FIFA’s first true soccer sim after the end of its EA partnership will be available exclusively on Netflix, the streaming service announced. This “reimagined FIFA football simulation game” will be developed and published by Delphi Interactive, and be available to Netflix subscribers next year, right in time for FIFA World Cup 2026.EA and FIFA maintained a nearly 30 year partnership creating soccer games before they parted ways in 2022. EA continued its soccer series afterward as EA FC, but despite being in talks with “leading game publishers, media companies and investors” about “a major new FIFA simulation football game title…
Every classic game deserves a wild Game Boy version. Roblox has to clean up its platform predator problem before it can get a Marvel collab. And a record-breaking Charizard sale has me thinking of every paper collectible I ever threw in the trash. Which presents am I currently buying my children that might one day be worth a small fortune? Or is the nostalgia-fueled millennial collectible market just another bubble everyone will forget about a decade from now? Welcome to the latest edition of Morning Checkpoint, Kotaku‘s daily roundup of gaming news and culture, which just broke its own record…
I’m a Black staffer at WIRED. My position feels more precarious than ever. There’s a reason for that.
NASA is working with commercial partners to create high-performing, reliable propulsion systems that will help small spacecraft safely maneuver in orbit, reach intended destinations across the solar system, and accomplish mission operations. Two new micropropulsion technologies are being tested in space onboard a CubeSat called DUPLEX (Dual Propulsion Experiment) that deployed into low Earth orbit from the International Space Station on Dec. 2. The CubeSat is fitted with two thruster systems that use spools of polymer fibers to provide performance levels of propulsion comparable to existing systems but with greater safety during assembly and more affordability. One of the propulsion…
Last year, Meta announced that it was opening up its VR operating system to other headset makers, starting with ASUS and Lenovo. Now, it seems that Meta is pumping the brakes on the effort and those third-party Horizon OS headsets might never actually launch.The company has “paused” the program, Road to VR reported. Meta confirmed the move in a statement to Engadget, saying that it’s instead focusing on “building the world-class first-party hardware and software needed to advance the VR market.” ASUS and Lenovo didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. Both companies have said little about the headsets…
Earlier today the official X account for Kick, the streaming platform known for courting controversy both with its gambling affiliations and its contentious content, announced a partnership with Xbox. The vague announcement featured a picture of two people shaking hands, with one of them holding what appears to be a console box with the words “video game system” written on it and “Kick” in the center, and the Xbox logo obfuscated under the person’s hand. The text accompanying the picture reads: “kick [handshake emoji] xbox.” kick 🤝 xbox pic.twitter.com/aDMEd62fdD — KICK (@KickStreaming) December 17, 2025 Kotaku was able to independently confirm…
Your dad does not have high expectations this Christmas. Any man who is being completely candid with you will admit that most gifts he has received during his adult life fall under “It’s the thought that counts.” But it needn’t be so. With a little research and some thought, you can give the father figure in your life the best gift for a dad that he’s ever gotten.I am a dad, and I spent a lot of time thinking about what people should get me. Luckily, since I work here, people are happy to send me those very things for…
After nearly five years on Mars, NASA’s Perseverance rover has traveled almost 25 miles (40 kilometers), and the mission team has been busy testing the rover’s durability and gathering new science findings on the way to a new region nicknamed “Lac de Charmes,” where it will be searching for rocks to sample in the coming year. Like its predecessor Curiosity, which has been exploring a different region of Mars since 2012, Perseverance was made for the long haul. NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California, which built Perseverance and leads the mission, has continued testing the rover’s parts here on…
Behringer is no stranger to remaking classic synthesizers and selling them at much cheaper price points. However, this latest release may just take the budget-friendly cake. The company just introduced the UB-1 Micro, previously called the Spirit, a portable analog synth inspired by the Oberheim Matrix line that costs just $49.Despite the price tag, this thing still manages to sound extremely beefy. It features a pair of digitally controlled oscillators (DCOs) based on the Oberheim Matrix 6 analog chip. The monophonic/duophonic synth boasts two LFOs to control filters and tuning and an arpeggiator with three patterns and a hold function.It…
Fresh off its Game of the Year win, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has a new, free update that adds additional levels, upgrades, and boss fights to the RPG. If it’s been a while since you checked in with Verso, Maelle, and the rest of the expedition, maybe, I dunno, go practice your parrying before you head into the new content, because even the sickos who were already dodging the game’s most elaborate onslaughts are having trouble with these challenging fights. The “Thank You Update,” as Sandfall Interactive is calling it, includes an Endless Tower, which features revamped boss battles from…
