Microsoft Defender Adds Dashboard for 2011 Secure Boot Certificates

Microsoft has introduced a feature in the Microsoft Defender dashboard to help IT managers identify devices using 2011 Secure Boot certificates, which expire in June of this year. The recommendation view categorizes devices into three groups: Exposed Devices (trust outdated certificates), Compliant Devices (use new 2023 certificates), and Not Applicable Devices (Secure Boot disabled or unsupported). The dashboard provides a centralized overview of device security status and the distribution of 2023 certificates, allowing filtering by operating system and device context. Devices without the new certificates will still boot but may lack the latest protection during the early boot phase, exposing them to threats. Microsoft does not automatically distribute new certificates via Windows updates on servers, requiring manual action from administrators. The dashboard aids IT teams in prioritizing action on Exposed Devices and exporting data for collaboration.

Microsoft tests Auto SR, its AI upscaler for Xbox and Windows gaming

Microsoft has introduced a preview of Auto SR, an AI-driven upscaling technology for Xbox Insiders using the ROG Xbox Ally X handheld. This feature upgrades game output from 720p to 1440p and increases frame rates by about 30% in docked mode. Auto SR operates at the OS level, requiring no developer patches, but is limited to games that support DirectX 11 and 12, excluding titles using DirectX 9, Vulkan, and OpenGL. Currently, it is available only for the ROG Xbox Ally X and Copilot+ PCs with Snapdragon X chips, and the preview is invite-only and docked mode only. Early feedback indicates some user interface artifacts and a battery drain of 8–12% on the Ally X. A broader rollout for Windows began on April 30, 2026, but no specific consumer launch date has been announced. Auto SR is not intended for the upcoming Project Helix Xbox console, which will use AMD FSR Diamond instead.

Minecraft Dungeons 2 expected release date, platforms, features and more

Mojang announced Minecraft Dungeons 2 during Minecraft Live 2026, confirming its release in Fall 2026. The game will be available on Windows PC, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2, with Game Pass support. A trailer hinted at new challenges involving Sculk blocks and the Deep Dark biome, and a QR code in the trailer led to a secret video with the term "spicewood." The original Minecraft Dungeons, released in 2020, faced criticism for repetitiveness and lack of endgame content, prompting Mojang to halt its development.

GTA 5 Free New Single-Player Content Is Going To Change Everything

Grand Theft Auto VI is set to debut later this year, while a free expansion for Grand Theft Auto V is being released to keep players engaged. GTA V lacked single-player story expansions, which fans have long desired. A new modding tool called RPFKit is being introduced for PC players, replacing OpenIV and offering features like a world editor and file editing capabilities. This toolkit will allow players to create and explore mods, including the possibility of recreating the map of GTA VI in GTA V. The community is excited about RPFKit, as it provides a modern alternative for modding. There is speculation about whether GTA VI's PC port will support mods, as Rockstar has historically been more lenient with single-player mods compared to GTA: Online.

Massive new Xbox Ally X update brings major changes to the Steam Deck’s handheld rival

The latest update for the Xbox Ally X introduces several enhancements, including improved docked usage, expanded game library support, and automatic upscaling through Auto Super Resolution. The handheld now automatically transitions gameplay to a connected display, disables its own screen to conserve resources, and activates Auto Low Latency Mode and Variable Refresh Rate settings on compatible displays. Users can adjust external display settings via the Game Bar overlay without exiting games. Controller pairing has been improved, with handheld controls disabled when a controller is connected. The left thumbstick can now function as a cursor for navigating applications that do not support controller input. Auto Super Resolution allows games to run at 720p but output at 1440p on external displays. The update also enhances support for the Xbox Wireless Headset and Bluetooth LE Audio, improves haptic feedback, and allows users to add custom game links in the Xbox app for easier access to games.
