The source comes first.

A confident headline is not a substitute for evidence. Every story links to its sources and distinguishes an official announcement from attributed reporting and our own analysis.

Confirmed, Reported, Analysis

  • Confirmed: a statement or change documented by the relevant developer, publisher or platform. Announced plans can still change.
  • Reported: information attributed to another outlet or sources, with the limits of that reporting explained.
  • Analysis: our interpretation, kept separate from the underlying facts.

Dates and corrections

We distinguish the date of a source from the date of our own article and identify the time zone for release times. A page being updated does not, by itself, mean a patch was released that day. Material corrections should be recorded in the affected story.

Original work and honest limits

We add context and analysis rather than republishing other outlets’ articles. We do not claim hands-on testing, performance results or independent confirmation that we have not established. AI-assisted drafting does not remove the need to check facts, sources, rights and the finished piece.

Images and video

Official promotional assets and archival material are credited. Illustrative footage is not presented as a capture of an unreleased platform or a current patch build. Publisher material is subject to its owners’ rights.
