Nintendo has finally revealed the release date of its forthcoming Switch 2 console.

Nintendo Switch 2 will launch on Thursday, June 5, Nintendo announced Wednesday during its Nintendo Direct showcase dedicated to the new console. Nintendo will have multiple launch games ready for the system’s launch, including Mario Kart World and Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour, a digital “tour” of the Switch 2. The launch of Switch 2...

Get the gang together. One of the Switch 2's many new features revealed in today's Direct is 'GameShare', a new way to play select games with your pals across multiple systems. GameShare lets you play multiplayer titles locally across different systems, with only one of you needing to have the game installed. This feature is available between Switch 2 systems and from Switch 2 to 'Switch 1' systems, so you can finally play with a screen of your own.

If there’s one thing Nintendo has always understood, it’s that everyone may want to play together, but might not all own the same game. With the Switch 2, the company is launching GameShare, enabling local multiplayer on multiple consoles with just one copy of a title. Yes friends, this is the wireless multiplayer feature from the Nintendo DS or, depending on your era, the modern day GameBoy Link Cable. With the first Switch, multiplayer was limited to sharing JoyCons on the same console hardwar...

We’ve suspected that the Nintendo Switch 2 will use microSD cards, just like the original Switch, for the purpose of storing more games than can fit on its internal storage. But Nintendo shared during its Direct showcase that the Switch 2 supports microSD Express cards, which retain the same size and shape of microSD cards,...

So soon! Well folks, the rumours and speculation can finally end; Nintendo has confirmed that the Switch 2 will launch on 5th June 2025. We don't have a price just, but we'll update this article as soon as we hear more.

After months of speculation, we now know what happens when you press the Switch 2’s mysterious C button thanks to today’s Nintendo Direct presentation.

Smooth! Nintendo has confirmed that the Switch 2 screen will not be OLED at launch, but rather LCD. That said, it's confirmed that the screen will be 1080p and will support frame rates of up to 120fps. HDR is also supported.

After months of speculation, Nintendo announced the Switch 2 console on Jan. 16 — and that was about it. With close-ups of the new unit and a few shots of a (theoretical) new Mario Kart, Nintendo went the Nintendo route of meeting extreme demand by doing whatever the hell it wanted on whatever timetable it...

Time to chat! Nintendo has finally revealed what that mysterious 'C' button does on the Switch 2. In short, it's Game Chat! With Game Chat, you'll be able to communicate with friends and family via a microphone built into the system, picking up your voice from a distance. If you're in a noisy environment, it'll still pick up your voice easily.

Breaking the wall in all new ways. A brand new camera for the Nintendo Switch 2 will put gamers into their games in all new ways, according to the latest Nintendo Direct. With lots of footage of a group of players seamlessly enjoying the all-new Mario Kart World and a few other new titles with their avatars, faces, and voices included - via the all-new Game Chat - to give you new ways to interact with pals.

As suggested by the initial Switch 2 reveal, the big launch game for Nintendo’s new system will be an all-new Mario Kart. It’s called Mario Kart World and will launch alongside the console, Nintendo revealed during Wednesday’s Switch 2 Direct. Mario Kart World is an open-world racing game in the style of Forza Horizon, in...

The 2025 Audi e-tron GT RS Performance has a special way of welcoming you. As you approach, it does the usual show of blinking headlights and tail lights, plus puddle lamps projecting red RS logos on the ground. That's nothing special these days. But when you get to the door and reach for the handle the car literally rises to meet you, springing up two full inches to ease your entry into this ultra-low, extremely long sport tourer. At least, it will do that if you spend the extra $11,000 for the...

Video editing workflows are getting a lot more colorful. Adobe recently announced massive updates to Adobe Premiere Pro (beta) and Adobe Media Encoder, including PC support for 4:2:2 video color editing. The 4:2:2 color format is a game changer for professional video editors, as it retains nearly as much color information as 4:4:4 while greatly Read Article

It is time once again to shake our fists at the sky over the untimely, messy splintering of Disco Elysium as a cultural phenomenon. Yesterday, Youtuber Jamrock Hobo leaked a presentation for Locust City - An Elysium Story, an abandoned project that would have expanded the original RPG's detective odd-couple premise by having you control two returning characters simultaneously, each with their own furiously personified skill tree and Thought Cabinet of percolating ideas.

On Monday, an internal presentation for a planned standalone expansion to 2019’s Disco Elysium was uploaded to YouTube. The presentation was recorded prior to the game’s reported cancellation in June of last year. The video, published by Disco Elysium fan account Jamrock Hobo, concerns Locust City – An Elysium Story, a standalone expansion set in...

They get rid of the mental stress that is, "Where on Earth did I put that?" Thankfully, Apple's AirTags are not only convenient, but they're currently on sale.  Right now, you can get a four-pack of AirTags for just $68, down from $99.

Wikimedia has seen a 50 percent increase in bandwidth used for downloading multimedia content since January 2024, the foundation said in an update. But it's not because human readers have suddenly developed a voracious appetite for consuming Wikipedia articles and for watching videos or downloading files from Wikimedia Commons. No, the spike in usage came from AI crawlers, or automated programs scraping Wikimedia's openly licensed images, videos, articles and other files to train generative arti...

Nothing beats commandeering your own colossal hunk of metal. Whether it’s diving in and out of BT in Titanfall 2, gliding around the battlefield in Armored Core 6, or engaging in high-octane action in Mecha Break, your opportunities to fight alongside mechs are incredibly varied. New free-to-play PvPvE mech battler Steel Hunters is the next release to jump on the gigantic robot train, and it looks as intense as you’d expect. From Wargaming, the studio behind World of Tanks, Warships, and Warplan...

Samsung is releasing two Fan Edition models of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10, and they're both more affordable than their standard counterparts. The Galaxy Tab S10 FE and the Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ are powered by the Samsung Exynos 1580 chipset instead of MediaTek processors like the standard versions. Samsung's Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ model has a 13.1-inch display, which is bigger than the Tab S10+'s 12.4-inch screen but smaller than the 14.6-inch one on the Tab S10 Ultra. Take note that both models have a...

Roblox is again updating its parental control features in an effort to give parents more visibility into (and control over) their children’s activities on the platform. The company is updating its in-app “Safety Center” to counter concerns that Roblox, which unlike social media apps allows children under 13, puts its youngest users at risk. The company added the centralized hub for parental controls last year, in an update that also added new restrictions on younger kids’ ability to exchange pri...

It's time! It's finally here! After what's felt like an age, the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct is upon us. We don't know about you, but even with the avalanche of information that's about to drop (and the hand cramps that will no doubt follow in the coming hours from all the typing), it feels like a weight has been lifted from our shoulders. Rumours of a Switch successor have been swirling for years and we've been absolutely desperate to find out what Nintendo has been cooking. Now it's finally time.

Plex is rolling out a new version of its mobile app, and it's a fairly major redesign that features expanded artwork, streamlined navigation, and a dedicated tab for centralized media libraries designed for "personal media pros." Plex said in a forum post that the updated app is being fully deployed over the course of the week, and introduces several key improvements based on user feedback received during its preview testing phase. If you installed the beta version of the app, which was made ava...

"You fight fire with fire". Of all the gaming brands, it's fair to say that Tetris and Super Mario can both stand proud as two of the most instantly recognisable. They're practically synonymous with the medium, and it's clear that Henk Rogers, the entrepreneur who secured the rights to Tetris, knew the value of Alexey Pajitnov's remarkable creation. In fact, as highlighted in VGC's feature piece on Rogers' new book, The Perfect Game - Tetris: From Russia With Love, he wrote about his dealings wi...
