Daily Recap

Thursday, 25 June 2026

Entertainment today is a study in big swings: blockbuster hype, corporate fallout, and comeback energy. Rockstar has finally put firm numbers on Grand Theft Auto VI, confirming a $79.99 standard edition and a $99.99 Ultimate package, with pre-orders opening at midnight local time ahead of the game’s November launch. The pricing underscores how confidently publishers believe fans will pay for premium franchises. In television, meanwhile, Nine is reportedly moving Karl Stefanovic off Today after intense internal discussions sparked by his Tommy Robinson podcast interview, a controversy that could reshape the network’s breakfast strategy and audience balance. Outside the screen wars, Phoebe Bridgers has given fans a very different kind of headline, announcing her long-awaited third solo album, Lost Weekend, due August 14, ending a six-year solo gap. Even the auto world joined the entertainment cycle, with Jeff Bezos-backed Slate debuting a budget-minded electric pickup at $24,950.
