Intel is all set to initiate production for its 20A (2nm process) next year, as revealed in an interview (via Nikkei) by the company's Senior Vice President.
The competition in the semiconductor industry is heating up with the likes of TSMC and Samsung Foundry, announcing their plans to commence 2-nanometer production somewhere in 2024. However, Intel Foundry has reportedly joined the bandwagon, as the firm reveals plans for cutting-edge semiconductor production. Intel's Senior VP, Sanjay Natarajan, has disclosed the fact that the company will "lead the way in miniaturization" through its 20A process, which will see production next year.
Let's take a quick recap on Intel's 20A node, which is expected to revolutionize both the portfolio of IFS and the semiconductor industry. The 20A node is expected to feature brand new RibbonFET transistors that will replace the existing FinFET architecture and deliver new interconnect innovations, one known as PowerVia. Arrow Lake will be among the biggest product family that makes use of the 20A process node and we can also expect a few 3rd party clients leveraging this node through IFS.
The company expects to achieve manufacturing readiness for 20A within the first half of 2024 as planned with Arrow Lake being the lead product which is expected to launch in the second half of 2024. During SemiCon Japan, Intel Vice President John Guzek, also confirmed that the development line of the Glass Substrate technology for next-gen chips will become operational in 2025 so we can expect chips utilizing the new solution in the second half of this decade.
Intel Foundry, particularly with its semiconductor, hasn't seen much success in terms of industry adoption in recent times however, things look to change, especially with how the markets are evolving with the influx of AI. An interesting opportunity to unfold is the potential inclusion of Intel Foundry in Team Green's ecosystem of foundry partners since NVIDIA's CFO has hinted towards the fact that the company still has a place for a foundry.
With the initiation of 20A (2nm) production in 2024, foundries are competing with each other to get a hold of orders from key players in the industry. With TSMC and Samsung Foundry already announcing plans on next-gen semiconductors, the inclusion of Intel Foundry in the list means that the upcoming semiconductor race will indeed depend on yield rates, overall utilization costs, and the supply of cutting-edge semiconductor chips.

While 2022 ended with Konami announcing several new projects for Silent Hill, 2023 passed without much muster (not counting the Silent Hill: Ascension TV series). That could change in 2024, based on a statement to Famitsu by series lead producer Motoi Okamoto.
In an interview with a Japanese educational television program and originally reported in English by Japanese creator Genki , Naoki Yoshida explained that he believes cloud gaming could end “console wars” and make games accessible to all players. He hopes that players don’t need to worry about having specific pieces of gaming hardware like consoles in order to play what they’d like.
I have really been looking forward to Retro-Bit’s NES reissue of 1991’s Hammerin’ Harry. However, in retrospect, this is partially due to me getting it confused with Don Doko Don, a 1989 arcade game in Taito’s single-screen format. If I knew what I was thinking about, I’d be even more excited.
The modernized and remade PC version of tactical shoot 'em up R-Type Tactics 1 and 2 is clearly not coming this year as previously listed. Developer Granzella has announced that R-Type Tactics I — II Cosmos is in fact coming in fall 2024, instead, during a recent livestream.
It's almost the end of 2023, which means developers across Japan with upcoming games are releasing end-of-year statements to provide updates on their myriad of projects. Konami is no exception, a publisher which is currently working on a bunch of Silent Hill titles, including the highly-anticipated remake of Silent Hill 2.
Intel's CEO has expressed confidence in its 18A process, claiming that it competes favorably with TSMC's 2nm node while also being delivered earlier.
Blame it on the unprecedented volume of high-profile new games of 2023, but I've somehow managed to let this absolutely gorgeous, stop motion-animated Soulslike Metroidvania themed around Japanese folklore slip right through my radar.
Intel has reaffirmed that its next-gen Arc Xe2 "Battlemage" discrete GPUs are heading for launch in the coming year.
Netflix has announced plans for a new One Piece anime series after the huge success of its live-action adaptation. Called The One Piece, the new adaptation of Eiichiro Oda’s beloved manga will be produced by WIT Studio, who are behind shows like SPY x FAMILY and Attack on Titan.
SEGA says it hopes to display an “edginess and rebellious mindset” when it revives five classic franchises in the near-future. The legendary Japanese publisher confirmed at The Game Awards that it’s working on new versions of Jet Set Radio, Crazy Taxi, Golden Axe, Shinobi, and Streets of Rage – an effort enabled by the ongoing success and growth of the Yakuza, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Persona franchises.
Researchers have developed a new artificial intelligence (AI) model that can predict the risk of long-term visual impairment in patients with high myopia, one of the top three causes of irreversible blindness in many regions of the world.
