Slash command trigger:
Keyword auto-trigger:
- "게임 뉴스", "게임 소식", "요즘 게임 뭐 나왔어?", "최신 게임 소식"

- Any question about new game releases, gaming industry news, or console news
News sources
The following gaming outlets are checked in this priority order. Each source has a distinct focus — use the source best suited to the user's interest, or aggregate across multiple:
| # | Outlet | RSS Feed URL | Focus |
|---|
| 1 | IGN | https://feeds.ign.com/ign/all | Broad coverage: games, movies, TV |
| 2 | Kotaku | https://kotaku.com/rss | News, culture, opinion |
| 3 | GameSpot | https://www.gamespot.com/feeds/mashup/ | Reviews, news, all platforms |
| 4 | Polygon | https://www.polygon.com/rss/index.xml | Culture, features, reviews |
| 5 | Eurogamer | https://eurogamer.net/feed | European perspective, Digital Foundry tech analysis |
| 6 | Rock Paper Shotgun | https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/feed | PC gaming focus |
| 7 | VG247 | https://vg247.com/feed | Breaking news, all platforms |
| 8 | Gematsu | https://gematsu.com/feed | Japan / Asian game focus |
| 9 | PlayStation Blog | https://blog.playstation.com/feed | Official Sony/PS announcements |
How to fetch news
Default behavior (no specific source requested)
Fetch the top 3 sources simultaneously (IGN, Kotaku, VG247) and aggregate results. Deduplicate stories that appear across multiple sources — if the same event is covered by 2+ outlets, mention it once but note "IGN, Kotaku 등 다수 보도".
When user specifies a platform or interest
- PlayStation / Sony news → prioritize PlayStation Blog + IGN + Kotaku
- PC gaming → prioritize Rock Paper Shotgun + Polygon + GameSpot
- Japanese games / anime games → prioritize Gematsu
- Industry / business news → prioritize Eurogamer + VG247
- Reviews → prioritize GameSpot + Polygon + Eurogamer
Feed parsing
From each RSS feed, extract per article:
- Title:
<title>
- URL:
<link> or <link href="...">
- Date:
<pubDate> or <published> or <updated>
- Excerpt:
<description> or <summary> (first 200 chars if full content included)
Show up to 5 stories total by default. If user asks for more, show up to 10.
Fetching full article content (on demand)
If the user asks for a deeper summary of a specific story, fetch the article URL and extract the main content from <article> or <main> tags.
Output format

Rules:
- Match the user's language (Korean ↔ English)
- Lead with the most significant or surprising stories first
- For release announcements: include platform and release date if mentioned
- For reviews: include the score if present in the excerpt
- Keep each summary factual — do not add opinions not present in the source
Error handling
