The Nintendo Switch 2 is finally here, launching with a massive lineup of 28 games, including Mario Kart
World, Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition, and the long-awaited Deltarune chapters.
But heads up: the screen comes with a special protective film that should NOT be removed—it's there for
safety, not as a regular screen protector.
You can add your own on top, but don’t peel off the original layer!
History was made as ZeniMax QA testers reached a tentative union contract with Microsoft, marking the company’s first
US union deal.
The contract includes a 13.5% pay raise and protections around AI use.
As one union member put it, this is “a monumental victory for all current video game workers and
for those that come after.” June is packed with big releases!
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach drops June 26 as a PlayStation 5 exclusive, promising wild new gameplay
and a star-studded cast.
The Switch 2 launch brings not just Mario Kart World, but also remasters like Bravely Default and indie
hits like Deltarune.
Plus, Dune Awakening and FBC: Firebreak are set to make waves this month.
The gaming industry faces tough times, with layoffs and rising negativity online.
But there’s hope—passion projects like Stardew Valley and Baldur’s Gate 3 remind us why we love games.
As one gamer said, “Those few games that offer something so surprising and magical; they are the hope.”
Did you know developers often sneak themselves into their own games?
From Hideo Kojima in Metal Gear to John Romero’s hidden head in Doom 2, these Easter eggs are
legendary.
Plus, keep an eye out for Dandelion Void—a survival horror game set on a spaceship overrun by a
deadly alien jungle.
It’s being called 'Project Zomboid in space' and looks absolutely terrifying!
