GameSpotValve has finally announced the price of the new Steam Machine, and it'll be over $1,000 when it launches on June 30. In addition to confirming the price and release date, Valve published a new FAQ that runs through some key particulars about the system, including how it is not meant to be described as a console. "We think of Steam Machine as an extension of PC gaming, not as a console," Valve said. This is not a game console. In making its point, Valve said a console like an Xbox or PlayStation
GameSpotA fan recreating Ocarina of Time has scrapped the project, citing fears of "Nintendo ninjas" following the official announcement of the Switch 2 remake. According to IGN, YouTuber CryZENx pulled the plug on their The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time PC recreation after at least a decade of working on it. In a blog post on their official Patreon, CryZENx told their community that the "Ocarina of Time project [has] officially stopped." CryZENx didn't provide an exact reason for the cancellation, b
Rock Paper ShotgunBattlefield 6 and The Sims publishers EA are making another round of layoffs as they seek "to better meet fans’ changing needs", according to a report. The exact number of people affected is unknown, but apparently, there have been cutbacks across recruitment, IT, customer support, and the "trust and safety" division broadly responsible for encouraging EA players and streamers to be nice to each other. The losses allegedly include remote roles in the USA, and a few seasoned EA staff working in H
GameSpotThe Elder Scrolls 6 is one of Xbox's most-anticipated upcoming games, and game director Todd Howard has now said the studio must stick the landing. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Howard confirmed that the majority of the developers at Bethesda Game Studios are working on The Elder Scrolls 6 currently. "We know we need to get it right and it's been a long time," he said. Indeed it has been a long time. The game was announced more than eight years ago now, and to date, only one video has been r
Rock Paper ShotgunWell, that answers that. The new Steam Machine, which Valve have just opened to randomised reservations, starts at £879 / $1049 / €1039 for the base 512GB model, and costs £1149 / $1349 / €1359 for the 2TB version – climbing to £1208 / $1428 / €1428 if you bundle in a Steam Controller. To paraphrase my Steam Machine review stance on those prices: they’re pretty chuffing high, even if the Machine itself is a nicely designed (and unusually specialised) piece of lower-end kit. As for what Valve the

GameSpotOne World of Warcraft player has created their own private version of Azeroth, populated not by other players, but with AI-powered bots. As detailed on the wowservers subreddit, user Mr-Nilsson_85 explained how they created a "proof of concept" of what a Wrath of the Lich King-era WoW server played entirely by bots looks like, turning one of the world's premier MMORPGs into what is essentially a single-player game. The server hosts 1,800 bot "players" that go about playing the game as real playe
GameSpotAhead of its launch on June 30, reviews and impressions on Valve's Steam Machine have arrived. Designed to be a living room PC, the compact unit is launching during an expensive time for gamers, as the ongoing memory and storage crisis, coupled with AI data center demands, has seen an explosive surge in hardware prices. Is the Steam Machine worth its price? According to impressions from various outlets, Valve has managed to cram an impressive amount of hardware into the small PC gaming cube, but
GameSpotXbox is going full steam ahead with a slate of films and TV shows, which now includes a live-action adaptation of Rare's 2018 pirate-filled, social-sim adventure game, Sea of Thieves.

Rock Paper ShotgunHave to say, it was more fun when the Steam Deck launched. That was a cool thing, afforded the space and the grace to just be a cool thing. The new Steam Machine, by contrast, arrives at a time when the creative industry it relies upon is being stripped to the bone, and the physical components it’s built upon are trapped in a historically terrible econo-ravaging. Also, everyone hates each other. As powerful as Valve are, there’s only so much a little SteamOS box can shrug off. The original Steam
Rock Paper ShotgunAfter months of delaying, price worries, and scarce component-wrangling, the new Steam Machine is ready for launch. Valve have confirmed that the reservation system for orders – an initially randomised variant of how they’re current selling the Steam Controller – is open now for signups, and have lifted the embargo on Steam Machine reviews. That’s ours, right there. Also, we finally know just how much you’ll be asked to pay for the diminutive SteamOS system. Ready? Here’s those Steam Machine pri
