Later this year, PlayStation 4 owners will be able to head into a digital version of Merry Ol’ England during the 19th century and explore the soot-covered glory that was London. Of course, it won’t be so much “merry” as it is bloody and horrifying. And filled with steampunk things, since it’s an alternate reality London. Six on one hand, half a dozen on the other.

When The Order: 1886 debuts as a PlayStation 4 exclusive later this year, gamers will have a chance to step back in time to an alternate Victorian-era London, where a powerful society known as The Order is at the vanguard of an ancient war against halfbreed creatures that want to do bad, rated-M things to humanity. For a closer look at the game, check out our recent hands-off preview, which outlines what to expect.

Sony is helping bury physical games, and preservation is being left to clean up the mess
A reported 2028 cutoff for PS5 discs gives the industry a deadline it still doesn’t seem ready to handle.

Sony’s reported plan to stop producing PS5 discs in 2028 would push PlayStation deeper into a digital-first future, where access depends on licenses, storefront policy, and platform support lasting longer than companies usually promise.

That’s tidy for Sony and ugly for game preservation. Physical media was never a perfect archive, but removing it before a serious replacement exists turns the survival of old games into someone else’s emergency. It also raises questions about long-term ownership, resale rights, and whether players can truly rely on purchases to remain accessible decades later.

In this economy, Cinder City is asking for 64GB RAM. The rest of its PC specs are even weirder. [Update]
Remember when 16GB RAM was enough?

Update: After our story went live, the team behind Cinder City reached out to clarify that the 64GB RAM recommendation was simply a mistake. The Steam page has since been updated to recommend 32GB of RAM instead. As also shared on Steam, the team noted that the current specs are based on an in-development build, and the final system requirements at launch could end up being lower than what's currently listed. So, no, you probably don't need to start shopping for another 32GB RAM kit just yet. The original story is as follows.

For years, PC gamers have joked that game developers treat hardware requirements like a shopping list. Cinder City might have just taken that joke a little too seriously. The game's newly listed recommended PC specs ask for a whopping 64GB of RAM. That's a figure that's raising eyebrows because almost everything else on the list looks surprisingly… normal.
