Since its debut in 1997, the Grand Theft Auto (GTA) series has become one of the world's most popular game franchises, with a player base of millions. It offers a unique open-world fast-paced gameplay that is filled with action, adventure, exploration, as well as RPG elements. While there have been 7 installments in the Grand Theft Auto series so far, none have captured the world's attention like the latest entry, GTA 5, which was released over a decade ago in 2013. Although it still remains ever-popular, players have long been asking Rockstar Games about Grand Theft Auto 6 or GTA 6.

Advertising games in general aren’t super common anymore, usually relegated to browser or mobile platforms.

It's fair to say that Starfield is Bethesda's most important game release in years, probably the biggest thing it's done since rejuvenating the Fallout series back in 2008. And Bethesda head of publishing Pete Hines recently made it clear that the studio is taking the job of bringing that game to life seriously—and that he'll brook no suggestion that the studio is half-assing any part of it.

Even the most avid fan can’t deny that Overwatch 2 is in an odd place right now. Whether you’re happy with the gameplay or not, optics surrounding the title are at an all-time low. At the time of writing, Overwatch 2 is the lowest-rated game on Steam, an unthinkable achievement for such a well-known franchise. It appears that the higher-ups at Blizzard have noticed, and their response? Well, it’s something.
