NCSoft teases what could be the long-rumoured Horizon MMO

Following the success of Horizon Zero Dawn and its sequel Forbidden West, Sony announced that they would be partnering up with MMO specialists NCSoft in order to “broaden PlayStation's reach to a wider audience”. Though yet to be officially announced, NCSoft’s long-rumoured Horizon MMO is seemingly set to be unveiled later this week.

As part of the upcoming G-STAR 2025 event in Korea, NCSoft have announced that they are serving as this year’s primary sponsor in order to introduce “the new frontier of MMORPG” – alongside a bunch of other previously-announced titles (as reported by mmorpg.com).

Horizon NCSoft

Set to go live between the 13th and 16th of November, there has been no official wording on whether the rumoured Horizon MMO will be present. That said, the stars do seem to be aligning, especially with initial reports surrounding the project going as far back as 2022; with the partnership itself being made official the following year.

Of course, we will have to wait and see whether the project is finally officially announced or not – and what style of MMO it winds up being. Hopefully we’ll find out later this week.

KitGuru says: Are you looking forward to the Horizon MMO? Could it be PlayStation’s next big hit? Are you more excited for the Horizon MMO or multiplayer project? Let us know down below.

Minister suggests BBC should apologise to Trump over documentary as president threatens $1bn lawsuit – UK politics live

Alison McGovern speaks to media about BBC crisis as culture secretary due to address MPs in attempt to contain fallout

On the Today programme, Christopher Ruddy, CEO of Newsmax, a rightwing news organisation in the US, and someone who has been a friend of Donald Trump for years, was interviewed about Trump’s threat to sue the BBC. Here are the main points he made.

Ruddy said that, if the BBC were to fight the case in the Florida courts, they would probably win. He explained:

The fact is, I’m from the state of Florida. I’m very familiar with the Florida libel laws.

I have no doubt the BBC misrepresented what the president said. And that’s pretty clear. I think everybody agrees, otherwise you wouldn’t have had those resignations.

But Ruddy also acknowledged that other media organisations sued by Trump had decided to settle rather contest his claims. “What’s happening is that a lot of media companies would prefer not to go through the media spectacle of all this,” he said.

Ruddy said that, when Trump forced other media organisations to settle, he viewed that as proving his case that they were peddling “fake news”. Referring to the CBS and ABC lawsuits (see 9.22am), Ruddy said:

I think he sees these as victories … He sees this as legitimising his claims that there’s fake news, that the news is out to get him.

Ruddy said Trump regarded the BBC resignations announced on Sunday as a victory.

I congratulate that the BBC and people resigned, and they were held accountable. In American media organisation oftentimes you don’t see that and there’s not a sense of accountability.

The president sees this as a big victory for him in his claim the media is out to get him.

Ruddy said he thought there was a good chance that Trump would go ahead with his threat to sue the BBC.

He may very well sue the BBC because he’s had a winning record on bringing these suits.

Ruddy said that the fact that the BBC is funded by the taxpayer would not deter Trump.

I think that he he feels that there are very big wealth funded organisation and if they did him wrong then and he could be compensated for that. And I think he sees that as a win for him and a win for truth.

Ruddy said he did not think Trump would worry about legal action damaging his relationship with the UK government.

I do think that it [legal action] doesn’t hurt his relationship [with the UK government]. He has a very good relationship with Keir Starmer. He’s certainly widely respects King Charles.

He does not see this as impinging at all on the very good relationship that he has with Britain. I was with him at Windsor Castle, when he was there [for the state visit]. I think he and Melania felt that was one of the high points of his presidency so far.

The BBC is going to be thriving and I support everyone on the team.

Report: iPhone Air 2 is delayed until 2027 so Apple can add a second camera to it

Last night, The Information reported that Apple had delayed the iPhone Air 2 launch, from its original schedule of fall 2026. In a follow-up post, The Information reports the second-generation model is now aiming for a spring 2027 release, which would be alongside updates to the base model iPhone 18 (as Apple is shifting the release of that model to the spring going forward).

The reason for the delay is apparently Apple is redesigning the product to address customer complaints, most notably by adding a second camera lens to the back. However, it’s currently unclear if spring 2027 is an achievable deadline.
