British game company Rebellion says their new post-apocalyptic adventure Atomfall has pulled in over 2 million players during its first month. People love bashing enemies with cricket bats - they've smacked nearly 6 million baddies already.
Players have ordered more than 250,000 beers at pubs throughout the game. They've also sipped half a million cups of tea during their adventures. Deadly rat swarms have killed gamers about 420,000 times. The most popular food choice? Tins of meat, with players gobbling down 14.1 million cans since launch.
Atomfall hit 1.5 million players during the opening weekend before growing further. Being available on Xbox Game Pass from day one helped reach this large audience. Even considering the...
NVIDIA is in the middle of President Trump's trade battle with China. The company recently scored a big win when Trump let it keep selling H20 GPUs to Chinese customers without restrictions.
UBS analyst Timothy Arcuri sees good news for NVIDIA in Taiwan's export numbers. Taiwan shipped $12.03 billion worth of data processing equipment in March 2025, up 20.6% from February. This followed Taiwan's strongest February exports in over ten years. If April follows normal patterns, Taiwan might see 58% growth compared to last quarter. This could mean NVIDIA's data center sales grow about 18% to $42 billion this quarter.
Some caution exists as Citi just cut its forecast for NVIDIA's GPU sales—down 3% for 2025 and 5% for 2026. They worry about...
Google fired hundreds of workers after offering voluntary buyouts earlier this year. The cuts affected staff from the Android, Chrome, and Pixel teams. Google combined these groups under a single Pixels and Devices department.
The company confirmed these job cuts, saying they want to become more agile and efficient. Google hasn't shared which specific teams lost the most people. Regular users won't notice any changes because all planned products remain on schedule for release this year.
Google started reorganizing things a few months back, with voluntary buyouts offered in January. The company had merged Android and Chrome with the Pixel division under Rick Osterloh, creating a massive team with over 20,000 employees. They appear to...
Toys For Bob creative director Paul Yan chatted with Canadian Guy Eh about what's happening since the studio went independent. He described their current project as "big and ambitious" that "pushes our craft to new heights." When asked which series they'd love to work on, Yan quickly mentioned Banjo-Kazooie.
He said Team Xbox has been a great partner with interesting characters his team could have fun with. "The honey bear is the first one that comes to mind. I think we all can agree Banjo's been hibernating long enough," Yan remarked. Their experience reviving Crash Bandicoot and Spyro makes them perfect candidates for bringing back the beloved bear-and-bird duo.
The studio became independent over a year ago but continues...
The PlayStation 5 Pro will make Indiana Jones and the Great Circle look amazing with native 4K resolution. Sony just announced that MachineGames' adventure masterpiece will take full advantage of the upgraded console when it launches on April 17th. Players can expect better frame rates, sharper visuals, and advanced ray tracing on the Pro model.
The standard PS5 version still delivers impressive performance. Gamers will enjoy a stable 60 frames per second with high-quality graphics. The game uses the console's SSD for super-fast loading times with no interruptions during gameplay. Both versions feature special DualSense controller support with haptic feedback and adaptive triggers that respond to your actions.
The controller's...
The Minecraft movie has become another mega-hit video game adaptation that nobody saw coming. After its release, daily active Minecraft players jumped 9% compared to the previous week. Nintendo Switch sales of the game climbed 25% before the movie hit theaters, with another 8% boost after the opening weekend.
This pattern happens with almost every game adaptation. Whether critics love or hate them, these movies make people want to play the games. The Borderlands film bombed with reviewers and audiences alike, but it still pushed game sales higher. A hefty 90% discount on Borderlands 3 during the same period helped matters.
TV shows deliver similar results. The Fallout series sparked renewed interest in Fallout 4, and The Last of Us on...
Apple might release its delayed Personalized Siri feature earlier than expected. The New York Times reports the company aims to launch it this fall instead of next year, as previously announced. Apple has sped up development after facing criticism for pushing back several AI features.
The revamped Siri will appear alongside iOS 19, which promises a major visual redesign inspired by visionOS. Apple employees feel confident the feature will be ready for the fall release. This updated assistant will handle tasks like editing photos and sending them to friends upon request.
Siri has fallen behind competitors like Google Assistant and ChatGPT in the artificial intelligence race. Apple teamed up with OpenAI to temporarily add ChatGPT...
MSI has started making a brand new MPOWER motherboard that works with AMD chips. The company hasn't released an MPOWER board in ages - the last one was their Z790 model for Intel processors.
This fresh design supports the AM5 socket for AMD Ryzen CPUs. Unlike the earlier brown and silver version, MSI went back to their classic black and yellow colors from the original MPOWER series. The board comes in a compact mATX size, perfect for smaller PC builds.
Tech fans will love that it has two DDR5 memory slots that can hold up to 128GB RAM. There's an M.2 slot right beside these memory slots, plus more M.2 slots under the large heatsink covering the chipset. The board includes several fan connectors but only has two SATA ports for...
Spain's Tequila Works shut its doors last November due to money troubles, just weeks after it canceled a game project and fired staff. A Spanish auction site has started selling everything the company owned. Bidders can grab famous titles like Deadlight, Rime, GYLT, and The Invisible Hours, plus unfinished games like Brawler Crawler, Dungeon Tour, and The Ancient Mariner.
The company name itself is also up for grabs. Anybody who buys these assets takes all the risks that come with them, and they'll need to sign legal papers before seeing all the details. Rime and GYLT are super popular already, with bids reaching €15,500 each after 150 offers. The auction runs until May 14.
Rime was the studio's biggest hit during their 15-year run...
