Grand Theft Auto 6 doesn't arrive until this November, but Jogo Games has announced a GTA-like game that you can play very soon in Fortnite. The game is obviously riffing on GTA 6, as evidenced by the key art showing two characters sitting on a car like the official GTA 6 art depicting Jason and Lucia.

Grand Heist City, as it's called, launches on March 14. Andre "Typical Gamer" Rebelo's Jogo Games developed the game with the Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN). He told Variety that Grand Heist City is his "most ambitious" game so far, featuring what he says is the "chaotic energy" of GTA. The game will allow players to explore an open map and do whatever they want, while they can also take on missions and heists. There is multiplayer support as well.

Grand Heist City was funded in part by an Epic Mega Grant. The cinematic announcement trailer (see below) is full of GTA-inspired action, including car chases and explosions. We haven't seen any actual gameplay yet, however.

Fate and destiny are prominent themes throughout the twisting, time-hopping story of Legacy of Kain. And in that sense, it felt like protagonists Raziel and Kain were destined to remain absent from our lives forever--it's been 22 years since the release of the last game in the series, after all. It feels weird, then, to be able to say that a brand-new game in the vampiric series is coming out later this month, with Legacy of Kain: Ascendance launching on March 31. A small-scale side-scrolling platform-action game might not be what we were all expecting, but it's something.

Before then, however, Crystal Dynamics has teamed up with PlayEveryWare to remaster 2003's Legacy of Kain: Defiance. After making Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1&2 Remastered, tackling Defiance was the logical next step, as it serves as the climactic final chapter in Raziel and Kain's theatrical tale, catching people up on what is going on in time for the release of Ascendance. And while this is a fantastic remaster, the flaws of the original game still shine through.

Defiance might be the third entry in the Soul Reaver story, but it's also the first and only game in the series to feature both Legacy of Kain protagonists as playable characters. From one level to the next, the perspective shifts between the despotic vampire lord Kain, and his former lieutenant turned vengeful wraith, Raziel. The story picks up right where Soul Reaver 2 left off, sending both characters hurtling into the past following a time paradox that altered Nosgoth's history for the worse.

South of Midnight will be the latest Xbox game to come to a rival system when it lands on PS5 and Switch 2 on March 31. The release date was confirmed today, following the previous announcement that South of Midnight was headed to PS5 and Switch 2 in Spring 2026.

Developed by the Microsoft-owned Compulsion Games, South of Midnight launched in April 2025 for PC and Xbox Series X|S. The game is set in the American Deep South and follows the character Hazel, who, along with her mother, is preparing for a huge hurricane.

Numerous other Xbox games have landed on rival platforms before this, and one of the next big ones is Halo: Campaign Evolved later this year. It will mark the mainline Halo franchise's debut on a platform other than Xbox or PC.

World of Warcraft's new Midnight expansion is in full swing along with its long-awaited player-housing system, and it didn't take long for Blizzard to begin selling some pricey microtransactions related to the feature.

It was just a few weeks ago that the only decor available for purchase using WoW's new Hearthsteel premium currency were two plushies for 100 Hearthsteel (or roughly $1) each. Flash forward to now, and there's a number of new decor items available on the shop, including two $25 item bundles that have raised some eyebrows. The new decor items even got their own trailer.

The limited-time bundles available until April 23 include a variety of spring-themed and garden-decor items, all of which can also be purchased separately. Some of those items, like the Spring Blossom Tree, are giving players some serious sticker shock.

Earlier this week, Microsoft announced its next Xbox, which is codenamed Project Helix. Aside from its ability to play Xbox and PC games, there haven't been many details released about it. But according to analyst and Kantan Games founder Dr. Serkan Toto, the price for Project Helix could be $900 or even higher.

"The PS5 Pro is $750 in the US, while the Xbox Series X with 2TB is [$800]," Toto told GamesRadar. "There is absolutely no reason to expect Project Helix to be cheaper, so a base model could be priced at $900 and a more premium version at even more than that."

Toto believes that the RAM crisis could be over by the time Project Helix is put into production, but he added that "fans should brace for an expensive machine in any case."

Last month, the United States Supreme Court declared President Trump's tariffs levied under the IEEPA to be illegal. By that point, billions of dollars in now-illegal tariffs had already been collected, leaving the question open as to what will happen to those funds. Several companies have already sued the US government to recoup their tariff costs, and now Nintendo is joining them, as reported by Aftermath.

In the court filing, Nintendo requests a full tariff refund in no uncertain terms. "Plaintiff requests that, consistent with the Supreme Court’s ruling in Learning Resources and the Federal Circuit’s and this Court’s rulings in V.O.S. Selections, this Court order the prompt refund, with interest, of any IEEPA duties paid by Plaintiff regardless of liquidation status, and provide any and all remedies that the Court deems appropriate," states the document.

The lawsuit is being filed in the United States Court of International Trade and names numerous government figures and agencies as defendants. The full list is as follows: The US Department of Homeland Security and recently fired Secretary Kirsti Noem; the Office of the United States Trade Representative and its US trade representative Jamieson Greer; the US Customs and Border Protection and protection commissioner Rodney Scott; and finally, the US Department of Commerce and the secretary of commerce, Howard Lutnick.

Nestled in a cabinet deep inside Resident Evil Requiem’s ruined Raccoon City Police Department lies an off-brand console, approximating the original PlayStation or Sega Saturn. Studious players can find this knockoff system surrounded by all manner of Capcom games from the era, like Mega Man 8 and Street Fighter 2 Alpha. Capcom games often reference each other--look at any Dead Rising--but Requiem goes one step further by stashing a copy of the original Resident Evil inside this electronics-filled coffin. This small inclusion turns a silly Easter egg into an immersion-breaking one and acts as a fitting microcosm for Requiem’s bigger problem: it's distractingly obsessed with its past.

The hyperfixation on nostalgia is pernicious, though, and doesn’t fully take hold until the latter half of the game. The links up until then are somewhat tenuous, but still present. Requiem's new character, Grace Ashcroft, isn’t allowed to be completely new--she has to have a connection to an old game, as the daughter of Resident Evil Outbreak’s Alyssa Ashcroft. Its beginning mostly introduces new threads and faces, but Grace isn’t even allowed to carry the game by herself--the way her predecessor, Ethan Winters, does--as she’s joined by series pretty boy Leon S. Kennedy.

Resident Evil games usually have multiple playable characters and those often, at least partially, pull from a recognizable roster. Leon's inclusion isn't automatically a red flag. But once the story starts unfolding, it’s hard not to see Leon’s heavy involvement as a lack of confidence in Grace’s ability to carry the game, and a semi-cowardly way to appeal to fans. A charitable read is difficult to sustain, since this wave of callbacks kicks into overdrive once players don the zombie ass-kicker’s curtain haircut in Requiem's latter half. Leon is the conduit to nostalgia in this portion of the game.

Fortnite's collaboration with Cyberpunk 2077 is getting a new wave of cosmetics--or at least that's what the Epic Games Store seems to be teasing with a cryptic five-second video it posted on Twitter Friday morning.

Good morning, Night City! We've got a surprise for you... pic.twitter.com/L40iI56Amx

— Epic Games Store (@EpicGames) March 6, 2026

Not a lot of clues in there, but it could be that the Cyberpunk 2077 account is hinting at something specific in its quote tweet, which promised "New Cyberpunk 2077 locker content smashing into @Fortnite soon!" Could this refer to the beefy baddie Adam Smasher?

Fortnite x Cyberpunk 2077 currently consists of skins for Johnny Silverhand, female-presenting V, and the Quadra Turbo-R car, along with a pile of accessories like Johnny's guitar. There are any number of other character or car skins that Fortnite could add--there are plenty of Cyberpunk cars that are way cooler than the Turbo-R, and the cast of the game is enormous.

The recent announcement that Slay the Spire 2 would include four-player co-op support came as quite a surprise to me. This style of roguelike deckbuilder is not known for multiplayer, and with few details shared about it and its reveal seemingly not being positioned as a big deal, I really didn't know what to expect. In spending several hours across a few runs, however, it's clear that co-op is the selling point for Slay the Spire 2, and a fantastic example of how small details can really make a difference.

Co-op in Slay the Spire allows 2-4 players to take on the game's typical roguelike runs. If you jump straight into it with other players before taking on any solo content, the mechanics are a bit confusing: You're all playing the same character, with the same basic deck, the same relics available to you, and so on. Are we sharing a deck? Are potions or gold shared?

It takes a little time to figure out that, while you're all simultaneously participating in the same combat and events, the choices you make and everything you gain belongs to each player individually. The only thing shared, really, is that you're following the same path across the map and benefiting (or being hurt by) the same buffs and debuffs on the enemies you're facing.

The artist who alleged that Bungie used their work without permission for Marathon and later settled the matter with the developer is featured in the newly launched game's credits.

The name of the artist, Fern Hook AKA Antireal, can be seen in the game's credits, listed as a Visual Design Consultant, according to the game's credits posted on Reddit.

In May 2025, Antireal alleged that the Marathon alpha featured assets lifted from their own designs that were published in 2017. At the time, the artist said they didn't have the resources or the energy to pursue a legal case against Bungie. In response, Bungie said it "immediately investigated" the matter, going on to pin the blame on a former Bungie artist.

In the same year that Sony launched the PlayStation 5, the console maker also began moving away from keeping its exclusive games on its own hardware. Horizon Zero Dawn, which had launched on the PlayStation 4 just three years prior, became the first big Sony-published game to launch on the PC, marking a shift in strategy as Sony attempted to find a larger audience in the same way that Microsoft had been doing for some time. It's a bet that led to one of Sony's most-notable acquisitions just a year later, with the company purchasing renowned porting studio Nixxes to support its PC efforts going forward. But just five years later, Sony is reportedly taking a step back from this strategy, which leaves one of the best studios in the industry in a precarious position.

Prior to its acquisition, Nixxes made a name for itself by supporting Square Enix-published titles, primarily working with studios such as Eidos Montreal and Crystal Dynamics. Nixxes, which has been doing porting work since its founding in 2000, was behind the exceptionally well-optimized and feature-rich ports of Rise of the Tomb Raider, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, and more. It had, in fact, been doing a lot of this work for a long time, but it was around this time that the studio gained a more well-known reputation for creating exceptional PC ports, something which you couldn't take for granted then like you generally can today.

It's this reputation that likely attracted Sony, which initially tasked Nixxes with assisting Guerrilla Games on patching Horizon Zero Dawn shortly after it launched on PC. It was a disappointing launch, with various performance issues and bugs showing how Guerrilla, and perhaps Sony by extension, underestimated the complexity of a port. Nixxes not only helped stabilize it, but clearly showcased how skilled it was at this exact type of work, which more than likely made it an easy choice for Sony to purchase it a year later.

Don't call it a comeback just yet, but it appears that developer Blue Box Game Studios' PS5-exclusive, first-person horror shooter Abandoned may not have been abandoned after all, according to a post on ResetEra.

Sleuths on the gaming forum ResetEra discovered on March 5 that Blue Box Game Studios' director, Hasan Kahraman, has a new game connected to his PlayStation account. The game is titled Abandoned: Gospels of Blood, suggesting that Kahraman may be attempting to resurrect a version of the once-maligned PS5 project. That's it, though. There's no trailer, no demo, no release date--nothing at all. So, to understand the significance of this insignificant update, we have to go back to 2021.

A Trip Down (Abandoned) Memory Lane

Back in April 2021, developer Hasan Kahraman and his team at Blue Box Game Studios pulled back the curtain on Abandoned. Revealing it on the PlayStation Blog, the game was described as a "cinematic, first-person horror survival-shooter" with photorealistic graphics and a highly detailed, open-world environment. It looked creepy yet stunning, but it also kind of resembled a Silent Hill game. Or, at least, that was the theory after the project was unveiled, with netizens linking Abandoned to the iconic survival-horror series and assuming Kahraman was a stand-in for gaming auteur Hideo Kojima. (The two do share similar initials, after all, though Kojima has since denied being involved with Abandoned in any capacity.)

Someone at Teyon apparently made a very big mistake today, as Steam players who purchased RoboCop: Rogue City - Unfinished Business found their game completely erased and replaced by a different title that wasn't formally announced.

A user on X who goes by Silent was the first to notice that Unfinished Business was swapped out for Hunter: The Reckoning, a project that appears to be based on a spin-off from the World of Darkness tabletop RPGs.

Title screen says Hunter: The Reckoning, but the actual games under that title are by another developer and are 2D text based, unlike whatever this is. Doesn't look very hunter-like either so I doubt this is their Hunting Simulator 3. (Screenshots by @jas0n_098) pic.twitter.com/sikon1Mfvc

— Edness (@EdnessTweets) March 6, 2026

As noted in a later post from Edness, the build in question is dated May 20, 2025, and it appears to be very early in its development and far from finished. The Hunter: The Reckoning files were subsequently pulled from Steam and replaced with the originally intended update for Unfinished Business. It's unknown if Hunter: The Reckoning progressed beyond this build or if it will ever come out. There were three Hunter: The Reckoning video games released between 2002-2003, but none since.

Pokemon Pokopia is a cozy sim filled with Pokemon and adventure. One of the early items in the game will help you search buried treasure for rarer items, but it's not very clear how to use it. In this guide, we'll explain how to get the Dowsing Machine and find fossils in Pokemon Pokopia.

How to find Fossils

Fossils are found by searching Buried Treasure blocks. These are the blocks with the golden light shining out of it, and it requires the use of your Rock Smash ability. Of course, Buried Treasure blocks don't guarantee you'll find a fossil. It might be some other rare item like a Human Relic or CD.

It's also worth noting that these Buried Treasure blocks are random and will be reset each day at the daily reset time.

Capcom just released a patch for Resident Evil Requiem that includes a number of fixes, squashing bugs and improving performance on both console and PC. The patch was released alongside an announcement revealing Capcom has plans to implement improvements to DualSense controller support on PC, though there's no word yet on when exactly that will happen.

"A new patch is out now for Resident Evil Requiem, including fixes for some known issues," the publisher shared in a recent post on X. "We've also heard your feedback and are working on adding support for the DualSense wireless controller adaptive trigger and vibration functions for the PC version of the game. This will take some time, but we appreciate your patience."

There's no telling exactly how much time it will take for Capcom to improve the DualSense experience on PC. But in the meantime, PC players can improve their gameplay experience with some of the hilarious mods recently released for Resident Evil Requiem, including one that gives Leon a Burt Reynolds-esque moustache.
