During PlayStation’s September 2024 State of Play presentation, Sony announced that Lego Horizon Adventures will launch on November 14 for PC, PS5, and Nintendo Switch.

Lego Horizon Adventure was first revealed at Summer Game Fest 2024. While there were no doubts that it would be released for PlayStation, the simultaneous PC launch was welcomed while the Switch version was a complete surprise. However, this move makes sense given this is a much lighthearted take on the series that revolves around dangerous robotic dinosaurs and the apocalypse.

Those who order it will receive a blue roller coaster customization as well as various outfits for Aloy, including the Shadow Stalwart, “Alloy” Aloy, and Banuk Armor outfits. There are also Ratchet, Rivet, and Sackboy outfits for her too. Preorders start on October 3, and those who preorder any version will get the Shield-Weaver outfit that can be unlocked in-game.

This will be the first time the Horizon series will appear on a Nintendo platform, and it’ll help broaden its appeal to younger audiences. Instead of being a purely single-player game, Lego Horizon Adventures will also support two-player couch and online co-op, which is a common feature found in other Lego games.

Lego Horizon Adventures isn’t the only Horizon game releasing this year. On October 31, Horizon Zero Dawn is getting remastered courtesy of developer Nixxes for PS5 and PC. Those who have the original version can upgrade to the new one for $10. That’s two Horizon games within one week of each other, so fans of the series are eating well.

AI and vibe coding have unleashed a flood of new games, but not necessarily better ones
181,000 mobile games were launched in six months but big publishers still dominate.

If your app store feels packed with new games lately, AI is the reason behind it. Research company ATTN Economy found that 181,000 mobile games launched in the six months to May 2026, up 118% on iOS and 73% on Android compared to the same period last year.

Much of that surge comes down to vibe-coding, a growing trend where people with little to no programming knowledge can use AI tools to build and ship games without actually coding. The barrier to entry has never been lower, but the rewards are still going to the same people they always have.

The no-disc release for GTA 6 could be hiding a deeper problem and that makes me a bit anxious
GTA 6 may launch without a real disc because Rockstar could still be finishing the game
Grand Theft Auto VI GTA 6 Featured

As a gamer and a games collector, it is frustrating that GTA 6, arguably the most anticipated game of all time, is not getting a proper disc release at launch. The boxed copy will reportedly contain only a download code, which defeats much of the point of buying physical in the first place.

It also does not help that Rockstar has already annoyed some fans by locking certain in-game shops, vehicles, storage locations, and other bonuses behind the more expensive Ultimate Edition. For a game as massive as GTA 6, both decisions feel like the kind of moves players were hoping Rockstar would avoid.

While he never explicitly mentioned a handheld, the comments have once again fueled speculation that Sony is preparing to return to the portable gaming space with the PS6 generation.

Sony finally said what everyone was thinking
