Despite its origins as a comic book publisher, Marvel is fighting game royalty on par with the likes of Mortal Kombat and The King of Fighters. But after the disappointing Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite fell massively short of expectations, and with the release of Arc System Works’ Dragon Ball FighterZ giving hyper tag-team fighting game fans a new home, Marvel’s reign in the fighting game world felt at its end. Just shy of a decade since Infinite, however, Arc System Works delivers Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls, a fighter that is as much of an advancement to the genre as it…

Anthropic just made its Claude browser extension a lot smarter, and it can remember your conversations on desktop, web, or mobile. The Claude in Chrome side panel now runs as a full Claude Cowork session, meaning your conversations, skills, and connectors all carry over between your browser and Claude’s desktop, web, and mobile apps. Before this update, browser sessions stayed completely separate from everything else, so switching devices meant starting over. How Claude in Chrome actually works now Claude in Chrome can now see whatever page you are on and take real actions inside it, including clicking links, typing text,…

Turning a regular bike into an e-bike just got easier. The new Asus Oxiis E250G1 can clamp onto your seatpost and press a small motorized roller against your rear tire, that adds electric assist to almost any bike you already own. How does the Asus Oxiis E250G1 work The device uses a friction drive system, in which a compact motor unit presses against the rear tire to spin it faster when you need extra power. An anti-slip mechanism keeps that roller gripping the tire consistently, even on bumpy terrain, so power transfer stays smooth instead of slipping out under load.…

Google’s Pixel 11 family is here, and on paper, it fixes several things I wanted to see improved from the Pixel 10 generation. Tensor G6 promises a meaningful performance bump on all four models, while Google has upgraded cameras throughout the lineup, along with faster charging, and the Pro models get brighter and tougher displays. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold also undergoes much-needed design refinements. These are some solid improvements for an annual update to Google’s flagship lineup. But whether they justify replacing a Pixel 10 you bought a year ago is a different question. Having covered and used enough…

Made by Google has already given us plenty to talk about. The Pixel 11 series is finally here, alongside the Pixel Watch 5, refreshed Pixel Buds Pro 2, and the long-awaited Pixel Tag. But tucked between all those bigger announcements is something considerably smaller that caught my attention: Google’s new PixelSnap accessories. They may not be as exciting as a brand-new phone or smartwatch, but they could end up being some of the Pixel accessories you actually use every single day. PixelSnap makes charging a little more useful The PixelSnap Charger is pretty straightforward on its own, but Google has…

After a 20-year hiatus, Capcom’s samurai action series Onimusha is back. Well, almost – the next installment, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, launches next month. Ahead of its release, I traveled to Capcom’s Osaka HQ in Japan to play never-before-seen parts of the game and interview the team making it for Game Informer’s latest cover (and you can read the cover story right here). I’ve been writing exclusive features, interviews, and more from my time with Capcom, and you can read them all in the Onimusha: Way of the Sword hub. Despite having played the demo a few times and playing through roughly three hours of…

On the surface, the new Pixel 11 series may seem like an iterative refresh, but the devices bring one big change under the hood. All four models pack Google’s new Tensor G6 chip, which is designed to make the latest generation of Pixels faster, more efficient, and better at handling the AI features that define the lineup. Faster, smarter, and more efficient Google says the Tensor G6 delivers up to 25% faster browsing and 15% faster app loads compared to last year’s Tensor G5. The chip pairs an upgraded Image Signal Processor with a new TPU that Google says is…

Yesterday, Phantom Blade Zero developer S-Game released a new look at its upcoming high-speed action game. At 11 minutes long, it’s packed to the brim with flashy combat, uniquely designed enemies, and new story details (which have been scarce so far). The trailer ends with the reveal that Donnie Yen, an actor (John Wick 4, Rogue One) and martial artist, will appear in the game as Mó Yuan, providing the voice, face model, and motion capture. Yen is also listed as a creative consultant. You can view the trailer below. These set pieces are intense to an almost comical degree, reminding…

Samsung may have decided against bringing one of its old camera tricks back for the Galaxy S27 series, just as Apple prepares to adopt something similar on the iPhone 18 Pro. According to Korean publication ETNews, Samsung has decided not to equip the Galaxy S27 series with a variable aperture camera. The company had reportedly been developing the technology with several camera module suppliers, including Samsung Electro-Mechanics and MCNEX. Samsung has been here before Variable aperture would hardly be new territory for Samsung. The company introduced its Dual Aperture camera on the Galaxy S9 in 2018, allowing the main camera…
