Minecraft’s next update is revealed, bringing with it wool stairs, straw beds, and a brand new biome

Mojang has confirmed that the update "Chaos Cubed" will be released on June 16, 2026, introducing Sulfur Cubes, new Sulfur Cave biomes, and geysers. The unnamed latest update features the Dappled Forest biome, inspired by autumn colors, with Poplar wood and Poplar doors that have diamond-shaped windows. An Abandoned Camp structure will be included, designed to evoke curiosity rather than provide loot. Wool stairs and wool slabs are being added, along with the potential for straw beds, which may offer temporary sleeping options without resetting spawn points. More features will be revealed before testing begins later this summer.

The Moscow City Court has ruled against the unauthorized distribution of nearly one hundred Soviet films, following a request from Mosfilm. The ruling targets the torrent tracker torrentino.com, and Mosfilm has 15 days to file a formal lawsuit for a permanent ban on the pirated content. If they do not file, the temporary protective measures will be lifted. The affected films include 94 titles, such as "War and Peace," "The Irony of Fate," and "Solaris." This action follows a prior ruling that blocked access to four Soviet films on rutor.org.

Warren Spector’s Thick As Thieves encapsulates the joys of the heist, but I’m not convinced it’ll steal my attention long-term

In Elway Manor, a master thief uses the Vistara Diamond to detect guards and navigates security measures while executing a heist. The game, Thick As Thieves, is set in an alternate early 1900s Scottish city, Kilcairn, where players aim to join the Thieves' Guild. It features two launch maps with dynamic security layouts and three difficulty levels. Stealth mechanics are crucial, with players utilizing various gadgets from the Black Market. The game has shifted to a cooperative format, allowing players to team up. After about ten hours of gameplay, some repetition may occur, but the experience remains polished with quick load times and smooth performance. The game is priced modestly, promising future content from OtherSide Entertainment.

Microsoft tests Auto SR, its AI upscaler for Xbox and Windows gaming

Microsoft has introduced a preview of Auto SR, an AI-driven upscaling technology for Xbox Insiders using the ROG Xbox Ally X handheld. This feature upgrades game output from 720p to 1440p and increases frame rates by about 30% in docked mode. Auto SR operates at the OS level, requiring no developer patches, but is limited to games that support DirectX 11 and 12, excluding titles using DirectX 9, Vulkan, and OpenGL. Currently, it is available only for the ROG Xbox Ally X and Copilot+ PCs with Snapdragon X chips, and the preview is invite-only and docked mode only. Early feedback indicates some user interface artifacts and a battery drain of 8–12% on the Ally X. A broader rollout for Windows began on April 30, 2026, but no specific consumer launch date has been announced. Auto SR is not intended for the upcoming Project Helix Xbox console, which will use AMD FSR Diamond instead.
