The Original Final Fantasy 7 Gets a New Re-release for PC on Steam

Final Fantasy VII has received a significant update on Steam, introducing several enhancements: a 3x Speed Mode for faster navigation, a Random Encounter Toggle, a Battle Enhancement Mode that maximizes the Limit gauge and restores HP and MP during battles, and an Autosave Feature. This updated version replaces the 2013 edition on the Steam store, which will no longer be available for purchase. Players who previously owned the 2013 edition will receive the new version for free and retain access to the older version, but save files from the 2013 edition are not compatible with the new release. The update aims to align the game with modern console ports and improve upon the earlier Steam edition's performance. Additionally, anticipation grows for the conclusion of the Final Fantasy VII Remake Trilogy, with Part 2, titled Rebirth, set to launch on Switch 2 and Xbox later this year.

Windows 11’s 2026 goes from bad to worse as two new bugs cause havoc crashing apps — but there are possible fixes

Windows 11 users are experiencing application crashes, particularly with programs like MSI's Armoury Crate and the Alienware Command Center, due to issues related to the Microsoft Store and user accounts. A licensing validation error (0x803f8001) is a primary cause, often linked to a corrupted Store cache or temporary sync issues. Additionally, after the January update, users have reported that applications like Outlook freeze when saving files to cloud services such as OneDrive or Dropbox. Microsoft has acknowledged this issue, indicating that certain Outlook configurations may become unresponsive if PST files are stored on OneDrive. Users are advised to move PST files out of OneDrive and may consider resetting the Store cache or reinstalling affected applications as potential fixes. Microsoft is working on a resolution, but no timeline has been provided. Some users have found success by reinstalling the January update, while others have resolved issues by simply waiting.

One of the best Xbox Play Anywhere games just got its notorious save bug fixed for Xbox Ally and Xbox PC

The save file bug in Death Stranding on Xbox PC has been resolved through a collaboration between Microsoft, 505 Games, and Kojima Productions. Initially, players faced issues where save files would fail to copy after a short gameplay period, leading to lost progress and contributing to a low review score of 2/5 on the Xbox PC store. The fix is being rolled out as part of the Xbox Gaming Services background app, and players can check for the update by verifying the version number in the Xbox PC app. The updated version is 32.106.13001.0 or higher. After testing the update, players have reported consistent progress saving. Death Stranding Director's Cut is available for purchase on the Xbox Store for .99 and supports the Xbox Play Anywhere initiative.

Android 16 QPR2 removes this handy way to save pictures from apps

Android's Recents screen allows users to share content from various applications, including copying URLs from Chrome and sharing images. With the upcoming Android 16 QPR2 update, Google is repositioning the link-sharing icon in Chrome to a more accessible location at the bottom of the screen. However, the update will also reduce image-related functionalities, limiting users to only sharing or copying images and removing the ability to save files locally.

Frostpunk 2 dev shares emergency crash fix as master city builders reach settlement sizes previously thought impossible

Frostpunk 2 is set three decades after a catastrophic blizzard, where players manage resources in a community facing severe winter challenges. The game allows for unprecedented settlement sizes due to a new sandbox mode, surprising the developers at 11 bit studios. However, players have encountered issues with save files not loading and game crashes due to exceeding the maximum number of manageable objects. The studio has provided guidance for players to manually adjust the object limit but warns it should be a last resort. The latest patch, hotfix 1.4.2, also includes enhancements such as fixes for unresponsive economy overlays, missing tooltips, and startup problems related to chapter five. Instructions for adjusting the object limit are available in the patch notes.
