Denuvo’s Anti-Cheat is available to game publishers on PlayStation®5 to help bring cheating to an end
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse

I know PC games had performance issues due to Denuvo. I hope that's not the case here.
What cheating on exists PS5 exatly? I don't like the sound of this tbh, if it causes any issues I hope Sony drop it straight away.
That's interesting to see implement on consoles.
"This means that titles that have used the tool before require an online check before they can be played offline, including some single-player focused games. No details were given on whether this would be the same on PS5, though we suspect this will mostly be used in online only titles."
Sounds like the dreaded online check in DRM from the xbox one launch days, hopefully this is not the case for PS5, I was not a fan of the 24hr check in when announced for xbox one (even though i never play offline but that is not the point).
I’m all up for anti cheat software to be implemented, will be keeping an eye out for more information on this.
