CAPCOM says Resident Evil 4 Remake has reached 10 million copies sold worldwide. This achievement comes about two years after its March 2023 launch. The game hit three million sales in just two days, grew to four million within a week, reached five million under four months, pushed to six million before 2023 ended, climbed to seven million at its first birthday, and reached nine million late last year.
This places Resident Evil 4 Remake seventh among all CAPCOM games ever, just ahead of Resident Evil 3 Remake, but still trailing Resident Evil Village by around one million copies. The game might eventually catch up to Resident Evil 2 Remake, which holds third place with 15 million copies sold across all platforms.

Google tells some remote workers they must return to offices or risk losing their jobs. The company gave this ultimatum to teams that were previously allowed to work from home. Internal documents show employees might face bad reviews or layoffs if they refuse. This shift happens as Google tries to save money through workforce changes. The policy affects certain teams but not all Google staff.
Google wants more in-person work because leaders think it improves collaboration. The company started offering voluntary buyouts to US workers earlier this year as part of cost-cutting plans. Some employees feel surprised since they had permission to work remotely before this change. They must either accept a hybrid schedule or leave the company...
Apple plans to make the iPhone 17 Air just 5.5mm thick. The company wants this super-thin phone to have 12GB of RAM, matching the Pro models. This would make it more powerful than regular iPhone 17 models, which might keep their current 8GB of RAM. The extra memory helps phones run multiple apps at once without slowing down. Regular models could fall behind if Apple cannot get enough memory chips.
The new Air model will replace the Plus version in Apple's lineup. Ming-Chi Kuo wrote that the iPhone 17 Air will share more with Pro models than with standard ones. He said Apple might still add 12GB to regular iPhone 17 phones if parts become available. The company needs to decide on memory amounts next month before starting mass...

Nintendo might have 6 to 8 million Switch 2 consoles ready for buyers when it launches on June 5. This would make it one of the largest console releases ever seen in gaming history. People want the new system more than Nintendo expected. Japanese customers alone sent 2.2 million requests hoping to buy the console.
Nintendo boss Shuntaro Furukawa said sorry on social media because many people who applied will not receive a Switch 2. The company works hard to make more consoles before the June launch date. American and Canadian stores started taking advance orders today after delays caused by new trade taxes. Websites for stores like Best Buy and Walmart stopped working properly when huge numbers of shoppers tried ordering at once.

TSMC showcased new packaging technologies at its Technology Symposium alongside chip announcements. The company plans to release improved versions of its current packaging methods. These advanced packages help companies like NVIDIA work around the limits of Moore's Law. Modern packaging places multiple chips on one wafer, delivering huge performance gains compared to traditional methods.
The company will introduce a mainstream CoWoS version with a 9.5x reticle size that fits 12 memory stacks. Production begins in 2027 for this option. Current CoWoS packages use a 5.5x reticle size. The jump to 9.5x marks major progress for the Taiwanese chip maker. TSMC aims to replace these packages with System-on-Wafer technology later. The firm...
In the coming years, Boeing wants to keep flying its Starliner spacecraft to the space station. CEO Kelly Ortberg shared this plan during a TV interview yesterday. He took over last year amid production problems at the company. He said Boeing works with NASA to fix issues that caused the ship to return empty without astronauts.
The empty return forced NASA to bring astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams back on a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft earlier this year. NASA said last month it still plans to certify Starliner for crew flights. The space agency has checked about 70 percent of flight data from the 2024 mission. Some problems will stay under review until later this year, before more tests happen.
Ortberg feels good about fixing...
Heart Machine plans a major update for Hyper Light Breaker on April 29, 2025. The "Buried Below" update adds Rondo, a new playable character with special abilities. Players will also find two new melee weapons, a crown called Maw, and fresh cave areas to explore.
The update completely changes how players progress through the game. You play with just one life per run. When you die, you lose your items and must restart the Overgrowth area. These changes make the game easier to start but harder to finish. Players will discover new ways to exit the Overgrowth section. The game changes character classes with a redesigned customization system and simplifies both vendors and inventory management.
