Bethesda is hard at work on The Elder Scrolls VI, per a recent interview with Game Informer.

Game Informer didn't just speak to Todd Howard, though—they also collected statements 
It's the 2025 Holiday Season, and you know what that means—snowy-white motherboards, meant for PCs with cool temperatures and high performance. To encourage this, a number of reputable motherboard manufacturers have put their white motherboards on sale on Amazon, and we'll be highlighting the 7 most compelling options below, sorted by price. 
The problem with a memory shortage is that virtually every single part of a computer uses memory in some way. That, obviously, includes graphics cards, and despite the author's earlier optimism that GDDR might be one of the less-affected memory types, it turns out that NVIDIA may be cutting GPU production next year because it's concerned about Jonsbo is expanding its chassis lineup with the release of the D401 Black, a mid-tower case that breaks away from traditional box aesthetics. Featuring an external frame finished in dark metallic grey, the case is designed to offer a balance of structural rigidity and open-air visual appeal for showcase builds.
Jonsbo has equipped the D401 (via Hermitage Akihabara) with large tempered glass panels on both the front and left side, providing a panoramic view of the hardware. While glass-heavy “aquarium” style cases often suffer from airflow restrictions, the D401 attempts to mitigate this with a right-side panel featuring dedicated venting, working in tandem with perforations across the top and bottom panels to create unobstructed channels for intake and exhaust.
Cooling support is substantial for a chassis of this class. The layout supports a variety of configurations, with up to three 120 mm fans on the side panel and either three 120 mm or two 140 mm fans on the top. Unusually for a standard mid-tower, the PSU shroud is also perforated to mount three additional 120 mm fans, feeding fresh air directly into the GPU. Regarding liquid-cooling compatibility, the case supports dual 360mm radiators simultaneously (top and side), making it a viable candidate for custom loops or high-end AIOs.
Internally, the D401 Black supports Mini-ITX to ATX motherboards, with seven rear expansion slots. Graphics card clearance is generous at 439 mm, while air cooler height is capped at 169 mm. The design also supports vertical GPU mounting, though builders will need a separate riser cable. Power supplies up to 200 mm in length can be fitted. Storage options are kept relatively minimal to maintain the clean interior aesthetic, with a convertible drive bay supporting either a 3.5-inch HDD or a 2.5-inch SSD, alongside two dedicated 2.5-inch mounts. The I/O panel, located at the bottom of the left panel, covers the essentials, including USB connectivity (1x Type-C 3.2 and 2x Type-A 3.0) and standard audio jacks.
KitGuru says: The D401 is an aesthetically pleasing case with room for almost anything you want to throw at it. However, looks aren't enough, and the limited storage options, I/O panel location, and interrupted panoramic view might deter some from pursuing this case.

Today, Nacon officially confirmed that the game has in fact been delayed, but beyond that, it is also going through some major changes behind-the-scenes.
Terminator Survivors was initially pitched as a co-op multiplayer shooter. However, after months of internal testing, the team behind it has decided to go back and reimagine the game as a single-player title.
In an update post published this week, the game's creative director, Marco Ponte, said: “After months of internal testing, discussions with players and fans of the license, we came to the conclusion that to give you an authentic Terminator experience with the best possible shooting and exploration gameplay, we would have to put aside the cooperative multiplayer.”
“We know this may come as a disappointment, but we believe it is the right creative direction for an uncompromising vision of the world after Judgment Day. We’ve also had to overhaul our release plans, instead of launching in early access, we want your first steps into the wasteland to be a complete and polished experience.”
As a result of all of this, Terminator Survivors will not be coming out in 2025 like originally planned. There is no new release date yet, but fans can sign-up to be part of future playtests, which will take place closer to the game's new, currently unknown release window.
KitGuru Says: It is rare to see an announced multiplayer game go through a pivot like this. Would you be happier with a single-player Terminator shooter, or would you have preferred the original multiplayer version?

Mat Piscatella, a videogame industry analyst for Circana, has shared the top 20 best-selling games in the US for November 2025. The list is topped by Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, although EA's new hit shooter was not far behind, taking the number 2 spot.
Here is the full top 10:
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 managed to beat out all of this year's major sports games as well, despite many of them being discounted for Black Friday. New releases from Nintendo, like Kirby Air Riders and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment both battled for the #10 spot, but ultimately, Kirby won out and Hyrule Warriors dropped to #11.
Other notable games found throughout the #11 to #20 slots include The Outer Worlds 2 at #12, Sonic Racing: Cross Worlds at #13, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 at #15, Red Dead Redemption 2 at #16, followed closely by GTA V at #17. Borderlands 4, and Forza Horizon 5 both also managed to remain in the top 20.
KitGuru Says: Black Ops 7 has sold well, but there must have been something in the numbers to spook Activision, or they wouldn't have recently announced plans to stop back-to-back years for Black Ops and Modern Warfare.

The game was announced far too early, back in 2018 and while fans knew that Starfield was the priority at the time, fans have not stopped asking about it. Todd Howard made a rare comment on the state of the game this week, saying that he too wished that things had moved faster.
Internally, Bethesda had reportedly planned to ship Starfield before 2022, but delays creeped in. Ultimately, after joining Microsoft, the game was announced for late 2022, only for another major delay to take place, pushing the game back to late 2023. Due to the lingering work required on Starfield, production for The Elder Scrolls 6 also had to be pushed back.
The Elder Scrolls 6 is now finally in full production and could release as early as 2027, alongside a planned next-generation Xbox console. Speaking with Game Informer, Todd Howard commented on the drawn-out timeline for the game, saying:
“The majority of the studio’s on VI, but I’ll say this: We always overlap. So, we’re very used to overlapping development. And we have long pre-productions on things so that we feel good about them. And it’s a process. We all wish it went a little bit faster – or a lot faster – but it’s a process that we want to get right.”
The last Elder Scrolls game to release was 2011's Skyrim. We still don't know what part of Tamriel the new game will be set in, or what gameplay changes may come along with it. Based on the 2018 teaser, fans reckon that The Elder Scrolls 6 may be set in Hammerfell, the home of the Redguards, or potentially High Rock, the homeland of the Bretons. Some also speculate that the game could span both regions, as they are more compact compared to Skyrim, while also being neighbouring provinces.
KitGuru Says: If The Elder Scrolls 6 is indeed targeting a 2027 launch date, then we may start getting some real news about the game starting next year.
The post Todd Howard also wishes The Elder Scrolls 6 had come out faster first appeared on KitGuru.Arctic has officially retired the MX-6 from its flagship position, replacing it with the new MX-7 compound. While the company has long been a staple in thermal pastes, this latest iteration marks a distinct shift in formulation strategy, moving towards a significantly higher viscosity to combat the “pump-out” effect common in modern, high-heat-density processors.
Arctic has engineered MX-7 to be considerably thicker than its predecessors, a design choice explicitly aimed at long-term stability. The phenomenon of pump-out, where thermal cycles cause lower-viscosity pastes to migrate away from the die centre, has become a frequent headache for direct-die cooling applications on GPUs and gaming laptops. By increasing the cohesiveness of the mixture, Arctic claims the MX-7 will maintain its bond line integrity far longer than standard pastes.
However, this change in consistency requires some builders to change how they apply it. The manufacturer explicitly advises against the old “spread with a spatula” technique that was popular with the softer MX-4. Due to the high viscosity, manual spreading is likely to result in uneven ridges. Instead, Arctic recommends applying a generous amount in a cross pattern and allowing the mounting pressure to distribute the material. This ensures a uniform layer that fills microscopic imperfections without introducing air pockets.
The compound is fully non-conductive and non-capacitive, meaning that any accidental overspill onto the system carries no risk of short circuits. Arctic has also integrated a QR-code-based authenticity check on the packaging to ensure you're getting the real thing. The MX-7 is now available at a launch discount, with the 2g syringe starting at €6.49. The 4g variant comes in at €6.99, and the 8g tube at €8.49. For those needing to clean up old residue, a bundle version including a 4g syringe and six MX-Cleaner wipes is available for €8.29.
KitGuru says: Have you ever used Arctic MX thermal pastes? Were you happy with the results? Would you consider the new MX-7 if you had to replace the thermal paste of a GPU/CPU?
The post Arctic aims for improved longevity with new high-viscosity MX-7 thermal paste first appeared on KitGuru.Enermax has expanded its high-end power supply portfolio with the introduction of the Revolution III S 1000W, a new unit targeting the premium segment of the market. Available in black and white, this latest entry focuses heavily on future-proofing, featuring full compliance with the Intel ATX 3.1 standard. Perhaps the most aggressive move with this launch is the manufacturer's decision to back the unit with a 13-year warranty. This duration exceeds the industry-standard 10-year coverage typically seen on flagship units from competitors like Corsair or Seasonic.
Efficiency is a key selling point for the Revolution III S, which has secured Platinum certification across three major testing bodies: 80 Plus, Cybenetics, and PPLP. This ensures tight voltage regulation and reduced thermal waste, which is managed by a 120 mm fluid-dynamic bearing fan. Enermax has tuned the cooling curve for silence, implementing a semi-fanless mode that keeps the fan stationary until the load exceeds 60%. For a 1000W unit, this means the power supply remains passive during most desktop tasks and even gaming scenarios.
The PSU uses 100% Japanese capacitors and includes a native 12V-2×6 connector capable of delivering up to 600W down a single cable, ensuring compatibility with current and future flagship graphics cards without the need for adapters. The cabling solution uses mesh-sleeving rather than standard ribbon cables, designed to improve flexibility and airflow management within the chassis.
The Revolution III S 1000W is scheduled to hit retailers in January 2026. Pricing is set at $179.99/€159.99 for the standard black model, while the white variant commands a slight premium at $189.99/€169.99.
KitGuru says: We've seen plenty of PSUs with 12-year warranties over the last decade, but a 13-year warranty isn't that common. This alone might be enough for the Revolution III S 1000W to stand out in the market.

In a statement to Road to VR, Meta says it has "paused the program to focus on building the world-class first-party hardware and software needed to advance the VR market".
“We’re committed to this for the long term and will revisit opportunities for 3rd-party device partnerships as the category evolves”, the statement continues.
UploadVRDavid Heaney
The news comes just under 20 months after Meta officially announced that third-party headsets running Quest's operating system, which it branded Horizon OS, were in the works.
At the time, Meta said Asus was working on a "performance gaming headset" under its ROG brand, while Lenovo was working on "a line of headsets" for "productivity, learning, and entertainment".
We heard nothing official about the Asus ROG headset after this point, though a rumor back in January suggested that it would have face and eye tracking and use either QD-LCD panels with local dimming or micro-OLED displays.
Meanwhile, around a year ago at Lenovo Tech World 2024, the company confirmed that it was still working on its Horizon OS headset.
UploadVRDavid Heaney
The decision to "pause" the program for third-party Horizon OS headsets may have come alongside the wider cuts to the VR and Horizon Worlds teams at Meta, widely reported by outlets like Bloomberg, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and Business Insider earlier this month.
Shortly after those reports, Meta issued an official statement confirming "shifting some of our investment from Metaverse toward AI glasses and Wearables".
Today's news doesn't mean the end of Horizon OS headsets, though, just that they won't be coming from third parties – at least not any time soon.
Meta's statement mentions building "world-class first-party hardware" for VR, and leaked memos from earlier this month reveal that the company is actively working on at least two Horizon OS products.
UploadVRDavid Heaney
According to those memos, Meta plans to launch its rumored ultralight "mixed reality glasses" headset with a tethered compute puck in the first half of 2027, and recently started work on a gaming-focused Quest 4 set to be a "large upgrade" over Quest 3, though at a higher price.
Given this timeline, Quest 3 owners hoping for a direct upgrade within the Horizon OS ecosystem could be waiting another two or three years, meaning Quest 3 would end up being Meta's all-in-one flagship for four or five years without a direct successor. And when that successor does arrive, it's set to have a notably higher price.
Quest's Hand Tracking 2.4 update significantly improves the Fast Motion Mode, better handling rapid movements like punching and swinging.
Since launching controller-free hand tracking as a software update for the original Oculus Quest experimentally in late 2019 and publicly in early 2020, Meta has continued to improve the feature, gradually bridging much of the tracking quality difference compared to controllers.
Comparison of Fast Motion Mode with 2.3 (left) and 2.4 (right).
Normally, Quest's hand tracking samples the tracking cameras at 30Hz. Optionally, the developers of apps can enable Fast Motion Mode, which makes the cameras sample at 50Hz or 60Hz, depending on your country's mains electricity frequency, to sync up with artificial lighting.
The higher sampling rate of Fast Motion Mode improves the tracking of fast motions, with the tradeoff of introducing some jitter that can make hand tracking feel slightly less accurate. Fast Motion Mode also requires brighter room lighting on headsets older than Quest 3S, because the camera exposure is lower, bringing less light, so without IR illuminators this will cause the tracking to degrade more.
Fast Motion Mode also cannot be used alongside simultaneous hands and controllers mode, and can only be combined with inside-out body tracking in VR, not passthrough mixed reality. Further, on Quest Pro, Fast Motion Mode can't be used alongside eye tracking or face tracking.
Still, these tradeoffs aside, Fast Motion Mode is ideal for fast-paced immersive games, and that's what Hand Tracking 2.4 is focused on improving.
UploadVRDavid Heaney
Meta says that Hand Tracking 2.4 arrived in Horizon OS v83, which started rolling out last month.
According to Meta, Hands 2.4 brings the following improvements to Fast Motion Mode:
Again though, keep in mind that Fast Motion Mode is a feature developers need to enable for their apps, so you'll only see this in games that chose to use it.
You should be able to test it out in Meta's free demo app from 2023 called Move Fast, which is designed to showcase how hand tracking can be used for immersive fitness games.
Maestro adds two notable songs from Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean films, joined by other epic sailing songs in the latest DLC.
At the heart of the All Aboard! update are two iconic tracks from Pirates of the Caribbean, including Hans Zimmer and Klaus Badelt's instantly recognizable theme, “He's a Pirate,” and Zimmer's “Jack Sparrow.” These rousing pieces are joined by a selection of sea-inspired music, including the shanty “Wellerman,” Rimsky-Korsakov's “The Shipwreck,” and Ralph Vaughan Williams' A Sea Symphony (Overture).
As with earlier Maestro add-ons, such as the Star Wars, Game of Thrones, and Fantasia themed updates previously covered here, the new DLC brings more than just music. All Aboard! adds a new environment to perform in (which includes a kraken and ghost ship) plus new buccaneer-themed costumes for the orchestra. Players can get into the swashbuckling spirit, too, with new accessories and cosmetic items, including a Kraken's Foot baton and The Cap'n gloves.
Our 2024 review of Maestro praised the game's bold use of hand tracking on Quest, and called the experience a “breath of fresh air” compared to other VR rhythm games. That's since arrived across almost every major VR platform, and it's one of the few games that currently supports PlayStation VR2 hand-tracking.
Maestro and the new All Aboard! add-on are available now in the Meta Horizon Store and Steam, while the Pico and PS VR2 release will follow “in the coming days.”

visionOS 26.2 brings official support for using Apple Vision Pro in cars and buses via improved tracking in Travel Mode.
Apple Vision Pro was the first headset to deliver a Travel Mode, meaning a toggle that makes its positional tracking system work while in a moving vehicle, when it launched in early 2024.
Since then, over the years, Meta, Pico, Snap, and Google have followed with their own implementations of Travel Mode for their headsets.
At launch, Apple's Travel Mode was specifically designed for airplanes. With visionOS 2 last year, it was updated to officially support trains. And now with visionOS 26.2, released last week, Apple Vision Pro officially supports cars and buses too.
"Travel Mode lets passengers use Apple Vision Pro on cars and busses in addition to airplanes and train", Apple's release notes read.

I say "officially" because the feature did already work in these scenarios. When picking up Apple Vision Pro in New York at launch, I used its Travel Mode in the back of an Uber. It worked, with some minor jitter.
I'll be sure to try Apple Vision Pro's Travel Mode again next time I'm in a long distance Uber, Waymo, or bus, as I'm curious to see how much improvement the official support brings.
The update arrived on the same week that Google announced and started rolling out a Travel Mode for Android XR on Galaxy XR, which officially only supports planes.

As such, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton initiated a series of lawsuits against five of the world’s most prominent As a result of what appears to be disappointing sales for Treyarch’s latest Call of Duty Black Ops 7, Activision confirmed that they would no longer be doing back-to-back releases within the same sub-series. While we’ve already seen a solid number of leaks regarding next year’s COD MW4, details surrounding Sledgehammer Games’ 2027 project have now been revealed.
A shared by known Call of Duty leaker TheGhostofHope, 2027’s Call of Duty is set to be led by Sledgehammer Games. While they were most recently put in charge of Modern Warfare III, Sledgehammer are reportedly working on a brand new sub-series for 2027 “with completely new characters set in the late 1990s/early 2000s.”
Details beyond this are light, however, TheGhostofHope did claim that omni-movement (first seen in Black Ops 6 and refined in BO7) will make a return in 2027. Interestingly, other recent leaks have stated that next year’s Modern Warfare 4 from Infinity Ward WON’T feature omni-movement.
Going back to Sledgehammer’s COD however, Ghost also claimed that the much-loved pick-10 system seen in earlier Black Ops releases could make a return.
The final notable detail shared was the fact that it appeared as though the Zombies mode won’t be present in COD 2027. While this may disappoint some, it should allow for Treyarch to recoup and put all their focus on Black Ops 8 in 2029 or whatever it ends up being called.
While all Call of Duty studios have been victim to decisions made by high-up executives, Sledgehammer Games have historically been given the shortest end of the stick, being brought in to finish up troubled projects or forced to work on other sub-franchises. As such, here’s to hoping that the team’s next Call of Duty manages to stand on its own and allow Sledgehammer Games to flex their creative muscles.

Amassing over 500,000 concurrent players on PC alone, it was clear that Silksong had sold millions of copies already. That said, we now have official figures, with Team Cherry confirming that Silksong has so far surpassed 7 million copies.
As part of the surprise announcement for Hollow Knight: Silksong’s upcoming free expansion – Sea of Sorrow – Team Cherry confirmed that the game has already sold over 7 million copies, writing:
“We wanted to say a huge thank you to all the players who’ve braved Silksong’s distant and dangerous lands. That’s over seven million of you who’ve purchased the game, alongside millions more playing on Xbox Game Pass! It’s a truly staggering number of players, more than we could have ever expected (enough to crash all of the storefronts!)”
For context, the original Hollow Knight is confirmed to have sold over 15 million copies as of August 2025, meaning Silksong still has a ways to go to surpass its predecessor. That said, the first game had ‘only’ sold 2.8 million copies after over 2 years on the market.
With Silksong just a little over 3 months on from release, and plenty of post-launch support still planned, it would not be surprising to see the sequel surpassing the OG Hollow Knight – perhaps even by the time Sea of Sorrow releases next year.
