The Unreal Engine 5.9 MegaJam Preview is here! It’s the first Unreal Engine release built primarily with agentic workflows and opens up a few new Experimental features: check out Unreal MCP’s expanded toolsets, work with AI coding agents directly in Editor, explore AI-assisted content creation, and run your projects in a browser. This isn’t your typical Unreal Engine Preview, but it’s ready just in time for the Epic MegaJam. Invite your agents and start experimenting: epic.gm/ue-5-9-preview

On PC, World of Warcraft: Forever’s planned fixed progression cap puts the journey ahead of the destination; Ocarina of Time keeps its design largely intact. Two very different ways to carry a classic forward.

GTA VI’s preload starts November 10, up to 212 GB: midnight local time on PS5, 12 a.m. GMT on Xbox Series X|S. Nine days is a great head start, but 212 GB is still a reason to check your storage now, not on launch night.

GTA VI preload starts November 10, nine days before its November 19 launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Not the flashy part of launch week, but I’d much rather spend day one playing than watching a download bar.
