Grand Theft Auto 5 was made playable in a browser before it was pulled offline, amid an explosion of AI-fueled games across the internet.

Footage of GTA 5 running in a browser spread via social media yesterday, though the game's website is now offline — with reports that hosting service Cloudflare stepped in to intervene.

This latest development follows last week's cease and desist sent by Bethesda to block the AI-generated Fallout: New York fan project, which was also made playable via a PC browser. That game had been built by Claude Opus 5.5, and it seems likely that the PC build of GTA 5 was compiled similarly.

The owner of the GTA 5 browser website is now asking "Who wants the source code?" https://t.co/pEs6lLSXhP

Last week, IGN reported on the original Xbox version of Halo: Combat Evolved, which was made available to play in a web browser. This is not a port of Bungie’s seminal 2001 first-person shooter, rather the original Xbox game running in your browser.

There's no doubting the popularity of these AI-built clones or derivative games, with images and gameplay videos being shared widely on social media alongside impressed responses from fans. But the owners of these franchises such as Rockstar and Bethesda will inevitably take a dim view of what they will likely see as piracy — particularly in the case of GTA 5's port.

Still, it remains to be seen exactly how the rapid progress of AI will be checked — or how AI-generated versions of popular games will be policed in future, beyond publishers simply playing whack-a-mole as popular examples pop up.

AI is making what was traditionally a painstaking process of reverse-engineering and recompilation significantly faster, which has prompted some to wonder about the future of commercial video game development. Why buy a Switch 2 if you can have AI generate a clone of one of Nintendo's exclusives for free in your browser?

Others, though, have pointed out that none of the "game-merging" mods or clones display any creativity or present any new ideas, rather take existing popular video games and either mash them together or simply replicate what is already playable better elsewhere.

The question for Rockstar and parent company Take-Two now is, how long will it take for GTA 6 to be made playable in a browser, and what can it do to stop it?

Ubisoft will attempt to relaunch Watch Dogs: Legion next year via a revamped Director's Cut, it's been reported.

Legion launched back in 2020 to a somewhat tepid reaction, and the once-promising franchise has subsequently been rested, with no all-new game believed to be in development. But there is a push to do more with Legion early next year, Insider Gaming has reported — something that IGN has also heard through its own sources.

Watch Dogs: Legion divided fans by ditching the series' single-protagonist focus, and instead allowing you to play as any NPC from its virtual recreation of post-Brexit London. In practice, though, that meant playing as one of various archetypes (builder, hooligan, spy) who could be killed off if you failed missions.

Later DLC added Watch Dogs 1's Aiden Pearce and Watch Dogs 2's Wrench as playable characters, before an Assassin's Creed expansion attempted to reignite interest with a fun but non-canonical crossover featuring a descendant of Assassin's Creed Syndicate's Jacob and Evie Fry.

What could Watch Dogs: Legion Director's Cut contain? It seems likely to expect the above content to be included from the off, and perhaps more of a focus on the series' more recognizable faces, rather than that ability to play as anyone — but time will tell.

Watch Dogs: Legion creative director Clint Hocking abruptly parted ways with Ubisoft earlier this year, despite being in the middle of leading development on Assassin's Creed Hexe. Subsequently, Hocking said the experience of leading a large team within Ubisoft had been like working while "flaming barrels [are] falling down from a construction site," akin to a scene from the arcade game Donkey Kong.

This month, Ubisoft boss Yves Guillemot acknowledged the fact that Watch Dogs hadn't been named alongside its other major franchises as a focus for the company following its recent restructure, but said it was still considered "an important brand for the future." In the meantime, it remains unclear what is happening with the long-planned Watch Dogs movie project that wrapped production two years ago and had reshoots last year, but still lacks a release date.

Following the launch of Halo: Campaign Evolved, Halo Studios has put out a blog post detailing plans for the future of Master Chief’s story. It’s an interesting look at where the series might have gone, prior to the recent announcement that Activision is now the shepherd of the Halo series.

The next Halo game was reportedly still years away, but the blog post, penned by Halo franchise writer Alex Wakeford, gives us a peek behind the curtain with hints about the studio’s plans, but also an attempt at canonizing a story that’s been told through games, remakes, books, and TV. You can check out the blog post for its list of retcons and continuity clarifications.

While the majority of the blog was written prior to the Xbox reshuffle, when Halo Studios thought the series was still in its hands, there are addendums written prior to the news breaking. At one point, Wakeford joked that you’ll have to wait until next week to find out more about the Sacristan Order, before dropping a note: “This joke sure took on new dimensions after last week's news.”

Elsewhere, Wakeford talked about the next novel by Troy Denning, titled Halo: Fireteam Noble. “Many have been asking whether this novel will still be releasing,” Wakeford said. “To this we can say that it is absolutely our intent to see this project cross the finish line. Troy has written a fantastic story and a good chunk of the editorial process has been conducted.”

Another novel, Halo: Burn the Road Home, written by senior franchise writer at Halo Studios, Kenneth Peters, is also in the works, though its future is as uncertain as Fireteam Noble. There’s no word on whether preorders will get a refund if the projects don’t make it over the line.

We also have official art of the Primordial, by Sam Wood. The Primordial would go on to become the Gravemind from Halo 2. "A creature of horrifying providence and intent known by many names — the Timeless One, the Primordial, and eventually the Gravemind," Wakeford said. "This twisted progeny of the Precursors was executed by Bornstellar through the use of a timelock on Gyre 11, reducing its form to dust by subjecting it to the passage of millions of years in mere moments. But the Primordial's experiments had borne fruit. Having infected itself with the Flood, the consciousness of this strange being passed into the parasite's hive mind where it is awakened whenever the Flood successfully form a compound intelligence."

Perhaps the most interesting bit of information for Halo lore fans comes at the end of the blog post with a tease of the Xalanyn, children of Abaddon. "THE ENDLESS EMERGE," Wakeford declared. "And finally, as is tradition, we’ll leave you with something that hopefully sparks your imagination and lets your canon curiosities run wild with endless questions."

The Xalanyn are an advanced race of immortal beings whose members were imprisoned by the Forerunners. The suggestion here is Halo 7, or whatever Halo Studios' now scrapped next Halo game would have been called, would have revealed more of the mysterious overarching antagonists.

The concept art is very cool and makes me a bit sad that Halo will probably never see them. It’s about time Halo got some new enemies to chew through. Instead, Halo will probably become Xbox’s Call of Duty (let’s pretend Call of Duty isn’t Xbox’s Call of Duty, for the sake of argument).

Halo Studios’ final game in the series was released globally on July 28, 2026, with IGN’s Halo: Campaign Evolved review praising the “gunplay that revolutionized first-person console games” which makes it still “worth playing today.” The game was a testbed for a switch to the Unreal Engine, following a middling launch for Halo Infinite, which used the studio’s proprietary Slipspace Engine.

Yesterday, people at Ninja Theory announced layoffs following the Xbox reshuffle that resulted in the studio closing down. Staff at Gears of War: E-Day developer The Coalition are also reportedly expecting layoffs, despite positive reviews of the studio’s latest game.

Don't hold your breath for a new Watch Dogs game anytime soon.

As reported by Game File, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot was asked by an investor about the future of the Watch Dogs franchise. The CEO noted that Ubisoft considers the IP "to be an important brand for the future" but neglected to explain how. Game File's Stephen Totilo stated that Guillemot suggested that there are no Watch Dogs games in active development at the moment, which suggests Ubisoft may still be figuring out where to take the series from here.

There is a Watch Dogs movie on the horizon, but there's no word on when it will be released. The film wrapped production two years ago and had reshoots last year, but there hasn't been any sort of meaningful promotion for the film to date. As of right now, it doesn't even have a release date, which makes it even more of a mystery.

Watch Dogs made its debut back in 2014, though it was initially meant to launch simultaneously with the PS4 in November 2013. Ubisoft hyped it up as a direct competitor to Grand Theft Auto 5, which released in September 2013. Unfortunately, many felt it was unable to reach some of its ambitions, but it still managed to make a dent in the open-world crime genre. Two years later, Ubisoft launched a much more impressive sequel set in San Francisco, but failed to keep the momentum going with its third installment.

Watch Dogs: Legion was released in 2020, also boasting ambitious ideas, such as the ability to control any NPC in the world. Unfortunately, the game received generally mixed reception from fans. Since then, there have been a lot of question marks around the future of the franchise. It seems Ubisoft wants to do more with Watch Dogs, but it may be trying to figure out how it can separate itself from a game like Grand Theft Auto 6, which is set to shake up the genre in November.

There may be more Watch Dogs games one day, but don't expect them within the next few years.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance studio co-founder Martin Klima is "bored and tired" of RPGs that are just "power fantasy" trips "for teenagers."

The Warhorse Studios developer shared his thoughts about his least favorite kind of RPG during an interview with PC Gamer. Kingdom Come: Deliverance has received praise for straying from the beaten path in the past, and Klima's comments suggest that's no accident.

He admitted that the role-playing genre is one he enjoys. What he doesn't enjoy are the RPGs that set the player up to be "the chosen one" with a "grand task of saving the universe." It's a straightforward set-up that he's "bored and tired" of seeing, calling these kinds of experiences "repetitive."

"It's really a distillation of what the common RPG is," Klima said. "So, I found that there must be many, many people who are really tired of this formula and who want something new and different."

He continued: "The games that were and sort of are being made are still the games for teenagers. If you are 16, 17, you love playing these power fantasy games because it's something that you need. But the audience is much older today … everybody's going to think that I am hating on Expedition 33 right now, but that's definitely not the case."

There is no doubt a section of RPG fans who would agree with Klima's assessment. The question, though, remains: Why? He believes a reliance on strategies and designs that have worked in the past is to blame, saying major publishers are "best at recycling the same formula over and over."

Ubisoft is one of the more specific examples that came to mind. He called the "craftsmanship" of the publisher's games "excellent," pointing out that its games are mostly free of bugs and feature standout animations and character models. He'd prefer if that same level of craftsmanship was used on more innovative ideas, even if he doesn't have "any easy answers" for a company that could be taking financial risks when experimenting at that level.

"I played the original Assassin's Creed, and the original Far Cry, and the original Watch Dogs, and most of these games in the first iterations, and it was fun," he added. "But once you play the same game for the 10th time, it sort of becomes stale."

Klima recently commented on how he hopes GTA 6 will be able to "blaze a trail" for increased game prices. IGN reviewed Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 when it came out last year and gave it a 9/10.

NBA 2K25 is being delisted after just two years, and players will soon no longer be able to play the game's single player story mode.

Launched back in September 2024, NBA 2K25 is the latest NBA game that is being pulled from digital stores. 2K will be pulling the game from purchase starting on October 30, 2026. Additionally, online servers will be shut down on January 1, 2027. As a result, the game's multiplayer modes and MyCareer, the game's single-player story mode, will become unplayable. MyCareer is linked to the game's online capabilities, as progression and the game's virtual currency are all dependent on a connection to the servers. If there are no servers, the mode becomes unplayable.

Those who purchase NBA 2K25 before October 30 will be able to freely download the game and play offline modes whenever they want. You can read 2K's statement on the matter below.

"As of January 1, 2027, you'll no longer be able to play multiplayer games or access any online game modes. MyCAREER and MyTEAM will no longer be available, and it will no longer be possible to earn Virtual Currency (VC). While you will still be able to enjoy Play Now, MyNBA, The W, and MyWNBA, any features that require a connection to 2K servers will be unavailable. This includes multiplayer, Online Leagues, and community sharing."

Although it's not uncommon for much older games to have their servers shut down, 2K has been delisting and killing recent NBA games in the last few years. While there's likely a very small percentage of players playing these titles anyway since the player base often moves to the current game, it is a disappointing move. It forces players to move to the new games, regardless if they want to or not. Although most sports games have modest iterations with each new entry, some titles remove features and modes, meaning some legacy content is outright non-existent anymore.

If you were a fan of NBA 2K's standalone All-Star Team-Up mode, that is no longer accessible because previous versions of the game were delisted and taken offline. It also means a lot of your effort in MyCareer is rendered somewhat useless since it has an expiration date. However, given fans keep buying the series, it doesn't seem to be hurting the franchise.

Fortnite has quietly replaced a piece of in-game artwork after fans spotted its original version contained a Google Gemini AI watermark.

Epic Games added the music track "Meow" by Ironmouse, Sleeping Forest & HalaCG to Fortnite last month, with the telltale Gemini watermark in the track artwork's bottom right corner. This lay mostly unnoticed until last weekend, when its wider discovery prompted something of a minor kerfuffle on social media and Reddit.

As of this morning, however, this artwork has been replaced with an alternate version (with no Gemini watermark). But after closer inspection, it's worth pointing out that the Gemini usage was present in the track list's original art that Epic Games simply incorporated in-game. Go check the track on Spotify, and the Gemini mark is there, too. In other words, the Gemini usage here is the fault of whoever made the track art initially — not Epic Games.

So, why the switcheroo? AI-generated artwork in Fortnite is a contentious subject for fans who have pointed to previous dubious examples such as an in-game poster featuring a nine-toed character in a hammock to suggest that Epic Games was resorting to poor-quality AI work rather than using human designers. A more recent, official developer video then pulled back the curtain on Epic Games' AI use, showcasing how the company experiments with AI in the conceptual phase when creating characters and in-game locations.

All of that said, Epic Games has always shied away from strictly confirming any particular in-game art is AI generated, and has maintained at least a veneer of quality over the evergreen battle royale it continually toils to keep popular. To date, there hasn't been anything quite as egregious as Call of Duty's embarrassing and grotesque six-fingered Santa.

The fact that Epic Games has made the switch here is, if anything, a positive sign that it does not want to openly show artwork featuring obvious AI elements, such as that Gemini watermark, in Fortnite.

Meanwhile, over the weekend, Disney stated that its rumored desire to buy Epic Games was not something it was planning to act on — at least right now.

Mighty Mike Plays dad Dave has promised refunds and issued a lengthy explanation after the internet demanded more information about the YouTube ads allegedly purchased by his son and the drama that followed.

The saga began when a father took to his son's YouTube channel, Mighty Mike Plays, to announce that his child had allegedly used a company credit card to purchase $118,000 in video ads. It was a painful and highly relatable story that snowballed into a full-fledged internet spectacle when pricey AI-generated T-shirts and questionable details led many online to look for concrete answers.

The controversial father figure came clean in a new video titled "Allow me to Explain" that was uploaded to the Mighty Mike Plays channel last week (via Dexerto). Dave started the hour-long explainer – which has since been deleted and re-uploaded on a new YouTube channel called Coffee Time with Dave – promising that everyone who purchased one of those T-shirts would receive a refund.

“this might be the end of Mighty Mike Plays…” is the funniest thing you could say in front of your dad after putting him 118k in debt and getting him fired

— Mako Fukasame 🦈👩‍🏫 | Vershion AU (@MakoFukasame) September 15, 2026

"Dave here. A.k.a. Devoted Dave. A.k.a. Dazzling Dave. A.k.a. Dependable Dave, and the list goes on," Dave said. "I want to give you guys an update: First off, I'm going to say that everyone that got a shirt got refunded whether they asked for it or not. So, whether you wanted a refund or not, you got it."

The full video covers allegations related to the Mighty Mike Plays drama and also covers a lot that has nothing to do with it at all. Dave's headline he wants to share, though, is that this all blew up so much faster and so much bigger than he ever expected it to be.

He explained that he thought he was simply "venting" about his son's spending with a story that sounds like the kind of thing you'd tell a friend at a bar. Millions of views and a sea of video responses later, and it's clear it didn't pan out the way he ever imagined it would.

"I remember thinking, like, you know, I wonder if this video will hit 10,000 views," he said. "That's kind of where I thought it would cap. I didn't think it would go so viral. Everything happened real-time, organically, and I obviously didn't handle everything the right way, essentially, but just to make it clear: I didn't come to YouTube to ask for help. I wasn't looking for any sort of help."

Part of the reason why the internet gathered with Minecraft fans to help out is because Dave said the $118,000 hole his son put in his company card resulted in him being fired. He also stated he had just 30 days to make up for the missing money, but in the new video, Dave has clarified some of those details.

Instead of losing his job, Dave suggested he technically was not fired in a traditional sense, with that part of the story being a "simplified version" of what actually happened. The reality, he said, is that "the contract between company A and company B just got terminated," adding, "isn't that the same thing?" As many had suspected, he doesn't just own his own company – he owns 12.

"Yeah, I own my own company. So what?" Dave clarified. "In fact, you guys didn't even see – I have like 12 companies. Not all of them are productive, as we speak. Some of them are just collecting dust, and just because someone has a company or is a CEO doesn't mean that, 'Oh, OK. Just by having those titles you're actually conducting a profitable business.'"

He continued: "But just to clarify, I consider that being fired. If my company lost a contract with this important company, then, I mean, how is that not being fired? Fine. I'll be more specific next time."

As for those controversial T-shirts and why he's issuing refunds, Dave said he "didn't want to sit around and let these actual scammers sell people who wanted to be involved in this story." His plan for an official merch page, which allegedly put him "another $10K in the hole," still drew much ire from the internet, at least partially due to its prolific use of AI-generated designs. He explained why he's issued refunds – even if not all that many people found something to buy.

"In retrospect, was AI and the merch the way to go? Was the price the way to go? No," he said. "Look, I'm going to admit when I was wrong: That was not the move. I shouldn't have used AI. Although, at the time, I know I defended it. There is a now-infamous deleted post, which I crashed out."

He later added: "I do agree now, and if I could go back, I'd do it differently, but again, I didn't have the luxury of time. Time was running out. We had to figure something out, so yeah, I had AI create some designs. I still feel like those designs were flawless, gorgeous, beautiful, superb, and there is about 100 people who got free shirts."

It's unclear if Dave's explanation video will be enough to satisfy the many online who looked into the Minecraft YouTube channel after the events surrounding it kicked off last month. If this is the first time you're hearing of Mighty Mike Plays and the drama surrounding AI-generated T-shirt designs, there's no need to fear. We broke down everything you could ever want to know about the story right here.

Former NFL coach Mike Tomlin spent 19 seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers and won Super Bowl LXIII, and now he's added another major accomplishment to his resume: becoming a Minecraft YouTuber.

The former coach gave football fans a little something different when he launched his new YouTube channel earlier this week. With a profile picture taken in front of NBC's Football Night in America logo, watchers probably weren't expecting Tomlin's first upload to see him confess how his love for architecture and family led him to work on a Minecraft city he spent 12 years building.

"You know, 12 or 13 years ago, when my kids were in middle school, they'd be in their room all weekend and have friends over. They were obsessed with playing this game, Minecraft, that I knew nothing about," he explained as his son and channel operator, Dino, sat in the background. "I got interested because I just was mesmerized by what could occupy their attention for such large periods of time."

He admitted he lacked the "stick control" to handle something like Minecraft's Survival mode but still managed to find enjoyment in Creative Mode. That's where Mojang's systems really started to click.

"I like to build," he said. "I've always had an interest in architecture, and so forth, so I started doing this creative city. It was a means of spending time with them. They participated all over this city. All my kids have buildings."

However, as his kids went off to high school and college, their interest in Minecraft waned. For Tomlin, it was just beginning. In 2026, after 12 years of building, the sandbox phenomenon has become therapeutic for the former NFL coach, and what he's built has the internet in disbelief.

"This is where it all started for me," Tomlin said as a blocky blue pond surrounded by detailed city buildings faded into view. His tour then begins with a closer look at a hotel. This one building features a fully fleshed-out interior with labeled rooms, a lobby, a ballroom, a pool, bathrooms, and more. Tomlin even factored in how lighting might affect the views in some of these rooms – and that's just one of many locations he's made.

"I was always inspired," he added. "I'd go places, and I'd see things and buildings, and I get inspired, I go home, and I work on it."

Tomlin then referenced the off-campus housing around universities that he recreated after dropping Dino off at college. The color, floor plans, and other memorable elements all came from these memories, with much of his creation also built around different bodies of water.

Tomlin stepped down as the Steelers' coach in January 2026, with today's video showing how he's spent at least some of the downtime since. He spent years in the NFL, but it's his work as a Minecraft YouTuber that has everyone talking today.

"I'm obsessed why is he genuinely a better builder than me," content creator @Krtzyy said.

"Mike Tomlin becoming a Minecraft YouTuber was not on my bingo card for 2026," one X/Twitter user said.

Tomlin signed off, promising to take a closer look at his city in future videos. He also teased plans to show off something that "I think you're going to find interesting." Despite being maybe the most creative celebrity gamer to come out of 2026, the ex-NFL coach isn't the only notable name to share their love for gaming in the last year. Obsession breakout Inde Navarrette garnered attention for her The Last of Us and Call of Duty streams a few months ago. Newly announced X-Men star, Samara Weaving, is also a big gamer.

Disney has responded after rumors suggested it was interested in buying Fortnite developer Epic Games.

Disney president and chief creative officer Dana Walden touched on the company's relationship with Epic during an interview with Bloomberg Live. When asked if there have been talks about expanding their previously established relationship with a full-on acquisition, she said that strategy isn't something Disney is entertaining, at least right now.

"Well, I think that it was pretty obvious that we had very serious conversations about an investment and an equity stake," Walden responded. "Those are not the conversations we're having right now, but we have a great partnership and a number of launches coming up over the next two years that are going to demonstrate the value of this partnership."

The relationship referenced here was solidified when Disney announced it acquired a $1.5 billion stake in Epic back in early 2024. It was a massive play that it promised would result in collaborations across Fortnite and more in the future.

"Our exciting new relationship with Epic Games will bring together Disney’s beloved brands and franchises with the hugely popular Fortnite in a transformational new games and entertainment universe," then-CEO Bob Iger said. "This marks Disney’s biggest entry ever into the world of games and offers significant opportunities for growth and expansion. We can’t wait for fans to experience the Disney stories and worlds they love in groundbreaking new ways."

We're still feeling the shockwaves of that deal, but some suspected it could evolve into more than a simple partnership. Tech reporter Alex Heath said in March 2026 that some Disney executives were "waiting for that moment" to go all in on an acquisition. Then, in April, Bloomberg reported that Epic was working on an extraction shooter featuring Disney characters with plans to launch in November 2026.

We're now kicking off October with no official mention of that unannounced project, but that doesn't mean Disney x Epic is going anywhere any time soon. While an acquisition isn't in the cards, Walden's promise regarding "a number of launches" set to arrive in the next few years suggests there is plenty more to talk about.

We'll have to wait and see how the two entertainment giants work together moving forward. In the meantime, you can read some of the other ways Disney and Epic have bolstered their relationship, including a Disneyland-exclusive Fortnite skin and officially licensed Star Wars minigames.

I have spent the last three days scrolling through some of the most insane mod videos I've ever seen. Modders are taking games that have been decompiled with Claude, and mashing them up with other games. As the week has gone on, there have only been more clips of these mods pouring out on X/Twitter.

One person created a mashup of World of Warcraft and Call of Duty: World at War; another combined Escape From Tarkov with Skyrim. There’s even one that takes Insomniac’s Spider-Man and combines it with Batman Arkham City, where the player is able to swing around Batman’s turf.

These mods are everywhere online right now, though they thankfully haven’t filtered into modding websites like Nexus Mods yet. But, with the sheer volume of these mods and with how accessible Opus 5.5 is, it feels like it’s only a matter of time before the gates are fully torn down. And if that happens, it could change the face of the modding scene entirely.

Why Now?

Claude Opus 5.5 launched last week, promising cheaper tokens and more efficient code work. I'm sure that Anthropic meant for it to be used by professionals, but gamers have used it to create some of the weirdest mods I have ever seen.

Opus is a model that can power AI agents, which can be deployed to create entire games from the engine, to the art and enemy behavior. Brendan Jowett has a great video on YouTube of the model in action: He develops little slices of video games and compares them directly with the same tasks from OpenAI’s Astra 6 model. While the results of both are far from what you’d expect from a fully featured game, Claude’s new model has clearly come a long way.

The problem with the examples in Jowett’s video is that while the models are good at piecing together disparate parts of a game, enemy AI (lol) and art assets are lackluster to say the least. In one of the slices, a space combat sim, the space fighter flys at a diagonal angle, while moving in a straight line ahead, and shooting. In another slice enemies completely ignore the player character.

As good as Claude Opus 5.5 seems to be, it’s still lightyears away from developing something like a true mashup of Minecraft and Elden Ring from scratch. But the model doesn’t have to start from scratch.

The big, driving force behind a lot of these mods is decompilation, where people are pointing Opus at a game and letting the agent break it down to its source code (here’s a handy blog if you want to really get in the weeds). Just earlier today, we covered Halo: Combat Evolved being decompiled and ported to run natively in a browser. Once that step is complete, it takes little effort to take that source code and work huge swaths of games into other games as mods, and with very little input from the user.

Couple that with the relatively affordable tokens, and it shouldn’t be surprising that X/Twitter’s generally pro-AI users went wild with it, creating hundreds of mashups. And it doesn’t seem like it’s slowing down any time soon; what started off as a weird video that my boss sent me on Tuesday has now evolved to the point where I can’t even open X/Twitter without seeing a deluge of these mods.

Piracy?

The obvious problem with all of this is that these models are breaking open games developed by real people, getting the source code and then just mashing stuff together without consideration or permission from the original developers. That’s nothing particularly new – the modding scene is definitely no stranger to mashups, all the Thomas the Tank Engine mods are proof of that. However, this trend might be breaking into new territory, thanks to decompilation.

This could be another reason none of these mods have made their way onto any distribution platforms. Nexus Mods doesn’t outright ban AI-generated content, but it doesn’t let people use AI tools to upload content that they don’t have the rights to.

In a blog post from 2023, Nexus laid out its rules around AI generated content. The policy states that, “In order to prevent any issues with your mods, we encourage you to avoid using these tools unless you have explicit permission to use all the assets. This is particularly true for AI-generated voice acting but also covers images, models, code and anything else that you can use this technology to create.”

Every single one of these passthrough mods are using images, models, and code that the people generating them don’t have the rights to. But it’s only a matter of time until some platform holder allows these mods to be hosted, and I’m sure a massive legal battle will happen immediately afterwards.

The Modding Community Hates This

Way before all of these Claude-authored mod videos started cropping up online, people had been creating mods by hand for years, typically out of pure love for the game. It shouldn’t be surprising, then, that a lot of mod authors aren’t fans of this phenomenon.

Mod authors have been expressing their frustration on X/Twitter as this has been happening. “I mod games and I'm not shy about the fact that I use AI to do it. I hate this bullshit ‘trend’. Pure slop, there's nothing creative about this at all,” kran27_ posted. “AI has a lot of potential in the modding scene, but the shit that's getting the clicks is this jingling keys bullshit.”

Kran wasn’t alone, with discountmodder ready to just leave the scene, saying, “Dude I'm really disappointed. If this becomes the permanent state of modding, this may be my last project. I don't wanna be involved in an AI slop-factory.”

I can’t escape the feeling that most of these mashups are born from people just playing with a new AI model and seeing what will happen, and I hope that this weird trend will die off soon. Modding is one of the best parts of PC gaming, and there is a lot of incredible content that people make just because they love a game. Some of the best games started off as mods, after all, and without them we never would have got the likes of Half-Life or League of Legends.

I hope that this is just a trend, rather than a sign of where the modding scene is heading. Fortunately, because these mods seemingly only exist to farm engagement on Twitter (at least so far), you don’t have to worry too much about them if you just want to start a new modded run of The Witcher 3 Remastered. If anything, it just means that if you want to avoid AI content, you need to pay even more attention to who you’re getting your mods from.

The countdown to Prime Big Deal Days is officially underway, with just a few days left to go until its start on October 6. In the lead-up, though, Amazon's been dropping some great discounts on a variety of items, including gaming-related goodies. For Xbox fans, the white Xbox Elite Series 2 Core controller is one that's had over $30 slashed off its price tag there, dropping from $149.99 to $111.74.

The person behind a viral AI-generated Fallout: New York game has pulled it offline after receiving a cease and desist from Bethesda.

Earlier this week, a self-styled “AI creative” known as “CHRIS FIRST” on X / Twitter published a video of Fallout: New York, a game built by Claude Opus 5.5 and made playable in a browser. It included quests, companions, dialogue trees, Fallout’s iconic V.A.T.S. combat and even a working Pip-Boy.

The initial video, viewed 3.5 million times on X / Twitter, sparked a debate about the rights and wrongs of CHRIS FIRST’s use of AI, with some calling the game AI slop, and others impressed by the gameplay. As you’d expect, many responded to the video to predict that Bethesda would eventually step in, although CHRIS FIRST seemed somewhat naive to the situation.

“It’s all free and I make 0 money on it,” he tweeted. “I hope they don’t ask me to take it down. I really love Fallout and this was just a fun tech demo. But I should add a quest where you have to serve someone papers, but they keep running away.”

The inevitable now appears to have happened. CHRIS FIRST published an image of what looks like an official cease and desist from Bethesda parent company, ZeniMax Media Inc, which points to trademark infringement for the use of the 'fallout.nyc' domain name, as well as its use of copyrighted material. IGN has asked Microsoft for comment.

CHRIS FIRST, meanwhile, remained defiant in his post even as he confirmed the removal of the game. “Hey, @BethesdaStudios,” they said, “how about you make a Fallout game instead so I don’t have to? Sorry to everyone who enjoyed the game! But the suits got involved and the fun is over.”

No-one is particularly surprised by Bethesda’s action here. “Dude this game was ass and didn’t even look like Fallout,” one person said. “I don’t know why you tried to cash in on their IP lmao. They had every right to C and D you.”

“How about you make some original game instead of copying existing one?” another person suggested. “Like no one saw this coming from a mile away. Ppl can't expect to rip off an IP and not get dmca'd,” another said. One person commented: “Everything ur AI game did was already done before In Fallout just mixed around. No new mechanics or innovation.”

“Wow it’s almost like stealing is bad,” another said. “Not sure what you expected with your AI trash,” one person declared. "I would genuinely rather play Fallout Tactics than this AI generated garbage," another said. "Everyone liked that," Karl Schecht, aka professional 3D and technical artist and YouTuber Kommander Karl, said.

This week has seen a number of viral clips of AI-generated “game-merging mods” in which Minecraft is fused with other famous games in what is a growing and controversial trend. One such video, which shows Minecraft copied into Elden Ring, was viewed 22 million times on X / Twitter.

This in turn has sparked a significant debate about the legality around AI-generated clones and these “game-merging mods,” with some wondering if publishers will step in to take action or push for guardrails that prevent their creation within the AI models themselves. One person has released an AI-generated Splatoon clone, which some believe Nintendo will take a look at sooner rather than later. Another person merged Mario with Elden Ring.

As the debate over AI-generated games rages on, video game publishers will be desperate to keep a tight leash on their franchises. AI is making what was traditionally a painstaking process of reverse-engineering and recompilation significantly faster, which has prompted some to wonder about the future of commercial video game development. Why buy a Switch 2 if you can have AI generate a clone of one of Nintendo's exclusives? Others, though, have pointed out that none of these game-merging mods or clones display any creativity or present any new ideas, rather take existing popular video games and either mash them together or simply replicate what is already playable better elsewhere.

Bethesda is of course working on a number of official Fallout games, including Fallout 5, Fallout 3 and New Vegas remasters, and a spinoff from Fallout: New Vegas developer Obsidian Entertainment. None has a release window, although new Xbox boss Asha Sharma has talked about wanting to double down on the company's biggest franchises, including Fallout.

Metro 2039 is not terribly far away now, launching on February 4, 2027. While that game will truly bring the franchise to current generation consoles, developer 4A Games is launching next-gen updates for the first two games.

Both Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light were incredible tech showcases for their time, but they haven't exactly aged gracefully. Despite getting an intial remaster all the way back in 2014, Metro 2033 doesn't play super well with modern hardware, and I've needed to tweak it every time I've gone back to play it. Luckily, these next-gen updates should bring some long-needed bug fixes to the game.

The update will look different on console and on PC. For PS5 and Xbox Series X, the Metro games will run at either native 4K at 60 fps or an upscaled 4K at 120 fps, with PSSR on PS5 Pro and traditional temporal upscaling on the Xbox consoles. Over on PC, though, the game will finally have DLSS support, along with some unnamed quality-of-life improvements.

4A Games hasn't shared a lot of details on the updates coming to Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light, but it does promise to share full patch notes ahead of its October 22 release on PC and October 29 release on consoles. Either way, as long as the games are more stable, I'm all in.

As a lifelong PC gamer, all three of the Metro games hold a special place in my heart, for all the torture they've put my graphics cards through in the past. Luckily, if you don't like putting your hardware through the wringer, it doesn't sound like 4A is going to add ray tracing or anything crazy to 2033 or Last Light, so they should be significantly easier to run at high settings than they were when they launched in 2010 and 2013.

We've already gone hands-on with Metro 2039, and it seems like an incredible and brutal post-apocalyptic shooter — just like I'd want out of the franchise. The visuals we've seen so far look incredible too, so I can only imagine that it's going to stay true to its roots of pushing PC hardware to its limits. Although, it is launching in the middle of an ongoing RAM crisis, which is going to limit its already niche appeal a bit when the benchmarks start rolling out. Here's to hoping 4A Games finds a way to make a Metro game scalable at launch for once.

The 40th anniversary of Mega Man is just around the corner, celebrating four decades of one of gaming’s most enduring icons. After going hands-on with both Mega Man and Proto Man in the upcoming mainline game Mega Man: Dual Override, IGN had the chance to sit down and chat with the design team.

With the help of an interpreter, I was able to ask Director Shinya Ikuta, Producer Hiroyuki Minamitani, Art Director Yuji Ishihara, and Art Director Shinsuke Komaki, a wide range of questions, from design inspirations for Twinkle Girl, what makes Proto Man and Mega Man different, whether or not we will ever get a Mega Man dating sim, and more. Read on to find the answer to that and other burning questions.

Note that as this was a group interview through a single interpreter, with multiple people contributing, answers will be attributed to the full group, as Capcom.

IGN: This is a big anniversary for Mega Man, and you’ve said the design of this game is meant to celebrate this. Can you tell me a bit about how that anniversary impacts the development goals of this game?

Capcom: Yes, next year is the big 40th anniversary of the Mega Man series. We had decided early on we would be releasing a new game to celebrate this. It’s a celebration of the entire series. There was a lot of discussion across the team about what are elements and things that people would enjoy seeing in a new Mega Man game. It’s safe to say it influenced and inspired the development of Mega Man: Dual Override.

IGN: You said recently that even though this is a mainline game, the number was dropped from the title so as not to intimate newcomers. From a game development standpoint, how do you balance creating a game that is welcoming to newcomers, with creating a game that has the difficulty that experienced players are accustomed to and expect?

Capcom: It’s important for us to be welcoming to players who have never played a Mega Man game. That’s why we’ve incorporated new elements like the custom chip system, and the fact that each stage is broken into three areas. You may have noticed the areas get more difficult over time. That is very much intentional. We wanted to make the earlier areas a little more friendly so that it gradually gets more difficult, but also so that players can collect chips by completing the areas.

In the final version of the game, completing areas gets you chips, which you can use to customize your characters, and that will hopefully help elevate your gameplay, and enable you to overcome challenges that you might normally have a difficult time with. You can also go to a completely different robot masters stage, complete the first [easier] area, collect chips, then go back to an area that you are having trouble with.

At the same time, Twinkle Girl was made to be challenging, but rewarding. That is very much important for any Mega Man game, including Dual Override. Maintaining the expectations that veteran players and longtime fans have is very important.

IGN: In terms of the chips, you mentioned that you get those as you advance through various stages. Do we have a rough idea for how many chips or combinations are available?

Capcom: As you play through the different areas you collect the screws, and then with those screws you can trade in for different chips in the game. We have mentioned that there are going to be over 50 chips that the game will have to offer. These chips vary in different effects, whether it be active moves that you can perform, or them being passive effects. There’s going to be a good amount, and different combinations to use them in.

IGN: The override mechanic itself features a power boost followed by the period of weakness afterwards. What was the inspiration for that?

Capcom: The team wanted to experiment and try out something where Mega Man would transform for a brief period of time, look cool, and he becomes stronger, but also come with a risk, where he loses certain abilities for a brief time. This was an idea that we wanted to execute for quite a while and we were finally able to do it with this.

Although there is some risk involved with executing the override system, the period of time where you are weakened isn’t too strenuous. We hope that people will give it a try, and feel comfortable utilizing it. Even his look in override form looks cool and powerful, but there’s a danger element to it as well. Like maybe there is some sort of risk involved in it too. Hopefully that came through in the design.

IGN: Will you play through the entire game as one character, or can you switch between Mega Man and Proto Man?

Capcom: Within the same progression, once you start a character you will play with them until the completion of the game. Otherwise you can start a playthrough with the other character.

IGN: Does the story vary between the two playthroughs?

Capcom: The overarching story is the same, but as you progress, you’ll get to see their personalities in different ways, depending on which character you play with, and you’ll get to hear different speaking lines.

IGN: When it comes time to come up with the concept for new robot masters, by this point there have been over 100 of them, how does that work? Do people pitch in ideas? Are they informed by the levels? Is there a top secret book that no one knows about that has a list that has been gathered over the years?

Capcom: Actually a lot of people pitch in ideas, saying, “What about this robot, or this idea?” And then other staff will say they want to illustrate certain robots. They are all very enthusiastic about suggestions, and coming up with ideas. It’s also been a while since the last Mega Man game, and everyone has had a long time to brainstorm and come up with different ideas for Mega Man: Dual Override. We’ve had a lot of different Robot Masters, and it’s important to not overlap with the other ones, but more importantly, it’s important to come up with a concept that’s easy to understand, easy to grasp from a player perspective, and make something appealing. It’s challenging, but rewarding at the same time.

IGN: What was the origin of the design and concept for Twinkle Girl?

Capcom: We started out with the motif, or the theme of the boss. For Twinkle Girl it’s fireworks. Her stage is at the Robot Exhibit, she’s supposed to be an entertainer robot at the exhibit. And we wanted to make a female character. She’s also the first Robot Master we designed [for this game], and influenced a lot of the design of the other designs moving forward.

We tried different things, like what if she looked like a big firework, but that didn’t really pan out. Eventually we decided to make her more of a humanoid robot. We had a lot of fun making her.

IGN: This is a modern version of the classic Mega Man format, but over the years, we’ve seen various genre mash-ups, like kart racing, fighting games, RPGs. Are there genres in the future you are interested in exploring? Will we get a Mega Man survival horror game, or the Mega Man dating sim?

Capcom: (laughs) Obviously we can’t really comment on what’s going to happen in the future, but there are a lot of different ideas about how Mega Man can be incorporated into different genres.

IGN: With how cheery and bubbly Twinkle Girl is, do you have any fear that some people won’t want to fight her?

Capcom: Yes! We focused on making Twinkle Girl as appealing and attractive as possible. We would understand if people may have some hesitancy about defeating her. But this is Mega Man’s fate, it’s his heroic duty to defeat the Robot Masters, so that’s something that has to happen.

Obviously the Robot Masters are considered enemies in the world of Mega Man, but they are also the cast within the game. In terms of Twinkle Girl, she runs rampant and goes out of control, but doesn’t have any deadly intentions, which makes it a little more palatable.

IGN: So many video games take inspiration from the 40 years of Mega Man. Do you pay attention to those at all? Or do you focus solely on creating Mega Man in a unique, isolated space, for others to follow?

Capcom: We definitely can’t neglect the Mega Man-like aspects. There are things that make Mega Man, Mega Man, and those are things that we need to continue valuing and cherishing, and making an important aspect for future games and Dual Override. At the same time, it’s not like the team can just make whatever they think is right for a Mega Man game. The team does understand the market, trends, sees player behavior, and sees what is going on around them when making a game.

So the answer is both. It’s a healthy balance of maintaining those two things and doing what is right for our audience.

IGN: Thank you all so much for your time.

Capcom: Thank you.

Parts of this interview were edited for clarity.

Justin Koreis is a regular contributor to IGN. Check him out on BlueSky.

Jason Jones, one of the co-founders of Bungie and a co-creator of Halo and Destiny, has announced his new studio, Stone Kite, which will work on projects across various entertainment mediums. The studio's first release is One Zero One, a limited-series comic book based on a manuscript written by Jones. Check out some page selects in the gallery below.

The Los Angeles-based studio is a partnership with Margaret Stohl, a Bungie veteran who has written 14 books as well as numerous games and Marvel Comics in her career. She serves as Stone Kite's CEO. “I've spent my career creating books, games, comics, film and television, and I've seen how often the medium that tells the first story ends up defining everything that comes after it,” she said. “Stone Kite is about breaking down those old media silos. Instead of starting in one medium and adapting outward, we bring the best global creators from different disciplines into the room from day one to shape the world together. We change the conversation. We never say that’s how it’s traditionally done. We build communities, and we listen to them. That’s how we’re creating worlds that people can explore for decades, in whatever ways they want.”

“I’ve spent my whole life making games, but I’ve always wanted to write,” Jones said. “I used to bike fifteen miles along Lake Michigan to the used bookstores in North Chicago, and bike home again with a backpack full of sci-fi paperbacks. Margie was the first person to believe I could write a book of my own, the first person to read it, and the one person I trusted to help me develop it into epic entertainment that leaves the world a better place.”

One Zero One is a four-part limited comic series about an impending face-off between humans and a rogue army of AI-driven robots. Part 1 is available now in digital form on the Stone Kite website, which is also where you can preorder a physical copy.

Jones co-founded Bungie in 1991 and stayed with it until his position as Chief Vision Officer was reportedly part of the widespread studio layoffs enacted by Sony earlier this year, which today's Stone Kite announcement would certainly seem to confirm. Jones is regarded as a visionary game designer and rarely gives interviews. In fact, his career-spanning interview with IGN in 2013 was his first interview in over a decade at the time, and he's rarely spoken publicly since.

Bungie, meanwhile, which had officially ended support for Destiny 2 earlier this year, announced last week that it is in fact not finished yet.

A modder who was porting GTA 5 to Nintendo Switch taunted Rockstar Games and was immediately hit with a cease and desist.

The modder, known as Mojso, was planning to bring GTA 5 and GTA Online to Nintendo Switch for modded versions of the console and got a bit cocky. After Rockstar Games recently posted its guidelines for modding (which forbids unofficial ports), the modder posted: "Try me Rockstar, [I don't give a f**k.]"

Three days later, the modder's Discord server was taken down for copyright infringement, but it didn't seem to deter them. After many warned them about how litigous Rockstar Games and parent company Take-Two are, the modder suggested they aren't worried about it: "Copyright infringement is anything but enforced in Serbia."

Less than a week later, the modder confirmed they had received a cease and desist from Take-Two Interactive and thanked the company for its "mercy." As a result, the port will never see the light of day, as Mojso has stated that they don't want to risk any legal issues.

"Paralympics Productions is shutting down on October 3rd. Thank you everyone who supported us through tough times and lenghty development. I am sorry for not fulfilling your expectations and leaving you high and dry. I am thankful for Take-Two's mercy so this is the definitive end," they wrote.

When people pointed back to the modder's post about taunting Rockstar, Mojso noted that they didn't actually expect Rockstar to do anything.

"They tried me," Mojso said. "[What the] f**k [do] you want me to do? Fight with them in court? I wasn't expecting them to hit back hard."

The modder had been working on this port using leaked GTA 5 source code, which has resulted in a bevy of other leaks and issues. Ultimately, it's probably in your best interest to not taunt massive corporations that are known for hunting down people that mess with their IP.

October's PlayStation Plus monthly games lineup has been officially revealed by Sony.

This month's trio of titles include a slightly out of date racer, a monster-filled extraction shooter, and a multiplayer voxel shooter. Let's dive in.

Launched last year, F1 25 is the actually pretty good entry in Codemasters' long-running Formula 1 racing series that we awarded with an 8/10. "F1 25 is a far broader and better package than last year’s installment, and it’s comfortably the strongest the series has been since the fan favourite F1 2020," we wrote in IGN's F1 25 review.

Next up, Hunt: Showdown 1896, Crytek's first-person extraction shooter that sends you off to fight mythological monsters. Originally launched in early acces back in 2018, when we awarded the game a 7.5/10 in our Hunt: Showdown 1896 review, this PS5 version also features a battle royale offering. And don't worry if you haven't played the first 1895 games in the series, you'll soon pick it up.

Finally, Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 is available for PS4 and PS5. This third-person shooter with local and online co-op tells the story of what happened to the voxelEarth after the events of the first installment. Brothers from across the world reunite to face an unprecedented threat brought about by an all-new enemy that threatens to tear the Earth apart all over again.

PlayStation Plus Monthly Games for October 2026

PlayStation Plus Extra/Premium:

• F1 25 (PS5)
• Hunt: Showdown 1896 (PS5)
• Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 (PS4, PS5)

So, anything you fancy?

Humble Choice - September 2026

The Witcher 3 Remastered can be unlocked on Switch 2 for free via any physical version of the game for Switch — whether its your copy of the game or not.

Switch 2 owners have discovered that physical cartridges for The Witcher 3 on Switch can be used an unlimited number of times to grant a digital copy of The Witcher 3 Remastered. So, all you need to do is rent or borrow a copy of the game to unlock unlimited access. And no, you don't need to keep the original game cartridge inserted after unlocking the upgraded digital version.

Have a friend with the game? Ask to borrow it! Have a cheap second-hand game shop nearby? Head in and see if there's a copy for sale, and then trade it back in!

This remarkably generous solution is the result of CD Projekt keeping its promise that upgrades for the newly-relaunched RPG classic will be free on all platforms, even for physical copies. And while there's no version of The Witcher 3 Remastered for Nintendo's original Switch, the game will unlock a free version of Remastered for Switch 2.

Major features added in the remaster include improvements to combat, traversal and movement, plus revamped mount handling, enhanced monster behaviors, a skill tree revamp, armor transmog, an expanded photo mode, new finishers and much more.

Other additions include the long-awaited cross-platform mod support, new quest tracking, immersive meditation, refined animations, UI improvements, a looting rework, refreshed motion blur, new accessibility features, a tutorial modernization, HDR improvements, a foliage shading rework, ray-tracing improvements, a global lighting reork, new shading model, subsurface scattering, and a new tone mapper.

Of course, all of this is coming ahead of next year's Songs of the Past, The Witcher 3's third expansion, which you will need to pay for. While that's still some time away (we don't know yet exactly when in 2027 it will arrive), The Witcher 3 Remastered is an enormous game — and remember, it also now includes the game's first two expansions as standard. So, you'd better get started.

To ease you into Geralt’s life on the road, check out the Things The Witcher 3 Doesn’t Tell You, plus IGN’s The Witcher 3 Walkthrough and The Witcher 3 Endings guide, which outlines all of the major quests and choices in the base game and expansions (now bundled in with the Remastered edition). When you’re ready for the tough choices, check out our The Witcher 3 Sex and Romance guide to see who Geralt can smooch and all the opportunities to do so. And to make Geralt as strong a monster hunter as possible, check out all the Witcher Gear Locations, Places of Power Locations, and even Gwent Card Locations.
