Arc System Launches Marvel Tokon PC Update, and Some Players Are Saying It’s Fixing Most of Their Issues

Developer Arc System Works has released a significant update for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls, addressing technical issues that affected its launch on PC and PlayStation 5. Players reported stuttering and performance problems during the first weekend, leading to negative reviews. The update has resolved several critical issues, including sudden performance drops, frame rate inconsistencies, and reduced CPU usage. Feedback from players post-update has been largely positive, with many noting improvements in performance. However, some players still experience lingering issues, such as enforced PSN connection and lack of Linux support. The update is part of Arc System Works' commitment to enhance performance and stability, with further refinements planned. The game is currently available on PC and PS5.

Aptoide also operates an alternative iOS marketplace in the EU and is involved in similar programs in other countries. The presence of competing app stores within Google Play allows for easier access to alternative marketplaces, making them a more realistic option for everyday Android users.

Notchify brings macOS-style “Dynamic Island” flair to Windows 11 — and it’s surprisingly useful if you can get by the ick factor

Notchify is an application that simulates a "fake" notch or "island" at the top of the screen on Windows PCs, displaying information such as notifications, media playback controls, weather updates, battery status, timers, and microphone indicators. It features a user-friendly interface with options to toggle between Island and Notch modes, select display monitors, and customize themes and effects. Users can combine small and large widgets for information display, and the notch remains "always on top," expanding to show details when hovered over. The app centralizes information, enhancing workflow, especially for users with large monitors. It is priced at .99 after a free trial and emphasizes updates based on user feedback. The developer engages with the community for performance improvements, reflecting the spirit of indie development.

Google Play Store’s first experimental ‘Labs’ feature lets you ‘expand everything’

Google is testing a new feature in its Play Store called “Expand everything,” which automatically expands search results to provide more information about apps without needing to manually expand each result. This feature, found in the “Play Labs” section, displays search results in an expanded format by default, changing the arrow icon from an expander to a collapsible tool. While it offers more detailed information, it occupies more screen space, resulting in fewer visible results. Users can enable or disable this feature by navigating to the “Play Labs” option in their profile settings. The rollout is gradual, with limited access for users currently, but it is expected to become more widely available soon.

Fixing Windows 11 now does not excuse letting it become a mess for decades

Windows 11 is undergoing enhancements, with many features currently exclusive to Windows Insiders and still in the mockup phase. Microsoft is overhauling the Windows 11 interface, integrating WinUI into components like the Start menu and File Explorer. Windows Insider participants must update their systems to a new build by August 11, 2026, to avoid expiration of builds and ensure automatic updates. Lenovo's latest BIOS update for the Legion Go gaming handheld has made some devices inoperable, prompting users to avoid the update. The modernization of Windows has been criticized for not being prioritized earlier, despite significant user feedback. The Seagate Storage Expansion Card for Xbox Series X|S is currently in short supply, and the Dell XPS 14 has a price reduction of 0.
