Xbox Cloud Gaming is getting next-gen treatment too — here’s what we expect to see in the coming months and years for cloud gamers ☁️

From my perspective, I find Xbox Cloud Gaming to be the most forward-thinking part of Microsoft’s gaming universe. Although it is currently in its beta stage, the service has significantly improved, offering playable levels of latency, an expanding collection of games that can be bought and owned on Xbox Cloud, and access to hundreds of titles through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

AI-powered malware eludes Microsoft Defender’s security checks 8% of the time — with just 3 months of training and “reinforcement learning” for around $1,600

Currently, cunning individuals are becoming increasingly inventive, devising clever methods to circumvent advanced security measures and illegally access confidential information.

Marvel Rivals’ swimsuit lineup kicks off this week — with hot new outfits for these characters

The two skins are scheduled to debut on July 18, 2025, at 2:00 UTC, 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time, and 7:00 a.m. Pacific Time. At this moment, we don’t have information about the price, but it is likely that buying both skins together as a bundle will be less expensive than purchasing them separately.

Both outfits look fantastic, but I am especially excited about Loki’s attire. Since I often play Loki when using strategists, I can see this outfit replacing my current choice of his Season 2 TV series appearance. Perhaps they could also add an emote showing him briefly transforming into an alligator?

According to concept art shared by NetEase Games, Loki’s adoptive brother and rival Thor will also be sporting some impressive swimwear, while Luna Snow is heating up her outfit.

We’ll have to wait a little longer to see what these two swimsuit-themed outfits look like in the game. I am also curious to find out if any other heroes will reveal their summer skins soon. It’s possible that the developers are limiting it to a few characters to gauge reactions for next year, but we shall see.

Marvel Rivals is not the only game planning swimsuit-themed skins to entice players to spend money. Recently, Capcom shared concept art for the Outfit 4 lineup in Street Fighter 6, featuring Cammy, Chun-Li, and others participating in the summer fun.

Furthermore, this filing raises doubts about several points within Microsoft’s review on the matter, with their findings being previously communicated in a statement issued in May.
