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

Независимая аргентинская студия Whiteboard Games анонсировала свой новый проект — научно-фантастическую метроидванию Tempus Vitae, в которой геймерам предстоит перемещаться между двумя эпохами с видом от первого лица.

Tempus Vitae повествует историю Алекс — астронавтки, пытающейся отыскать своего пропавшего брата Адриана на неизвестной космической станции в ходе ожесточённой войны.

В ходе расследования Алекс обнаруживает невероятную технологию, которая отправляет её в постапокалиптическое будущее на 200 лет вперёд.

В преддверии начала презентации Summer Game Fest 2026 всё больше инсайдеров делятся своими сведениями касательно предстоящих анонсов.

На сей раз отличился автор немецкого YouTube-канала ScreenFire Germany, который «на 99 % уверен» в показе ремейка Resident Evil Code: Veronica.

Ранее ScreenFire Germany делился достоверной информацией о Resident Evil Requiem, включая её анонс на Summer Game Fest 2025, так что у него есть определённый кредит доверия.

Напомним, слухи о ремейке Code: Veronica ходят уже не первый год.

После этого Capcom якобы сосредоточится на ремейке Resident Evil 0, который увидит свет уже в 2028 году.

Компания Bandai Namco обнародовала подробную демонстрацию игрового процесса Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve.

За время прохождения геймерам также предстоит столкнуться с элитными эскадрильями асов, которые используют скоординированную воздушную тактику и наносят беспощадные удары.

Релиз Ace Combat 8: WIngs of Theve планируется 2 октября на ПК (Steam), PlayStation 5 и Xbox Series с русской локализацией текста.

По мнению шоураннера Ади Шанкара (Adi Shankar), анонс продолжения был просто неизбежен, так как Шанкар — «выдающийся талант своего поколения».

Также он подчеркнул, что всегда видел экранизацию Devil May Cry именно как трилогию — подсказки к этому шоураннер зашил в названиях серий.

Первый сезон был связан с «Адом», второй — с «Чистилищем», а третий станет «Раем».

И напоследок… Продолжение не станет обычным третим «сезоном» сериала.

Второй сезон вышел примерно через год после первого.

В свежем блоге Valve сузила окно запуска для Steam Machine и гарнитуры Steam Frame.

Такое уже делается для Steam Deck, и скоро инициатива заработает для Steam Machine и Steam Frame.

Однако из-за разбушевавшегося кризиса памяти Valve пришлось пересмотреть свои планы — контроллер выпустили в начале мая, а начало продаж Steam Machine и Steam Frame отложили до первой половины 2026-го.

Как отметили в Valve, Steam Frame примерно в шесть раз мощнее Steam Deck, поэтому если игра хорошо себя показывает на портативном ПК, то будет отлично работать и на стационарном ПК от Valve.

В этом случае разработчикам тоже не нужно ничего предпринимать: мы уже проверяем на Steam Machine все игры, у которых были п…

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

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

Изменения могут затронуть не только саму консоль.

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

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

Поскольку «Готика» всегда занимала особое место в сердцах русских игроков, разработчики позаботились о доступности игры в российском регионе Steam.

Естественно, у ремейка есть и русский дубляж, причём к нему вернулись некоторые ветераны озвучки оригинала.

Персонажа удастся создать самостоятельно, а пуститься в приключения с кучей перестрелок и заданий можно как в одиночку, так и совместно с друзьями.

It cost $68.7 billion and meant Xbox's parent company now lorded over the likes of Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, and Overwatch.

Well, amid some bigging up of the series I just mentioned, current Xbox CEO Asha Sharma has said it's "hard to say how to think about those decisions".

And who wouldn't want a team that for 20 years has been able to create predictable hits every single year?

So, hard to say how to think about those decisions.

CEOs being a bit more open and honest about big decisions like this, as Sharma's shown thus far, is a double-edged sword.

You're finally awake – oh, hang on, I'm thinking of the other fantasy RPG in which you start out as a shackled prisoner.

Today is release day for Alkimia Interactive and THQ Nordic's remake of Gothic, the 2001 first-person RPG from Piranha Bytes.

It'll be live on Steam in a matter of hours, with a demo still available as of writing.

I do admire THQ Nordic's chutzpah in arguing that, no, you do not want to hear about a bunch of sparkling new videogames today.

I don't think they were particularly useful to either returning or new players, but here they are again anyway.

Lexispell is Balatro for people that love spelling bees and hate gambling
Lexispell is Balatro for people that love spelling bees and hate gambling Lexispell is Balatro for people that love spelling bees and hate gambling

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

"One discovers, one guides, and one strikes the final blow": Ikumi Nakamura's new yokai-hunting game Kemuri is turning co-op into a ritual, somehow

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

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

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

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

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

God of War Laufey and Wolverine are snubbing PC, as rumoured, but I bet they come crawling back sometime after the launch of PS6 God of War Laufey and Wolverine are snubbing PC, as rumoured, but I bet they come crawling back sometime after the launch of PS6

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

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

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

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

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

Xbox boss Asha Sharma still can't seem to decide on a stance regarding console exclusivity
Xbox boss Asha Sharma still can't seem to decide on a stance regarding console exclusivity Xbox boss Asha Sharma still can't seem to decide on a stance regarding console exclusivity

Newly-appointed Xbox CEO, Asha Sharma, has now spent over 100 days in her new role.

Unfortunately, her answers don't bring much clarity, as Xbox's stance more or less remains unchanged.

"I think it's a tough topic," Sharma said, when asked what she felt the future of exclusivity looks like.

"Look, we're the number two publisher in the world and, in order to be a great publisher, you must have your games reach large audiences to play."

That has resulted in some broader recommitments to Xbox hardware, but it also extended to gestures about maybe, potentially, changing Xbox's stance on exclusivity.

Marathon Deluxe Edition discount is suddenly updated to remove base game, leaving free trial players in the dark
Marathon Deluxe Edition discount is suddenly updated to remove base game, leaving free trial players in the dark Marathon Deluxe Edition discount is suddenly updated to remove base game, leaving free trial players in the dark

Marathon seems to have fallen upon controversy yet again, as a discounted deluxe edition version of the game bought by many PlayStation users does not actually include the full game.

This discounted deluxe edition appears to have had its game and legal page updated to emphasize the fact that buyers wouldn't get a copy of Marathon's base game post-trial; just the deluxe edition perks.

This matters because, as of writing, there is a free trial for Marathon allowing those curious about the game to try it out until the 11th June.

They would be able to enjoy the deluxe edition benefits - including cosmetics, a premium seasonal pass, and some premium currency - throughout the duration of the free…

Sony has successfully made its State of Play showcase series into a brand that brings in millions of views with each episode.

Kick was also in the picture, itself posting double the audience numbers compared to the June 2025 State of Play.

According to the same report, State of Play showcases have collectively generated over 4.4m hours watched.

The 2026 State of Play showcases have also seen a 25.5 percent rise in viewership compared to last year.

Sentiments are very positive on the June State of Play, in particular how it was almost entirely made up of single-player games.

Did this week's PlayStation State of Play host the largest number of games running on PS5 Pro? Not technically, but close Did this week's PlayStation State of Play host the largest number of games running on PS5 Pro? Not technically, but close

One could argue that the PS5 Pro's lack of a blanket, system-wide enhancement mode that benefits every PS5 game is a strange omission.

The PS4 Pro had its own Boost Mode, and it helped almost every game released prior to its introduction.

Image credit: InsomniacLately, however, we've been increasingly seeing 'Captured on PS5 Pro' pop up in the lower third of many game trailers.

That technically holds true, in that the Pro is a PS5 console, but it might've made sense to reference the Pro in the opening blurb.

The PS5 Pro was (and remains) more expensive than the standard PS5, both at launch and today.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Marvel's Wolverine is a more linear game than Spider-Man - don't expect a city to explore or a base to nose around in Marvel's Wolverine is a more linear game than Spider-Man - don't expect a city to explore or a base to nose around in

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

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

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

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

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

Какие жанры популярны на смартфонах и в вебе?

7 из 10 россиян играют на смартфонах и планшетах — и только 4 из 10 периодически садятся за ПК.

Причина не только в том, что мобильные и веб-игры обычно казуальнее ПК-проектов.

Просто от человека не требуются навороченная видеокарта и в большинстве случаев покупка игры.

В том же вебе он кликнет по иконке и уже через мгновение переставит кубики местами или позаботится о ферме.

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

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

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

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

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

В результате Liftoff пришлось отложить IPO на несколько месяцев.

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

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

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

«Рубрик» купил авторов мобильных игр по мотивам «Трех котов» и «Фиксиков» «Рубрик» купил авторов мобильных игр по мотивам «Трех котов» и «Фиксиков»

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Pre-orders are already live for the UK and Ireland launch of the Nex Playground, which is set to ship towards the end of June.

But Nex president Thomas Kang feels confident that there won't be any further price jumps in the near future.

The Nex Playground uses motion control.

Kang says that when it comes to the Nex Playground library, the focus is on quality over quantity.

Metacore announced restructuring plans last month, citing that Merge Mansion has "plateaued over the past few years" and recent investments have not resulted in new game launches.

Xbox CEO Asha Sharma aims to make Xbox "the number one gaming and entertainment company," and has emphasised that her immediate priority is "resetting the business."

With AI, memory and storage costs are going up 2.75 times rather than 50% down.

When Microsoft Gaming returned to Xbox branding in April, Sharma and CCO Matt Booty announced plans to re-evaluate their approach to exclusivity and AI.

As for AI, Sharma previously said she had "no tolerance for bad AI" at Xbox, and that the firm "will not chase short-term efficiency or flood our ecosystem with soulless AI slop."

"At the same time, I do not think AI will replace AAA games.

September becomes a pile-up as publishers swerve to avoid GTA 6 | Opinion
September becomes a pile-up as publishers swerve to avoid GTA 6 | Opinion September becomes a pile-up as publishers swerve to avoid GTA 6 | Opinion

But for now, September is the refuge of choice for games fleeing the GTA 6 launch.

I don't blame publishers for trying to avoid GTA 6's launch window; it's almost certainly going to be one of the biggest media events of the decade so far, let alone the biggest game launch.

All of this bodes poorly for the releases now elbowing their way into September in a mad rush to escape from GTA 6.

Control Resonant, arguably the least well-established IP of the four big September releases, seems to have slipped into September from a planned August release, rather than swerving to avoid GTA 6.

Remedy, perhaps even more than the other three publishers, is undoubtedly now wondering about the commercial pr…

On June 2, UK publisher Secret Mode revealed that it had picked up Chained Together from Anegar Games.

Secret Mode broke away from the Tencent-owned Sumo Group in March 2025, becoming independent with the help of private equity firm Emona Capital.

In terms of the Chained Together deal, Blincoe says it was led by Secret Mode and supported by Emona Capital.

Secret Mode wants to encourage existing players of Chained Together to return.

But since then the player count has dropped considerably: the 24-hour peak on June 4 was 5,842 players.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

Not only is it still, allegedly, developing a Star Wars game, but the studio known for single-player story-focused games is now also working on a competitive multiplayer game called Spellcasters.

Quantic Dream has had quite the odd last few years, perhaps driving its desire for radical change.

Then, for one final surreal twist, Quantic Dream won part of this case but without ever disproving the allegations.

But what about Star Wars: Eclipse?

And that’s also, we are led to believe, still making Star Wars: Eclipse.

However, a recent discovery suggests the new entry in the series may address what is widely considered one of the series' biggest issues: the combat system.

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

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

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

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

Luckily, there's one location where you can quickly find five machines and be done with this challenge.

Forza Horizon 6 vending machine locationsImage 1 of 2 (Image credit: Xbox) (Image credit: Xbox)The best location to visit to find five vending machines is the 365 convenience store at the Minimino Golf Course in the centre of the region, next to the Airfield Trail dirt racing event and the 1969 Dodge Charger R/T Treasure Car.

The Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis system requirements are here—even if the game just got further away
The Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis system requirements are here—even if the game just got further away The Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis system requirements are here—even if the game just got further away

Unfortunately, it's also been delayed through to 2027—but we now have the system requirements at the very least.

The good news is, for a game launching in 2027, most of its specs are pretty breezy to run the game at minimum.

You will need either an Intel i5 8600 or an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 paired with either an 8 GB GTX 1070, RTX 2060 Super, or AMD RX 5700.

As is always the case, system requirements are a rough guide of what to expect, but you will probably want a little above this for more consistent gameplay.

For instance, the latest Lego Batman game actually dropped down its memory requirements, which was a welcome change with the memory crisis ongoing.

With only 4,999 units being made, the laptop's release later this year may be 'blink, and you'll miss it'.

To be fair to the HP Limited Edition Scuderia Ferrari AI PC, it is a looker with a very snazzy 3K tandem OLED+ touch display.

If even after all of that you're still interested in picking up one of the HP's Limited Edition Scuderia Ferrari AI PCs, you've obviously got far deeper pockets than I.

Godot devs are getting a helping hand from Microsoft to bring their games to Xbox on PC Godot devs are getting a helping hand from Microsoft to bring their games to Xbox on PC

Now Microsoft has taken a 'first step' to expanding its user base even further, by releasing a reference sample software package for creating Godot games for Xbox on PC.

Yes, I know I should be writing XBOX on PC, given that Microsoft has decided to settle on the format, but I'll be writing Xbox until I'm in the grave.

Anyway, nomenclature aside, it should be noted that Microsoft hasn't released an 'Xbox-version of Godot' or anything like that.

Instead, it's essentially a demonstration of how to implement all of the necessary Xbox on PC requirements (such as Xbox services, PlayFab, and GameInput) in a Godot-based game.

That doesn't sound overly encouraging, I grant you, but the software gia…

The MSI STRIKE Alloy TMR Can Actually Be Used Underwater!

And not only has MSI thrown every single gaming keyboard buzzword at its new keyboard, but it dunked the keyboard underwater at this year's Computex to prove it will still work.

Reportedly, the wired keyboard still works even when submerged (though the water resistance may cut down your reaction time).

That's a fun bit of marketing and a way of showing off how durable the keyboard is, though you are very unlikely to actually want to use the keyboard underwater.

Still, the likelihood is that if I'm going for any MSI gaming keyboard right now, it's the Frieren collab Forge TKL.

Hyte's new prototype AIO cooler looks to pack funky RGB and transparent shrouds into an affordable package Hyte's new prototype AIO cooler looks to pack funky RGB and transparent shrouds into an affordable package

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Persona 4 remake news feels all-but inevitable, but a little rating weirdness means I wonder about Golden content Persona 4 remake news feels all-but inevitable, but a little rating weirdness means I wonder about Golden content

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Poncle has rolled out an impressive number of Vampire Survivors updates since launch, and it's showing no sign of slowing down.

The update will add a brand new underwater stage called 'The Lycaeum', packed with new enemies and a boatload (heh) of fish weapons.

The dev hasn't shared the official patch notes at the time of writing, but it sounds like the "Wet Update" is shaping up to be a rather big one.

Although the video shows up under the 'Nintendo Switch 2 ver.'

heading on the site and has been placed inside a Switch 2 png., nowhere does it confirm that this is definitely Switch 2 footage.

We have reached out to Bandai Namco for confirmation and will update this post when we get an answer back.

If this is Switch 2 footage that we're looking at, then our fingers are crossed that last year's delay was a smart choice.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Unsurprisingly, many of those have been footballing games, and none have the pedigree in that genre like EA, as EA Sports FC Mobile kicks off a massive new update with The World's Game and its international spotlight.

The World's Game focuses on 'global competition' with 53 fully licensed national teams, including the 41 that have qualified.

But after the split between EA and FIFA, it's hardly surprising that they'd avoid any possible confusion that this was somehow an official World Cup update.

So even if the term World Cup is never uttered once, it's more than worth checking in.

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

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

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

Valve Released A (Flatscreen) 4K Steam Link visionOS App
Valve Released A (Flatscreen) 4K Steam Link visionOS App Valve Released A (Flatscreen) 4K Steam Link visionOS App

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

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

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

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

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

KRVR Supports Apple Vision Pro's Foveated Streaming For SteamVR Games
KRVR Supports Apple Vision Pro's Foveated Streaming For SteamVR Games KRVR Supports Apple Vision Pro's Foveated Streaming For SteamVR Games

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

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

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

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

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