Bethesda says it is "aware" of the crashing issues some people are reporting when playing Starfield on PS5 and will address them in a hotfix later this week. Within days of Microsoft launching Starfield on rival console PS5 , players began reporting progression-breaking problems on both the base and PS5 Pro models, including freezes , crashes , and save issues . Despite trying a myriad of workarounds, including disabling auto-save, some players have even deemed the highly anticipated port " unplayable " and demanded refunds from Sony. Now, acknowledging the issues on social media, Bethesda Game Studios has responded to unhappy players, writing: "Thanks for sharing your adventures across the Settled Systems this weekend — we’ve loved reading them! "We’re aware of some reported PS5 crashing issues and have narrowed them down to a small number of causes. We’re addressing these in a hotfix we’re aiming to release this week.

Rockstar Games hackers ShinyHunters released the stolen data early, revealing revenue for GTA Online and Red Dead Online . But, crucially, no GTA 6 information appears to have leaked online. The stolen data was viewed by GTA Forums user Lexiture and reported on by Kotaku . It shows GTA Online allegedly generates much more money than Red Dead Online, which doesn't come as a big surprise given the difference in support Rockstar gives each live service. It also shows that PS5 is the platform with the most GTA Online players and revenue, with PC lagging behind even the last generation of consoles on both counts. With the Rockstar leaks circulating, I put this together to illustrate the weekly spending in GTA Online on a platform basis. The data speaks for itself. Per data from GTA Forums, PS5 generates more than half weekly GTA Online bookings, with $4.486M earned per week. pic.twitter.com/lBdqCZBc1B — Derek Strickland (@DeekeTweak) April 13, 2026 GTA 6 is planned for re...

Grand Theft Auto 5 actor Jay Klaitz has shared that he "wouldn’t be surprised" if the satire in Grand Theft Auto 6 doesn’t hit as hard because of "what we see happening in the real world." The performer behind heist mastermind Lester Crest gave his thoughts on the next Rockstar Games title in an interview with Eldorado . When asked about how GTA can approach humor given the state of the world, Klaitz said he could see its impact not hitting quite the same as many may expect. "Don’t get me wrong. It’s still f**king GTA," he clarified. "It’s going to be massive. People will lose their shit. It’s going to be huge, obviously. But it’s a different world to the one 13 years ago when the last one came out. I mean, it's a very different world than it was even a year ago." The tone Rockstar crafted through each GTA game helped transform it into the juggernaut it is today. In IGN’s own 10/10 review of GTA 5 , we called attention to how it ...

The public fallout of ill-fated MMO Ashes of Creation continues, this time with an alleged full breakdown of Intrepid Studios' expenses, revealing "a troubling picture of a company that was on the threshold of financial death at multiple points in its history" and millions of dollars allegedly spent on dubious purchases. YouTuber NefasQS claimed to have "obtained and processed the entire Intrepid Studios general ledger from 2015 to 2026," as well as corroborating documents and records that "help us finally finish most of what remains of the mystery surrounding Ashes of Creation and the implosion of Intrepid Studios."

A brand new Metro game is reportedly set to be revealed this week as part of a so-far unannounced Microsoft Xbox showcase.

There’s also a rumor that Sony plans a State of Play showcase for this week, although that’s unconfirmed for now.
