A PlayStation 6 rumor is putting a surprisingly specific number on next-gen expectations. The claim from leaker KeplerL2 says Sony’s next console could ship with 30GB of GDDR7 memory, a jump designed to give modern games more room to breathe. That same leak ties the console talk to a PlayStation handheld with 24GB, expected to use LPDDR5X instead of GDDR7. Two different devices, two different memory types, but a similar message, Sony may be aiming for fewer compromises when games scale across form factors. The catch is simple, there’s no official timing, pricing, or confirmation from Sony. The report floats…

Not every game clicks instantly. Highguard was released with little prior fanfare and even less explanation of its novel systems; my early games left me confused and frustrated. But with each match I played, I warmed to the flow of the action, the feel of movement and weapons, and the unique playstyle developer Wildlight Entertainment is trying to introduce. The game has a long way to go to be at its best, but for competitive shooter players looking for a departure from expectation, there’s good reason to be hopeful about Highguard’s future.Highguard drops players into an unusual magical world of…

If you told an EV owner five years ago that a mainstream automaker might be testing 2,100 kW charging, they probably would have laughed at you. However, that is exactly what leaked documents tied to BYD appear to suggest. A new report from Car News China, citing social media posts and screenshots of regulatory filings circulating on Chinese social media platforms, suggests that BYD is experimenting with super-fast charging technology capable of reaching a maximum input power of up to 2,100 kW (2.1 MW). What 2.1 megawatts could really deliver Even though the system might not deliver a direct 2,100…

If you’re used to hopping between gaming servers, sharing memes, or catching up with friends on Discord, be ready for a small twist in how the platform works. Starting March 2026, Discord will introduce a global age verification system that automatically places every user into a “teen-appropriate experience” until they prove they’re an adult. To fully unlock age-restricted content and certain features, users will need to verify their age via face-based AI estimation or a government-issued ID. According to Discord’s official announcement, this change is part of a broader safety push to control access to adult or graphic material and…

Riot Games is laying off employees on its 2XKO team, just a few weeks after the game’s 1.0 launch on PC and consoles on January 20. The company announced this in a blog post, and though it doesn’t share how many employees are being laid off, a Riot spokesperson told Game Developer that approximately 80 employees were let go, which is around half of the game’s development team. As for why, Riot says that while 2XKO has resonated with a passionate core audience, “overall momentum hasn’t reached the level needed to support a team of this size long term.” Despite the…
