With certain parties targeting payment processors as a way to control what kinds of games are allowed to be sold, paying for games on services like Steam is a little bit weird right now. In fact, if you've tried to pay for something on Steam using PayPal recently, you might've noticed that the option isn't available. This is apparently isolated to certain countries, and now Valve has offered an explanation.
"In early July 2025, PayPal notified Valve that their acquiring bank for payment...

With the arrival of new endgame content in a Monster Hunter Wilds update earlier this week, a pesky crashing bug also snuck into the game. But Capcom has stated that the issue has now been addressed with a hotfix. The patch notes also point to a couple of other problems getting rectified with version 1.021.01.00.
The crashing bug could be triggered by fainting or utilizing fast-travel to get back to camp. Capcom quickly became aware of the problem after releasing the major update for the...
With the official gameplay reveal of Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 scheduled for Gamescom Opening Night Live on August 19, Call of Duty-related teases have begun to surface all across the internet. Even other Call of Duty games aren't immune, as a short vignette has begun playing on screens in Warzone matches--and it features a face that should be familiar to Black Ops fans.
The official Call of Duty social media accounts have uploaded the clip, which will randomly begin playing on video screen...
Former PlayStation boss Shawn Layden has said he believes Microsoft is at a "fork in the road" and is questioning whether the company will keep releasing consoles.
Speaking to GI.biz, Layden said there will certainly be more console generations to come, but Microsoft may not be part of that story. "Watching what Xbox has been doing recently, I do get Dreamcast flashbacks," he said, referencing how Sega got out of the console business after the Dreamcast and became a software company.

After a successful launch in June, Rematch developer Sloclap has been hard at work on patching up some of the game's persisting issues. Today, the team revealed a few of the fixes on the way in the game's next big patch--which include netcode fixes, achievements finally unlocking, and more--while also teasing a cross-play update in the next patch.
Rematch Patch 2 will fix multiple netcode issues players have encountered in the game's first two months, according to the official patch notes...
Diablo 4's next class could be the long-awaited Paladin, if the name of an internal build recently spotted on Blizzard's servers is to be believed.
As originally spotted by Spanish site DiabloNext (via Icy Veins), an internal build for Diablo 4 named "2.5.Xpaladin.67961" allegedly made its way to Blizzard's servers, seemingly hinting that a Paladin class could be in the works.
The 2.5 numbers in the build name appear to be referring to patch 2.5, which would line up with Diablo 4 Season...
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7's campaign could include a brand-new element that brings together single-player and multiplayer. According to Insider Gaming, the game's final campaign mission will morph into a 32-player multiplayer experience that could take the form of some kind of "extraction-based" experience.
The report said a map called Avalon was initially set to be the newest Call of Duty: Warzone map, but it's now being used for the final campaign mission in Black Ops 7.
"It was said...
Gearbox wants to make sure that Borderlands 4 is the smoothest co-op experience you've ever played, and to that end, it's bringing back many hallmark features of the series, as well as some new ones like teleporting to players, in order to polish it off.
In a recent post on Xbox Wire, the team divulged some details on how co-op will factor into the upcoming shooter. Co-op has always been central to the Borderlands games, as well as its spin-off, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, so it shouldn't be...
There's been no shortage of Jurassic Park games over the years, but Jurassic Park: Survival is aiming to be an authentic return to the early days of the film franchise. In a new developer diary, Saber Interactive detailed how it worked alongside Universal Pictures to make its upcoming game look and feel like it was pulled straight out of the 1993 movie that kicked off the entire film franchise.
This approach involved going hands-on with several props from the movie--like dinosaur eggs and...
World of Warcraft's upcoming Legion Remix event is looking to make some big changes to one of the MMORPG's most popular expansions. In addition to letting players and their Artifact weapons become more powerful than ever before, Blizzard is taking some key inspirations from Diablo to add some new twists to the beloved expansion.
In the same vein as last year's Mists of Pandaria Remix event, Legion Remix is set to go live alongside WoW's 11.2.5 update later this year and will be a speedrun...
Amazon Studios has released a new poster for Fallout Season 2, and it teases an iconic location. As suspected, Season 2 is heading to New Vegas, and this poster puts that front and center. Additionally, the streamer has confirmed some kind of reveal for the show at Gamescom Opening Night Live on August 19.
The poster also shows off the main characters, including Lucy (Ella Purnell), The Ghoul (Walton Goggins), Maximus (Aaron Moten), and of course Dogmeat. They're walking dramatically...
Borderlands 4 releases next month on PC and console, and as that date draws closer, developer Gearbox has been releasing a steady stream of videos highlighting the new Vault Hunters in the game. This week, it's time for the hulking warrior Amon to take the spotlight, but don't expect him to be all brawn and very few brains like Brick, the beefy brawler from the first Borderlands game.
Unlike his counterpart, Amon is a tragic warrior with a surprisingly tender side--and an appreciation for...
Borderlands 4 is almost here, bringing four new playable Vault Hunters to the 16-year-old looter shooter franchise. Earlier this year, I went hands-on with Borderlands 4 and got a chance to play as the exosuit-wearing Rafa and fall in love with the delightfully dark Siren, Vex. As we approach the game's release, I spoke with lead character designer Nick Thurston to delve into the abilities, creation, and play style of Amon, a warrior-poet and Viking-inspired warrior who offers a little bit...
Squid Games is taking over Fortnite, as Epic Games has announced that new creator-made games are available now to play. Like its Netflix source material, these are inspired by childhood games, but they're given a deadly twist as failure can result in elimination--at least it's better than what happens to the poor souls who lose a game in the popular TV series.
As you'd expect, there are also a few Fortnite elements present here, and some of the games revolve around lethal sumo rings, a...
One of the most popular game modes in the NBA 2K franchise is MyTeam--2K's version of EA's Ultimate Team--in which players can build their own super squads using player cards purchased in packs or earned through in-game challenges. NBA 2K26 is looking to improve on the MyTeam experience with a groundbreaking addition, as the players and teams of the WNBA will be available in the mode for the first time ever.
WNBA players will be "fully integrated" into MyTeam in this year's NBA 2K game...
The price of many products is increasing of late, due in part to tariffs and other economic conditions, and this has stretched to gaming as well. Against this backdrop, FuturLab has released a tongue-in-cheek trailer for PowerWash Simulator 2 that confirms the standalone sequel's price--$25 USD--which is the same as the first game.
"FuturLab acknowledges that in the current cost-of-living climate, players often have limited budgets for games and entertainment. For many, PowerWash Simulator...
Guild Wars publisher NCSoft has a number of titles in the works, but as shared during its Q2 2025 earnings call, several of them have just received a delay. First up there's the very Genshin Impact-like Breakers: Unlock the World, originally due to be released some time this year, has now been delayed to Q1 2026. Then there's Time Takers, which has been pushed into a Q2 2026 release window, and the history-blending sci-fi shooter Project LLL is expected in late Q3 2026. Aside from these...
Ever since the beta of Battlefield 6 was released, players have been trying to figure out how to disable the Adaptive Triggers on their PlayStation 5 controllers. The Adaptive Trigger feature on the PS5 controller is fairly controversial, as you either seem to love or hate using it. Some players feel Adaptive Triggers add to the immersion of whatever game they're playing, while others don't like having their triggers fight them when they're trying to shoot an enemy.
If you don't enjoy...
If you've been looking for an online co-op game with some Alien vibes, the upcoming top-down tactical shooter DarkSwarm might just tickle your fancy. The debut title from Bitfire Games, and published by Deep Rock Galactic developer Ghost Ship Games, DarkSwarm is receiving its first closed alpha next month, and the pair of studios has confirmed just when that kicks off: September 2.
In DarkSwarm, you play as a team of "synthetically engineered elite mercenaries," tasked with various missions...
Battlefield 6's open beta returned today, August 14, for its second and final weekend of testing. One of the new additions for Weekend 2 was the classic Battlefield mode Rush--but not everyone is enjoying the setup in Battlefield 6.
It was immediately discovered that Rush mode in Battlefield 6 limits matches to 12v12, for a total of 24 players--at least in the beta. People on Reddit and elsewhere online are saying this is simply too small. The current iteration of Rush in the beta is also...
