MindsEye developer Build A Rocket Boy has released a new trailer for the game, confirmed its $59.99 price tag, and revealed exactly what players can expect from launch in terms of content. Build A Rocket Boy, led by former Rockstar North veteran Leslie Benzies, confirmed a June 10, 2025 release date for MindsEye for PS5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. Here’s the official blurb: Set in the near-futuristic city of Redrock, MindsEye delivers a tightly crafted linear story campaign. Players will step into the shoes of Jacob Diaz, a former soldier haunted by fragmented memories from his mysterious MindsEye neural implant, as he uncovers a conspiracy involving rogue AI, corporate greed, an unchecked military, and a threat so sinister that it endangers the very survival of humanity. The game’s story is brought to life with state-of-the-art visuals built on Unreal Engine 5. Perhaps more interesting is MindsEye’s PC-only game creation system, which lets players build their own experiences using all the MindsEye assets. The $59.99 price, the studio said, is “a refreshing departure from the standard $70~$80 AAA price tag.” But what, exactly, do you get for your $60? At launch, there is of course the “tightly crafted linear story campaign,” and what’s called “single-player free roam,” but there are also a number of missions: a horde mode mission called “Destruction Site Shootout,” and two combat missions (“Honor Amongst Thieves” and “Friendly Fire”). Also at launch are six races, six checkpoint races, and three drone races. If you get the premium pass, you get an extra horde mode mission and an exotic cosmetics pack. The cost of video games is one of the hottest topics in the industry, following Nintendo’s jump to $80 for Mario Kart World and Microsoft’s plan to hit $80 from this holiday season. Other video game companies are expected to follow, with the likes of Gearbox’s Borderlands 4 at the centre of a price debate following controversial comments from ****** Pitchford. All the while, some cheaper, mid-range games have found enormous success at the $50 price point, including Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. 2K’s upcoming ******: The Old Country will also be priced $50. MindsEye, it seems, occupies a space somewhere in-between. So, that's launch. But what about after launch? Build A Rocket Boy said it will deliver a “constant stream” of fresh premium content monthly, “ensuring MindsEye is a living, ever-expanding player experience.” This includes new missions, challenges, and game assets. “The continuous stream of studio-developed content, combined with the very best of the community’s own beautiful creations, means that MindsEye will continue to surprise and delight its players for decades to come,” Build A Rocket Boy added. Build A Rocket Boy also confirmed its 2025 roadmap of content. In the summer there will be community updates, new missions, in the fall new single-player modes, multiplayer, and new missions, and in the winter free roam updates and new missions. Premium pass owners get extra missions and new packs throughout. Wesley is Director, News at IGN. Find him on Twitter at @wyp100.

Originally released in September 2023, there have been plenty of occasions during the last 18 months when it looked like Payday 3 was finished for good. Steep declines in the Steam player count, some middling user reviews, and a couple of misfire updates have all suggested a premature end for Starbreeze's struggling FPS sequel. But Payday 3 fights on. The new update and Party Powder DLC have sent the game's player numbers sharply upward. There's a new heist, a new weapon, and a total transformation of the controversial armor system. GTA 6 might be on the way and realistic shooters like Escape From Tarkov and Delta Force may rule PC right now, but perhaps Payday 3 still has a chance. Read the rest of the story...
