Death Stranding 2 is the first Decima game with Ray Tracing on PC

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach will feature Ray Tracing effects on PC, making it the first title using the Decima engine to support this technology. The integration of Ray Tracing by Nixxes will enhance visual fidelity through improved reflections and ambient occlusion. These features were not included in the initial PC specifications, indicating increased CPU and GPU demands. The game will feature returning characters Norman Reedus, Léa Seydoux, and Troy Baker, as well as new additions Elle Fanning, Shioli Kutsuna, and director George Miller. It will offer features such as uncapped framerates, ultrawide monitor support, DualSense controller compatibility, and various PC upscalers. The release date is set for March 19th, with pre-orders available but no review codes yet provided.

Microsoft’s “most significant change to the Windows keyboard” in 30 years gets a slap in the face from a daring developer

A third-party developer has created a tool called NoCopilotKey that allows users of Windows 11 Copilot+ PCs to remap the dedicated Copilot key back to its original function as the right-side CTRL key. Microsoft introduced the dedicated Copilot key in 2024, claiming it was a significant change in keyboard design, but later suspended the option to remap the key to avoid bugs. Users have expressed mixed feelings about the Copilot key, with some forgetting its function and preferring the traditional CTRL key placement. Microsoft is promoting its Copilot+ PCs, which feature advanced AI capabilities, and has announced plans to enhance user experience based on feedback, including the potential reinstatement of taskbar customization features. The company is also reassessing its AI strategy and has decided to eliminate plans for integrating Copilot into notifications and Settings to reduce bloatware.
