Naughty Dog boss Neil Druckmann has further discussed the company's upcoming new IP, Intergalatic: The Heretic Prophet, saying it offers the "deepest" gameplay for any game the studio has made so far. Druckmann also briefly discussed the backlash from some people to the game's unveiling.Speaking to Last Stand Media (via PC Gamer), Druckmann said he's "very, very excited" for Intergalactic, adding that "it's the deepest gameplay we've ever done." It's not exactly clear what he means by that, but we should find out in time. "I can't wait to show it off," Druckmann said.A scene from Intergalactic.The reveal trailer for Intergalactic showed main character Jordan A. Mun in a spaceship before she descended down onto a planet to fight a giant robot enemy with a red sword. The trailer cut out just as the action was set to begin, so we can only guess as to what happens next.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller $85 | Releases June 5 Preorder at Target In-store pickup at Best Buy Preorder at GameStop Sold out at Walmart Rather unsurprisingly, the Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller has been one of the most popular accessory add-ons for the upcoming console since preorders opened last month. Interest in Nintendo's newest conventional controller has caused multiple retailers to sell out ahead of launch. With two weeks remaining until the Switch 2 arrives, preorders for the Pro Controller are currently available at Target and GameStop.Depending on your location, you may be able to snag a preorder for in-store, launch-day pickup at Best Buy. The Switch 2 Pro Controller is fully sold out at Walmart, and it doesn't appear as if it will be restocked prior to the controller's (and console's) June 5 launch.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Ryu Ga Gotoku fans are a special type of fandom where almost everyone involved agrees on one thing: Yakuza 0 is the best starting point in the Like A Dragon/Yakuza series. It's rare that someone disagrees that Yakuza 0 is one of the best titles in the entire franchise and still one of the best games the studio has made. Even after eight mainline titles--Yakuza Kiwami through Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth--there is simply no game in the series that catches the same feel as Yakuza 0. Fans will even beg any of their friends, gamers or not, to play Yakuza 0 because it's really that wonderful.When Yakuza Kiwami was released on Nintendo Switch last fall, fans anticipated Yakuza 0 would finally make its way to the Nintendo platforms too. Although there were many technical issues with Kiwami running on an aged console, RGG fans will be happy to know Yakuza 0 Director's Cut on Nintendo Switch 2 runs smoother than a perfect score on "Friday Night" in the disco minigame.If you haven't checked out the Yakuza/Like A Dragon series yet, the Director's Cut is shaping up to be the best way to try it, as it takes place first in the story chronologically, and the new Nintendo Switch 2 version will have upgraded graphics and more features that are missing from the original.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

One of the most intriguing developments with Nintendo Switch 2 is that the Joy-Con 2 controllers have mouse-like functionality for certain games. That's been a long-requested feature, but players who love using mice appear to have that option on Switch 2 as well.During a demonstration for Nobunaga's Ambition: Awakening CE on Switch 2 (via Insider Gaming), producer Michi Ryu plugged a wired mouse into the console and began playing with it. He also noted that when the mouse is plugged in, it takes priority control away from the Joy-Con 2 controllers. Ryu used the mouse around the 10:53 mark in the video below. This doesn't necessarily mean that all Switch 2 games will be compatible with a standard mouse. It's also unclear if wireless mice are also usable on Switch 2. XCOM creator Julian Gollop recently suggested that Switch 2's mouse options may lead to more strategy games on the system.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

We're only a few weeks into Fortnite's Star Wars season, but since the season is only five weeks long, that means we're already getting close to the end. Once Star Wars season wraps up, things will be back to normal in Battle Royale and Zero Build--or maybe there's nothing normal at all about what's coming up next season.Right now we've got a lot more questions (about 7,000) than we do answers (about 0) regarding what's in store for the Fortnite island once all these Star Wars people leave, but let's go through the rumors and guesswork we've got so far.Table of Contents [hide]Is the upcoming Fortnite season Chapter 6 Season 3 or Chapter 6 Season 4?Is the upcoming Fortnite season Chapter 6 Season 3 or Chapter 6 Season 4?We don't have a confirmed answer for this question right now, but since the Star Wars season is designated in the game's metadata as Chapter 6 MS1 (mini-season 1), it stands to reason that next season will be called Season 3. It also implies, but does not confirm, plans for an additional mini-seasons in the future.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

There are two main types of Sims 4 players. There are the folks who are here for the simulation side of things, with all the fun drama that entails. And then there are those who are here to build dope houses. Regardless of which of those you are, there's one cheat that is absolutely essential (though it'll matter much more for the builders): bb.moveobjects.This cheat is among the most-used Sims 4 cheats aside from the ones that give you money. Once you've used it, it's not tough to understand why it's so beloved--the moveobjects cheat makes building a realistic house much easier, and generally allows you to play a lot more items than there would normally be room for. It's so fundamentally important that EA has actually incorporated certain aspects of the cheat into the base game. At this point, EA treats it more like a tool for advanced users than a real cheat.Table of Contents [hide]How to turn on bb.moveobjectsHow to turn on bb.moveobjectsTo activate this cheat, press ctrl+shift+C on PC, or hold down all four shoulder buttons if you're playing on a console, to bring up the command console at the top left of your screen, and then type "bb.moveobjects on". There is no need to activate cheats generally with the separate "testingcheats true" command or to do anything else. Moveobjects works by itself.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

There are a lot of different jobs to choose from in The Sims 4, including a pretty robust group of careers included with the base game and plenty more that have been added via DLC over the decade-plus that The Sims 4 has been out. What jobs you have your sims sign up for is totally up to you, but there are a lot of factors that can affect your performance, like whether your sim's skills are appropriate for the job you want. If you want your sims to be successful, some knowledge and effort are required--just like it is with a real job.While there are specific things you'll need to know about each individual career that can help you get ahead, there are also some universal tips that can help your sims climb their corporate ladders.Table of Contents [hide]General tips for any Sims 4 careerPick an active, self-employment, or rabbit hole jobGeneral tips for any Sims 4 careerPick an active, self-employment, or rabbit hole jobThere are three main types of careers in The Sims 4. Most of them are rabbit hole-type jobs, where your sims just go offscreen and do their thing without any meaningful input from the player. But there are also "active" careers, where you follow your sim to their place of business and you'll have to make them do various tasks (though you can also play these as rabbit hole jobs if you'd prefer), and self-employment and freelance careers where your sim will complete individual gigs from the comfort of their homes, like writing a book, painting a picture, or building furniture.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Tolkien Myths and Legends Hardcover Box Set (2025) $125 | Releases June 10 Preorder at Amazon The Great Tales of Middle-earth Hardcover Box Set (2025) $125 | Releases August 19 Preorder at Amazon See at Amazon (2018 set) J.R.R. Tolkien fans can soon add two display-worthy book box sets to their collection. Tolkien Myths and Legends Box Set, which features lesser-known original works and translations of classic English literature, releases on June 10. It will be followed up on August 19 by new editions of The Great Tales of Middle-earth, which is comprised of the final three prose novels set in Tolkien's iconic fantasy world. The new hardcover box sets feature lavish cover art and display cases. They are considered the fifth and sixth entries in a series of hardcover book box sets that debuted last year with the The History of Middle-earth, which was published by William Morrow in its entirety across four beautiful collections. Tolkien Myths and Legends Hardcover Box Set (2025) $125 | Releases June 10 The Tolkien Myths and Legends Box Set is a unique collection of J.R.R. Tolkien's work, because it doesn't contain stories about Middle-earth. Instead, as the title suggests, it compiles classic myths and legends, two of which were written by the author, while the other two were personal translations of some of his favorite works that inspired him.Like the vast majority of his posthumously published work, these were pieced together and edited by his son, Christopher Tolkien. Each hardcover book comes with a double-sided dust jacket. Just like The History of Middle-earth Box Sets, one side features elaborate artwork, while the other side has a more subdued aesthetic with solid colors. The four books come packaged in an eye-catching display case. Sir Gawain and the Green Knight / Orfeo / Pearl: Translations of a trio of classic epic poems juxtaposed with Tolkien's famous 1953 lecture on Sir Gawain.The Legend of Sigurd and Gudrún: An epic verse poem by Tolkien. It was inspired by classic poetry and Norse mythology. Along with Tolkien's composition, you'll find notes and commentary from Christopher Tolkien.The Fall of Arthur: A narrative poem written by Tolkien that chronicles King Arthur's final days. The book includes extensive notes made by Tolkien while drafting his only Arthurian legend. Fans of The Silmarillion will want to read this one, as it clearly inspired the plot of Tolkien's Arthurian-esque Middle-earth book.Beowulf: One of the most famous--and the oldest known---epic poem of Old English literature, Beowulf has received many translations. Tolkien wrote his translation in 1926 and then circled back later. In addition to the translation of the original poem, this book contains a plethora of commentary by Tolkien himself, which will give readers a glimpse into the mind of Tolkien the scholar.If you're interested in the Myths and Legends Box Set, you should also check out The Collected Poems of J.R.R. Tolkien, a massive three-volume hardcover box that released last fall. The gorgeous box set, which is on sale for nearly 50% off, compiles Tolkien's life's work as a poet and clocks in at over 1,700 pages. Preorder at Amazon The Great Tales of Middle-earth Hardcover Box Set (2025) $125 | Releases August 19 The Great Tales of Middle-earth is a must-read collection for all dedicated fans of The Lord of the Rings. Though understandably not nearly as well-known as The Hobbit, LOTR, or even The Silmarillion, the trio of novels in this set are the final pieces of prose fiction that take place across the author's iconic brilliant fantasy world. All of the stories take place during Middle-earth's First Age, so while written and published later than Tolkien's other books, these are the oldest full-length stories in Middle-earth.The new 2025 hardcover editions come with reversible dust jackets and feature special color plates, pencil drawings, and illustrated maps by Christopher Tolkien and beloved LOTR illustrator Alan Lee.Here are the three books you'll find in the beautiful display case, which features a fire-breathing dragon.The Children of Húrin (2007): Written after The Silmarillion as a standalone prequel story, The Children of Húrin takes place 6,000 years before the events of LOTR. The story follows the cursed son of Húrin, named Túrin, during an era of intense and constant war and widespread devastation caused by the Dark Lord Morgoth. If you've read The Silmarillion, you will recognize some of the names found in this novel.Beren and Lúthien (2017): Another very early tale set in Middle-earth, Beren and Lúthien was reworked and revised over time and eventually became part of The Silmarillion. This compilation of Lúthien and Beren's story was originally published in 2017. It shows the evolution of the love story between the mortal man Beren and immortal elf Lúthien.The Fall of Gondolin (2018): Founded by King Turgon, the eponymous city of elves was concealed for many years before Lord Morgoth's quest to destroy elven life across Middle-earth. The Fall of Gondolin's main protagonist is Túrin's cousin, Tuor, and his family. Tuor is married to Turgon's daughter, Idril. The story follows their attempt to save their child after the Gondolin (unsurprisingly) falls.It's worth noting that The Great Tales of Middle-earth is already available as a hardcover box set. While it won't match Myths and Legends or the four History of Middle-earth Box Sets, the 2018 hardcover collection is on sale for only $50 (was $100) at Amazon. Alternatively, you can purchase each book individually in hardcover or paperback.The Great Tales of Middle-earth Editions:The Great Tales of Middle-earth Hardcover Box Set (2018) (3 Books) -- $50 ($100)The Great Tales of Middle-earth Hardcover Box Set (2025) (3 Books) -- $125 | Releases August 19The Children of Hurin (Paperback) -- $10.70 ($19)The Children of Hurin (Hardcover) -- $14 ($35)Beren and Lúthien (Paperback) -- $13.69 ($19)Beren and Lúthien (Hardcover) -- $22.50 ($35)The Fall of Gondolin (Paperback) -- $11.69 ($19)The Fall of Gondolin (Hardcover) -- $14.41 ($35) Preorder at Amazon See at Amazon (2018 set) The Great Tales of Middle-earth Hardcover Box Set (2018) $50 (was $100) See at Amazon The History of Middle-earth Hardcover Box Sets (2024)J.R.R.

While creating his fantasy world, Tolkien took extensive notes, building a backstory for Middle-earth across three different ages and 6,500-plus years. You could argue that the author's dedication to crafting the setting that would become home to a pair of landmark fantasy novels turned Middle-earth into the most believable character Tolkien created. His mythopoeic writings formed what is commonly referred to as Tolkien's legendarium.At the time of Tolkien's death in 1973, the exhaustive backstory of Middle-earth remained unpublished. Over the next few years, his son and literary executor, Christopher Tolkien, undertook the daunting project of editing, expanding, and curating the legendarium into publishable works. The legendarium would become a 12-volume series titled The History of Middle-earth.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

AMD announced its latest graphics card, the Radeon RX 9060 X, at Computex 2025 earlier this week. This is the third GPU in AMD's 9000 series lineup that also includes the RX 9070 and 9070 XT, and its slated to launch June 5. While it's positioned as the entry-level option in the RX 9000 series, the RX 9060 XT runs on the same RNDA 4 architecture as the more powerful RX 9070 and 9070 XT and includes FSR 4 resolution upscaling and frame generation, as well as DisplayPort 2.1a and HDMI 2.1b support. AMD is producing two versions of the RX 9060 XT: one with 8GB VRAM and another with 16GB VRAM. Both models will feature 32 RDNA 4 CUs (computation units), up to 3.13GHz clock speed, and between 150W and 182W power draw, depending on the model's VRAM and clock speed. While those are solid specs for an entry-level card, things get a bit more confusing from there.Power and pricingAMD lists the MSRP as $300 for the 8GB model and $350 for the 16GB model. However, the company is not releasing RX 9060 XT reference cards itself. Instead, third-party manufacturers like Asus, Acer, Gigabyte, and others are launching their own versions of the RX 9060 XT starting June 5. As such, performance, power draw, and pricing will likely differ between the various RX 9060 XT models (especially for overclocked models), but at least some of these GPUs will stick to the reference clock speeds and therefore MSRP (assuming the ongoing tariffs do not impact those prices).Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

In case you missed it on the big screen, Until Dawn is now available to watch from the comfort of your own couch. You can rent or buy the digital release from Prime Video for $20-$25.

Along with native 4K resolution, Until Dawn will support Dolby Atmos audio on supported devices.Amazon and Walmart have the 4K Blu-ray combo pack priced at $50 at the moment. That said, we expect the price to drop prior to launch. Both retailers offer preorder price guarantees, so you'll be eligible for any future discounts from the moment you place your order until your Blu-ray ships.Until Dawn is also getting a DVD release, in case you want to experience the horror film in spine-tingling 480p resolution.

See at Amazon In case you missed it, Until Dawn tells an original story and is set within the same universe as the game. Connecting the video game and the film is Stormare's character, Dr. Hill, who appeared in both mediums. Another nod to the game is that the movie has the same tone and vibe, as the main characters find themselves caught in a time-loop where they frequently die due to a variety of grisly means. The only way to break this vicious cycle is to survive…until dawn. The film has received mixed reviews, but if you're in the mood for a cheesy horror-comedy with slick direction, Until Dawn is an enjoyable watch.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Gone are the days where a new console generation is expected to bring a game-changing amount of new technical capabilities, according to Akio Sakamoto, chief technical officer at Kojima Productions. The developer said the difference between the PS4 and PS5 "isn't so great" but at least makes development "more efficient."In an interview with Edge Magazine about Death Stranding 2: On The Beach, which will be released on PS5 in June, Sakamoto compared the experience of developing for the two latest PlayStation generations. Where current-generation consoles used to bring major upgrades--just look at the difference between the original PlayStation and the PS2--the latest generational upgrade doesn't have as much impact on what developers can achieve. "The most obvious improvement from a technological point of view is the reduction in loading times, but to be honest, the difference between the two hardware systems isn't so great," Sakamoto says. "It's more a case that on PS5 there are more efficient ways of arriving at similar goals."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Helldivers 2 player numbers are looking pretty healthy following the release of its latest update, Heart of Democracy, reaching peaks the game hasn't seen since its initial post-release rush. Despite a rocky first year of release, the higher player numbers show Arrowhead's efforts to turn the game around are working.Helldivers 2's creative director Johan Pilestedt posted a screenshot to X showing almost 198,000 concurrent players online, calling it potentially "the largest simultaneous return of players for Helldivers," adding that the "team did a MEGA job on the update!" He later added that there are "around 2.5 million Helldivers playing the game every week," and anticipated seeing more players join following the most recent update. Since then, Arrowhead Game Studios has worked hard to improve the game and regain player trust, with CEO Shams Jorjani acknowledging how the swing from "it's so over" to "we're so back" had become a meme among the game's fanbase. In less than a year, Helldivers 2 managed to recover from review bombing to return to a "very positive" review rating on Steam, and now that is starting to be reflected in the game's player numbers.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Developer DICE has now announced an invite-only pre-alpha test which begins on May 23 and lasts for just 72 hours.In a post on the BattlefieldComm X page, the developer writes, "As part of our ongoing efforts to test the future of Battlefield, starting May 23, we will run a one-time 72-hour Pre-Alpha Server Performance Test in Europe, North America, and select areas of Asia."The developer explains the playtest's purpose is to "verify server performance and stability with increased player counts" during the weekend's testing period.
