AMD is officially bringing FSR 4.1 to more hardware, including XBOX.

AMD's FSR 4.1 upscaling technology has, at least so far, been limited to the Radeon 7000 and 9000 graphics cards. In a new announcement made earlier today, AMD said it is bringing FSR 4.1 upscaling to Radeon RX 6000-series graphics cards, some handhelds like the XBOX Ally, and the XBOX Series X|S.

Introducing Achievement Sets.

This week, Valve revealed a new look and fresh features for Steam Achievements. A new update, currently available as a beta, basically overhauls Steam's Achievement platform while also adding something called Achievement Sets.

Yesterday, we shared a story about how Epic Games developers are being forced to use AI across all areas of game development. Under this new initiative at Epic, actual developers will do nothing beyond overseeing the code that Claude spits out.
