PlayStation have shared more about Kemuri, the giddy new third-person action game from a team lead by former Tango Gameworks developer and E3 2019 scene-stealer Ikumi Nakamura.

The obvious reference point is Ghostwire: Tokyo, Nakamura's previous and more ponderous yokai-hunting project for Tango.

She left the studio before that game's completion, but she appears to have brought a lot of the same inspirations to Kemuri.

"Together, players dive into the city as one discovers, one guides, and one strikes the final blow," Nakamura goes on.

I also like the implication that co-op is a ritual with players fulfilling different roles, rather than being clones of each other.

In the recently announced God Of War Laufey, you will not step into the shoes of John Kratos's dearly departed wife Faye.

You will not embark on a rollercoaster adventure through a syncretic, pick-and-mix "Everywhen" of dead mythological figures that sounds suspiciously like the backdrop for a future God Of War Smash Bros.

You will not get to punch people so hard they sneeze their souls out, or lacerate them with a flippity-dippity ribbon sword.

You will not get to obliterate a Tibetan dharmapāla, or kick sand in the face of the Egyptian goddess of disease.

It corroborates an older report from Bloomberg that Sony aren't putting any of their first-party singleplayer games on PC for the fores…

Current-generation Xbox hardware sales have been low in all major markets, registering its worst-ever year in the UK last year.

Fortunes almost turned in May, however, a month when PlayStation suffered a big drop in its own sales.

That's according to The Game Business host, and industry analyst, Christopher Dring, who revealed that PS5 hardware sales dropped by a shocking 50 percent during the month of May in the UK.

By the end of the month, PS5 hardware had outsold Xbox Series X/S consoles by just 400 units.

Unfortunately for the platform holder, Saros has not performed anywhere near well enough at launch to be able to push hardware sales.

Valve intends to release its Steam Machine and Steam Frame this summer.

The Steam Machine is a new console coming from Valve, which will allow you to play your PC games on your television.

This decision left many concerned about what this would mean for release of the Steam Machine and the Steam Frame.

"Today we are expanding the Verified program to include Steam Machine and Steam Frame, both of which are shipping this summer.

However, the PC market is getting more expensive, and there are concerns the Steam Machine will retail in excess of $1000.

Subnautica 2 is off to a roaring start, and developer Unknown Worlds recently celebrated the fact that 4m players have now dipped their toes into the waters of the ocean planet Proteus.

On top of that, wrecks are getting unspecified improvements, and changes to Blight encounters should make parasite aggression levels more obvious to players.

Unknown Worlds also reiterated that it's working on Subnautica 2's first major early access content drop, which will include a new region.

And if you want more of a (really not very subtle) clue, Gallegos teased, "Get ready to get stompy".

There's no timeframe for any of this yet, but Subnautica 2's previously released roadmap does, at least, paint a pi…

However, if IOI does make more James Bond games, franchise owner Amazon has said it wants to be more involved.

Watch on YouTubeAmazon bought the James Bond rights last year for $20m, which is why IO Interactive was clear to publish 007 First Light, because the deal was done before Amazon took Bond over, Amazon gaming boss Jeff Gattiss explained to Polygon.

But if IO Interactive were to make any sequels, they would be overseen "by MGM and, theoretically, by Amazon Game Studios", Gattiss added.

And the good news is, there is more to come, and IOI has significant post-release plans for 007 First Light.

If you are making your way through 007 First Light, but need a little extra hand, be sure to…

FromSoftware and Bandai Namco Entertainment have finally announced a Switch 2 release date for Elden Ring.

Elden Ring will be released on Switch 2 on 28th August, packaged as the Tarnished Edition.

In addition, Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition will come with two new starting classes, all-new character armour and customisation options for Torrent.

Elden Ring was first released back in 2022, and quickly became a huge success for developer FromSoftware.

Elden Ring was meant to make its Switch 2 debut last year, however its release was delayed to "allow time for performance adjustments".

Following the reveal of God of War Laufey, series developer Sony Santa Monica has had to clarify, on multiple occasions, that longtime protagonist Kratos remains the eponymous God of War, and more games starring Kratos are in indeed the works.

This intention to make more games about Kratos was later reiterated by Sony Santa Monica's X account following the God of War Laufey reveal and reaction.

Image credit: VG247The debut trailer for God of War Laufey revealed the eponymous Jotnar as its main protagonist.

There are also plenty of comments from fans genuinely surprised to see a God of War game not be led by Kratos.

We'll be waiting a while, though, as God of War Laufey does not yet have a r…

Nintendo has announced it is creating hardware with replaceable batteries, which presumably will include its Switch consoles, due to new EU regulations tackling electronic waste.

Announced on the official Nintendo Website, the company declared it would follow the EU's batteries regulation by updating its hardware.

While the specific Nintendo products affected aren't listed, one can assume this includes anything with a battery in it.

So, the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, and the Nintendo Pro Controllers.

It means that starting February 2027, you should be able to go out and buy new versions of Nintendo hardware and be able to swap out batteries at your leisure.

It sounds as though developer Insomniac's Wolverine game is far narrower in scope than its Spider-Man games.

In Marvel's Wolverine, the adventure is more of a charge from start to finish.

Across a several-minute demo, that's fine - that is clearly a major part of the Marvel's Wolverine experience.

So while Marvel's Wolverine comes from the same developer and the same catalogue of superheroes as Marvel's Spider-Man, they sound like significantly different games.

Fortunately we won't have long to find out, as Marvel's Wolverine is due for release 15th September exclusively on PlayStation 5.

В частности, чистая выручка Allwyn выросла на 21% год к году до 1,2 млрд евро, а скорректированная EBITDA — на 24% до 443 млн евро.

Если актив исключить, чистая выручка Allwyn все равно будет показывать рост, но меньший — на 3,5%.

Крупнейшим рынком для Allwyn осталась континентальная Европа с выручкой в 1,2 млрд евро, что на 7% выше прошлогоднего уровня.

В то же время в Великобритании показатель снизился на 7% до 942 млн евро.

В отчете также отмечены результаты Betano, входящей в Kaizen Gaming, в которой Allwyn владеет 37%.

Сообщается, что первичное размещение акций Liftoff на бирже завершится завтра, 5 июня.

К этому моменту платформа рассчитывает продать 19 млн акций по цене в 23 доллара за штуку, чтобы привлечь в итоге 437 млн долларов.

В результате Liftoff пришлось отложить IPO на несколько месяцев.

Однако в мае 2025-го, когда миноритарную долю Liftoff купила General Atlantic, сумма была куда выше и составляла 4,3 млрд долларов.

В отчете для Комиссии по ценным бумагам и биржам США Liftoff рассказала, что в 2025 году ей удалось более чем вдвое сократить свои убытки (до 23,1 млн долларов) и на 32% нарастить выручку (до 685,7 млн долларов).

Скандал вокруг предполагаемой монополии Valve на рынке ПК-сторов внезапно распространился на Microsoft.

Два геймера из США подали в суд на корпорацию, заявив, что она помогает поддерживать высокие цены в Steam.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4Как утверждают истцы, много лет назад Microsoft и Valve договорились о ценовом паритете.

По их словам, в рамках сделки Microsoft согласилась не продавать игры дешевле, чем в Steam, а Valve ей платит за это.

Например, они напомнили, что пару лет назад всплыла переписка между сотрудниками Microsoft, в которой упоминается, что Steam требует от корпорации соблюдения ценового паритета.

О сделке рассказал глава «Рубрика» Айнар Абдрахманов в беседе с газетой «Ведомости» во время ПМЭФ 2026.

В комментарии «Ведомостям» глава Организации развития видеоигровой индустрии Василий Овчинников предположил, что реалистичный диапазон составляет 35-55 млн рублей.

В то же время он не исключил, что сумма может доходить и до 70 млн рублей.

Как объяснил специалист, в портфеле «Девгейма» находятся ценные для «Рубрика» лицензионные соглашения с владельцами известных детских франшиз, которые способны увеличить стоимость студии.

Как заметили «Ведомости» в базе данных «СПАРК-Интерфакс», в прошлом году выручка «Девгейма» составила 17,2 млн рублей.

В Панаме приняли закон №527, который вводит новую систему регулирования азартных игр и расширяет полномочия Совета по контролю за азартными играми.

Закон распространяется как на наземные казино, так и на различные формы онлайн-гемблинга.

В частности, он дает властям право ограничивать доступ к сайтам и приложениям, работающим без панамской лицензии, — это касается и зарубежных операторов.

Телеком-компании обязаны вводить блокировку в течение пяти дней после предписания.

Ожидается, что закон вступит в силу в течение шести месяцев.

PionerКак заметили наши коллеги из IXBT Games, 29 мая 2026-го в арбитражный суд Москвы поступило заявление с требованием о банкротстве ООО «ГФАГЕЙМС» — это российское юридическое лицо разработчиков Pioner.

Напомним, информация о долге GFA Games появилась в конце апреля, когда налоговая заблокировала счета студии в российских банках.

Все это происходит на фоне новостей о кризисе в GFA Games.

Ранее App2Top выяснил, что сотрудникам GFA Games месяцами задерживают зарплаты, а руководство студии находится в серьезном разладе с командой разработки.

Затем GFA Games публично подтвердила сложности с выплатами, но назвала их временными и связанными с «резко усложнившейся бюрократией» при работе с Росс…

В этот раз они добрались до PlayerUnknown Productions — студии, которую пять лет назад открыл автор PUBG Брендан Грин (Brendan Greene).

Грин объявил, что больше не может в должной мере финансировать свои проекты.

Взвесив все, он решил провести реструктуризацию в студии, в результате чего штат прокинет часть разработчиков.

Кроме того, PlayerUnknown Productions заморозит разработку симулятора выживания Prologue: Go Wayback!, который сейчас находится в раннем доступе.

По словам Грина, PlayerUnknown Productions рассмотрит возможность вернуть деньги геймерам, успевшим купить Prologue: Go Wayback!, но пока он не может обещать это наверняка.

Ровно два месяца назад, 3 апреля 2026-го, издатель tinyBuild и студия All Parts Connected отправили в релиз All Will Fall — симулятор постройки городов посреди океана.

О коммерческом успехе All Will Fall на днях объявил издательский продюсер tinyBuild Артем Сафаров в LinkedIn.

Зато Сафонов поделился рядом других цифр:▫️продажи All Will Fall недавно превысили 100 тысяч копий;▫️помимо этого сейчас на счету игры более 500 тысяч вишлистов;▫️разработка All Will Fall заняла два года.

За это время tinyBuild и All Parts Connected провели более 20 плейтестов, а после релиза они уже выпустили 21 патч.

All Will Fall доступна только на ПК через Steam.

VR developer Vertigo Games has announced the closure of its Amsterdam studio.

"This is not a decision we have taken lightly, and I want to acknowledge the impact it has on everyone at Vertigo Studios Amsterdam," said Stitselaar.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to Vertigo Studios Amsterdam over the years."

Vertigo Games was originally established as Force Field Entertainment in 2015, which was acquired by Vertigo Games in 2021.

The closure of Vertigo Games Amsterdam illustrates a wider pattern affecting the VR industry.

Nintendo Switch 2 sales in Japan fell by 87% after a surge prior to the May 25 price increase.

According to Famitsu (via VGC), last week's data showed that Switch 2 hardware sales dropped to 31,751 units.

In the three weeks before May 25, Switch 2 sales exceeded 200,000 units, driven by reports of the impending price increase.

After the increase, the Japanese-language Switch 2 system price rose from ¥49,980 ($312) to ¥59,980 ($374).

Nintendo stated that the decision to raise hardware prices was due to current market conditions.

Indie titles now routinely produce launches with AAA-level concurrent player counts.

Minecraft was the early signal of this, a single-developer project that ended up generating more private server demand than most studio titles of its time."

This exceeds most AAA launches, he says, highlighting how the nature of player expectation and server demand has fundamentally changed.

That generates a different kind of long-tail server demand than a passive player base does.

"The sustained community server demand from that player base went far beyond what anyone, including us, had sized initially," says Stange.

IO Interactive will no longer self-publish future James Bond games, which will instead be published by MGM and Amazon Game Studios.

IO Interactive developed and self-published 007: First Light, which launched on May 27 and sold over 1.5 million copies within 24 hours.

Amazon Game Studios general manager Jeff Gattis told Polygon that the company's stake in future Bond games stems from its 2022, $8.45 billion acquisition of IP owner MGM.

Gattis also noted that an IP like Bond supports Amazon's broader transmedia strategy across video games, film, and television.

"There are a lot of things we have in the works on new games that'll relate to Prime Video IP.

Vampire Survivors developer Poncle is set to establish a new studio in Japan with Crim boss, Sawaki Takeyasu.

In an interview with Famitsu and reported by Gematsu, Poncle founder and Vampire Survivors creator Luca Galante talked about his dream of opening a Japan-based studio "due to his longtime admiration for Japanese games and positive experiences visiting Japan."

Galante has also long admired Takeyasu's work, with the word 'Poncle' originating from Okami, for which Takeyasu worked as character designer.

While collaboration between regions remains possible, development will largely be handled independently, and Galante confirmed that a future project could emerge from the Japan studio," …

"And if they are retired, they have even more money – but nobody's making games for the retired people."

The same pattern of a rise in the numbers of older gamers can be seen across Western Europe.

Whether you’re running a Switch on the go, playing Xbox in another room, or extending your gaming laptop setup, a secondary display changes everything.

In other words, sharp images regardless if you’re gaming on the Switch, connecting a PS5 or extending your PC setup for extra workspace.

Plug it into your console and you’re good in an instant for big-screen console gaming in a hotel room.

EcoFlow’s best‑selling Delta 2 hits a record‑low $429 on Amazon as the brand clears stock after launching the Delta 3.

Here’s my ranking of the toughest battles in Final Fantasy Tactics and some tips for how to beat them.

Fovoham WindflatsWhy it’s hard: Any fight against a character with Holy Knight abilities is bullshit, and the game throws this one at you super early.

What to do about it: This is the one battle I’ve never tried to beat without cheese.

Final Fantasy Tactics loves these little duels but they completely subvert the normal strategies the game usually incentivizes.

What to do about it: Not to sound like a broken record but you can try to break Wiegraf’s sword.

Well, a big ol’ Yakuza franchise sale, happening now on Steam, might help you finally check out this popular series.

And (almost) all of those games are currently on sale on Steam as part of a big Yakuza franchise sale that ends on October 23.

The other odd duck here is Yakuza 3 Remastered, which isn’t on sale despite being included in the sales event page.

Perhaps Sega made a mistake, and it will be marked down to $11 like most of the other Yakuza games in the sale.

A major revelation for Pokémon fans is tucked in a corner of Lumiose CityI’m very early in Pokémon Legends: Z-A, but I just found something in Lumiose City I had to tell somebody about, or I might explode.

That’s what nearly happened to me, but luckily, I did stumble upon the Lumiose Museum in the northeast corner of the city.

If you’ve played Pokémon Legends: Arceus, you’re gonna want to stop by this place and check out one of this museum’s exhibits.

Arceus players will know that Hisui is the previous name of the Sinnoh region from Diamond and Pearl, and the historical setting of the last Legends game.

So one way or another, history has not forgotten them and what they accomplis…

And while many are excited to hop in and start catching pocket monsters, many fans aren’t happy with Z-A‘s small and boring map, which lacks the environmental variety found in past Pokémon games.

This location first appeared in 2013’s Pokémon X and Y. In those games, Lumiose City was just one of many locations included in the large open world.

However, in Z-A, Lumiose City is essentially the entire playspace, and that’s proving to be a disappointing fact for some players.

However, Z-A’s map isn’t just small, it also lacks visual variety.

At least if you buy the game on Switch, it mostly looks the same as the Switch 2 version.

Players have tested this on Pokémon they’ve found in the overworld, and it seems like, unless you defeat it in battle, Shiny Pokémon don’t despawn.ÂI found a Shiny Magikarp.

Schofield’s last big game was 2022’s Dead Space-like The Callisto Protocol.

But the last time Schofield went to the publisher to talk Dead Space, it wasn’t interested.

“I went to [EA] recently and they’re like no, we’re not interested anymore,” Schofield told IGN.

“I said, ‘I can get back the leadership team.’ I need the models from [Dead Space remake developer] EA Motive, and I can save you 30 to 40 million dollars on the idea that I have.

NVIDIA is Reportedly Working on RTX 50 Series Super, As it Readies RTX 5060 or RTX 5060 Super With 12 GB VRAM CapacityAfter hearing reports on the cancellation of the RTX 50 series Super cards, a new report has emerged out of nowhere, claiming that NVIDIA has started working on the Super cards as expected.

A Resident Evil Code Veronica remake has been rumored to be in the works for a while, and with the chatter coming from reputable insiders, it seemed like its reveal wouldn't be too far off in the future.

Way to the Woods offers a soothing alternative look at life after the fall.

Ahead of its appearance in the XBOX section at Summer Game Fest Play Days, I played a brief demo of this lovely little treat of a 3D narrative game, and spoke to its creator, ant tan, aka OnePixel.Dog.

In Way to the Woods you are a deer leading a faun through abandoned urban environments in order to get back home to the woods.

According to tan, “they’re challenging enough to be satisfying to solve, but you can turn your brain off and enjoy this game easily.

In Control Resonant, Manhattan has been warped by paranatural forces: its architecture impossible, its realities shifting, its streets stalked by monstrous entities born from a new kind of resonance.

His story drives Resonant, but as in the first game, the other sibling shapes the path.

When he first appeared in Control, he was a monster, a warped being ready to annihilate our reality.

It’s great to finally be talking about The Lost Wild, a game where you don’t fight dinosaurs.

The environments in The Lost Wild are dense, claustrophobic, and unforgiving, with abandoned buildings embedded within an overgrown wilderness.

Storytelling in The Lost Wild is designed to be discovered rather than force-fed.

The Lost Wild leans into that approach offering an experience where survival is never guaranteed and dominance is never assumed.

Where the original moved you from one self-contained room to the next, Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis opens those spaces into semi-connected environments you can traverse, explore, and approach from new angles.

Secure your edition before February 12 and stay tuned for plenty more news about Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis in the months ahead.

The main feature of note is that the shroud around the radiator fans is transparent.

We weren't given a name for the cooler, given it's just a prototype, but we were told that Hyte is aiming to have it start at $100.

And although I'm not certain whether that would be for a triple-fan version pictured or a two-fan 240 mm one, I'd lean towards the former, given that's what they're actually showing off.

And from the side—which will most likely be how you're viewing it—you might not get a view of much past the RGB fans.

Though maybe that's the point, to see the RGB fans lit up side-on.

Also another type of ball—"Orb Roll"—and the ability to feed a baby wyvern so much you can ride it.

Those items are:Material Box of FortuneAbyss ArtifactTwo types of Artifact ChestsA helmet13 types of furnitureThree types of gear crafting recipes.

Obtainable items: Material Box of Fortune, Abyss Artifact, 2 types of Artifact Chests, golden apple, 3 types of carpets, 3 types of lightsAdded a new mount: "Wyvern".

Fixed an issue where, if a pet picked up certain items while the inventory was full, the items would disappear without being obtained.

Changed the contribution shop and manager of the contribution shop's name to contribution office and contribution assessor.

In one such case, the senior confirmed that there are no current plans to bring AI-powered FSR 4.1 upscaling and frame generation to RDNA 3.5 GPUs.

When they got on to the subject of FSR, McAfee reportedly said that the company had no current plans to bring its all-singing, all-dancing FSR 4.1 to GPUs based on the RDNA 3.5 architecture.

But given the capabilities of the smaller RDNA 3.5 chips, it would probably be too much of a performance drop to be worth using.

Depending on who you want to believe, AMD either does or doesn't have any plans currently in place for giving RDNA 3.5 GPU owners a slice of FSR 4.1 goodness.

We got eyes in on the company's booth at Computex, and as well as showing off a TKL version of our favourite gaming keyboard, and a complimentary mouse pad, we got a look at the Pure Base 803 and the white Pure Base 803 LX.

This large PC case comes with support for up to 3 x 420 mm radiators and 2 x 140 mm rear fans.

says the Pure Base 803 is "designed for maximum performance, high hardware compatibility, and flexible storage options."

notes that the 803 comes with space for up to 7 HDDs, which is truly a phenomenal amount of storage.

We don't yet have a price point on either model of Base 803, but Be Quiet!

Almost exactly a year ago, Persona 4's seemingly inevitable remake broke cover for the first time at an Xbox Games Showcase.

This is just speculation, but Atlus revealed Persona 3 Reload—its Persona 3 remake—in June of 2023 and released it in February of 2024.

One wrinkle, though: Persona 4 Revival's ESRB (and PEGI) rating is identical to Persona 4 Golden's, which makes sense.

But, as spotted by The Gamer, P4R's Japanese CERO rating is actually lower than Golden's: CERO B rather than CERO C, meaning it's suitable for ages 12 and above.

That's the same as the rating for the original, non-Golden PS2 Persona 4.

The idea behind it all is actually quite simple, but Cooler Master's execution looks really good: Take a 'standard' AIO cooler and slap a big fan on the pump/CPU block.

Here's what Cooler Master's PR manager, Brett Buren, told us about its G11M concept at the Computex stand: "[It's] kind of a hybrid between an air cooler and an AIO.

So this is currently using our Atmos 2 radiator with the Master Fan A Gold.

"Yeah, we had some comments like people were pointing out sometimes when you have an AIO, it looks kind of empty in your case."

But there's another reason why I'm so interested in it: Cooler Master is targeting 400 W of thermal capacity for the device.

Thermal Grizzly has some products in the works that will make any custom loop aficionado salivate.

(Image credit: Future)CVD stands for Chemical Vapor Deposition.

Thermal Grizzly is then using a very thin sheet of this diamond for its thermal benefits.

Image 1 of 3 (Image credit: Future) (Image credit: Future) (Image credit: Future)What is eventually coming to market are these gorgeous new coatings for Thermal Grizzly's non-diamond CPU and GPU blocks.

Thermal Grizzly hasn't yet decided which options it's going to go for or if it'll just offer a few as customisation options.

So, imagine my surprise when at this year's Computex, Nvidia finally unveiled the much-leaked RTX Spark.

That all goes without saying anything about the price, but I'll get into why I'm doubting RTX Spark machines will save our wallets from devastation a little later.

On the subject of practical matters, the pre-release RTX Spark machines we've seen so far have all been pretty sleek.

(Image credit: Nvidia)Memory configurations will range from 16 GB to 128 GB, and based on that detail alone I'm expecting most RTX Spark machines to be too rich for my blood.

As exciting as all of that is though, I wouldn't be surprised if the price of an RTX Spark machine leaves many PC Gamers in the dust.

Yacht Club's new title Mina The Hollower is filled with all sorts of surprises and secrets, but according to the lead programmer David D'Angelo, the average amount of items discovered in each playthrough right now is only "around 50 to 70 percent".

Speaking to Eurogamer, D'Angelo explained how this means some players are effectively "missing 50 percent" of what the game has to offer.

In the same interview, the developer went on to explain how Mina is "community oriented" and so if you miss things, you can always consult a friend.

According to a sales update earlier this week, Mina the Hollower sold 300,000 copies in its first three days.

If you're a Persona fan, there appears to be some updates regarding the next major entry in the Atlus role-playing series.

Ahead of the Summer Game Fest livestream, leaked images of supposed "Persona 6" character designs have reportedly surfaced online, followed by takedowns.

The last major Persona title released was Persona 5 in 2016.

And the Persona 4 Revival is also on the way, and could be back in the spotlight very soon.

This latest rumour follows the Atlus' 30th anniversary Persona website seemingly teasing "the next chapter for the series".

A story from earlier this week about Amazon publishing future James Bond games has reportedly led to some confusion and concern about IO Interactive's involvement going forward.

Here's the full statement (via VGC):"Amazon MGM holds the rights to any future James Bond video games but it’s still too early to discuss future projects.

We have a great relationship with IO Interactive and are proud of what we’ve accomplished together on 007 First Light.

Our partners at IO will reveal more about 007 First Light in the near future and we’re looking forward to sharing what’s next.”Right, spoiler time...

Update [ ]: Following a listing last month, EA has now officially revealed EA Sports Madden NFL 27 and also confirmed it's launching for the Switch 2 and other platforms on 13th August 2026.

EA SPORTS™ Madden NFL 27, powered by the all-new Persona Engine, transforms Franchise into a reactive, always-evolving league where every NFL athlete has a distinct, realistic personality that informs their motivations, demands and reactions.

Earlier this year, The Pokémon Company released a special retro-style Pikachu plush in Japan to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Pokémon series.

The Pikachu 1996 Style Plush is priced at $29.99 (or your regional equivalent) and the key chain is $12.99.

"The Pikachu 1996 Style Plush is bursting with retro charm.

In addition to the infinitely huggable plush, there’s also the Pikachu 1996 Style Plush Key Chain that brings big-time nostalgic vibes to your bag, backpack, or lanyard."

Apart from this retro plush and key chain, the Pokémon Center is celebrating Pokémon's 30th anniversary with various other merch including themed trading card game items, clothing and some other exclusive plush.

Famitsu has given us an updated look at the Japanese charts as the first week of Switch price increases comes into play in the region.

Those with a Switch console already in hand obviously weren't deterred by the price change and continued picking up Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream in droves.

The game nabbed an extra ~52,000 sales this week, even keeping 007 First Light's PS5 release from the top spot.

Elsewhere, AQUAPLUS' JRPG Utawarerumono: Past and Present Rediscovered debuted in fifth and ninth, and Demon Kill Demon: Yomi 1985 made its first appearance at seventh.

With both Switch 1 and 2 affected by the rise, the sales boom of the last few weeks has dropped off a cliff.

With the 'Rattlin' Snake Bananza' event firmly in the rear-view, Nintendo has announced what's next for Donkey Kong Bananza's DLC challenges.

Next up is the 'Kong Bananza Returns' event, which gets underway next week, on 9th June, and will be sticking around until 16th.

Supergiant Games is back with another Hades II hotfix in its second post-launch patch.

As its name suggests, the patch is mainly focused on cleaning up some bugs, with a boatload of small fixes being introduced across the game.

The full patch notes were shared on Steam, and we have gathered them together for you to check out below (note: patch notes may contain small spoilers).

After over a year of waiting (and one delay), Bandai Namco has finally given us a release date for Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition on Switch 2: 28th August 2026.

Rise, Tarnished," the accompanying caption reads on the announcement's social posts, and rise we shall.

Subscribe to Nintendo Life on YouTube847kInitial impressions out of Gamescom last year suggested that Elden Ring was looking pretty rough on Switch 2, however, the peeks that we've seen at events since then seem to suggest that things are moving in the right direction.

The project was delayed out of its original 2025 window at the end of last year, with Bandai Namco and FromSoftware needing more time for "performance adjustments".

Those are hardly Hall of Fame-worthy accomplishments, and when you compare them to the solo developer of Battle Waves, it's enough to drive me into an existential crisis.

For one thing, Battle Waves has managed to scratch that card game itch that always gets me; for another, it's done so in the most incredibly polished way possible, in my opinion.

As you might expect from a card battler, you'll build your deck, draw from a set of cards, and deploy them onto the battlefield.

So thank you, Battle Waves solo dev Gabriel Langlois, for making me realise how unproductive I've been all this time.

Perhaps this is a wake-up call for me to get up and do something meaningful with my life - or perhaps …

Now, Rainbow Six Mobile's newest season, Operation Gray Phantom, has just gone live!

While not quite as massive as what the mainline Rainbow Six is getting, Operation Gray Phantom does introduce a new Operator, limited-time modes and seasonal events.

Subscribe to Pocket Gamer onDeep-sixedFinka's main ability is Adrenaline Surge, a team-wide ability that allows them to fight harder, longer and faster.

Finally, we have the Veil Protocol arriving in weeks three, four and five.

Still, Rainbow Six Mobile may be an adaptation of one of the biggest hits in the shooter space, but it's far from the only option on mobile.

Fresh out of the oven, CookieRun Classic has appeared on both Google Play and the iOS App Store, with a release slated for June 25th.

It bills itself as a revamped version of the classic CookieRun: Ovenbreak, complete with new cookies themed after Korean culture.

And truth be told, the main reaction I've seen from the announcement of CookieRun Classic is a mixture of excitement...and confusion.

What we do know for sure is that CookieRun Classic introduces a host of exciting new cookies, the aforementioned Korean-inspired confectionery that is.

But while CookieRun may be a big hit, it's far from the only endless runner series out there on mobile.

Two-time Roland-Garros eSeries champion Sasmis discusses defending his crown and making tournament historyAs millions of tennis fans prepare to watch the world's best players compete for French Open glory at Roland-Garros this weekend, one champion has already secured the tournament's most prestigious esports prize.

Dragonfall Kingdom has just landed on Android, and it doesn’t take long to see where it sits.

You’re building up a kingdom, pushing outward, managing resources, and dealing with other players doing the same somewhere nearby.

If you’ve been around this genre for a while, none of it will feel unfamiliar, which might be exactly what you’re looking for.

Dragonfall Kingdom is out now on Android.

If you’re looking for something similar, our list of the top strategy games on Android is worth a look next.

Star Blaster is out now, and look, it's fine.

Star Blaster doesn't really reinvent any of that.

Even if it's kinda weirdHave you ever wondered what the meme version of Skeletor does after he delivers an absurd fact and then legs it?

But in Skeletor: Until Next Time, Mattel clearly thought it was time to answer that question.

To be honest, it's such an amusing meta approach for an endless runner that I can't help but love it.

Self-awareness does not a great game makeIt will definitely fade, though.

It's a wonderful display of self-awareness that I'd love to see more of.

Despite my less-than-enthusiastic intro, I'm still very much lured to shiny new things, and this officially authorised 3D entry into the Soul Land IP is very, very shiny indeed.

And since it's all about open-world exploration, I don't doubt there'll be plenty of hidden gems to discover along the way too.

Of course, with today's standards of quality in the genre, any new endeav…

This time around, though, a new episode is joining the fray, continuing the saga of the Timeline of Fate storyline and with the aforementioned Super Epic Cookie in tow.

Aptly titled Episode 3: Unidentified Entity Detected!, the latest episode will have you grappling with timeline anomalies while struggling with weakened allies in the new Arcane Vacuum episode effect.

Plus, there's the Sugar Gnomes’ Production Help QOL feature too, because with everything that's going on, you'll need all the help you can get when speeding up crafting with idle Sugar Gnomes.

All this is to fight back against the big baddie that's threatening to throw the whole timeline into chaos - which is, of course, the Ul…

We still don’t know exactly when Steam Frame, Valve’s standalone VR headset, is set to launch, although now the company has confirmed both it and Steam Machine are slated to arrive this summer.

Valve previously aimed to launch Steam Frame and Steam Machine, its console-style PC, in early 2026.

As a part of the announcement, Valve reiterated it’s added both Steam Frame and Steam Machine to its Verified program, which lets users know how well a game works across specific Steam hardware, including Steam Deck.

While Valve says Steam Frame primarily targets wireless PC play, specific games can also feature a Steam Frame Standalone Verified badge.

Although Valve seems to be getting its ducks in a…

After speaking with Zimmermann recently, it became impossible to see Realms of Flow as just another VR meditation app.

That project eventually led to Conscious Existence, the stereoscopic VR short film that would shape everything that followed.

2D "crop" of Conscious ExistenceWhy Conscious Existence Still ConnectsEven today, Conscious Existence remains one of the more memorable immersive experiences available in VR.

Realms of Flow is available on Meta Quest for standalone VR, as well as Steam and the Meta PC VR Store for PC VR.

Spymaster continues Innerspace's sterling track record for integrating unique mechanics into what would otherwise be run-of-the-mill gameplay.

CleanSheet Soccer 2, a redesign of the Quest-exclusive CleanSheet Soccer Pro built specifically for PlayStation VR2, launches on Sony's VR platform next week.

Supernatural won’t be in ‘maintenance mode’ for long, because Meta announced it’s effectively spun out the VR fitness app into an independent company, Supernatural Health.

The founders and coaches behind Supernatural are parting ways with Meta.

That said, the upcoming version of Supernatural will include all original coaches “back on day one,” as well as new workouts and future features.

In late 2021, Meta announced it was acquiring Within, the studio behind Supernatural, for a whopping $400 million.

It wasn’t a smooth transition though, as the deal quickly drew the ire of the US Federal Trade Commission, which claimed Meta was unfairly monopolizing the VR fitness space.

Following a May 6 shadow drop, I Am Cat scampers up to the number one spot for PlayStation VR2.

On May 6, I Am Cat surprise launched onto PlayStation VR2, and it seems it's done well in its first month on Sony's headset.

I Am Cat has claimed the number one most-downloaded spot in both North American and EU markets.

It's also available on Quest, Steam, and Pico.

PiEEG, a Scotland-based brain-computer interface (BCI) startup, announced it’s launching a facial interface for Quest headsets that aims to turn your brain signals and facial micro-expressions into real-time avatar control.

PiEEG has specialized in BCI since it was founded by Dr. Ildar Rakhmatulin in 2022, specifically to provide low-cost solutions for researchers, developers and hobbyists.

Now the company says it’s getting ready to launch a Kickstarter soon for its PiEEG XR, a neural facial interface for Quest.

Valve released a native visionOS client for the flatscreen version of Steam Link, with 4K 120FPS support, replacing the need to use the iPad app on Apple Vision Pro.

Since the launch of the original Vision Pro, the iPad version of Steam Link has been available on visionOS through the App Store.

The iPad app also limited the window's resolution to that of an iPad, around 2732×1537 for 16:9 content.

Valve also says the native visionOS client "improves network performance" compared to the iPad app.

Testing the app out on Vision Pro, I found the 4K quality to be a massive improvement over the iPad app, and the latency feels lower too.

KRVR, a $15 visionOS app, lets you play any SteamVR game from your PC on Apple Vision Pro with foveated streaming.

This is not the only visionOS app for playing your SteamVR games, and nor is it even the first to support the foveated streaming feature Apple introduced in visionOS 26.4.

As with Clear XR, KRVR's developer leverages Nvidia's CloudXR SDK, which has full ready-to-go support for Apple's foveated streaming feature.

Note that foveated streaming is not the same as foveated rendering, though the two techniques can be used alongside each other.

Foveated rendering happens in the game engine, while foveated streaming is applied to already finished frames.
