Battlefield 6 Season 3 Blastpoint Official Gameplay Trailer

Today, Battlefield 6 and Battlefield REDSEC received their latest Season 3 update with Blastpoint, a packed update which features the remake of Battlefield 3’s all-time classic map Grand Bazaar, as the newly reimagined Cairo Bazaar.

This new spin on the iconic map is a tight, close-quarters combat space packed with alleyways and shops designed for deadly ambushes and intense gunfights. With updated visuals and audio, while featuring spaces that have been tweaked for higher intensity encounters, this map pays tribute to a classic while opening up combat flow in brand new ways.

Not only does Blastpoint include a reimagined map from Battlefield 3, but it also takes players back to the intensity of Battlefield 4, with the arrival of Obliteration. This classic 32v32 mode returns as a more strategic, tightly contested variant where a single mistake can cost the match.

Blastpoint also includes the launch of Battle Royale Solos, a global celebration in Battlefield, and the Battlefield 6 and REDSEC debut of the cult classic PP-19 SMG,

What’s more, players can jump into a free trial from today until June 15, where the ultimate all-out warfare experience is available for everyone. Now’s the perfect time to jump into Season 3’s reimagined takes of Cairo Bazaar and last month’s Railway to Golmud, the largest map in Battlefield 6 to date inspired by the classic Battlefield 4 location.

Razer Unveils Razer Seiren V3 Pro Microphone

Razer™, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, today announced the Razer Seiren V3 Pro, a professional-grade dynamic microphone built to deliver broadcast-ready audio without the complexity. Built for streamers at every stage, from first-time creators to seasoned broadcasters, the Seiren V3 Pro brings the tools of a professional studio to any setup, making it an ideal streaming microphone for users seeking premium audio quality. 

“Creators today are some of the most influential voices shaping culture, and how they sound matters as much as what they say,” said Addie Tan, Global Head of Lifestyle Division at Razer. “With the Seiren V3 Pro, we wanted to give creators a single mic that grows with them. Simple plug-and-play on USB-C for streamers just starting out, and studio-grade features on XLR when their craft demands more. From the 32-bit float capture to the onboard DSP, every detail is built so that the audio just sounds right, effortlessly.” 

Studio-Grade 32-Bit Float Recording 

The Seiren V3 Pro supports 32-bit float recording via Razer Synapse on Windows. This is the same format used in professional recording studios, now accessible to any creator. Unlike standard 24-bit recording, 32-bit float captures a significantly wider dynamic range, helping to reduce clipping and preserve detail even with loud or dynamic sources. The result is pristine fidelity with more headroom and less time spent in post-production. 

Broadcast-Ready Tone, Powered by Onboard DSP 

At the core of the Seiren V3 Pro is an advanced built-in audio DSP that processes sound directly on the microphone, independent of the host PC. Onboard enhancements, including an AI noise removercompressorlimiter, and expander, help deliver clean, warm, broadcast-quality tone straight from the mic, with no plugins or extra processing required. 

Dual USB Type-C and XLR Connectivity 

With dual USB Type-C and XLR connectivity, the Seiren V3 Pro adapts seamlessly to any workflow, from direct plug-and-play USB setups to professional XLR rigs with audio interfaces and mixers. A 30 mm dynamic capsule with cardioid polar pattern captures the rich, warm depth and broadcast presence that defines professional-sounding audio, covering a frequency range of 50 Hz to 16 kHz. 

Built Like Studio Gear 

Engineered to last, the Seiren V3 Pro features a zinc unibody construction acoustically tuned to resist vibrations. A built-in shock absorber and removable pop filter help reduce handling noise and plosives for polished, more consistent audio. The included vibration-dampened adjustable arm mount ensures precise, stable placement in any setup.

Precise Controls. Signature Chroma. 

physical gain dial gives creators precise level control at their fingertips, while a touch mute button with an LED indicator offers instant in-stream control over audio. The Razer Chroma™ RGB lighting ring provides real-time visual feedback for gain, mute, and peak status, with full customization via Razer Synapse to complement any streaming aesthetic.

Into the Wind Reveal Trailer

Today, indie publisher Three Friends and Swedish studio Bloom & Gloom are excited to reveal their new game Into the Wind. Revealed today at the PC Gaming Show 2026, this handcrafted cosy adventure invites players to take to the skies on their sentient motorcycle-plane companion Ermes as they explore the magical Adriatic islands of Santa Rosa.

In the Studio Ghibli-inspired world of Into the Wind, players inherit their uncle Umberto’s delivery firm as they attempt to solve the mystery of his disappearance. Along the way, they’ll make friends with the island’s colourful residents, customise their bike and home, battle rowdy air pirates, and discover the freedom of life among the clouds in a heartfelt adventure inspired by the joy of the journey itself.

Key gameplay features of Into the Wind include:

  • Motorcycle flight that enables players to take to the skies of Santa Rosa. Cargo has weight, and fuel matters. Roads, shortcuts, weather, wind, and bad landings are all part of the journey.
  • Deliver packages to locals in your uncle’s stead. Carry out deliveries all over the islands: some delicate that have to be handled with care, others heavy that make going up (or down) hill more difficult. Doing jobs earns you resources you use to upgrade Ermes, allowing you to take on more challenging deliveries and adventures.
  • Adriatic open world exploration where players can immerse themselves in the magical islands, cruise along beautiful coastal roads, and explore the many villages and all they have to offer.
  • Solve the mystery of your uncle’s disappearance – what really happened that day when Umberto tried to reach above the skies? It’s up to you and Ermes to find out!
  • Customise your character, motorcycle, and home to your heart’s content – explore the island to find new artisans with goods to bring home with you.

“Into the Wind is about the joy of the journey,” says Albert Säfström, Co-Founder and Producer at Three Friends. “There’s a wonderful, tactile satisfaction to just driving around on the bike, whether you’re on the ground or in the air. You get into this rhythm where you make a delivery, grab an upgrade, and then immediately head back out just to see how the new parts feel. It creates a deceptively addicting ‘one more delivery’ loop that makes it very hard to put the controller down.”

“It’s no secret that we are fans of Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli.” says Robin Hjelte, Co-Founder and Game Director at Bloom & Gloom. “Especially Porco Rosso struck me deeply, and I wanted to make a game about flying among freedom loving idiots in a romantic setting in the Adriatic sea. Into the Wind is our love letter to all that, and more that has been truly meaningful to us: anime, games, movies, summer evenings in the setting sun. It’s a game about momentum, flight, and great game feel, but also about just immersing yourself in the small moments of this world and its stories. We can’t wait for you to take to the skies of Santa Rosa!”

Focus Reveals Magicians: The Devil’s Deal

Focus Entertainment Publishing and developer Uppercut Games are thrilled to announce Magicians: The Devil’s Deal, planned for release in 2027 on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox Game Pass. In this new narrative-driven FPS, you’ll step into the shoes of Jacob, a gifted stage magician drawn into a nightmarish descent through Theatreland, a distorted reflection of Victorian London ruled by the powerful Masters. Driven forward by rage and supernatural tricks, Jacob must confront these enigmatic figures and claim their power as he journeys deeper into a world shaped by ambition and deception. A dark tale of illusion and revenge awaits in Magicians: The Devil’s Deal!

  Magic is more than spectacle. It’s power.

Magicians: The Devil’s Deal is a first-person action game built around a dark and gripping journey where illusions become deadly weapons and power always comes at a cost.

Betrayed by his former rivals, the Masters, Jacob is cast into Hell. While his fate of eternal torture and despair seems sealed, the Devil himself enters the scene and offers him a tempting deal: to transform his stage magic into supernatural abilities. Now, bound by this devilish pact, Jacob ventures through Theatreland, defeating each Master to claim new powers and get his revenge.

In Magicians: The Devil’s Deal, players can combine skills, adapt their approach, and master increasingly dangerous encounters across the ever-shifting Realms of Theatreland. But in this underworld ruled by hubris and temptation, every step forward only leads deeper into darkness…

Become the ultimate trickster in a new adventure from Uppercut Games

An original new IP from the talented industry veterans at Australian studio Uppercut Games, Magicians: The Devil’s Deal delivers a distinct blend of exploration, atmospheric worldbuilding, and high-stakes confrontations. The game marks the studio’s first collaboration with Focus Entertainment.

“We are thrilled to collaborate with the talented teams at Uppercut Games, who are doing an excellent job executing the vision that first attracted us to Magicians: The Devil’s Deal,” said Vincent Chataignier, Deputy Chief Executive Officer at Focus Entertainment. “Its unique universe allows for original gameplay experiences – something that has always been central to Focus’ editorial DNA. This project marks an important step for us, both as a new partnership and as an opportunity to bring a unique creative vision and player experience to life. We’re excited to finally share this game with the world and look forward to seeing players discover it.”

“We fell in love with the world of stage magic through 1890s posters – a rich, flamboyant vision filled with tricks, demons, and colourful characters,” said Ed Orman, Co-Founder and Director at Uppercut Games. “As a studio, we strive to create deep experiences players can get lost in through exploration and storytelling. Magicians: The Devil’s Deal brings those passions together. With Focus Entertainment, we’re creating a world of spectacular characters, stage-magic powers, and a story shaped by deception and betrayal. We can’t wait for players to experience its twists and turns.”
