All US retailers now have access to Tap to Pay on iPhone thanks to Square.

It will enable businesses to take payments exclusively using iPhones.
After conducting an early access program over the previous few months, Square has now officially unveiled its Tap to Pay solution for the iPhone. As a result, retailers all around the US may now accept payments from clients using simply their iPhones and the company’s Point of Sale software. They do, however, not need to purchase any additional hardware in order to access the feature; they simply need to have a more recent iPhone; the earliest device that can run the feature is the iPhone 11.
Sellers merely need to complete the sale on Square‘s app, just like with any other point-of-sale system, and then customers may pay with contactless credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, or other digital wallets. Square is hopeful that the solution will make doing business in person simple for even tiny merchants. Apple stated in its announcement that it neither stores credit card numbers on the sellers’ device nor on its servers, addressing a possible security worry.
In June, Square made its initial announcement that it will enable Apple’s Tap to Pay on iPhones, which the tech giant had been spotted testing at its visitor center in May. In order to allow a few shops and sellers to test it out, it launched its early access program at the same time. One of the participants claimed that it improved their ability to serve younger clients who preferred using contactless cards and digital wallets for payment.

Baldur’s Gate 3’s Xbox Version Will Help PS5

Belgian developer Larian Studios’ work on Baldur’s Gate 3’s Xbox Series S version will improve performance on all platforms, including PS5. The game’s fifth major patch, expected to launch this week, will include upgrades and new features. More details will be revealed later today.
Director of Publishing Michael Douse says PS5 performance improvements may be the “least exciting thing” in the title’s next update, so it sounds like a big one. Larian Studios employees are proud of “finally” implementing tweaks, fixes, and changes, Douse says. Later today, we’ll bring you all the Baldur’s Gate 3 update details.
Those who reached the RPG’s third act have reported technical issues during the narrative’s conclusion, especially in co-op, so today’s update should fix them. New features like a permadeath mode are expected, along with Xbox Series S optimization fixes. What else should be added to the game?

PC Mounts Show PlayStation Trophy Support

We love the PlayStation ecosystem, especially its top first-party studios, but Sony Interactive Entertainment could do more to build goodwill. The long-awaited Trophy support for PS5 games on PC appears to be closer to reality, though nothing official has been announced.
TrueTrophie’s scanners found a new PS5 Trophy list with “PSPC” as a platform. The list, titled “Trophy Set” and unattached to a game, appears to be a test. TrueTrophies notes that developers rarely submit their own platforms to PSN, suggesting Sony is behind it.
TrueTrophies says this platform is separate from PS5 but can connect to it, suggesting compatibility. As PlayStation fans know, PS4, PS Vita, and PS3 games could share a list. In October 2022, Sony added PSN support to Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered’s PC release, allowing players to link Steam accounts to unlock an exclusive skin. Potentially minor, but something we’ll watch.
TrueTrophies lists PlayStation Trophies for serious hunters. They scrape the PlayStation Network’s ominous underbelly with scanners to provide the most up-to-date trophy lists, sometimes dangerously. TrueTrophies posted Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s trophy list weeks ago, with spoiler titles.

No worries, PS5 Slim SSD upgrades are possible

Next month, the PS5 Slim will replace the original PS5. Its main selling point is its detachable disc drive. Sony’s design change will streamline manufacturing, but consumers will have more flexibility. The refreshed machine will be 30% smaller than its predecessor, reducing its footprint.
But since the manufacturer hadn’t mentioned it, some worried you couldn’t install another SSD. A spokesperson told IGN that “there are no changes with the new model”—you can still install a compatible hard drive to expand the console’s storage.
Note that the new model increases on-board storage from 825GB to 1TB, so you get more space out of the box. However, some games are now so large that you may need a new PS5 SSD.
