PS Plus free games: New games revealed for May 2026
May is here, and with it comes three new games heading to PS Plus. Just like Xbox Game Pass, PS Plus gives you access to a wide library of games to play on your PS5 or PS4 console. It's a good time to invest in PlayStation, with games like Marvel's Wolverine coming up later this year, so be sure to get yours hands on a good PS Plus deal while you wait. With that, let's get into a list of all the games coming to PS Plus in May 2026, as well as the games leaving the service. PS Plus free games for May 2026 confirmed PS Plus Essential members will three free titles on 5 May as part of this month's games: EA Sports FC 26 (PS5/PS4) Wuchang: Fallen Feathers (PS5) Nine Sols (PS5/PS4) Headlining this month's games is EA Sports FC 26, the latest game in what is probably the biggest sports game in the world. With the TOTS promo ongoing, and FIFA World Cup events to look forward to, it's a perfect time to jump in and get involved with some footballing action. On the flip side, we have Wuchang: Fallen Feathers from Chinese studio Leenzee. A soulslike set in the chaotic late Ming Dynasty, players traverse an ancient China laid waste by a disease that transforms its victims into vicious monsters. Equal parts beautiful and challenging, this one is not for the faint of heart. Last, but far from least is one of the most underrated games of the last two years. Nine Sols is a crushingly hard 2D soulslike with combat inspired by the legendary Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Explore a beautiful, hand-drawn metroidvania map as you slash and parry your way through this abandoned eastern fantasy, hunting down the titular nine Sols.

Injustice 3 rumours explained: Why are people talking about it?
It's an injustice we haven't had a third game yet.
If you’re a fighting game fan and have been refreshing the timeline today, then you have seen Injustice 3 rumours flying around today, but why are people talking about it? The last Injustice game, Injustice 2, came out in 2017, and developers NetherRealm Studios have been busy with Mortal Kombat games every since, making the prospect of a third game seem increasingly unlikely, as there had only been a four year gap between the first and second games. Hopes were raised when a MultiVersus dataminer supposedly uncovered evidence that a new Injustice game was in development, but almost a year went by without so much as a peep. That is, until 29 April, when MP1st reported that Injustice 3 is indeed in development with NetherRealm Studios helming the project. MP1st spotted a resume from an artist employed at Warner. Bros Games that included Injustice 3 as part of their listed experience, alongside Hogwarts Legacy 2 and "2 Unannounced Projects". This is what is known in the industry as 'a bit of an oopsie', but it comes as much welcome news for DC fans, who haven’t received many good games in recent years, save for the VR game, Batman: Arkham Shadow. The upcoming LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight looks like it will be terrific too, so it does seem like Warner Bros. Games is starting to course-correct after misfires such as Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, which Radio Times Gaming editor Rob Leane called "dead on arrival". View Green Video on the source website But, turning our attention to those unannounced projects, we wonder if one, or both of them, will end up being the much-rumoured Lord of the Rings games, one of which was said to be developed by Kingdom Come: Deliverance II developers Warhorse Studios. As for Injustice 3, if more gaffs, leaks, reports or official announcements come to light, we will keep you up to speed, so be sure to subscribe to the Radio Times Gaming newsletter so you don’t miss out!

Fortnite update today (30 April): What changes in the patch notes?
There’s always something new in Fortnite, and what with Disney’s stake in Epic Games, we are being treated to a whole host of Star Wars-themed goodies, but there are many other little additions and fixes too, so we’ve got all the changes in the patch notes found in the Fortnite update v40.30 from today. Considering we just had karaoke added to the game, perhaps we’ll be able to do acapella renditions of the Star Wars Cantina Band… If you tire of big crossovers, then perhaps you would be more interested in player-driven experiences, such as Fortnite Be a Lucky Block and Fortnite Steal the Brainrot. But, as for Fortnite update v40.30, read on. Fortnite update today (30 April): What changes in the patch notes? Lots of new content is being added to Fortnite today, but some of it won’t become available until 1 May. Much of it, as we are approaching Star Wars Day (4 May), is Star Wars themed, and one of the big new additions is that Star Wars content is now available via the Star Wars toolkit, which allows developers to create Star Wars games within UEFN. Epic Games and Lucasfilm have created their own modes and islands, three of which are listed below. Galactic Siege (developed with JOGO Studios, island code: 5003-9856-3648) – Fight in large-scale PvP class-based battles with 10v10 combat across iconic Star Wars planets. Escape Vader (made with Beyond Creative, island code: 7285-4185-5428) – Hide, run, and try to survive in this 4-player co-op game where you attempt to escape the terrifying Sith Lord, Darth Vader. Droid Tycoon (created with FOAD, island code: 7865-8305-9184) – Build and customize droids using authentic Star Wars blueprints, manage your workshop and factory systems, and unlock rare components and special missions. Other than that, there are the usual bug fixes, optimisations and nefs, and you can check out the full patch notes below. Fortnite update today (30 April) full patch notes If you want every last little nitty-gritty detail of all the changes made in the Fortnite v40.30 update, you can see them below, courtesy of the official documentation. Tomorrow's the day! Starting May 1, you can publish Fortnite islands featuring Star Wars-themed assets. Head over to the Creator Portal to submit your island if you haven't already scheduled it to go live. Star Wars islands are taking the spotlight in Discover with a dedicated Game Collection! You can also add in-island transactions to your Star Wars islands, giving you more options for monetizing your experiences. Star Wars islands must follow the Fortnite Developer Rules as well as the updated STAR WARS Brand Rules — which now include new guidelines and payout terms for in-island transactions. STAR WARS Verse API Is No Longer Experimental The experimental flag is removed from the Star Wars Verse API, which means the following elements can now go live with your island: Force powers Scene Graph components and items Lightsabers Scene Graph components and items Jetpack and thermal items Ranged weapons Custom Lightsaber Entity Fix We have fixed a reference validation issue where placing a custom lightsaber entity with a generic lightsaber icon directly into your island would produce a white box in the quick bar instead of the expected icon when picked up. Any developers who have placed these entities directly into their island and are facing this issue can fix it by doing either of the following: Deleting the entity and recreating it. Replacing the generic lightsaber icon referenced by the entity. Lightsabers and Force Powers Template If you are using a version of the Lightsabers and Force Powers template from before the 40.30 release, you will need to uncheck Scene Graph Experimental Features under Project Settings before you publish your island. As of 40.30, Scene Graph Experimental Features is unchecked by default in this template. Disguise Kit and Air Strike Items Further develop the theme of your experience with the Disguise Kit and Air Strike items in the Star Wars feature set. Players can add the following disguises to their inventory and decide when to transform: Civilian Rebel Trooper Clone Trooper Moon Trader Mandalorian Stormtrooper Each disguise type comes with variants, like the Ahsoka's Clone Trooper and Mandalorian Spirit. Now players can call in a Rebel air strike without equipping the Hero device. The options include: Imperial Air Strike Rebel Air Strike These items are available in UEFN and Creative. New LEGO Assets Spinjitsu is now in UEFN Players can now tap into their inner balance and release the ultimate attack, Spinjitsu! This item is usable as long as it is in the player inventory. It is mapped to the dodge button (Ctrl by default), and will run as long as the player has stamina available. New LEGO NINJAGO Weapons Give your players the full NINJAGO experience with new LEGO NINJAGO weapons in UEFN! Both weapons come in five rarities and can be used with the Item Spawner or Item Granter devices. The Katana: Slice past your opponents with the LEGO Katana. This weapon has access to a 6-hit combination attack. The Scythe: Harvest eliminations with the new scythe weapon and unleash a large AOE attack! New Props and Building Assets in UEFN Whispering Wood has come to UEFN! Developers can now bring buildings and props from the Whispering Woods to enhance their games! You can now build areas to explore using assets from: The green monastery Hidden village Over 20 new props Spin into the LEGO NINJAGO Starter Template to try out the new weapons and explore new building assets. The monastery and hidden village assets were all created with LEGO Brick Editor. The assets are located in the LEGO Content > Brick Editor folder and can’t be separated or re-kragled. You can use them as construction guides for your own NINJAGO-inspired builds. View Green Video on the source website Unreal Engine Remote is Now Available on iOS, Android Coming Soon We're excited to announce that the Unreal Engine Remote application is now available for iOS, and Android support is coming soon! You can stream a preview session from your development computer directly to your mobile device and test your projects using real touch controls in Unreal Engine 5 and Unreal Editor for Fortnite. All touch input is processed as standard touch input in your project, with no extra hardware required. Get the Unreal Engine Remote App Go to the App Store on your iOS device. Search for Unreal Engine Remote. Tap Get to download and install it. Get Started in Unreal Editor for Fortnite Open your UEFN project. Launch Unreal Engine Remote on your iOS or Android device. Make sure your computer and mobile device are on the same network. Launch a Mobile Preview session. When the session starts, enter your computer's IP address in Unreal Engine Remote and tap Connect. Rocket Racing Tools New Rocket Racing devices are now available outside of the Rocket Racing island template, enabling you to build racing experiences directly within standard Fortnite Creative and UEFN workflows. These devices include: Rocket Racing Vehicle Spawner (Creative & UEFN) Rocket Racing Boost Pad (Creative & UEFN) Rocket Racing EMP Volume Hazard (Creative & UEFN) Rocket Racing Track (UEFN only) These devices are marked as Beta while they undergo further development and bug fixing. The Rocket Racing Boost Pad and EMP Volume Hazard are designed specifically for Rocket Racing vehicles and will not affect other vehicle types. Rocket Racing vehicles spawned from the Vehicle Spawner will not respond to input binding changes in the settings (they will only use the default input bindings). A fix is planned for a future release. Multistage Dynamic XP Calibration Starting in v40.30, XP Calibration is moving to a more flexible multistage system. Instead of waiting to fully calibrate before earning accolade XP, your island now moves through stages—shifting gradually from playtime XP toward accolade XP as more data is evaluated. Smaller islands can now earn some accolade XP before reaching full calibration, and if XP balance falls out of range, your island moves back stages in the process rather than pausing accolade XP grants entirely. New Back Input Action for Verse UI Menus Added a standardized Back Input Action for UI menus. This Input Action can be used as a binding for dismissing custom menus, backing out of screens, and more. It is mapped to the Escape key on keyboards and the Back button on controllers. Content Browser and Inventory Updates Check out the new devices and items available this release! New Weapons Hammer Revolver Super Shredder New Items OG Sneaky Snowman New Prefabs & Galleries Frigid Fortress Castle Prefab Frigid Fortress Vault Prefab Frigid Fortress Floor Gallery Frigid Fortress Wall Gallery Frigid Fortress Roof Gallery Frigid Fortress Prop Gallery Frigid Fortress Nature Gallery View Riddle on the source website Monthly Developer Survey Got a few minutes? We're running our monthly survey and want to hear from you. This month covers: Stability— your thoughts on UEFN's stability, and confidence in new releases. Material workflows—how you create and manage materials, from DCC tools like Blender and Maya to setup and optimization in UEFN. Community Bug Fixes The following fixes address issues you submitted to us on the forums. Thank you for your patience and for reporting these issues! Fixed an issue with some weapons having an incorrect fire rate after being spawned from Weapon Granters. Fixed an issue where Atmospheric Seagull particles were rendering incorrectly. Fixed an issue where the Custom Inventories UI was not appearing properly on mobile devices. Fixed an issue with the HUD Controller where the Modify Minimap Layout would fail when Use Latest HUD was enabled. Fixed a visual issue where closed Star Wars chest containers were not appearing closed. Fortnite Ecosystem Updates and Fixes New: Optimised LODs on snow and volcanic cliffs and mounds. Added a stance setting for car body TagTiger Delmar. Added a stance setting for carbody TagTiger BR. Added the OG Sneaky Snowman to Creative. Added a Simulate Player Speaking debug command. This places a looping sample audio at the player's location that matches the island settings for voice chat. The command acts as a toggle, so re-running the command will remove the looping audio. Added the ability to target a specified player with the debug commands. Fixes: Fixed periodic door animation issues. Fixed an issue where weapons picked up on an island with infinite ammo would sometimes have broken fire rates. Riding out of Myst Raven Myst Form is now allowed. Adjusted the categorization of items added in Fortnite OG that were not correctly identified. This changes their Verse representation and their categorization in Creative. Zapotron Guided Missile Wall Dynamo Ceiling Zapper Submachine Gun Fixed an issue where the Lawless Trinity Assault Rifle had empty mod slots in the UI despite the fact that it does not use mods. Adjusted cinematic vehicles for consistent forward direction. Adjusted LOD switch values on background planets to reduce faceting. Bug fixes for the Flight command: The state of the Flight command is now reset when transitioning to a new round or ending a game. This prevents the user from having to activate the Flight command twice to re-enable flight mode. Flight speed is now correctly reapplied when respawning. Creative Flying input is now applied, allowing the player to move up and down and sprint the same way they do in Edit mode. The player no longer exits flight when firing their weapon. Fixed on-grid previews that were getting stuck at the world origin. Updated: We’ve revisited some older devices to update the option ranges for a more customizable experience.

Props now remain properly attached and no longer fall to the terrain during customisation in Edit mode. Fixed an issue where mid-air momentum was reduced during subsequent sprint jumps. Momentum is now preserved as expected. Fixed an issue where Bouncers (excluding the Classic Bouncer) failed to play VFX and SFX when repeatedly activated by physics props. Effects now trigger correctly for all Bouncers. Fixed an issue where the Carryable Device hologram was not visible after placement. The hologram now appears correctly. Fixed an issue where the maximum Damage on Collision value differed between Creative and UEFN. The value can now be set up to 999999 consistently for both.

Fixed a Prop Mover issue where the prop behaves abnormally when simulate physics is enabled. Unreal Revision Control (URC) Updates and Fixes Fixes: Fixed an issue that was causing the possibility for files stored manually inside of project folders and not tracked by URC to be deleted due to an issue with the .urcignore file not being properly respected. Improved Branch Explorer performance by avoiding repeatedly loading the same shared history across branches. Instead, the system now recognizes branch points and stops loading earlier, reducing unnecessary processes. While we continue improving Branch Explorer’s graph performance, this release adds a temporary fix: for large projects, the graph won’t load automatically unless requested. This lets you use core features like creating and switching branches quickly without waiting for the graph to load.

If you’ve been playing Saros, and one of the characters has given you a serious case of earworms, then we’ve got you covered, as we have all the voice actors that comprise the Saros cast and where you know them from. Much like the recently released Pragmata, the Saros cast isn’t quite a West End ensemble, but instead an intimate cohort that bring an impactful story to life. To be entirely honest, we’re surprised that anyone even has the energy to talk after being subjected to the bullet hell nightmares of planet Carcosa, but we’re mightily glad they do, as it offers up a much welcome break after gripping onto your controller for dear life!

Saros cast: All voice actors Here is a list of all the main voice actors in Saros and their characters: Rahul Kohli – Arjun Devraj Jane Perry – Sheridan Bouchard David DeSantos – Sebastian Ben Prendergast – Jerome Jackson Shunori Ramanathan – Nitya Chandran Where do you know the Saros cast from?

But, as for where you know the actors from, you can see where just below!

Charlie Cox was asked to copy Gustave's mocap actor on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
You can copy my homework, just make sure it's literally the same.
It was no surprise that Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 received so many nominations ahead of the BAFTA Games Awards 2026 before going on to win three awards: best game, debut game, and performer in a leading role, going to Jennifer English. While gamers and the press may not have been shocked after getting to play E33, the game's success still came as something of a surprise to Clair Obscur writer Jennifer Svedberg-Yen and Lune actor Kirsty Rider. Not only that, to avoid any crushing post-launch disappointment, actor Ben Starr even told Monoco actor Rick Keeble not to bet on it being a success. Fortunately, this did not transpire, but Starr still wouldn’t reprise Verso in the Clair Obscur film despite the critical acclaim. View oEmbed on the source website Much of what makes Clair Obscur so interesting is its storied development, and how different actors performed different parts of each character that comprised the cast, with Gustave having motion capture performed by Maxence Cazorla and the English voice coming from one Charlie Cox. With a performance already in the bag, the Radio Times Gaming team were curious how Cox went about portraying Gustave, and as it turns out he wasn’t so sure at first. “I didn't even know what I was getting myself into when I showed up for the voiceover element of the job,” Cox told us on the BAFTA Games Awards red carpet. “I was watching his performance on screen, and I said early on to the creators, ‘What are you hoping that I'm going to kind of reinvent this with my own interpretation? Or are you hoping that I'm going to kind of match what he's already done vocally?’” Cox continued To Cox’s surprise, they said, “Look, we love what Maxence has done. So if you're comfortable, you know, kind of almost copying him…”, which Cox concedes made his life “very, very easy". Everyone’s performance in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was brilliant, but Cox found Cazorla’s performance not only incredible but indispensable, giving him “huge, huge credit to him for the work he did over 18 months”. As for the live-action Clair Obscur film in the works, Cox reckons Robert Pattinson should play Gustave, but with his voice.

The Tourist creators confirmed to helm TV adaptation of beloved and BAFTA-winning post-apocalyptic video game
Another post-apocalyptic video game, another TV series with serious talent behind it.
Fancy watching a television adaptation of a post-apocalyptic video game? No, we’re not talking about Fallout or The Last of Us, but the Atomfall TV series, which has just been announced to be in production by Two Brothers Pictures and Rebellion. Atomfall, which recently won best British game at the BAFTA Games Awards, is set during 1957, within a Quarantine Zone in the Lake District after the events of the real Windscale nuclear disaster, but with an alternate reality twist, that sees the Zone replete with strange anomalies, wandering cultists, robots and other factions who all vie for control and survival. The story, much like the game, follows a protagonist who wakes up in the Quarantine Zone with no memory of how they got there. As they desperately try to find their way out of the Quarantine Zone, they get mixed up with all sorts of bizarre, yet distinctly British characters, drawing upon classic sci-fi, folk horror, ancient mythology and 1950s nuclear paranoia. View Green Video on the source website For anyone who has read any John Wyndham novels, or has watched the likes of The Wickerman, The Quatermass Experiment or classic Doctor Who, you will feel right at home in the off-kilter world of Atomfall. We at the Radio Times Gaming were rather impressed with Atomfall and its unique investigative gameplay, as noted in our review, and found the game to feel a bit like Postman Pat meets Stalker and Fallout during a preview event. Speaking of the adaptation, writers and Executive Producers, Henry and Jack Williams of Two Brothers Pictures said "Atomfall has such a distinctive British tone and setting, and it’s been a real joy developing it alongside the Rebellion team – especially as two brothers working alongside two brothers", noting that the co-founders of Rebellion, Jason Kinglsey and Chris Kinglsey, are also brothers. Jason and Chris are also over the moon at the opportunity to bring their new IP to screen, saying, "We are delighted to be partnering with Two Brothers to bring the world of Atomfall to television. Harry and Jack demonstrated a clear love for Atomfall and talked about their own particular endings when they were playing the game." Emmy and Golden Globe recipients Henry and Jack Williams have been responsible for some of the best television in recent years, with Fleabag and The Tourist under their belts. Rebellion, founded in 1992, is best known for its Sniper Elite series, which has reached over 50 million players worldwide, but is also the publisher of the 2000 AD comic book, the home of Judge Dredd and Rogue Trooper.

Steam Deck 2: Release date speculation, latest news and rumours
All hands on deck! Just not the Deck 2, yet...
What with the excitement surrounding the Steam Controller, which just had its release date confirmed, people have been naturally curious about the Steam Deck 2, and we've got all the release date speculation, latest news and rumours that you can shake a trackpad at. There's plenty going on right now with Valve Hardware, with the Steam Machine and Steam Frame to look forward to; however, due to the RAM crisis, these have been delayed. Though a Steam Machine announcement is "getting closer", they say. Hopefully, by the time the Steam Deck 2 release date eventually rolls around, the 'RAMageddon' will be a thing of the past! But for now, it is limiting Steam Deck availability. Given just how good the Steam Deck is - especially the Steam Deck OLED - we can't wait to see what Valve will do with a successor, but wait is indeed what we will have to do, as we will get to later. But for all things Steam Deck 2, read on! Will there be a Steam Deck 2? Yes, there will be a Steam Deck 2. Whether or not it’s called Steam Deck 2, or it takes on some other moniker, is unknown, but Valve is committed to bringing a successor to its venerable handheld system to market, but not for some time yet. During the Steam hardware reveal that included the Steam Machine, VR headset Steam Frame and the Steam Controller, IGN posed the question to Valve Software engineer Pierre-Loup Griffais, who had much to say about the company’s grand vision for the Steam Deck 2, saying that they want it to be a “worthwhile enough performance upgrade to make sense as a standalone product”. But by what kind of metric? Griffais told IGN that they are “not interested in getting to a point where it's 20 or 30 or even 50% more performance at the same battery life”, but rather are looking for “a little bit more demarcated”. With a goal in mind for what to aim for, Valve is now playing the waiting game, as according to Graffais, there are “no offerings in that landscape, in the SoC [System on a Chip] landscape, that we think would truly be a next-gen performance Steam Deck.” As for how development is going, IGN asked Pierre-Loup Griffais in an interview about the Steam Controller, to which Griffais responded, "We're hard at work on it", and that "if you look at our harder projects over the years, you can draw a straight line from original Steam Controller and Steam Machines to Steam Deck to everything that we're announcing and shipping this year". As for where this leaves Steam Deck 2, Griffais said, "we expect [the] Steam Deck 2 will be a lot of the same, where a lot of what we're doing here will be learnings that build up to it." So, what kind of performance can we expect? Read on! View Green Video on the source website What will the Steam Deck 2 be like? To ascertain what kind of improvements Valve will make to the Steam Deck, we need only look to the Steam Deck OLED model, which Valve introduced in November 2023, as well as what else is going on in the wider tech world today and in the future. As for how it will look and feel, it will probably be a lot like the current Steam Deck, just more powerful and capable, so expect to see a Steam Deck 2 verification program and the like, such as there will be for the Steam Frame. What display will the Steam Deck 2 have? The Steam Deck OLED, as you may have guessed, introduced an OLED panel that not only produces lovely colours and features brilliant HDR capabilities, but it also upped the refresh rate to 90Hz, up from 60Hz on the original Steam Deck, all whilst drawing less power. What’s missing from that display, however, is variable refresh rate (VRR) support, which automatically adjusts the display's refresh rate to match the framerate of the content shown. This can cause effects such as screen-tearing and juddery gameplay, whereas VRR completely smooths this out. With that in mind, we can realistically assume that the Steam Deck 2 will have an OLED panel with a high-refresh rate (possibly 120Hz) and be VRR capable. As for the resolution, this may be one area where Valve opts to keep things the same. The original Steam Deck is 800p, which works massively in its favour, as any increase in resolution is going to knock both performance and battery life, so sticking with a lower-res screen means that any bump in horsepower is going into better settings, framerate, or a combination of the two. Whilst it may not be super-sharp, 800p is completely acceptable for smaller displays. The increase in resolution isn’t as appreciable as it is for larger screens, such as going from a 1080p monitor to a 4K one. How powerful will the Steam Deck 2 be? We can reasonably expect the Steam Deck 2 to be upwards of twice as powerful as the original Steam Deck. For example, if a game runs at 30 FPS on the original Steam Deck, the Steam Deck 2 might be able to run it at 60FPS at the same settings, but new tech could see much more drastic improvements elsewhere, especially when it comes to newer games. More on that later. But, as for the guts that will make up the Steam Deck 2 internals, we can assume a bump in memory. If the Steam Deck 2 is to retain an 800p display, 24GB of memory, which is shared between the CPU and integrated GPU, would be sufficient. This means the Steam Deck 2 shouldn’t run into any video memory-induced performance hitches, such as when games start to stutter as they max out the frame buffer with high-res textures and the like. What SoC will be powering all this remains to be seen, as Valve itself has stated that such a chip does not exist yet. We do know a great deal of what this SoC will be capable of, however, at least in terms of technologies. The Steam Deck uses an AMD SoC, and it’s very likely Valve will stick with them going into the future. Owing to Sony and AMD's Amethyst partnership, we know what to expect in the years going forward. The upcoming PlayStation 6 and much-rumoured PlayStation handheld will utilise the latest AMD tech, with GPUs that are much more akin to what we’ve seen from Nvidia in the past few years. View oEmbed on the source website This means much-improved ray-tracing capabilities and machine-learning-based upscaling and frame-generation (such as FSR4 seen in RDNA 4 products, such as the AMD 9070 XT). Currently, the Steam Deck can only make do with AMD’s FSR3 or Intel XeSS DP4a, which aren’t as advanced as Nvidia’s DLSS, AMD’s own FSR4 or Intel’s main branch of XeSS and don’t come anywhere close to providing the kind of image quality achieved by the latter. This is all to say that the Steam Deck 2 will be able to play much more demanding games owing to an increase in sheer grunt, being more performant in tasks such as ray-tracing, as well as by running games at a lower resolution before improving the image with upscaling. Frame generation can improve the perceived smoothness of a game, but it won’t actually be running the game any faster. Frame generation looks at two frames and generates one or more frames between these two, based on trained algorithms that can reliably predict what it would have looked like with the help of colour information and motion vectors. Frame generation is best used when your input frame rate is high enough, though, as otherwise controls will feel vague and muddy, but typically you can see an almost doubling of the output framerate, which would suit a 120Hz panel. Don’t expect path-traced Cyberpunk 2077 anytime soon, but you may be able to turn on some ray-traced effects, as the Steam Deck 2 GPU will be RDNA 5 or UDNA-based, which are the future graphics technology platforms AMD is working towards. In conjunction, the fact that Sony may be working on a handheld console (as evidenced by the PS5 power save mode), as well as the fact that many developers will want to target the Nintendo Switch 2, bodes well for how future games will run on the Steam Deck 2. The catch with all this is that a SoC that can incorporate these technologies whilst still being efficient and offering the massively improved battery life of the Steam Deck OLED, which Valve has comitted to, is some years off. Steam Deck 2 release date speculation We speculate that the Steam Deck 2 will release in 2028. As we have already stipulated, the Steam Deck 2 is intrinsically tied to the development of the PlayStation 6, the rumoured PlayStation handheld and AMD’s RDNA 5/UDNA graphics technology. We can realistically expect the PlayStation 6 to release in 2027 at the earliest, but with the ongoing pricing crisis for components, Sony could potentially let this slip into 2028. For context, the PlayStation 4 came out in 2013, with the PS5 hitting the market at the tail end of 2020, with the PS3 preceding the PS4 by seven years as well, hence 2027. Typically, with new graphics technologies, we see the top-line models, such as the Nvidia RTX 5090, release first, so even with AMD revealing RDNA 5/UDNA, it may take additional time to see the tech work its way down to lower-tier products, such as an SoC that features a processor and integrated GPU. Valve will also be competing with Sony and Microsoft for AMD SoCs when they launch their next-generation consoles, with AMD itself then competing against the likes of Apple and Nvidia, who will be placing orders with chip fabricators such as TSMC, which are always in high demand. Working in Valve’s favour is that it will be able to place an order for millions of chips, owing to the success of the original Steam Deck, but it still won’t be anywhere near what Sony, Nvidia or Apple will want, making it less of a priority. How much will the Steam Deck 2 cost? Steam Deck 2 price speculation The Steam Deck 2 is likely to cost as much as the higher-tier Steam Decks. Back when Valve was first designing the Steam Deck, Valve went to great lengths to make it as affordable as possible, with CEO Gabe Newell saying that hitting the £349 price point for the original 64GB LCD Steam Deck was “painful”. Then, after launch, Valve was surprised to see how many opted for the 512GB Steam Deck with the etched anti-glare screen, which cost £569. This will no doubt have informed Valve on what prospective buyers prioritise, and will probably result in a more feature-rich, albeit expensive, successor. One also has to take inflation into consideration, and the fact that manufacturers who make components such as memory modules won’t let go of the currently inflated prices without a fight. We also don’t know if Valve will opt for multiple editions as it has done with the original Steam Deck, or will opt for a single version. With all this in mind, we can probably expect the Steam Deck 2 to cost around £569 to £659. As of writing, we still don't know how much the Steam Machine will cost, but when pricing is announced, we may be able to get a better sense of what to expect. How will the Steam Deck 2 work with other Steam hardware? With the upcoming Steam Machine and Steam Frame, it does outwardly appear that Valve is creating something of an ecosystem, which is true in a sense, but it makes more sense to remove the hardware from the equation and think of Steam itself being the platform. Steam is hardware agnostic, in that it runs on just about anything, save for consoles (for now). If you have used Steam, you will know that things such as saves will be transferred between systems, so if you log into another machine, or your computer completely dies and you install Steam on a new system, you would still retain mission-critical data. Also, if you have a Steam game installed on one device and want it on another, Valve will download it directly from that device rather than from the internet, provided they are on the same network. What separates the Steam Deck, Steam Machine and Steam Frame is that they run on a Linux-based operating system called SteamOS, but really, you could install whatever you want on them. You can also install SteamOS on other devices, such as handhelds or AMD-based laptops and desktop computers, if you want to make your own Steam Machine. You can use a Steam Deck as a controller for other devices running Steam, such as a Steam Machine or Steam Frame, but the most interesting use case for the interoperability of the Steam hardware family would be to connect the Steam Frame to the Steam Deck 2 to stream VR titles from it, but you would get a much better experience from a gaming laptop if mobility was of concern. So really, Steam, as we have known and loved it for over twenty years now, is the glue that binds all this hardware together. Read more: Valve reveals new Steam hardware — All Steam ahead!

GTA 6 Trailer 3 rumours explained: When could it happen?
With each passing day, we're getting closer to the Grand Theft Auto 6 release date, which also just happens to mean that we're closer to when the GTA 6 trailer 3 will drop, and we've got all the rumours explained to see when it could happen. Amusingly, we have a better grip on the GTA 6 release date than we do on trailer 3, despite Grand Theft Auto 6 getting delayed twice, something Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick reckons was "worth it". But such is the excitement surrounding GTA 6 that trailer 1 and trailer 2 racked up over 430 million views on YouTube, with trailer 2 hitting over 10 million in under two hours. Despite both trailers only coming to a combined 257 seconds, they certainly kept us busy, as we examined every pixel for new details, such as old (yet new) faces returning, brand new characters and every last blade of grass and crack in the pavement in the GTA 6 map. But, as for when we might see GTA 6 trailer 3 drop, read on! GTA 6 trailer 3 rumours explained: When could it happen? There are a couple of decently plausible rumours floating around that indicate when GTA trailer 3 could drop. The first is from Tom Henderson of Insider Gaming, who maintains that the third trailer won't arrive until the tail end of summer. During Insider Gaming Weekly, Henderson said, "I’m still sticking to my guns from what we said a few weeks ago, which is that I don’t think they’re going to release the trailer, the next trailer, until actual summer". This would make sense, as GTA 6 won't come out until November, so there is little point in stoking the already runaway hype train by making more trailers than they have to. However, if Rockstar were to release another trailer before then, we could see the developers do so around the time of the next Take-Two earnings call, which the company has been known to do in the past, with GTA 6 trailer 2 coming 10 days before the May 2025 earnings call. As spotted on the GTA 6 subreddit, Take-Two recently announced that its next earnings call will take place on 22 May 2026, which is fairly close to "actual summer", as Henderson describes it, but realistically, we will probably see a steady cadence of trailers and media releases in the run-up to launch, be it a story trailer, launch trailer, or just snippets posted to socials. When could GTA 6 Trailer 3 release? If these rumours are to be believed, then GTA 6 trailer 3 could release early August or around 22 May when the next Take-Two earnings call takes place. There is, of course, Summer Game Fest 2026, which will take place in June, though such is the draw of Grand Theft Auto 6 that it seems unlikely Rockstar would bother sharing an event with other developers and publishers. As we have seen, when Rockstar delayed GTA 6, the rest of the industry course-corrected. For the foreseeable, we are going to be working on the Rockstar clock. As for now, why not watch GTA 6 trailer 2 for the millionth time?

Saros release date, launch time and what to expect
Saros marks the returnal of Housemarque, and we’ve got everything you need to know about the Saros release date, launch time and what to expect so you can hit the roguelike ground running! Housemarques previous game, Returnal, released in April 2021, and was a great early title for the nascent system, winning four BAFTAs, including best game and best performer for Jane Perry. In today's age of extremely long development cycles, it’s great to see Housemarque return with another game this generation, something that can’t be taken for granted these days. The game has reviewed well, and is a bit more approachable for players new to the bullet hell genre as opposed to Returnal, which relished in its brutality. But, for all things Saros, read on! When is the Saros release date? The Saros release date is Thursday 30 April, or 28 April for those who pre-ordered the Digital Deluxe Edition. If a couple of early days with Saros sounds like your bag, then you can scroll on down to our pre-order section to see where you can get the game from. If you ordered a physical version, then it will arrive sometime on 30 April, depending on when your postie or courier usually arrives where you live. When is the Saros launch time? Saros launches midnight 12am in your local timezone. This means that folk living in places such as New Zealand will be able to go hands-on with the game ahead of most others, so if you are desperate to play Saros first, then you will need to book your flights. This quirk of living on a spherical planet means that if you live in American Samoa, which is UTC-12:00, you will only be able to play Saros a whopping 24 hours after a New Zealander, who lives in the far-flung future of UTC+12:00. The more you know! Can I pre-order Saros? Yes, Saros is available for pre-order There are three different versions available for purchase: the physical Standard Edition, the digital Standard Edition and the Digital Deluxe Edition. There is a pre-order bonus, the Hands of Shore Armour, but it’s not clear if it is included in the physical edition. Buy Saros Standard Edition (Physical Copy) for PS5 from Amazon Buy Saros Standard Digital Edition for PS5 from the PlayStation Store Saros Digital Deluxe Edition If you opt for the Digital Deluxe Edition of Saros, you will get the following: AROS Digital Deluxe Edition Hands of Shore Armour ASTRA Armour Midgard Armour Onryo Armour 48 hours of early access (if pre-ordered) And if you think that’s a worthwhile deal, you can get it from the link below! Buy Saros Digital Deluxe Edition for PS5 from the PlayStation Store View Green Video on the source website Which consoles and platforms can play Saros? Saros is a PlayStation 5 exclusive and is currently only available on Sony’s current-gen console. Housemarque’s last game, Returnal, did eventually make its way to PC, but there have been rumblings in the industry that Sony is walking away from PC ports, as reported by Jason Schreier for Bloomberg. This remains to be seen, but it could be that Saros remains on the PS5 and future Sony consoles. Saros gameplay and story details View oEmbed on the source website Saros sees you take control of Arjun Devraj, played by Rahul Kohli (Midnight Mass), who, according to developers Housemarque, is "a powerful Soltari Enforcer who will stop at nothing to find who he is looking for". Devraj and his team of colonists are exploring the planet Carcosa, which continually changes due to a perpetual solar eclipse. Saros is inspired by Hindu mythology and cosmology, giving it a distinctive look that is oft not seen in video games. Gameplay is quite similar to that of Housemarque’s prior game, Returnal, featuring cheek-clenching bullet hell action. Saros is a bit less punishing than Returnal, however, as you carry forward new abilities and weapons, rather than starting from scratch each run. Is there a Saros trailer? View oEmbed on the source website There are plenty of Saros trailers to peruse, but we’ve included the launch trailer as it is the most recent. We also have a gameplay overview trailer embedded further up the page if you want to see more of the game in action.

Resident Evil movie gets confirmed release date and shiny new website
When looking back at the Resident Evil films of the past, it can be hard to be enthused for future instalments, but going by trailer reactions at CinemaCon and the talent behind it, we might actually be looking forward to the Resident Evil movie now, which has just had its release date confirmed. We’re not the only ones, as Leon Kennedy actor Nick Apostolides is “cautiously optimistic” for the upcoming zombie-romp from Weapons director Zach Cregger. To mark the release date confirmation, there is now a Resident Evil movie website, but there is not much to go on, other than a logo, the release date and that Resident Evil will be showing in IMAX. View Green Video on the source website Certainly, there is a lot of hype surrounding the franchise at the moment, as Resident Evil Requiem has sold over 7 million copies since it launched, with director Koshi Nakanishi posting an image to his story with Requiem-themed cakes. View oEmbed on the source website Developers Capcom aren’t done with Requiem, either, as we have an upcoming DLC to look forward to, which will feature extra story content. An update in March also added a photo mode, and another upcoming update is to add a new combat-focused mini-game, but it’s not entirely clear if this is going to be a Mercenaries mode, which has been included in Resident Evil games for decades at this point. But as for when we can see Cregger’s vision come to life? The Resident Evil movie will release in cinemas on 18 September 2026. No one is quite sure what the plot of the film is – there are certainly lots of Resident Evil games to drawn upon for inspiration – but what’s for sure is that seeing T-Virus monsters in IMAX will probably be quite the unsettling experience. But, September is still some months away, so be sure to check out all the upcoming video game releases in 2026 and beyond to find something to pass the time with!

007 First Light star "is sure" that Bond game actor is "under consideration" for the movie role
There has been much debate over the last few years over just who should pick up the James Bond mantle after Daniel Craig, but one 007 First Light actor reckons the man is staring Amazon and MGM in the face. Lennie James plays John Greenway, Bond’s mentor in 007 First Light, so it’s safe to say the man knows the ins and outs of what makes a good MI6 agent. During the BAFTA Games Awards 2026, actor Lennie James presented Jennifer English with the best performer award for her portrayal of Maelle in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Before this, however, the Radio Times Gaming team managed to catch up with James on the red carpet, where we talked about all things 007, and he reckons young Bond actor, Patrick Gibson should be in the running, saying "the people in control would be mad" if he isn’t already. View oEmbed on the source website That’s quite the statement, but James is absolutely certain, saying Gibson is "fantastic in our version of Bond, and I genuinely think he should be a candidate for the main role that they're trying to find someone for". Perhaps with Lenny Kravitz featuring as the 007 First Light villain, we'll get to see him pop up in a future Bond movie, too. If Gibson doesn’t get picked for the films, it seems like he’ll still be able to play Bond for a good while yet, as 007 First Light developers IO Interactive have teased future sequels that would feature him. In an interview, 007 First Light senior producer Theuns Smit said development was "like a hand fitting into a glove" after making Hitman, so the will is definitely there. With Lana Del Rey having put out a Bond anthem, who Bond composer David Arnold said was a perfect fit, it would seem strange for the buck to stop with the first game. Hopefully, it is a critical and commercial success, so that Gibson can Bond it up ad infinitum. Sadly, Nintendo-stans won’t be able to experience Gibson as young Bond for themselves until the summer, as 007 First Light has been delayed for the Switch 2 And if IO Interactive does continue with 007 First Light sequels, we reckon they can learn a thing or two from the James Bond novels, despite the game not being official canon.

Steam Maintenance explained: When is it and why do Valve do it?
We get it; you want to play games, but ol’ Steam isn’t responding. Fortunately, it should be back up soon, but whilst you’re waiting, we’ve got Steam Maintenance explained, including when it is and why Valve does it. Judging by all the hardware announcements Valve has made, including unveiling the Steam Controller release date, you might be surprised that anyone at the company even has time to work on Steam, but given that the platform recently hit 41 million users online, you best believe that levers are being pulled. Perhaps the eventual arrival of the Steam Machine and Steam Frame will help bump those numbers up. Certainly, Valve made PC gaming more accessible and easier to pick up and play with the Steam Deck. Perhaps the Steam Deck 2 will push that number up even higher. But as for all things Steam Maintenance, read on! When is Steam Maintenance? Steam Maintenance typically takes place on Tuesday between 9pm GMT to 11pm GMT. Steam maintenance itself only lasts for around ten minutes, though sometimes it can be upwards of an hour. During this time, Steam functionality can go down, such as the Steam Community, online services and multiplayer. As for why Valve opts to do Steam Maintenance during inconvenient hours for Europeans, on the Steam Support page, Valve says "Our peak user load is around 12:00 PT (Pacific Time), and our lowest user count is around 23:00 PT", which is between 8pm GMT and 7am GMT. What is Steam Maintenance? Steam Maintenance is Steam getting maintained (mic drop). If you play games such as Fortnite, you’ll know that they typically go offline for a short while in order to implement patches, fixes and new content, and Steam is no different! Unlike Fortnite, however, there are usually no flashy new features added to Steam. Speaking to this, Valve said "Sometimes, we take the servers down in order to perform maintenance. We might be patching software for security issues, updating operating systems or drivers, or installing new hardware, for example. These activities don't result in new features, but allow Steam to continue to run stably and efficiently."

Steam Controller release date, price, pre-orders and specs
The release date is out of our control(ler).
After early reviews revealed the price and release date, suggesting that a Steam Controller launch was imminent, we now have official confirmation on the Steam Controller release date and price. In the run-up to the Steam Controller release date, much was said of its capabilities, with one developer praising its 'Mac-like' trackpads, and soon, we will all be able to try it for ourselves. The Steam Controller will be immediately familiar to anyone who has used a Steam Deck, which features two trackpads and allows for more mouse-like input, as opposed to just trying to use the analogue sticks. If you love gaming on the Steam Deck and wish you could have those controls on any PC, then the Steam Controller is for you. Initially, the Steam Controller was supposed to launch alongside the Steam Machine, but delays owing to 'RAMageddon' have caused Valve to release the Steam Controller ahead of the PC-console hybrid, though we are apparently getting closer to a Steam Machine announcement. Hopefully, we can expect the same with the Steam Frame too. But, as for the Steam Controller release date, pirce, specs and more, read on! When is the Steam Controller release date? The Steam Controller release date is Monday 4 May, 6pm GMT. View oEmbed on the source website The release date was accidentally revealed by a review going up early, but we now know the official timing, courtesy of Valve. Being at 6pm, hopefully you will be home from work or school so you can get your order in, but you can always use the Steam app on your phone on the sly! Can I pre-order the Steam Controller? No, you cannot pre-order the Steam Controller as it becomes available for purchase Monday 6pm, 4 May 2026. You can, however, wishlist the Steam Controller on Steam so that you are notified the moment it becomes available to do so, or to buy it if Valve skips pre-orders entirely. As we have said for both the Steam Machine and Steam Frame, it is not known whether or not Valve will use a reservation system as it did when the Steam Deck was first introduced. Controllers have fewer market-constrained components, so hopefully Valve will have just been able to mass-produce enough units for a general launch. How much is the Steam Controller? The Steam Controller costs £85/$99. This places it between a DualSense (£65) and a DualSense Edge Controller (£199.99) in terms of price, whilst offering unique inputs. Whether or not that is worth it for you is another question. There are plenty of cheap and well-rated controllers for PC, though they do not offer the same flexibility as the Steam Controller with its novel trackpads, nor will it integrate so seamlessly with Steam. Can I buy the Steam Controller separately? Yes, the Steam Controller can be bought separately. You do not need to purchase a Steam Machine in order to get your hands on the Steam Controller. This was the case with the original Steam Controller back in 2015 as well. It makes sense, as many people's gaming PCs and laptops will be a great deal more performant than the Steam Machine, but will want the unique controller inputs. There was a worry that they would be hard to get our hands on without buying a Steam Machine, but it does appear that it might release before the PC-console hybrid does. What's more, as spotted by Brad Lynch on X, Valve recently received a large quantity of "Wireless PC Controller". View oEmbed on the source website Others online reported this to be 14 tonnes, so hopefully stock will be plentiful. Can I use the Steam Controller on PlayStation, Xbox or Switch? No, you cannot use the Steam Controller on other consoles such as PlayStation 5, Xbox Series consoles or the Nintendo Switch or Switch 2. As Valve stipulates on the Steam Controller product page, the Steam Controller only "works with any PC or device running Steam or the Steam Link app. This includes Windows, Mac, and Linux PCs, as well as tablets and smartphones". Still, that’s a huge market, and on PC, you can add non-steam games to the Steam launcher, enabling the usage of Steam Input to get your controller setup just the way you like it. View Green Video on the source website What is the Steam Controller? Specs explained The Steam Controller is essentially a Steam Deck with the screen and computing internals removed. It has all the usual controller inputs, such as ABXY buttons, a D-pad, analogue sticks, shoulder buttons and back buttons, but it also has two trackpads, a feature which distinguishes the Steam Deck from other PC handhelds. These trackpads make it easier to play games that traditionally require the use of a mouse, such as strategy games. Though you can play first-person shooters with an analogue stick, it's typically far less precise than with a mouse or trackpad. However, the included analogue sticks are rather swanky, as they are magnetic thumbsticks (TMR), making them super reliable, with stick-drift eliminated as they are continuously calibrated. There is also gyro-aiming, enabled by the included gyroscope. This also affords you precise mouse-like input, and it’s best visualised by thinking of how you would use a Wiimote on the Nintendo Wii, though the way you manipulate the Steam Controller is different. The Steam Controller knows when you are holding it, too, with two capacitive areas along the back of the handles and capacitive thumbsticks, so you can assign gyro-aim to only be enabled when your left thumb is on the left analogue stick, for example. The Steam Controller can connect to devices via Bluetooth, or an included charging puck, which offers a more reliable connection with lower-latency. For a detailed breakdown of what exactly makes up the Steam Controller, check out the specs below: Steam Controller specs Controls and Input Gamepad controls – A B X Y buttons, D-pad, L & R analog triggers, L & R bumpers, View & Menu buttons, Steam & QAM buttons, 4x assignable grip buttons Thumbsticks – 2x full-size magnetic thumbsticks (TMR) with capacitive touch Haptics – 4x haptic motors, 2x LRA haptic motors in trackpads for HD tactile feedback, 2x High output LRA haptic motors in grips for HD game haptics including rumble Trackpads – 2x 34.5mm square trackpads with haptic feedback, pressure-sensitive for configurable click strength Gyro – 6-axis IMU Grip Sense – 2x capacitive areas along back of Steam Controller handles Connectivity Steam Controller Puck – 2.4GHz Wireless connection, ~8ms full end-to-end, 4ms polling rate (measured at 5m). Up to 4 Steam Controllers per Steam Controller Puck. Steam Controller Puck connects to PC via USB-C Bluetooth – Bluetooth 4.2 minimum, 5.0 or higher recommended USB – USB-C tethered play Power Charging – Steam Controller Puck charging interface, USB-C connector Battery – 8.39 Wh Li-ion battery (35+ hours of gameplay). Battery life for tracked gameplay with Steam Frame is reduced Size and Weight Size – Steam Controller: 111mm x 159mm x 57mm. Steam Controller Puck: 50mm x 28mm x 9mm Weight – Steam Controller: 292g, Steam Controller Puck: 16g Read more: Valve reveals new Steam hardware — All Steam ahead!

To use cheat codes in The Sims 4, you first need to enable cheats in the game itself. Be warned, though: enabling cheats will mean that achievements or trophies will be turned off in this particular save, so it's worth making a backup save before turning them on. On PC, bring up the cheat menu by pressing Ctrl + Shift + C. Once there, enter testingCheats true and cheats will be enabled in this particular save. On Mac, you can bring up the cheat menu by pressing CMD + Shift + C. Then enter testingCheats true to enable cheats on that particular save. On Xbox One or Xbox Series X/S, you can access the cheat menu by pressing and holding LT + RT + LB + RB for a couple of seconds. This will bring up the cheat menu, into which you need to type testingCheats true to enable cheats in this save. On PS4 and PS5, you need to press and hold L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 to summon the cheat menu. When it appears, type in testingCheats true and cheats will then be enabled in this world. How to use The Sims 4 cheat codes Enabling cheats is one thing, but using The Sims 4 cheats is another kettle of fish. The main way you'll use cheat codes in The Sims 4 is: Open the game and load up a world Bring up the cheat menu (by pressing Ctrl + Shift + C on PC, or holding down all the shoulder buttons on console) Enter testingCheats true and press Done, if you haven't already Type the relevant cheat code into the little text box in the top-left corner of the screen Press Done, and the cheat will take effect The only exceptions to this system are the Interaction Cheats, which are activated in a slightly different way. You still need to be in a world with testingCheats true activated, but then you need to follow the steps below (depending on your platform of choice). View Affiliate Playlist on the source website To use The Sims 4 Interaction Cheats on PS4 or PS5, with testingCheats true already activated, hover the cursor over a Sim or an object, hold down Circle and then press X to bring up the Interaction Cheats menu. On Xbox One or Xbox Series X/S, once you have testingCheats true turned on, hold down B and then press A to summon the Interaction Menu. On PC, after activating testingCheats true, hold shift and then click on the Sim/item in question - this will make the Interaction Cheats menu appear, and you can choose from a variety of cheats that it will list for you. All the other cheats in the game can just be typed into the cheat console as we discussed before. For the full list of what you can do, read on!

Alien: Isolation sequel gets first-look teaser trailer which hints at setting
Playing Alien in isolation is not recommended; too scary.
When Alien: Isolation 2 was first announced back in 2024, there was a post on X (formerly Twitter) to mark the occasion as part of Alien Day celebrations, but now, we have a short teaser trailer that offers us the very first glimpse of the highly anticipated upcoming sequel. The original game came out in 2014, and stunned (and terrified) us all with its incredible visuals and dastardly smart Xenomorph AI that would sniff you out, or even listen to your whimpers via microphones on the console versions. Since then, Alien: Isolation has been released on just about every conceivable platform, meaning many have gotten to enjoy it in the years since, with many of us clamouring for a new game. As for the Alien: Isolation 2 trailer, developers Creative Assembly (the same folks who make the Total War games) posted a video to YouTube titled "False Sense of Security", which sums up that very moment you thought the Xenomorph wasn’t around in the first game. View oEmbed on the source website Though the trailer appears quite opaque at first, we can deduce quite a bit from the short snippet of presumably in-engine footage. The trailer opens zooming in on a set of blast doors in what appears to be a Weyland-Yutani-style outpost, like that of Hadley’s Hope in James Cameron’s Aliens. The facility is in a state of disrepair, with water leaking from the ceiling. A flashing orange light on the door turns to green, and the blast doors open to reveal the outside. This is where a few things become apparent. There is shrubbery in the foreground, and trees in the distance that are getting blown in the wind, not to mention the pouring rain. Last year saw the release of the Disney+ series, Alien: Earth, which, as the name implies, is set on dear ol’ Terra. Now, trees and plants don’t necessarily indicate that Alien: Isolation 2 could take place on Earth, it could simply take place on a terraformed planet, but it's not entirely out of the question. Finally, the trailer concludes with a close-up of an emergency telephone, which were used in the original to save the game. Whilst not pertinent to the setting, the trailer is at 60 FPS, which is noteworthy as Alien: Isolation 2 is using Unreal Engine 5, which the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S can struggle with. The original was lauded for its optimisation, and Creative Assembly has the original lead engine programmer, Michael Bailey, working on this sequel, according to FRVR, which, in combination with engine improvements from Epic, probably indicates that Alien: Isolation 2 will be a smooth performer. We may even see a Nintendo Switch 2 port, if we’re lucky, as many of the environments of the original were quite constrained. Creative Assembly were also using Unreal Engine for its cancelled Hyenas game, meaning they have quite a bit of experience with the engine now. All told, Alien: Isolation 2 will no doubt scare us all silly.

Steam Machine announcement 'is getting closer' according to reports
Just one more delay, bro. I promise, bro. Just one more delay and we'll have all the Steam Machines, bro.
It might not be Half-Life 3, but nonetheless, Valve-land is awash with rumours, leaks and early reviews, which have sent the internet at large into a tizzy over a potential Steam Machine announcement, which may be closer than we expect if reports are to be believed. Certainly, it appears the Steam Controller launch may be imminent, as, in something of an oopsie, early reviews revealed the potential price and release date. But, if the Steam Controller is coming, what is happening with the Steam Machine? Alongside the Steam Controller, the Steam machine and Steam Frame received store pages on the Komodo Station website, which is the official retailer of Valve products in Asia. As noted by VR enthusiast Brad Lynch on X (formerly Twitter), only the Steam Controller received new web assets. View oEmbed on the source website Valve has already delayed the Steam Machine and Steam Frame owing to the memory pricing crisis dubbed ‘RAMageddon’, as revealed in the Steam hardware FAQ, but according to Mike Straw of Insider Gaming, Valve may opt to eat some of the costs in order to get the PC-console hybrid out the door. In a news piece about the Steam Controller reviews going live early, Mike Straw said, "I’m to understand that Valve is getting closer to confirming everything. They’ve been going back and forth internally on pricing and whether they would be willing to take a loss on the cost, at least in the short term," adding that "It’s unclear what decision has been made, but the internal belief is that an announcement on a release is getting closer." In the run-up to the launch of the Steam Deck, Valve CEO Gabe Newell described getting the base model to £349/$359 as "painful", but it was never clear if it was at a loss, cost, or had the teeniest of margins. There is a real risk of selling the Steam Machine at a loss, however, as scalpers could buy them to strip them of components, or businesses could buy them and deploy them as relatively cheap enterprise computers. View Green Video on the source website For the Steam Deck, Valve employed a reservation system that was tied to your account, and it cost money to reserve, though this cost was assimilated into the final price of the Steam Deck. This was likely implemented due to the supply constraints brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. We'll likely see Valve employ this again in order to avoid scalpers, so if you want a Steam Machine, you should be able to get your hands on one, though you may have to wait a while depending on where in the reservation queue you are.

Early Steam Controller reviews reveal potential price and possible release date
Valve must have Steam coming out of its ears over this...
There was a flurry of activity regarding Valve’s upcoming Steam-Deck-with-the-screen-chopped-out input device over the weekend, stoking the hype train firebox and leading many to believe that the Steam Controller could launch imminently. The proposed launch appears to be ahead of the Steam Machine and Steam Frame, which Valve announced alongside the Steam Controller, but have since been delayed owing to those devices being price-sensitive to ‘RAMageddon’, which has sent memory module prices skyrocketing. The Steam Controller was always going to be available separately, but it is interesting to see Valve potentially opt to release it before the Steam Machine. As for buying one, you may need to fork out, as according to an early review from TechyTalk that has since been deleted, the Steam Controller will reportedly cost $99. View oEmbed on the source website People move fast on the internet, and it was all over the GamingLeaksAndRumours subreddit before the video was taken down. As the review notes, that would be only $25 more than a DualSense controller, and it’s well short of the “Pro” controllers on offer from Microsoft and Sony, such as the Elite 2 and DualSense Edge, while offering more versatility owing to the trackpads that have been described as ‘Mac-like’. What’s more, another review popped up before being deleted, this time from Japanese website 4Gamer, which suggested a Steam Controller release date of 4 May. This follows a new store page going live for the Steam Controller on Komodo Station, the official retailer of Valve hardware in Asia. View oEmbed on the source website Before Valve announced its new hardware, people managed to find out what the folks at Bellevue were up to, as it could be found on Komodo Station, so we may see even more details pop up in the coming days. It should be noted that, whilst this information comes from seemingly legit sources, Valve ultimately could change its plans whenever it wants to, and so neither the price nor date is set in stone, until it is.

Leon Kennedy actor is "cautiously optimistic" for Resident Evil movie
Apostolides thinks the film might be in good nick.
With Resident Evil Requiem being a smash hit for Capcom, reaching new heights for the series, it further highlights just how naff a lot of the Resident Evil films were, and how IP might ultimately be best suited to the medium of video games, as Ben Starr believes Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is. However, there is another Resident Evil film in the works from Weapons director Zach Cregger, with Austin Abrams acting as the lead. Arguably, Resident Evil’s most famous protagonist is none other than Leon S Kennedy, and so during the BAFTA Games Awards 2026, Radio Times caught up with the man behind the new voice of Leon, Nick Apostolides, to gauge his thoughts on the upcoming movie. "I am very cautiously optimistic." Apostolides told us, adding that "I've been let down in the past". Apostolides can dare to dream owing to Cregger being attached to the project, saying that "If there's one director who is not going to let me down, I think it's going to be this guy." Apostolides has been a fan of Cregger’s work for some time, saying ,"I love Cregger’s work, and I trust that he's going to make a good film first and foremost, and it will have Resident Evil elements in it. So I'm very, very curious, actually." Actor Ashleigh Morghan was also in attendance, and concedes that she actually "liked the Resident Evil movies", noting that she thought "the first was pretty good," though views it more as "a DLC to the game" as it is not "a direct copy of the game, but I thought they were fun." Recently at CinemaCon, Cregger showed the first trailer for the Resident Evil movie, and Morghan said that the reception was positive, saying that "there's a lot of tension, and it's a good horror movie, and that Raccoon City might just be like the only character in it." And much like Apostolides, Morghan reckons "Zach Cregger knows what he’s doing, and he's not going to ruin a 30-year franchise because he knows how much it means to people." But however Morghan might feel about the prospects of the film, she concedes, "I'm excited to watch it vicariously because I'm afraid".

Microsoft scraps ‘Microsoft Gaming’ branding for Xbox instead
After announcing that Microsoft would be slashing Game Pass prices, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma has announced during a town hall all-hands meeting that the company is shedding the ‘Microsoft Gaming’ moniker, and is instead bringing back Xbox, putting the brand’s identity front and centre in a way that it has not in recent years. As reported by The Verge, Microsoft Gaming came to be in 2022 when the division revealed it wanted to acquire Activision Blizzard King. At this time, Microsoft Gaming, as it was known, was under the stewardship of Phil Spencer, who recently resigned, with Sharma taking his place. Speaking of the change, Sharma said that “Xbox needs to be our identity”. Sharma promised a “return of Xbox”, and this call to action has started to appear all over the Microsoft Campus. View oEmbed on the source website Not only that, but there appears to be a new Xbox logo, which harkens back to the original Xbox and Xbox 360 logos, making it something of a statement of intent. Recently, Radio Times Gaming were flown to Los Angeles to attend the launch party of a new Fanta flavour, Crimson Sour Cherry, released in collaboration with Xbox, which further signals confidence in the brand going forward. When Sharma was appointed, she was initially met with scepticism, as she comes from an AI background, and online commenters were quick to try and point out a perceived lack of ‘gamer credentials’, and what they thought to be ‘suspicious’ account behaviour, in that it seemed it wasn’t just Sharma using her account. To alleviate any fears, Sharma said that it was her family playing games and went on the record to say that "we will not flood our ecosystem with soulless AI slop". This is all in the midst of beleaguered hardware sales, and Call of Duty not performing as well as it once did, making the multi-billion-dollar investment seem short-sighted in retrospect, even if we are getting a CoD movie. So far, there have only been positive signals coming from Xbox, including more details emerging about the next-generation Xbox, dubbed ‘Project Helix’. View Green Video on the source website Sharma has also called into question the perceived benefits of moving away from console exclusivity, with Bethesda’s Starfield the latest to make the jump to the PlayStation 5. Of course, the proof is in the pudding, and there is some time yet until we see the next Xbox, but certainly, the line-up of upcoming Xbox games, such as Forza Horizon 6, Gears of War: E-Day and Fable, all look extremely promising. However, these were set in motion many years ago, and so it may be a good while yet until we see the fruit of the newly minted Xbox Gaming labours come to bear. Perhaps we could see a world where The Elder Scrolls 6 is an Xbox exclusive, much like Morrowind was in 2002, though this was for performance reasons more than anything else. We at Radio Times Gaming will, of course, be bringing you all the latest during this turbulent time for Xbox, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, so be sure to subscribe to our newsletter to keep up to date!

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced release date, pre-orders and latest news
After many leaks, rumours, statues and hearsay, Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced has finally been properly revealed, and we've got everything you need to know from the release date, to pre-orders, platforms, gameplay, story details and even some trailers to take a gander at. A remake of the fourth mainline series entry, the original Assassin's Creed Black Flag is regarded as one of the best AC games. When it comes out, it will be a bit odd playing the Assassin's Creed games in order when you jump ahead to such brilliant graphics and back again, but if there was ever a title to revisit, it was probably Black Flag. We'll get into much more detail below, but the world is now seamless, making sailing around and landing at docks much smoother than before, which would be worth it on its own, but there are new story arcs to explore as well, taking it beyond a simple remake. But for all things Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, read on! When is the Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced release date? Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced will release 9 July 2026. No doubt, Ubisoft will have wanted to get the game out of the door ahead of Grand Theft Auto 6, which comes out in November, as it feels as if the whole world is going to be drawn in to play it. There's still some time yet before Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced comes out, though, so be sure to check out all the upcoming games in 2026 and beyond to see what you can play in the interim! Can I pre-order Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced? Yes, you can pre-order Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced.

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is coming PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Judging by Ubisoft’s efforts with Assassin’s Creed Shadows, we could see an eventual Nintendo Switch 2 port, as they will no doubt want it on as many platforms as possible. However, no such announcement has been made yet, and it could pan out that Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced is beyond what the Switch 2 is capable of. Depending on exactly when it comes out, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced may also receive a PlayStation 6 and next-gen Xbox version, with the former suggesting it would also be playable on the much-rumoured PlayStation handheld. View Green Video on the source website Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced gameplay and story details View oEmbed on the source website The original Black Flag follows protagonist Edward Kenway, captain of the Jackdaw, as he sleuths and assassinates his way around the 18th-century Caribbean, trying to unravel a conspiracy between the Templars, British and Spanish Empires, and this is much the same for Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, though with new narrative arcs and additions. Sadly, there is no multiplayer, and the Freedom Cry DLC is not included either. The star of the show, of course, is the Jackdaw, as sailing around islands in what felt like a Pirates of the Caribbean simulator is just as much fun as it was in 2013. There's now seamless travel between sailing and visiting islands, meaning the world isn't broken up by loading screens anymore. Something made possible by not being beholden to mechanical drives and the read-write speed of discs. There are three new officers to recruit, each with their own backstories to explore. Adding them to your crew adds additional abilities to your ship. What's more, you can bring a cat or monkey aboard the Jackdaw, which really is the defining feature of this remake, if we're being honest. Combat has been overhauled too, making it much more fluid, engaging and more in line with modern sensibilities. Even things such as eavesdropping have been revamped, with being discovered not bringing about an instant desync. Instead, players will have to adapt. Is there an Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced trailer? View oEmbed on the source website Yes, there is an Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Official Game Overview Trailer now available to watch. For your viewing pleasure, we have linked it just above. The trailer shows off the huge visual leap from the original, and whilst it's still a handsome game by all accounts, 2014’s Assassin’s Creed Unity was such a leap that it quickly looked old, a reminder of its 7th-generation console origins. Not so anymore, however, with Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, powered by the latest version of the Anvil engine Check out more of our Gaming coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to find out what's on.

Ben Starr reveals he wouldn't play Verso in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 movie
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 - The Movie, not starring Ben Starr.
At the BAFTAs Games Awards 2026, Radio Times Gaming had the opportunity to catch up with Ben Starr on the red carpet, who was nominated for performer in a leading role as Verso, about his outfit, pre-launch thoughts on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s success and whether or not he would be up for reprising his role in a live-action film. Whilst the best performer award ultimately went to cast mate Jennifer English as Maelle, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 won best game, and Hades 2, in which Starr, err, stars, was up for two nominations as well. We also had the chance to speak with Charlie Cox, who played Gustave, and he reckons that Robert Pattinson would be the best choice to physically portray him, but that they should still use his voice. View oEmbed on the source website But as for whether or not Starr would like to play Verso, we posed the question, and he told us "No, I don't", adding that "I don't think there needs to be a film." It seems like a big opportunity to pass up, given how successful Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has been, which writer Jennifer Svedberg-Yen and Lune actor Kirsty Rider didn’t expect, nor did Starr himself, who cautioned Monoco actor Rich Keeble about putting too much faith in the game before launch. If nothing else, it would be a good fit for an adaptation just for the simple fact that it’s a brilliant story brought to life by a great cast. Starr is quite content with his contribution, though, telling us "I got to play him in the game. I got to define the character in a way that I'm really, really happy with", and reckons that it's best that the film's director "let someone else take it over". However, everyone loves a fan cast, and we were curious who Starr would pick if he were put in charge of casting an Expedition 33 film, but he was steadfast in his resolve, telling us, "I don't know. I'll let people decide. I won't give you a definitive answer." Starr isn’t entirely opposed to the idea of a Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 film, saying that "I would love to be, of course, a part of it", but reckons the medium is what makes it special, saying "I think Expedition 33 is a brilliant video game, and that's what makes the story so impactful."

Metro 2039 release date, gameplay details and what to expect
We think the pipes might be singing, as 4A games has revealed the fourth instalment of its long running post-apocolypse train hovel simulator, and as such, we’ve got everything you need to know about the Metro 2039 release date, gameplay details, pre-orders and what to expect! Much like Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl from developers GSC Game World, the development of Metro 2039 has been impacted by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, with the real-world events shaping the story of the new title. As such, it’s an incredible feat alone that Metro 2039 exists at all. Fortunately, 4A also has offices in Malta as well as Kiev, allowing development to continue whilst those in Ukraine were affected by the war. But for all things Metro 2039, read on! When is the Metro 2039 release date? The Metro 2039 release date is Winter 2026 according to developers 4A Games. This was announced alongside the reveal of the game, but the date raised a few eyebrows, as it’s coming hot off the heels of the most anticipated game of all time, Grand Theft Auto 6, which comes out in November. We wouldn’t be surprised to see Metro 2039 be pushed back if the world is entirely consumed by GTA 6, even just by a month or so to give the game a bit more breathing room. On the other hand, Metro 2039 will be coming to PC, whereas GTA 6 won’t, not for a little while at least, but such is the draw of GTA 6 that many PC players might opt to play it on consoles first. Can I pre-order Metro 2039? No, Metro 2029 is not currently available for pre-order. You can wishlist the game on Steam, the Microsoft Store and the PlayStation Store, so that you can be notified the moment it is available. There is no word yet on any sort of deluxe or collector’s editions. Prior entries in the series have had very involved and cool collector’s editions, so you’ll definitely want to keep your eyes peeled for these. Once more information comes out, we will update you as soon as possible! View Green Video on the source website Which consoles and platforms can play Metro 2039? Metro 2039 can be played on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. On PC, it can be purchased on Steam or the Epic Games Store, but no mention has been made of GOG, suggesting the game may ship with DRM at launch. Looking at the visuals, it’s hard to say if a Nintendo Switch 2 port would be possible. 4A Games have always pushed graphics quite hard, and whilst the Nintendo Switch 2 is capable of ray-tracing, as evidenced by Star Wars Outlaws, Metro 2039 could prove a bridge too far, or incorporate features that would stretch the Switch 2 CPU beyond reasonable performance. If an announcement is made, we will eat our hats and update this page accordingly. Metro 2039 gameplay and story details View oEmbed on the source website Metro 2039 returns to the eponymous Moscow metro system and appears to be a more linear experience like Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light, as opposed to the more open-ended Metro Exodus. An authoritarian regime, the Novoreich, has taken control of subterranean Moscow, led by a Spartan prior protagonist, Artyom crossed paths with, Hunter. Players take control of the Stranger, who is “haunted by violent waking nightmares”, according to the official Metro 2039 page, and when “ghosts of his past force him out of exile, he must undertake a harrowing journey into the shattered ruins of Moscow to the one place he swore he’d never go. The Metro". The trailer above gives an overview of the themes and the conditions Ukrainian developers 4A Games worked under to create the game. Is there a Metro 2039 trailer? View oEmbed on the source website Yes, there is a Metro 2039 Gameplay Teaser trailer. This features the snippet of gameplay found in the reveal trailer linked above, and features the Stranger navigating an old Metro stop close to the surface before a couple of mutants descend on him. The Stranger retreats down the escalators before getting into a struggle with one of the mutants, which he dispatches with a knife to the neck, before being dragged into the relative safety of the Metro. The graphics look phenomenal, and it’s great to see a return to the dingy and oppressive post-apocalyptic metro system, as much fun as we had gallivanting around in Exodus.

Steam Controller launch might be imminent as Valve uploads 'secret' unboxing video
As spotted by Brad Lynch on X, Valve pushed an update to Steam that included an unboxing video of the Steam Controller. The Catch? Said video is encrypted and cannot be watched, but the filename gives it away. The unboxing will no doubt show the contents of the box, which also include a puck-like dongle to connect and charge the Steam Controller. It may also go into details of how to set the controller up, and show off its versatility when it comes to games that traditionally require mouse input. The ongoing memory pricing crisis dubbed ‘RAMageddon’ has delayed the launch of the Steam Machine and Steam Frame, which are the main show of the Steam Hardware announced in November 2025; however, the Steam Controller is not as sensitive to these market constraints and as such, many have wondered if Valve might release the Steam Controller early. View oEmbed on the source website This supposed unboxing video, alongside recent shipping details, reveal that Valve received a large quantity of wireless controllers, pointing to such a thing being very plausible at this point. View oEmbed on the source website Valve, contending with delays and massive price hikes, could do with a PR win, and an upside of releasing the Steam Controller ahead of the Steam Machine might convince more players to invest in the SteamOS ecosphere. Certainly, many are already impressed with the Steam Controller, with one developer praising its ‘Mac-like’ trackpads, similar to those found on the Steam Deck. The Steam Controller isn’t the only coveted Valve gem out in the wild, either, as a Godot XR developer has also been using one for months now to get the Godot game engine ready for its eventual launch. For those who have been using the Steam Deck, you will feel right at home with the Steam Controller, which is essentially a Steam Deck without the screen in the middle. Fortunately, we likely won’t have long to wait, as Valve hopes to bring all of the Steam Hardware in the first half of this year, but perhaps releasing the Steam Controller a little early could be a way of softening the blow of a delay to the Steam Frame and Steam Hardware.

GTA 5 cheats: Full list of cheat codes for Xbox, PS5, PS4 and PC
Have more fun with these GTA 5 cheat codes on Xbox, PC, PS4 and PS5.
We still have a few months until GTA 6 releases, so to make the most of that time, why not bust out some GTA 5 cheat codes? Of course, you could always chuck a few mods in there if you really want to go all out, but that won't help you out unless you're on PC. When it comes to cheats, you can't get much better than the likes of the GTA series and The Sims, and that's evidenced by our other cheats pages for GTA 4, GTA 3 and San Andreas. We even have some cheats for RDR1 and RDR2 if you'd prefer a wild west vibe. But for all the Grand Theft Auto 5 cheat codes you could wish for, here's the full list for PC, PlayStation and Xbox. Best GTA 5 cheat codes Our favourite GTA 5 cheat code is 1-999-BUZZOFF, which spawns a Buzzard attack chopper. Armed with miniguns and rocket pads, it's one of the best ways to cause chaos and have some mindless fun in the world. However, the best GTA 5 cheats to keep on hand are those focused on your health, weapons, and wanted levels. Regardless of the platform, bring up the phone number and enter the listed number of your cheat of choice. These are the cheat codes you'll want to know about: 1-999-887-853 [1-999-TURTLE] – Max Health and Armour 1-999-866-587 [1-999-TOOLUP] – Weapons and Ammo cheat 1-999-3844-8483 [1-999-FUGITIVE] – Raise Wanted Level 1-999-5299-3787 [1-999-LAWYERUP] – Lower Wanted Level 1-999-759-3483 [1-999-SKYDIVE] – Parachute cheat These cheats guarantee players don't run out of health, ammo, armour or weapons, and can keep those pesky cops away when they take offence to you eliminating half the population of Los Santos – or will even let players goad them into a high-stakes chase, just to demonstrate their immense power. A GTA money cheat would definitely make it into this list, but you'll need to find other ways to make money in GTA 5 as Rockstar hasn't added any money cheats. Stuck in a tight spot? These are also some handy ones to keep close: 1-999-727-4348 [1-999-RAPIDGT] - Spawn a sports car 1-999-762-538 [1-999-ROCKET] - Spawn a motorbike 1-999-2899-633 [1-999-BUZZOFF] - Spawn a helicopter 1-999-332-3393 [1-999-DEADEYE] - Gain slow-motion aim 1-999-7246-545-537 [1-999-PAINKILLER] - Become invincible If these didn't quite cut it for you, check out every GTA 5 cheat code you could imagine below. Jump to: How to use GTA 5 cheat codes GTA 5 cheat codes on Xbox 360, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S GTA 5 cheat codes on PC GTA 5 cheat codes on PS3, PS4 and PS5 Is there a GTA 5 money cheat? How to use GTA 5 cheat codes While most GTA games allow players to type in a cheat code while the character walks around, GTA 5 has a few different ideas to mix up that formula. Depending on the platform, here's how to use GTA 5 cheat codes: On Xbox, PC or PlayStation, input the code on the controller at any time while wandering around the game world. On PC, press one keyboard button (¬ in the UK or ~ in the USA) and then type in the cheat code. On Xbox, PC or PlayStation, enter cheat codes on the in-game phone. Press up on the D-pad to bring up the phone, then enter the unique code. Activate the Black Cellphone cheat by dialling 1-999-367-3767, for example. This will cause a random explosion somewhere overhead, change the phone's colour, and make it a touch bigger than normal.

There's no money cheat code in GTA 5. The developers from Rockstar like players to have some fun with cheating, but they have not provided a way to make a ton of free cash, which is not in the least bit surprising. This applies to both single-player and multiplayer, with no GTA money cheat available for either. While that makes sense for GTA Online considering that's the big incentive for the mode and players are competing against each other, it's surprising not to see unlimited money in single-player. Previous games like San Andreas featured a cheat code to unlock $250,000, which could then be repeated endlessly. If Rockstar decides to roll out a money cheat, we'll make sure to update this piece. In the meantime, there is an infinite money hack workaround that is worth trying out to get some extra cash.

GTA games in order: Release and story timeline
Every game in the Grand Theft Auto franchise explained.
With Grand Theft Auto 6 set to (hopefully) launch later this year and take us back to Vice City, we thought it prudent to go all the way back to 1997 to see where it all began, and make our way through the GTA games in order, by release and story timeline. Just about every title in the long-running series has shaken up the games industry, changing it forever, and GTA was one of the earliest series to break containment and enter the public consciousness, making headlines across the world, good and bad. From its humble 2.5D beginnings to the cutting edge of rendering tech, GTA has long been at the forefront of many gamers' minds, setting sales records that are yet to be broken, even by other Rockstar titles such as Red Dead Redemption 2. The GTA timeline isn't quite so clear-cut, however, as there are distinct eras that the games are set in, and the appearance of a character from Vice City in GTA 6, but being a similar age, points to a strange timeline, of sorts. But, you can see the GTA timeline for yourself just below! GTA games in release date order Grand Theft Auto (1997 | PC, PS1, Game Boy Color) Grand Theft Auto: London 1969 (1999 | PC, PS1) Grand Theft Auto: London 1961 (1999 | PC, PS1) Grand Theft Auto 2 (1999 | PC, PS1, Dreamcast, Game Boy Color) Grand Theft Auto 3 (2001 | PC, PS2, Xbox, Mac OS, Android, iOS, Fire OS) Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (2002 | PC, PS2, Xbox, Mac OS, Android, iOS, Fire OS) Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (2004 | PC, PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360, Mac OS, Android, iOS, Windows Phone, Oculus Quest 2) Grand Theft Auto Advance (2004 | Game Boy Advance) Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories (2005 | PSP, PS2, PS3 (unavailable), Android, iOS, Fire OS) Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories (2006 | PSP, PS2 PS3 (unavailable)) Grand Theft Auto IV (2008 | PC, PS3, Xbox 360) Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned (2009 | PC, PS3, Xbox 360) Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars (2009 | Nintendo DS, PSP, Android, iOS, Fire OS) Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony (2009 | PC, PS3, Xbox 360) Grand Theft Auto V (2013 | PC, PS3, PS4, PS5, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S) Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition (2021 | PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X, Nintendo Switch) Grand Theft Auto VI (2026 | PS5, Xbox Series X/S) GTA games in story timeline order An important detail to note is that Rockstar does not consider the 2D, 3D and HD timelines to be canon to one another, so as such, we have separated them into the three corresponding timelines so you can play them in chronological order. Grand Theft Auto 2D timeline Below are all the Grand Theft Auto titles in the 2D series that are laid out chronologically. Some of the details are hard to pinpoint due to the vagueness of when games such as GTA 2 take place, and the fact that the original had multiple protagonists to choose from, but below is a reasonably sound summation of the facts. Grand Theft Auto: London 1961 The second expansion pack for the original title, London 1961, takes place – as you may have guessed – eight years before London 1969, but features the same protagonists. Originally released as a freeware expansion pack for Grand Theft Auto, it saw a special release in the UK that featured all of the GTA London content from both mission packs on one disc and didn’t require the original game to play. Grand Theft Auto: London 1969 The first GTA expansion, London 1969 takes us to the height of the Swinging Sixties and features an appropriately groovy soundtrack to commit all-love-and-no-hate crime to. There are eight playable protagonists with very stylised portraits that evoke British pastiches such as Michael Caine, Mods, Sid Vicious and super spies. Buy Grand Theft Auto: London 1969 on CeX Grand Theft Auto The game that began it all – Grand Theft Auto was a smash hit and made waves like no other. The House of Lords even debated the game and its classification, which no doubt did nothing more than add to its appeal. In GTA, you take on several missions as one of eight protagonists across its three cities: Liberty City, Vice City and San Andreas in 1997. Buy Grand Theft Auto on CeX Grand Theft Auto 2 The second in the series and by far the most different, as rather than being set in locales familiar to fans, GTA 2 is set in the futuristic Anywhere-City. Rather than choosing a protagonist, players take the role of Claude Speed and take on missions from the many crime syndicates who call Anywhere-City their seedy home. It’s unclear when the game is set, but clues in-game suggest that it could be anywhere between 1999 and 2013. Buy Grand Theft Auto 2 on CeX Grand Theft Auto 3D timeline The 3D era of Grand Theft Auto is arguably where the game found its stride and changed gaming forever. The production values were stratospheric compared to prior releases and featured characters and storylines with big-name actors. In keeping with tradition, the games were not short of controversy that made the 2D titles look like they were made for children, with San Andreas’ Hot Coffee scandal being perhaps still to this day, one of the most notorious episodes in gaming history. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories Two years before the events of Vice City, the players take control of Victor Vance, who is dishonourably discharged from the military due to being set up and framed by his sergeant, plunging him into the criminal underworld. Teaming up with his brother Lance, Vic shortly finds himself in charge of a crime family that looks to upset the status quo and take Vice City for themselves. Many of the side characters of Vice City are recruited, and by the game's finale, the player finds out how it all goes down before the events of Vice City. Buy Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories on CeX Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Releasing in 2002, Vice City follows the exploits of Tommy Vercetti, an unsavoury yet extremely likeable gangster from Liberty City voiced by the late-and-great Ray Liotta, who has been dispatched to Vice City to oversee his boss’s business dealings as a reward for serving time for the family in a story very reminiscent of Scarface Before the action even begins for the player, Tommy runs afoul of his employers when a drug trade goes bad and sees him losing the money and product. Tommy is allowed to right this wrong and buddies up with Lance Vance to take on Vice City and get his revenge. Soon, Tommy begins to gain influence and commands a burgeoning crime syndicate of his own, and his employers don’t take particularly kindly to this. Buy Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition on GAME Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas One of the best-selling games of all time, San Andreas takes the series back to the '90s, with San Andreas acting as an analogue for California and Nevada, and references significant events of the era, such as the Rodney King Riots and the feuding between the Bloods and the Crips. Featuring Carl Johnson, known as CJ to those around him, San Andreas upped the drama and scale even more and features a massive map with three cities: Los Santos, San Fierro and Las Venturas, and vast swathes of countryside between them. CJ looks to reunite the Grove Street gang upon returning home, after leaving in the wake of the death of his mother, but quickly finds himself dragged into something much bigger with crooked cops, rival gangs and betrayal all looking to stop Carl. Buy Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition on GAME Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories Taking place in 1998 and acting as a prequel to Grand Theft Auto 3, Liberty City Stories revolves around the exploits of Toni Cipriani, a main character from GTA 3. Cipriani is on the run from the Italian Mafia after killing a Made Man and finds himself working for his previous employer, Salvatore Leone. During the game, Cipriani rises through the ranks of the Leone Family by killing rival crime bosses and helping Salvatore Leone to further his good standing with Liberty City’s mayor, and the game concludes with the stage set for the events for Claude in GTA 3. Buy Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories on CeX Grand Theft Auto Advance Also acting as a prequel for Grand Theft Auto 3, Advance is set during the new millennium in 2000 in an altered Liberty City due to the limitations of the Game Boy Advance hardware. In GTA Advance, the player follows a gangster known simply as Mike, who, along with his partner Vinnie, wants to leave Liberty City behind them. It wasn’t to be so, as Liberty City wasn’t done with them, and Vinnie is killed by a car bomb, setting Mike off on a mission to avenge him. Many characters from GTA 3 make an appearance, such as Asuka Kasen, King Courtney and 8-Ball. Grand Theft Auto 3 Despite being the first of the 3D era titles, it’s chronologically the last game as it takes place during 2001. GTA 3 surrounds the exploits of Claude (who bears no similarities to Claude from Grand Theft Auto 2) after he is betrayed and left for dead during a heist by his girlfriend, Catalina. Claude is arrested but manages to escape incarceration after the Colombian Cartel raids the prison convoy, trying to free someone else. Claude finds his feet and works his way up the criminal underworld of Liberty City, seeking vengeance against his former lover. Buy Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition on GAME Grand Theft Auto HD timeline After the suitably cartoonish and silly antics of the prior two timelines, Rockstar looked to ground its series in something more akin to reality. However, it still featured everything that had made the previous games so fun, all wrapped up in some awe-inspiring graphics. Powering the visuals to this day has been the RAGE engine, which was first seen in the surprisingly excellent Rockstar Games Presents Table Tennis in 2006. The RAGE engine has also been used in Max Payne 3 and the Red Dead Redemption games to great effect, and the upcoming GTA 6 will use a very upgraded version of the tech. View Green Video on the source website Grand Theft Auto 4 Hitting the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2008, Grand Theft Auto looked lightyears ahead of the previous mainline entry, San Andreas, and featured the well-trodden Liberty City rendered in greater fidelity than ever seen. The story follows Niko Bellic, an ex-soldier from the former Yugoslavia, looking for a new life with his cousin, Roman, who has mis-sold him on how well he is doing in the "Land of Opportunity". What follows is Niko inevitably being sucked into the criminal dealings of Liberty City to help pay off Roman’s debts. This puts him in the way of some very unsavoury characters, including Vlad Glebov, who has secretly been romantically involved with Roman’s girlfriend. What happens next puts Niko and his family squarely in the crosshairs of the Russian Mob and forces Niko to work for many of the shady players and organisations of the city to keep the danger at bay, and ghosts of his past resurface to haunt him.

Under Johnny’s leadership, the gang had made peace with their rivals, but upon Billy’s release, he orders the truce to be broken, which kicks off a bloodied gang war. Billy continues down the path of all-out violence, which causes tensions to rise within The Lost MC itself, forcing Johnny to reconsider whether to follow Billy to the end.

Despite being a legendary figure in Liberty City, Tony’s nightclubs and other business ventures are failing. He has fallen into debt with the Ancelotti crime family, who want their payment one way or another. Luis risks life and limb for his boss, and it sees him working overtime across the city to keep the wolves at bay, whilst running into a few familiar faces along the way. Buy Grand Theft Auto IV: The Complete Edition for PC on CDKeys Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars Despite being released on the Nintendo DS and PlayStation Portable and being decidedly standard definition, Chinatown Wars is still considered part of the HD timeline. The game takes place in 2009 and follows Huang Lee, the son of a murdered Triad leader. The opening sees Huang travelling to Liberty City to deliver the Yu Jian sword – a family heirloom – to his uncle Wu "Kenny" Lee. Things take a turn when, after arriving, armed assailants kill his guards and leave Huang for dead. Having survived the ordeal, Huang informs his uncle of what happened, and the pair embark on a journey to win the sword back and solidify Kenny as the successor to the Liberty City Triads. Buy Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars on CeX Grand Theft Auto Online Over the years, Grand Theft Auto Online has evolved into a beast of its own. The original missions took place before the events of Grand Theft Auto 5, but GTA Online is still going and takes place well after that story concludes. During this online saga, the story surrounds a player-created character in Los Santos to make it big as one of its many criminals. Since its launch, we have seen countless heists, missions and events that have made the story of GTA Online its own thing. GTA V characters such as Lester and Franklin appear, with the latter offering missions to the player well after the conclusion of the main game. The game is still ongoing, and the story may conclude in some way once GTA 6 lands, hopefully not too far from now. Buy Grand Theft Auto V Premium Edition on GAME Grand Theft Auto 5 Having been released on almost every console over the last decade-plus, Grand Theft Auto 5 trails only Minecraft as the best-selling game of all time. GTA 5 is the first to feature multiple playable characters, Michael Townley, Franklin Clinton and Trevor Philips, and in a novel twist – the player can change between them instantly for most of the game, with only some parts of the plot removing this feature. The scene is set when, in 2004, Michael and Trevor find themselves up against it with fellow criminal Brad Snider in a failed robbery attempt in Ludendorff, North Yankton. Brad is killed during an exchange, and Trevor assumes Michael is killed too and flees the scene. Michael survives and goes into a witness protection program and lives in Los Santos, but in 2013, he soon finds himself sucked into criminality again when he partners up with Franklin Clinton. After a series of events involving his wife, a tennis coach and a crime lord's mansion, Michael enlists his former colleague Lester to provide digital assistance and Franklin to rob a jewellery store to pay off a debt. Footage of the crime makes its way onto TV, and an enraged Trevor Philips recognises Michael and heads to Los Santos to confront his former friend, which sparks off a decidedly ludicrous plot surrounding the three and the big movers and shakers of San Andreas. Buy Grand Theft Auto V Premium Edition on GAME Grand Theft Auto 6 While little is known about the story for GTA 6, we know it will take place in a contemporary Vice City inspired by Miami. The game is thought to be a Bonnie and Clyde-like tale with two protagonists, Lucia and Jason. Grand Theft Auto 6 will launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in 2026, so long as there are no more delays!
