Grand Theft Auto VI delayed again, this time until May 2026Rockstar Games announced on X (formerly Twitter) Friday that the release of Grand Theft Auto VI has been postponed to May 26, 2026. The company issued an apology for the delay but did not offer specific reasons for pushing the launch from its previously expected fall 2025 window. OnePlus Nord 5: What We Know So Far “With every game we’ve released, our aim has been to surpass expectations, and Grand Theft Auto VI is no exception,” Rockstar said in a statement. “We hope you understand that this extra time is necessary to meet the high standards you’ve come to expect from us.” The delay had an immediate impact on the market, with shares of Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar’s parent company, falling nearly 7% on Friday. Take-Two CEO and chairman Strauss Zelnick expressed full support for Rockstar’s decision, stating that the company backs the additional development time needed to bring the team’s creative vision to life. He reaffirmed expectations for the game to be a groundbreaking, blockbuster experience. “Although we take changes to our release schedule seriously and recognize the global anticipation surrounding Grand Theft Auto VI, we remain committed to delivering excellence,” Zelnick said. “As we roll out more titles from our strong development pipeline, we anticipate entering a period of sustained growth and increased shareholder value.” While fans expressed frustration over the latest delay, many responded with resigned acceptance, as the game's release has already been rumored for both 2024 and 2025. On a Reddit discussion forum dedicated to the game, several fans noted they had seen this before and wouldn’t be surprised if the release was delayed again. Others took a more optimistic tone, saying an exact release date means it will actually happen this time around. One of the last times the game garnered this much buzz was in 2023, when a trailer for the game was leaked online. At the time, Rockstar released the first look of the sixth game 15 hours earlier than planned, citing the leak. That 90-second trailer gave fans a taste of what comes next for the game. The trailer suggested the next installment would be set in the Miami-inspired Vice City and star a female protagonist, a first for the franchise, named Lucia. It is unclear whether the delay means any, or all, of these details will remain part of Grand Theft Auto VI.      

Rockstar Games has officially announced that the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI will be released on May 26, next year. The release date marks a delay from earlier expectations, with the developer citing the need for additional time to ensure the game meets the high standards fans have come to expect from the franchise, according to Rockstar. "We are very sorry that this is later than you expected," Rockstar said in a statement released Friday. "The interest and excitement surrounding a new Grand Theft Auto has been truly humbling for our entire team." The company emphasised its commitment to quality, stating that the extra development time is necessary to deliver an experience that lives up to players’ expectations. Microsoft increases Xbox prices globally amid tariff-driven industry uncertainty "With every game we have released, the goal has always been to try and exceed your expectations, and Grand Theft Auto VI is no exception," the statement added. Rockstar thanked fans for their continued patience and support, promising to share more updates in the near future. Started in 1997, the Grand Theft Auto series almost immediately created a name for itself as a nihilistically provocative and crudely satirical pop-culture sensation, in which players took on the roles of urban criminals testing the frameworks of US society as they tried to rise up the ranks of a gangland underworld. Created by Rockstar, a games development studio based in Dundee, Scotland, the GTA games have always been a parody of US excess, with witty in-game jokes on everything from heart attack-inducing burgers to smart homes.

As trade tensions and tariff-related uncertainty continue to cloud the global economy, gamers worldwide are beginning to feel the impact through higher prices. Microsoft has increased the suggested retail prices for its Xbox consoles and accessories globally this week. In the U.S., the Xbox Series S now starts at $379.99—an $80 increase from its original $299.99 launch price in 2020. The more advanced Xbox Series X will now retail for $599.99, up $100 from its previous cost. “We recognize these changes may be difficult,” Microsoft said in a support update and a statement to the Associated Press. While the company didn’t directly cite tariffs, it attributed the increases to broader "market conditions and rising development costs." The price hikes are not limited to the U.S. — Europe, the U.K., and Australia will also see revised pricing, with additional regions to follow. Accessories such as wireless controllers and headsets are also affected, including in the U.S. and Canada. Microsoft also signaled that prices for some of its upcoming first-party games could rise to $79.99 by the holiday season. These adjustments come during a volatile period for the gaming industry, which has been rattled by new U.S. tariffs introduced by former President Donald Trump and retaliatory measures from countries like China. Economists warn these tariffs will drive up prices on a wide range of goods that depend on international supply chains, including electronics. Microsoft isn't alone. Sony recently raised PlayStation 5 prices in parts of Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Australia, and New Zealand, citing economic pressures such as inflation and volatile exchange rates. Nintendo also delayed preorders for its upcoming Switch 2 console in April to assess the potential impact of tariffs. While the base price of $449.99 remains unchanged, the new console is significantly more expensive than the original $299 model, a hike experts partly attribute to rising import duties. Although many tech firms have already reported cautious forecasts due to tariff uncertainty, the full impact on their financial results may take time to surface. Microsoft’s price hike followed a strong quarterly earnings report: the company earned $70.07 billion in revenue and $25.8 billion in net income for the January–March period. Its personal computing division, which includes Xbox, saw a 6% revenue increase—prior to the enforcement of the latest tariffs.

Ubisoft has made its colour-blind simulation tool, Chroma, publicly available after years of internal development and use. With around 300 million people globally affected by colour blindness, Chroma aims to help developers better understand and address their accessibility needs. The open-source tool applies a filter over the game screen to replicate how colour-blind players perceive visuals—without impacting performance. Chroma allows developers to simulate different types of colour blindness in real-time while controlling the game, offering valuable insights during the creative and testing processes, according to Ubisoft. Assassin’s Creed Shadows Game Review: What’s New “Over the past few years, Chroma has proven to be a highly efficient tool for us at Ubisoft,” said David Tisserand, Director of Accessibility. “It has allowed us to assess the accessibility of our games for colour-blind players much faster and more comprehensively than ever before. Because we believe accessibility is a journey, not a race, we're thrilled to share Chroma with the entire industry. We invite everyone to benefit from it, provide feedback, and contribute to its future development." Chroma’s development began in 2021 through Ubisoft’s Quality Control (QC) team in India. The goal was to create a responsive tool that provides real-time feedback and eliminates lag and visual inaccuracies. The current version is powered by the Color Oracle algorithm and is compatible with both dual and single screens. It supports hotkeys and features a customisable overlay for enhanced usability. “Chroma was created with a clear purpose—making colour blindness accessibility a natural part of the creative and testing process,” said Jawad Shakil, QC Product Manager. “The team faced and overcame significant challenges while building it... Open-sourcing Chroma is a proud step forward, allowing everyone to benefit from this innovation." Chroma is now available for download at — https://github.com/ubisoft/UbiChroma

After toiling down fans with multiple delays, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the most anticipated installment of the popular stealth-action-adventure gaming franchise Assassin's Creed, was finally released on March 20, 2025. Reimagining the franchise in a mediaeval Japanese setting and spicing it up with a double-protagonist narrative, Assassin’s Creed Shadows attempts to stand out from its predecessors. Here is an in-depth highlight of key features of Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Full Review of Assassin’s Creed Shadows Game . Game Setting Assassin’s Creed Shadows invites players to a visual representation of 1500s Japan, known as the Sengoku period, when feudal lords all over the country were vying for power and wealth. More than the social depiction of mediaeval Japan, what sets the game beyond every other title of its genre is its rendition of the country's natural and geological details. The game spans regions like Iga, Settsu, and Yamato and cities like Osaka, Kyoto, and Asuka, rendering them into visual perfection. Every locale is designed to match its historical mediaeval age and intrigue players with its dynamic seasonal settings. Changes between seasons not only manifest into elemental and visual transformation but also impact gameplay. The same water body, uncrossable in summer, freezes into a roamable valley during winter, giving players opportunities to diversify their strategies. Read more: April 2025 Video Games: 8 Exciting Virtual Games Scheduled for Launch Story The story of Assassin’s Creed Shadows revolves around Japan’s political turmoil, which is indicated by a secret evil organisation named Shinbakufu. Intermittently switching between the narratives of Naoe, the princess of the Iga clan, and Yasuke, an African warrior, players seek to obliterate Shinbakufu's dark impact from one region at a time. Each region is an autonomous chapter with a distinct story that unfolds through a linear timeline. Only by resolving the conflict in one region can players move on to the next. The original story begins in 1581 with Yasuke’s arrival in Kyoto to accompany Jesuit priests and safeguard their passage to Japan. Showing his talent in battle, Yasuke impresses Oda Nobunaga, a warlord attacking neighbouring provinces, like the Iga clan, for power and wealth. Naoe, the daughter of the Iga clan’s ruler Nagato, was entrusted with a Hidden Blade by her father and told to keep a mysterious box from falling into the hands of Shinbakufu. To Naoe’s failure, members of Shinbakufu snatched the box and killed her father. On her journey to eradicate Shinbakufu and restore the box where it belongs, she meets Yasuke. And at a twisted turning of events, they find themselves on the route against the same enemy.

The two switchable protagonists—Naoe, an agile shinobi specialised in sneaky attacks, and Yasuke, a mountainous samurai, destructive with mile attacks—advance with the game’s story, completing objectives given by people in need of assistance from an assassin. The objective board offers an innovative way for players to explore their missions. An interconnected web spreads throughout the board, pointing at different targets and allies. Unlike the checklist-guided objectives in the previous games, Assassin’s Creed Shadows encourages genuine exploration. Instead of pinpointing the hunting places, the map gives hints with subtle clues to players with underlying directions towards the next objective. The game interface has regular hide-and-crawl advancement and slashing enemies to their deaths. Besides, the new game lets players recruit allies and call them to engage in battles, upgrade weaponry, and manage resources. Players will enjoy roaming vast lands with danger lurking around every nook and corner and often find themselves in places with awestriking beauties and landscapes. Read more: Top Video Game Releases in March 2025: Must-Play Titles for Every Gamer Combat Fighting sequences feel more in control in Assassin’s Creed Shadows than in the previous titles of the franchise, as it requires players to become more aware of their enemies’ movements, take defensive stands against their deadly blows, and find opportunities to cut large damage. Enemies, all equipped with swords and bows, often become difficult to fight thanks to their solid defences enhanced with protective armour, adding almost a second life to them. Fighting as Yasuke, who possesses an armament made of naginata, kanabo, bows, and, queerly enough, a gun. Vehement in his structure and aggression, Yasuke can break through walls and quake the ground with his inexorable moves. His ability to endure hits while confronting multiple enemies at a time in hand-to-hand combat makes him a short-range nightmare to the enemies. Naoe, on the other hand, is fragile and sneakier but can deal substantial damage to vulnerable enemies. It gets difficult to fight with her against a gang of three or more enemies and bruisers wearing armour. She is equipped with evasive weapons that allow her to become invisible in the moment of heavy hostilities. Her ability to sneakily attack and sense enemy presence on the other side of the wall makes her one of the most complete assassins in the franchise.  Read more: Greatest Video Game Inspired Movies and TV Series You Shouldn’t Miss Where Can You Play Assassin's Creed Shadows?

Conclusion Assassin’s Creed Shadows sets a new standard for its genre in visual depiction and gameplay. Its 40-hour gaming narrative may often feel intimidating; however, it quickly picks up in plot twists and character switches. Immersing players with visuals and adaptive gameplay of changing seasons, more attention-demanding combat styles, and a unique story, Assassin’s Creed Shadows redefines the franchise while staying true to the root elements.
