Summary
Preorders for the November 19 release of Grand Theft Auto 6 are officially live, and retailers are already warning that high demand will likely outstrip physical supply—though reports suggest these "physical" copies may simply be digital codes in a box. Meanwhile, Microsoft has announced another price hike for its hardware, with the Series S rising to $500 and the Series X reaching $800. In industry news, Bungie is facing a second major blow as the studio lets go of nearly 300 staff members, impacting both the core Destiny 2 team and the developers working on the upcoming extraction shooter Marathon. We break down these major shifts and what they mean for the future of these iconic franchises.
