We’re diving into the latest on Rockstar's titan, a sudden departure at Bungie, and a matchmaking revolution over at Embark Studios.GTA 6 Release Date: The "No Delay" Verdict. Tom Henderson recently stated that Rockstar is currently confident in a late 2026 launch (specifically targeting November 19, 2026). While "doom-posting" about a third delay has been rampant, the current word from inside the studio is that the game is deep in the "polish" phase. We’ll discuss why Rockstar is playing it cool and what this means for the rumored $80 price tag.Arc Raiders: Aggression-Based Matchmaking is Real. Embark Studios CEO Patrick Söderlund has officially confirmed what the community has suspected: Arc Raiders uses a "behavior-based" or aggression-based matchmaking system, but we were wrong about how it was implemented. 🔴 JOIN THE LIVE DISCUSSION We are LIVE every day!

Time for my Marathon vidoc reaction asking the question, was I wrong? Has the Marathon Bungie project improved enough to have a chance when it releases in 2026.

Explore Marathon’s dark sci-fi world and survival extraction gameplay, as told by the development team.

If you watch the latest High guard trailer reaction one thing is clear, all these games are the same.
