The game was originally a Switch exclusive when it launched in 2022, and it was published by Nintendo, but it's since launched on PC and Meta Quest. Now, Square Enix is listed as the publisher.This happened previously with the first Octopath Traveler, another HD-2D game that was a Switch exclusive before launching on other platforms. So, nothing surprising here!HD-2D is thriving right now after last year's excellent Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake. 2025 is set to deliver Dragon Quest I & II in the same style, too, so turn-based RPG fans have lots to look forward to.But if it's tactics you're after, then you can't really go wrong with Triangle Strategy on Switch.Will you be grabbing Triangle Strategy on Switch?

Qualcomm is making a move for the mid-range PC market with a new system-on-chip.At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Qualcomm unveiled Snapdragon X, the latest chip in its Snapdragon X Series of PC processors. The company claims that the chip, built on a 4nm fabrication process, delivers up to multi-day battery life and robust performance at an affordable price point.There are still a few software compatibility issues to be worked out with Windows on Qualcomms chip architecture. Still, that hasnt stopped the company from forging ahead with new processors in a bid to gain on rivals AMD and Intel. Qualcomm has a long way to go: According to one recent industry report, Qualcomm captured just 0.8% of the PC market in Q3 2024.The company said Snapdragon X will power a range of Copilot+ PCs, Microsofts Windows 11 machines with AI-powered tools and applications, set to launch in Q1 and priced at around $600. Packing Qualcomms Oryon CPU with 8 cores clocked up to 3GHz, Snapdragon X also has a neural processing unit (NPU), which supposedly accelerates AI workloads.Image Credits:QualcommOther highlights include Bluetooth 5.4 compatibility, support for Wi-Fi 7, and the ability to power up to three external UHD (4K) monitors running at 60Hz. PC manufacturers that adopt Qualcomms Snapdragon X Platform, a new hardware reference program, will also get additional tech such as Qualcomms A/V suite and proprietary image processing.Expect to see Snapdragon X in laptops from Acer, Asus, Dell, HP and Lenovo in the coming weeks.There are over 60 Copilot+ PC designs powered by Snapdragon now available or in development, Peter Burns, senior director of product marketing at Qualcomm, wrote in a blog post provided to TechCrunch last week. [And in] 2024, we saw a remarkable 3X increase in native Windows apps for Snapdragon.Snapdragon comes to desktopQualcomm last year abruptly canceled its Windows-based mini PC, but the company said during CES that itll help bring to market desktops powered by its Snapdragon X Series processors in 2025.A few of these desktops will come from Lenovo. The companys new ThinkCentre neo 50q QC, and IdeaCentre Mini x (1L, 10) both sport Snapdragon X Series processors, albeit different SKUs. The ThinkCentre neo 50q QC comes with the Snapdragon X Plus or Snapdragon X, depending on the configuration, while the IdeaCentre Mini x (1L, 10) has the Snapdragon X Plus.Lenovos new Snapdragon X-powered PCs.Image Credits:QualcommThe Snapdragon X Plus launched last spring, following the Snapdragon X Elite in October 2023. Qualcomm introduced a less powerful, cheaper variant of the X Plus in September. The all-new mini and tiny desktop PCs mark a significant milestone in our PC journey, Burns wrote. Developers building applications on Windows on Snapdragon desktops can now take advantage of new design options and unprecedented power efficiency, enabling them to create more efficient and powerful applications with NPU-accelerated features.

Agriculture, which consumes about 70% of global freshwater, is grappling with increased water scarcity and inefficient irrigation systems. Traditional methods of irrigation not only lead to wasted water and nutrients, but also contribute to lower crop yields, food insecurity, and unnecessary carbon emissions.Hong-Kong based agriculture technology startup Full Nature Farms thinks theres a better way. At CES 2025, the company launched its Rocket 2.0 Smart Irrigation Platform, a system that uses data and AI to create a 30% reduction in water costs, reduce energy consumption, and improve crop yields.CEO Ray Lok founded Full Nature Farms in 2019. Before that, he founded Evergreens Republic, a USDA-certified organic commercial aquaponics farm for sustainable farming that garnered attention from real estate developers and government offices seeking solutions for limited arable land.Used for vertical farming, open field farming, greenscaping and more, Rocket 2.0 is a standalone irrigation system that integrates sensors measuring crop yield, soil health, and climate with AI and weather forecasts to deliver precise, automated irrigation control on a schedule. The Rocket 2.0 promises to be a disruptive breakthrough in commercial farming operations, from landscaping and parks to community farms and vineyards.And it might have the capacity to actually scale based on Full Nature Farmss pricing structure. We offer farmers the opportunity to use our product through a subscription fee ranging from 10.00 to 20.00 USD per month per sensor, with no upfront costs, Lok told TechCrunch via email. This eliminates barriers to entry and allows us to provide a scalable and affordable smart irrigation solution for both farmers and operators.Rocket 2.0 Dashboard to control automated irrigation, monitor soil health, etc. Image Credits:Full Nature FarmsFull Nature Farms says its competitive advantage lies in its in-house developed tech ecosystem, which includes automation controllers and software, LED grow lights, precision grow pipes, a sensor stack, and an integrated farm management platform.The startup, which has raised roughly $4.5 million, has made a name for itself in its hometown of Hong Kong, where it uses smart agtech products to cultivate crops like edible flowers and microgreens for more than 100 Michelin-starred restaurants and hotel groups. Today, Full Nature Farmss products including its Eden 2.0 cultivation system with sensors, LED grow lights, and automated controls are being implemented across Hong Kong, Saudi Arabia, and the U.K., but the startup hopes to expand its presence to North America.At CES, it will be scouting for 30 local partners to test Rocket 2.0. Specifically, the Rocket 1.0 has been deployed for testing in Hong Kong since January 2024, and the startup has secured 12 projects in the city to be deployed in the first quarter of 2025. Full Nature Farms also has plans for pilot projects in Saudi Arabia, the Philippines, Australia, France, and China. Full Nature Farms debut of its latest agtech product earned it the CES 2025 Innovation Award in the Sustainability and Energy/Power category, and it comes as funding to the sector has seen a rebound from lows in 2023 and early 2024, per PitchBook data.This article was updated with more information from Full Nature Farms.

A steel frame dome that once housed industry in Shanghais West Bund Cultural Corridor is now a thriving cultural center. West Bund Cultural Corridor is already home to a handful of galleries, matched by a lengthy waterfront park thanks to a transformation headed by Schmidt Hammer Lassen (SHL). West Bund Dome Art Center adds to the areas dynamism; it delivers an additional 32,000 square feet of exhibition space to the corridor.From afar, red lighting inside West Bund Dome Art Center lights up the night sky with pulsating pinkish hues, rising up from the verdant park dotted by flowers of a similar color just beyond.The dome edges a verdant waterfront park. (Arlifa Wang/Courtesy SHL)SHL is no stranger to the West Bund Cultural Corridor; it first became active there in 2013 with Cloud Pavilion, the firms contribution to the 2013 West Bund Biennale of Architecture and Contemporary Arts.We were first invited to consider a future for the iconic dome structure back in 2013, Chris Hardie, principal and design director at SHL and Perkins&Will, said in a statement. For us there was never any doubt that it should be kept as a marker for the industrial significance of the site on Shanghai, Hardie continued. West Bund has always been a stage for art and exhibition, but this is expanding into the performing arts and sports. Creating a flexible, yet unique venue was always our goal.The domes interior was left open so it can host a multiplicity of uses. (Tian Fangfang/Courtesy SHL)West Bund Dome Art Centers signature feature is its circular multipurpose hall. This element is surrounded by flexible functional spaces, including a public foyer and second floor viewing gallery. The lower level facade is made of glass fiber reinforced concrete panels comprised of recycled glass aggregates and decorative panels. Reusing these low-carbon materials lends the project an iconic texture while also lowering the centers carbon footprint.Experimental art performance inside West Bund Dome Art Center (Tian Fangfang/Courtesy SHL)The renovation of historical buildings is inherently a process of reclaiming and repurposing space and structure, added Chao Chen, associate principal and project director at SHL and Perkins&Will. Therefore, our focus on material expression places special emphasis on innovative materials that align with the principles of recycling and regeneration, Chen elaborated. This approach aims to achieve comprehensive sustainability in the adaptive reuse projects.West Bund Dome Art Center is the latest new gallery to a bustling cultural corridor in Shanghai. (Tian Fangfang/Courtesy SHL)The project is part of the 2040 Shanghai Master Plan, which seeks to transform myriad former industrial areas in Shanghai to alternative uses.
