How to watch Devolver Direct at Summer Game Fest 2025
Devolver Digital is devoting its Summer Game Fest stream to a single title. That's quite the departure for the Austin-based publisher. So, the company must see something special in Ball x Pit: The Kenny Sun Story . Get ready to find out about it on June 6.
Devolver isn't being shy about its enthusiasm for Ball x Pit . The publisher says it's a game the team "can't even put down — hundreds of hours later." Sounds promising!
So, what do we know about the game and its titular character? Not much. There's the teaser image above, featuring battle skeletons and other fantasy characters. Also, Devolver called it "a tremendous little game."
Expect to learn much more about Ball x Pit on June 6 at 8 PM ET. You can tune into Devolver Direct on YouTube and Twitch. (That's the same broadcast as the Summer Game Fest Live and Day of the Devs livestreams.)

John Oliver Calls Attention To Air Traffic Control Crisis With FAA Ad Spoof Featuring Lil Rel Howery, Keyla Monterroso Mejia & H. Jon Benjamin
Back after the Memorial Day weekend break, John Oliver wasted no time soaring through a topic needing urgent attention: the air traffic control crisis that has been looming and ongoing for years due to lack of investment. Beginning Last Week Tonight, the host made a quip about a 2023 headline concerning a FedEx plane that nearly crashed into a Southwest airliner in Austin. More from Deadline Nathan Fielder Calls FAA "Very Dumb" Over Response To 'The Rehearsal' John Oliver Delivers The "Hot Take" WBD Was Expecting On HBO Max's Rebrand, Comparing It To Gulf Name Change: "F-- You, Don't Tell Me What To Do" Keyla Monterroso Mejia, Comedic Standout On Everything From 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' To 'The Studio', Signs With Artists First 'Well, that is terrifying! Planes should definitely not be landing on top of each other and I say that knowing that there is a nonzero chance Tom Cruise will hear me and immediately greenlight a new Mission: Impossible to do exactly that himself,' Oliver said. 'I am not saying that he is trying to die on camera, I'm just saying the only way Tom Cruise passes away peacefully in his bed is if the bed is being dropped into an active volcano to somehow save the 'live moviegoing experience.'' Throughout the episode, Oliver outlined how the U.S. history of aviation has led to the problem, saying, 'as with so many things on this show, at least some of the blame lies with Ronald Reagan,' pointing to the 11,000 air traffic controllers the late president fired amid a massive union strike — a number that was never quite recuperated. From the Federal Aviation Administration's designation as discretionary spending and not mandatory to low success and recruitment rates, Oliver remarked that the challenging nature of the role itself — and the lack of funding the field receives — is 'like Squid Game if the prize of Squid Game was to just keeping doing Squid Game as a job.' Thus the segment culminated in an ad spoofing a real FAA spot played earlier in the evening, featuring actors H. Jon Benjamin (Bob's Burgers), Lauren Adams (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt), Lil Rel Howery (Get Out) and Keyla Monterroso Mejia (The Studio) as beleaguered workers. What begins as a seemingly normal advert quickly descends into chaos as the staff deals with bats, bees and broken elevators (all real problems reported by air traffic controllers). 'My father was an air traffic controller, and I feel a real connection with him here at this job, especially because this is the exact same computer he used,' Benjamin's character remarks as he points to a sticker that reads 'Dukakis for President '88.' 'He had to retire because the doctor said he had more ulcer than stomach. What are you gonna do?' Meanwhile, in a moment parodying the real technology lag in control towers, Mejia's young worker is shown confused when faced with a floppy disk, opting to put it into the toaster. 'It's a lot like a video game, except we can never hit pause, there are no extra lives and instead of NPCs, it's you and your loved ones,' her character says. As the filming of the parody gets interrupted by power outages ('Dave, one flush, we talked about this!' Benjamin yells out to Howery's character), Mejia's plea to her colleagues to return from a photo op — 'I'm juggling like seven f—ing flights' — ends the sketch. Best of Deadline Sean 'Diddy' Combs Sex-Trafficking Trial Updates: Cassie Ventura's Testimony, $10M Hotel Settlement, Drugs, Violence, & The Feds 'Poker Face' Season 2 Guest Stars: From Katie Holmes To Simon Hellberg 2025-26 Awards Season Calendar: Dates For Tonys, Emmys, Oscars & More

If you're craving something lighter, "Love Island" season 7 serves up another round of sun-soaked hookups. And keep an eye on "Stick," a new series that's giving major "Ted Lasso" vibes. Here are our top picks for new TV shows to watch this week. Turn up the romance dial to 'sizzling' because new singles are moving into the 'Love Island' villa and are ready to mingle.

Owen Wilson stars as Pryce 'Stick' Cahill, a washed-up pro turned reluctant mentor to a 17-year-old phenom with a monster drive and a chip on his shoulder. Created by Jason Keller, the comedy is equal parts heart and hilarity, with real-life golf stars and YouTube favorites popping in for cameos. And Wilson looks in peak form: charmingly laid-back, scruffy and just earnest enough to make you care Episodes 1-3 premiere Wednesday, June 4 at 12 a.m. ET on Apple TV Plus Shaq has moved from bossing on the court to off of it.

Season 2 finds Will (Steven Gerben) and Shane (Gillis) riding high after their tire-selling stunt actually worked, sort of. Now they're trying to grow the business (and themselves), but mostly just making a bigger mess. Shane's dad (Thomas Haden Church) shows up, Vince Vaughn drops in and Will is still one anxiety attack away from imploding. There's sexual harassment training and at least one very awkward romance.
