Word of Mobius Digital's new project arrived in a throwaway comment in the patch notes for the final Outer Wilds update.

While Marvel Studios doesn’t officially have an X-Men movie on its slate yet, it’s definitely happening at some point. Probably very soon. And Thunderbolts* director Jake Schreier may be the one to helm it, both The Hollywood Reporter and Deadline reported. Schreier is said to be in early talks to bring the X-Men into the...

If you purchased an Apple device in the last 10 years, you might be able to receive some of the money from the company's recently settled spying lawsuit. The original lawsuit claimed Apple was capturing sensitive information with its Siri voice assistant without users' consent, and sending it to third-party contractors. The company agreed to settle the case for $95 million in January 2025, and thanks to the new landing page for the settlement, there's now a way to file a claim on your own. To fi...

It’s a bird… it’s a plane… no, it’s a feisty Ghost-Poison Pokémon with a giant tongue! On Thursday, DC Comics announced a brand new adaptation of the beloved comic All-Star Superman, but with a twist: It’s a fully cast audiobook retelling, led by prolific voiceover artist Marc Thompson as the Man of Steel. Thompson has...

Wizards of the Coast has announced that Eberron: Forge of the Artificer, the latest Dungeons & Dragons 2024 supplement, is available for pre-order.

Alien: Rogue Incursion, the action-horror adventure from developer Survios, is ditching its headset requirements and getting a non-VR release on PS5 and Steam this September.

Best to let things settle a bit, perhaps.

CEO and founder of Celsius Network Alex Mashinsky has been sentenced to 12 years in prison by a US District Court. Celsius Network held about $25 billion in assets at its height, but was one of the many cryptocurrency operations to fail during 2022. Prosecutors were seeking two decades for Mashinsky, claiming he defrauded and misled customers about the status of his company's CEL token. "His crimes were not the product of negligence, naivete, or bad luck," the attorneys said. "They were the resu...

"Rest assured, there will be thousands of servers grouped together in hundreds of Worlds available at launch," Funcom said.

Threads will finally start giving users more visibility into when their accounts are penalized for breaking its rules. Meta is bringing its “Account Status” feature to Threads, which will enable people to see when the company has removed or demoted posts or handed out other penalties. The change adds a layer of much-needed transparency to Threads, which already has a recommendation algorithm that can be hard for creators to understand. Earlier this year, Meta reversed course on whether it would ...

I'm not sure if the words cosy and apocalypse are generally ones that go hand in hand together, but Doloc Town is positioning itself as just that. Specifically, it's a quite lovely looking pixel-art farming sim set in a post-apocalypse, and it just launched in early access today. Like in many farming sims before it, there's the usual thing of tending to and growing your crops, cooking them up, fishing, that sort of thing. Where it differs is it's all on a 2D plane, obviously meaning you'll have ...

Four more video games have been inducted into the World Video Game Hall of Fame, the Strong National Museum of Play announced Thursday: Williams Electronics’ Defender, Rare’s GoldenEye 007, id Software’s Quake, and Bandai’s Tamagotchi. The quartet of classic games emerged from a list of 2025 World Video Game Hall of Fame nominees that also included...

Between wrangling a full-time job and parenting two young kids (including one born smack in the middle of development), I built The Abandoned Planet from a tiny corner of a Florida bedroom that doubles as office, nursery, and general chaos zone. Picture a Moleskine notebook taking up the last bit of empty space on a […] The post Solo Dev. Two Kids. One Wacom Tablet. The Making of The Abandoned Planet appeared first on Xbox Wire.

Nintendo's lawyers have killed another Palworld gameplay mechanic. Pocketpair issued a patch on Thursday that changes how gliding works in the cheeky "Pokémon with guns" satire. You can still glide in Palworld, but you can no longer use your Pal to do so. Starting with patch v0.5.5, you can only soar with a boring, inanimate glider in your inventory. Although Glider Pals can still passively buff gliding, it's no longer as fun as flinging out the creature and using their aerodynamics to cross a r...

Google today shared details on some of the new ways that it is incorporating artificial intelligence into its search products in order to combat online scams. In Chrome for the desktop, the Enhanced Protection mode for safer browsing now incorporates Gemini Nano, an on-device large language model. Gemini Nano is able to provide instant insight to users about websites that might be risky, even if it's a scam that hasn't been seen before. Google says that Gemini Nano is able to distill the varied,...

Barone doesn't want to "just be the Stardew Valley guy," but a sequel isn't out of the question.

If you've been hankering for a lizard-scented blast of nostalgia, you're in luck; Crystal Dynamics' cult-classic 90s platformer Gex and its two sequels are being bundled up for a PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC release on 16th June.

Name a more iconic duo.

Arrakis opens for a four-day weekend.

Instagram's Threads app began testing advertisements for its users at the start of this year, and the social platform is already ramping up its monetization efforts. Meta announced at IAB NewFronts that it will start testing video ads on Threads. The company didn't get specific about the size or scale of this preliminary test, but said that a "small number" of advertisers will trial 19:9 or 1:1 video ad creatives placed between typical posts in users' feeds. At the NewFronts event, where social ...

Most in-depth simulation games hone in on specific subjects or locations in order to keep their scope manageable. Cities Skylines and Sim City focus on urban centers. Microsoft Flight Simulator, Euro Truck Simulator 2, and Train Sim World each model types of vehicles. Worldwide Rush, though, takes a much broader approach to the genre, combining the globe-spanning scope of a game like Europa Universalis with the logistics management of something like Factorio or Satisfactory. It's also just launc...

Helldivers 2 is, very obviously, a game where you roleplay as space fascists. Like, the game explicitly treats you as fodder for a war against various supposedly evil species all in the name of colonising other planets. It's not subtle! But it's also silly as hell, so the shooter more or less gets away with it. Arrowhead just announced a new warbond though, and I'll be honest: the new outfits are probably the most fascist looking yet.

And hopefully not NFTs.

Adds that Musk has no idea what these agencies do.

THPS Fest at the El Rey Theater in Los Angeles celebrates the return of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 by providing a closer look at some of the parks coming to the game on July 11. Read on for a breakdown of the game content, including a look at the featured skateparks being...

Woopsie!

The middle ages are well represented in strategy games, with some of the most celebrated entries to the genre including projects such as Manor Lords, Crusader Kings 3, Stronghold, and Age of Empires 2. There still seems to be plenty worth pulling from the era, though, if the launch of new Age of Empires and Total War Medieval 2-style RTS Knights of the Crusades is anything to go by. Launched on Monday, the new strategy game has already warranted solid user reviews, currently holding a 95% or 'Po...

After a year of faintly enigmatic developer blogs, Paradox has finally unveiled its sort-of-but-not-exactly-​mysterious Project Caesar, confirming it to be (just as everyone had expected) Europa Universalis 5 - a "new era for grand strategy".

And artwork from Final Fantasy artist. Limited Run Games has shared the release date for the long-awaited return of everyone's favourite gaming gecko, Gex. The Gex Trilogy launches on Switch (and other consoles) on 16th June 2025, and it's obviously getting a rather lavish special edition. So, uh, yeah, let's talk about that collector's edition. Well, there's two of them, but we're mostly referring to the 'Tail Time Edition', a $199.99 bundle that includes — among other expected things — a 36” i...

The Wikimedia Foundation, hosts of the free online encyclopedia Wikipedia, is challenging an aspect of the United Kingdom’s Online Safety Act (OSA). The law aims to protect users from harmful online content by imposing restrictions and fines on large internet platforms such as social media companies. While the law was originally passed in 2023, enforcement and categorization of companies subject to the law are only taking shape now. The law sorts online platforms into categories that are then me...

Refresh that inbox. Today's the day: Nintendo Switch 2 invites are being sent out to those who were able to register their interest in the console, and various other accessories, on the My Nintendo Store in North America. Wario64 shared on Bluesky that emails were "starting to rollout" to some who have registered interest in getting the Switch 2, allowing fans to pre-order the console.

So a professional dominatrix specializing in foot worship signs into her YouTube account for the first time in seventeen years and compiles over 900 playlists, including the debut LP of progressive math-rock band 90 Day Men, an album from hyperpop/chiptune darling Saoirse Dream and portions of the original soundtrack from early 2000s anime Chobits. There's no punchline to that one. Let me explain. Despite an entirely separate paid product — YouTube Music — vanilla YouTube's sometimes spotty enfo...

Microprose has re-established itself as a major player in the simulation game scene over recent years. The publisher is responsible for everything from the upcoming tactical games Airborne Ranger: Fightout and Dagger Directive to the RTS Battlefall: State of Conflict and milsim Exfil.
