Sony is bracing itself for a $680 million impact from US tariffs, and to compensate for those potential losses, the PlayStation manufacturer might pass the increasing costs to its customers. During the company's earnings call, Sony CFO Lin Tao told investors that price increases on its hardware are being considered, although the PS5 console was not mentioned specifically.

CEO Hiroki Totoki did mention that some PS5 console manufacturing could be moved to the US--most of its consoles are produced in China and are subject to a 30% tariff for now--as this would be "an efficient strategy" to avoid being caught in the crossfire of US President Donald Trump's tariffs.

"This hardware can be produced locally," Totoki said during the earnings call via a translator. "I think that would be an efficient strategy. PS5s are being manufactured in many areas. Whether it's going to be manufactured in the US or not, it needs to be considered going forward."

A new leak from the ongoing Battlefield Labs playtest has revealed that the landing roll first introduced in Battlefield 5 will most likely be returning for the next game. As of now, however, the animation being used for the playtest looks rougher and clunkier than BF5's roll, and players were quick to criticize it.

A video showing the landing roll from the Battlefield Labs playtest was posted to the BattlehubYT X account, via Insider Gaming, and while that version of the video was taken down by a copyright claim, the video has since been re-uploaded by other accounts.

The video shows a roll similar to Battlefield 5's landing roll, which could be used to reduce fall damage when dropping from a height--however the playtest version is slower, clunkier, and overall more disorienting. With the first-person perspective shown in the video, the current animation feels likely to cause motion sickness in players if used too often.

The SAG-AFTRA voice actors strike is now in its 10th month, and prominent voice actors are asking fans to speak up for the people behind their beloved game characters. In a recent interview, Master Chief voice actor Steve Downes spoke on the issue of AI voice acting that has fueled the ongoing strike, appealing to fans to support the actors' fight.

Speaking to Rebs Gaming in a clip posted to X, Downes explained that the "single issue" of the strike is now the use of AI, and ensuring that voice actors have a say over how--or if--their voices are used for AI replicas.

"We haven't been able to make any progress with that at all so far," Downes says of the strike that started last July. "So we're really asking the people who consume this game, who made Halo what it is, to voice their opinion about this and show support."

Spiders drop string when killedHow to find string in Minecraft

Killing spiders is the easiest way to get your hands on a lot of string quickly. They're noisy, so you'll know their location easily, although we've found that they spawn most often in dark caves and under trees in dense forests. They're also pretty big, so hitting them is easy, and taking them down isn't strenuous at all.

While killing spiders is the easiest way to get your hands on plenty of string, there are other methods. You can also break cobwebs, fish, and loot it from jungle temples, desert pyramids, and dungeons. If you have some tamed cats around your base, it might also bring you some string as a gift from time to time. Although we've heard that cats only bring "gifts" when they think you're incapable of looking after yourself--so take from that what you will.
