Much coverage of Sid Meier's Civilization VII has compared the Firaxis 4X to Amplitude's 2021 release Humankind. As our dirty turncoat strategy game columnist Sin Vega briefly explores in her review for Eurogamer, the game's Age structure, which hands you a new culture at intervals in each campaign, is reminiscent of Humankind's Era transitions.

The next major Apple Watch software update arriving this year will only feature some of the new UI design changes that Apple is preparing for iOS 19, but watchOS 12 won't get a complete interface overhaul like Apple's iPhone software, according to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman.

The Escape From Tarkov Arena system requirements have been released, now that the game is officially in early access, and they're shockingly low.
