In 2012, Arkane Studios launched what would become its breakout hit, Dishonored. Billed as a modernized take on the immersive sims of old, the first-person action game had players control assassin Corvo Attano, who must prove his innocence after being framed for the murder of the empress he was sworn to protect. Sporting a mix of assassin weaponry and supernatural powers, players could infiltrate areas using a variety of methods and pathways. The game also boasted a striking “whalepunk” aesthetic that stood out from other titles at the time. Dishonored was well received at launch by players and critics alike,…
Samsung has spent the past few days building anticipation for Galaxy Unpacked, but one of the company’s biggest pre-launch moments may not have come from an official teaser. Instead, it appears to have come from BTS. During soundcheck ahead of BTS’ concert in Paris, J-Hope shared an Instagram Story that appears to show Samsung’s upcoming book-style foldable. While the device isn’t identified by name, its wider cover display and revised proportions look remarkably similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 8 that has surfaced repeatedly through recent leaks and renders. Given Samsung’s close relationship with the BTS member, it’s difficult to…
Magic: The Gathering is starting to look ahead to 2027. While a handful of sets remain to launch this year, Wizards of the Coast used its stage time at MagicCon Amsterdam today to announce all of its in-universe sets for the coming year, as well as some travel plans for an expanded MagicCon lineup.2027 will see Magic split between its in-universe and crossover Universes Beyond sets again, with three sets apiece. They’ll swap back and forth through the year, alternating releases, so no back-to-back UB sets in 2027. And while we didn’t see what the crossovers are, the in-universe sets…
Roughly five days before the Galaxy Unpacked event, renowned tipster Evan Blass (aka @evleaks) has leaked what appear to be the official promotional images of all the eighth-generation Galaxy Z foldables.

What do the leaked promotional pictures reveal? First, let’s talk about the Fold 8 Ultra, the most expensive and the most equipped foldable flagship of them all. The tipster has shared…
In 2010, Heavenly Sword and Enslaved: Odyssey to the West developer Ninja Theory took on the tall task of rebooting Capcom’s beloved Devil May Cry franchise. With Capcom encouraging the team to create a radically bold reinvention, Ninja Theory introduced fans to new versions of Dante, Vergil, and the series’ lore in its 2013 action game DmC Devil May Cry. The game’s dramatic change in direction enraged some fans at the time, with much of that anger specifically aimed at its redesign of Dante, who sported jet-black hair instead of the character’s signature white hair. Despite the pre-release negativity, DmC Devil…
China’s Moonshot AI has launched Kimi K3, a massive 2.8-trillion-parameter model built for coding, research, reasoning, and visual tasks. Moonshot admits K3 still trails Claude Fable 5 and GPT 5.6 Sol overall. Even so, its benchmark results put it surprisingly close to both, and it finishes ahead in several tests. How close is Kimi K3 to the best closed models? K3 scored 77.8 on Program Bench, narrowly beating Fable 5 at 76.8 and GPT 5.6 Sol at 77.6. It also led BrowseComp with 91.2 and SWE Marathon with 42.0, ahead of both rivals. Other results show there is still some…

1Password is giving Claude a way into your online accounts without making your passwords part of the bargain. The new 1Password for Claude integration can fill login details while keeping the credentials hidden from Anthropic’s AI agent. Available now on Mac, the feature kicks in when Claude reaches a sign-in page during a task. Claude requests a saved login, then you approve or deny it. If approved, 1Password submits the credentials through a separate encrypted channel. Passwords and one-time codes never enter Claude’s context or Anthropic’s systems. How does 1Password keep Claude out Claude identifies the website and asks for…
We got our first look at Ryan Hurst and Callum Vinson as Kratos and Atreus in Amazon Prime’s God of War TV series adaptation back in February, and though the response to it was mixed at best, the studio’s track record with other video game properties, like Fallout, kept us optimistic. The show has been significantly set back, however, due to a serious injury Hurst sustained on set, which led Amazon, reportedly, to recast the role of Kratos. Deadline reports that Hurst, who gained 40 pounds of muscle in anticipation of this role, tore a bicep while performing a stunt on…
TCL has spent years saying inkjet-printed OLED could improve image quality, efficiency, lifespan, and manufacturing costs. Back in 2024, the company was still showing prototype laptop panels and promising a “comprehensive breakthrough” once the technology was ready for commercial products. Two years later, it has finally arrived in a gaming laptop. Lenovo’s new Legion R9000P uses a 16-inch panel that TCL CSOT describes as the world’s first inkjet-printed OLED display integrated into a laptop. What makes inkjet-printed OLED different? Traditional OLED manufacturing deposits light-emitting material inside expensive vacuum equipment using highly precise metal masks. Inkjet printing places the organic material…
