I was already very excited to play Warner Bros and TT Games’ upcoming Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight when it arrives on consoles and PC later this month. But a new launch trailer, out now, somehow has me even more pumped up to play this plastic brick spin on an open-world Arkham-like Batman adventure when it lands on May 22. And you can thank Seal for that, I guess? On May 7, WB released what is likely to be the last big, new trailer for its upcoming Lego Batman game. Normally a launch trailer isn’t much to write…

Last month, the cryptocurrency-based online casino Duel aired a blackjack livestream that it said would be hosted by former pro kickboxer turned controversial masculinity influencer Andrew Tate.But while the dealer—a bald man with dark stubble, wearing a black T-shirt, tight suit, and sunglasses—bore a resemblance to Tate, he didn’t act much like the swaggeringly macho and voluble streamer. His mostly silent performance was punctuated by sudden bouts of singing, vigorous twerking, and still more ridiculous dance moves, the most impressive being a full split on the blackjack table. He also spontaneously made out with a male assistant posted to his…

Blindfire was released back in October 2024 with a unique hook: It was an online first-person shooter set in the dark and was built around finding your enemies or remaining out of their sight. Sadly for developer Double Eleven, it never found much of an audience.

On May 7, Double Eleven posted an update on Blindfire’s official Steam page announcing that…

As AI increasingly takes over the work of modern programmers, the cybersecurity world has warned that automated coding tools are sure to introduce a new bounty of hackable bugs into software. When those same vibe-coding tools invite anyone to create applications hosted on the web with a click, however, it turns out the security implications go beyond bugs to a total absence of any security—even, sometimes, for highly sensitive corporate and personal data.Security researcher Dor Zvi and his team at the cybersecurity firm he cofounded, RedAccess, analyzed thousands of vibe-coded web applications created using the AI software development tools Lovable,…

Artist Takaya Imamura, who designed the look of Fox McCloud for the original Star Fox, has some thoughts about the character’s controversial new appearance, recently revealed in the remake of Star Fox 64 for Switch 2. “I wake up in the morning,” Imamura wrote on X, according to the platform’s machine translation. “A ton of messages have come in. Oh! Star Fox is finally making a comeback… I’ve gotta post about this… wait, this isn’t a dream, right?” Imamura, who retired from Nintendo in 2021 after over 30 years at the company, was one of the core developers on the first…

Brian Barrett: This is the first time I’ve thought about contact tracing in many years, and I was so happy not thinking about it for so long, because it is such a complicated process and something that is really hard work to do. Emily, given all of that, what is the level of concern here, given what the World Health Organization has said and other organizations? It sounds like cautious about it, but maybe not freak out time yet, but I defer to you because maybe that’s just me trying to make myself feel better.Emily Mullin: No, I think you’re…

Xbox and Sega presented a broadcast on Wednesday that shared new details about their upcoming Yakuza prequel, Stranger than Heaven. Since the broadcast aired, RGG Studio has come under fire for its bizarre choice to use the likeness of famous film actor Bunta Sugawara, who passed away in 2014.  In a press release for the upcoming game, Sega shared the following statement: “In STRANGER THAN HEAVEN, the late and legendary actor Bunta Sugawara appears. SEGA received formal consent from his family, and, with materials provided by Toei Company, Ltd.—which produced many of Mr. Sugawara’s films, including the Battles Without Honor…

If you use Google’s Chrome browser for desktop, there’s probably a Gemini Nano AI model running on your computer right now and taking up about 4 GB of space. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, but if you didn’t know about it and don’t want it, there’s a way to turn it off.The file started auto-downloading for Chrome users in 2024 after Google built Gemini Nano into the browser. But a report by That Privacy Guy this week and the ensuing reception it received highlighted how unaware many users were—perhaps a result of a flood of AI services and features…

Halo Infinite is still getting new content. Wizardry was purchased by Atari, but only some of it. World War 2 strategy nerds rejoice as Ruse comes back to Steam. It’s Kotaku‘s Checkpoint news roundup for May 7, 2026, where some of us have regressed to our old high school ways and refuse to fill our car’s gas tank more than three gallons at a time. Unfortunately, every time I return to the pump, the price is somehow even higher than before. At least the criminally underrated Hell Is Us is coming to Switch 2. PC gamer gets roasted for not…
