You only have a few weeks left to enjoy Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile before it goes dark
Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile is nearly out of time. Activision says the servers shut down on April 17, 2026, and the game won’t be playable after that. Until then, it’s business as usual with what’s already in the app. If Warzone Mobile is still installed on your device, you can keep jumping in, using your unlocked gear, and spending any COD Points you have left. Don’t wait. There’s an important limit for anyone who removed it. Warzone Mobile was pulled from Google Play and the Apple App Store in May 2025, so you can’t reinstall it later just to…
Arkheron is a battle royale – stay with me – but that’s the least interesting aspect of it. It is also an isometric PvP action game that feels like a shooter with Hades-like elements. I know this is a barrage of fancy keywords and descriptors, and the honest truth is that Arkheron is such a unique mix of mechanics that it feels easiest to introduce it like that. Developed by Bonfire Studios and set to launch this year, Arkheron puts 15 teams of three players against each other in a dark fantasy tower. The winner is the last team standing…
Windows 11 is getting a built-in way to measure your connection speed, and it’s placed right where you already look when something feels off. Instead of jumping to a third-party site or installing another utility, you’ll be able to kick off a Windows 11 speed test from the taskbar area in a couple of clicks. The shortcut shows up in Quick Settings under Wi-Fi or Cellular, and it’s also available by right-clicking the network icon in the system tray. When you run it, Windows opens your default browser and starts the test there. The setup is simple, but it’s still…
Xenoblade Chronicles X, like many games, was a good game stuck on the poorly selling Wii U. Last March, it was freed from those confines and ported to the Switch, but since it was only a few months before the launch of the Switch 2, some felt rightfully frustrated that it didn’t get the performance boost from the newest console. Today, however, Nintendo not only announced that very upgrade, but you don’t have to wait – it’s out right now. The paid upgrade costs $4.99, and if you don’t have a copy of the game yet, you can buy a Switch…
Think you can easily identify AI-generated faces? A new study suggests you might be overestimating yourself. Researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) and the Australian National University (ANU) tested 125 participants on their ability to distinguish real human faces from AI-generated ones. Most volunteers were confident in their judgment, but the results told a different story. Even people with exceptional face recognition skills, referred to as super-recognizers, only scored slightly above average. The study used AI-generated faces that removed obvious visual errors, making them highly convincing. While early examples often had telltale flaws like distorted teeth or…
Microsoft has warned that a Microsoft 365 Copilot issue led Copilot Chat to generate summaries from confidential emails that should have been blocked by sensitivity labels and data loss prevention controls. It detected the problem on January 21, and tied it to the Copilot “work tab” chat experience. If your workplace relies on labels and DLP to keep sensitive mail from being processed, the immediate question is simple. Did the fix reach your tenant, and does Copilot still pull from the wrong places. A DLP bypass in the work tab First spotted by BleepingComputer, Microsoft says an internal code error…
Following last year’s design overhaul and the addition of a retro film-style camera feature, Google is rolling out another update for Snapseed on iOS. The latest release refines the Snapseed camera, making it easier to access and adding new capabilities. When Google first debuted the Snapseed camera last year, users could only access it from a Lock Screen widget, the Control Center, or using the Camera Control button. With version 3.15.0, the company has added a new camera shortcut in the top-right corner of the app’s interface, allowing users to launch the Snapseed camera from within the app. 9to5Google reports…
AI chatbots with web browsing can be abused as malware relays, based on a Check Point Research demo. Instead of malware calling home to a traditional command server, it can use a chatbot’s URL fetching to pull instructions from a malicious page, then carry the response back to the infected machine. In many environments, traffic to major AI destinations is already treated as routine, which can let command-and-control fade into normal web use. The same path can also be used to move data out. Microsoft addressed the work in a statement and framed it as a post-compromise communications issue. It…
Google Maps has quietly begun treating signed-out users differently. It gives them the directions but hides all the other useful information, including photos, reviews, restaurant menus, etc. The development was shared by several Reddit user (1,2) over the last week (covered by 9To5Google). Signed-out users are reportedly seeing a pop-up that informs them about “Seeing a limited view of Google Maps,” along with the list of possible reasons, including Maps experiencing issues, unusual traffic from users’ computers or networks, or browser extensions. Sign in or see a “limited” Maps experience At the bottom of the pop-up is a message that…
Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta is reviving its plan to release a smartwatch (codenamed “Malibu 2”), with a targeted launch later this year. According to a new report from The Information (vie Reuters), Meta’s first smartwatch could feature several health and fitness-tracking features. Further, like the Ray-Ban Meta glasses, the smartwatch will include a built-in Meta AI assistant. In fact, the company will bank on integrating its AI assistant into the smartwatch, as this will help create an AI-powered consumer hardware ecosystem. An AI-first wearables strategy It looks like the company might position itself on AI-based features and experience. This isn’t the…
