The age of AI has barely begun, but there are some in the industry who see it as an absolute necessity for the future. Electronic Arts, for example, has reportedly instructed its employees to treat AI as "thought partners" in every aspect of game creation. However, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick isn't buying into the hype, and he doesn't believe AI will ever be able to compete with Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto games.
"Let's say there were no constraints [on AI]," said Zelnick during an...

The daily Treasure Hunter has been a part of Runescape since 2014, and some of the game's players openly resent it as a pay-to-win feature that diminishes the experience for fans who don't utilize it. Jagex has been exploring its options for the feature, and now the developer is leaving Treasure Hunter's fate in the hands of the fans.
Jagex has started an online poll that will determine if Treasure Hunter will stay in Runescape. If 100,000 players vote to remove Treasure Hunter, it will be...

Battlefield Redsec is the military shooter series' new free-to-play battle royale game. A great way to gain an advantage over your opponents in Redsec is to use custom weapon loadouts. Custom weapon builds are often better than the ground loot you'll find in your matches, but acquiring your personal guns isn't as straightforward as it is in other battle royales like Warzone.
Battlefield 6 and Battlefield Redsec feature shared progression, meaning all the weapons and attachments you unlock...
Another major outage has hit the internet, as Microsoft Azure is experiencing issues. The company confirmed that its cloud computing service had begun to experience issues earlier today, and this has had an impact on several Microsoft services and the Xbox network across the globe.

Your order will be shipped and sold by Amazon, but unfortunately it won't arrive until mid-November.
Pokemon Trading Card Game prices have been extremely volatile this year, even at major retailers like Amazon...

There are plenty of ways to earn loot in Battlefield Redsec. Whether you go around looting every chest across Fort Lyndon, pick up loot off enemy players, or find a custom weapon drop, your inventory should be kitted out fairly quickly after dropping into a match. However, one of the easiest and most lucrative ways to score some loot in Redsec is by completing missions.
Every team in Redsec is given three dedicated missions to complete right after a match begins. You can also find missions...
YouTube is updating its policies to age-restrict more content containing video game scenes with "graphic violence," the company announced on Tuesday. Starting November 17, the updates will prevent accounts under 18 and signed-out users from watching videos with games focused on showing "realistic human characters" involved in scenes of "mass violence against non-combatants" or torture. It'll also cover online gambling, even when no actual money is involved.

With the leap of Halo to PlayStation 5, some observers have facetiously declared the console wars to be over. Despite rumors that Microsoft is getting out of the console business, the company is working with AMD on future consoles and devices. Now, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has shared some thoughts about the next Xbox, which may indicate that it will be more like a PC.
"We want to do innovative work on the system side, on the console and PC. It's kind of funny that people think about the...
I think we can all agree that a good title makes a great first impression, especially in the busy landscape of video games. Look no further than The Crazy Hyper-Dungeon Chronicles, an indie RPG game from developer Fix-a-Bug whose satirical tone is quite obvious from the jump. Can you believe it had an even funnier name in Japan?
In an interview with Game*Spark (h/t Automaton for the translation and reporting) the game's developer Paolo Nicoletti admitted a hilarious anecdote from its...

In the wake of Krafton Inc. becoming an "AI-first" company, developer Unknown Worlds Entertainment said that it won't adhere to its publisher's wishes, confirming that the team isn't using generative AI for the action-adventure survival sim Subnautica 2.
In a post on the game's official Discord server, community manager Donya Abramo explained the relationship between a publisher and a developer. Likening it to that of a library, Abramo said that Krafton Inc. provides the tools while Unknown...
Tanks are at the center of controversy in the early stages of Battlefield Redsec. Just like in Battlefield 6 multiplayer, you can use tanks throughout a match in the battle royale, which can allow you to steamroll your way to victory if no enemies have equipped the Engineer class or anti-vehicle equipment. However, tanks can be dealt with rather swiftly as long as you have rockets or an AV mine in your inventory.
Regardless of how you choose to interact with tanks in Redsec, they are not...
A datamine has revealed when players will be able to use World of Warcraft's full suite of player-housing systems, giving an indication of when the MMORPG's next expansion will launch in full.
As datamined by Wowhead, the Midnight pre-patch, which will introduce class changes and new systems (though not the actual new zones, dungeons, or other expansion content) looks to be coming on or around January 27, 2026. The datamined splash screen for the patch points out Neighborhoods, the...
Amazon disclosed a number of layoffs in its gaming division earlier this week, and now those cuts are apparently affecting the team behind New World: Aeternum. Following the recently released Season 10: Nighthaven update, there will be no more new content released for New World: Aeternum.
The announcement was shared on the game's official site by developer Amazon Games Orange County. This doesn't mean that the game is going offline yet, and the devs indicated it will remain online through...
Hobbyist game developers and tinkerers who love the original Game Boy have a cool new book to pore over. Game Boy Coding Adventure is the latest release from No Starch Press, a publisher specializing in how-to books about computing and gaming. This massive, 456-page book teaches you how to make Game Boy games, but not with popular modern tools like GB Studio; this is a walkthrough for coding games and hardware functions in assembly, just like developers in the early '90s.

Earlier this year, Halo Studios and Microsoft did a very rare thing in the video game industry by providing permission for a fan-made Halo-inspired game, Spartan Survivors, to go forward. Now, Spartan Survivors has made the leap to Steam, as shared in an announcement by developer Bathrobe.
Spartan Survivors is free on Steam, and that was one of the conditions that was placed on the project when Halo Studios signed off on it. One of the other requests was a legal disclaimer on the game's...
Are you scratching your head because you can't seem to unlock more weapon slots in The Outer Worlds 2? It's not just weapons, mind you. The types of grenades and medical inhalers that you can equip at any given time tend to be very limited as well.

There are a couple of ways to unlock additional item slots in the game:
One option is to socket mods that grant an extra slot. Note that this effect remains active as long as you have that gear...
