For how well-received The Wolf Among Us was by both critics and audiences, it’s shocking that it has taken so long for the series to be revisited. But despite years of development hurdles and roadblocks, The Wolf Among Us 2 is finally coming next year, and to re-familiarize players with the universe, The Wolf Among Us Remastered was announced for later this year during Summer Game Fest. That said, it wasn’t until Gamescom (which is going on right now!) that we got an official date for the remaster: October 29.  A new trailer also revealed the choice-driven adventure remaster will launch…

RAM is getting expensive, and Google isn’t waiting around to see how bad it gets. The company has announced new memory rules for Android apps distributed through the Play Store, and developers now have a hard deadline to clean up their code. As prices climb, people are opting for devices with leaner specs, and apps that use too much memory are hurting the overall experience for everyone. What’s changing for app developers? Starting in February 2027, apps must meet new memory thresholds across three areas. Dynamic memory usage tracks how much private data storage an app consumes while running or…

Gemini Notebook, formerly known as NotebookLM, is getting a new feature that will let you directly access and cite information from the books you own. Fittingly, Google refers to this new feature as Expert Intelligence, and the whole idea behind it is pretty clear. Instead of citing information from the sources you upload, or pull from the internet, you can now also extract knowledge from digital books you’ve purchased. Of course, you must own the book after purchasing it from the Google Play Books library. For now, Google is offering one free book to users in the US as part…

Rockstar’s first extended look at gameplay for Grand Theft Auto VI aired exclusively on Netflix this afternoon, giving subscribers the first glance at moment-to-moment action as well as plenty of story cinematics. If you don’t have a Netflix subscription and can’t wait until the footage is uploaded to Rockstar’s YouTube channel at 9 p.m. ET tonight, here’s a summary of what this extended look had to offer.  Instead of presenting this footage, which Rockstar billed as being captured on PlayStation 5, as a guided trailer breaking down Grand Theft Auto VI’s gameplay, the video is essentially a very long trailer…

Trip planning usually means a dozen browser tabs, three airline apps, and a spreadsheet nobody asked for. Google wants to collapse all of that into one conversation. The company just added three travel features to AI Mode that let you watch flight prices, weigh your rewards points against cash, and book a hotel room without ever switching windows. Flight alerts and rewards, sorted in one chat Google Flights has offered price alerts for quite some time, but now that same tracking lives inside AI Mode itself. If you tell Google where you’re headed and when, it scans over 300 airlines…

Today, Rockstar finally raised the curtain on Grand Theft Auto VI, and we got our first good look at what the game will actually play like. While we saw footage of GTA staples like shootouts and police chases, anyone who’s played one of these massive open-world games knows that many of the most memorable moments are the optional side activities. Today’s trailer showed a lot of them, and while we don’t yet know if all of them are actually playable, we’ve gathered every activity we could spot in one article.

Samsung’s Fan Edition has had a pretty good reputation so far. The idea is to celebrate fans (us, the customers) with specifications and features found in Samsung’s top-tier flagships, but at a more affordable price point so more people can experience them. The S25 FE was a decent iteration in the lineup. It struck the perfect balance between accessibility and a flagship-like look and feel, which is the entire point of the Fan Edition. However, in my frank opinion, the new Galaxy S26 FE doesn’t really belong in that special zone, and yet again, it’s the unforgiving memory crisis at…

Scott Pilgrim EX is getting two batches of new content today: some paid, and some free. For starters, $3.99 gets you three new playable characters: Kim Pine, Stephen Stills, and Knives Chau. The trio does appear in the base game’s story, but this is the first we’ve been able to play as them. You can see them in action in the trailer below. Knives, unsurprisingly, can be seen wielding knives in combat, and she also has a screen-spanning corkscrew attack. Kim uses her drumsticks to summon purple magical energy and projectiles with bats. Finally, Stephen brawls with his fists and acoustic…

Generating a short AI video is one thing; getting several shots to actually look like they belong in the same video is a much harder problem. Google is taking another swing at that with Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash, its latest generative video model aimed at giving creators and developers much more control over what happens between the first frame and the last. The biggest change is how much of an existing video Gemini can remember when you ask it to continue a scene. Omni 1.1 can look at up to 10 seconds of previous footage for context, rather than relying…
