The game formerly known as Operation Flashpoint is getting a remaster, while developer Bohemia Interactive has released its engine source code

Operation Flashpoint debuted in June 2001 as a significant military simulator with an expansive open-world design, allowing players to engage in combined-arms warfare across large islands. Players could control various military assets and command squads, offering a level of realism and complexity ahead of its time. Bohemia Interactive announced plans to celebrate ArmA: Cold War Assault with a remastered edition featuring a reengineered Poseidon engine, widescreen support, and modern hardware compatibility. A demo is available, serving as a "self-contained slice" and a "sanctioned asset pack" for fans to create new content. Bohemia has released the complete engine source code on GitHub, upgraded to C++20 with cross-platform support, while ensuring that the license does not extend to the ArmA or Operation Flashpoint trademarks. Bohemia is also developing ArmA Reforger, which recreates iconic islands and serves as a testbed for the anticipated ArmA 4, set for release in 2027.

The passenger and rear displays will support these apps in select 2025 and newer GM models, including the Chevy Tahoe, Suburban, Cadillac Escalade, and GMC Yukon.

5 promising games recently cancelled by Microsoft

Microsoft is undergoing a restructuring that includes layoffs across its game studios and further job cuts and studio closures as part of the "Xbox reset" initiated by new CEO Asha Sharma. This initiative has resulted in the cancellation of several game projects, including: - Odyssey: Shelved in 2024 after challenges in development, including a switch from Unreal Engine to an internal engine. - Everwild: Canceled in 2025 after years of development and at least one reboot. - Perfect Dark: The reboot was canceled in 2025 despite a positive gameplay reveal, with reports of interest from Take-Two Interactive. - Contraband: Development ceased in 2025, leaving the future of the co-op smuggling game uncertain. - Project Blackbird: Canceled in 2025 after over six years of development due to financial concerns regarding the investment required for an MMO. Following the cancellation of Project Blackbird, some team members formed a new studio named Sackbird.

Android 17 Bubbles finally made me love multitasking on my Pixel

Android 17 introduces the Bubbles feature for Google Pixel phones, enhancing multitasking by allowing users to manage up to five apps simultaneously. Users can create Bubbles by long-pressing an app icon, and the feature integrates into the Taskbar on devices like the Pixel 10 Pro Fold. However, compared to Samsung's One UI, Bubbles has limitations, such as lacking the ability to freely move and resize windows. The Pixel 10 is the first phone to run Android 17 and will receive six additional Android OS upgrades in the future.
