NASA’s STEREO-A spacecraft comes calling on Earth - after 17 years!

There has been no end to the Xbox drama in relation to Baldur’s Gate 3. With the platform getting cold-shouldered hard and its release date being sent into limbo long before the game was released on PC and PS5. It would appear gamers on Microsoft’s bulky box have received some hope earlier than expected. 

India has achieved a significant milestone in space and technology, successfully landing the Chandrayaan-3 lander and rover on the Moon's South Pole. Now, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is embarking on a new venture, this time directed towards the Sun. ISRO is preparing to launch its maiden space-based solar observatory spacecraft, known as the Aditya L1 mission. This ambitious project aims to uncover insights into various solar activities and their impact on space weather, enhancing our understanding of the Sun's behavior.

Though Focus Entertainment dropped some new gameplay for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 at Gamescom 2023, there’s more to come. The publisher confirmed extended gameplay presentations for the upcoming hack-and-slash third-person shooter and DON’T NOD’s Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden on August 30th at 9 AM PDT/12 PM EDT.

Baldur's Gate III will be coming to Xbox consoles this year after all. In a tweet, Larian Studios CEO Swen Vincke confirmed that he and Xbox head Phil Spencer had found a solution to bring the critically acclaimed CRPG to Microsoft's current-gen consoles. There's one catch though: the game won't support split-screen co-op on the less-expensive Xbox Series S — a feature the developer has been struggling to enable for months now, thanks to the technical limitations of the console. In fact, to maintain parity of features between Baldur's Gate 3 on the Xbox Series S and X, Microsoft even sent engineers from their side to help out Larian.

Larian founder and CEO Swen Vincke has shared an update on its massive RPG Baldur’s Gate 3 coming to Xbox. While Baldur’s Gate 3 is now looking set to debut on Xbox Series consoles this year, it won’t have split-screen co-op for the Series S version.

Baldur's Gate 3 has been in the wild on PC for a few weeks now, with the game's PlayStation launch coming in a matter of days. Unfortunately, there's still no release date for the game's planned Xbox launch, and it's because developer Larian Studios has been struggling to get the game's spilt-screen coop mode working properly on Xbox Series S. Xbox makes it clear that it wants feature parity on both of its consoles, which meant that Larian couldn't ship the game on Series X without getting split screen sorted out on Series S first.

Baldur's Gate III is arguably the game of the summer, and it isn't even out on consoles yet. Developer Larian Studios has taken a "it'll be out when it's ready" approach to releasing the game on various platforms. After becoming an instant hit on Windows when it came out of early access earlier this month, Baldur's Gate III will land on PlayStation 5 and macOS on September 6th. The exact Xbox release date is still unclear, but Larian has finally confirmed the massive RPG will come to Microsoft's consoles later this year.

Baldur’s Gate 3 will be coming to Xbox this year, despite fears by developer Larian that it would have to be pushed back to 2024.

«We've found a solution,» Larian says.
