In the last days of September, X turned into a parade of impossible crossovers. Steve from Minecraft flies over the capital of Elden Ring, Mario from Super Mario 64 triple-jumps away from Margit's swings, and in GTA 5 Steve holds off the cops and a tank with a diamond sword. In Red Dead Redemption 2, a block of Minecraft TNT sits in the middle of Valentine, while someone runs around Riverwood in Skyrim with a rocket launcher from Quake. The Elden Ring clip alone racked up 22.5 million views.

Concord took years to develop and, according to press reports, cost hundreds of millions of dollars. The shooter’s servers shut down just 14 days after launch, and its peak concurrent player count on Steam was only 697. Sony announced refunds for buyers, then closed Firewalk, the studio behind the game, which employed around 170 people. Concord is the most striking example, but far from the only one: expensive live-service games are increasingly shutting down just weeks or months after launch. We look at the cost of these failures, why publishers keep investing in the model, and what sometimes forces them to reconsider their plans.

The news about what's included in the GTA 6 collector's edition sparked a new wave of discussion among fans. Some were surprised that the game itself isn't part of the bundle, while others criticized the high price of the merch set. That said, no one doubts that fans will quickly snap up the entire print run. Meanwhile, more and more information is coming out about what awaits us in the modern version of Vice City.

When 12 terabytes of old files from Valve's systems spilled online in late August, the headlines instantly promised Half-Life 3, "a decade of cancelled games," and stolen source code. More than a week later, with enthusiasts having gone through the archive in detail, the picture turned out both smaller and more interesting. Here's what's really in this leak — far from just Valve's games — and what turned out to be wishful thinking.

The summer of 2026 brought two major moments for GTA 6. First, on June 18, Rockstar Games launched the full marketing campaign for GTA 6: the studio announced the pre-order date, revealed the official cover art for the first time, and updated the logo. On June 25, pre-orders began opening across regions, revealing prices, editions, and bonuses. Then, in late August, Rockstar finally showed the game in motion with the "An Extended Look" gameplay presentation — its first major showcase in nearly a year and a half. We have gathered everything currently known about Grand Theft Auto 6 in one place — from its release date and price to the map, characters, gameplay, and online mode. Some details have been officially confirmed by Rockstar, some come from press previews, and others from leaks and datamining; we identify those separately.

In September 2026, Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon resigned, warning of the danger he sees in AI labs' pursuit of systems smarter than humans. He accused developers of "gambling with our lives" by making models more capable without knowing whether they can keep them under control. Safety specialists have voiced similar concerns: over the past few years, some have left OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google, citing the rapid pace of development and insufficient attention to risks. We examine what concerns them, how much influence they had over management decisions, and how the companies have responded.
