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.

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
