Digital Foundry | DF Weekly: are the latest Switch 2 and PS5 Pro leaks actually plausible?
New hardware is en route - but can we believe the rumours?
Welcome to the very latest edition of DF Direct Weekly - Digital Foundry's regular, scheduled show discussing the latest in gaming and technology news. In an all-too-predictable scenario, we completed filming on this one several hours before the latest PlayStation 5 Pro rumours emerged, but we're looking into those as I write this. For this week's show, our focus is on the latest trailer for Marvel's Spider-Man 2, its associated custom PlayStation 5 console, along with the first of what is likely to be many Switch 2 fakes. This one isn't particularly compelling, but I thought it might be interesting to share our current thoughts on what we think is real and what is certainly not.

Digital Foundry | Pikmin 1+2 on Switch gets the job done - but it could have been so much more
If modders can deliver HD textures and 60fps, why can't Nintendo?
There's never been a better time to get into the Pikmin series. Pikmin 4 of course has just hit shelves - but for those keen to explore the origins of the series, Nintendo has you covered with the release of Pikmin 1 and 2 on Switch. It's not described as a remaster and it's certainly not a remake, merely an 'HD version' and understanding this is key to measuring our expectations going in. This package of Pikmin games does more or less exactly what it says on the tin. You get both GameCube classics, presented at a higher resolution, with a few extra tweaks to sweeten the deal - such as upgraded cut-scenes. So how does Pikmin 1 and Pikmin 2 on Switch ultimately stack up to the 2001 and 2004 GameCube originals? And how does performance hold up - bearing in mind this appears to partly run through emulation on Switch?

Feature | Gunbrella continues to be a great Mary-Poppins-with-a-shotgun simulator
When the sun shines, we'll shine together.
Gunbrella is one of those action games enlivened by a little bit of recurrent magic that never really fades. The magic lies with the Gunbrella itself. This is a 2D platformer and blaster, with a focus on exploration and a bit of light RPG stuff in the quests. But at the heart of it all is the Gunbrella your character wields, both gun and - yes - umbrella, and an absolute delight in every way.

Digital Foundry | Portal: Prelude RTX brings a classic Source mod to the forefront of graphics technology
The first RTX IO game loads faster with less texture pop-in.
Portal: Prelude RTX is an impressive showcase of Nvidia's RTX Remix technology, which takes what was once a Source mod for Portal and gives it visual features and technology that rival and even surpass high-end triple AAA releases. It is truly spectacular - and hopefully one of many path-traced remasters to come in the future as the RTX Remix modding tools approach release.
