There is a specific audience who’ll be over the moon about this keyboard, and happy to pay the $260/£240 Corsair’s asking for it. The thing is, it really is a specific audience. While some of its best assets can be universally enjoyed, like the creamy-smooth key actuation and Corsair’s trademark construction quality, a lot of…
Minecraft‘s second drop of 2026 has been revealed, and if you’re the type of player to spend most of your time underground, it’s certainly an update you should be keeping an eye on.

The Slime has come. Over the weekend, Square Enix announced a collaboration with Google which will see a generative AI-powered “companion” added to Dragon Quest X.
