Warden, Necromancer, and what sounds a lot like a vampire are also on the list
A new teaser trailer has been released which gives a first look at gameplay from the upcoming VR/MR game Evangelion: Δ Cross Reflections.
Following the game’s latest preview event in San Francisco, California, its developers have released new footage of Evangelion: Δ Cross Reflections. The new trailer shows off pre-release footage, including some extremely strange elements.
We’ve embedded the trailer below:

Evangelion: Δ Cross Reflections is the first installment in a planned trilogy that aims to cover all 26 episodes of the TV series. The immersive action-adventure will tell a new story from the perspective of an original protagonist who dreams of becoming a pilot, making connections between the anime’s “key episodes” and the game’s new characters.
“Players will enjoy the story set in the locations from the anime from their own perspective. Battles between Evangelions and Angels, various interactive elements, and engaging captivating storylines with original characters are also planned,” Pixelity noted in a press release.
The new footage looks undeniably cool, though the “Pre-release footage. Final Product may differ” disclaimer gives pause. This, combined with some unusual footage, makes me question what this game/experience is all about. (Had you given me 100 chances to guess what we’d see in this trailer prior to viewing, interactive hedge-trimming in front of an onlooking Rei Ayanami would not have made the list.)
I like weird stuff, though, so I’m very interested to see more.
If you’re interested, too, and you happen to live in or are visiting Frankfurt, Germany in the near future, you’ll have a chance to attend the game’s next preview event. The exact date and location of the next event have not yet been released. Previous hands-on events have been held in Japan and, most recently, in San Francisco, California.
Pixelity has not yet revealed specifics on platform or release date, listing only “2027” and “various VR devices” in press documents. For more details on upcoming hands-on preview events, follow Pixelity on social media, and stay tuned to UploadVR.

hcs_$reboot writes: Trump hosted executives from OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, Google, Nvidia, and other tech companies at the White House. They agreed to voluntary AI-safety standards, including independent audits and safeguards aimed at preventing AI systems from accessing or hacking technical systems in unintended ways. Trump also strongly backed the continued rapid expansion of AI data centers, despite concerns over their electricity demand, utility costs, and other impacts on local communities. He said he is considering creating a 10-member board to oversee AI safety and plans to appoint a new White House official to lead AI policy.
The meeting comes amid growing concerns about the risks posed by advanced AI, including reports from OpenAI and Anthropic that their AI agents had gone rogue and hacked into other companies’ systems. A nationwide Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted September 17-20 found that 73% of respondents worried AI companies had not done enough to prevent AI from causing serious harm to society. During the meeting, Trump also directed government agencies to use the term “super intelligence” instead of “artificial intelligence” when referring to the technology.

An anonymous reader quotes a report from KrebsOnSecurity: Authorities in the Netherlands have arrested a 24-year-old convicted cybercriminal on suspicion of aiding in data thefts and extortions by the prolific hacker group ShinyHunters. In the days immediately following the suspect’s arrest, remaining ShinyHunters members dramatically escalated their attacks, stealing highly sensitive data from the FBI and extorting the Russian ransomware group Cl0p. According to three sources familiar with the matter, the Dutch man arrested by authorities this month is Pepijn van der Stap, a convicted cybercriminal from Almere and Lelystad in the Netherlands. Van der Stap was previously convicted in 2023 in connection with a string of data thefts and extortions that prosecutors said earned between 1.5 million euros and 2.7 million euros.
At his trial in late 2023, van der Stap admitted that he lived a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde existence, secretly using the hacker handle “Umbreon” to extort victims and post their data on English language hacking communities like the now-defunct RaidForums and Breached. By day, however, van der Stap was working as a software engineer at the Amsterdam-based cybersecurity startup Hadrian, while volunteering at the Dutch Institute for Vulnerability Disclosure (DIVD), a nonprofit security research group. Van der Stap confessed to his data theft and extortion activity, and was sentenced to four years in prison (one of which was suspended). Van der Stap had publicly presented himself as a “reformed hacker” after serving prison time for data theft and extortion. In a Sept. 9 interview, KrebsOnSecurity said he claimed he was trying “to turn his life around and make a positive contribution to society,” while working in offensive security and attempting to make amends to former victims.
