Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is here, and like its predecessor Yakuza: Like a Dragon, the game is a full-on turn-based RPG. Like all RPGs, there’s plenty of items and gear to collect in the game, but unlike most games in the genre, it isn’t immediately clear how to get rid of stuff once you don’t want it anymore. There are tons of vendors in the game, but most of them won’t buy your unwanted junk. Don’t worry though, there are ways to empty out your inventory and rake in a bit of extra cash and crafting items. Scroll on […]
While they weren’t quite the blockbuster sellers their publishers hoped they’d be, the recent Deus Ex titles from developer Eidos Montreal have a pretty rabid fanbase who are always eager for any news of Adam Jensen’s return. Back in 2022 the reliable Jason Schreier let slip that Eidos Montreal was moving forward with a new Deus Ex following the acquisition of the IP and studio by Embracer Group. Of course, that was a very different time for Embracer. A time when it seemed pretty much anything could get greenlit at the company and they proudly boasted of the hundreds of […]
Rumors emerged earlier this past weekend, and now Sony itself has confirmed it – a new PlayStation State of Play showcase will be coming our way this week. It sounds like this will be a big one, as Sony is promising to deliver a 40-minute-plus show (most State of Plays are more in the 15-to-20-minute range) covering 15 games. In their announcement, Sony singles out Rise of the Ronin and Stellar Blade as two games that they’re specifically focusing on. Get ready for a new State of Play! https://t.co/KDyuY2Uvfq Tune in on YouTube, Twitch, or TikTok this Wednesday at 2pm […]

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a live service game, there’s no escaping that, but details surrounding what you’ll actually do after you complete the main campaign have remained sketchy. Obviously, endgame content is key to keeping a live-service alive and kicking, so while we’ve got a few scattered details, players are looking for more. Thankfully, today Rocksteady detailed their “Elseworlds” approach to post launch content in a new Suicide Squad Insider video, which you can check out below. In short, each Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League season will introduce a new Elseworlds alternate universe playable environment based […]
Yesterday Microsoft served up their latest Xbox Developer Direct, which offered reveals and information for a number of games, including Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Avowed, and Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II, but it seems there was actually another game teased during the show – Quake 6. As spotted by eagle-eyed fans, during the Indiana Jones reveal segment, we get a brief glimpse of a whiteboard at developer MachineGames, and wait, what’s that on the left side of the image? “AKE 6?” Now, of course, there are different ways you could interpret that – maybe they were writing down breakfast […]
Yesterday we got the big reveal of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and Bethesda and MachineGames didn’t hold back, revealing quite a bit of first-person gameplay and other info about the game’s approach and story. That said, there were a few lingering questions after the presentation, such as, who’s playing Indy and what kind of tech is powering the game? Well, we now have answers on both. Many watching the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle trailer noticed that our protagonist looked like Harrison Ford, but he didn’t quite sound like him. Close, but not quite. Well, that’s because […]
Back in 2024 Microsoft and Bethesda announced a new Indiana Jones game was coming our way courtesy of producer Todd Howard and Wolfenstein developer MachineGames, but since then, very little else has been revealed. Rumors that the game may be launching this year have been making the rounds, but it’s been radio silence from Microsoft and Bethesda themselves. Well, today during the latest Xbox Developer Direct the curtain was finally pulled back on Indiana Jones and the Great Circle (yes that is the official name). We got our first peek at gameplay, and yes, it’s also been confirmed the game […]
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II was one of the first games announced for the Xbox Series X/S all the way back in 2019, and thankfully, it’s been confirmed we’re finally going to get our hands on the game relatively soon. During today’s latest Xbox Developer Direct we got some fresh insight into what developer Ninja Theory is building and a more precise 2024 release date. The new Xbox Developer Direct video offers a few more snippets of footage, although the large majority of it is from the game's most recent trailer. Ultimately though, it's what the devs from Ninja Theory say during […]
We heard last week that Diablo IV Season 3 would be dropping this month, and today Blizzard fully unveiled what that update will entail. Diablo IV: Season of the Construct has a steampunk-ish theme, with new mechanical enemies, and allies, being added to the game. Players will be able to battle side-by-side with an AI “Seneschal Companion,” which you can customize the way you like. You can also delve into the challenging new Vaults, a type of dungeon that will offer big rewards if you can get through them without dying too many times. You can check out the trailer […]
It’s been a shaky few years for Microsoft’s Halo franchise, and it seems a rumored battle royale take on the series isn’t coming to revive its fortunes. Halo Infinite arrived in 2021 to solid reviews, but 343 Industries has failed to deliver a satisfying flow of live-service content for the game’s free-to-play multiplayer. Back in 2022, Austin-Texas-based studio Certain Affinity confirmed that they’d been hired to evolve Halo in “new and exciting ways,” and the rumor was they were working on some sort of battle royale experience codenamed “Tatanka.” Later, it was rumored Certain Affinity’s project may have gone in […]
Keeping with tradition, Bethesda’s Starfield launched with its fair share of bugs and issues, which have been steadily addressed with patches since. Bethesda has now announced Starfield’s biggest update to date will enter Steam Beta next week, with a full launch around two weeks after that. The update promises various visual improvements, fixes for various bugs affecting quests, space exploration, and more. While we don’t have full patch notes yet, Bethesda made the following promises on X. This update contains a multitude of fixes to Quests. Eye of the Storm issues such as being unable to dock with the Legacy […]
