A former Rockstar developer has said the company canceled a standalone Grand Theft Auto 5 story DLC because GTA Online emerged as a “cash cow" soon after launch. Joe Robino, who was a senior camera artist and virtual cinematographer working at Rockstar’s New York office from 2010 to 2016, spoke to the SanInPlay YouTube channel about why this much-rumored GTA 5 story DLC fell by the wayside after GTA 5 came out in September 2013. “A lot of the team went to do Red ***** Redemption 2 right away and I took on this other project that was a standalone DLC for GTA that never came out and it was kick ****,” Robino revealed. “That was my thing. I was one of the main editors, camera artists, and on-stage stuff. We split our teams into two. I stayed on GTA Online and then this DLC, which Steven Ogg [the actor who played Trevor Philips] was a very important part of. “And then some of the team overlapped and went to RDR2 early on, and then we just kind of did this [flipped motion], because when that game got shelved, we spent so much money… a lot of that stuff though did end up making it I believe into later iterations of GTA Online, I think. So it’s not like they wasted it. “It was really really good. But when GTA Online came out it was so much of a cash cow and people were loving it so much that it was hard to make an argument that a standalone DLC would outcompete that. I think looking back now you could probably do both. But that was a business decision they made. I was a little upset about that. “That actually was a lot of the reason for me being a little sour at that time. Because I was like yo, WTF guys? This s**t’s awesome. Let’s keep going. Let’s finish this s**t.” IGN has asked Rockstar for comment. I was like yo, WTF guys? This *****’s awesome. Let’s keep going. Let’s finish this s**t. Fans have had snippets of information about GTA 5’s fabled story DLC over the years. Indeed, Steven Ogg has spoken about it and what it would have involved. “Trevor was going to be undercover, he was working with the feds,” Ogg has said. “We did ****** some of that stuff with ‘James Bond Trevor’, where he’s still kind of a f**k-up, but he’s doing his best. Then it just disappeared and they never did it, they never followed up on it.” GTA dataminers have also discovered a reference to Trevor with a jetpack, which suggests story mode DLC was repurposed into GTA Online, as Robino says. In 2018, Rockstar finally unveiled GTA Online's Doomsday Heist missions alongside the Thruster, a jetpack that's still exclusive to the multiplayer mode to this day. Rockstar is now focused on getting GTA 6 ready for its fall 2025 release window. There are a number of questions fans have of Rockstar’s plans, including whether GTA 6 will, unlike GTA 5, receive story DLC. And what happens to the current version of GTA Online when GTA 6 inevitably introduces its own version? Meanwhile, in the same interview, Robino discussed the well-documented crunch and secrecy Rockstar staff endured while working on GTA 5 and Red ***** Redemption 2. “We got probably halfway through it [the GTA5 story DLC], and we put a pause on it,” he said. “I was also doing GTA Online at that time, and I was also doing RDR2. We all were. We worked a lot, man. For six or seven years, I was working almost 365 days a year with our team.” For years, Rockstar had a notorious reputation within the video game industry for brutal crunch in the making of Grand Theft Auto and Red ***** games. However, following the release of Red ***** Redemption 2 in 2018 and the shocking stories about the human cost of its development, media reports suggested changes were made to the company’s culture to avoid the same thing happening during the development of GTA 6.

AMD FSR 3.1 has been added to Spider-Man: Remastered and four other PlayStation titles, which in itself seems like quite tame news, but for Steam Deck owners, it's incredibly exciting. Not only does the addition of this feature mean the games run better on higher graphical settings, but it could see the Steam Deck remain relevant for far longer than we imagined. As the best handheld gaming PC, the Steam Deck is often used as the measuring stick for all other devices. The latest firmware update, SteamOS 3.6, brings improved support for AMD FSR 3.1, which has big implications for the Steam Deck's life cycle. Read the rest of the story...

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree fails to live up to one of its earliest promises. The DLC is, in every sense of the word, expansive. It builds on the lore of Elden Ring's most important characters and minor figures alike, creating a whole new chapter to the story. While it's not totally central to the Elden Ring story, it contains a multitude of important reveals and essential context that completely redefines much of the base game. In that way, it's everything it was cracked up to be. View the full article
If you want to exit Zenless Zone Zero without the risk of losing your saved data in the process, then it’s best to learn where the exit is as soon as possible. Similar to exiting Elden Ring or Dark Souls, ZZZ‘s log-out option is hidden in the depths of the menu screen. If you’re like me, scrambling for the exit when a player invades my world in Dark Souls, you may not reach the exit button in time. Unlike Souls games, however, ZZZ doesn’t throw anything scary your way to make a swift exit seem the only appropriate option. But, you likely want to exit the game properly rather than closing the game via desktop or mobile. View the full article
Warning, spoilers for Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree lie ahead.

Yep, it turns out the extra bit of chatter from St Trina that Elden Ring sleuths found and restored last week isn't the only thing kicking around in the DLC's files cut content wise, there's more stuff that Miyazaki and co ended up electing not to have its characters vocalise.

Capcom’s co-op dinosaur mech game Exoprimal will not receive any new content, the company has announced just a year after the game came out. The shooter launched in July 2023 as a brand new intellectual property from Capcom and an attempt to create a successful live service. Despite various updates and crossovers with other Capcom franchises, such as Street Fighter, that attempt has not been as successful as hoped. According to SteamDB, Exoprimal had a 24-hour peak concurrent player count of just 66 on Valve's platform, with only 41 concurrent players at the time of this article's publication. Capcom said that with the release of Title Update 4, all planned Exoprimal seasonal content has been finished. After Season 4, which concludes on July 11, Season 1 will return, marking the beginning of a recycling of already released content. From there, a new season will begin on the first of each month. In addition, Season Passes 1 to 3 will be available for ***** again. “This will allow players to obtain items from all seasons,” Capcom explained. Essentially, Exoprimal will be put on a Season 1 to 4 cycle going forward. Capcom insisted all online services will continue to be available, so Exoprimal will remain available to play despite the company essentially walking away from the game. All gameplay modes will remain available to play, including the main Dino Survival mode, as well as endgame content such as Savage Gauntlet and Time Loop Rebellion. If you're playing alone or match with only a few other players, Bots will still be added “so that you can fully enjoy the Hammerheads' story and reach the ending,” Capcom added. “The Exoprimal team appreciates your interest and support, and we hope to see you in the wargame!” Exoprimal’s announcement back in 2022 was seen as a ****** knell for a potential Dino Crisis revival, but Capcom teased fans recently when it tweeted out a solitary image to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the much-loved dinosaur survival horror game. In August last year, Capcom admitted to “challenges” given Exoprimal is a new IP, but pointed to the fact it had more than one million players as a “positive." “Given that this game is an all-new IP, the situation is not without its challenges; however, we view the fact that the game has amassed over one million players to be positive,” Capcom said at the time. “Going forward, we will continue to release content for the game while monitoring player behavior with an eye toward expanding sales.” Capcom insisted it expected Exoprimal would be a profitable project overall (it launched straight into Game Pass). Exoprimal does not currently feature on Capcom’s list of platinum-selling titles, which means it has sold less than one million copies. IGN’s Exoprimal review returned an 8/10. “Exoprimal's unique take on the hero shooter genre is a bold one – with its best modes and surprises hidden deep within its goofy sci-fi story – but a variety of fun exosuits, the simple appeal of tearing through thousands of dinos, and great multiplayer design make that grind an easy one to recommend sticking with,” we said.
