Gears Of War Creator Lays Out Vision For A New Game, And It Sounds Intriguing

Game News - Mon, 05/11/2026 - 21:41

Gears of War creator Cliff Bleszinski has laid out a vision for a new game that he says is essentially "John Wick meets Carrie by way of Lovecraft Country."

Posting online, the retired game developer said he still wants to make this game, which he is calling "Hollow Point." The game would take place in a "rustic New England town" during the fall, and that's familiar ground for Bleszinski as he was born and raised in the area.

Hollow Point would be a two-player game. Player 1 would be an ex-Marine "with all the guns/boom stuff," while Player 2 would be a young woman with psychic/telekinesis powers.

Forza Horizon 6 Suffers Massive Leak Via Steam Preload Blunder

Game News - Mon, 05/11/2026 - 21:33

Just days before it was scheduled to release, Forza Horizon 6 on PC has leaked. Reports have begun circulating online of the entire game being uploaded online as an unencrypted Steam preload, with various piracy websites moving quickly to make the entire 155GB file available to download via torrents.

How did this happen? It's speculated that the Forza Horizon 6 preload is the culprit here, as in the buildup to the game's release so that players can start touring Japan as soon as possible, Steam may have accidentally pushed a decryption update for the game files too early. Microsoft isn't sitting idly by while one of its biggest releases of the year is pirated, and it has already begun making moves with takedown notices on various sites.

It also remains to be seen just how playable the game is in offline mode, and these pirated versions will naturally be excluded from post-launch plans. To put this into perspective, Forza Horizon 5 is estimated to have sold between 7.2 million and 8.4 million units on Steam (according to Sensor Tower data), so pre-launch piracy will most certainly take a large bite out of any potential sales.

Nintendo Stock Continues To Dive Following Low Switch 2 Sales Predictions

Game News - Mon, 05/11/2026 - 18:02

Nintendo's share price dropped almost 8% on Monday as investors respond to the company's overly pessimistic outlook for the Switch 2's second year of sales. The slump took Nintendo's share price to its lowest point in almost two years, after the company admitted it was feeling the squeeze from memory shortages and other market pressures.

On sales numbers alone the Switch 2 looks like a runaway success, but Nintendo isn't confident that the console can maintain its momentum, especially with a price hike on the way. In its earnings release, Nintendo said that hardware shortages and the strong first-year sales would result in Switch 2 sales declining in its second year--which would be unusual as consoles are generally expected to gain momentum in their second year on the market.

As Nintendo stock continues its downward slide, Sony is up 10% following an earnings release that showed a drop in sales but a rise in profit. While Sony's hardware sales are also feeling the impact of memory shortages, strong digital sales are carrying the company's gaming segment.
