Cyberpunk roguelike Kiborg drops brutal Steam Next Fest demo

Have you ever watched The Running Man, that dystopian film set in the far-off year of… 2017? And did you ever think "hey, I want a piece of that action"? If literally yes, then I have concerns, given it's about a reality TV show where convicted criminals try to escape from professional killers. But if it's in more of a "this would be fun in a completely safe environment where I don't actually die" kind of way, then the upcoming cyberpunky action roguelike Kiborg might be the game for you. Best o...

Report: Apple's C1 Is Just the Beginning of Modem Changes

Apple plans to move away from Qualcomm modems in the Apple Watch while bolstering its new in-house alternatives, according to The Information's Wayne Ma. Later this year, Apple plans to eliminate the Qualcomm modem used in the Apple Watch Ultra. Rather than using the C1 modem or another custom Apple chip, Apple plans to switch from using Qualcomm units to MediaTek ones. MediaTek is one of the few companies capable of designing 5G modems. In 2026, Apple will debut a new custom modem with support ...

Overwatch 2 got “too conservative,” but Season 15 proves taking risks works

Overwatch 2 is having quite the resurgence at the moment. The ever-iconic hero shooter has struggled to move the needle since its rocky launch back in 2022, and has been buried by new competitors in recent months - NetEase's Marvel Rivals specifically. But then Season 15 rolled around. Adding the new perk system to the game and reintroducing loot boxes, Overwatch 2's recent Steam reviews place it in the 'Mixed' category as opposed to 'Mostly Negative,' where it's been sitting ever since it launc...

The iPhone 16e reportedly supports USB-C fast charging up to 29W, according to a regulatory filing published in China (via MySmartPrice). If accurate, this is broadly in line with the iPhone 16 models. Last year, ChargerLAB found that the iPhone 16 Pro models achieved maximum sustained charging speeds of around 30W. PhoneArena saw similar results with the standard iPhone 16, although under heavy load the phones would start charging at 38W. We'll have to wait for testing in the wild to confirm th...

A lawsuit between Sony and a fired Bungie director is getting messy. Sony have revealed the text messages sent by the former director, which they say are proof of his "predatory behaviour" and justify their decision to dismiss him. Christopher Barrett was removed from his position last year in a dramatic reshuffle and it was later revealed that the reasons included alleged "inappropriate" and "unwanted" messages to female staff at the studio. In response to the allegations, Barrett sued Bungie a...

If you couldn’t stomach $800 for a new iPhone with Apple Intelligence, don’t worry: Apple just announced the iPhone 16e. At $599, it strikes a balance on specs, which is the soft and cosy way to say it doesn’t have everything. It has a lot, though. With a 6.1-inch screen, it’s a much bigger device than the 4.7-inch iPhone SE, with a notch for FaceID (no more TouchID), USB-C (adios, Lightning) and the company’s A18 processor. There’s also an action button, which arrived with the iPhone 15 series,...

Right off the bat it'll remind you of tabletop games like Mansions of Madness, where you're trying to navigate a haunted house, except in this time around you are the haunted house. Neat twist!
