Key Takeaways

📺 Ready Or Not Secures Console Release

Ready Or Not secures console release after heavy content edits to meet platform standards. According to Eurogamer, VOID Interactive removed or softened violent and nudity elements on PC to satisfy PlayStation 5 and Xbox's submission requirements, ensuring the SWAT-style shooter can hit living rooms as well as gaming rigs (Eurogamer report on in-game adjustments). The changes, showcased in the "Weight of the Badge" trailer, reflect a broader push for cross-platform accessibility without compromising tactical depth.


Players can now look forward to experiencing Ready or Not's intense hostage-rescue scenarios on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, joining the existing PC community. While VOID Interactive hasn't confirmed a concrete console launch date, the promise of console-exclusive optimizations—like enhanced haptic feedback on DualSense controllers and smart-delivery on Xbox—suggests a polished debut. Whether you're team flashbang or door-breach, the console edition will bring new audiences into the fold without sacrificing the methodical gameplay that veterans crave.

📺 Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition Sells Out Rapidly

Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition sells out instantly, marking one of the fastest hardware sell-throughs in recent VR memory. As reported by Upload VR, stock vanished within hours of launch, leaving eager fans on backorder lists (Upload VR on Quest 3S Xbox Edition shortage). The collaboration between Microsoft and Meta underscores the growing synergies between console and VR ecosystems, with the limited edition bundle including Xbox-branded faceplates and pre-installed Xbox apps.


How to download the Xbox app on Meta Quest 3 and 3S is straightforward: simply open the Meta Store on your headset, search "Xbox", and select the free download. Once installed, sign in with your Microsoft account to stream Xbox Cloud Gaming titles directly to your Quest headset, enjoying games like Forza Horizon 5 and Halo Infinite in immersive VR. For an in-depth look at the hardware, check out the official announcement trailer courtesy of IGN, showcasing the sleek design and seamless app integration.

📺 Bandai Namco Summer Showcase 2025 Revealed

Bandai Namco Summer Showcase 2025 reveals lineup and teases a new My Hero Academia title. Videogames Chronicle confirms the livestream event will spotlight updates for Code Vein II, Little Nightmares 3, and several surprise announcements (VGC on Summer Showcase reveal). The official trailer hints at a darker tone for the sequel to the anime-inspired action RPG, alongside fresh footage from the eerie puzzle-platformer Little Nightmares 3.


The showcase is scheduled on July 2, 2025 at 12:00 PM PT (8:00 PM BST) and will stream across Bandai Namco's YouTube and Twitch channels. Attendees can expect release windows for upcoming DLC, behind-the-scenes developer interviews, and community polls that could influence future updates. Whether you're hunting revenants in Code Vein or navigating shadowy corridors in Little Nightmares, this event promises a treasure trove of news for RPG and horror fans alike.
