Toby Fox announced that professional testers are currently familiarizing themselves with Deltarune's Chapter 5, with formal testing starting on April 1st. The quality assurance for the Japanese translation is expected to finish in April. Most of the development team is currently focused on fixing bugs and translation issues rather than developing Chapter 5. The testing phase will last an unspecified duration, requiring console approvals and additional preparations before release. The gap between the first and second chapters was three years, and the wait for the dual release of chapters three and four was nearly four years, but the timeline for Chapter 5's release is expected to be shorter. It is speculated that there may be seven chapters in total. The first two chapters are available for free on Steam.

Microsoft is reducing the number of entry points for its AI assistant, Copilot, in Windows 11, scaling back features in applications like Photos, Widgets, Notepad, and the Snipping Tool. This decision aims to create more meaningful AI experiences for users. Pavan Davuluri emphasized the importance of intentionality in AI interactions. A Pew Research study indicates that as of June 2025, half of U.S. adults are more concerned than excited about AI. Microsoft has previously abandoned plans for broader Copilot integrations and postponed the launch of the AI-powered memory feature, Windows Recall, due to privacy concerns. User feedback is influencing Microsoft's AI strategy, and additional enhancements to Windows 11 will include taskbar repositioning, improved control over system updates, faster File Explorer performance, and a better Widgets interface.

The 2017 survival horror game Darkwood is known for its unsettling atmosphere and innovative gameplay, despite its top-down perspective. A sequel is in development by Ice-Pick Lodge, not the original creators, Acid Wizard Studio. One of the new projects from the game's co-creators is Hoarder, a cleaning simulation game where players declutter a house once occupied by a hoarder. The game features structured gameplay with checklists and quest markers, but later introduces a challenging basement environment. The horror genre has seen increased creativity from indie studios, with titles like Iron Lung and Creature Kitchen appealing to a broader audience. Players are encouraged to add Hoarder to their Steam wishlists, though a release date has not been announced.
