Epic Games is gearing up for its biggest shake-up to Fortnite Creative since the introduction of the Unreal Editor for Fortnite. Soon, Epic will allow developers who use UEFN to make Fortnite Creative modes, or "islands," to sell in-game items using V-Bucks, the game's real-money currency.
The news, which Epic announced during the Veteran's Day holiday in the US, was not met with much excitement from fans. The way the Fortnite Creative ecosystem is currently crammed with clones of tycoon...

While the latest firmware update for Switch and Switch 2 included several quality-of-life improvements, one consequence appears to be that many third-party docks have been rendered useless. According to Nintendo itself, such a consequence was unintentional.
In a statement, Nintendo spelled out the obvious, saying: "Nintendo Switch 2 outputs audiovisuals once it detects that it is docked into a Nintendo Switch 2 Dock. Nintendo Switch does the same, outputting audiovisuals once it detects...
Activision has once again confirmed that AI tools were used in the development of Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, which is in keeping with tradition for the franchise, as Black Ops 6 utilized AI tools as well. In a statement, Activision said the creative process is handled by humans, with AI tools helping out. Back in August, Activision explained that developers working on Black Ops 7 used generative AI, but "none of that goes in-game."
"Like so many around the world, we use a variety of digital...

He told IGN that people should not look to GTA 6 to help address the wider, more systemic issues impacting the video game...
Activision and developer Treyarch have an official excuse for people who want to blow off work to play Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 today. The Replacer, a fictional character portrayed by Peter Stormare, has written a sick note for players to give to their bosses, while jokingly adding that he will step in and boost productivity.

Dragami Games has announced that the upcoming Switch 2 port of Lollipop Chainsaw has been delayed. It was previously set to launch this November but is now coming in "early 2026."
The developer said the delay was due to the volume of requests for a physical edition of the game's RePOP remaster version. The studio wanted to align the digital and physical releases, so it opted to delay all versions to 2026.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is now out, and while this new entry in the long-running franchise doesn't stray far from its traditional action-packed gameplay in the single-player campaign, there is one big difference here: You can't pause the game.
The always-online campaign doesn't allow players to take a quick break during a firefight, as the game continues with or without you. This means you'll need to find a safe place to camp out in case you need to take a breather away from your...
