AI-powered app maker Wabi pivots to a messaging experience

Wabi, an AI startup, has launched Wabi 2.0, a platform that serves as a sophisticated AI messenger while maintaining app-building capabilities. The founder, Eugenia Kuyda, describes Wabi 2.0 as a "personal agent" that enhances user experience by integrating conversation and task management. The platform distinguishes itself by targeting AI agents with conversational and productivity features, rather than competing with traditional coding tools. Users can request tasks that the agent fulfills by generating a tailored user interface for specific needs, such as health tracking or family management. Access to Wabi 2.0 is currently limited to invite codes distributed via X.

Kazuhisa Wada, the producer of the Persona series, hinted at the possibility of remakes for Persona 1 and 2, emphasizing the importance of cultural preservation in gaming.

My FOMO over The Duskbloods not coming to PC evaporated once I actually played it

The Duskbloods is a multiplayer game exclusive to the Switch 2, which was tested in a closed network event. Players had access to only one map and six characters, with no build customization and significant input lag issues. The tutorial was incomplete, leaving many gameplay aspects unclear. The game features mechanics similar to MOBAs, where players collect Virtue points while battling AI-controlled enemies and other players. Players can recruit enemies as allies, adding a strategic element. The game has a nostalgic charm reminiscent of older titles, but it currently lacks the depth and cohesion seen in previous FromSoftware games. Director Hidetaka Miyazaki's comments suggest that the game may remain a Nintendo exclusive, similar to Bloodborne's situation.

When will ‘GTA 6’ launch on PC? What we know so far.

Grand Theft Auto VI is set to launch exclusively on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on November 19, 2026, with no PC version available at launch. A PC port is expected to be released in 2027 or later. Rockstar has not provided specific reasons for the delayed PC release, but factors such as standardized console hardware and higher per-unit revenue from consoles may influence this decision. A poll indicated that 39 percent of PC gamers are willing to wait for the PC version. Former Rockstar producer John Ricchio noted that developing for consoles first is often more manageable. Historically, Rockstar has delayed PC releases, with significant gaps between console and PC launches for previous titles like Grand Theft Auto IV, Grand Theft Auto V, and Red Dead Redemption 2.
