Forza Horizon 6 is one of several games set to headline a new Developer Direct livestream from Xbox, and it looks like the game's release date may have leaked early. According to the leaks, Forza Horizon 6 will reportedly launch on May 19, while the Premium Edition of the game will allow buyers to start playing four days early on May 15. Xbox Infinite--an Xbox news site based in Saudi Arabia--posted an image of what it claims is an in-game announcement from Forza Horizon 5, detailing the Forza Horizon 6 release date and DLC that will be available in the Premium Edition. VGC corroborated the claims, saying that its sources had confirmed that this is the correct release date for the game. According to the image, the Premium Edition will offer early access, VIP membership, car packs, an exclusive Ferrari, and post-launch car pack DLC. 🟩| عاجل وحصري 🚨🚨 لعبة [ Forza Horizon 6 ] ستصدر في 19 مايو 2026 • إعلان ظهر داخل اللعبة pic.twitter.com/vW1RVI7roP — XBOX INFINITE (@XBOXF10) January 14, 2026 Forza Horizon 6 was officially revealed ahead of the Xbox showcase at Tokyo Game Show last year, and the next chapter in the racing series will see the Horizon Festival move to Japan.

The canceled open-world game Wild may get a spiritual successor of sorts from Deus Ex: Human Revolution developer Eidos Montreal. According to Insider Gaming, the unannounced title is codenamed P11 and features intriguing likenesses to the canned Ubisoft game. The report also states that P11 has been in development since 2019, with Unreal Engine 5 powering the project. However, Insider Gaming adds there have been "significant setbacks" for the game. In 2024, Embracer Group canned a Deus Ex game in development and cut 97 people from Eidos Montreal. The layoffs didn't stop there, either. Last year, another 75 employees lost their jobs at the studio. As for P11, an X user named Timur222 found that an Eidos Montreal employee on LinkedIn refers to the project as a "AAAA" game. Insider Gaming initially thought that Embracer may have somehow acquired the Wild rights from Ubisoft because this project looks so similar. Wild was revealed in 2014, showing players riding a bear and even assuming the control of an eagle and rabbit. The PlayStation exclusive was reportedly canceled in 2021.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Hytale is finally out now in early access following 10 years of development and a cancellation. Like other early-access games, Hytale isn't finished and may contain bugs and other oddities as developer Hypixel updates and improves the game over time. The studio has now outlined what's to come in the immediate future, and more of what's on tap on a longer-term horizon. For the "first few months," Hypixel will release updates "quickly and frequently" to address the "backlog of obvious construction sites" that the team wants to address. For anyone just catching up, Hypixel purchased Hytale from Riot in November 2025, and in the eight weeks since, the team did what it could to get Hytale out, but this also means the team didn't get to every item it wanted to fix or address. Looking further out, Hypixel said it plans to release "larger, more bespoke updates" and new features for Hytale. This will include official minigames, with development set to begin on these "in the coming months." These minigames will add "systems and features that expand gameplay," Hypixel said.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Rockstar Games has removed a fan-made mission simulating the assassination of Charlie Kirk from its popular online crime sim Grand Theft Auto Online, with the publisher even banning the conservative activist's name to prevent similar missions from appearing. As reported by IGN, developer Rockstar North introduced a new feature in the A Safehouse in the Hills update on December 10, allowing GTA Online players to create and share unofficial missions within the game. Not long after the tool was released, however, users began populating the mission directory with recreations of Charlie Kirk's assassination, with one titled "We are Charlie Kirk" being perhaps the most prominent of them. Now, according to a January 13 Variety report, Rockstar Games has removed this and added Kirk's name to its repository of banned words. Sources told Variety that the "profanity filter" the company refers to internally will be renamed to underscore that the tool isn't used only to flag obscenities but also various harmful content, too.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Sid Meier's Civilization 7 Arcade Edition will be added to the Apple Arcade game catalog on February 5 alongside a smattering of other new games. This new version of the game will be playable on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and there does not appear to be plans for an Android port at this time. Released last February for PC and consoles, Civilization 7 is a 4X strategy game where players guide a civilization through several different ages of history. Like the mobile port of Civilization 6, Civilization 7 Arcade Edition's content is comparable to the PC and console versions of the game, so this isn't some sort of radically inferior spin-off. The most novel thing about Civilization 7 Arcade Edition is that its UI has been specifically tailored to support touch controls on iPhone and iPad. Currently, the closest you can get to that is using the touchscreen for your cursor on a PC handheld or Nintendo Switch 2.Continue Reading at GameSpot

The launch of Hytale in early access yesterday saw over 400,000 people watching the game on Twitch. There is also speculation that the Minecraft-inspired sandbox game has reached almost 3 million sales, though there's confusion around that number currently. PC Gamer reported on the Hytale's popularity on Twitch, citing 420,000 viewers on January 13. At the time of publication, Hytale has around 112,000 viewers on Twitch, putting it only behind games like League of Legends and Grand Theft Auto V. In addition, a massive rumored concurrent-players for Hytale has been making the rounds, though the figure--2.8 million--seems too good to be true. It all stems from a stream posted by Hytale News on YouTube. GameSpot has reached out to developer Hypixel Studios about the statistic.The Best Confirmed Hytale Mods So FarSee More Keep in mind PUBG holds the Steam record for most concurrent players with over 3.2 million people in January 2018. So, it's seemingly hard to believe Hytale is close to that achievement within 24 hours of release, especially considering you need to download the game from the Hytale website.Continue Reading at GameSpot

The Minecraft-like adventure game Hytale is out now in early access, and it's been a bumpy, unusual road to release. Here is a quick primer on Hytale's lengthy development, cancellation, and resurrection, culminating in its release on January 13.Table of Contents [hide] * What is Hytale? What is Hytale? Hytale is an adventure game that "blends the freedom of a sandbox with the momentum of an RPG." The game is set in a procedurally generated world that has dungeons to explore and creatures to interact with. The game has Minecraft-like stylized graphics. The game launched on January 13 in early access with "core" systems, including exploration, combat, building, minigames, and community-run servers. The game will expand over time with more features.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Cygames, the developer and publisher behind the popular series of Granblue Fantasy video games, just opened an AI-focused studio. In response to the backlash toward this announcement, Cygames put out a message trying to assuage players' fears about generative AI's use in its games. The message isn't very reassuring, though. This kerfuffle started on January 9, when a post on Cygames' Japanese website revealed that Cygames AI Studio had been established. The announcement explains that this new studio will research and develop its own models and provide services to others while drawing on Cygames' game development history and expertise. The use of artificial intelligence, specifically generative AI, has become a very hot-button issue in the video game industry as of late. Games like Arc Raiders and Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 have faced backlash over their use of the technology, and each new AI-related gaming announcement online usually draws the ire of fans.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Actor Ron Perlman is known in Fallout fandom for delivering the now-iconic voice line, "War. War never changes." Perlman will forever be associated with this line and Fallout in general, and now the actor has revealed how he was compensated for the original Fallout game. "They invited me to do the very first Fallout and gave me $40 and a sandwich," he said in a recent appearance on The Joe Vulpis Podcast, as reported by Dexerto. The original Fallout game, which was made by Interplay, was released in 1997. It wasn't until some time later that Perlman became aware of the phenomenon that became Fallout.Continue Reading at GameSpot

The big 3.0 update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons has gone live earlier than expected, bringing with it several major upgrades to the popular--and cozy--game ahead of its Switch 2 release on January 15. If you own it and haven't visited your island getaway in quite some time, you'll be prompted on the Switch screen to update your game. Alternatively, pressing the "+" button on the game's tile and selecting "Software Update" will start the process. Official patch notes have not yet been released, but Nintendo previously outlined what players can expect from the 3.0 update. Villagers can now catch some Zs on Slumber Islands; there's the new Resort Hotel building you can visit, and Tom Bell is also present with a scheme to make some extra Bells. Home storage capacity has been significantly increased, new Nintendo items can be purchased, and Resetti's Reset Service lets you clear out flowers, furniture, and more in bulk from your island. On top of all that, there'll also be collaborations with Splatoon, The Legend of Zelda, and Lego.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Arc Raiders is getting a very short update in the middle of January, but it's one that was needed to nerf the power of two weapons: the Trigger 'Nade and Kettle. Embark Studios acknowledged the issues with both when laying out the details for Arc Raiders' 1.11.0 update. According to Embark, the Kettle's maximum fire rate of 600 was "only realistically reachable by players using macros." In other words, it played right into the hands of cheaters who were using outside software for an unfair advantage in the game. After the update, the Kettle can only reach a maximum fire rate of 450. Similarly, Embark noted that the Trigger 'Nade was dominating PvP battles and players used it more than any other grenade in the game. The nerf for this weapon is limiting the radius of damage to the center of the explosion and increasing the time it takes to detonate to 1.5 seconds to give opposing players a chance to react when it's deployed. This was also meant to make it harder for players to use it as a "trigger-in-air" grenade.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Rockstar's battle with the The Independent Workers' Union of Great Britain went to court last week, in an effort to determine whether more than 30 employees accused of "gross misconduct" were in fact unfairly dismissed. While Rockstar accused the fired developers of sharing important confidential information, it seems that at least some of that information has now been made public via the court case--including some very early details on what may be GTA 6 Online. People Make Games has been reporting on the faceoff between Rockstar Games and the IWGB since the start, and recently released a video covering the court proceedings so far. As part of the preliminary hearing, Rockstar's legal representative mentioned a "top-secret element of GTA 6," which he said was so confidential he didn't feel confident speaking about it out loud, instead asking the judge to read it in private. Despite the supposedly top secret nature of this evidence, People Make Games was able to make an appointment to view the documents, as Rockstar had not applied for reporting restrictions to be placed upon the evidence. He has now reproduced those messages in full, showing an apparent conversation by a fired employee who was frustrated at not being able to book time off after Rockstar started cracking down on the number of employees being granted leave at one time.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Roblox has begun the global rollout of its facial age-check system, which will be required for all players who want to access in-game chat. The rollout has not gone smoothly so far, with some players' ages being wildly miscalculated, others finding workarounds, and some flat out refusing to engage with the verification system due to privacy concerns. Roblox's age verification system first started rolling out in Australia, New Zealand, and the Netherlands in early December, and now will be extended to all regions where chat is available. The AI-powered age check, which estimates a user's age by analyzing their face, must be completed to unlock chat features. Users over 13 have the option of verifying their age using ID instead. The estimated ages are used by Roblox to lock off chat with users who are outside of a person's age range--for example, a 13-year-old can chat with users between the ages of nine and 17, while a 16-year-old can chat with users aged 13-20. The new age check is designed to safeguard children from predators, following intense scrutiny on Roblox from legislators, the media, and concerned parents. However, users have quickly proven how easily it can be bypassed.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Nearly a decade on from launch, Pokemon Go continues to add new features and quality-of-life improvements. Following the big leveling revamp back in October, the game has now introduced another highly requested feature: Remote Trades. Just as Remote Raids allow you to participate in a Raid Battle from anywhere in the world, Remote Trades allow you to exchange Pokemon with another player, regardless of where you both are. However, the feature comes with a few caveats, most notable among them being that it's locked behind a new friendship level called Forever Friends. Here's everything you need to know about Remote Trades, including how it works, what Pokemon are ineligible, and how to become Forever Friends with another player.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Battle Royale: Deluxe Edition Volume 1 $44 (was $55) | Releases January 27 Preorder at Amazon Battle Royale has been a controversial IP since its first release, starting life as a book and then becoming a cult-classic movie. The franchise's success in print and on the big screen led to an inevitable manga adaptation, which returns later this month in a snazzy Deluxe Edition format. The first volume of the Battle Royale: Deluxe Edition will be available starting January 27, and preorders are available at Amazon--and best of all, it's currently discounted to $44 ahead of launch, saving you 20% off its standard $55 MSRP. Battle Royale: Deluxe Edition Volume 1 $44 (was $55) | Releases January 27 Battle Royale: Deluxe Edition Volume 1 is a 604-page, leather-bound hardcover omnibus featuring the first three volumes of the original manga series that ran from 2000 to 2005. It's unclear if the Deluxe Edition's publisher Yen Press is including a new--hopefully more faithful--translation or the controversial script from the English editions published by TokyoPop. While the Japanese version of the manga closely follows the original novel's plot, the English adaptation--handled by veteran comic book writer Keith Griffen--made substantial changes, resulting in several major plot holes in the later volumes. Either way, considering TokyoPop's releases have been out of print for several years, this new Deluxe Edition will be the easiest way to read the manga adaptation of the wildly popular franchise. Volume 1 launches on January 27, and we expect the next volumes in the series to go up for preorder in the near future. Preorder at Amazon Battle Royale would receive several sequel manga series over the years, but most of these are also hard to find due to their limited print runs. The most recent series in the IP is Battle Royale: Enforcers, which began serialization in 2022. Set decades after the original series, Enforcers takes place in the same universe. After a government artificial intelligence reactivates the infamous Program 68, the unruly kids of Daitoa Academy's Class F find themselves divided into squads, given weapons, and set loose to fight each other to the death. So far, four paperback volumes of the series have been released and translated into English.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Meta has shut down three of Oculus Studios' internal developers, new reporting has revealed. Twisted Pixel Games, Sanzaru Games, and Armature Studio have all been impacted. Outlets suchs as The New York Times indicated that cuts were coming to Meta's Reality Labs business, which encompasses first-party VR game development. On Tuesday, developers from the three aforementioned studios posted on X and other social media websites, indicating that they had lost their jobs. UploadVR confirmed that the entirety of Twisted Pixel Games, Sanzaru Games, and Armature Studios were impacted as part of this round of Meta layoffs. In a statement to Polygon, Meta's Tracy Clayton says these cuts were made so the company could focus on Wearables like its Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses. Continue Reading at GameSpot

So much time has passed between Fallout games that modern players may believe the lighthearted comedic tone of Fallout 4, Fallout '76, and Prime Video's Fallout series were the way the franchise has always been portrayed. But Chris Avellone--one of the designers of Fallout 2 and a writer for Fallout: New Vegas--believes that Bethesda has lost sight of the way that the games were originally intended to be received. When asked on X whether Bethesda hates the franchise, Avellone responded, "They just don't fully understand its roots and arguably, don't care--they own the franchise, and they just want to do their spin on Fallout and make that the norm. This usually translates into a colorful, shallow theme park (with some interesting DLC exceptions, like Far Harbor, Point Lookout--and I was one of the ones who liked The Pitt)--still, theme parks are fun for some folks, so if people enjoy it, that's fine with me." This usually translates into a colorful, shallow theme park (with some interesting DLC exceptions, like Far Harbor, Point Lookout - and I was one of the ones who liked The Pitt) – still, theme parks are fun for some folks, so if people enjoy it, that’s fine with me. — Chris Avellone (@ChrisAvellone) January 9, 2026 Avellone went on to explain that he doesn't hate Bethesda, and he praised the publisher's open-world games before calling out its weaknesses regarding its linear stories and "their inability to understand how to use the Speech skill. But every developer has their pros and cons."Continue Reading at GameSpot

The Ghost in the Shell Legacy Edition Manga Box Set $112 (was $140) | Releases February 17 Preorder at Amazon Ghost in the Shell is widely considered one of the greatest cyberpunk anime movies of all time, but before its big screen debut, it was a hit manga series. Created by Masamune Shirow, the manga has been around since 1989, and in 2026, the ultimate edition of it will be released. Available to preorder for $112 (was $140) ahead of its release on February 17, The Ghost in the Shell Legacy Edition Box Set brings the original Japanese manga to the West in a high-quality and uncensored package. The Ghost in the Shell Legacy Edition Manga Box Set $112 (was $140) | Releases February 17 The new Legacy Edition is a deluxe hardcover box set of the Ghost in the Shell manga and its sequels, The Ghost in the Shell 1.5: Human Error Processor and The Ghost in the Shell 2.0: Man-Machine Interface. This reprint includes the original Japanese version of the manga, with restored scenes and artwork that Shirow himself edited out of the western release. Each book comes in a premium slipcase featuring brand-new illustrations by Shirow. The box set also includes a collection of multicolored Fuchikoma robot stickers, a double-sided poster with Shirow explaining his artistic process, and 10 posters from the rare, limited-edition 1997 Cyberdelics release. Each poster is 10 inches wide and features etched metallic paper, vinyl stock, and holographic spot gloss. They come rolled and packed inside a protective box. Preorder at Amazon If you don't feel like waiting for this collector's edition, you can pick up the Ghost in the Shell: Fully Compiled hardcover set for $31.71 (was $55). While this is the censored version, it's still a hard-hitting collection of manga with plenty of graphic violence and mature themes at its core. The hardcover is over 800 pages in size, and it includes all the manga series, the "lost" stories from Ghost in the Shell 2: Man-Machine Interface, notes on the series, all of the original cover pages, and cover art that Shirow illustrated specially for it. Set in a not-so-distant future, Ghost in the Shell follows the cyborg Major Motoko Kusanagi and other members of the counter-terrorist group Section 9. The cyberpunk manga examines how crime has evolved in this new age of brain jacks, neural chips, military drones, and optical camo. The manga was adapted into a film in 1995, which remains a landmark piece of animation that influenced a generation of anime and Western filmmakers alike, including the Matrix trilogy. If you're interested in checking out the Ghost in the Shell film, it made the leap to 4K a few years ago. This version includes an audio commentary, behind-the-scenes featurettes, and the original theatrical trailer. The film spawned its own unique sequels, spin-offs, and reboots, including Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence and the acclaimed Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex anime series. The series even got a live action adaptation of the original film in 2017 starring Scarlet Johansen. While the film received middling reviews, it at least captured some of the anime and manga's signature visuals. Continue Reading at GameSpot

Hellblade developer Ninja Theory announced Project Mara in 2020, but it may not be going forward--and that might not be a very surprising thing. The game was described as an "experimental title that explores new ways of storytelling." Now, reporter Jez Corden has said the game was "only ever a concept" and was not guaranteed to be seen through to release anyway. He added: "It could be developed into a game some day, or evolve into something else." In 2020, Ninja Theory said Project Mara would be a "real-world and grounded representation of mental terror." The description continued: "Based on real lived experience accounts and in-depth research, our aim is to recreate the horrors of the mind as accurately and realistically as possible."Continue Reading at GameSpot
