Apple has released an important update for everything they make earlier today, including iPhones, iPads, and the Mac. The new update, 26.3, includes some major bug fixes and improvements people have been clamoring for since the last minor release.
We expect some improvements will be coming to Apple Intelligence, as Apple plans to migrate to the Google Gemini model. However, that isn’t expected to transition until 26.4 releases later this year.
Depending on your device, and if you have Apple Intelligence on it, your update could weigh between 3.5-12.6GB. You will also need this update for the Apple TV, Apple Watch, and Vision Pro.

Japan Travel Tips – Staying at the Exclusive Dragon Quest Island Hotel February 3, 2026

Happy Tuesday! We’re bringing back Japan Travel Tips, where we highlight some of the best independently created video resources for gamers interested in visiting the Land of the Rising Sun! To celebrate the early release of Dragon Quest VII Reimagined, we decided it would be perfect to highlight a breakout content creator on YouTube focused on providing exclusive Dragon Quest content for the English-speaking side of the world!
YouTube Channel Petchy has recently exploded onto the Dragon Quest scene with some incredible videos on parts of the history of DQ that even I hadn’t heard about. His content has been able to bridge the western to eastern gap to provide non-Japanese living DQ fans the chance to see what we’ve been missing. A few weeks ago he published his magnum opus. We’ve previously posted about Dragon Quest Island, an immersive IRL gaming experience located at Awaji Island. However, what we didn’t know was that the resort actually has its own themed hotel in the form of the Grand Chariot, and it offers an exclusive Dragon Quest Hotel Suite for would-be adventurers to use.
What follows is without a doubt one of the most detailed hotel reviews I have ever watched in my thirty years of consuming internet content. If you’re a Dragon Quest fan, a fan of hotel reviews, or are considering a trip to Japan, you need to watch this video. Enjoy!
Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined is out now (for Digital Deluxe Edition purchases) on Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PC, Xbox Series X/S and PS5.
