Battlefield Studios measures the success of its anti-cheat system differently than most. Instead of focusing on how many cheaters they catch, they track the ‘Match Infection Rate,’ or MIR – which estimates the chance that a match was affected by a cheater. After launch, they reported a MIR of only 2%, meaning a remarkable 98% of matches weren’t impacted by cheating.
In a recent interview with Bloomberg, Team Cherry’s Ari Gibson explained they’re still actively developing the game and focusing on exciting new content. He understands fans want to know when they can expect updates, and reassured them that new content is planned for the near future, not years down the line.

Looking at what everyone chose as their favorites, a few clear trends emerged. Sinners was the most popular film, Adolescence the most beloved TV show, and Oh, Mary! the top Broadway production of the year. While most people (79%) identified a song of the summer, opinions were widely varied. Interestingly, The Rehearsal both increased and decreased people’s fear of flying. Many of the people we surveyed, including Rachel Zegler, Supriya Ganesh, and Gabby Windey, turned to the writings of Joan Didion for inspiration. It was also fascinating to learn how and why they enjoyed different forms of culture – often fitting episodes or albums into busy schedules, or using them to prepare for work (like Ben Ahlers listening to Kendrick Lamar’s GNX before an audition). It became clear these 50 influential people were also inspired by each other’s work. For example, Chase Sui Wonders enjoyed Lola Tung’s performance in The Summer I Turned Pretty, and Lola Tung was moved by Sadie Sink in John Proctor Is the Villain. Sadie Sink, in turn, watched season two of Severance during breaks from rehearsals, and this pattern continued throughout the group.
The movie adaptation of the horror game was a big hit when it was released in October 2023. It made almost $300 million around the world, despite only costing $20 million to produce, making it Blumhouse’s most profitable film so far.
Disney received approximately $104.7 million (£82 million) in tax credits from the U.K. for the film Deadpool & Wolverine. This includes $77.6 million (£60.9 million) in 2024 and $26.8 million (£21.1 million) in 2023, as reported by The London Standard and Forbes. This is the biggest tax credit given to a single movie production in the U.K. since 2007.
This issue is likely to be debated repeatedly, largely because Valve hasn’t been willing to clearly state its position. They also seem unwilling to compromise, as shown by their current policies regarding accounts when an owner passes away – there are no easy solutions for consumers in that situation.
About ten years ago, Fortnite exploded in popularity, becoming a cultural phenomenon. Though it’s only available through the Epic Games Store – and actually helped launch that platform – Steam offers its own similar game, PUBG: Battlegrounds. While both games aren’t as popular as they once were, they still attract hundreds of thousands of players every day. To avoid relying on just one game, the creators of PUBG decided to develop other titles. Many people unfamiliar with the gaming world might be curious about what PUBG stands for and who PlayerUnknown is.
