There have been rumors about Starfield coming to PlayStation 5 for some time now, but Bethesda has yet to confirm any of them. Now, a leaker has put forth a report that Starfield will finally get its PS5 port near the beginning of April with two versions of the game. According to Polish site PPE.pl (via Video Games Chronicle), a leaker who goes by Graczdari has stated that Starfield will hit PS5 on April 7 with standard and deluxe editions. Graczdari has previously leaked correct information about The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered's physical release, as well as ports for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds and Microsoft Flight Simulator on Switch 2 and PS5, respectively. Considering the flow of formerly exclusive Xbox games that arrived on PS5 in 2025, it was surprising that Starfield wasn't among them. It's been rumored that Microsoft and Bethesda held off until an additional story DLC was ready to be released on Xbox Series X|S and PC as well. Some of Starfield's new features were recently disclosed during a closed-door preview. However, Bethesda has yet to officially disclose its plans for either a PS5 port or the next DLC release.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Valve clearly feels confident in the power of the upcoming Steam Machine. The company has revealed that in testing for the system, "the majority of Steam titles play great at 4K 60fps with FSR," per a new blog post about Steam hardware. For those unfamiliar with FSR, the acronym stands for FidelityFX Super Resolution and in the most basic sense helps upscale image quality. Of course, "most" games doesn't mean "all." As such, Valve adds there will be Steam Machine games that "require more upscaling than others, and it may be preferable to play at a lower frame rate with VRR to maintain a 1080p internal resolution." No specific games are mentioned, and there's no way to predict how future titles may perform on the Steam Machine. The company is currently focused on HDMI VRR (variable refresh rate, which helps to smooth out performance), upscaling improvements, and "optimizing ray-tracing performance in the driver" for the Steam Machine. When Steam Machine actually becomes available to buy is still up in the air. In the same blog post, Valve stated that Steam Machine pricing and release details have been delayed because of memory and storage shortages. The company originally planned to already reveal those details to the public.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Soon after, the company released a standalone trailer for the Switch 2 edition with a nifty little bonus: Physical editions of the game will include a Magic: The Gathering promo card featuring artwork from Tetsuya Nomura himself.

The promo version, however, will feature the same artwork of Zack that appears on the cover of the Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth Material Ultimania encyclopedia.

Amid an ongoing global memory shortage driven by AI companies, will the PS5 console see another price hike? Sony isn't saying yes or no to that question, but it has confirmed it has a supply of memory to meet demand for PS5 consoles throughout 2026. "As for securing a supply of memory, we are already in a position to secure the minimum quantity necessary to manage the year-end selling season of next fiscal year--October to December 2026," Sony CFO Lin Tao said (via This Week in Videogames). "Going forward, we intend to further negotiate with various suppliers to secure enough supply to meet the demand of our customers." Tao added that Sony's hardware sales strategy can be "adjusted flexibly," suggesting that the company is aiming to avoid another PS5 price hike while also prioritizing "monetization of the install base to date" and further expanding software and network service revenue.Continue Reading at GameSpot

The ongoing memory chip shortage issues are impacting Nvidia's production now, with the company reportedly planning to delay its new gaming GPU cards this year. According to The Information (via Sherwood News), Nvidia is pushing the release of its new graphics cards this year to meet the demands for AI processors. Two people The Information spoke to said that, as the company delays its new GPUs, the plan is to leverage its limited memory chip supply to keep up with calls for more AI data centers.

This delay would mark the first time in three decades that the company hasn't debuted a new gaming GPU.Continue Reading at GameSpot

To close out the latest Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase, Xbox subsidiary Bethesda showed up to confirm the release dates for Nintendo Switch 2 ports of Fallout 4, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered.

It’s looking like a good year for Nintendo’s new console.

The Reign of Talon begins! Overwatch Narrative Lead, Miranda Moyer tells us all about the game’s first complete story arc.

Valve's second attempt at launching its Steam Machine is still set to happen in early 2026, according to AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su. In an AMD earnings call, Su specifically mentions support for Valve Steam Machine, which will make use of an AMD processor. "From a product standpoint, Valve is on track to begin shipping its AMD-powered steam machine early this year," Su states, stopping short of giving an exact timeframe. Early 2026 does align with what Valve suggested during the announcement of the Steam Machine, but since then, the company hasn't provided any updates on availability or pricing. The PC hardware landscape has, however, drastically changed since, with RAM and storage pricing exponentially increasing and potentially having an impact on numerous hardware launches for the foreseeable future.Continue Reading at GameSpot

The second season of Amazon's Fallout series concluded yesterday, and with it the mystery behind the countdown timer on the show's official website. And as you might expect, it's not led to anything as exciting as some were hoping for. There was strong speculation online that the countdown would end with the announcement (and in some more hopeful corners, the release) of remasters for either Fallout 3 or Fallout: New Vegas, neither of which transpired yesterday evening. Instead, fans of both the games and show were treated to recreation of one of New Vegas' most iconic locations: the Lucky 38 casino penthouse, home to Robert House, before the bombs dropped. Like other markers on the map on the official site, this is a simple but interesting interactive look at some of the popular locations from the show, with Vault 33 and Caswennan featuring previously. It's not clear why this location in particular warranted a countdown for several weeks, especially since it's a location that debuted in the show several episodes ago already.Continue Reading at GameSpot

The topic of affordability is a much-discussed issue in the world of video games, and many other business sectors, with prices for products and services going up and creating an environment in which richer households now make up the majority of gaming hardware buyers. As part of Take-Two's latest earnings briefing, top boss Strauss Zelnick responded to the "affordability picture" for its fans ahead of the launch of GTA 6 in November. To play GTA 6, you will need a gaming console, and those are getting more expensive, even five-plus years into their lifecycles, due in part to the impact of tariffs and other economic factors. Zelnick said "consumers do expect to pay" to be able to play compelling games, but the executive was more focused on talking about the affordability of games as opposed to hardware. Zelnick said his aim continues to be to "deliver way more value than what we charge" with its games, so consumers feel like they got a good deal out of paying for a new game. "I think we're known for that," he said. The executive went on to say that Take-Two does not see itself as being "in the business of creating revenue," but instead that Take-Two is a company that entertains people, with the revenue following as a result. This is corporate speak, to be sure.Continue Reading at GameSpot
