Can a fresh *Forza Horizon* rival provide some of the lighthearted excitement that might have been absent in the most recent installment?

## *Fallout 76* is set to look better on Xbox Series X than PS5
Bethesda revealed the long-awaited next-gen upgrade for the survival MMO on Tuesday, with specifications including up to 4K resolution on Xbox Series X but limited to 1440p on PS5 and PS5 Pro. Strange! No update yet on when cross-play is happening.
“Available to all who own *Fallout 76*,” Bethesda stated today. “You can download the Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 test versions from the Xbox and PlayStation Stores. Following the testing phase, we plan to release the update later this summer!”
## *Resident Evil* may head to Japan in the future
“I believe every Japanese Resident Evil fan has definitely imagined a Japan setting, and I’ve pondered it myself,” *Resident Evil Requiem* producer Masato Kumazawa shared in an interview with *Futaman*. “Since the series is largely developed by a team in Japan, I think everyone involved has probably considered it. Although Japan hasn’t served as a setting for the games yet, I think it could happen sometime down the line.”
## A new open world racing game has emerged
It’s titled *Clutch* and marks the first project from former *Forza Horizon* creative director Mike Brown. The game features a story penned by *Skins* co-creator Jamie Brittain and revolves around two siblings vying for success in a prestigious racing circuit and a group of car enthusiasts known as the Midnight Club. It’s being developed in Unreal Engine 5 with an emphasis on highlighting the distinctive features of each vehicle.
## *Hell Let Loose: Vietnam* has been postponed
The 50v50 multiplayer shooter was originally set to launch this month. It will now debut on August 13 instead. “We want Hell Let Loose: Vietnam to provide the best possible experience for players on both PC and console. After thorough internal testing, along with feedback from the open beta, we’ve recognized several aspects where additional development time will enable us to offer a more robust launch experience,” the developers stated in a recent blog post.
## *StarCraft 2* has effectively become “a new game”
That’s what some players are claiming after trying out the latest patch for Blizzard’s RTS. Update 5.0.16 incorporates major adjustments to the game’s units and economy, alongside various quality-of-life enhancements. Who really needs *StarCraft 3*, right?
## *Silent Hill: Townfall* includes an F-bomb
“The term ‘f**k’ is mentioned in the game.” This tidbit leaked through the ESRB age rating for the forthcoming horror spin-off. It is thought to be a PS5 exclusive. Perhaps we’ll see it at one of this week’s showcases.
