13 years after it was first teased, and 2 months after committing to a 2025 release, Mewgenics is delayed into 2026

Mewgenics, an "endless cat breeding RPG," will now be released on February 10, 2026, instead of the originally planned 2025 launch. Creator Edmund McMillen cited strategic planning as the reason for the delay, aiming to avoid competition with holiday releases. The additional eight months will allow the team to complete significant development tasks, including the animation of the final boss, integration of hard path rewards and random generation items, creation of ten new cutscenes, commissioning of three new music tracks, implementation of alternative and shiny furniture, and the completion of a secret late-game system. McMillen plans to engage fans with live streams and previews starting in January.

Double Fine dev embarks on a quest to discover Full Throttle’s true release date: ‘Perhaps the best 30th birthday present I could give Full Throttle was a real birthday’

Full Throttle, an adventure game by LucasArts, marked its 30th anniversary, leading to an investigation into its release date. Conflicting sources suggested various dates: April 30, April 20, and May 19, 1995. Double Fine Productions leans towards April 30, but that date fell on a Sunday, making it unlikely for a retail release. Investigation into original release files indicated modifications as late as May 2, 1995. An advertisement in The Daily Record on May 19, 1995, promoted the game, but staggered releases and miscommunication were common at the time. CompUSA expected copies by May 5, but they didn't reach shelves until at least May 18. Silk noted that requests for hints about the game began to appear after May 19, 1995, suggesting that this date may mark when the game entered public awareness.

Stellar Blade devs seem as confused as everyone else as the action-RPG’s PC port gets region locked in over 100 countries despite no PSN requirements: “May I ask where you live?”

Stellar Blade will be available on PC without requiring a PlayStation Network (PSN) account, but it is subject to region-locking limitations affecting over 100 countries, making it inaccessible to many potential players. This has led to frustration among users, as demonstrated by a tweet from a disappointed player. Shift Up, the game's developer, is engaging with users on Twitter to understand the situation better. While Sony has moved away from enforcing PSN requirements for its PC games, the region-locking issue persists in several recent releases, including The Last of Us 2 Remastered and Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

‘You can’t escape us’: Devolver plots to release a game on GTA 6’s release date, no matter when that is

Devolver Digital announced a cryptic message on X regarding the release date of Grand Theft Auto 6, stating, "You can't escape us. May 26, 2026 it is then." The publisher is known for titles like Cult of the Lamb and Death's Door and is expected to unveil a game on the same day as GTA 6. Enter the Gungeon 2 is set for a 2026 release, while Hotline Miami 3 is speculated but not officially announced. If Rockstar Games delays GTA 6, Devolver may choose to release their game as planned or delay it. The timing may favor Devolver, as GTA 6 is unlikely to be available on PC at launch, potentially attracting PC gamers to an indie title.

Grand Theft Auto 5 Enhanced launch is going poorly or well depending on how you look at it: It’s got a ‘mixed’ rating on Steam and is one of the most-played games

Grand Theft Auto 5 Enhanced has launched on Steam, attracting nearly 115,000 concurrent players, with a peak of over 187,000 in the last 24 hours, primarily due to being offered free to existing owners. However, it has not become one of Steam's top-selling games. The Steam rating for GTA 5 Enhanced is "mixed," with 56% of reviews positive, reflecting user frustration. Rockstar Support has noted that some online migrations may take additional time and that suspended or banned accounts may not be eligible for migration. The Enhanced edition has entered Steam's top 10 without significantly affecting the player base of GTA 5 Legacy, which has around 122,000 concurrent players. The Enhanced edition's player count briefly surpassed the Legacy version but has since stabilized. The combined player counts indicate strong engagement with the Grand Theft Auto franchise.
