Two characters from 'GTA 6' stand side by side against a sunset with palm trees in the background.

GTA 6 is without a doubt the most anticipated game of 2026 for many, but only PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S owners will be able to experience Rockstar Games' open-world title this November, as the game will not hit PC at the same time. Although many have long suspected this staggered release strategy is meant to get players to purchase multiple versions of the game, veteran GTA 5 producer John Ricchio (who worked at the studio from 2003 to 2014) confirmed there are other reasons behind this strategy, mostly technical. Speaking in an interview with Kiwi Talks, Ricchio emphasized […]

Ubisoft Barcelona Built Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced’s Acclaimed Underwater Levels, Then Got 51 Layoffs After 2 Million Sales

A character from Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag stands on a beach with a sword, facing other characters.

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced does a lot of things right, enhancing the visuals of the fourth entry in the series to new heights while introducing choice combat and parkour changes for a more engaging experience, and new content allowing players to delve deeper into Edward Kenway's story, which remains as engaging as it has always been. For some, myself included, one of the highlights of the experience is underwater exploration, which I feel is one of the best ever seen in video games to date. However, having created what's one of the best features of the game wasn't enough […]

The Witcher 1 Remake has been announced a while back, but nothing is known about the Unreal Engine 5 remake of the first entry in the series outside the fact that it is in development by Fool's Theory under the supervision of CD Projekt Red, and that some of the original's most controversial elements that haven't aged well will be changed. According to Artur Ganszyniec, lead story designer of the original, the biggest challenge the remake faces is fitting the open-world structure into the game's narrative pace, as just making the game's world bigger may not be the answer to […]
