Due to major concerns with the current COVID-19 pandemic, Bethesda and id Software have both announced they will be unable to do the necessary preparations to make an event as enormous as QuakeCon a success. It is with a heavy heart I must report that QuakeCon 2020 has been cancelled.

According to the current Epic deal, Remedy has full funding for a new game and it’s spinoff. When I read the details of this new publishing empire I wonder to myself how EA and Activision will respond. Maybe this will be the beginning of a major publisher shakeup that is long overdue.

Apple has just released an important update for iPads, iPhones and Apple TVs across the board about an hour ago. The new update, 13.4 adds a slew of security updates and new features. While the fact this is an incremental version number may think the update only includes bug fixes, it is not a small update. Portable devices can expect improvements with mememoji. The iPad’s biggest new feature will include support for mouse and trackpads.

The update will weigh in at around 870MB depending on your device. You can download it through your device’s software update feature or iTunes.

As I was preparing to download the Trials Of Mana demo, my games eventually stopped allowing me to access their Software Update functionality. It turns out a new software update for the Nintendo Switch, version 9.2.0, has been released to little fanfare.

It looks like this Software Update is required to play the latest version of Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield (version 1.1.1). You can download it right now through your Switch’s Software Update functions.
