Why am I seeing this Ranked on recency
It is here mostly because it is new. Freshness is the largest single contributor to its score, which means nothing about the story except that it is recent.
Nothing much is corroborating this yet. On a quiet day in gaming that is enough to reach the top of the section — recency, not significance, is doing the work here.

| Factor | Weight | Score | Contribution | Where it came from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Corroboration | 0.35 | 0.39 | +0.135 32% | 1 independent org on the story. Tier-3 aggregators never corroborate — they can show something is circulating, never that it is true. |
| Source trust | 0.25 | 0.44 | +0.110 26% | TechPowerUp is the highest-trust source on this story. Trust is taken from the best source, not averaged. |
| Pickup rate | 0.20 | 0.00 | +0.000 0% | One counted organisation, so there is no spread to measure — nothing has picked this up to set a rate. |
| Freshnessleads | 0.20 | 0.90 | +0.181 42% | Halves every 10 hours from the newest item on the story. This is the only factor that rewards a story for nothing more than being recent. |
Corroboration counts distinct organisations, once each, and only from tiers 1 and 2. Freshness halves every 10 hours, so this ranking is a snapshot and will differ at the next build.
What happened
At the Tokyo Game Show, Kojima Productions and Xbox just both announced the cast and revealed a new poster for Physint, the upcoming action game that was almost squashed by Sony before finding its feet again at Xbox three months later. The pair confirmed that Physint would be led by Bill Skarsgård, with Charlee Fraser, Don Lee, and Minami Hamabe taking up supporting roles. The poster, which is the game's first-ever poster, features Skarsgård and Fraser in a dramatic, almost noir- or political thriller-inspired pose, and notably includes the text "The next Cold War begins" at the bottom of the poster.
