France's Constitutional Council struck down the under-15 social media ban on August 14, 2026, citing two specific, fixable defects. France is also piloting the EU's own privacy-preserving age-verification app, built to fix exactly the gap the court cited.
CD Projekt Red cut 18 people from Project Sirius on August 12, 2026, shrinking the team 22 percent in 3.5 months. Its own Q1 2026 filing shows The Witcher 4 and Cyberpunk 2 headcount growing in the same window, its only live-service bet shrinking.

Square Enix's Q1 FY2027 operating income jumped 88.6 percent to 17.0 billion yen on Final Fantasy VII Rebirth's multiplatform release. The company's own filing keeps full-year operating income guidance 5.7 billion yen below last year's actual result.
Clop named Shell, Philips, GE and Fiserv among nearly 50 victims of a campaign exploiting a PTC Windchill flaw patched two months earlier.
