Catch up on the latest news, rumours and announcements from the world of video games, tech and entertainment:

– Threads, Meta’s Twitter-like app, is officially scheduled to launch on Thursday, 6 July. It’s already available to pre-order on both the Apple App Store and the Google Play app store. Opinions remain mixed regarding whether or not it’ll be able to outmatch Twitter in users and popularity.

– The latest “Genshin Impact 4.0” leak has revealed details about the upcoming Hydro Traveller’s ability kit, which includes a new Aquacrest Saber elemental skill that allows you to unleash water torrents upon opponents, and an Elemental Burst called Rising Waters, which allows you to release damage-dealing floating bubbles.

– According to Blizzard executive producer Jared Neuss, there will likely be long breaks between new PvE story mission updates for “Overwatch 2”. In other words, story missions will take longer to be released, with the next one projected to be released only in 2024 after the August “Invasion” mission.

– Daniel Radcliffe says he’s “not seeking” to make a cameo in the upcoming HBO Max remake of the “Harry Potter” series.
