Artemis II, the first crewed mission under the Artemis program, is scheduled to launch today, April 1. NASA is opening a two-hour window for its lift off, starting at 6:24 PM Eastern time, at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The agency said the forecast for launch day “shows an 80 percent chance of favorable weather conditions” and that, on March 31, its engineers had finished critical health checks on the Space Launch System rocket that the mission will use. On the evening of March 31, the ...

Marathon has seen significant changes as part of its latest balance patch, including the outright removal of its most busted movement technique, the re-opening of a controversial shortcut in The Outpost map, and made the loot (and challenge) of The Outpost's central region harder.

The Fallout TV show remains one of the biggest video game adaptations so far, and at this point we could argue it's the most critically successful one too. Prime Video's global audiences seem to agree, as we've just learned over 83 million people have (at least) watched parts of Season 2.

Despite crossover characters such as Fox McCloud appearing in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, that doesn't mean we should expect something akin to a Super Smash Bros. film any time soon.

Wrapped in creepy Japanese folklore and offering a tense atmosphere, Ghostwire Tokyo has stuck out as one of my favorite Bethesda titles, and it's at a brilliantly low price right now.

The Swiss robotics engineer behind a commercial case that adds USB-C to Lightning iPhones has now built a reverse version: A case that adds a fully functional Lightning port to the iPhone 17 Pro. Ken Pillonel describes the project as a tongue-in-cheek response to reader requests, and says he has no plans to sell it. "It's part hack, part mod, and one of the most cursed things I've ever built," he wrote in the video description, "Be careful what you wish for." The build involved designing custom ...

Apple was founded on April 1, 1976, meaning the company is officially 50 years old as of today. To honor the occasion, we have reflected on some of Apple's biggest moments of each decade, from the 1970s through to the 2020s. Apple has an extensive history, so this list is far from comprehensive, but it captures some of the pivotal events over the company's first 50 years. 1970s While the Apple-1 was released in 1976, it was the Apple II in 1977 that became the company's first successful, mass-ma...

Somebody get this man a Pikmin. Miyamoto has spoken on many occasions about his love of Pikmin and how there is effectively no restriction on where they can appear. We've seen them pop up in Mario Wonder, on the back of football shirts, and even at Nintendo's theme parks, and their global expansion is set to continue. Speaking to IGN recently, Miyamoto has reiterated how it's his "mission" to try and get Pikmin in any kind of Nintendo product he can.

But he'll always give Pikmin the spotlight. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie goes beyond the Mushroom Kingdom and introduces a whole new cast of characters. As we now know, there'll also be characters that aren't even from this particular Nintendo universe. It's led to discussion once again about a possible "Smash Bros.-style Nintendo Cinematic Universe" movie, so what are the chances of it actually happening?

Only Reacher had a more popular second season on the service.

Use this code while you can. Pokémon Pokopia only just arrived on the Switch 2, but it's already dishing out plenty of free goodies for trainers to claim.

Select from five cover options. Last year, as part of its 10th anniversary, physical distributor Limited Run Games announced a new partnership with Capcom. This was followed with a bunch of physical announcements, and in an update, a physical Switch version of Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium has now been revealed. This follows pre-orders for the first Capcom Arcade Stadium going live earlier this year.

And maybe you can help me with the stuff sitting in my cart.

Hey kids, it's Mario.

Good news, trainers. If you've been wondering when Pokémon Legends: Z-A will be getting connectivity with the storage and trading cloud service app Pokémon Home, we've got some news. The Pokémon Company has officially announced Home on Switch and mobile devices will undergo maintenance at 9:00am JST on 2nd April 2026, adding support for Pokémon Legends: Z-A.

You probably can't do this.

Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland is more daydream than nightmare.

For longtime fans, but the name at the bottom of the box is everything.

Apple today released new firmware for its second-generation AirTag item trackers. The firmware has a 3.0.45 version number, up from 3.0.41, and it is the first firmware update that Apple has provided for the ‌AirTag‌ 2 that launched in January 2026. ‌AirTag‌ updates are infrequent, and there is no word yet on what's included in the new firmware. Apple has shared release notes in the past, and software updates are usually bug fixes and improvements. In the past, new ‌AirTag‌ firmware was distribu...

Does The Super Mario Galaxy Movie have a post-credits scene? You bet, and it's worth sticking around to see the latest Marioverse expansion tease.

There is always a risk with a live service game, or any game with only competitive elements, that it enters the Cool For Some Zone. This is a space that exists within a given game and also around it, a place where you can pull off Sick Tricks as a result of movement tech not purposefully included in the game, but born as an incidental result of mashing buttons in just the right way. And until today, Marathon found itself in said zone, but Bungie have made the call to patch out the offending issu...

"If I have one parting lesson to give to the industry, it's never say die."

Two pieces of good gaming news today. First: Dinosaur Polo Club has shadow dropped a brand new game today. Second, it's available for free on both PC and Mac from Itch.io. The project is called Read the F*cking Manual, or RTFM, and it is a co-op game based on working in tech support. Dinosaur Polo Club is known for previous games Mini Metro and Mini Motorways. Both are stellar examples of simple, elegant game design, and a small group within the company took this game jam concept from passion pr...

Against all odds, A24’s adaptation of The Backrooms actually looks like a proper elevated horror movie. Hell, it’s even got Oscar winner Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years a Slave, Serenity) and Cannes favorite Renate Reinsve (Sentimental Value) onboard. Judging from the film’s fist trailer, which combines The Backrooms creepypasta-born dread around liminal spaces, and A24’s slick horror aesthetic, you couldn’t tell that its director can’t even legally drink in the US yet. Yes folks, Kane Parsons is jus...

Here's how to get the Chillfallen Sword in Crimson Desert, a beautiful one-handed weapon that you can add to your arsenal.

As pretty (and ugly) as the Resident Evil games have become over the years, there is a quality to the original PS1 entries that lingers on in the hearts of many. That'll likely be partially down to the permanently raised heart rates of kids playing them too young everywhere. But I think the thing that endures in the ever popular PS1 aesthetic in the indie horror scene is that nasty griminess that just feels so at home. And Vultures - Scavengers of Death, a turn-based, extractiony take on Residen...

More headaches for Ubisoft.

As Elder Scrolls Online Season Zero finally arrives, Zenimax teases a packed follow-up with the Thieves Guild and Morrowind-style questing.

Out of this world? Critic reviews for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie have just dropped ahead of the film's theatrical release tomorrow, 1st April 2026. And, folks, it looks like it's another mixed bag if early reviews are to go by. We haven't had a chance to watch the movie early, and we'll have our verdict in asap, so for now, let's see what the rest of the industry has to say.

You can't even get 40 people into a raid anymore.

Toyota is teaming up with Daimler and Volvo to work on fuel cell technology. The Japanese company is signing on to the joint venture cellcentric that Volvo and Daimler launched back in 2020. Once it officially joins, Toyota and cellcentric will collaborate on managing the development and production of fuel cell unit cells.  "We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to soon be joining Daimler Truck and Volvo Group as partners in building a hydrogen society," Toyota President and CEO Koji Sato s...

In a letter shared with Senator Ed Markey (D-Mass.), Tesla admitted that its robotaxis are sometimes driven remotely by human operators, Wired reports. Competing self-driving car companies sometimes rely on human operators to tell robotaxi software how to get itself unstuck, but letting operators actually drive those cars remotely is more unusual. "​​As a redundancy measure in rare cases … [remote assistance operators] are authorized to temporarily assume direct vehicle control as the final esca...

Marvel Studios is reportedly considering moving the release date for Avengers: Doomsday to one week earlier — and that's a good thing.
