A player who has never watched Rick and Morty installed the Rick, Two Crows, and Morty mods for GTA 5, turning Trevor into Rick or Morty and adding an adjustable-size boy, laser guns, light rings, a flying saucer, and poké balls that generate black holes. Pressing F7 swaps the character while Los Santos descends into chaos with natural disasters and flying cars. He still can't work out how to actually pilot the flying saucer, only making it rise, fall, and occasionally rotate.
A dataminer has uncovered a scrapped, half-finished cutscene in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced featuring Edward Kenway and Miko, which was subsequently taken down by Ubisoft via a copyright strike.

Valve released the Steam Frame's CAD files on Friday evening, letting anyone with a 3D printer or lathe make non-commercial accessories from the official blueprints. Early Frame recipients had already prototyped homemade add-ons, including a back-mounted power bank holder, HackStrap variants that undercut the £59 Ergonomic Accessories Kit, and a lifesize skull stand that stores the controllers.
Burn With Me is a hand-drawn card game where artist Eva Manuilovich's own right hand appears on the right side of each match, dealing cards and giving a thumbs-up when you beat the target score. Players take on the role of occult university students placing five creature cards around a pentagram to fill a vial with spiritual energy, using adjacency modifiers and the ability to incinerate a card to draw a random new one. Steam reviews suggest it lasts around 6-8 hours, and unlike Balatro, it has a story.
Digital Foundry's technical analysis of Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen on Switch 2 finds the port arrives in "surprisingly good shape," with visuals that even surpass Xbox Series S in some areas and DLSS outputting 1080p docked and 720p handheld. However, none of the game's three graphics modes offers a frame rate experience DF can recommend, citing poor frame pacing at 30fps, VRR issues undocked, and worse input latency in the frame-generation mode. DF still credits Capcom for squeezing such a demanding open-world RPG onto Switch 2 hardware.

Coder Lorean Xavier has built an open source porting tool that creates a playable x86 PC executable from the original PS4 files of Hideo Kojima's P.T., rebuilding the engine in C++ and Vulkan to recreate every level, model, texture, sound, script and cutscene. Players still need their own legitimate decrypted copy of the original P.T. to generate a playable PC version. The native port adds upscaling, frame generation, a camera mode, experimental third-person and VR support, and a "museum" section for viewing and listening to in-game assets, including unused content.
