The April 3 Steam client update contains explicit references to a 'Framerate Estimator' in a store UI JSON file, indicating Valve's plans for this tool.

X's new AI-powered auto-translate option will enable users worldwide to read posts from other regions, enhancing accessibility and engagement across diverse languages.

The official X account for Starsand Island stated that the removal was due to 'insufficient verification during the planning stage of a minigame within this game.'

Borderlands Mobile promises four classes: The Summoner, Exo-Tank, Outrider, and Assassin. However, only The Summoner is available now; the rest are listed as 'coming soon.'

I haven't played Crimson Desert enough, but we had everything that I've seen from Crimson Desert in the plans for that game.

Microsoft seems more determined than ever to combine Xbox and Windows - to the point that its next-gen Xbox, codenamed Project Helix, will play PC games too. Today, we learned Helix will go alpha in 2027. But the company isn't waiting for Helix before it points Windows gamers in the Xbox direction.
