Larian isn't done with Baldur's Gate 3 yet: 'We still have a few things up our sleeve' after Patch 7 goes live
https://www.pcgamer.com/games/rpg/larian-isnt-done-with-baldurs-gate-3-yet-we-still-have-a-few-things-up-our-sleeve-after-patch-7-goes-live/
The next big update to Baldur's Gate 3, officially known as Patch 7, is coming in September, and ahead of that Larian has dropped an in-depth update on what the patch will include. The studio is also now taking applications for a closed beta test for the patch, which is set to go live—the beta test, that is, not the patch—on July 22.

CD Projekt's Pawel Sasko tells the inspiring tale of how an Estonian beet farmer in Australia became a senior quest designer on The Witcher 4

One of the big strengths of CD Projekt's Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077 RPGs is that they're so extensively moddable. That's great for players of the game, who get to take advantage of new features and add-ons the original developers never imagined, but it's also good news for budding game developers who dream of one day working in Warsaw. In a lengthy interview with Flow Gaming, CD Projekt's Pawel Sasko said the studio draws extensively from the modding community when it's hiring.

No Man's Sky goes 5.0 with a sweeping tech update that's 'adding things the community has almost given up hope on ever happening'

At this point, I think No Man's Sky might be the most developed non-MMO in history. Hello Games is hard at work on a whole new open world the size of the actual Earth, and yet, somehow, the siren song of the studio's initially disastrous (and subsequently more than redeemed) space sim keeps pulling it back for more updates.

Minecraft players manage to destroy their server after sending a nuclear reactor into meltdown, 'I snuck a fish into the reactor'

Minecraft players are no strangers to making odd and complex creations in the sandbox game. Previously, we've seen all sorts, like one player who made a redstone PC so they could play Minecraft in Minecraft or when someone else created a word processor in the crafting game. 
Over the last decade or so, I've learned never to underestimate a Minecraft player, which is why when I saw that a group of players had managed to recreate a nuclear reactor in a custom server and then subsequently blow it up, I was actually too surprised.
