PlayStation announces FlexStrike Wireless fight stick for Evo 2025. PlayStation has officially revealed its first ever wireless fight stick—named the FlexStrike Wireless—set to debut on the Evo 2025 main stage. Featuring a sleek, modular design with swappable joystick and button layouts, the FlexStrike aims to deliver tournament‑grade precision without the hassle of cables. You can watch the full Official Features Trailer on YouTube to see the stick in action, and catch PlayStation's own announcement on X for initial reactions and specs.
How to configure the FlexStrike Wireless for 2026 release. Scheduled for release in early 2026, the FlexStrike Wireless will support PS5, PS4, and PC via Bluetooth or 2.4 GHz dongle. Players can download firmware updates and customize button mappings through a companion app—simply head to your console's accessory settings, select "FlexStrike Wireless", and follow on‑screen prompts to install the latest drivers. With compatibility confirmed for all major fighting titles at Evo, including Mortal Kombat 1 and Street Fighter 6, this stick might just redefine plug‑and‑play for high‑level competition.

WUCHANG's Patch 1.4 irons out performance issues on all platforms. After launch jitters left some players frustrated by frame drops and input lag, WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers has rolled out a comprehensive set of patches—culminating in Patch 1.4 across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The launch trailer may have showcased those vivid, fast‑paced duels, but it's the recent updates that will keep you fighting smoothly.
Where to download the latest WUCHANG updates. You can grab Patch 1.4 by checking your console's game update menu or restarting Steam to trigger automatic downloads. The update adds a new low latency mode, broad GPU optimizations for AMD and NVIDIA cards, and dozens of stability fixes aimed at reducing crashes during boss battles. According to the playWUCHANG announcement on X, these tweaks should cut loading times by up to 30 percent and eliminate rare audio stutters—ensuring that every parry and Featherblade strike feels as responsive as intended.
Sony files lawsuit against Tencent over Light of Motiram's similarity to Horizon. In a high‑stakes legal move, Sony has taken Tencent to court in California, alleging that the recently revealed Light of Motiram is a "blatant copy" of its acclaimed Horizon franchise. First announced in November 2024, Light of Motiram's heroine design, open‑world mechanics, and even marketing art (seen in the IGN reveal trailer) bear a striking resemblance to Horizon Forbidden West—you can compare them side‑by‑side with the original announcement trailer for Horizon Forbidden West.
What's at stake in Sony's Horizon lawsuit. Filed last week in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, Sony's complaint argues that Tencent's new title mimics everything from robotic creature encounters to protagonist attire, infringing on trade dress and copyright. While Light of Motiram has not yet hit shelves, the suit seeks to block its launch and recover damages. I'll be keeping an eye on court filings and will report back as details emerge—but in the meantime, fans of Aloy and her mechanical beasts can revisit the original adventures on PS4, PS5, or PC.
