Electronic payments have become an integral part of contemporary business operations. Whether you’re a freelancer getting paid by your clients or employer, a gig worker getting paid by a site, or a business disbursing money to your partners, it is critical to have an understanding of how digital payout processes work. These systems influence how long it takes you to receive payment, what fee you will have to deal with, and how secure your money is in the process of transfer. Different Payout Speeds Depending on the Payment Method Speed is now one of the main factors users consider when…

Cross?platform gaming used to be a feature for only a few major titles. Today, it’s the baseline. The days of players being locked to one platform are over. Whether on console, mobile, or PC, people now expect to play together. Studios that don’t support that lose ground fast. This shift didn’t happen overnight. It came from years of pressure, first from players, then from developers. As games got more social and devices became more advanced, the need for shared access became hard to ignore. The impact reaches far beyond traditional games. Even digital platforms outside of gaming have had to…

No matter what gaming gear you’re after, there’s never been so much choice. Or confusion, for that matter. Every console, controller, and GPU now comes in multiple conditions and price tiers. But another issue most gamers wrestle with is how to buy it. Are you gunning for brand new from the store, restored from a reputable seller, or used from the street? Each path has its own trade-offs that affect cost, dependability, and how long your setup will last. Buying New: Maximum Peace of Mind When you buy something new, you pay for security. With brand-new hardware, parts that haven’t…

Well, here we are once again, and it’s time to look at what’s been happening in the gaming world this week. These weeks really do seem to fly by, don’t they? Perhaps that’s just us. As usual, while there hasn’t been a great deal of tremendously important news, there’s plenty to pore over, especially if you’re a fan of industry goings-on. Grab that all-important drink, find your comfiest chair, and settle in as we take a look at what’s been going on when it comes to gaming over the past seven days or so! There’s a new Dissidia Final Fantasy…

Play has always been more than just a pastime, it’s how humans learn, connect and express creativity. From childhood games to digital adventures, play sits at the centre of imagination. But in a world of leaderboards, microtransactions and endless updates, something simple has been lost: the freedom to play without expectation. The good news is that gaming is slowly rediscovering its sense of joy — where the reward isn’t in the win, but in the experience itself. Why Play Still Matters For many, gaming has become goal-driven. We grind levels, chase loot boxes and race toward unlocks. These systems can…

As the weather gets more autumnal and more and more leaves fall to the ground, the most exciting season in gaming (arguably, at any rate) begins. The months between October and December play host to some of the biggest game releases around, and this year is no exception in that department either, with the likes of Battlefield, Metroid, and more showing their faces. News-wise, these months can sometimes be a little quieter owing to the build-up to December’s Game Awards ceremony, but as ever, that doesn’t mean there’s nothing going on, so grab a chair and let’s take a look…

The Tokyo Game Show is well and truly behind us now, and we’re entering a period that is traditionally just a little bit quieter before the Game Awards arrive in December. As usual, though, just because things are a little bit more muted doesn’t mean there’s nothing to talk about; it’s still been a pretty eventful week in the world of gaming news. As ever, then, pull up a chair, grab a drink (why not a pumpkin spice latte in this most autumnal of months?), and join us as we talk about what’s been going on in gaming this week!…

Autumn is well and truly upon us now, and whether you love the shorter days or you’re counting the minutes until spring once again rolls around, one thing’s for sure: there are plenty of games to check out. October is traditionally one of the busiest months on the gaming calendar, and this year is looking no different, with a glut of highly-anticipated games set to launch in the next few weeks. We’ve collected the best of them here (or, at least, the ones we think will be the best of them), so without further ado, here are the best games…

If you grew up buying a disc or a single download and playing it for years, the live-service era probably feels like a different hobby. You’re not just buying a game now—you’re entering a relationship: seasons roll over, prices shift, drop rates get tuned, and entire modes appear or disappear. The first place that reality shows up is in the Terms & Conditions you click past at 2 a.m. Here’s a plain-English, expert take on what really changes between a classic PC/console title and a live-service game—and what to scan before you press “Accept.” Product vs. ongoing service A traditional…

That’s right: somehow, time has moved on in a linear fashion once again, as it is wont to do, and it’s once again time to take a look at what’s been happening in the gaming world this week. As you’d imagine, there’s a lot to get through; Tokyo Game Show kicked off this week, so major publishers have been announcing new projects left, right, and centre. Without further ado, then, let’s once again embark on the journey of discovering what’s been going on in gaming over the last seven days or so! Fortnite launches a brand new Daft Punk experience…

Despite the fact that it feels like barely any time has passed at all since last we convened, it’s time once again to take another look at what’s been happening in the world of gaming news this week. We’re about to enter the realms of the Tokyo Game Show, which kicks off in the coming week, and as such, news is perhaps just a little quieter than it usually is. Still, there’s plenty to pick over, as you’d expect, so grab your favourite chair and let’s recap the week in the world of gaming! Gearbox’s Randy Pitchford hits back at…

Wild Casino’s slot lobby is built for momentum: quick-loading games, clean math that doesn’t feel predatory, and enough mechanical variety to keep a seasoned player from zoning out. This ranking leans on what matters for real-world sessions—how often features show up, how lively the base game feels between bonuses, and how friendly each title is to different bankroll sizes. The list mixes reliable “session stretchers” with higher-volatility thrill rides. Where it helps, you’ll see quick pro notes on volatility, pacing, and how to approach the game without turning every spin into a chase. A Wild Casino review by GamblingNerd.com highlights…

Depending on who you ask, autumn is either well and truly in its swing or just around the corner, but either way, you’ll never guess what: we’ve got some gaming news for you again! We remain in that lull period between Gamescom and the Tokyo Game Show, during which developers feel a touch reticent to reveal anything particularly consequential, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing to pore over, of course. As usual, grab a drink, pull up your favourite chair (no, not that one, we want to sit in that one), and join us for a recap of the week’s…

We’re entering what we often think of as a lull period in the gaming calendar; between August’s Gamescom and September’s Tokyo Game Show, there often aren’t too many major announcements. Of course, as is always the case when it comes to the world of gaming, that doesn’t mean nothing is happening at all; there’s still a lot to discuss from the past week! Without further ado, then, let’s do what we always do and take a look at what’s been going on over the last seven days in the gaming world! Ubisoft confirms Rayman isn’t dead We begin with good…

If you’ve ever fumbled for your card mid-raid or watched a flash sale tick down while your bank app demanded a two-factor code, you already understand the point of game credit wallets. They’re prepaid balances tied to your gaming accounts that let you buy add-ons, battle passes, and currency instantly—no friction, no detours. Used well, they’re not just convenient; they’re a neat way to control spending, dodge sketchy checkouts, and sometimes squeeze extra value from promos. What is a game wallet, really? Think of a wallet as a sealed jar of money that sits inside an ecosystem—console, launcher, publisher, or…

It’s impossible to compile a list of the best games to check out in September 2025 without mentioning…”that” game, and don’t worry, we’ll be including that in the rundown. However, while Hollow Knight: Silksong certainly looks set to dominate the conversation for the next few weeks, there’s plenty of other stuff out there if you’re not a Metroidvania fiend. With that said, then, let’s take a look at some of the best games you can check out for the remainder of September! Metal Eden (PC, PS5, Xbox Series – September 2nd) If you played and enjoyed 2017’s slick twin-stick shooter…

That’s right – we’ve somehow come to another week’s gaming news summary, even though it feels like barely any time has passed at all since the last one. How does this keep happening? Well, regardless of time’s continued insistence on linear motion, we’re not going to be boring you with details of what the weather was doing this week; instead, we’re moving straight on to the gaming world. Without further ado, grab a drink as you usually do, pull up that chair that’s become so well-worn over our time together, and let’s once again take a look at what’s been…

Pretty soon, we’re going to need more than one hand to count the number of heatwaves this summer is bringing here in the UK, but we might finally be out of the woods after this week, so to speak. At any rate, you didn’t join us to hear us preach about the weather once again; you joined us to get a recap of the week that was in gaming news, and that’s exactly what we’re going to give you. Draw up a chair, grab your favourite mug (full of something to drink, of course), and let’s take a look at…

We here at Gamerbolt never tire of talking about the weather; it must be in our DNA, British as we are. As such, we’re pleased (or perhaps sad?) to report that it seems like the current crop of hot weather is over. Of course, we also feel like we’ve typed those words before, so there’s every chance we’ll see another warm week wash over us in due time. For now, though, we’re free to enjoy our gloomy, overcast normality. We’re not here to talk about the weather, though; we’re here to talk about gaming, and there’s lots to talk about,…

Another week in the gaming world has gone by, and wouldn’t you know it, it’s coinciding with yet another heatwave that’s hitting the UK right as this humble missive is being typed. Luckily, gaming news is weather-agnostic, so while households up and down the country might be sweating it out right now, that doesn’t mean there isn’t plenty of gaming news to pore over, as usual. Draw up a chair, grab a drink, and let’s take a look at what’s been occurring in the world of gaming over the past seven days or so! Metroid Prime 4 delay speculation builds…

As we enter the eighth month of the year, the gaming world looks just as volatile and unpredictable as it has done for the last couple of years. It’s almost impossible to predict which studio will be hit by layoffs or outright closures next, and whether certain studios will survive the year, even if they enjoy certified successes. We don’t mean to start out on a depressing note, though; there’s plenty of positive stuff going on in the gaming industry as well. Let’s take a look at what’s been happening in that very world this week! Amazon’s God of War…

The final month of this year’s summer is here, and with it comes Gamescom, a fairly major event in the calendar that sees many publishers and studios showing off their best work. Of course, there are still plenty of great games to look forward to this month; there may be shadowdrops (sudden releases) during Gamescom, but you’ll have lots to keep you busy even if there aren’t. Without further ado, then, let’s take a look at the best games coming your way in August 2025! Mafia: The Old Country (PC, PS5, Xbox Series – August 8th) First up, it’s the…

So you’ve spent hours grinding XP, fragging noobs, and collecting loot — but what if your next level-up wasn’t on a screen, but on the open roads of the UAE? Whether you’re a console warrior or a PC beast, Dubai’s the perfect place to live out your main character moment IRL. From elite gaming lounges to driving through the dunes with your squad, it all starts with one thing: 7 seater car rental Dubai. Because let’s face it — what’s the point of assembling a dream team if you can’t all ride together in style? This is the gamer’s guide to…

The summer winds on, and thankfully (or sadly, depending on your disposition), we haven’t had another whiff of the heatwaves that threatened to manifest throughout the season earlier this month. Of course, you didn’t come here to talk about the weather, as quintessentially British as that is; no, you came to hear about gaming news, and it’s a gaming news roundup we shall provide. Once again, then, without further ado, pull up a chair, grab a drink, and let’s talk about what’s been happening in the world of gaming this week! The Chinese Room ditches parent company Sumo Group This…

It’s been another eventful week in the world of gaming news, and while we’re anticipating an even more eventful one this coming week (Pokemon Presents, anyone?) there’s still plenty to pore over. Whether it’s fun stories about retired race horses, this month’s Game Pass lineup, or greenlit TV shows, the gaming news world is just as active as it’s ever been, even though we’re in a lull between major events. As ever, then, pull up a chair, fetch yourself a beverage, and let’s take a look at what’s been happening in the world of gaming this week! Nintendo registers a…

That’s right: before you’ve even realised it, another week has come and gone, and it’s once again time to take a look at what’s been going on in the world of gaming this week. Of course, if you’re in the UK, there’s a good chance you’ve been distracted by the ongoing heatwaves; to other countries, they may not look like much, but they’re serious business to those of us who dwell in perpetual rain and cloudiness. In any case, grab a drink, pull up a chair, and let’s talk about what’s been happening in gaming over the past week! Arkane…

The UK seems to be in the grip of multiple heatwaves right now; like the economy (oho, satire!), they’re advancing and receding with clockwork regularity. The world of gaming news is much the same; while there are days when not much happens, they’ll often be followed by flurries of activity, and it can be hard to keep up with what’s going on. That, of course, is where we come in! As usual, we’re about to embark on our weekly summary of the world of gaming news, so without further ado, let’s get started! Donkey Kong Bananza is being made by…

After the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2, you’d be forgiven for thinking that July looks like a quieter month for game releases. It turns out that the opposite is actually true; there’s so much good stuff coming out in July that we’re not even sure we’re going to get much of a chance to catch up with June’s haul. Without further ado, then, let’s take a look at the best games coming your way in July 2025. We reckon these are probably worth your time, and you won’t even have to put your Switch 2 down for some of…

Just when we thought the UK had escaped the worst (or best, depending on your perspective) of the hot weather this summer, another heatwave sweeps in and knocks everyone off their sun loungers. Well, the weather outside might be scorching, but we’ve got plenty of fresh gaming news from the week gone to take a look at, so don’t worry if you’re not the outdoorsy type. Here are the highlights of the week starting June 23rd in the world of gaming! Peak is a very popular climbing game indeed If you’ve paid attention to the world of Twitch or YouTube…

If you’re in the UK, then congratulations on having survived the summer’s first mini-heatwave! We’re sure there will be many more to come before September rolls around. As usual, though, we’re not here to talk about the weather. No, we’re here to recap what’s been happening in the gaming world over the past seven days, and that’s exactly what we intend to do. Here, as has become customary on a Monday morning, is our roundup of the most significant stories in gaming news over the last week! Stellar Blade hits a million PC sales in three days If you were…
