The move coincides with the series 8th anniversary.Both games will be available separately, digitally and physically, as well as in a digital-only bundle. Octopath Traveler and Octopath Traveler II, first released in 2018 and 2023, respectively, feature improved frame rates and resolutions on Switch 2. Unfortunately, reading the fine print of the announcement trailer states that if you own the original Switch versions of these HD-2D RPGs, Square Enix is not offering an upgrade path for the Switch 2 editions. Furthermore, save data is not compatible between…
After a brief hiatus, Acer has broken that silence, and it did so without any fanfare. Acer Mobile LATAM has quietly listed the Acer Sospiro A15, a phone with a dual-display design, Android 16, and a 64MP rear camera. Here’s everything you need to know about the phone. The second screen on the back is doing the heavy lifting The main attraction here is the 1.88-inch TFT panel sitting on the back of the phone. You can use it to check notifications and control your music without unlocking the device, which is handy. But its best use is as a…
AMD has been hinting at Multi-Frame Generation for its Radeon cards for a while now, and it looks like the company is further along than it has let on. Preliminary support quietly showed up in the ADLX FidelityFX SDK back in April with the FSR Redstone update, letting users pick a frame generation ratio for the best mix of performance and image quality. Since then, AMD has shipped several big driver updates, including FSR 4.1.1. As reported by Wccftech, a user on the Chiphell forums used a tool called RadeonTuner to dig through the Adrenalin 26.6.2 WHQL drivers and found…
Google has cut the 128GB Pixel 10 Pro in Obsidian to $699, knocking $300 off its usual price and beating its Prime Day offer by another $50. There’s an unusually specific catch. The deepest discount only applies to one color and one storage option, while other unlocked Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL models remain $250 off. The sale ends July 26, a little over two weeks before the Pixel 11 is expected to be announced on August 12. With some Pixel 10 Pro configurations already vanishing, Google may be trying to clear the shelves before its next flagship arrives.…
Europe is taking its biggest step yet toward keeping kids off social media entirely. A panel of experts today handed the European Commission a report recommending sweeping new age restrictions, according to a New York Times report. Commission president Ursula von der Leyen is expected to turn those recommendations into a formal law proposal in September. What the proposal aims to restrict The report lays out three tiers for social media access across different age groups. It recommends keeping kids under 3 off screens entirely and banning social media access for kids under 13, unless a parent or teacher is…
The Motorola Edge 70 Max has surfaced in a hands-on video just two days before its July 15 launch in India. Paired with a fresh set of official-looking renders, the leak leaves little about the phone’s exterior to the imagination. The footage shows a glass back, an aluminum frame, and a sizeable square camera island. Underneath that polished design sits a 7,100mAh battery with 90W wired charging and 25W magnetic wireless charging. Motorola may still have software features saved for launch day, but anyone curious about the hardware now has a remarkably complete preview. What does the video reveal The…
Copilot‘s next trick is diagnosing your PC’s problems, but the catch is that the assistant doing the diagnosing is itself part of the problem. Windows Latest reports that Microsoft is testing a new Copilot feature called PC Insights, which will let you ask the AI assistant natural language questions about your computer’s hardware and storage instead of digging through the Task Manager or Settings. The feature will reportedly allow users to ask questions like, “Do I have enough space for a 100GB game?” and Copilot will check the available storage to offer a response. Users will also be able to…
It seems that OpenAI has been on a gallop lately, releasing new updates left and right. Just a few days back, the company launched its GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna models for the general public, and now it’s back with another update that will please its users even more. The headline change is that the 5-hour usage limit restriction in ChatGPT Work and Codex is being temporarily removed for all Plus, Business, and Pro plans. If you have ever been in the middle of a long working session and watched the limit message appear at the worst possible moment, this…
Most home robots today have one thing in common: they’re loud, rigid, and unmistakably robotic. Whether it’s a vacuum cleaner bumping into furniture or a drone buzzing overhead, they’re built to perform tasks – not necessarily to make people feel comfortable. Researchers in Japan think there’s a better way, and it starts with taking inspiration from animated creatures rather than industrial machines. A research team led by Mingyang Xu at Keio University, in collaboration with institutions including the MIT Media Lab, has unveiled a prototype floating companion robot that glides silently through the air instead of rolling across the floor.…
The Apple Music app on the Mac is not up to the mark. I don’t like how it looks or behaves, and Apple should take some inspiration from Spotify to make the app more modern and useful. Until that happens, we are stuck with a subpar app experience. That’s why I never use the Apple Music app on my Mac and rely on third-party apps that let me control music. Today I am featuring one of the latest apps I discovered. It’s called Liqoria, and it’s probably the only music player app you will ever need. What makes Liqoria different…
