Add as a preferred source on Google

More information about Sledgehammer Games’ Call of Duty: WWII is coming later today, May 23, in the form of a live-streamed Q&A session, with some of its creators. Broadcast on Facebook Live, you can watch the stream right here starting 3 p.m. PT/6 p.m. ET.

Announced by two of the men who’ll be bringing you the live-streamed information later today, the “Making Call of Duty” video series is going to be an ongoing project. This will be the first of many live-streams during the build-up to the game’s release later this year. You can watch it right here when it goes live.

Sledgehammer heads Glen Schofield and Michael Condrey won’t be the only two featured in it, though. We’re also told that special guests will include animation director Chris Stone and campaign director Brett Robbins (thanks Gamespot). Together, the four team members will answer questions pitched to them via their Facebook comment section.

Some of the most highly rated questions so far ask about whether the game will have destructive maps and whether it will have planes, blimps, and warships. Some want to know technical details about the graphics engine, and others are concerned about whether playable female characters will be present in the game.

As well as answering questions from fans, in the future Sledgehammer plans to host interviews with various cast members, and offer a look at new and exciting gameplay footage. Today’s stream, however, is designed to set the stage for the future, as well as cover any concerns Call of Duty fans may have about the game.

While those streams will keep people informed throughout the build-up to the game’s release, we can expect much more information when it debuts at E3 in the coming weeks. We’re told that Sledgehammer will be holding panels discussing the multiplayer and single-player campaign, as well as hosting several giveaways.

Call of Duty: WWII is set for release on Windows PCs, Xbox One, PS4, and PS4 Pro on November 3.

Epic is improving its game launcher with a long overdue speed boost and plenty of new features
Epic Games Store Launcher V2 could finally address years of user complaints

Epic Games has spent years trying to make the Epic Games Store a serious rival to Steam. It has given away free games, signed exclusivity deals, and kept major PC releases such as Borderlands 3, Assassin’s Creed Mirage, and The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria away from Valve’s storefront at launch. Those moves have helped Epic build an audience, but they have not been enough to seriously threaten Steam’s position as the default PC gaming platform.

One problem has been the launcher itself. Earlier this year, an Epic executive admitted to Eurogamer that the launcher “sucks,” and the company now appears to be working on a much bigger fix. According to slides from an Unreal Fest presentation shared by LuKaOnIndeed on X, Epic is developing Launcher V2, a ground-up rebuild of the Epic Games Store launcher that is supposed to be much faster and easier to use.

Forget RTX filters. BenQ’s gaming monitor does the pretty stuff itself
BenQ’s AI game filters are what I wanted RTX filters to be
BenQ AI Gaming Monitor Filters

I’ve spent years messing with in-game brightness sliders, GPU filters, HDR modes, and monitor presets to tinker with my experience on my favorite games. Of course, I'd always go with the original artists' intent first, but replaying these titles with new filters does freshen up the atmosphere.

This is why I was particularly impressed by BenQ’s new MOBIUZ gaming monitors. During a recent visit to BenQ’s Taiwan HQ, I got a hands-on look at the company’s latest AI-powered game filter tech, and it immediately made more sense than I expected. The company isn't just slapping on the "AI" sticker onto a gaming display. What you are getting here is custom touches to change up your experience by pulling from BenQ’s game art database that automatically tunes brightness, contrast, and color balance to match the game’s visual style. The fun part is that your performance doesn't take a hit.

Sony’s wild PSN login patent could turn the DualSense into a security gatekeeper
A newly published filing outlines controller-based sign-ins for PlayStation users, aiming to make stolen accounts harder to exploit.

Sony has filed a PSN login patent, first spotted by RespawnFirst, that would pull the DualSense controller into the sign-in process. A PlayStation console would start the request, then the controller would help confirm that the account holder is close enough to approve access.

For players, the appeal is easy to see. PSN account abuse can lead to unauthorized purchases, lost access, and attempts to resell established accounts. Sony already offers 2-step verification and passkeys, but this idea adds a hardware check to the login chain.
