Представлена Final Fantasy Resonance с графикой в стиле HD-2D — трейлер, скриншоты и подробности

Ремейк Ocarina of Time, новые Xenoblade и Fire Emblem, а также Final Fantasy Resonance: что показали на Nintendo DirectВ рамках трансляции также показали много портов — например, Stellar Blade, Dragon's Dogma 2 в расширенном издании и Space Marine 2.

Игра выйдет в том числе на Switch 2.

Nintendo анонсировала ремейк The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time — релиз состоится в этом году

9 июня в 17:00 по московскому времени начнётся Nintendo Direct.

Трансляция будет идти 50 минут и, по слухам, на ней могут представить ремейк Ocarina of Time, а также тайтлы, прежде получившие возрастные рейтинги на Switch 2.

Пока без даты выхода, но с первым трейлером.

Русского языка на релизе в игре всё же не будет.

Картина стала самой кассовой за всю историю Lionsgate, и прокат ещё не закончился.

Разработчики пообещали вскоре предоставить больше новостей.

На неделе со 2-го по 9 июня Forza Horizon 6 вернула себе лидерство в чарте с платными тайтлами, спихнув 007 First Light сразу на три строчки вниз.

И пока в общем перечне всё ещё хозяйничает Counter-Strike 2, за её спиной уже маячит кандидат, жаждущий оказаться на первом месте — ремейк первой «Готики».

Грядущая The Wolf Among Us 2 тоже подчинится принятой модели, но насчёт времени выхода эпизодов в студии всё ещё не определились.

Однако совсем отказаться от эпизодической модели в компании не готовы, так как команда привержена этой формуле на идейном уровне.

Мысль коллеги развил Майкл Юм (Michael Yum), руководитель PM Studios, которая займётся изданием сиквела вместе с Telltale:Мы живём в эпоху Netflix.

Я не утверждаю, что есть единственно верный ответ, но мы попробуем предложить что-нибудь, что понравится всем и сразу.

Они глубоко встроены в наши внутренние процессы», — отметил Оттили и добавил, что Telltale вложилась в этого партнёра на годы вперёд и продолжит с ним работать.

Вскоре после публикации геймплейного трейлера Halo: Campaign Evolved на XBOX Games Showcase 2026 сотрудники Halo Studios подготовили полноценный сюжетный ролик и обнародовали системные требования.

Как уже отмечалось неоднократно, Halo: Campaign Evolved представляет собой ремейк основной кампании Halo: Combat Evolved на движке Unreal Engine 5.

Независимо от того, играете ли вы в Halo впервые или возвращаетесь на ринг спустя 25 лет, Halo: Campaign Evolved подарит вам новое приключение на все времена.

Видеокарта: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti или AMD Radeon RX 9070.

Halo: Campaign Evolved выйдет 28 июля на ПК (Steam, Microsoft Store), PlayStation 5 и Xbox Series, включая Game Pass.

Легендарный дракончик Спайро возвращается — спустя примерно 19 лет серия Spyro the Dragon получит новую самостоятельную игру Spyro: A Realm Beyond.

Руководитель студии Toys for Bob Пол Ян (Paul Yan) рассчитывает, что грядущий тайтл станет «первым из многих» и серия не угаснет вновь.

В разговоре с GamesRadar+ Ян обсудил, как при создании A Realm Beyond было важно выдержать баланс между ностальгией и инновациями.

Там же указано, что Спайро оказывается вдали от дома, но его путешествию обратно мешает армия коварных захватчиков, известных как Мусорщики.

Начать приключение в Spyro: A Realm Beyond получится весной 2027-го на ПК (Steam, Microsoft Store), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series и Nintendo Switc…

С момента анонса вестей о Marvel’s Blade практически не было.

Однако горевали фанаты недолго, так как вскоре данный слух в Arkane Studios опровергли.

Один из пользователей экс-твиттера напрямую спросил разработчиков, жива ли Marvel’s Blade.

Обеспокоенность сообщества судьбой Marvel’s Blade понятна — несмотря на то, что у Arkane получаются отличные иммёрсив-симы, последние релизы студии показывали себя не очень хорошо.

Даты выхода у Marvel’s Blade пока нет, но в прошлогоднем отчёте говорилось, что проект метит в ноябрь 2027-го.

Приключенческий экшен Mina the Hollower продолжает хорошо продаваться, всё сильнее отдаляя студию Yacht Club Games от финансовых проблем.

За примерно полторы недели тираж игры составляет уже 500 тысяч копий.

Полмиллиона опустошителей прибыли на Мрачный остров, и мы в полном шоке.

Yacht Club GamesВ недавнем интервью сооснователь и директор Yacht Club Шон Веласко (Sean Velasco) поделился, что объём продаж в 500 тысяч копий Mina the Hollower «был бы прекрасным результатом», но чтобы студия выжила, хватило бы и 200 тысяч копий.

Сам выпуск Mina the Hollower руководитель описал как «решающий момент» для будущего Yacht Club.

Джейсон Момоа (Jason Momoa) покинул актёрский состав грядущей экранизации Helldivers.

Причина ухода Момоа неизвестна.

Deadline утверждает, что фильм не отменён и Sony уже ищет новую звезду.

Напомним, режиссёром ленты выступит Джастин Лин (Justin Lin) — постановщик нескольких частей «Форсажа».

Кино по Helldivers стартует в мировом прокате 10 ноября 2027 года.

Создатели Overwatch (2023) представили анимационный трейлер новой героини.

Это Шион (Shion), вооруженная двумя пистолетами и мчащаяся по улицам Токио на высокоскоростном мотоцикле.

В ролике показали стычку героини с Соджорн — Шион умело сражается и в ближнем бою, используя особый клинок.

Героиня появится в Overwatch уже 16 июня со стартом сезона Into the Tigerʼs Den.

В скором времени Blizzard представит и геймлейный трейлер Шион.

Игра о мужественном лейтенанте Тите и других космодесантниках, борющихся с тиранидами и еретиками, изначально вышла в 2024 году на PS5, Xbox Series и PC.

Экшен Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 выйдет на Nintendo Switch 2 в конце этого года, сообщили разработчики.

А сегодня симулятор езды по бездорожью SnowRunner получил полноценную версию для Switch 2.

В честь этого разработчики опубликовали свежий трейлер.

На других платформах игра также получила обновление.

Square Enix выпустила новый тизер-трейлер Kingdom Hearts IV.

Разработчики показали Сору и других персонажей готовящегося приключения и уделили особое внимание сражениям.

Это PS5, Xbox Series, Switch 2 и PC.

Дату релиза, увы, до сих пор не называют.

Напомним, Kingdom Hearts IV, действие которой развернётся в футуристическом мегаполисе, анонсировали четыре года назад.

Многопользовательский ролевой экшен создают для Nintendo Switch 2, а этим летом в The Duskbloods стартует тестирование.

Команда FromSoftware привезла на Nintendo Direct тизер своей новой игры The Duskbloods .

Официально The Duskbloods должна выйти в 2026 году только на Nintendo Switch 2.

По слухам, разработку The Duskbloods могли одобрить ещё до выхода Sekiro в 2019 году.

Nintendo объявила, что Devil May Cry 5 выйдет на Switch 2 уже 23 июня.

А предзаказы cлэшера стартуют позже сегодня.

Изначально Devil May Cry 5 вышла в 2019 году и сейчас доступна на PlayStation, Xbox и PC.

Ролевая игра Gothic 1 Remake, вышедшая 5 июня и получившая тёплый приём аудитории, стартовала с 3 места в еженедельном чарте Steam.

Nintendo объявила, что Onimusha: Way of the Sword выйдет и на Nintendo Switch 2 — релиз экшена состоится 25 сентября. То есть одновременно с PS5, Xbox Series и PC.

«Спасибо всем ветеранам и новобранцам за невероятную поддержку.

Война за Кронус только начинается», — сказано в сообщении.

Ранее создатели рассказывали, что у Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV «особый масштаб».

Геймеры смогут сосредоточиться на умеренном количестве юнитов, отображающем масштабы игровых событий, но при этом позволяющем держать ситуацию под контролем.

Они также отмечали, что конкурируют только с воспоминаниями фанатов об оригинальной Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War и постараются воссоздать их ощущения.

В демо геймерам доступно 30 минут контента без возможности переноса прогресса в полноценную версию.

Создатели отметили, что получили множество ценных отзывов, которые помогут улучшить финальную версию экшена.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword выйдет 25 сентября на PC, PlayStation 5 и Xbox Series с полным переводом на русский язык (текст и озвучка).

Onimusha: Way of the Sword — это первая полноценная часть 25-летней серии за долгие годы.

По сюжету главный герой, одинокий самурай Миямото Мусаси, оказывается обладателем перчатки Они, мистического артефакта, который дарует обладателю силу для победы над подземным миром Генмы.

Все локации из Rebirth появятся в Revelation со значительными изменениями.

Геймдиректор ремейков Final Fantasy 7 Наоки Хамагути рассказал , что мир в Final Fantasy VII Revelation будет значительно больше Rebirth .

«Мы не хотели просто оставить все как было в Rebirth.

Final Fantasy 7 Revelation анонсировали во время Summer Game Fest 2026.

Игра не будет эксклюзивом какой-либо платформы в момент релиза и выйдет весной 2027 года на PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series и Nintendo Switch 2.

Геймдиректор The Blood of Dawnwalker Конрад Томашкевич рассказал, зачем зрителям на Summer Game Fest 2026 показали ролик с главным героем игры (не трейлер) в будущем.

Несмотря на то, что все знают о долгой жизни вампиров, многие геймеры восприняли такой «спойлер» от разработчиков ошибкой.

Томашкевич же объяснил, что The Blood of Dawnwalker изначально задумывалась как франшиза с общей историей, идущей через века.

Некоторые действия, которые игроки будут совершать в The Blood of Dawnwalker, скажутся на событиях в будущем.

Томашкевич добавил, что демонстрация фрагмента из современности стала своеобразной мотивацией для разработчиков, которые уже трудятся над продолжением.

«И у меня только одна просьба [к создателям]… Как бы это сказать помягче… Сделайте его хорошо», — сказал Томашкевич.

Дополнение выйдет в 2027 году на PS5, Xbox Series и PC.

The Blood of Dawnwalker выйдет 3 сентября на PS5, Xbox Series и PC.

В российском Steam базовая версия обойдётся в 4999 рублей (и это без перевода на русский язык).

Ему предстоит спасти семью всего за 30 дней и в процессе познать свои новые способности.

По его словам, геймеры очень остро отреагировали на решение Xbox, и сервис быстро потерял миллионы пользователей.

Отписки начались сразу после объявления о подорожании тарифов, в ходе которого Ultimate подорожал до 30 долларов в месяц вместо 20.

Директор по стратегическому развитию Xbox Мэтью Болл рассказал , как прошлогоднее повышение стоимости Xbox Game Pass сказалось на количестве подписчиков.

После смены руководства новая глава Xbox Аша Шарма пересмотрела решение и снизила стоимость подписки.

Шутеры будут появляться в подписках позже, к следующим рождественским праздникам (примерно через год).

Мрачный соулслайк Lords of the Fallen II выйдет на Nintendo Switch 2. Разработчики постараются выжать из консоли 30fpsАнонс состоялся в рамках Nintendo Direct.

Слухи не лгали: Nintendo все же анонсировала ремейк легендарной The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of TimeИгра выйдет на Switch 2 до конца 2026 года. Иных подробностей пока нет.

A Mac Mini-sized PC that's more powerful than the Raspberry Pi for nearly the same cost.

This 0.7" thin power bank boasts a generous capacity and higher output for handheld gaming PCs and laptops.

Two of the minds behind The Boys and Second Coming have joined forces for an ambitious new sci-fi satire called The Forgotten Divine. Check out our exclusive preview.

Despite the fact, and I’m aware that this might be an issue, that I wish I didn’t have to do so much goddamn fishing.

Image credit: Rock Paper Shotgun/PlaystackLuckily, About Fishing makes another, much more enjoyable use of its tackle.

Successfully bagged fish can be sent back out, line re-attached, as directly controllable scouts, allowing for subaquatic exploration and puzzle-solving.

I’m still not keen on how this offbeat troubleshooting first requires the actual fishing part, but again, there’s enough going on in About Fishing that I’m willing to endure its namesake activity.

Not many games have what it takes to show a goose eating curly fries and make it look genuinely disturbing.

So, yes, while I was sad to see no swarms of rats in Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy, I was very happy with the switch from stealth gameplay to scrappy melee.

I might have been more worried going in if I knew just how little experience developer Asobo Studio have making combat games.

"Nobody did a combat game before Resonance," lead level designer Valérian Robert told me, and then he explained how they pulled it off.

At first, the balance wasn't right.

For the record, I am terrible at Soulslike games and, while I initially struggled with Resonance's combat, I quickly learned the ropes.

Fumito Ueda, creator of Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and the Last Guardian, showed off his new game at this weekend's Summer Game Fest showcase.

Gen Atlas sees you step into the shoes of a scavenger in a desert world littered with the carcasses of vast robots.

But, have no fear, reader: Fumito Ueda says he's not become trigger happy in his old age.

"Yes it's new, and probably unexpected from me, but it's not going to be the main mechanic in this game," Ueda told PC Gamer's Wes Fenlon.

I'd be interested to see where Ueda and his team strike the balance with Gen Atlas.

In roguelite dogfighter Wind Runners, that cavalier approach is proving my downfall over and over.

The Wind Runners demo popped up on Steam over the weekend and I've been trying to complete a single run of its bullet hell dogfighting since then.

Your ship is a beautiful thing of sharp angular lines and the enemies you're going up against pilot blocky tanks and battleships.

However, while enemy fighters swarm about you firing easily dodgeable single shots, Wind Runners' larger enemies are armed with gun turrets that fi…

Star Trek: Outposts Unknown, announced yesterday and already bearing a demo, is different.

Your team of explorers aren’t trapped; in fact, if they’re anything like mine, they’ll be knocking off and back on the mothership by dinnertime.

As a starting point, though, this is one of the most relaxed introductions to a resource-managing builder I’ve played yet.

It is a sci-fi settlement builder, and if I know anything from other sci-fi settlement builders, it’s that nothing gets done if I can’t enforce backbreaking labour on sleepless underlings.

You can try the demo for yourself on Steam; it should also help kill time until we see or hear more of the other Star Trek game to come out of Not E3 2…

Alkimia Interactive and THQ's Gothic remake launched over the weekend, and many are the complaints that the RPG's revised lockpicking system is far too hard.

I know, right - tricky lockpicking in a game set in a giant prison!

Please excuse me while I lift both hands from the keyboard and strenuously knead my face into a shocked expression.

If you keep sliding a gate past the first or seventh hole, you'll bust your picks.

"We are monitoring the sentiment about lockpicking which seems very mixed," they write on Steam in a brief post about launch bugs.

So it's not great news for me that Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy has dropped its stealth roots in favour of combat inspired by the most exacting third-person melee games.

That's not a problem, nor is it exactly new to the Plague Tale games, which have always featured environmental puzzles.

At the bottom of the pit, I discover an elevator that takes me to the first sign I'm in a Plague Tale game.

Image credit: Focus Home Interactive / Asobo StudioThough, immediately after this familiar sight you're thrown into something new to Plague Tale.

That describes many games, I know, and that may be unfair, but I have higher expectations of a Plague Tale game.

Of all the Resident Evil remakes to burst forth from Capcom like zombie-spawn in recent years, I am most intrigued by the just-unveiled Resident Evil Veronica.

That said, it does open with a cutscene featuring Claire Redfield performing gun fu and running from helicopter turret fire.

There's an awful lot to develop in Code: Veronica, which featured one of franchise's weirder plots (even by Resident Evil standards).

Beware, dear reader, as spoilers for the original Code: Veronica (now nearly three decades old) lie below.

The annual Resident Evil machine churns on, in other words, but at least Veronica is a very intriguing churning of the colossus.

I'm doing badly at playing cartoony roguelike shooter Maximum Thunderness with a controller.

The fact I'm trying to play its demo on mouse and keyboard at the same time, in order to appreciate the co-op element of the game's battles with skateboarding aliens, probably isn't helping.

To be fair, some of the aliens can ride skateboards, so this is clearly a threat no one should underestimate.

As to whether Maximum Thunderness has the juice to stand out from the massive roguelike crowd when it comes out in autumn 2026, I'm not entirely convinced yet.

If you're keen to try and gauge that for yourself, you can find Maximum Thunderness' demo on Steam, where it's also wishlistable.

Today, as part of the June 2026 Nintendo Direct, Square Enix revealed that we'll be getting our first HD-2D Final Fantasy game later this year.

Named Final Fantasy Resonance, the title arrives 22nd October on PlayStation, Xbox, PC, and Nintendo Swtich 1/2.

It simply uses the Brave Exvius story as a foundation, as Resonance "extensively rebuilds and reimagines" what came before.

"Meanwhile, the special abilities of legacy FINAL FANTASY heroes, along with select summon sequences, are presented in striking 3D graphics.

If you're only here for the nods and references to past FF games, don't worry: Square Enix knows how powerful nostalgia can be.

During a recent chat at Summer Game Fest, Matthew Ball, Xbox's chief strategy officer, noted it's true the company is struggling to meet console demand: "We are producing them as quickly as possible.

This is a severe limitation to how quickly we can do that, but it's not a question of appetite... That is a privilege as a company.

It is a challenge for us to figure out."

We are working hard to rethink what that console model can look like, not in an exclusionary way, but in an additive way, so that as we take a look at this crisis, which may have acute effects for 2-2.5 years."

This suggests Microsoft and the Xbox division are now actively crunching numbers and looking at ways to offset risi…

UPDATE 5.38pm: The Star Fox demo is now live and available to download.

The new Star Fox - actually another remake of Star Fox 64 - is coming on 25th June, but today's Nintendo Direct stream has confirmed a demo is available... today!

The specific contents of the demo are unclear at the time of writing, but we know it includes the tutorial and one of the game's opening stages.

All Nintendo Switch 2 players will be able to download it through the Nintendo eShop to check out for themselves whether this new upgrade of the rail shooter classic packs enough new features and additions beyond shiny new graphics and character redesigns.

Nintendo hasn't confirmed when the demo will go live, but make…

Today, at Nintendo Direct June 2026's showcase, we finally got another look at Kingdom Hearts 4.

This comes after a new illustration was published to celebrate the 24th anniversary of Kingdom Hearts earlier this year.

Check out the trailer below:"KINGDOM HEARTS IV is coming to Nintendo Switch 2 and will be available day and date at launch!"

Kingdom Hearts fans, of course, have been waiting patiently for official communications about the long-awaited Kingdom Hearts 4 ever since it was announced as part of the series' 20th anniversary back in 2022, with very little info coming out about the game in the years following.

In 2025, director Tetsuya Nomura said that both Kingdom Hearts 4 and Final…

It's two for two on the Nintendo rumours front.

After whispers of a Star Fox remake turned out to be true, the company has confirmed it's also got a The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake on the way, and it's coming to Switch 2 later this year.

There's not a huge amount to report beyond that, however, with Nintendo only showing a brief teaser during its latest Direct showcase.

This latest Ocarina of Time do-over - which we first heard rumours of in March - is set to launch later this year, with more details coming at a later date.

Confirmation of Ocarina of Time's rumoured remake arrives as part of Nintendo's latest Direct showcase, which follows big announcement blow-outs from both Pl…

Minecraft is coming to the Nintendo Switch 2 later this year, with no specific release date announced.

Revealed during today's Nintendo Direct, the game will have enhanced visuals enabled, so the game should be a great looking version of the survival crafting classic, even on the go.

Minecraft – Nintendo Direct 6.9.2026 Here's a trailer for the new Minecraft version on the Nintendo Switch 2!Watch on YouTubeIn addition, the game will have enhanced lighting and shadow effects, just to make things look extra fancy.

As a nice bonus, if you have a world you're playing on the Nintendo Switch version of Minecraft, this can be carried over to this new Nintendo Switch 2 version of the game.

So, no p…

There's still no release date, mind, with its latest showing merely confirming a playtest coming to Switch 2 this "summer".

Questions were raised, and FromSoftware boss Hidetaka Miyazaki followed up The Duskbloods' reveal with a short interview that offered a few additional answers.

"Due to this," Miyazaki explained, "there is no fixed era or location in which The Duskbloods takes place.

Some 14 months later, The Duskbloods is back, giving a fresh - albeit it extremely brief - look at its action.

But the big news is that playtest, coming to Switch 2 relatively soon, it sounds like, with FromSoftware targeting this "summer".

It's coming in 2027 to the Nintendo Switch 2, with a specific release date or window not announced quite yet.

In addition, all of the beloved Xenoblade Chronicles games are also getting Nintendo Switch 2 versions.

The original Xenoblade Chronicles will be available later today digitally, with physical versions coming on the 30th July.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 will be available digitally on the 30th July, and physically on the 1st October.

Finally, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 will get a physical and digital upgrade pack on the 3rd December.

All the fan theories were correct: Dragon's Dogma 2 is getting an expansion later this year... plus a Nintendo Switch 2 port.

Capcom surprise-announced the Switch 2 port of Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen - yes, the expanded version directly borrows its title from the original - during today's Nintendo Direct.

No further details were shared, but the Dark Arisen DLC will open up a new snowy area as suggested by Capcom's sneaky teases.

Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen will come out on 9th October on Switch 2, with the PC (Steam), PS5, and Xbox Series X/S versions getting the DLC on the same date.

The announcement of such an ambitious port also raises a number of questions regarding performance, as…

Just when I thought my time with Pokémon Pokopia might be coming to an end, Nintendo has unveiled a whole bunch of new stuff launching this August.

First up is a free update that'll make it possible to dive beneath the waves in order to walk - and build - on the sea bed.

Plus, enjoy three waves of paid DLC with the Expansion Pass!

Manage cookie settingsThat arrives this August, and will be accompanied by the first bit of paid DLC for Pokopia which introduces Bubbly Basin, a brand-new town featuring new Pokemon, outfit, and furniture.

Bubbly Basin is one of three chunks of paid DLC that'll be available to purchasers of Pokémon Pokopia's newly unveiled paid Expansion Pass.

I hope your wallet and social lives are ready, because September 2026 is looking like an absolute disaster for game releases.

Today, at a Nintendo Direct, the publisher finally announced a release date Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave.

The game arrives 17th September, 2026 and will be arriving exclusively on Switch 2.

The main gimmick of Fortune's Weave appears to be a focus on four main protagonists, each of which you can follow to learn more about their stories.

"Discover an intertwining story of strength and steel in Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, only on Nintendo Switch 2," reads an official blurb on a trailer for the game.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword has been announced for the Nintendo Switch 2.

Revealed during today's Nintendo Direct, the game appears to be running well on the portable Nintendo console.

There was no mention of a free demo, as was recently released to PlayStation users during the recent Sony State of Play.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword looks to be a fantastic upcoming release from Capcom, and a worthy new entry in a long-lasting franchise beloved by many.

Now, it looks like a whole new audience will be able to check it out later this year.

Sony Pictures and PlayStation Productions have been moving relatively fast on the Helldivers movie adaptation announced back in January 2025, securing Fast & Furious veteran Justin Lin to direct and, earlier this year, Jason Momoa (Aquaman, A Minecraft Movie) to star.

Deadline shared the exclusive, adding "the reason for his departure is unknown".

Sony is now looking for a new main star who can help carry the weight of the massive video game IP.

The search for a new lead (and the rest of the cast) shouldn't take too long though, as the movie aims to drop in cinemas on 10th November, 2027.

Meanwhile, Arrowhead Studios continues to expand Helldivers 2 with new content drops and loaded warbond…

French developer Asobo, creator of the Plague Tale series and the Microsoft Flight Simulator games, doesn't believe smaller teams need to use generative AI tools to compete with bigger development studios.

Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy producer Eric Chort told me this at a press event recently, referencing Asobo's cinematic action-adventure series which has been made by comparatively small teams.

For reference, approximately 40 people made A Plague Tale: Innocence, while a team of around 70 made the sequel A Plague Tale: Requiem, and a similarly sized team is making Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy, according to Chort.

A Plague Tale isn't a series boasting enormous resources, then, which i…

Gears of War: E-DayОб этом Болл рассказал в интервью порталу The Game Business на Summer Game Fest 2026.

Он не стал уточнять, сколько именно человек тогда передумали пользоваться Game Pass, но отметил, что их количество измерялось в миллионах.

Он напомнил, что одним из первых шагов новой главы Xbox Аши Шармы (Asha Sharma) на ее должности стало удешевление Game Pass.

Microsoft давно не делится информацией о количестве подписчиков Game Pass.

Позже СМИ утверждали, что к 2030 году корпорация планирует довести это число до 100 млн человек, но так ли это на самом деле — неизвестно.

Об этом рассказал глава республики Артем Здунов в беседе с «Интерфаксом» во время ПМЭФ 2026.

Артем ЗдуновКак утверждает Здунов, при поддержке властей в Мордовии уже удалось создать необходимую для становления геймдева инфраструктуру.

Например, в декабре 2024-го в республике открылся второй корпус бизнес-инкубатора «Молодежный», который дает начинающим командам доступ к вычислительным ресурсам и помогает искать партнеров с инвесторами.

Помимо этого, отмечает Здунов, в Мордовском государственном университете появились специальные программы подготовки кадров.

Сейчас это флагманский игровой проект в республике, но только им власти не намерены ограничиваться.

Он также раскрыл ориентировочную стоимость «Командиров бездорожья» — идейного наследника «Дальнобойщиков», создаваемого при поддержке мордовских властей.

Но он уверен, что в итоге сумма смело перевалит за 1 млрд рублей.

Большая часть этих денег — расходы на формирование команды авторов «Командиров бездорожья» и выплату зарплат.

Кроме того, среди партнеров «Командиров бездорожья» есть «Газпром-Медиа Холдинг» и «КАМАЗ».

Сами власти Мордовии, добавил Здунов, предоставили авторам «Командиров бездорожья» налоговые льготы, помещение для работы и необходимую инфраструктуру.

По условия сделки, акционеры Evoke получат 0,537 акции Bally’s Intralot за каждую свою акцию.

Сделка последовала за стратегическим обзором, который Evoke начала в декабре 2025 года для поиска вариантов повышения рыночной стоимости.

Закрытие ожидается в конце 2026 года или в начале 2027 года после одобрения акционеров и регуляторов.

После завершения покупки компания будет работать на шести ключевых географических рынках с общим потенциалом в 36 млрд евро.

Ожидается, что объединенная группа станет вторым по величине игроком в iGaming-сегменте Великобритании и четвертым по величине оператором онлайн-ставок на спорт в стране.

Штат Supercell стал меньше, сообщает портал MobileGamer со ссылкой на публикации уволенных сотрудников в социальных сетях.

Brawl StarsКак заметил MobileGamer, с конца 2025-го финский гигант сократил по меньшей мере ряд ключевых сотрудников, трудившихся в студиях в Северной Америке.

Например, в числе пострадавших оказался Стив Дезиле (Steve Desilets) — сооснователь одного из филиалов Supercell на территории США.

Сам Дезиле недавно написал в LinkedIn, что Supercell решила отменить игру, которой занималась его студия, и распустить команду проекта.

По информации газеты, его совместно запустят компании Hobby World и Indie GO.

Как заметил «Коммерсантъ» в базе данных Rusprofile, 29 мая генеральный директор Hobby World Михаил Акулов и основатель Indie GO Владимир Вареник учредили юридическое лицо ООО «УК Игф».

Если верить источникам «Коммерсанта», фонд станет инвестировать в разработчиков игр уровня АА и ААА для консолей и ПК.

Название ООО «УК Игф» намекает, что фонд, возможно, будет одним из ответвлений Indie GO Fund вроде ранее запущенного Indie GO Start, но утверждать это наверняка нельзя.

В Hobby World проигнорировали запрос газеты.

Gamble With Your FriendsGamble With Your Friends — это кооперативная игра, которую сами разработчики из шведской команды TEAM GWYF называют «казино-краулером».

Вот как сейчас выглядит ее динамика продаж:500 тысяч копий — 5 мая;1 млн копий — 9 мая;2 млн копий — 4 июня.

Спустя месяц после релиза ажиотаж несколько снизился, и теперь количество одновременных игроков в Gamble With Your Friends в среднем держится на уровне в 11-14 тысяч человек.

TEAM GWYF в сообщении о 2 млн проданных копий поблагодарила аудиторию и призналась, что не ожидала такого успеха.

Вся эта ситуация кажется студии нереальной с учетом того, что на рынке существуют «миллионы» других игр.

В результате на современных мониторах страница стала шире, а картинки больше.

Появилась бесконечная прокрутка, благодаря которой геймеры смогут увидеть больше игр;сведений об играх тоже стало больше.

О том, сколько зарабатывают игры в VK Play, информации в публичном поле не очень много.

Какое-то представление об этом можно получить от самих разработчиков, которые публикуют игры на площадке.

По его словам, за месяц с момента релиза игра продалась в VK Play тиражом в 73 копии и выручила 18 527 рублей — сейчас в сутки она стабильно приносит около 3 тысяч рублей.

Как утверждает Гришаков, таких цифр оказалось достаточно, чтобы по состоянию на 3 июня Meltopia стала второй игрой в рейтинге «Лидеры продаж» в VK Play сразу после Atomic Heart.

Напомним, Meltopia вышла 1 мая 2026-го и помимо VK Play доступна в Steam.

Она объявила о выходе специального демонстрационного проекта, призванного упростить им выпуск игр в XBOX на ПК.

По словам Microsoft, содержимое XBOX Godot Sample охватывает «85-95%» необходимого функционала экосистемы.

Microsoft подчеркнула, что ее проект предназначен исключительно для экосистемы XBOX на ПК — он не учитывает консоли.

Команды, желающие выпускать игры на XBOX Series или XBOX One, по-прежнему должны напрямую связываться с корпорацией.

Исходный код XBOX Godot Sample доступен на GitHub.

Amazon remains committed to developing a Lord of the Rings game, despite recent reports of its MMO project being cancelled.

"But evaluating different concepts is trying to figure out what game we want to make, what's the right one for our audience, what's the right one for the broader audience."

Last month, Gattis declined to confirm or deny reports of the Lord of the Rings MMO cancellation.

He stated that Amazon is developing a "new game experience" in the Lord of the Rings universe, is "working closely with Middle-earth Enterprises," and remains "excited about the IP."

What we don't want to necessarily do is AAA things that don't have any real reason to exist in Amazon."

Türkiye's mobile revenue rose 6% in 2025 to $347 million, its highest annual total to date.

According to AppMagic's annual Turkish mobile report, produced with Gamigion, Türkiye's global market share rose from 1% to 5% alongside these revenue gains.

Dream Games was the top Turkish developer globally by revenue in 2025, reaching $1.7 billion, followed by Peak Games ($619.7 million), and Rollic ($207 million).

Puzzle games made up approximately 97% of Türkiye's mobile revenue.

The top-grossing domestic titles were PUBG Mobile ($17.3 million), eFootball ($10.4 million), and Whiteout Survival ($10 million).

Ninja Theory has cancelled its horror title codenamed Project Mara.

"With the fact that we have the entire team working on [Senua], I suspect some people might ask what happened to Project Mara," said Matthews.

Project Mara was described as an "experimental title" and a "real-world and grounded representation of mental terror."

Project Mara was announced in 2020, during the development of Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 and the multiplayer title Bleeding Edge.

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, which was released in August 2017, was recognised for its portrayal of mental health experiences and won five BAFTA Awards.

Youth marketing firm SuperAwesome has been appointed Roblox's commercial and technology partner for "under-13 contextual advertising."

SuperAwesome said the partnership sees them appointed as the "sole third-party vendor" for under-13s worldwide, "extending SuperAwesome's intelligent advertising capabilities to Gen Alpha's favorite platform."

The partnership will align with changes introduced by Roblox in recent months and ensure brand-safe advertising for all ages on the platform, including across Roblox Kids and Select modes.

Speaking at a live recording of The Game Business, Ball said that announcing the policy with two games was important.

"We could have announced Clockwork was going to be exclusive later," he said.

We have a third bucket of titles, those titles that we have previously announced or previously committed with our partners, with players, with teams, that we've decided to maintain those commitments."

He described the refocus on exclusives as "turning around the business".

Ball said the firm was not yet able to give a comprehensive answer on exclusive titles and the rationale behind their selection, but that "we know what those are going to be.

But we were moving away from the types of games that are near and dear to our hearts.

Nintendo of Europe has agreed to pay a €35 million fine after a French regulator found the company misled customers about Joy-Con drift defects on original Switch controllers.

The DGCCRF said this caused consumers to buy unnecessary replacement controllers.

The National Investigation Service (SNE) of the DGCCRF determined that Nintendo of Europe misled consumers by failing to disclose Joy-Con controller defects transparently.

The Joy-Con problem is part of a larger, ongoing issue for Nintendo.

UK watchdog Which claimed that over 40% of original Switch Joy-Con controllers were affected by drift issues.

Nintendo has announced a revised Switch 2 console for Europe to comply with legislation requiring replaceable batteries.

Earlier this year, reports indicated that Nintendo was developing a new version of the Switch 2 for the EU market.

It has set two collection targets for portable battery waste: 63% by the end of 2027 and 73% by 2030.

Lithium batteries have the highest recovery targets, set at 50% by 2027 and 80% by 2030.

It remains unclear how the updated console will affect EU users who have already purchased a Switch 2 or how it will impact warranties.

"We walked away from years of work that wasn't going where we wanted it to go," says Ottilie.

| Image credit: Telltale GamesWhile the new Telltale Games has many of the same aims as its forebear – a focus on narrative – its management wants to do things differently.

We're just very intentional about our culture, our growth curve, how we approach the work, and when we approach it.

Episodic contentOne feature that in many ways defined the original Telltale Games was the episodic business model.

"We would like to be shipping a premiere Telltale game or two every two to three years and supporting our catalogue in between," he says.

The titles will be exclusive to the Xbox platform and "not timed exclusives", the company confirmed, and CCO Matt Booty said that exclusivity for future titles would be decided on a "case by case basis".

Of future releases, he said that "our principle is when we announce a date, we want to announce the platforms," and Xbox exclusivity would be decided "case by case".

"We want people to have a reason to get on board with Xbox," he said.

"We want them to have a reason to buy an Xbox, a reason to be an Xbox fan.

The news follows CEO Asha Sharma telling Bloomberg that the Xbox platform "must offer exclusive content and services" in order to be successful.

Crystal Dynamics has given more detail to GamesIndustry.biz on how it's using AI in the development of Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, following online backlash to its disclosure in the Steam page for the title.

"We can use a generative AI tool to visualize it in the world and if it works, we'll then move it to our traditional production pipeline."

"Our team will concept it, they will build it, making sure that all the finished content in the final game is human-created.

The use of generative AI remains a hot topic, attracting significant backlash from player communities, while its use continues in publishing and development.

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.

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.

This surprise is Final Fantasy Resonance, the first HD-2D entry in the series, bringing back the turn-based combat fans have been demanding for years on October 22 on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2.

Why does a customer have to make multiple calls and constantly demand to speak with managers just to get an offer Verizon sent them?

When we tried to file a claim to replace it, we discovered there was no insurance on any of our lines.

Due to these tactics, the Verizon customer says that he’ll be switching carriers, but his story is being treated with a pinch of salt by others.

For instance, “Mymomdidwhat” believes the offer was either an online-only deal or had expired when he tried to claim it, while others had commented that Verizon representatives would have no incentive to remove cellphone insurance.

CAPCOM made a surprise appearance at today's Nintendo Direct to announce Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen, an expansion of Dragon's Dogma 2.

Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen also promises 12 new Dungeon challenges, the so-called Pathfinder's Trials, where rare equipment once held by past Arisens lays dormant.

Plus, CAPCOM had included the action RPG series in its long-term roadmap for future development, indirectly confirming that it had further plans.

The announcement trailer confirmed players will be able to embark again on Link's most iconic journey through Hyrule this year.

Developed from the ground up to further differentiate it from the Nintendo 3DS remake as the new short footage suggests, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake is set to become the highlight in a year packed with excellent titles on Nintendo Switch 2.

FromSoftware’s The Duskbloods has been missing in action since its announcement during last year's Nintendo Switch 2 event.

Although publisher Kadokawa has reiterated multiple times that the game will not miss its 2026 release window, many feared it would.

With a new trailer shown during today's Nintendo Direct, it's confirmed that The Duskbloods closed beta test will be held this Summer.

The trailer also provided a quick fresh look at the game's visuals, which looked considerably sharp, more than one would expect to see on the Nintendo Switch 2.

GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC Drops to $649 on Amazon, Standing Firm Against RAMpolcalypse Price SurgesThe Radeon RX 9070 XT and other RDNA 4 GPUs have been selling for nearly 20% higher prices compared to the pre-RAMpocalypse era.

When most RX 9070 XT GPUs are selling for over $700 and some even crossing $800, two RX 9070 XT editions have been listed for a $650 price tag.

The first one is the GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC 16G, which is a triple-fan factory-overclocked GPU that usually sells for $739.

While the RX 9070 XT at $649 wasn't a big deal last year, it currently is one of the best deals on the GPU.

This time it's an ICE or White edition for the RX 9070 XT Gaming OC.

Without inherited systems or legacy assets, the team could stop asking how to update Gears and start asking what Gears actually needs to be in 2026.

It’s that pacing of combat with AI that makes an extraction shooter really healthy.

During today’s State of Play, we announced that Ace Combat 8: Wings Of Theve will release on PlayStation 5 on October 2, 2026.

Written by Sunao Katabuchi, Ace Combat 8 invites players to earn their wings as an Ace pilot, and lead the war against the Sotoans to its resolution.

Redefining aerial combat, Ace Combat 8 introduces techniques like “ground attack” and “anti-ship” missions where you destroy ground and naval targets from above.

The most unique combat of Ace Combat series lies in the “giant weapon battles,” which highlight weapons that can only be encountered in Strangereal.

New characters, new threats— Earn your wings in Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve.

Silent Hill: Townfall pre-orderSilent Hill: Townfall will be available in Standard and Deluxe Editions.

Silent Hill: Townfall is now available for pre-order starting today on PlayStation Store.

We’ll continue to share the latest updates on Silent Hill: Townfall as we approach launch, so please look forward to more.

We'll come to the details, but so far you're looking at a couple of very minor revisions of existing GPUs.

Yup, the latest word on Nvidia's on-again-off-again RTX 50 Super Series GPUs is that they won't appear until early 2027.

Beyond that, there's a purported Nvidia RTX 5050 9 GB, which again is a tweaked version of an existing GPU.

And if Nvidia's revised RTX 50 Supers really do arrive early next year, it's hard to see how Nvidia's actual next-gen graphics architecture, Rubin, arrives any earlier than RDNA 5.

In other words, if the RTX 50 Supers come in early 2027, Nvidia is hardly going to replace them with brand-new Rubin just a couple of months later.

I had damn near forgotten that Square Enix was making Kingdom Hearts 4.

I was starting to wonder if Square Enix had also forgotten Square Enix was making Kingdom Hearts 4.

It's pretty in keeping thematically with the 2022 reveal—a gigantic heartless manifesting among skyscrapers in Quadratum (the Kingdom Hearts version of Tokyo, more specifically here Shibuya) while protagonist Sora does some of his classic airborne flips and tricks while flourishing his keyblade.

The most interesting appearance by far is who appears to be a young Xehanort, holding a comically busted umbrella over Sora.

But the fact that I came into this review pretty sceptical of LCD monitors with local dimming hopefully means that when I say I was impressed by the KTC M27T6S, it carries a bit more weight.

The KTC M27T6S duly has VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certification and can do fully 1,000 nits courtesy of 1,152 dimming zones.

Where the KTC M27T6S really delivers is with HDR content.

But where the KTC M27T6S really delivers is with HDR content.

Image 1 of 1 The KTC M27T6S might be affordable, but it doesn't feel cheap.

In an age of spiralling PC component prices, this 34-inch ultrawide monitor is a refreshing change.

Of course, this is a 34-inch ultrawide model, which is one of my favourite form factors and pretty generously proportioned.

That 34-inch panel, meanwhile, sports a fairly gentle 1000R curve and a matte anti-glare panel coating.

So, it's great that you can get a decent 34-inch ultrawide experience for this kind of money, it really is.

Obviously I'd want to see a decent range of Koorui monitor models first hand to give a really authoritative recommendation in that regard.

"RTX 50 Super is back on track," they write, before adding something extra.

Latest Videos From Watch full video here:For example, the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti uses a full AD104 die with 7680, whereas the RTX 4070 Ti Super sports an AD103 chip with 8448 shaders.

The full version of that GPU, with 10240 shaders, is used in the RTX 4080 Super.

Current Blackwell gaming cards use 2 GB GDDR7 modules, but it's generally expected that the Supers will use 3 GB ones.

So instead of having 16 GB, the RTX 5080 Super would have 24 GB.

Enter, Halo: Campaign Evolved.

What's changed in Halo: Campaign Evolved?

Korean dev Shift Up's hit action-adventure Stellar Blade is coming to Switch 2 this year.

As revealed in today's Nintendo Direct, the game came out on PS5 back in 2024 with Sony publishing.

Experience intense combat and a twisting plot as you unravel the mysteries of Earth’s downfall in an immersive sci-fi world.

Featuring a blend of cinematic storytelling and gameplay, Stellar Blade offers deep character progression with customizable skills, gear, and combat builds – which you’ll need during epic boss encounters.

Intrigued to see how this will hold up on Switch 2?

We are approaching Nintendo's next big Switch 2 release with Star Fox, and today, we've learnt the development team behind it all.

As revealed on Bluesky, Velan Studios is behind this one.

"Collaborating with Nintendo and bringing Fox McCloud and crew to Nintendo Switch 2 is truly an honor."

#StarFox #NintendoSwitch2 — Velan Studios (@velanstudios.bsky.social) 2026-06-09T15:15:13.891ZBut that's not all from Star Fox!

Sega and Atlus brought the big guns to the Nintendo Direct today with Persona Metaphor: ReFantazio for the Switch 2.

Originally released in 2024, the JRPG garnered critical acclaim across the board for its visuals and mechanics, and fans have been itching to see it launch on Nintendo's console.

Your wait is almost over – it will release on 12th November 2026.

It seems like it'll be a straight port for this one, so don't go expecting any exclusive content or anything.

Not that we need it, as such, it's a pretty massive game as it is.

Rise of the Tomb Raider, the second in Crystal Dynamics’s Lara Croft reboots that was originally released in 2015, has been revealed for Switch 2 - and it’s out now.

In the meantime, a remake of the very first Lara Croft adventure, Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, was recently confirmed to also launch on Switch 2 when it arrives early next year.

It was also revealed to have used "AI-generated content" during development.

Are you looking forward to revisiting (or playing for the first time) Rise of the Tomb Raider?

Let us know in the comments.

Here's one for the Soulslike fans out there.

Lies of P is heading to Switch 2 on 6th August in an all-new 'Complete Edition'.

This new version of Neowiz and Round8 Studio's 2023 action game bundles the 'Overture' expansion in with the base game, and from the brief look we got in the Direct, it seems to run at a pretty solid 60fps — nice.

Those after a physical release will need to wait a little longer before it arrives on Switch 2 on 2nd October.

Here's a little more info about what you can expect from this one:

Capcom was relentless with the game reveals in the recent Nintendo Direct, and has confirmed that Devil May Cry 5 - Devil Hunter Edition will launch on the Switch 2 on 23rd June 2026.

Boasting 60fps gameplay in both docked and handheld modes, you'll take on the roles of Dante, Vergil, Nero, and V and battle hoards of demons with various battle mechanics.

Extra content comes in the form of character colours, battle tracks, and devil-breaker weapons for Nero.

It wasn't too long ago at all that Bloober Team gave us the heebie jeebies with Cronos: The New Dawn on Switch 2, but what do you know, the studio has another horror in the tank for the Nintendo hybrid.

It's 2020's Observer: System Redux that's coming our way this time, launching on Switch 2 on 18th June.

Naturally, this is a Bloober Team joint, so you can expect all manner of nasties and jump scares along the way.

On Switch 2, the game throws in optional mouse and motion controls for those who want to work through the cyberpunk city with an extra bit of precision.

With a few technical nips and tucks on the new hardware, we could be onto a winner with System Redux.

Nintendo had more info to share on Splatoon Raiders in today's Direct, but it looks like there is even more in the pipeline.

After giving us a closer look at some gameplay (which still looks very Salmon Run-y), we learned that a stand-alone Raiders Direct will be coming our way on 30th June, where we'll hear even more about the upcoming squid splatter.

There's also set to be a series of Raiders comics arriving sporadically on Nintendo Today!

before the 23rd July launch, and a special Raiders-themed Splatfest between 10th and 12th July.

As if that wasn't enough marketing, Nintendo also announced that a new Joy-Con 2 colourway will launch alongside the game on 23rd July.

Well, Road to Empress II offers just that as it launches today on mobile with a free trial of the first chapter!

On the surface, Road to Empress II is a simple FMV choose-your-own-adventure game.

But dig a little deeper, and you'll find movie-quality visuals, lavish sets and costumes all based upon the iconic and intrigue-filled world of Imperial China.

With the first entry in the series getting a thumbs up (with some caveats), Road to Empress II looks set to address those issues and offer even more lavish intrigue and a romance.

Amidst heavy hitters such as Genshin Impact or upcoming projects fuelled with star power like Limit Zero Breakers, it can seem virtually impossible for a new entrant to make their mark.

Well, except perhaps in the case of Aether Dawn.

Developed by Jin Universe Studios, an indie developer founded by ex-Arknight and Genshin Impact developers, Aether Dawn is an interesting spin on the format.

Into the anime abyssObviously, there'll be a bit of debate about how apt calling Jin Universe an indie studio is.

There's been plenty in the way of investment and interest from more established companies, who are likely looking for the next Genshin competitor from Aether Dawn.

Now, it's been announced this massive sci-fi MMORPG is set to launch June 16th, with plenty of tantalising new details shown in its trailer.

Subscribe to Pocket Gamer onPlanetfallI get some very strong Planetside vibes from RF Online Next, in a good way.

So if you're hunting for a new MMORPG, then RF Online Next might be what you're looking for.

While RF Online Next may be more of a classic MMORPG, you won't be going short of action-packed FPS fun in our list of the best shooters on iOS!

Running June 5th to 7th, it drew in record crowds to both Grant Park and nearly a million players in the city overall.

According to the folks at Pokémon Go, over 90,000 tickets were sold for the event at Grant Park, with over 100,000 ticketed participants overall.

And in case you were curious, those numbers equated to 14 million Pokémon caught at Grant Park and over 100 million across the city!

However, if the success of Pokémon Go Fest and the ongoing success of Go itself is any indication, they've managed it.

Don't Starve Together arrives on iOS and Android on July 21stMultiplayer adds cooperation and more ways for runs to fall apartPre-orders are live with a launch discountDon’t Starve Together has been hovering around a mobile release for what feels like ages.

At this point, just having a date attached to it feels like something actually moved.

If you’ve ever touched Don't Starve, you’ll already know what to expect.

Don’t Starve Together brings in multiplayer, which sounds helpful until you remember that more players also means more ways for things to fall apart.

Most of the time, you’re just trying to stop things from slipping rather than pushing forward.

One of the most striking features of these games is direct player engagement.

Moreover, narrative adventure games are easily accessible on your phone - so all you have to do is whip your phone out and get started.

With that being said, we have put together a list of some of the best narrative adventure games available on the Play Store and App Store.

And the latest to take a swing at it are Offbrand Games and their upcoming release, Ultrapool.

In case you hadn't guessed from the name, Ultrapool is Balatro but for pool.

With a demo out now on Android and iOS Testflight, Ultrapool proves that you can keep the core concepts and put enough of a spin on it to make your own take stand out.

But whether all that theory holds up in practice is something you'll just have to find out for yourself when Ultrapool hits iOS and Android!

I reckon I'll be keeping an eye on it when it does release too.

And that's exactly the case with the upcoming Monster Boy on iOS.

Monster Boy is heavily inspired by Nishizawa's previous work as creator of the Wonder Boy in Monster World series.

Monster Boy sees you taking control of the heroic Jin as he fights to defeat the evil plaguing Monster World Kingdom.

Monster Boy originally released way back in 2018, and was received positively for the most part.

So if that's what matters to you, then this is definitely a solid option if you're not already a fan of the Monster World series.

Meta's Muse Spark now powers Meta AI on most of its smart glasses, a significant upgrade over Llama 4 that narrows the gap to leading AI systems.

Meta says Spark is the first in its Muse series, which succeeds its Llama series.

While Llama models were open-source, Muse Spark is not, though the company says it "hopes to open-source future versions of the model".

Muse Spark is the first model in our new Muse series — a deliberate and scientific approach to model scaling where each generation validates and builds on the last before we go bigger.

In May, Muse Spark replaced Llama 4 in powering Meta AI on all Ray-Ban and Oakley smart glasses – with the notable exception of Meta Ray-Ban Display.

Meta and Unity say they extended their "multi‑year platform support and enterprise agreement" for VR.

Announced in April, Unity said the extension "deepens the companies’ long‑standing collaboration in virtual reality".

“Meta is the world’s leading VR platform, and we’re proud that Unity powers the majority of its top‑selling VR games,” said Alex Blum, COO, Unity, in a prepared statement.

Of course, in March, Meta announced that Horizon Engine would fully refocus on flatscreen platforms, smartphones and the web, dropping support for virtual reality, as part of the wider retreat of Horizon Worlds from VR.

With Horizon Engine out of the picture for VR, Meta seems to be redoubling its partners…

The new Horizon OS 'Navigator' system UI finally rolled out to all Quest headsets, more than a year after Meta began publicly testing it.

Imagine if your phone's app library, or control center, or the Windows Start Menu, was just another windowed app.

With Navigator, system interfaces no longer shift around when opening other windows, and it's far quicker to launch new apps because the library is the default UI panel.

Navigator also launched with both Apps and Horizon Worlds listed in the central launcher interface, and without a Friends list interface.

Hip hop star Wiz Khalifa has been cast as a mixed martial arts fighter marked for death in Hitman: World of Assassination's limited-time Elusive Target series.

In the mission, titled 'The Wizard,' Agent 47's mission is to intervene and keep the in-over-his-head Quinn alive.

0:00 / 1:20 1×The Wizard is the latest in Hitman: WOA's Elusive Target series, free short-time missions that date back to the 2016 Hitman game.

This mission revisits the Isle of Sgàil, a popular location in the Hitman community repackaged for a new mission by fan request.

Hitman World of Assassination is available in VR on Steam and PlayStation VR2.

Meta announced that it is rolling out updated kiosks inside of Best Buy, the biggest electronics retailer in the US.

The new 900 square-foot “store in a store” offers a place for customers to demo Meta’s AI glasses and VR headsets.

However, the company’s most recent kiosks have focused primarily on its AI glasses, creating an apparent divide between older, separately placed kiosks focused on Quest headsets.

At the time the company launched new Best Buy kiosks which were exclusively focused on its AI glasses, and didn’t even include Meta’s VR headsets for sale.

With the new Meta Lab @ Best Buy spaces, the company’s retail strategy is catching up to its product strategy.

It’s been nearly a decade since Vertigo Games released Arizona Sunshine (2016) on PC VR headsets, serving up one of the industry’s first immersive zombie-shooting adventures.

Now the Netherlands-based studio is bringing the franchise to PC and console as a “reimagined” flatscreen game.

Like Polyarc, Vertigo Games has experienced some recent turmoil, which puts the Arizona Sunshine flatscreen game announcement under an odd spotlight; last week, the studio announced was closing its Amsterdam-based satellite studio known for VR action-adventure Metro Awakening VR (2024).

Granted, this isn’t the first flatscreen game by Vertigo Games.

Founded in 2008, the Rotterdam-based studio released a numbe…

The developer behind The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners is no longer working on VR projects following a merger last year that has effectively retooled the studio to develop a traditional PC/console title.

According to Game File, the former Skydance team—which developed VR titles The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners (2020), The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners – Chapter 2: Retribution (2022), and Skydance’s Behemoth (2024)—is now working on an unannounced non-VR title for PC and consoles.

The change follows the 2025 merger between Skydance Media and Paramount, which recently consolidated the company’s gaming operations under the newly formed Paramount Games Studio.

Inwigo is an upcoming VR horror extraction game drawing from similar co-op PvE titles like Phasmophobia.

Developer Dirty Pearl Studios is running a public test this weekend ahead of its release.

In Inwigo, players will explore haunted mansions to unlock gameplay mechanics, outsmart adaptive monsters, uncover treasures, and survive an interactive ghost story where choices and teamwork shape the narrative, according to Dirty Pearl.

Following the playtest, Inwigo is currently planned to launch in Early Access on Meta Quest on June 23.

The press release we were sent only specifies Meta Quest.

Vertigo Games, the Netherlands-based VR veteran behind a host of popular titles, is closing its Amsterdam studio, citing continued challenges within the VR games market.

The news was announced by CEO Richard Stitselaar in an open letter, noting “the VR market remains a challenging space,” which is resulting the in closure of Vertigo Studios Amsterdam.

Originally called Force Field before being acquired by Rotterdam-based Vertigo Games in 2021, the studio produced a number of VR games and experiences over the years, including Anne Frank House VR (2018), Coaster Combat (2017) and Landfall (2017) as Force Field, and Metro Awakening VR (2024) as Vertigo Studios Amsterdam.

Snapchat parent Snap has acquired Illumix, an augmented reality software company behind Five Nights at Freddy’s AR: Special Delivery (2019), an AR adaptation of the popular horror franchise.

The acquisition goes far beyond developing games for Snap’s upcoming AR glasses though.

As first reported by Variety, Snap has acquired Bay Area-based Illumix for an unspecific amount, something that’s slated to boost the company’s AR glasses efforts—and not by stocking the next-gen pair of Snap Spectacles with AR games.

Founded in 2017, Illumix is building a perception layer for phones, AR glasses, and robots that essentially lets software understand and interact with the physical world.

Notably, Snap …

Vertigo Games Amsterdam, the team behind 2024's Metro Awakening, has been shut down according to a statement from Vertigo Games CEO Richard Stitselaar.

Vertigo Games was, until now, comprised of two different studios: Amsterdam and Rotterdam.

The Amsterdam team was formerly Force Field Entertainment before becoming Vertigo Games Amsterdam in 2021.

The whole of Vertigo Games was acquired by Koch Media, also the parent company of Deep Silver, in 2020.

We reviewed Metro Awakening, saying "Vertigo Games has once again delivered a mesmerizing VR gaming experience.
