GTA 6 will make players refuel their cars, and Rockstar knows some players might not love the idea.

At gas stations, players will be able to refuel or repair their vehicles, with refueling taking around 10 seconds and involving a short quick-time event.

Rockstar North co-studio head Rob Nelson seemed aware that players may have mixed feelings about it:

“We’ll see what people say. Do you think people are going to like it?”

“Hey, that’s pretty fast for a fill-up. You can’t complain about that.”

According to TGG, fuel probably won’t be a major issue during normal gameplay, but it could become a problem if you steal a car with very little fuel while trying to escape a robbery.

Final Fantasy VII Revelation will require a download even with physical copies.

Square Enix has confirmed that the physical release will work differently depending on the platform:

>PS5: An internet connection is required to download additional game data to play the physical version.

>Xbox Series X/S: Same requirement, additional game data must be downloaded.

>Nintendo Switch 2: The physical release will be a Game-Key Card, meaning the full game must be downloaded when first launching it.
Switch 2: The download requires at least 130 GB of available storage space.

oh

Final Fantasy VII Revelation will be released physically on PS5 and Xbox Series X but the disc won’t contain the full game.

Square Enix confirms that an internet connection will be required to download additional game data before the physical version can be played.

“An internet connection is required to download additional game data in order to play the physical version of the game.”

at this point I don't think Sony will change that decision 😮‍💨

PLAYSTATION FANS ARE DEFINITELY NOT GIVING UP ANYTIME SOON 🙂‍↔️

The State of Play chat says it all.

Fans were flooding the comments demanding Destiny 3, Bloodborne 2, Kingdom Hearts 4 and, perhaps most importantly:

“NO DISC, NO BUY.” 💿

PlayStation has some serious expectations to meet.

Resident Evil 2 Director Hideki Kamiya says he wanted to play Resident Evil Requiem to experience the return of Leon but the game was too scary for him!

“I mean, just recently this year we had Resident Evil Requiem and the big return of Leon Kennedy, and he went back to Raccoon City, and he’s reliving all of those memories and all of those experiences.

As somebody who directed that original game, Resident Evil 2, I was curious to know how that panned out for him. I wanted to experience that myself as a player, but the game was way too scary, and I couldn’t.

And so, it’s not a joke. I legitimately wished it would include some kind of non-horror mode for people like me…

Why not have a mode that just puts, like, brown paper bags on all of their heads, or instead of having these dark, dingy rooms everywhere, they could have really pleasant mood lighting.”

CD Projekt Red says The Witcher 4 is not being developed with a cost-first approach, and the studio believes GTA 6 is being made in a similar way.

CD Projekt Red co-CEO says the company still has to be careful with its budget, but the main priority is delivering the quality fans expect.

“We are cost-conscious. It’s not unimportant. We’re a business in the end.”

“But I definitely wouldn’t say this is a cost-driven development.”

When asked about GTA 6, Nowakowski:

“I doubt if the development of GTA 6 was a cost-driven development. In fact, I’m 100% sure it wasn’t. I think the philosophy might be very similar in many ways.”

GTA 6’s Wanted System May Be More Detailed Than We Thought

The meaning behind the different Wanted icons in Grand Theft Auto VI may have been uncovered.

According to GTA 6 analyst , each icon could indicate exactly what the police know about you:

• 📹 CCTV Camera — You’ve been spotted on surveillance
• 👥 Two People — Police are searching for a couple
• 👕 Clothing — Police know what you’re wearing
• 👤 Person — Police know your identity
• 🔫 Gun — Police know which weapon was used
