Sony confirmed on July 1, 2026, through its official PlayStation Blog that physical disc production for new games on PlayStation consoles will stop in January 2028. After that date, every new release arrives only as a digital version through the PlayStation Store or as codes available at retailers. Games already released or scheduled to launch before the cutoff keep their disc editions exactly as planned, with no changes to existing libraries or upcoming physical stock.
Weave Robotics introduced Isaac 1 this week as a wheeled machine built from the start for real homes rather than labs or factories. It rolls through rooms on its own power, reaches for items with a pair of arms, and focuses on jobs that repeat every day, such as gathering stray clothes or straightening spaces after daily life has scattered them around.
Mike Shake has spent years exploring the edges of what simple materials can do when pushed hard. His latest project takes compressed air and turns it into a directed force that moves tables, destroys targets, and leaves visible clouds in its wake. The device is not a gun in the usual sense. It contains no powder or projectile. Everything comes from the sudden release of air stored at extreme pressure inside a sturdy tank.
A hypercar that carries real fired porcelain on its fuel cap, oil cap, badges, and several interior controls sounds like an unusual experiment. Bugatti made it real with the W16 Mistral Blanc Éternel, a single custom commission built through its Sur Mesure program. This roadster serves as the final road-going expression of the long-running W16 engine before the brand moves on.
Early in 2013 a small Utah company walked into CES with something that looked more like abstract art than a gaming machine. The Xi3 Piston sat there as a compact metal cube, roughly four inches on each side, with indented sides and a front grille that gave it a distinctive industrial look. Valve had invested in the company and even displayed the device in its own booth. For a brief moment it seemed like this odd little box might become the foundation for a new kind of living-room gaming experience built around Steam.
