The Nintendo Switch 2 is twice the console as the original Switch, not just in size but in hardware specifications as well. We finally have a full idea of what’s going on under the hood of the $450 handheld set to launch on June 5. The long and short of it is that the Switch […]
A New GTA VI Trailer Is Here, but We Still Don’t Know if the Game Is Coming to Switch 2
Grand Theft Auto VI won’t arrive in 2025, but as a consolation prize, Rockstar Games dropped a video featuring a few snippets of gameplay for what’s still one of the most anticipated games set to arrive next year.
