Nintendo's 2023 Direct presentation featured the game Stray Children, directed by Yoshiro Kimura. The game has a unique pixel art style and will make its English debut later this year on PC. Players control a young, dog-like boy transported to a fantastical realm inhabited by children, avoiding "The Olders," monstrous adults. The gameplay involves combat in compact arenas with bullet-hell style attacks. Stray Children was released in Japan last year for the Nintendo Switch, and while an English localization is promised, the exact release date is unconfirmed but anticipated for 2025.

Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 27868 has been released to the Canary Channel. There are no plans to release SDKs for the 27xxx series builds. The voice access feature has been enhanced with a new in-product experience to highlight new features. A fix has been implemented for pen input issues on certain PCs, and problems with launching applications like Spotify from the Microsoft Store have been addressed. A rendering issue in the Group Policy Editor for some display languages has been corrected, and a SYSTEMTHREADEXCEPTIONNOTHANDLED bugcheck issue has been fixed. Known issues include potential loss of Windows Hello PIN and biometrics for Copilot+ PCs transitioning to the Canary Channel, an Administrative Templates error in the Group Policy Editor, taskbar display issues after upgrading, and audio problems with high sampling rate devices. Applications reliant on virtualization will require the "Windows Hypervisor Platform" component when Virtualization Based Security is enabled. Search and filtering options in Task Manager are currently non-operational. Insiders in the Canary Channel should note that builds reflect early development changes and may not align with any specific Windows release. Features may not reach the general public, and a clean installation is required to exit the Canary Channel. The desktop watermark is standard for pre-release builds.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion has been remastered using Unreal Engine 5, enhancing visuals significantly, particularly in the Imperial City and Bruma. The game requires nearly 120 GB of storage space. Performance issues occur on an NVIDIA 4060, with frame rates dropping in large areas. Combat mechanics have improved, but auto-leveling enemies can be frustrating. The Dark Brotherhood and Mages Guild quests remain engaging, and the new soundtrack by Soul is well-received. However, the game has persistent bugs, including NPCs getting stuck, erratic guard dialogue, and some unplayable quests. The user interface is cumbersome, and the absence of new mechanics makes it feel more like a polished version than a remake. Crashes to the desktop are common, affecting immersion. There is also a desire for a remaster of Morrowind and a lack of Russian localization.
