Former Xbox executive Peter Moore--who helped run Xbox during its earliest days--has come forward to say the console war between Microsoft and Sony was maybe "all my fault." Speaking to The Game Business, Moore said he might bear some of the responsibility for how heated things can get when fans of one piece of plastic argue with fans of another piece of plastic. To be sure, the console wars didn't begin with PlayStation vs. Xbox, as Nintendo and Sega had beef years before.

"Maybe it's all my fault, developing the console wars and getting in each other's faces," he said.

Moore specifically help orchestrate the so-called "console war" based in part on learnings from when he worked at the shoe company Reebok. He said when he was competing with the likes of Nike, Adidas, and Puma, the idea was to "create this sense of competition."

Diablo 4's upcoming Lord of Hatred expansion is making yet another big change to the ARPG's difficulty system, this time increasing the number of Torment tiers from four to 12.

Blizzard revealed the news as part of an interview with ARPG content creator Wudijo. In the interview, associate game director Zaven Haroutunian said the eight additional Torment tiers are an attempt to keep the world and enemies relevant as players grow stronger. The increased rewards from higher tiers is one reason why the expansion is adding a loot filter, Haroutunian said.

Design director of systems Colin Finer told PC Gamer in a separate interview that 12 Torment tiers makes the increased rewards for each tier "more granular." However, while Torment will go all the way up to 12, most players aren't intended to ever reach that point. The game's highest difficulty will instead be aspirational, with game designer Aislyn Hall stating Torment 12 is going to be "really f****** hard."

Arvore and Sony Pictures Virtual Reality have released a new trailer for The Boys: Trigger Warning, offering a first look at VR gameplay and confirming that it'll release later this month.

The Boys: Trigger Warning lands on Meta Quest 3 on March 26, about two weeks before the fifth and final season of the Prime Video TV show begins on April 8. A PlayStation VR2 port is also in development, but does not yet have a release date. The game follows a man named Lucas Costa who teams up with The Boys in order to rescue his daughter and get revenge on a group called The Armstrongs.

One of the more impressive-looking games of March 2026 is easily Crimson Desert, as the open-world fantasy game looks rich with bandits, brigands, and beasts to conquer across the beautiful--yet brutal--continent of Pywel. Is your PC up to the challenge of rendering all those pixels and just how well will it run on console? Developer Pearl Abyss has released official PC requirements and the targeted performance levels for consoles for the game, which runs on the studio's proprietary BlackSpace Engine.

The PC requirements aren't too demanding if you're aiming for a 1080p experience at 60 FPS, but once you start looking to push the visuals up to the sweet spot of 1440p or beyond, that's when you'll need to start investing in some expensive PC hardware. No matter which performance level you target, the game will require you to have at least 16GB of RAM and an SSD with 150GB of storage capacity available.

Over on consoles, the performance targets from Pearl Abyss detail the resolutions and frame rates Xbox and PlayStation players can expect on their systems. With the exception of the Xbox Series S, console users will have three modes to choose from: Performance, Balanced, and Quality. PS5 Pro owners can get an upscaled 4K resolution from the Performance and Balanced modes, while the Quality mode offers a native 4K at 30 FPS.

First announced in 2016, Jay And Silent Bob: Chronic Blunt Punch finally has a release date--and it's very soon. The game starring the legendary stoners will arrive on April 20, or 4/20 as it's known in stoner circles.

The beat 'em up hails from developers Interbang Entertainment and Digital Eclipse. The game will launch on April 20 for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.

Chronic Blunt Punch is a side-scrolling tag-team beat 'em up in which players control Jay and Silent Bob as they go on an adventure that takes them "to the gates of hell itself." The game bills itself as a love letter to classic beat 'em ups but with updated features and controls. "This isn't a typical button masher," the developer said.

Nintendo, Universal Pictures, and Illumination waited a long time to unveil Yoshi in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, and an even longer period before revealing that Donald Glover will lend his voice to the friendly dinosaur in the film. But apparently someone guessed that Glover was playing Yoshi all the way back in December 2024.

X user silversfan06--who posts as Silver the Hedgehog--shared a post that's now gone viral for its simple prediction: "Donald Glover as Yoshi."

No one is more surprised about the accuracy of that prediction than Silver, who responded to the now popular post with the following message: "I don't know, I just thought it was good casting." Silver has also shared a few humorous responses to calls for more predictions.

Legendary action movie star--and former California governator--Arnold Schwarzenegger has revealed that he's in talks to reprise several of his signature roles for new Conan the Barbarian, Predator, and Commando movies.

"They did an additional Predator, and the director [Dan Trachtenberg] has been doing a great job of that. Now, he wants me to be in the next Predator. We've talked about it," Schwarzenegger said at this year's Arnold Sports Festival (via Variety). "As a matter of fact, Fox Studios has kind of rediscovered Arnold. They've come to me and said, 'We want you to do Predator, we just got a script for you to do Commando 2.'"

Schwarzenegger also commented on the long-in-development King Conan, which will be helmed by Christopher McQuarrie, the director behind the last four Mission Impossible movies. "It's a great story where Conan was 40 years king [as] king and he gets complacent, and now he gets forced out of the kingdom, slowly," Schwarzenegger said (via THR). Then there's conflict, of course, and then he somehow comes back, and then there's all kinds of madness and violence and magic and creatures."
