All game delays have their silver linings, and it looks like Grand Theft Auto VI's might just be the fact that it's given a lot of players more time to experience GTA V.Earlier today, Rockstar parent company Take-Two Interactive held its quarterly investor presentation, during which it revealed that the critically-acclaimed action-adventure game has now reached 215 million copies sold. Back in February, that number--while still extremely high--was around 210 million. This means that in the last three months, the 12-year-old game has sold a staggering five million additional copies. To put that into perspective, Monster Hunter Wilds is currently 2025's best-selling game and sits at about 10 million units sold after being released back in February. Though GTA V still has quite a ways to go if it wants to take down the top two best-selling video games of all time, this is still an incredibly impressive feat.This investor presentation marks the first one held by Take-Two Interactive since Grand Theft Auto VI's delay. Despite this setback, the company repeatedly emphasized its upcoming slate of games for 2025--Borderlands 4 and Mafia: The Old Country being the most notable--and the gaming industry's projected growth.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Nearly three years ago, Netflix revealed plans to make a Gears of War movie based on the popular video game franchise. Now, the streamer is reportedly circling John Wick co-director David Leitch to bring Marcus Fenix and Delta Squad to live-action.According to The Hollywood Reporter, Leitch is currently in negotiations to helm Gears of War, but his deal hasn't been closed yet. Leitch is a former stuntman who wasn't credited for co-directing the original John Wick with Chad Stahelski. Since then, Leitch has established himself as a solo director with Deadpool 2, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, Atomic Blonde, Bullet Train, and The Fall Guy.Even if Leitch's contract with Netflix does eventually get signed, Gears of War seemingly won't be his next film. The director is reportedly preparing to shoot Amazon MGM Studio's heist thriller How to Rob a Bank, which has Nicholas Hoult and Anna Sawai attached to star in it.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

He even shared some MS Paint-like concept art for a "Fishing With Daddy Calgar minigame," which is apparently possible with Space Marine 2's new modding tools.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

How many seasons of Amazon's Fallout TV show will there be? The network hasn't said yet, but one of the show's actors, Aaron Moten (Maximus), has said he's been told it could be potentially six seasons.Speaking at Comic Con Liverpool, Moten said when he signed on to star on the show, he was told what "the end point" would be, and that hasn't changed. This would be a "Season 5, Season 6 type of end point," Moten said. "We've always known that we're going to take our time with the development of the characters," he explained (via TheGamer).It's not immediately clear if Moten is talking about the endpoint of Fallout in general or potentially for his character. In any event, it sounds like there could be a lot more Fallout coming. Nothing is ever guaranteed in Hollywood, though, so we'll have to wait and see how it all plays out.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Nintendo has released a short new video showcasing how mouse controls work on the home menu of Nintendo Switch 2.The video was initially posted on the Nintendo Today app on March 11. A message attached to the video on the app explains that players can place the attachment side of a Joy-Con 2 controller down on a flat surface (or your pants) while using the home menu to activate the mouse controls. After doing so, players can navigate the home screen on Switch 2 with a cursor and even use it in combination with a control stick to scroll through menus, although it'll be possible to instantly revert to normal controls by lifting the controller back up, just like how it works in Metroid Prime 4: Beyond.Stealth40K posted the video attached to the Nintendo Today message on X, which you can see below.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

After years of anticipation, Wizards of the Coast unveiled multiple cards from the Magic: The Gathering - Final Fantasy expansion set, which launches in store June 13, at PAX East. Among the cards was Sephiroth, Fabled Soldier // Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel, a double-faced card with new original artwork from Tetsuya Nomura, the creative director of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth at Square Enix. Nomura commented on the artwork he created for the card via social media, while also hinting that there may be more to the card than it seems.The card features adult Sephiroth on one side, and it flips over to show his final form, Safer Sephiroth. Nomura says that he specifically designed the art to match up vertically: "if you manage to get two of the same card and line them up, you'll see how the original illustration looked."Sephiroth, Fabled Soldier // Sephiroth, One-Winged AngelHowever, Nomura also commented that one of the halves may seem different to eagle-eyed FF7 fans. "There is also a reason that the design of Safer Sephiroth is different from the original game," Nomura said, "but I unfortunately can't share more about that."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

The upcoming remake of the beloved Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 is coming this summer, and it boasts a number of redone maps, new skate parks, and both new and returning skaters. However, developer Iron Galaxy is also changing THPS 4's original campaign structure to standardize it with THPS 3. This decision has been controversial among fans, but Iron Galaxy recently explained that its goal is to produce a pair of remakes as compatible with one another as possible.In a preview of the remakes published by Game Informer, Iron Galaxy explained that it views its role as making the most cohesive package it can. Because it is selling THPS 3 and 4 as a single bundle, it is attempting to create something as integrated as the acclaimed Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2, which was developed by Vicarious Visions back in 2020. Design manager Mike Rossi explained, "Our goal here is to make the ultimate package of 3 and 4. So ultimately, we felt that taking it into feeling more towards the 3 format, as opposed to what 4 did originally, was a better representation for a cohesive package that we were making."Notably, while the remakes will emphasize the timer-based format common to the first three Tony Hawk's Pro Skater games, both THPS 3 and 4 will have options to explore maps in free roam. As GameSpot reported back in March, the THPS 4 remake does away with the original campaign format of completing challenges at the player's choosing, but it will have Free Skate, Speed Run, and Single Session modes. You'll need to complete challenges within set time limits, as was standard in the first three games. Iron Galaxy appears to be letting players customize this timer in THPS 4 to complete things at their own pace, as reported by VGC.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

In the world of The Last of Us, people can become infected primarily by bites and cuts from other infected. In Episode 5, the showrunners finally introduced spores to the playing field, making it a lot easier for people to become infected.

It didn't even take a full week for Grand Theft Auto VI's second trailer to break 100 million views on YouTube. Though the video can be seen in other places as well (Rockstar Games confirmed just last week that the open-world title's trailer hit almost a half-billion views after just a day), this is still an extremely impressive accomplishment.Rockstar released the newest Grand Theft Auto VI trailer out of nowhere on May 6. The video confirmed that the game's story will focus on Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos, after the couple was seen a bit in the first trailer that debuted in late 2023. Another fascinating aspect of the second trailer is Rockstar noting that it was captured on PS5--as well as some PlayStation references.Days before the trailer dropped, Rockstar revealed that Grand Theft Auto VI would be delayed to May 26, 2026. Previously, the game was set to arrive this fall. However, there was always skepticism about that release window because Rockstar has a lengthy history of delays.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Luna Nights is quite different from traditional games in the franchise, however, as it’s a metroidvania. You’ll play as Sakuya Izayoi, who must work her way through a dangerous mansion, recovering lost powers as she attempts to escape and return home. The original release of Touhou Luna Nights is sitting with “Overwhelming Positive” reviews on Steam. Fans of metroidvanias will probably find it to be an excellent addition to their catalog. Part of what makes it so compelling is its time-warping mechanic, which can be used to solve challenging puzzles.Combat is quite exciting too, as you’ll use a “graze” system that gives your character additional benefits by narrowly escaping damage. And like any good metroidvania, you'll unlock a litany of useful skills as you work through its story. Give the game a look if you’re seeking a unique adventure to get you through the warm summer months.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com
