Path of Exile delays expansion to dodge Cyberpunk 2077
Shifting gears.
Cyberpunk 2077 is likely to be one of the biggest game releases this year - to put it mildly - and when it does finally emerge from development, it's likely to absorb the attention of consumers and media alike.

Digital Foundry | AMD unveils three Radeon 6000 graphics cards with ray tracing and RTX-beating performance
The RX 6800, 6800 XT and 6900 XT are coming soon.
It's time for BIG NAVI, as AMD has unveiled their new Radeon graphics cards: the $579 RX 6800, $649 RX 6800 XT and $999 RX 6900 XT. AMD claims that the cards should meet or beat Nvidia's flagship RTX 30-series graphics cards, all the way up to the $1499 RTX 3090, often at lower price and while consuming less power. The 6000-series cards are also the first desktop AMD GPUs to support real-time ray tracing, variable rate shading and other DirectX 12 Ultimate features. All in all, it's an exciting package for AMD fans - and would-be Nvidia users that might have become frustrated with poor RTX 30-series availability.

Stem subjects.
Between its dusty plant pots and dew-laden leaves, Nintendo's cute take on the strategy genre has always been more than the sum of its parts. Whether those pieces were the spaceship components you rushed to recover in Pikmin 1 or the household items you found littering the landscapes of Pikmin 2, your route to those hidden treasures was always about more than simply hoovering the map of its goodies. Pikmin's charm lies in the gradual growth of your dinky armies, the act of plucking new creatures from the ground to replace their fallen forebears, the battles where you must attempt to protect them from harm.
