Second watchOS 6.2.8 Beta Seeded To Devs By Apple

Apple Watch series 6

A new update is in the works for the Apple Watch, though at the time being it remains to be seen what it’s going to actually do. However, today developers are getting another beta period with the update, which will eventually bring watchOS up to version 6.2.8.

The release of this beta comes one week after the first beta period, and can be downloaded entirely free through the dedicated Apple Watch app on iPhone by going to General > Software Update. As always, if you plan on installing the update then your watch needs to have at least 50% charge, it needs to be placed on a charger and be in range of your iPhone.

It isn’t looking like this is going to be a major update by any means, as it’s likely that this one will just focus on minor bug fixes. This makes sense considering the 6.2.5 update wasn’t a big update either, as it mainly brought old features to new regions along with bug fixes.

The next Apple Watch is set to launch later this year, with the Series 6 debuting alongside the next iPhone lineup. While we don’t have official word at this point, several rumors suggest that there will be some big new features for the next iteration of the smartwatch. These include the likes of dedicated sleep tracking through the watch itself (previously only available through third-party apps), a pulse oximeter and more robust fitness features.

Who doesn’t enjoy listening to a good story. Personally I love reading about the people who inspire me and what it took for them to achieve their success. As I am a bit of a self confessed tech geek I think there is no better way to discover these stories than by reading every day some articles or the newspaper . My bookcases are filled with good tech biographies, they remind me that anyone can be a success. So even if you come from an underprivileged part of society or you aren’t the smartest person in the room we all have a chance to reach the top. The same message shines in my beliefs. All it takes to succeed is a good idea, a little risk and a lot of hard work and any geek can become a success. VENI VIDI VICI .

Recruited Since Last Month: More Than Eight Million Helldivers 2 Players

The relentless force of Helldivers 2 shows no signs of slowing down, as recent reports indicate that Arrowhead Games Studios, the Swedish developer behind the game, has sold over eight million copies since its release on both PS5 and PC just last month.

According to TD Cowen analyst Doug Creutz (thanks, VGC), who spoke to Bloomberg, it is believed that the game has exceeded expectations in terms of performance. It’s amazing how word-of-mouth buzz and the unconventional guerilla marketing strategy keep driving up recruitment numbers week after week. Arrowhead’s studio motto, “A game for everyone is a game for no one,” reflects their unwavering commitment to their unique internal design philosophy.

It appears that the PC community has recently surpassed the PlayStation fanbase in terms of player numbers and platform preference. However, thanks to crossplay, both groups continue to benefit from the growing popularity of gaming. Although it’s not particularly thrilling to see yet another service game achieve rapid success, the hardcore nature of Helldivers 2 fills us with optimism for Sony’s ongoing live gaming endeavors. We anticipate dedicating ourselves to the defense of Super Earth for many years to come.

What are your thoughts on Creutz’s sales estimate? Does it come as a surprise to you? Does it exceed or fall short of your expectations? Have you noticed any changes in your level of enthusiasm for the Democratic Party? Has it waned or grown stronger? We would greatly appreciate your feedback in the comments section below.

E3 is long gone, but that doesn’t mean we won’t have any exciting video game events this summer.

In a recent tweet, Keighley assured his followers that a large number of fans will be present at the event, both in person and online. He expressed excitement about the upcoming cross-platform showcase, where the future of video games will be unveiled. Presumably, PlayStation and other gaming companies will have their own separate livestreams. However, Sony has a tendency to support Summer Game Fest, so it’s worth keeping an eye out for any announcements from them.

If you’re thinking of going, tickets will be available for purchase starting on Tuesday, May 7th. It’s definitely an event worth noting on your calendar. So, what are your expectations for this year’s Summer Game Fest? Feel free to share your dream announcements in the comments section below.
