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 […]

The first official GTA VI trailer set new records right away, becoming the most-viewed YouTube video (except for two songs by South Korean boy band BTS) on its launch day. In just 34 hours, the trailer had already amassed 100 million views. It's been a little over seven months since December 5, and the GTA VI trailer has now reached the impressive milestone of 200 million views. For comparison, the debut GTA V trailer only has around 111 million views despite having been on YouTube for twelve years. The trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto installment also helped its […]
GTA 6 sales likely won't be affected by the game's launch window, according to Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick. Yesterday, GTA 6 publisher and Rockstar owner Take-Two Interactive confirmed that the highly-anticipated next entry in the franchise would be released in the fall of 2025. Some hoped that the title would be released in early 2025, but that won't be the case. During the company's most recent earnings call with investors, CEO Straus Zelnick was asked whether a release during the 2025 holiday season would have an additive effect. According to Zelnick, releasing the game in early 2025 or late […]
We’ve known for a while that Grand Theft Auto VI is coming out sometime in 2025, but when specifically in the year it might arrive has remained an open question. Some have held out some despearate hope that an early-2025 might happen, but it seems that’s not in the cards. Today as part of their latest earnings report Take-Two Interactive clarified that GTA VI is coming out in fall of calendar year 2025. “As we enter Fiscal 2025 with positive momentum, we expect to deliver Net Bookings of $5.55 to $5.65 billion. Our outlook reflects a narrowing of Rockstar Games' […]
Grand Theft Auto fans unite! A known YouTuber has recreated the first GTA 6 trailer in real life, and it looks absolutely stunning. Since the release of the first trailer back in December of last year, we've seen several recreations of the already-legendary trailer, including a faithful recreation in GTA V, and a hilarious recreation from car manufacturer Hyundai. Fast forward four months, and YouTuber 'Andrew Levitt' has now recreated the GTA 6 trailer using real-life locations. The result is spectacular and you can imagine the amount of work that has gone into creating this video. Rockstar's first trailer for its […]
GTA 6's main protagonist, Jason, isn't being voiced by famous voice actor Troy Baker. That's what Baker has suggested in a recent interview with YouTuber 'The Movie Dweeb'. We've included the video with Baker talking about his role in The Last of Us HBO series and NOT voicing Jason below. In the insanely-popular first trailer for the upcoming GTA 6, we can see main protagonists Jason and Lucia with the former only saying a single word in the video - "Trust". Fans, however, have suggested that Jason's voice is Baker's. In the interview, the voice actor pointed out that literally […]
A few days ago, Kotaku published a report suggesting Grand Theft Auto 6 may be delayed to late 2025 or even 2026. We didn't report on it because it seemed ephemeral rather than substantial, which Bloomberg's Jason Schreier (formerly of Kotaku himself) has now confirmed. Schreier reached out to sources inside Rockstar Games, who reacted to the rumor by essentially shrugging. There's no specific reason to believe in any delay, but of course, it can always happen. It's just too early to know for sure. Grand Theft Auto V, the second best-selling premium game of all time after Minecraft with […]
Last December, after literally years of speculation, rumors, and leaks, Rockstar finally dropped the first teaser for Grand Theft Auto VI, with a broad 2025 release date attached. It was appropriate that the GTA VI trailer used a Tom Petty song, because the waiting is indeed the hardest part, but at least fans have a firm 2025 end goal in sight… right? Right? Well, about that… according to a new report from Kotaku, Rockstar’s current goal is to finally get Grand Theft Auto VI in our hands by early 2025, but production is falling behind where it needs to be, […]
GTA VI was unsurprisingly brought up several times during Take-Two's Q3 2024 earnings call. When an analyst from BMO Capital Markets asked how the publisher and Rockstar would settle on the release date, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick said in response: We're seeking perfection. And when we feel we've optimized creatively, that's the time to release. And we're all in this together. In terms of motivations and incentives, the financial incentives of everyone who works at this company are aligned with those of the shareholders. So we essentially have -- call it what you will, we have profit sharing plans throughout […]
Ubisoft has reported their earnings for the third quarter of their fiscal year 2024 (which runs from the beginning of April 2023 to the end of March 2024) and things are looking somewhat up for the Assassin’s Creed publisher following rough patches over the last few years. With revenue of €606 million, Q3 was down a bit year-on-year, likely due to somewhat disappointing performance of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, but Ubisoft is expecting a good Q4 due to Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown and Skull and Bones with Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot somewhat questionably referring to the latter as […]
The GTA 6 trailer was remade using GTA V's assets, further highlighting how big the visual quality gap will be between the two main entries in the series. While the remade trailer, which was put together by GTA Belgium, highlights the visual quality difference between the two games, it also highlights how the fifth entry in the series has stood the test of time surprisingly well, which is quite an achievement, considering the game originally released on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. That GTA 6 will be one of the best-looking open-world games ever made is almost guaranteed, as the […]
A known GTA outlet has taken to X to tease a "big surprise" related to GTA 6 for later today. This 'news' comes from outlet GTABase.com, who wrote the following on X some hours ago. "BIG SURPRISE IN A FEW HOURS" the post reads, accompanied by a GTAVI hashtag. At the moment of writing, additional information hasn't been shared, and we're not really sure what to make of this post. The "surprise" that the outlet has teased could be related to today's The Game Awards event, but the post reads "in a few hours", and was made around five hours […]
Following the release of the record-breaking GTA VI trailer, there has been an equally large amount of reactions from all kinds of content creators and personalities. Among that sea, former Rockstar New England animator Mike York published his own reaction as an ex-employee of the studio. York worked on GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 for six years before leaving Rockstar (most recently, he worked on God of War Ragnarok in the final stretch to launch), and he was extremely impressed with the level of visuals achieved in GTA VI. It's not just a bigger city. Everything in the […]
