In today's Daily Fix:Star Wars Outlaws got a huge update that brought some quality-of-life improvements, and even removed an aspect of the gameplay. Many gamers complained about Outlaws' stealth elements, so Ubisoft decided to make it a lot more forgiving. In missions where you previously could not alert the enemy, you can now go guns blazing, and you won't "fail" the mission. There's also some gunplay improvements and other things, so check out IGN.com for the full patch notes. In other news, CD Projekt Red isn't working on a PS5 Pro update for Cyberpunk 2077. In a response to a tweet, CDPR confirmed they aren't currently working on an update (though it doesn't mean one won't come at some point), and it's likely the developer is focusing on new games, like the next Cyberpunk or Witcher titles. And finally, don't expect a Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth 'Intergrade' update like FF7 Remake got. The game's director confirmed the company would rather focus on Part 3 rather than DLC for the existing game.

And not only that, Nintendo was awarded around $15 million. In other news, Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth has finally hit Steam, where it debuted at number 3.

In today's Daily Fix:We're getting a "next-gen" update for GTA 5 on PC before we get GTA 6...which honestly has been a long time coming. The PC version of Grand Theft Auto 5 should now be on par—graphically—with the Xbox Series X and PS5 counterparts. Of course, no word yet on a new GTA 6 trailer. In entertainment news, Amazon MGM Studios now has full creative control over James Bond. Long-time franchise producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G.

In other news, Xbox's Phil Spencer seemingly concedes Xbox's place in the current Console Wars.

In today's Daily Fix: Elden Ring Nightreign's network tests have had a rough start. Players trying to get into the multiplayer-centric spinoff weren't able to in some cases.

In today's Daily Fix:Grand Theft Auto 6 is poised to be the biggest gaming release in year, but so far a PC release has not been confirmed. This comes despite sales of PC ports of major Triple-A games increasing. GTA 6 publisher Take-Two has recently hinted that the game will come to PC, but could only confirm a current-gen console release...for now. In other news, PlayStation Network went down for a whole day over the weekend, and despite giving subscribers 5 free days of the service, gamers want to know exactly what happened. Many cite the 2011 outtage and the theft of user data as the main reason. And finally, Dragon Quest 12 is coming...some day. Square Enix confirmed that work on the title is still ongoing despite the deaths of character designer Akira Toriyama and composer Koichi Sugiyama, and some shake-ups with project leadership.…
In today's Daily Fix:WB Games has had a rough year. They had a dud with Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, which burned a $200 million hole in the company's wallet. Recently, MultiVersus was announced to be shutting down, and Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions did not live up to the franchise hype. On the DC front, Monolith's troubled Wonder Woman game is apparently stuck in development hell, but Rocksteady may be working on a new single-player Batman Arkham game.

According to the Take-Two financial earnings call that took place today, at the time of this recording, the parent company is confident that GTA 6 will hit its release date of Fall 2025. So that means rumors of a delay are just that: rumors. At least as of right now. But IGN spoke with Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick just before the financial report, and he said; “Look, there's always a risk of slippage and I think as soon as you say words like absolutely, you jinx things. So we feel really good about it." We of course probed a bit more, asking him for an update on the development of #GTA6 and how things are looking over at Rockstar Games, to which he responded: “I think the game is eagerly anticipated both internally and externally. We know that Rockstar seeks perfection. I never claim success before it occurs. I'm fond of saying arrogance is the enemy of continued success, so we're all running scared and looking over our shoulders and we know that the competition is not asleep. Our whole organization is super excited." The competition is definitely not asleep, just merely waiting for Rockstar to make a move so that they can get out of the way of one of the most anticipated games of the year. The CEO of EA recently said he was willing to delay the next Battlefield to the next fiscal year just to avoid #GrandTheftAuto6.…
In today's Daily Fix:Nintendo's president has commented on the Switch 2 price at an inverstor meeting. Sorry, no pricing was actually revealed, but he knows consumers want something affordable. The original Switch launched in 2017 at $299 USD, and it's widely assumed the Switch 2 will cost more than that. But how much more? Let us know what you think is too much in the comments. In other news, EA CEO Andrew Wilson had thoughts on why Dragon Age: The Veilguard wasn't the gaming touchstone they hoped it would be, and we're not sure he's taking away the right lessons here. And finally, in movies news, there's a new Anaconda movie coming, and of course Jack Black announces the new cast with a song.…
In today's Daily Fix:Microsoft has a big month ahead for Game Pass, as the highly-anticipated RPG, Avowed, hits the service for Ultimate subscribers. The game has been in development for more than five years and is set within the Pillars of Eternity universe. Madden NFL 25 also hits the service via EA Play, Another Crab's Treasure returns to the service via the Standard tier, and more are coming in this first wave of games. In Nintendo news, the company is seeing struggling hardware sales of their nearly eight-year-old Switch, but that's to be expected considering they just announced the Switch 2. However, the Switch has already sold around 150 million units, so its legacy is safely cemented as one of the best-selling consoles of all time. And finally, a new Helldivers update brings with it a new Warbond and...a shovel?…
In today's Daily Fix:Hot off the Nintendo Switch 2 reveal, which his leaked information proved to be correct, NateTheHate is back with another one: Sony's next State of Play will happen next week.

In today's Daily Fix:A popular patch for Bloodborne was hit with the DMCA copyright attack from Sony. The patch, which only runs on the emulated version of the game on PC, offered smooth 60fps gameplay—something fans have been clamoring for since the game was released back in 2015. So far, Sony has made no mention of any enhancements for the base game or a remaster for PS5 or PC, but this takedown notice has fueled some speculation that a remaster running at 60 frames is on the way. In other news, Forza Horizon 5 will be coming to PS5 later this year. This is the latest in a string of first-party Microsoft games that were once exclusive to Xbox now coming to PlayStation and Nintendo consoles. A Switch 2 port of the game is also rumored. And finally, WB's Smash Bros-like platform fighter MultiVersus is shutting down. Season 5 will be the final season for that game. The new season begins next week and will run through May, afterwhich online play will be disabled.…
In today's Daily Fix:Layoffs have hit BioWare as the company restructures to focus on the next Mass Effect game. Some of the staff from Dragon Age: The Veilguard have reportedly been let go, while others have been moved to other teams. Dragon Age: The Veilguard apparently did not meet financial expectations from BioWare, but the game did achieve critical success. IN other news, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 50-series cards are sold out everwhere, but gamers with deep pockets can find them on eBay...for three times the price. Some of the 5090 cards are going for as much as $6,000, way up from the MSRP of $2K. And finally, the PlayStation anniversary themes for the PS5 are going away, but maybe temporarily. Sony is looking to keep them on your system for good if you want them, and maybe this will open up the path for more custom themes like on the PS3 and PS4.…

Leadership at Sony is getting a shake-up, with a new Sony CEO announced, and the head of Sony Interactive being confirmed.

In today's Daily Fix:A new coming to Grand Theft Auto 5 hopes to give gamers a taste of Grand Theft Auto 6. YouTuber Dark Space is using GTA 5 assets to bring GTA 6's map (or at least what Rockstar has shown of it) to life ahead of the actual release of GTA 6. GTA publisher Take-Two has been very litigious regarding GTA mods, so who knows how long this project will last. In other news, the update for Baldur's Gate 3 that accidentally went live earlier this week is now ready for testing. BG3 fans can sign up for the stress test at Larian's website. There's also an update to Pokémon Home: gamers who finish their pokédexes are getting Shiny Pokémon.And of course, our thoughts are with the LA fire victims.
