Once every year Capcom deigns to give us a big patch for Street Fighter 6 , and it's that magical time of the year. Releasing in tandem with the first character of Season 4, Yasmine, Street Fighter 6 also dropped with a big patch for the game. Sadly, no system mechanic changes so no removal of throw loops and no hurtbox extension to Drive Rush, and they did add a lot of options to Modern for some reason, but there are at least changes to every character on the roster.

Enjoying your time with the latest Marvel Rivals character, The Hood? Well, if you are then I've got a double dose of good news for you (and if you aren't then my condolences I hope this makes your day slightly better)! A texture compression patch should be out today that squeezes every last drop of performance out of our old machines, and decreases the massive size of Marvel Rivals by 40GB on PC and 15GB on console!

Wizards of the Coast need to strike while the iron's hot.

Lao-Shan Lung is a monster that only occasionally makes appearances in the Monster Hunter series for how iconic it is, but the mountain dragon is front and center for the Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance trailer from Playstation's State of Play today, the Monster Hunter Wilds expansion set to release in 2027, though despite the spotlight Lao isn't the only big dragon we see, as the newly unveiled Gundoraja pulls thunder and lightning and storms across the skies to give aspirant hunters the fight of their lives.

Polyphony Digital's Gran Turismo 7 has been trucking along quite nicely since its release in 2022, over 4 years ago. With support from its development team Gran Turismo has enjoyed consistent updates in the form of “Specs”. With Spec III being last year's update, we're now on the cusp of Spec IV which is due to come out by the end of the year. Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamaguchi took to the Playstation State of Play today to expand on just what's in store for the upcoming Spec IV update.

I think that's the first time I've seen a character trailer start with a low crush. Arjun, the second of Street Fighter 6 's Season 4 DLC characters, has officially had his gameplay reveal trailer:
