Valve has stayed silent since New York Attorney General Letitia James brought a lawsuit against the company at the end of February, claiming its loot box mechanics allow "children and adults to illegally gamble for the chance to win valuable virtual prizes." But today, the company finally broke its silence, publicly addressing the lawsuit via a lengthy post on Steam.

"You may have seen the New York Attorney General recently filed a lawsuit against Valve claiming mystery boxes (like crates, cases, and chests) in some of our games violate New York gambling laws," Valve wrote in the post, which was aimed at players of Dota 2, Counter-Strike 2, and Team Fortress 2. "We don't believe that they do, and were disappointed to see the NYAG make that claim after working to educate them about our virtual items and mystery boxes since they first reached out to us in early 2023. We rarely talk about litigation, but we felt we should explain the situation to you."

Valve says it has explained to the New York Attorney General that loot boxes are widely used in gaming, and compared its loot boxes to collectible baseball cards, Labubu blind boxes, and Pokemon trading card packs. It also noted that players don't have to open loot boxes to play Valve games.

A new Fallout game, which might have been in development at a Microsoft-owned studio, is not likely to release anymore, according to former GameSpot and Giant Bomb journalist Jeff Gerstmann.

Gerstmann commented on the Fallout game during an episode of The Jeff Gerstmann Show, saying that he was aware of a new Fallout project in development that he thinks is unlikely to ever be released. "There was a Fallout thing in development at another Microsoft-owned studio that I think is no longer going to see the light of day," Gerstmann stated.

The size, scope, and general direction of this Fallout game was not disclosed, so it's difficult to gauge whether Gerstmann was aware of a sequel to Fallout 4 or a smaller project such as Fallout Shelter. Regardless, whatever project is being spoken about here hasn't been officially announced by Bethesda, which have yet to formally reveal a new project in the franchise since Microsoft's acquisition and the release of Fallout on Amazon Prime.

Season 2 Reloaded is live in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, bringing the brand-new Paradox Junction map to Zombies mode. This is a traditional round-based map set on Treyarch's iconic Nuketown map. In this guide, we'll explain how to use the truck keys, move the destroyed truck, and disrupt the temporal storm to reach the Pack-a-Punch machine on Paradox Junction.

Normally, Black Ops 7's Zombies maps hold your hand and guide you through unlocking the first few quest steps and reaching the Pack-a-Punch machine. This guidance works differently for Paradox Junction, as the quest markers seemingly disappear and leave you with a task you can't complete.

Paradox Junction's first objective marker leads you through a door behind the yellow house, and it guides you to a dead body with a set of keys. Picking up the keys then tasks you with a new objective: Move the destroyed truck by jumping to the past.
