Польские парламентарии тоже заметили, что релиз снова куда-то переехал — и явно этим недовольны.

Rockstar Games недавно объявила, что релиз долгожданной GTA VI снова откладывается — теперь до 19 ноября 2026 года.

Если люди не выйдут на улицы после чего-то подобного, я не знаю, что произойдёт.

Интернет мгновенно подхватил момент — геймеры по всему миру шутят, что теперь разочарование от переноса GTA VI стало официально политическим делом.

Игроки обрушили рейтинг Sacred 2 Remaster из-за ужасной оптимизации

Вчера сотрудники SparklingBit, Funatics и Nukklear при поддержке THQ Nordic выпустили ремастер Sacred 2: Fallen Angel, и прямо на старте геймеры встретили его волной критики.

На момент публикации новости Sacred 2 Remaster имеет чуть более 500 отзывов в Steam, из которых положительными являются лишь 44 %.

Отмечается, что Sacred 2 Gold работает гораздо стабильнее, а с фанатскими модификациями она намного превосходит ремастер.

Извините, но я играл в Sacred 2 Gold всего за ОДИН ДЕНЬ до этого релиза, чтобы освежить память к выходу ремастера.

Я подумал: «он ведь будет только лучше того, что я только что прошёл, верно?».

На фоне неутихающих споров генеральный директор Nexon Ли Джон Хён (Lee Jung-hun), чья компания владеет Embark Studios, высказался о роли ИИ в разработке игр.

Прежде всего, я думаю, важно понимать, что сегодня каждая игровая компания уже использует искусственный интеллект.

Ли Джон ХёнРуководитель признал, что ИИ помогает повысить эффективность в создании и поддержке игр, но не стал напрямую комментировать ситуацию с ARC Raiders.

Между тем геймеры и актёры озвучки критикуют Embark за то, что студия использовала ИИ для озвучки персонажей и сэкономила на голосах живых актёров.

Nintendo прямо заявляла, что не планирует использовать генеративный ИИ в своих проектах.

Сюжетная развилка перед вторым актом в The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings позволяет пройти по взаимоисключающим квестовым веткам и побывать на противоположных сторонах местного конфликта.

В беседе с PC Gamer он пояснил, что главным отличием сиквела от гиперуспешной третьей части является структура.

Сделать что-то похожее на второй акт сиквела и сохранить размах этого события в третьей части уже не казалось возможным из-за выросших масштабов.

Кроме того, в The Witcher 3 разработчики больше концентрировались не на доступных выборах, а на выстраивании крепкого повествования, которое не должно провисать в условиях обширного «опенворлда».

В настоящее время в CDPR кипит работа сразу над нескольким…

Тем временем Плащ и Кинжал наделяют катану Соколиного глаза энергией света и тьмы.

В комбо с Росомахой и Фениксом добавят Чёрную вдову, благодаря чему она научится лечить своих особыми пулями и ранить чужих неподалёку.

How about that Steam Machine, 'ey?

The Steam Deck has its fancy verified badge that certifies that a game runs on the handheld, and it turns out that same badge is one that'll come in handy for the Steam Machine.

Valve explains that its verified program will be expanded to include both the Steam Machine and the Steam Frame, promising more details soon.

As they note, "if your games are already Steam Deck Verified, they'll automatically be verified on Steam Machine."

Essentially, it does sound like there will be unique verified badges for the Machine and the Frame, but any games you've hoarded for your Steam Deck thus far that are Steam Deck verified are already ready to go on that Steam Mach…

Today's is quite a surprising one, coming in the form of Jagex willingly removing some microtransactions from RuneScape after more than 120,000 people voted in favour of having them permanently removed from the game.

To be frank, I am genuinely unsure if I have… well, ever seen a company do this simply because everyone hated them so much.

It's not just the Treasure Hunter microtransactions that are being removed, it's the entire system and then some.

Come January 19th, 2026, the day this update will be implemented, 225 direct XP and skilling related items will also be gone from the game.

A hearty congrats to those that voted for the removal of these microtransactions, though.

Today they released a new patch for the RPG, containing a bunch of fixes, and offered up a small roadmap of improvements and DLC to come.

Let's start with what this patch, patch 1.0.4, offers up.

Aside from that, there's just a whole bunch of general fixes.

This one will add in an FOV slider and motion blue toggle, and progress saving should be improved too.

It's been framed as a sort of new game plus type situation, just one where you can toggle specific things like your starting health or enemy awareness.

It runs SteamOS, like the Steam Machine and Steam Deck.

Image credit: Rock Paper ShotgunThe implications for this compatibility breakthrough stretch far beyond the Steam Frame’s straps.

The Steam Deck was originally pitched as something that can play your existing Steam games, but on a handheld.

The new Steam Machine is intended as something that can play your existing Steam games, but in a living room.

And now the Frame is promising to play your existing Steam games, but half an inch from your irises.

Except the new Steam Controller has more to it than merely transplanting the Deck inputs to a homebound gamepad.

This new Steam Controller is, therefore, about being all things to all gamepaddists.

Rather than copy the Steam Deck controls wholesale, Valve's engineers have made several technical improvements, especially over the base Deck.

It unsurprisingly works with the Steam Machine and the Steam Frame, Valve’s new hybrid VR headset, but Bluetooth and USB connection options ensure wider compatibility.

The rear buttons are raised, so they’re easier to press than those of the Steam Deck.

Remember Steam Machines?

The Steam Machine can’t get too haughty about outperforming a docked Deck, either, as it essentially owes the handheld for its operating system.

Obviously, it’s not as fully modular as a traditional PC, and again, I can’t see this Steam Machine replacing anyone’s full-blooded desktop rig.

Hopefully there’s one other lesson that the Steam Machine can learn from its handheld cousin: the simple, timeless appeal of undercutting the competition.

You may have heard that a Valve hardware announcement was on the cards, but the Steam custodians’ biggest metal-and-circuits reveal since the Steam Deck actually concerns a power trio: a new Steam Machine, a new Steam Controller, and the Steam Frame hybrid VR headset.

I’ve had some quality hands-on time with them myself, having been mysteriously summoned to Valve HQ late last month (flying/accommodating on our own dime, before anyone gets clever).

If you liked the handheld then... well, you might not necessarily like the Steam Machine, Controller, or Frame, but you’ll have already read the shorthand on where they’re coming from.

The Steam Machine is set to be Valve’s most powerful in-house …

Speaking on the Shooter Monthly podcast (via TheGamePost) of Helldivers 2, Sides said that "The problem is, Helldivers 2 can be called an extraction shooter, but it’s not.

I hate the genre name of extraction shooter.

When I was working on Marathon, I was working with marketing, dying to be like, 'Can we please create a different genre name,' because extraction shooter is so dumb.

"So, the terminology of the genre is already terrible; it really makes it hard to compare these games," Sides said.

That's kind of the real issue, that marketing is incredibly genre-forward, and part of why I think Marathon has struggled to find an identity.

Microsoft is a four trillion dollar company, thanks in large part to recent investor fever over generative AI technology.

Sweeney and Epic have a vested interest in upselling generative AI themselves.

All told, we may perhaps be inclined to look suspiciously upon his pronouncements about whether it's fitting to criticise generative AI in reviews.

The thing is, though, he absolutely isn't wrong to call the conversation around generative AI political.

I'm far from the first to have said it, and others have said it far better, but it's important to reiterate that the biggest budget generative AI tools are a mechanism of class war.

GTA 6 developers Rockstar Games have had legal claims filed against them by the UK's IWGB union, with the latter alleging that Rockstar have so far declined to meet with them for negotiations following the recent firing of over 30 workers.

The IWGB, meanwhile, have accused Rockstar of union busting.

That brings us to today, and this filing of claims by the IWGB, as outlined in a blog post.

The claims accuse Rockstar of "unfairly dismissing staff for union activity and blacklisting its members".

Accordingly, we have now issued formal legal claims against Rockstar on behalf of the Claimants."

It adds variety, but I wish Anno 117 did more with this blend of cultures.

Anno 117 has tools for mass demolishing, relocating, copying and upgrading your buildings, and you can redesign entire neighbourhoods in seconds.

I can't help but compare Anno 117 to Anno 1800, which, after several years of chunky DLC, is one of the best and most complete city-builders of all time.

Obsidian have "made adjustments to side burn facial hair so that it no longer disappears at certain angles".

Codename Deckard, Valve's long-rumoured standalone VR headset, is here.

While the first two were room-scale VR headsets that used external tracking, the Frame is a standalone headset that uses inside-out tracking instead.

The Steam Machine?

See that square plate on the front of the Steam Machine?

That's why the Steam Machine has feet to ensure vents underneath the device can breathe, plus extra inlets along the entire perimeter of the magnetic face plate.

Cooling is just one part of the equation, of course, but it could be a critical one if the Steam Machine is aiming to deliver console-beating performance at a similar price point.

Valve's new Steam hardware has been developed based on the team's experience of PC gaming, rather than comparing to other console makers like PlayStation or Xbox.

The company has today announced new Steam hardware, namely a standalone Steam Frame VR headset, a Steam Machine console, and Steam Controller.

But rather than entering the console space to compete with established companies, Valve's new hardware is an evolution of PC gaming.

Microsoft has just released its ROG Ally X handheld in partnership with Asus, seemingly in direct competition with Valve's Steam Deck.

Valve's new Steam hardware will be released next year, though release dates are currently unknown.

It's also, Valve hopes, a game-changer when it comes to bringing some of the few remaining incompatible PC titles to Valve's platform.

Eurogamer asked as part of the hardware preview if there had been any progress in regards to helping games requiring kernel-level anti-cheat to operate on the Linux-based SteamOS.

You can think of the Steam Machine as a more powerful Steam Deck without the screen or buttons, but there are some unique TV-focused features and thoughtful customisation options that make this an even more enticing concept.

The Steam Machine carries a name that might be familiar if you read PC gaming news a decade ago.

The Steam Controller likewise retained support in Steam, but new units were discontinued a year later.

Interestingly, the Steam Machine uses the same compact 2230 SSD form factor as the Steam Deck, though the Machine can also use cheaper, full-size 2280 SSDs.

All told, Valve says that the Steam Machine is six times more powerful than the Steam Deck.

You can also move games directly from a Steam Deck or Steam Frame if they're installed on a MicroSD card.

However, they've been tilted inwards slightly to suit this form factor, and you'll find other ergonomic tweaks compared to both the original Steam Controller and the Steam Deck.

The Steam Machine has the necessary 2.4GHz radio built in, but for other devices you'll want to use the included dongle.

Essentially, Valve will be self-distributing just like it did with the Steam Deck.

"For us, it's important to just keep making Steam distribution better and better - and distribute times, add regions and things like that.

"So we're continually working on improving Steam distribution for hardware."

Valve has today announced new Steam hardware, namely a standalone Steam Frame VR headset, as well as Steam Machine console and Steam Controller.

The Steam Controller might appear to be just the gamepad that is built to accompany the Steam Machine and augment the Steam Frame, but Valve's plans are a fair bit grander.

After all, the Steam Controller will work with any PC, just like any PC gamepad will work on the Steam Machine, and it's a much-anticipated sequel for the small but passionate group that treasured the original Steam Controller.

The 2025 Steam Controller feels a lot more mainstream than its predecessor, with a classic Xbox-style layout.

While the Steam Controller communicates with the Steam Machine without the included dongle, you'll want to retain it for easier charging as it clips to the back of the gamepad magnetically…

"Unacceptable and unlawful" - GTA 6 developer Rockstar hit with legal claim from UK trade union following alleged unfair dismissal of staff
"Unacceptable and unlawful" - GTA 6 developer Rockstar hit with legal claim from UK trade union following alleged unfair dismissal of staff "Unacceptable and unlawful" - GTA 6 developer Rockstar hit with legal claim from UK trade union following alleged unfair dismissal of staff

The UK trade union Independent Workers' Union of Great Britain (IWGB) has issued a legal claim against Rockstar following what it believes is the unfair dismissal of staff.

As we reported earlier this month, the Grand Theft Auto maker has been accused of union busting after it fired 30-40 Rockstar staff who were purportedly involved in union activities.

Now the IWGB is fighting back with a legal claim, with members alleging these dismissals "amount to victimisation and collective dismissal linked to trade union activity".

Employers like Rockstar would do well to understand that private spaces such as trade union Discord servers have protections, and that their company's contractual clauses …

Nintendo has revealed the first full trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.

The follow-up to the record-breaking The Super Mario Bros. Movie from 2023, it's heavily inspired by the Super Mario Galaxy games (of course, as the name suggests).

Ahead of the film, Nintendo recently released ports of the Wii classics Super Mario Galaxy 1 + 2 on Switch and Switch 2.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie remains the biggest video game adaptation ever in terms of worldwide gross, though it's closely followed by the more recent A Minecraft Movie.

Nintendo will surely be hoping the Galaxy sequel smashes its own record.

But the label is deeply flawed, according to former Bungie product manager Chris Sides, who worked on extraction shooter Marathon.

"I hate the genre name of extraction shooter.

because 'extraction shooter' is so dumb.

Sides said the "terrible" terminology also makes it very hard to compare games within the extraction shooter genre.

When you say 'the extraction genre', it should hit your spot.

Студия Sharkmob готовится провести увольнения в подразделении в Мальме.

Она пояснила, что пока не может делиться такой информацией, поскольку все еще ведет переговоры с самими кандидатами на увольнение и профсоюзом.

Хотя игра перестала получать новый контент еще в 2023 году, геймеры до сих пор могли проводить в ней время.

Дата его релиза пока не объявлялась, и неясно, как на проекте скажутся проблемы в студии.

Разбираемся, что вынуждает компанию пересматривать свои инвестиции, что объединяет пострадавшие команды и насколько этот тренд применим к остальным китайским издателям.

За последние 12 месяцев как минимум шесть студий пострадали от решения NetEase провести переоценку своего западного портфолио.

Неизвестно, сколько денег NetEase вложила в каждую студию.

Зато четко видно, что объединяет эти команды.

«Земский собор»Подробнее о ситуации ведомство рассказало в ответ на обращение депутата Госдумы РФ Антона Горелкина.

В письме ему глава Росстандарта Антон Шалаев пояснил, что игровой ГОСТ действительно готовится, вот только как минимум в текущей редакции он распространяется не на видеоигры, а исключительно на детские игрушки.

По словам Шалаева, Роскачество начало работать над ГОСТом еще в прошлом году, и с тех пор тот претерпел немало изменений.

Упоминались ли видеоигры в предыдущих редакциях проекта ГОСТа — в письме не уточняется.

Из ее доклада следовало, что новый национальный стандарт будет касаться прежде всего визуальных образов и проверять видеоигры и игрушки на наличие жестоких сцен.

Привлечение актеров Каткофф оценил в 15 млн долларов, еще 5 млн долларов ушло на производство, монтаж и логистику.

Исходя из этого, расходы только на привлечение пользователей составили 65 млн долларов.

Всего, отмечает Михаил, на разработку, раскрутку и поддержку игры у Supercell могло уйти почти 150 млн долларов.

За два года оперирования выручка Squad Busters составила в районе 70-80 млн долларов.

Коллаборации с брендами: почему бизнес массово осваивает геймдев Коллаборации с брендами: почему бизнес массово осваивает геймдев

Речь идет о двух ключевых группах: взрослые геймеры (25-35 лет) с устойчивым доходом и, что важно, молодые геймеры.

Интеграция — это инструмент для роста лояльности, генерации лидов и, как показывают примеры Gucci и Louis Vuitton, полноценный источник дохода от продаж цифровых товаров.

Практика подтверждает, что виртуальные товары могут иметь такую же высокую стоимость, что и физические.

Нативность: органичное вписывание в игровой мир через предметы или миссии — яркий пример, «Пятерочка» в игре «Русы против Ящеров 2».

Успех этой коллаборации подтверждает важный сдвиг: игры окончательно превратились из экспериментальной площадки в полноценный канал с измеримой отдачей.

Суд в США пока не устраивает мировое соглашение между Google и Epic Games Суд в США пока не устраивает мировое соглашение между Google и Epic Games

На прошлой неделе Google и Epic Games направили в суд Калифорнии проект своего мирового соглашения.

По словам Донато, формально Google и Epic Games просят изменить уже вынесенный ранее судебный вердикт.

«Единственное изменение, которое я сейчас вижу — это то, что Epic Games и Google, два заклятых врага, которые много лет яростно сражались друг с другом в этом зале суда, внезапно стали лучшими друзьями», — заявил Донато.

Судья также напомнил, что Google весь прошлый год подавала апелляции по делу с Epic Games.

Как пояснил Донато, на таком фоне он не уверен в том, что предложенные условия перемирия действительно позволят решить проблему с монополией Google Play.

Но зато известно, что за первые три дня Ghost of Tsushima купили 2,4 млн раз, а через четыре месяца она преодолела рубеж в 5 млн копий.

В исследовании аналитики сосредоточились только на тех тайтлах, которые вышли в Steam в 2022-2025 годы и собрали хотя бы 10 отзывов.

Если посмотреть чуть уже, то в основном разработчики в Steam делают игры за 50-200 тысяч долларов.

Только у 20% игр бюджет оказался выше миллиона долларов.

В среднем у игр с 3D-графикой бюджет в 16 раз больше, чем у 2D-игр.

Но если оставить в списке только игры с бюджетом свыше 10 млн долларов, то их будет уже 50%.

Steam's new VR headset, Steam Frame, will support Android games
Steam's new VR headset, Steam Frame, will support Android games Steam's new VR headset, Steam Frame, will support Android games

Valve has announced its new wireless VR headset, Steam Frame, will support Android games.

This is because Steam Frame can use the same Android APKs developers already use to port mobile titles to Android-based devices like Meta Quest.

Valve is even launching a Steam Frame developer kit program to support this, stating that while SteamOS differs from Android, it will nonetheless be able to run Android apps on its Arm-based Qualcomm Snapdragon chip without needing translation.

Earlier today, Valve announced three new hardware products: a new Steam Frame VR headset and controllers, a new Steam controller, and a next-gen Steam Machine.

Specific pricing and launch dates have yet to be finalised.

Union files formal legal claims against Rockstar amid union-busting accusations
Union files formal legal claims against Rockstar amid union-busting accusations Union files formal legal claims against Rockstar amid union-busting accusations

After accusing Rockstar of union busting after the studio reportedly dismissed 30 to 40 employees last Thursday (October 30), The Independent Workers' Union of Great Britain (IWGB) has issued claims against the developer for unfairly dismissing staff.

Now, claiming Rockstar has "declined" to meet with the union, IWGB believes "these dismissals amount to victimisation and collective dismissal linked to trade union activity."

Accordingly, we have now issued formal legal claims against Rockstar on behalf of the Claimants.

"Our members allege that Rockstar's conduct constitutes trade union victimisation and blacklisting."

Employers like Rockstar would do well to understand that private spaces s…

The makers of Dispatch thought it'd take three years to hit their sales target – but they're 'on track' to hit it in three months.

"I think it'll be really interesting to see who tries to pick this up and follow what we're doing," says Nick Herman, creative director.

"Because I think if you have the wrong type of content or the wrong type of game, it might not work.

"And it's like, yeah, but we look at that game and we think: 'the creative was bad'.

Destiny 2 falls short of Sony's expectations after Bungie acquisition
Destiny 2 falls short of Sony's expectations after Bungie acquisition Destiny 2 falls short of Sony's expectations after Bungie acquisition

Sony leadership has discussed its expectations of Destiny 2 following its $3.6 million acquisition of Bungie in 2022.

In its latest financial results, the Japanese firm recorded an impairment loss against a portion of Bungie's assets in relation to Destiny 2.

Despite this, Tao did note that Sony's live service game segment accounted "for more than 40% of [its] first-party software revenue."

Following the publication of its Q1 results in August, Tao said Sony expected Marathon to launch "within the fiscal year."

"Our view is that, compared to conventional console life cycles, and looking at the PS4 life cycle, it seems to be getting longer and longer," said Tao.

Following the launch of Arc Raiders – and the ongoing debate regarding the use of generative AI – Nexon CEO Junghun Lee has said "it's important to assume every game company" is using the technology.

Speaking to Gamespark (translated by Automaton), Lee said "AI has definitely improved efficiency in both game production and live service operations" when asked about the impact generative AI has during development.

"I think it's important to assume that every game company is now using AI," he noted.

"So it's a wide umbrella, but the experience of the game doesn't use any generative AI."

Tencent-owned studio Sharkmob has confirmed planned job losses at its Malmo studio, which is currently working on sci-fi extraction shooter Exoborne.

The company's London studio was effectively closed in 2024, after local staff were made redundant following the cancellation of an unannounced game.

In a statement, Sharkmob said that "planned changes to its organizational structure" were taking place against the backdrop of "a challenging environment for games developers".

Funcom laid off staff following the launch of Dune: Awakening.

The company invested heavily in Western studios in recent years, acquiring Sumo Digital and taking a minority stake in Fatshark.

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.

Nigel Franks from Snowed In Studios on the state of external development, and why video games are a relationship business Nigel Franks from Snowed In Studios on the state of external development, and why video games are a relationship business

What I found with the games business specifically is that it is one of the most relationship based businesses I’ve ever seen.

They know the style of work we do, they know the quality of work we provide.

What has changed has been amping up our business development over the last year because of the pendulum swings in the games industry.

I think in terms of business development, nothing beats a face-to-face start.

XDS is fundamental for us as a business, even if we’re not doing straight business development, just connecting with our clients is the most important thing.

What do you think are the biggest external development trends that are being discussed today?

One of the most challenging things that we have is that external development is not just important to the games industry … it’s non-negotiable.

I was in my 30s before I even knew external development existed as a job.

We’ve had tens of thousands of people, either leave the games industry temporarily, or permanently as they seek employment elsewhere.

When it comes to external development, many of the people affected are people that are really good at this discipline.

27″ PlayStation Gaming Monitor Announced, Will Launch Next Year in the US and Japan 27″ PlayStation Gaming Monitor Announced, Will Launch Next Year in the US and Japan

During the State of Play Japan broadcast that aired a few hours ago, Sony announced a 27-inch PlayStation Gaming Monitor that will launch next year in the United States and Japan.

High Dynamic Range (HDR) support with Auto HDR Tone Mapping, which automatically adjusts HDR settings during setup on PS5 and PS5 Pro consoles, ensuring a rich and vivid picture quality.

The PlayStation Gaming Monitor is equipped with two 2.1 HDMI IN ports and one 1.4 DisplayPort IN port for compatibility with PlayStation 5, PC, Mac, or other devices.

Spec-wise, the PlayStation Gaming Monitor is undoubtedly a step down from Sony's Inzone M10S OLED and M9 II monitors released last year.

Sony Is Launching a Cheaper, Japanese-Language Only Digital PS5 in Japan
Sony Is Launching a Cheaper, Japanese-Language Only Digital PS5 in Japan Sony Is Launching a Cheaper, Japanese-Language Only Digital PS5 in Japan

Also, just like the Japan-only variant of the Switch 2, it's slightly cheaper than getting the standard version.

From that angle, it makes perfect sense to try persuading anyone who hasn't bought in on the PS5 yet in Japan with a new, cheaper version they can run out and buy.

Currently, a standard digital PS5 in Japan costs ¥72,980 ($475), though this new regional variant will drop the price to ¥55,000 ($355), which is more than a solid discount.

But that's still more expensive than what the price of the console when it launched in 2020, which was ¥39,980 ($260).

It'll be interesting to see if Sony brings this same tactic to the PS5 Pro, to extend the reach of its higher-end model.

As announced in late October, Bethesda released Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition yesterday for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S|X, as a way to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the original launch.

However, just like with Skyrim Anniversary Edition four years ago, this new edition breaks many essential mods that users had based their modlists around.

These are workers who just want to go back to work, to work on a game that they love.

Rockstar faces legal action from UK union after firing more than 30 employees last week: 'We are confident that what we’ve seen here is plain and simple union busting'
Rockstar faces legal action from UK union after firing more than 30 employees last week: 'We are confident that what we’ve seen here is plain and simple union busting' Rockstar faces legal action from UK union after firing more than 30 employees last week: 'We are confident that what we’ve seen here is plain and simple union busting'

The action was filed after Rockstar refused to meet and "resolve the matter through negotiation," the IWGB's legal team said in a statement.

Instead, Rockstar has maintained the termination of the employees it fired last week in a manner the union described as "unacceptable and unlawful."

Our members allege that Rockstar’s conduct constitutes trade union victimisation and blacklisting."

The dismissals in question occurred on October 31, when more than 30 Rockstar employees in the UK and Canada were fired without warning.

Rockstar parent company Take-Two Interactive denied the claim and said the employees were fired for "gross misconduct."

Are you wearing the Ryder skin in its black and orange styling?

The exact skin in question is Ryder, one of the outfits given away on the first Arc Raiders battle pass.

More specifically, it's the orange and black version of the Ryder skin with its helmet goggled off and its headgear toggled on.

Mark your calendars: World of Warcraft will finally have player housing after 21 years when The War Within's final patch arrives next month Mark your calendars: World of Warcraft will finally have player housing after 21 years when The War Within's final patch arrives next month

A patch is coming on December 2 that will act as a prologue to the Midnight expansion, and it'll mark the long, long-awaited arrival of player housing to the MMO.

If the Midnight beta is any indication though, player housing will be the real draw of the patch.

Endeavors, the events that let players spruce up their neighborhoods together, won't be around until Midnight is here.

The Midnight beta just started this week and will likely continue for another month before we finally get a release date.

Not only are combat mods going away almost entirely, but many of the classes are becoming simpler as a result.

Steam Machine will start shipping to Australia on the same day as the rest of the world, marking a brave new era for Valve Steam Machine will start shipping to Australia on the same day as the rest of the world, marking a brave new era for Valve

Valve announced a new range of hardware overnight, in the form of the Steam Frame, Steam Machine and Steam Controller.

After all, Valve is famously slow to release its hardware into Australia: the Valve Index took a year, only to be thinly available at some EB Games outlets.

Worse, the Steam Deck took more than two years.

That means for Australians, the Steam Frame, Steam Machine and Steam Controller will all be purchasable directly from Steam at the same time as all those other regions.

PC Gamer's hardware team has extensive coverage of Valve's new hardware line-up, ranging from raw specs through to hands-on experience.

A colleague and I recently travelled to Valve to get a behind-the-scenes look at the company's upcoming product launches.

Before we entered the building, we were already discussing one of the products yet to be announced, the Steam Frame.

This time, a trademark for the name 'Steam Frame' gave away the Deckard project's real name ahead of our visit, but Deckard rumours have been rife for years.

But is this some sort of clever scheme by Valve to drum up support or test out the popularity of ideas on dedicated fans?

"Everybody assumes that we have some sort of like grand plan with our leaks," says Gabe Rowe, "and it's literally just somebody fat fingering something."

It's not exactly a surprising outcome, but it is now official: RuneScape players have voted overwhelmingly to remove the game's 'Treasure Hunter' microtransaction system, and so it'll be cut out completely on January 19, 2026.

"The removal of Treasure Hunter is just one part of a wider transformation across Jagex, which is seeing a renewed commitment to delivering deeper value, greater fairness and long-term improvements for players across all our games."

Treasure Hunter is a daily activity in RuneScape, launched in 2014, that enables players to earn "XP boosts, gameplay-skipping items and in-game gold."

The Steam Frame has a heap of new features to dig into, but I want to focus on one here: foveated streaming.

The Steam Frame offers a few ways to play games, both locally on its own Arm chip and streamed from a nearby gaming PC.

As the name suggests, foveated streaming is used during the latter.

I've used the Steam Frame and I never noticed any low-resolution areas in my vision.

I had almost forgotten about the foveated streaming until it was mentioned to me.

It's a big power move by the Steam team, and one of the first to congratulate them was none other than Phil Spencer, the head of Microsoft's gaming division.

"Gaming moves forward when players and developers have more ways to play and create, especially across open platforms," Spencer wrote on X.

"Expanding access across PC, console, and handheld devices reflects a future built on choice, core values that have guided Xbox's vision from the start.

"As one of the largest publishers on Steam, we welcome new options for players to access games everywhere.

With the launch of the Steam Frame, Valve's new VR headset, SteamOS will be made available for Arm-based systems.

SteamOS will receive Arm support with the launch of the Steam Frame sometime next year.

The chip powering the Steam Frame isn't unique to the headset, however.

Though if a game isn't natively developed for Android/Arm, there's a chance it'll still run on the Steam Frame through a translation layer called FEX.

To sum up everything in this article: SteamOS on Arm, games developed for Arm are coming to Steam, Steam is already on Apple Silicon (Arm), FEX runs x86 games on Arm, and Steam does not yet run natively on Windows on Arm.

Valve has packed the new Steam Controller with multiple ways to control a PC game from the comfort of your sofa.

Three for the price of… well, we don't know the price of the Steam Controller yet.

Though I hadn't considered gyro controls for my gaming PC prior to actually using the Steam Controller, and turns out, neither had most of Valve.

Valve wants you to know that the Steam Frame is not the Index 2: 'we're trying to do something new with this'
Valve wants you to know that the Steam Frame is not the Index 2: 'we're trying to do something new with this' Valve wants you to know that the Steam Frame is not the Index 2: 'we're trying to do something new with this'

The Valve Index is a popular headset by most measures, currently used by roughly 15% of players on Steam to play VR.

That's one of the reasons we changed the name from Valve index to Steam Frame, because we're trying to do something new with this," says Jeremy Selan, an engineer at Valve, during our visit to the company.

Valve sees the Steam Frame as both an accessory and a gaming PC.

What the Steam Frame lacks, however, are the Index's BMR speakers, arguably its best feature, and the novel approach to hand tracking—though the Steam Frame does still offer five-finger capacitive sensing for a similar effect.

So, the Steam Frame is resolutely not the Valve Index 2.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, Half-Life diehards, but Valve isn't announcing Half-Life 3 today.

This may be the biggest news day of the decade for Valve in terms of simultaneous product announcements.

: A compact living room gaming box (they're back!)

Unfortunately you'll notice that none of those things are Half-Life 3.

Just keep in mind we've had almost 20 years of Half-Life 3 disappointments, rumors, and "confirmed" moments that turned out to be nothing.

And I'm no expert, but I'd say that the flashy action of Valhalla Survival isn't always strictly true to Scandinavian folklore.

You'll also be able to show off your survival prowess in new ways, with the Stage Survival Record, which means even if you die in a stage, you'll be able to display your survival time.

This is set to run from November 14th to 18th on the Valhalla Survival official social media channels.

Either that or there are some people with serious megalomaniacal ambitions who'll be happy to see it make its way to Apple Arcade.

Yes, coming from developer Massive Monster and publisher Devolver Digital, Cult of the Lamb is set to arrive on Apple Arcade come December 2nd.

Playing as the titular lamb in a world of fuzzy, anthropomorphic creatures, you're saved from certain death by an eldritch deity.

But where Inside focused on side-scrolling stealth, Timelie takes a decidedly more, well, timely angle on your escape from a legion of evil robots.

Timelie, now available to buy on mobile, and its story is as vague as you might expect from the plot of any indie puzzler.

You play a young girl and her pet cat, who wake up together in a mysterious underground laboratory staffed with killer robots.

Unfortunately for you, the robots guarding the facility aren't exactly predictable, and you won't be making it out by wits alone.

And if Timelie doesn't tease your brain enough, then there are plenty of other ways to give your mind a workout on mobile.

Not that it's at all unsuccessful, if their upcoming collab with blockbuster film The Running Man is any evidence.

The Running Man is an adaptation of the Stephen King story, which describes a near-future setting of mass unemployment and inequality (that's sci-fi?).

In it, a game show called The Running Man offers a huge payout, but sees the contestants hunted across the country by a ruthless band of assassins for the enjoyment of the viewers.

This city-wide mission will have you walking and experiencing a new story connected to The Running Man.

Ingress was one of Niantic's first major efforts in the world of AR, and it's celebrating its 13th anniversary this year.

Gunnar Monterey Glasses review - "Sleek design, perfect to stop eye strain"
Gunnar Monterey Glasses review - "Sleek design, perfect to stop eye strain" Gunnar Monterey Glasses review - "Sleek design, perfect to stop eye strain"

The amount of light that comes off of these devices can, over time, cause headaches and increase eye strain, which doesn't help anyone continue gaming.

New to their Legendary Performance Level, the Gunnar Monterey glasses are a fantastic, sleek addition to those who want style and function.

The Monterey glasses are stylish, with a frame colour called gunmetal, which looks silver and hearty despite being quite lightweight.

The Gunnar Monterey glasses came with a fold-out case, microfiber cloth, and a protective cloth pouch.

I have never been disappointed with a pair of Gunnar glasses, but this one does fit the Legendary mark that it's been given.

A magical trip down memory laneWe have compiled a list of the best retro games for Android.

It contains both freemium and paid Android titles.

Retro gaming refers to titles from the 1980s to the late 1990s.

It was an age when video gaming experienced its first boom.

The most impactful part is the older console the games ran on, such as SNES, and Nintendo 64 and also good old arcade games such as Street Fighter and Metal Slug.

Valve Isn't Currently Working On A New VR Game
Valve Isn't Currently Working On A New VR Game Valve Isn't Currently Working On A New VR Game

Valve confirmed that it's not currently working on a new first-party VR game.

Today saw Valve officially announce Steam Frame, a “streaming-first” standalone VR headset that's launching in “early 2026”.

While Alyx wasn't a launch title for the Valve Index headset, the groundbreaking title arrived less than a year after launch.

Before that, Valve had previously confirmed it was developing a flagship VR game, whereas Steam Frame will seemingly rely on existing and third-party titles.

If you've spent money on games from Steam, Valve's aim with Steam Frame is to make that library more valuable.

Arms at your sides with a controller in each hand, Valve says Steam Frame works in the dark too.

Steam Frame, Steam Machine, Steam Controller, and Steam Deck, image supplied by Valve"All of these games can support arbitrary resolutions and refresh rates," Valve's Jeremy Selan said during our briefing.

Valve plants a flag for all of Steam in VR with its first public demo of Steam Frame near the end of 2025.

In Steam Frame, Valve manages end-to-end controller inputs and frame delivery not just in the standalone mode, but when streaming from PCs like Steam Machine too.

You can find a full rundown of the design, features, and specifications of Steam Frame in our news article here.

Valve Plans to Offer Steam Frame Dev Kits to VR Developers
Valve Plans to Offer Steam Frame Dev Kits to VR Developers Valve Plans to Offer Steam Frame Dev Kits to VR Developers

It’s been multiple years coming, but Valve has finally unveiled Steam Frame, a standalone VR headset capable of streaming flatscreen and PC VR games wirelessly, and playing them natively thanks to its onboard Snadragon SoC.

The caveat: while you can technically download and play any x86 game (VR or otherwise), a lot of modern PC VR titles are resource intensive.

Realistically, individual developers will still need to optimize their games so they can work comfortably on Frame.

That, and the supplied controllers doesn’t offer your traditional VR button layout, instead putting it at input parity with Steam Deck and the new Steam Controller.

In turn, this may force some developers to crunch dow…

Valve is Open to Bringing SteamOS to Third-party VR Headsets
Valve is Open to Bringing SteamOS to Third-party VR Headsets Valve is Open to Bringing SteamOS to Third-party VR Headsets

Valve’s newly announced Steam Frame VR headset will be the first running SteamOS, the company’s Linux-based operating system.

In the same way that Valve is open to other companies building traditional devices that run SteamOS—handhelds like Lenovo Legion Go S—the company says it’s also open to other companies building VR headsets based on SteamOS.

While users can generally download and install SteamOS on unsupported hardware, possibly requiring some troubleshooting, it may be a significantly more tricky when it comes to VR headsets though.

That may only be done on a case-by-case basis with OEMs, since VR headsets are significantly more complicated than handhelds or PCs.

Unfortunately, that won’t include any new VR content from Valve, the company has confirmed.

During a recent interview with Valve, the company confirmed that it has no first-party VR content in the works, for the headset’s launch or otherwise.

Valve’s first full-fledged VR game, Half-Life: Alyx, launched within a year of the release of Index, the company’s first VR headset.

And even though Alyx wasn’t launched at the same time as the headset, Valve had publicly confirmed that a “flagship VR game” was in development even before Index was shipped.

This time around, the company has been pretty clear that users should not expect any new VR content from Valve at the launch of Steam Frame or anyti…

Want to know how Valve’s newly announced Steam Frame standalone headset stacks up against the competition?

Primarily though, Valve says it’s designed to stream PC VR games wirelessly, which it does through a Wi-Fi 6E dongle you plug straight into your computer (or the newly announced Steam Machine).

Steam Frame could also promise better comfort over Quest 3, although the jury is still out.

Valve announced Steam Frame today, but what’s the difference between the company’s first VR headset, Valve Index?

Index is a tethered PC VR headset that uses the company’s SteamVR tracking standard, requiring laser-emitting basestations that the headset and Index controllers use to localize spatially for room-scale gameplay.

That means you’ll be sacrificing those hard-earned SteamVR tracking accessories, but maybe going fully wireless will be worth it.

Valve has finally unveiled its long-awaited standalone VR headset, Steam Frame (aka ‘Deckard’).

Steam Frame is a compact standalone VR headset running a Qualcomm Snapdragon Series 8 Gen 3 (2023) CPU ARM processor, which natively runs SteamOS, Valve’s Linux-based operating system featured on the Steam Deck handheld.

Like Deck, Frame has wide compatibility to run most Steam content, including flat or PC VR games.

Granted, performance will be constrained by the standalone processing power of Frame’s Snapdragon chipset, although it marks the first big step in making PC VR content truly standalone.

Steam Frame, Valve’s next VR headset, has been announced, but the company has yet to reveal the price.

However, the company says its goal is for Frame to be cheaper than its first VR headset.

However, during an interview the company told Road to VR that it expects the price of Steam Frame to be ‘cheaper than Index’, without offering much more detail.

Unlike Index, Steam Frame has an on-board Snapdragon processor, RAM, SSD, and battery.

For that reason, it makes sense to expect that Steam Frame’s price could land under $1,000, but maybe not by much.

With just a few small changes, I can see Forefront becoming one of the more popular and successful VR games of its type.

Despite a learning curve and the occasional awkward fumbling inherent in complex VR environments, the hands-on gameplay works really well to engage you in the moment.

If the developers’ target was “Battlefield in VR,” Forefront is mostly dead on.

Combat is exciting and tense, its VR gunplay is tactile and satisfying, and its environments are dynamic and engaging.
