Publisher Kepler Interactive and newcomer developer Shapefarm have revealed Orbitals, a co-op puzzle adventure inspired by classic anime. The gorgeous reveal trailer also reveals that Orbitals will launch exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2 sometime in 2026.

In the game, players will team up as Maki and Omura, two inseparable explorers who must brave the perils of space to save the crumbling space station they call home from a supernatural cosmic storm.

Seeking holiday inspiration from films, soaps or sitcoms is the new global travel trend, with the UK remaining an evergreen choice /news/big-story/setjetting-uk-travel-trend-expedia-111714111224778.html 111714111224778 story On a family trip to Wales last summer, I made time for the usual suspects: Pembrokeshire, Aberystwyth, Anglesey and the national parks. I also made a day trip to Devil’s Bridge, a place I had only seen in a couple of episodes of Hinterland, a noir crime drama set in Wales. The dark and atmospheric Devil’s Bridge comprises three bridges that span the Afon Mynach, a tributary of the Rheidol. Each one, built upon the previous…

Image: SteveAllenPhoto999/Envato Across APAC, the operational agenda for financial institutions has become unambiguously focused on resilience. IDC’s 2024 analysis shows that nearly 90% of Asia/Pacific enterprises now run meaningful workloads across multiple public clouds. This shift has introduced a level of architectural complexity that makes traditional monitoring and incident-response models increasingly insufficient. For AI in finance, particularly in the banking, financial services, and insurance sector, the implications are sharper. Regional banks are contending with mainframe cores, private cloud integration layers, and a rapidly expanding perimeter of SaaS and partner systems. This has created more interfaces to manage, more failure modes to anticipate,…

Image: Envato/osbmxhouse The Indian government has officially rescinded a controversial mandate that would have forced smartphone manufacturers to ship new devices with a state-run cybersafety tool preloaded. The decision, confirmed by India’s telecoms ministry on Wednesday, marks a swift policy reversal following significant resistance from global tech giants and privacy advocates. The initial directive, issued confidentially on Nov. 28, set a 90-day deadline for vendors to integrate the Sanchar Saathi app into their firmware, with the stipulation that users must not be allowed to delete it. The withdrawal ends a brief but tense standoff between New Delhi and major handset…
Image: Sashkin/Adobe Stock Cybersecurity researchers have revealed two critical flaws in Wondershare RepairIt, an AI-powered repair tool used by millions, that open the door to massive supply chain attacks. Trend Micro disclosed the details last week, and says RepairIt “contradicted its privacy policy by collecting, storing, and, due to weak Development, Security, and Operations (DevSecOps) practices, inadvertently leaking private user data.” The vulnerabilities carry CVSS scores of 9.1 and 9.4, which are among the worst seen in consumer AI apps this year. RepairIt was keeping user files in unsecured cloud storage without encryption, despite explicitly assuring users their data would…
