Open world crime blockbuster Grand Theft Auto 6 has been delayed until next year, say Rockstar, telling fans that they "need this extra time to deliver at the level of quality you expect and deserve". It's not the biggest surprise - delays happen. But it's a slightly embarrassing announcement given that Strauss Zelnick, big boss of publisher Take-Two, has twice publicly reassured investors that the game would release on time in autumn this year. The announcement comes with some sense of relief, ...

The new Steam Hardware Survey is out, and we’re now starting to see some of the latest generation of GPUs creeping up the chart. Several of the latest Nvidia GeForce graphics cards are now appearing, including the RTX 5070 and 5070 Ti, as well as the more expensive RTX 5080. There are two new GPUs that are conspicuous by their absence, though, and those are the new AMD Radeon RX 9070 cards.

Not only will you be getting one of the best handheld gaming PCs, but you'll save over $120, although based on current MSRPs, this saving is actually a lot higher. In our ROG Ally review, we praised its "phenomenal portable performance" but took issue with its high price at the time of release. Multiple price cuts have since ma...

In an earnings call for the quarter ending in March, Apple CEO Tim Cook said the company expects to pay around $900 million for US tariffs for the months of April to June. Apple saw limited impacts from tariffs for the months January through March, which doesn't come as a surprise since most of the government's new import taxes didn't exist before April. The company was also able to optimize its supply chain and inventory before then. Cook admitted that Apple can't give a precise estimate of the...

Apple has updated its App Store guidelines to comply with the orders of a California court, which required the company to immediately stop collecting commissions on purchases that weren't paid through the App Store.

Microsoft has teased a new Surface Copilot+ PC set to be revealed on May 6th, the company announced on X. "Something new is coming… find out next week," the post states.

The rumor mill has it that Microsoft is working on a smaller 11- or 12-inch...

In 2023, I tested my first OLED gaming monitor for Engadget, the LG 27GR95QE. Coming from an IPS LCD, the LG screen was transformational. Its WOLED (White OLED) panel produced inky blacks that made every game look incredible, and it allowed me to experience HDR gaming on a PC for the first time. But as amazing as that monitor was, it was a first generation product and it had a couple of problems. It produced text fringing that made it distracting to use for productivity tasks, and it would flick...

The GTA 6 launch date has been confirmed by Rockstar, but unfortunately, the game will not arrive in 2025 as was originally expected. The studio behind Grand Theft Auto 5, Red Dead Redemption 2, and GTA Online previously said that the Vice City-set sequel would come in 2025, but now confirms that the game will in fact be released in 2026. Seems like we have longer to enjoy the world of Los Santos before departing for the sunny shores of Leonida.

But no Switch 2 confirmation yet. Rockstar Games has announced that Grand Theft Auto 6 will be released on 26th May, 2026. That's right, it's no longer scheduled for this year. Not entirely surprising, to be honest, but at least we have a date now. Obviously, what's not yet clear at this stage is whether the game is heading for the Nintendo Switch 2. Hopefully we'll get full confirmation of this pretty soon, though.

It'll appear close to where new players spawn and hides a number of threats and fun. Poisonous snakes will skitter through the undergrowth and riverside crocs will chew your face given the chance. There are ruins and temples hidden among the trees, housing some basic loot. And you can swing from vines, perhaps inspiring a whole new life in t...
