Rainbow Six Siege Takes Offensive Approach To Cheaters By Giving Them Input Lag
Ubisoft has been cracking down on spoofers in Rainbow Six Siege, sentencing them all to input lag. The measure is aimed at players using a mouse and keyboard on console servers, effectively securing a substantial advantage against people using controllers. “We’ve put out the cheese, now it’s time to catch some mice,” the company said on Twitter. “Check out Rainbow 6 Siege’s newest anti-cheat measure, Mousetrap, coming in Year 8, Season 1.2.”
Sonic Frontiers Director Says The Series Has “Seen The Light” And Will Be “On Top” Again

This of course comes in reference to some newly published sales figures, greatly in excess of expectations. “Together with the fans, we have taken the first step towards the day we will be on top once again,” Kishimoto remarked on Twitter. “We’ve seen the light for a triple-A rated Sonic game!”

Halo Infinite players can rejoice because a bunch of leaked images confirm that campaign AI will be coming to Forge at some point in the very near future. “Yesterday, I confirmed campaign AI is being added to Halo Infinite Forge. But I didn’t have an image of campaign AI spawned in Forge. Until now,” a respected member of the Halo Infinite community, Rebs Gaming, said on Twitter. “I’m excited to reveal our first image of campaign AI in Halo Infinite Forge!”
CMA Confirms Nintendo Switch Online Will Be Available On Another Device
The regulator in the UK known as the Competition and Markets Authority seems to be suggesting that Nintendo Switch Online will eventually be available on at least one other device. “Nintendo Switch Online has been excluded from our shares as Nintendo’s cloud gaming service is very limited,” the organization explained in a document. “Nintendo’s cloud gaming service is only available on the Nintendo Switch device and [REDACTED].” What platform exactly this refers to remains to be seen.
Tears Of The Kingdom Artbook Reportedly Leaked
Someone apparently got their hands on the artbook from the Collector’s Edition of the upcoming and highly anticipated Tears of the Kingdom, leaking some pictures on Reddit. This features a variety of images that appear to be concept art and promotional materials, but also a bunch of drawings and sketches depicting different characters, weapons, and landscapes in addition to detailed renderings of some key scenes and environments. Needless to say, if you’re at all worried about spoilers, maybe give this one a pass.
