Xbox Series X next-gen gameplay reveal event set for May 7

Microsoft has taken to Twitter to announce their next Xbox Series X event. The event, which will be a digital-only event, will take place on May 7 at 8:30 PM India time. Microsoft has tweeted, “You want to see games for the Xbox Series X? We want to show you games for the Xbox Series X. Check out First Look next-gen gameplay from our global developer's partners within #InsideXbox on Thursday, May 7 at 8am PT.” Since the tweet reads, “gameplay from our global developer's partners”, we think this will be the platform where Microsoft will show off what other developers are working on that will make an appearance on the next-generation consoles. As for first-party games, we think the reveal will be down the line for what Microsoft’s 16 first-party Xbox studios have to offer. It has been confirmed that gameplay for the recently revealed Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will be shown off at Microsoft’s May event. Speaking of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, the game saw the official unveiling of a gameplay trailer and you can check out details of the game here. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will be released for the Xbox One, Xbox Series X, PS4, and PS5 towards the end of 2020. 

At E3 2019 and E3 2018, Microsoft made it a point to show off a lot of games during their press conference to cement the fact that they were committed to the Xbox and gaming. We think the upcoming May event will be filled with gameplay reveal after reveal from new and existing games. It is possible we get to see more details on the highly anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 among other games. 

Microsoft has been front and centre about giving gamer information about the upcoming console, the Xbox Series X. Microsoft took the stage at the Game Awards 2019 to announce the name and the look of the console along with a trailer that showed off Hellblade Senua’s Saga. In 2020, Microsoft gave us an in-depth look at the specifications and build of the console. 

Sony, on the other hand, has only shown off the PS5 controller dubbed the DualSense and revealed the specifications of the PS5. It makes sense that Sony is quiet about the PS5 as they still have 2 big games set to launch in 2020 - The Last of Us Part 2 and Ghost of Tsushima. You can read more about the new release date of the two games here.

20th Century Fox researchers create AI model to predict audience for a movie

Image
In a first, researchers from 20th Century Fox film studios have developed an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered model to predict what target audience will most likely see a movie. The prediction is done on the basis of the film’s trailer. Since video trailers are one of the most critical elements of marketing campaigns for new films, the model can provide an opportunity to filmmakers to make movies depending on the interests of general moviegoer population, easily communicate the plot of the movie to them, present the main characters, and reveal important hints about the story. This could also help them to understand what aspects of the movie the audience liked and what parts they did not. “These insights typically determine the strategy for the rest of the marketing campaign. In this paper we present a tool, which we call Merlin Video, that uses computer vision to create dense representations of the movie trailer, and uses those representations to predict customer behaviour.

Alleged iPhone SE 2 leaked renders tip old design, single rear camera, Touch ID and more

Image
Apple is rumoured to launch the iPhone SE successor - tentatively called the iPhone SE 2 - in 2020. Now, alleged iPhone SE 2 renders have leaked online. The phone is supposed to pack flagship internals in a not-so-flagship level design. The first leak-based renders and 360-degree video of alleged iPhone SE 2 suggest that it will carry the design of iPhone 8, which means it will come with the Touch ID button. Further, the leaks reveal a single rear camera setup. The latest development comes courtesy of tipster @OnLeaks in collaboration with iGeeksBlog. At first glance, the iPhone SE 2 looks like the iPhone 8. However, there are said to be a few differentiating factors, both internally and externally, to distinguish between the two phones. On the exterior, the iPhone SE 2 is touted to come with a frosted glass finish similar to the one seen on iPhone 11 Pro. The leaked renders suggest that iPhone SE 2 will sport a stainless steel frame that looks like iPhone X’s frame.  iPhone SE 2 is

After Facebook, Apples plan to introduce Apple Pay in India stalls: Report

Image
Apple’s plans to introduce its UPI-based payments platform ‘Apple Pay’ seem to have hit a brick wall. According to a report in The Economic Times, the reason for this is that the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) recently laid out rules which make it mandatory for any company, who wishes to introduce payment service in India, to save all the related data on local servers in the country. Citing people with the knowledge of the matter, the national daily reported that apart from Apple and Facebook, Amazon has also stalled the full rollout of its service, Amazon Pay. Google, which recently renamed its UPI-based service ‘Tez’ to ‘Google Pay’, is also reported to be “assessing the evolving situation around data localisation.” With the rules in place, other players like Facebook, Mastercard, Visa, and PayPal are also uncertain of going ahead with their plans. “Apple put the brakes on introducing Apple Pay in the country despite holding discussions with a few leading banks and the National Payme
