Over a month of beta testing later, the update is ready for prime time.
In late April, Valve pushed out a beta update for the Steam client. This update was far more extensive than mere bug fixes or tiny tweaks here and there. This update has just left beta and is out for everyone using Steam.
First and foremost, Steam is now using a new and updated framework. A lot of this won't be visible to the end user, but it allows Valve to more easily share code between the desktop...

Cary Elwes and Christopher Lloyd Join Idris Elba in Sonic Spinoff Series
The Knuckles series is getting even more substantial star power.
Paramount+ and Sega are really going whole (hedge)hog on the casting for its upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog spinoff series, Knuckles. We already know that Idris Elba is voicing Knuckles, just as he did for Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
Now, we're hearing that Cary Elwes (Saw, The Princess Bride, Robin Hood: Men in Tights) and Christopher Lloyd (Back to the Future, The Addams Family, Who Framed Roger Rabbit) are joining... -

Rockstar Locks Several Cars Behind Paywall, Removes Dozens More from GTA Online
A new update with new problems? Shocking.
On June 13th, Rockstar Games released a new update for GTA Online called San Andreas Mercenaries. This free content drop adds in new missions and a decent amount of quality-of-life improvements for all GTA Online players.
This update also just happened to remove over 180 cars and motorcycles from the in-game storefronts. As Kotaku reports, several of these cut cars have been placed behind the GTA+ paywall. GTA+ being a $6 per month... -

Three Overwatch 2 Story Missions to Cost $15
Overwatch 2: Invasion is the start of the story content for Overwatch 2, but it comes with a price.
The PvE story content for Overwatch 2 was always going to have some charge associated with it. The plan was to have the PvE content cost a base fee for a full story campaign while the multiplayer remained free. "Free" if you ignore the cosmetic microtransactions, of course.
Then came the news that Blizzard scrapped their PvE Hero content for Overwatch 2. At least,... -

Metal: Hellsinger's New DLC Pack is Decidedly Not Very Metal
Nothing says metal quite like Paramore's Misery Business.
Metal: Hellsinger is a rhythm game where you slay demons of hell to the beat of some pulse-pounding heavy metal songs. Right? Right. It featured artists like Serj Tankian from System of a Down, Tatiana Shmayluk from Jinjer, Matt Heafy from Trivium, and many more heavy metal heavy hitters. The songs they all performed were written for and created specifically for Metal: Hellsinger.

After Mass Layoffs in March Gamurs Looks to Hire Editor to Create 250 AI Generated Articles per Week
The dumbest timeline keeps on getting more and more idiotic.
Gamurs, the organization that owns several publications, just shared that they are now hiring for an AI Editor.
Gamurs owns and runs the following websites: Attack of the Fanboy, The Escapist, Dot Esports, Prima Games, Upcomer, Gampur, GameSkinny, GamerJournalist, Destructoid, Twinfinite, and Siliconera. They also laid off dozens of staff, writers and editors, across most all of their publications back in March... -

Meaty Final Fantasy 16 Demo Available on PS5
Progress will carry over to the full game.
Square Enix released a demo for Final Fantasy 16, their upcoming action-RPG. This demo, playable right now on PlayStation 5, will let you play through some rather meaty chunks of the game. There is the opening prologue sequence and a separate action focused mission.
The prologue segment is heavy on the story, which is probably to be expected. It's a couple of hours in length and will let you carry over your progress to the full... -

High on Knife Announced by Squanch Games
This newly announced DLC is high on new content and low on Justin Roiland.
Squanch Games just announced the first DLC for High on Life. This new DLC, aptly named High on Knife will give Knifey a chance to stab until he can stab no more.
If you recall, we gave the base game of High on Life some rather high praise in our review. It ended up being quite the surprise hit, ending up as a top seller on Steam and apparently the biggest third-party and single-player Game Pass... -

Capcom Showcase Recap - Dragon's Dogma 2, Exoprimal, Pragmata
The Capcom showcase was... interesting.
Yesterday, Capcom held their Capcom Showcase. Running at a bit over half an hour, the show included quick hits of news for a few existing and upcoming titles. It even included an indefinitely delay announcement for Pragmata, a game that was first announced in 2020 and has been delayed several times already. As with these other recap posts, I'll be sure to put up separate news posts about some of these titles if there is something worth posting. Fo... -

Diablo 4 Surpasses $666 Million in Five Days
Oh come on.
Blizzard just revealed that Diablo 4 had the best selling launch in the history of the studio. We already knew that Diablo 4 had the biggest launch day sales for Blizzard, but that momentum just kept on going.
Blizzard now says that in the first five days following the game's June 6th launch, Diablo 4 has surpassed $666 million (USD) in global sales. The actual figure was not provided. It could be that Diablo 4 sold $3 billion worth of Diablo 4 but that "666"... -

Payday 3 Dated for September Release
The crew is getting back together.
Payday 3 is another title that was shown off over the weekend at one of the various shows that took place. I cannot remember exactly which one because they have all blurred together in my mind at this point. Oh wait, the press release says it showed up at the Xbox Games Showcase, so there we go.
Anyway, Payday 3 is taking players to New York City. It is on the streets of the Big Apple that the Payday gang of Dallas, Hoxton, Wolf, and Chains... -

Redfall Receives First Major Update Ever
A month and ten days after release....
The first major update for Redfall just dropped today. This update from developer Arkane Austin brings the game up to version 1.1 and introduces several fixes for the otherwise super busted game.
Today's first real update comes alongside a brief statement from Arkane Austin, though it's a statement that comes a bit short of being an apology letter to the disappointed fans. They say that they still have work to do and "plan to... -
