New PS5 Update Is Out Now, Actually Does A Lot For Once https://ift.tt/86FBO5j A fresh firmware update is now available for PS5 console owners, and this time, it does a whole lot more than just improve system stability. While Version 26.02-13.00.00 is headlined by an enhanced version of PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR), all PS5 console models will also be upgraded with several new features.

Mario Kart World And DK Bananza Are Genre- And Franchise-Defining, Nintendo Says https://ift.tt/1ofgvMX

Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza are genre- and franchise-defining moments in each of their series, according to Nintendo's Bill Trinen. He told GameSpot in a recent interview that these games were purposefully designed to show off what the Switch 2 is capable of, and they are marquee titles in helping to promote the console.

"Hopefully people are also seeing that with games like Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bonanza, these are sort of genre-defining or franchise-defining moments for each of these games that really take advantage of the uniqueness of the Nintendo Switch 2 hardware," he said. "And for me, they really feel like, whether you are a Nintendo fan or a video game fan or even a video game developer who makes your own games, each of those games to me feels like something that you really can't miss. These are must-play games for you to experience what Nintendo is doing next."

Mario Kart World represents a "philosophical" change to the Mario Kart formula, Trinen added, in part because the courses in the game are interconnected. Whereas previous Mario Kart games had discrete courses, Mario Kart world allows players, in certain modes, to go offroad and drive across the continent of courses, zipping from one course to the next. Mario Kart World also supports up to 24 players on a given track, which is the most for the series. Nintendo will showcase Mario Kart World during a dedicated Nintendo Direct on April 17, which is when Nintendo claims it will demonstrate why the game costs $80.
