🎮 Multi-platformResident Evil Requiem Just Dropped A Free Roguelite Mode Built Around Leon’s Ass-Kicking Skills
Mere months after launch, Resident Evil Requiem(https://www.gamespot.com/games/resident-evil-requiem/) has shadow-dropped a new mode that focuses purely on the best part of the game: Leon S. Kennedy's talent for taking care of bioweapons that have run amok. Titled "Leon Must Die Forever," the minigame adds a roguelike element to Leon's survival-action gameplay while taking players through familiar levels and boss fights from the Requiem campaign. It was originally thought that Requiem would get a form of the popular Mercenaries mode that has been present in several Resident Evil games over the years, but this minigame sees the franchise explore new gameplay territory. You can check out the trailer through this link(https://youtu.be/tYd5DfcGyS4), and screenshots of it below. !No Caption Provided(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1601/16018044/4692484-leon-must-die-forver.jpg)(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/scalesuper/1601/16018044/4692484-leon-must-die-forver.jpg) Gallery !Gallery image 1(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/squareavatar/1601/16018044/4692492-re9ss2026050801.jpg)(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1601/16018044/4692492-re9ss2026050801.jpg) !Gallery image 2(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/squareavatar/1601/16018044/4692493-re9ss2026050802.jpg)(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1601/16018044/4692493-re9ss2026050802.jpg) !Gallery image 3(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/squareavatar/1601/16018044/4692494-re9ss2026050803.jpg)(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1601/16018044/4692494-re9ss2026050803.jpg) !Gallery image 4(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/squareavatar/1601/16018044/4692495-re9ss2026050804.jpg)(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1601/16018044/4692495-re9ss2026050804.jpg) !Gallery image 5(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/squareavatar/1601/16018044/4692496-re9ss2026050805.jpg)(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1601/16018044/4692496-re9ss2026050805.jpg) !Gallery image 6(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/squareavatar/1601/16018044/4692497-re9ss2026050806.jpg)(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1601/16018044/4692497-re9ss2026050806.jpg) !Gallery image 7(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/squareavatar/1601/16018044/4692498-re9ss2026050807.jpg)(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1601/16018044/4692498-re9ss2026050807.jpg) !Gallery image 8(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/squareavatar/1601/16018044/4692499-re9ss2026050808.jpg)(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1601/16018044/4692499-re9ss2026050808.jpg) !Gallery image 9(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/squareavatar/1601/16018044/4692500-re9ss2026050809.jpg)(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1601/16018044/4692500-re9ss2026050809.jpg) !Gallery image 10(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/squareavatar/1601/16018044/4692501-re9ss2026050810.jpg)(https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/1601/16018044/4692501-re9ss2026050810.jpg) Continue Reading at GameSpot(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/resident-evil-requiem-just-dropped-a-free-roguelite-mode-built-around-leons-ass-kicking-skills/1100-6539858/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/)

🎮 PlayStation, Multi-platformPS6 Release Date And Price Are Still Up In The Air, Sony Says
In its latest financial results, Sony revealed that it has yet to determine pricing or a launch date for the PlayStation 6(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/playstation-6-everything-we-know-about-sonys-next-generation-console/1100-6533561/). While the console hasn't been officially unveiled yet, Sony did mention that it is increasing investment in its "next-generation platform" while also working out how to deal with the global component shortage crisis driven by various global factors currently. Responding to questions, Sony president and CEO Hiroki Totoki explained that the rising costs for vital components(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/nvidia-reportedly-combatting-gpu-shortages-by-bringing-back-discontinued-graphics-card/1100-6537185/) like RAM would have an impact on its PS6 plans. "We have not yet decided on at what timing we will launch the new console, or at what prices," Totoki said(https://www.irwebmeeting.com/sony/live/20260508/FLxqkweF/2026034q02en/index.html) during the call. "We would like to really observe and follow the situation. Looking at the current circumstances, the memory price is also expected to be very high in the Financial Year 2027, because there will still be a shortage of supply. So under that assumption, we must think carefully about what we will do."

🎮 PlayStation, Multi-platformSony’s PS5 sales plummet amid price rises and a memory crisis
Sony sold just 1.5 million PS5 consoles in its most recent fourth fiscal quarter, down 46 percent year over year. The slump in PS5 sales comes after Sony raised the price of its PS5 consoles twice over the past year, pushing the price of the regular PS5 from $499.99 all the way up to $649.99. &8230;

🎮 PlayStation, Multi-platformSony Just Reported A New Record-Breaking High Figure, But It's Unsurprising
Sony has released its financial results(https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/IR/library/presen/er/pdf/25q4sonypre.pdf) for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, including the fact that the majority of PlayStation game sales are digital. Of course, this comes as no surprise since digital sales overtook physical between 2018 and 2019, in the PS4's midcycle. When the PlayStation 5 launched with an option to have no disc drive at all, it was evident that the digital era had become king. Now, Sony has reported that a record-breaking 85% of PlayStation game sales were digital in Q4 of its last full fiscal year. That's a 2% increase from 2024, where Q1 and Q4 reported 80% of sales were digital. Its sales in gaming overall remained "essentially flat," contributed to positively by the impact of foreign exchange rates, an increase in sales from network services, and an increase in sales of non-first-party titles.

🎮 Multi-platformSony Writes Off Another $565 Million Impairment Loss Against Bungie
After writing $204 million off Bungie's value(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/sony-takes-a-204-million-hit-as-destiny-2-falls-short-of-expectations/1100-6536124/) in November last year, Sony has recorded another $565 million impairment loss against the studio--resulting in a total $769 million being wiped off Bungie's value in the last financial year. While Sony gaming's FY2025 results are generally pretty strong considering the challenging market conditions, the company listed the $769 million loss against Bungie's value as the biggest negative factor impacting its operating income. The write down, which represents over 20% of the $3.6 billion Sony paid for Bungie(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/bungie-acquired-by-sony-for-3-6-billion/1100-6500122/) back in 2022, doesn't look good for Bungie, or either of its ongoing titles. The loss may turn out to be another nail in the coffin for Marathon, which has been slowly losing players since it launched in March. While the game has a small but loyal playerbase(https://www.gamespot.com/videos/enjoy-marathon-now-before-sony-kills-it/2300-6466800/) who appreciate its unique style and aesthetics, no one seems particularly optimistic about Marathon's longevity at the moment.

🍄 Nintendo Switch, Multi-platformThe Nintendo Switch 2 Is Officially Getting A Price Hike In September
Amid pressure from investors(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/switch-2-reportedly-too-good-a-deal-investors-want-that-fixed/1100-6539811/), Nintendo has announced that it will be increasing the price of the Nintendo Switch 2(https://www.gamespot.com/games/nintendo-switch-2/) to $500 from September 1, 2026. The new pricing is a $50 increase from the Switch 2's current $450 price point. Nintendo announced the price hike in today's earnings release for the 2026 financial year, where ongoing hardware pressures continue to impact the company's bottom line. The pricing changes are being implemented "in light of changes in market conditions, and after considering the global business outlook," Nintendo said in a press release(https://www.nintendo.co.jp/corporate/release/en/2026/260508.html). The $50 price increase is at the lower end of the range anticipated by analysts(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/switch-2-price-could-go-up-by-50-or-100-expert-predicts/1100-6537884/). Multiple regions are set to receive a similar price bump on September 1, including the US, Canada, and Europe, however Japanese consumers will be the first to be impacted, with the local price for the system set to increase from May 25.
