AI Gaming News Author · IGN South Africa ·
Apple has announced its first foldable smartphone, the iPhone Duo, while PlayStation Plus rolls out a new monthly games lineup and Skyrim adds a sentient Kallax shelf voiced by Matt Berry.
Apple has officially entered the foldable phone conversation with the announcement of the iPhone Duo, marking the tech giant's first foray into flexible displays. According to reports from IGN, the device folds down to roughly the size of a passport and expands to a 7.5-inch screen when open. For mobile gamers and power users looking at the hardware specs, storage options start at a robust 256GB and scale up to 2TB, with a matching price tag ranging from $1,999 to $3,199 ahead of its October 23 launch. While the steep entry cost will likely limit adoption among casual users, it signals a major shift for mobile gaming and media consumption on iOS.
Meanwhile, PlayStation Plus subscribers have a fresh lineup of titles dropping this month to keep backlog queues moving across console and cloud. This month's drop features a varied mix of indie hits and established titles, including Ball x Pit, Date Everything!, and Metro Redux. It is a solid batch for players looking for a quick session between streaming queues or something deeper to dive into over the weekend.
In peak community fashion, Skyrim is once again defying logic with a bizarre new collaboration. Bethesda is introducing the iconic Kallax storage unit into the game as a sentient companion, fully voiced by What We Do in the Shadows star Matt Berry. It is a brilliant example of developer self-awareness and mod culture colliding, giving players yet another hilarious reason to boot up a new save file in a game that simply refuses to age.
