Akira creator Katsuhiro Otomo is working on a new project from a brand-new anime studio.According to a press release, the studio, named OVAL GEAR, “was established with the aim of passing on the visual expression and artistic style that Katsuhiro Otomo has cultivated over many years to the next generation, and to disseminate new animation works to the world.

Guerilla Games co-founder and former Epic Games technical director Arjan Brussee is making what he styles a “European alternative” to US-developed videogame engines like Unreal and Unity (the latter originally conceived in Denmark, to be fair). In a show of true generosity towards internet wisecrackers, he’s calling his WIP creation “The Immense Engine”. Love to see an entrepreneur just absolutely faceplant any and all Freudian undertones. Brussee is also touting both “full” generative AI integration and possible applications for the defence industry, where game engines have long been used for simulation and training.
A new job listing on Neowiz’s career page has confirmed that Round8, the developer behind much-renowned soulslike game, Lies of P, is hiring an “AI Creator” for its Game Art and Creative team. The listing states that the team is looking for someone who can “leverage generative AI technology to maximize the efficiency of the art production process and innovate the visual quality of games,” which I’m sure is as disappointing to you as it is to me. Per the new job listing, however, it appears that Round8 is looking to integrate generative AI into its artistic workflows. The company…

The best gaming headsets can sometimes look a bit too similar, and that is especially true of the Audeze Maxwell 2. It bears a striking resemblance to the older Audeze Maxwell, and without my years of testing and reviewing the latest cups, I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference at a first glance. But the audiophile brand has found a way to set the two apart with the release of the Audeze Reskin earcup covers.Starting from $19.99 (Audeze), these official Audeze ReSkin earcup covers are “easily interchangable” and allow you to swap out the plain all-black covers for unique…
Forza Horizon 6’s PC version has leaked online ahead of release next week, with an unencrypted Steam build allegedly being to blame.
Stellar Blade developer Shift Up has published its latest earnings report, and after going quiet on its upcoming sequel for quite some time, we finally have an indication of when we’ll hear more about the next chapter in Eve’s story. Alongside this, the studio’s also planning to dish out deets on its new unnamed IP, currently going by ‘Project Spirits.’ While PC players were made to wait for Stellar Blade due to a Sony exclusivity clause, Shift Up’s moving away from the gaming monolith, and is taking publication in-house. This, I hope, could result in a PC version of Stellar…
