Metroid Dread is being developed by MercuryStream, the studio behind Metroid: Samus Returns for Nintendo 3DS.

The first Halo Infinite technical preview could come as soon as this weekend, and it's going to focus squarely on bot-centric multiplayer modes. Developer 343 Industries laid out its plans for the first public test of Halo Infinite in an extensive blog post , explaining that it's still a little too early to outright confirm when the test will happen.

GTA 5 will leave Xbox Game Pass soon
GTA 5 is leaving Xbox Game Pass soon, marking the end of its second tour on Microsoft's subscription service for free games. Neither Microsoft nor Rockstar have made an official announcement about when GTA 5 will leave Xbox Game Pass, but it now appears in the "Leaving soon" collection for Game Pass. All the games in that section will exit the Xbox Game Pass library within the next two weeks, so you can expect it to depart sometime in early August at the latest. GTA 5 Premium Edition is currently discounted to $14.99 (it's normally $29.99) as part of the Xbox Summer Sale , so if you want to keep playing even after it leaves Game Pass, now would be a good time to pick it up. Your progress will be waiting for you the next time you're ready to play, whether you buy GTA 5 permanently or hold out to see if it comes to Game Pass a third time. GTA 5's current time in the Game Pass sun began on April 8 , meaning it will have stuck around for about 4 months before it rides its …
