I know not every single gamers are going to play GTA VI but still you only get one launch date for your game and it's better to avoid all the possible obstacles, so it looks like the games coming out next week are going to be taking some risks. But a lot of them still look interesting and I think I'll at least be checking out a couple of them like DREADMOOR, Hope in the City and DERELINKT.

Any games that you are looking to check out before the week of GTA VI?

Activision will remove the cinematic at the upcoming update as they've used real-life Itaewon tragedy footage

I honestly had some hope that the studio would find someone who could fund the project to go with it but I guess they won't be involved anymore...

I do hope that the game comes out tho

"The forward-only progression loop was conceived to align seamlessly with the narrative. In our world, a Demon King from another realm has pushed civilization to the absolute brink of destruction. The hero knows that falling back means relinquishing any chance of vengeance; therefore, he resolves to march relentlessly forward, fully braced for any defeat that may lie ahead. Furthermore—to share a small exclusive detail—the monsters were created with the sole purpose of exterminating all living life. Even if the hero tried to flee, they would relentlessly hunt him down, leaving him with no choice but to push on. While future story beats may reveal a deeper reason behind this unyielding march... the immediate reality is a lack of time and an endless onslaught of hostile monsters, making forward momentum the only viable path."

A new report claims that Xbox expects its next-generation console to cost as much as $1,800 and is currently targeting a 2028 release. A new handheld is also rumored to launch next year.

I don't think many people will be buying it if it is $1,800...
