Preloads for Grand Theft Auto 6 have begun in New Zealand, and players are examining encrypted game files for clues.

Other files point to support for BVH8, a technology that can improve ray tracing on PS5 Pro, and Sony has confirmed PS5 Pro Enhanced Support for the game.

A 14-person study found lasting benefits from baxdrostat, a drug tested in people with a hormone-related cause of high blood pressure.

The condition, called primary aldosteronism, occurs when the adrenal glands make too much aldosterone, which causes the kidneys to retain salt.

Baxdrostat blocks the production of aldosterone, and participants took it daily for six to 12 months before stopping.

Up to two years later, a marker of excess aldosterone was 99 per cent lower than before treatment.
