🎮 Multi-platformGTA 6 Price Commented On By Rockstar's Owner
One of the biggest talking points surrounding Rockstar's upcoming open-world game GTA 6(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/grand-theft-auto-6-everything-we-know/1100-6503729/) is how much it will cost, and now the top boss at Rockstar's owner Take-Two has weighed in. Speaking at iicon this week in Las Vegas, Strauss Zelnick suggested the game will have a "reasonable" price, but he did not say exactly what it will be. "Consumers pay for the value that you bring to them, and our job is to charge way way way less of the value delivery," Zelnick said, as reported by IGN(https://www.ign.com/articles/take-two-ceo-addresses-grand-theft-auto-6-price-and-the-possibility-for-more-la-noire). "How you feel about something you buy is the intersection of the thing itself and what you pay for. Consumers need to feel like the thing itself is amazing and the price they were charged was fair for what they got."

🎮 Multi-platformWitcher 3 Director Says Studios Should Embrace GenAI, But Not To Replace People
Game developers should embrace generative AI, according to The Witcher 3 game director Konrad Tomsazkiewicz. He said this in a new interview in which he also confirmed his upcoming new game, The Blood of Dawnwalker, used generative AI early in the process, but no AI-generated assets should be in the final game. He also said his studio Rebel Wolves wants to use AI to help support its existing workers, not replace them. During a discussion attended by Eurogamer(https://www.eurogamer.net/the-blood-of-dawnwalker-ai), Tomsazkiewic said Rebel Wolves used generative AI to create voices in the game "in the early stage" of development. He said an RPG like The Blood of Dawnwalker requires its developer to support multiple different languages, and this is "costly" and changes after initial recording can be "really expensive." Rebel Wolves utilized generative AI to hear NPC voices early in the development process to help team members determine if something is working or not. If Rebel Wolves used real human voices at this early stage of development, and then realized a change was needed, that would be "really expensive" and not efficient game development, creating new pressure on the team, Tomsazkiewicz said.

🎮 Multi-platformThis Pokemon Champions Addition Should Be A Huge Help To Casual Players
Getting into Pokemon Champions can be daunting for casual fans of the series, seeing how seriously players take competitive battling. But the game's rotating rosters of recruitable Pokemon should make building a viable team much easier, as the latest roster update shows. The new 2026 Global Challenge Special Roster was added to the game on April 24, and it'll be available until May 4. It has a smaller lineup of 31 Pokemon compared to the 229 Pokemon in the Regular Roster M-A that Champions launched with. Recruiting out of this roster will give players a better chance of getting Pokemon popular in the meta like Incineroar, which should provide an extra edge in competitive play. As with any roster in Pokemon Champions, players can recruit one Pokemon for free every 22 hours--any additional recruitment until the reset will require Victory Points, and Quick Coupons can be utilized to shorten the waiting period.

🎮 PlayStation, Multi-platformSaros reminded me how great the DualSense can be
The DualSense controller was one of Sony's main selling points for the PS5. Beyond things like a striking new design and adaptive triggers, the controller's haptic feedback offered genuinely cool new experiences for games. Rumble effects had been around for decades at that point, but the DualSense offered something very different: I'm still blown away &8230;

A developer has created a method to get Linux running on some versions of Sony's PlayStation 5 console. Andy Nguyen previously showed off a ported version of Ubuntu running PC games on a PS5 last month, and he's now published the installation steps on GitHub this week. This is a soft mod, so it won't &8230;

🎮 PlayStation, Multi-platformGameStop Is Trying To Capitalize On PS5's Reported New Online Requirement
It appears that Sony has implemented a new feature requiring PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 owners to connect to the internet(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/playstation-users-report-new-online-license-checks-for-digital-games/1100-6539651/) every 30 days to renew the license on digital games they've purchased. Players who have stumbled into this odd feature are saying all PlayStation Store purchases made after March 2026 now feature a 30-day timer showing how long players have until they must connect to the internet and renew the game's license. Players who fail to do so within the time limit will lose the ability to play recent digital purchases until the game's license is renewed via internet connection. Sony hasn't made any official announcements about this--it's possible it could be a bug--but GameStop is already capitalizing on the bad press surrounding Sony's digital game license timers. "Play really has no limits at GameStop," the company shared in a recent X post(https://x.com/gamestop/status/2049185493791940641) referencing the PS5's 'Play Has No Limits' tagline. "We believe that games should work for players, not against them. If you own it, you should be able to play it anytime, anywhere, whether you are online or offline." Urging players to "start a real collection you can play, share, and trade," GameStop is offering a deal where customers can get a 10% discount when purchasing two to three preowned games, a 20% discount when purchasing four to five, or a whopping 30% when purchasing six or more preowned physical titles.

🎮 Multi-platformCollision Course - Arc Raiders Quest Guide
Arc Raiders(https://www.gamespot.com/games/arc-raiders/)' Riven Tides update adds a handful of quests focused on the newest map so that you can get acclimated to how it plays. But as expected, a few quests will send you to take down some older enemies, such as Collision Course, which asks you to kill a Comet and obtain a Comet Igniter. Luckily, this isn't terribly difficult to do once you know how to approach these potentially deadly ARC. Before loading into a match to kill a Comet and take its Comet Igniter, it's a good idea to bring an augment sporting a safe pocket. Once you score the Comet Igniter, make sure you extract safely with it. If you die without it in a safe pocket, you'll need to head back into a map and repeat the process. Whether you're trying to knock out Collision Course or need some Comet Igniters for crafting or projects, here's how to get your hands on them.

🎮 Multi-platformWitcher 3 Director Says His Vampire Game "Couldn't" Be Made At CD Projekt Red Or Another Established Studio
The Blood of the Dawnwalker, the vampire-themed fantasy game from a team of former Witcher developers, is shaping up to be one of 2026's exciting-looking new original games. Its director, Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, said in an interview that he doesn't think some of its new ideas would have been possible at CD Projekt Red. Tomaszkiewicz was asked by IGN(https://www.ign.com/articles/the-witcher-3-director-set-up-his-new-rpg-studio-to-make-something-meaningful) if he thought he could have made the game's "narrative sandbox" and time-loop elements at CD Projekt Red or another large studio, and he said, "I think I couldn't." "When you have the big companies which have established IPs, it's really hard to change something or do something really innovative because it's always about being same-but-new," he said. "You already know the playerbase wants almost the same, but new, in comparison to doing something really fresh and new."
