In today's Daily Fix: DC Studios co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran are out, in a massive shakeup in Skydance media subsidiaries. The announcement was made by owner Skydance co-CEOs David Ellison and Ynon Kriez. Gunn and Safran will be replaced by Jeremy Latcham, who previously worked as a producer with Gunn on Guardians of the Galaxy for Marvel. Gunn and Safran will stay on in producer roles on projects already in the works at DC Studios. This follows an up and down year for the rebooted film studio, with strong box office returns and reviews for James Gunn's Superman last year, but a massive bomb with this year's Supergirl. Clayface was a modest hit, and their HBO fare has been widely acclaimed. Gunn is still in the middle of post-production on next year's Man of Tomorrow. In other news, Godzilla: Minus Zero opened to a titanic $64 million weekend worlwide, making it the biggest debut for a live-action foreign film ever. And in gaming news, Sony is launching a new model of the PlayStation Portal in Japan, and this could be the next step in a new full-fledged PlayStation gaming handheld.

In today's Daily Fix:An artistic pilot has "painted" a mural of GTA 6 in the sky. Benjamin McDaniel flew his Cessna across the Arkansas sky and used this flightpath to paint the image. It's not his first one; McDaniel has done the Mona Lisa, the dragon logo from Skyrim, and others. You can also request art from his website at thepilotpicasso.com. In other news, Sony has updated its list of perks for UK PlayStation Plus users, and gamers are pretty underwhelmed. The perks, such as a YouTube Premium account, Audible membership, and more, are just trials which expire after a set time limit.

In today's Daily Fix:Sony has finally revealed sales numbers for Marvel's Wolverine, and while it's already a million-seller, it's still well behind Insomniac's Spider-Man 2 over the same time period of two months. Still, software sales were strong despite slower PS5 console sales. But that could change with the launch of GTA 6 in a couple of weeks. Speaking of sales figures, Nintendo has reported slower Switch 2 sales, but have not updated their financial outlook. Nintendo still expects to sell around 16 million Switch 2 units by the end of March 2027, and the console is still outpacing Year 2 sales of the Switch 1. The launch of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake should also give console sales a shot in the arm this holiday.

In today's Daily Fix:Sony has decided to delay God of War Laufey a few months to May 2027. Originally slated for February 2027, developer Sony Santa Monica said the game needs extra time to "make an extraordinary experience worth of the passion and dedication of our fans." This does free up a little room in a crowded post-holiday release calendar, with Fable, Metro 2039, and others still scheduled to be released around that time. In other news, Bloodborne still doesn't have a next-gen update, but Sony might not need one if the original keeps selling the way it is. According to industry analysts, Bloodborne sold 250,000 copies in 2026 alone, impressive for an 11-year-old game.

In today's Daily Fix:Rockstar has officially revealed how much space you'll need to clear for GTA 6, and it's about 212GB (Depending on your device, meaning PS5 and Xbox versions will likely have different sizes). The game will also be available for preload at 9pm PST on November 9th, and will be playable 9pm PST November 18th. For those missing the map that came with physical copies of the previous games, Rockstar will make a printable map available from their website, and a physical one you can buy for 99 cents (or free with a purchase of anything else). In other news, The Elder Scrolls 6 has officially received the subtitle of Sentinel, verifiying all those leaks from earlier.

In today's Daily Fix:Phantom Blade Zero has sold 4 million (!) copies in just three days, and it's a sure bet we've seen the birth of a new franchise. Although it's a far cry from fellow Chinese-developed game with Eastern influence Black Myth: Wukong, which sold 10 million (!!) in three days, it's still a fantastic start to a game that is also resonating with critics. In other news, Nintendo has revealed the development team behind The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake: Entertainment Planning & Development Production Group No. 3. While not exactly a household name, they've been behind every major Zelda game for the past 30 years, so the remake is in good hands. And we’ve got a peek at the five immersive worlds of the all-new Universal Epic Universe, and one of its featured attractions – Stardust Racers, all at Universal Orlando Resort.

In today's Daily Fix:A new report from Bloomberg claims EA had to choose between Star Wars and Mass Effect, which resulted in the closure of BioWare. EA is facing financial pressure due to the $18 billion debt it took on during the Saudi buyout. The company then only had enough budget to back one big sci-fi game, and they chose Star Wars Battlefront 3 as the safer bet. In other news, Gears of War: E-Day has moved only 400,000 copies across Xbox and PC, a relatively low number for a marquee franchise. The Verge is reporting that Game Pass is the cause of low sales, as the game was a Day One launch title for the service. And finally, Assassin's Creed Valhalla is getting a New Game Plus update six years after the game first dropped. Ubisoft says more updates are planned.

In today's Daily Fix:Some leaked info surrounding The Elder Scrolls 6 has popped up again, and The Verge is reporting that an official reveal could be around the corner, possibly November. A leaked, but unverified, title was floating around not too long ago, suggesting the official name for the game is The Elder Scrolls 6: Sentinel, and The Verge is sticking by that name. The setting for the game is also heavily rumored to be Hammerfell. In other news, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma insists that Series X and S sales are being constrained by their availability...yeah sure. A quick glance at any major retailer's website shows the Xbox Series X and S and their many variants are in stock (except of course for some of the limited edition models). And finally, Phantom Blade Zero is a hit for Chinese game studio S-GAME. The game debuted to the number two spot on Steam's most-played list, with around 723,000 concurrents.

In today's Daily Fix:Phantom Blade Zero has sold around one million pre-launch copies worldwide. This comes from Alinea Analytics, who says that S-GAME's wuxia-inspired action game has sold 850,000 copies in the West on Steam and PS5, and another quarter million from Tencent's WeGame (a Chinese-only digital storefront). The game is reviewing well, too, with IGN scoring it a 9. In other news, PlayStation has revealed their PS Plus lineup for November, which includes Dead Island 2, Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered, and Monster Train 2.

In today's Daily Fix:Clayface was a much-needed box office win for Warner Bros. and DC Studios. The horror movie based on the DC character brought in around $43 million worldwide, enough for the top spot at the weekend box office. The modest budget of around $40 million also helped the movie's bottom line. In other news, composer Austin Wintory revealed he was in talks with BioWare to create music the now-canceled Mass Effect 5. He has shared drafts of music for the game online.
