A few days ago, we learned that physical copies of Resident Evil Requiem had leaked, close to two weeks before the game's planned release. As a result, footage of the game's ending, amongst other spoilers, have begun landing on social media and forums. The footage won't last long though, as Capcom is keeping a watchful eye out. 

In a statement this afternoon, Capcom confirmed that it is aware of the gameplay footage leaks for Resident Evil Requiem, which includes on leak showing off one of the game's major endings. Capcom confirms that it is in the process of taking down uploads of gameplay footage in the lead-up to launch day.

“Currently, we have found a large number of gameplay videos of Resident Evil Requiem that appear to have been obtained through illegal means. For the sake of our customers who are eagerly awaiting this game, we ask that you refrain from publishing or posting gameplay videos on video streaming services or social media before the game's release date”.

Capcom goes on to say that “posting gameplay videos prior to the release of this game is not only copyright infringement but also an act that offends other customers”. The publisher will “take firm action” against channels uploading early gameplay spoilers, including DMCA takedowns.

KitGuru Says: If you're planning on picking up Resident Evil Requiem next week, be careful when looking at gaming forums and sites like Twitter, as leaks are bound to appear and be shared before Capcom is able to get them taken down.

To the surprise of no one, Ubisoft has confirmed that it has ‘multiple' games in development for its flagship Assassin's Creed and Far Cry franchises, focused on both single-player and multiplayer experiences. 

Ubisoft has been attempting to branch out its biggest franchises into the multiplayer realm for more than a decade at this point but so far, nothing in the Assassin's Creed or Far Cry universes has managed to stick the landing. However, this week in an interview with Variety, Ubisoft CEO, Yves Guillemot, has confirmed that more attempts are in the works, alongside the usual single-player games.

Insider Gaming has a bit more information gathered via developer sources. Two Far Cry games are still in development under the codenames Blackbird and Maverick. The former is said to be the codename for Far Cry 7, while the latter is supposed to be an extraction shooter set in the Far Cry universe.

Meanwhile, the Assassin's Creed games in development are said to include the Black Flag remake, as well as two other games codenamed Invictus and Obsidian, with the former being a new single-player game and the latter being a multiplayer project.

This news comes at an odd time, as Ubisoft had just recently cancelled a slate of games, including the Assassin's Creed Shadows multiplayer spin-off.

KitGuru Says: Ubisoft has been trying to crack the multiplayer formula for over a decade but so far, none of its attempts have been as successful as Rainbow Six Siege. The ironic part is that Ubisoft was an early contender in the extraction shooter genre with The Division, which had an excellent extraction-based PvP mode.

Back in early 2025, Thermal Grizzly officially began selling delidded processors, backed by a warranty to give PC builders peace of mind. This week, the company is adding a new CPU to its delidded line-up – the AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D.

A delidded CPU ships with the IHS removed, offering beginners and veterans alike an easy gateway to improved cooling by using a direct-die solution. The process of removing the IHS yourself can be risky and void warranty, so buying one through Thermal Grizzly instead is a safer option.

The Ryzen 7 9850X3D is AMD's new flagship gaming processor. It launched at CES in January, offering up 104MB of speedy cache, alongside a boost clock speed of 5.6GHz. With the proper cooling, a delidded 9850X3D should be capable of hitting that boost clock speed and sustaining it more often. If you know what you're doing, you may be able to get a bit more performance out of it through manual overclocking too.

Each delidded CPU from Thermal Grizzly is validated by their team before being shipped out to customers, so you shouldn't have to worry about receiving a dud. The CPU ships with its own warranty guaranteed by Thermal Grizzly, as well as the validation test results so you can see what they tested first-hand.

The TG Delidded Ryzen 7 9850X3D is available now, priced at €749. The company also offers delidded versions of the Ryzen 9 9950X3D and the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K.

It's official, Nintendo and Game Freak are finally bringing back Pokémon Leaf Green and Fire Red. However, unlike the majority of other classic game re-releases on the Switch, these titles will not be part of the Switch Online virtual console system and will instead be sold as standalone games on the eShop. 

Pokémon Leaf Green and Fire Red return next week, on the 27th of February for the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2. Before you get too excited, this is a simple re-release, with no graphical upgrades or Quality-of-Life updates, so you will be re-living the GameBoy Advanced experience, the same as it was over 20 years ago.

The games will both be made available on the Switch eShop at 2PM next Friday. Pre-orders are already live, but you'll have to shell out $19.99 for each game. On top of that, there is no confirmed online multiplayer functionality for trades or battles, so you will have to rely on local wireless in order to make trades or battle friends.

Considering how legendary both of these games are, it is a shame to see a lack of online functionality in particular, as it would make filling the Pokedex a lot easier for players. The price tag is also somewhat questionable given that this is a simple ROM of a game from 2004, with minimal work done to update it.

KitGuru Says: As much as I loved these games back in the day, the lack of online trade functionality is off-putting. Fans may be able to get around this if the games support Pokémon Home transfers, but I would still far prefer seeing online trade functionality in-game, rather than needing to mess around with phone apps.
