After decimating countless industries with his ultra-aggressive and wide-ranging tariff plan, President Donald Trump's expensive duties have been ruled illegal by the now-majority conservative Supreme Court.

According to reports by AP and CNN, the Supreme Court decided 6-3 that Trump's sweeping tariffs exceeded the powers he has. The decision--which centered on the "reciprocal" tariffs he levied on nearly every other country--came from Chief Justice John Roberts, who wrote for the court that the Constitution "very clearly" gives Congress the power to impose taxes (and that does include tariffs, too).

“The Framers did not vest any part of the taxing power in the Executive Branch," Roberts wrote in the decision. "The president asserts the extraordinary power to unilaterally impose tariffs of unlimited amount, duration, and scope. In light of the breadth, history, and constitutional context of that asserted authority, he must identify clear congressional authorization to exercise it."

Indie publisher Finji says TikTok used generative AI to alter its ads without permission—including one that inserted a racist, sexualized stereotype of a character from Usual June. The studio, known for publishing titles like Night in the Woods and Tunic and developing Usual June and Overland, says the modified ads ran as if posted from its official account.

Finji CEO Rebekah Saltsman first raised the issue publicly, asking followers on Bluesky, "If you happen to see any Finji ads that look distinctly UN-Finji-like, send me a screencap."

Talking to IGN, Saltsman says that Finji has "AI turned all the way off" on its TikTok ad account. The team became aware of the issue only after users began commenting on its legitimate ads, questioning strange versions that didn't match the original video creatives. Viewers sent screenshots showing what appeared to be AI-generated variants. One image viewed by IGN shows an altered version of Usual June key art in which protagonist June is redrawn with exaggerated hips and thighs, a bikini bottom, and over-the-knee boots--imagery Saltsman says invokes a harmful stereotype.

Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has teased that multiple new Far Cry and Assassin's Creed games are on the way following the company's recent restructuring.

Guillemot was interviewed by Variety and asked about the future of franchises like Assassin's Creed and Far Cry now that they're under Vantage Studios, a Creative House Tencent is also invested in.

"Under the Assassin’s Creed brand, several titles are in development, spanning both single-player and multiplayer experiences, with the ambition to further grow a community that exceeded 30 million players last year," Guillemot teased in response. "On Far Cry, anticipation is high, and we currently have two very promising projects in development."

Battlefield 6 producer Alexia Christofi has reacted to the conversation surrounding the game's new map releases, saying she understands people want more maps, and to have them arrive more frequently, but that is not going to happen. The studio is focusing on releasing high-quality maps, and that takes time.

"We're releasing on a cadence where we feel the maps are up to quality and we're happy with how they play, the variety they give to the players," she told GamesBeat (via GamesRadar). "There are worlds in which we release hundreds of maps, but they're not fun. We never want to do that. We have to make sure that the maps feel good to play, that they're fun to play."

Battlefield Studios has pledged to release two new Battlefield 6 maps per season. This is a slower pace than that of Battlefield 4, a game that the studio took inspiration from for Battlefield 6. Taking inspiration from that game never meant that Battlefield Studios was going to copy its cadence for new maps in Battlefield 6, though.

With physical copies of Resident Evil Requiem out in the wild, leaks for the game's story and its ending have inevitably appeared online. If you're looking to avoid spoilers, now might be a good time to stay far away from YouTube, Reddit, and any comments sections, as details on Requiem's story begin to flood in. Capcom is making an effort to address any of these leaks ahead of the game's launch next week, by appealing to players to help preserve the day-one experience--and if that doesn't work, Capcom's legal team is on the case.

"Please don't post or share pre-release leaks and spoilers for Resident Evil Requiem," Capcom's statement reads. "We really want everyone to enjoy the game's story and experience as much as possible. Our legal department will continue to issue takedowns and deletion notices for leaks in order to preserve your day-one experience."

2026 marks a big year for Resident Evil, as the franchise celebrates its 30th anniversary. Resident Evil Requiem is the first new mainline entry in the series since 2021's Resident Evil Village, and later this year, the Zach Cregger-directed Resident Evil movie lands in theaters.

A BioShock movie is happening now at Netflix, and it's apparently planned to coincide with the release of a new version of the game. That's according to producer Roy Lee, who said in an interview that Netflix and rights-owner Take-Two are "very anxious to see the movie come out" because the plan is for it to "coincide with some of the potential new incarnations of the game."

Lee did not name any specific games outright, but Take-Two recently reiterated that the long-in-development BioShock 4 will see the light of day ... some day. A remake of the original BioShock was reportedly in development, but was canceled in 2025.

As for the BioShock movie, Lee told Collider the plan was to make it "a few years back," but director Francis Lawrence had a full plate with The Long Walk and The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping. That movie is set for release this December. Lee said Lawrence will be in post-production on that movie until "at least September," so it might still be some time before the BioShock movie gets made.
