Ubisoft Pulls Licenses for The Crew, Makes the Game Completely Inaccessible to Buyers

From the same company trying to sell you a $130 version of Star Wars Outlaws.

From announcing a $130 edition of Star Wars Outlaws to pulling game licenses from those that bought The Crew, Ubisoft sure is on a roll this week.

The Crew was Ubisoft's open-world racing game that was pulled from sale back in December 2023. As of March 31, 2024, Ubisoft shut down the online servers for The Crew. This effectively made the game unplayable across all platforms, including: PC,...
 

Tim Sweeney Called Valve 'Assholes' in Email to Gabe Newell, Valve COO Says 'You Mad Bro?'

Tim Sweeney is always mad.

The antitrust lawsuit against Valve from Wolfire Games got a little spicy this week. To quickly get you up to speed: Wolfire claims that Valve uses its position with Steam to control game prices and muscle out competition. Though the initial lawsuit against Valve was dismissed, Wolfire amended their suit in May 2022 and the legal battle was back on.

It may have taken almost two years, but we are now starting to see some of the documents that...

Xbox Confirms PlayStation 5 Releases, Diablo 4 on Game Pass, and Future Hardware Plans

No, Starfield and Indiana Jones are not going multi-platform any time soon.

The heads of Xbox stayed true to their word and were indeed a part of a special edition of the Official Xbox Podcast. During today's pre-recorded podcast and subsequent blog post, head of Xbox Phil Spencer stated that four Xbox exclusives are going to be multi-platform releases. Is it Starfield? Indiana Jones? Gears of War? Halo?! No, no, no, and no. Though Spencer did not specify what those four titles ...
 

Embracer Lays Off 97 Employees from Eidos; Cancels New Deus Ex

Eidos-Montreal, a development studio currently under the Embracer umbrella, made the sad announcement that employees at the studio were being laid off. Eidos took to social media to confirm that 97 people have been let go "from development teams, administration, and support services".

The studio says that "global economic context, the challenges of our industry, and the comprehensive restructuring announced by Embracer have...

  • Big Changes Coming to Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Remaster

    Big Changes Coming to Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Remaster

    Square Enix talks about some of the changes that make this more than just a remaster.

    This past June, Square Enix announced that they are working on a remaster for Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII that Square Enix is calling Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII- Reunion. Details were quite scarce at the time of the announcement besides the fact that Square is bringing this once PSP exclusive to the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PC.

    It does...

  • Remasters of Red Dead Redemption and GTA 4 Allegedly Canned by Rockstar

    Remasters of Red Dead Redemption and GTA 4 Allegedly Canned by Rockstar

    The decision was made based on the poor reception to the GTA Trilogy remasters.

    This past weekend, Kotaku shared word that Rockstar Games cancelled plans to remake or remaster games like Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto 4 to focus on working on Grand Theft Auto 6. Apparently, this decision was made by Rockstar after the poor reception and disastrous launch of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition.

    A few years ago, Rockstar Games was apparently...

    Next Battlefield Might Bring Back the Single Player Campaign

    A job listing could hint at the return of the Battlefield campaign.

    A new job listing was recently spotted over the past weekend. According to said job listing, Battlefield Seattle Studio is looking for a design director that will "manage the design team and design vision of a new Battlefield campaign."

    This "Battlefield Seattle Studio" seems to be the studio being formed by Marcus Lehto. In December 2021, we learned that Lehto was forming a new st...

  • Battlefield 2042 Update 1.1 Patch Notes

    Battlefield 2042 Update 1.1 Patch Notes

    The first update for Season 1 drops on July 6.

    DICE just detailed what is coming in the 1.1 update for Battlefield 2042. Rather, it's Update #1.1.0, just so we're super clear on this because those previous update versions were needlessly confusing.

    The 1.1.0 update will drop on July 6 and is the first update since the launch of Season 1 for Battlefield 2042. Some of the notable changes and fixes in this update include some new XP events for pilot kills, disarming mines,...

  • EA Shows Off Pre-pre-pre-alpha Skate Gameplay

    EA Shows Off Pre-pre-pre-alpha Skate Gameplay

    Closed beta registrations are now open.

    The latest video for the upcoming Skate game shows off some very early gameplay footage. How early? Very. The footage says that what is being shown off is from a pre-pre-pre-alpha stage of development. Also, I guess this video confirms that the game will be simply called Skate (stylized as skate.) instead of Skate 4.

    Despite this early stage of development, the team wanted to show everyone what they've been up to since the game was...

  • Sucker Punch Confirms That Sly Cooper and Infamous Games Not in Development

    Sucker Punch Confirms That Sly Cooper and Infamous Games Not in Development

    It's like a studio confirming that they're working on a new game, but the opposite.

    Sucker Punch, the studio behind iconic franchises like Sly Cooper, Infamous, and the more recently released Ghost of Tsushima, is busy working on their next game. While we may not know yet what that next game is, we do know what it isn't.

    As the studio's 25th anniversary approaches, Sucker Punch took to their site to provide a little look back on their legacy and to flatly say that they...

    Codemasters, now flying under the Electronic Arts flag, just launched EA Sports F1 22 today. This is "the official game of the 2022 FIA Formula One World Championship." If you know, you know.

    EA says that this year's game "includes new revolutionary...

  • XIII Remake is Being Remade

    XIII Remake is Being Remade

    Once more, with feeling.

    XIII is a cel-shaded first-person shooter that first came out in 2003. Since then, the game pulled in a fair number of fans and supporters. The game had (at least at the time) a unique visual style, a comic-book style presentation, and none other than David Duchovny voiced the main character. There was a lot to love there.

    In 2019, Microids announced that XIII was getting a remake. Fans were happy up until the remake was released. Then they were...

    Outriders Worldslayer Expansion Out Now

    The big expansion for the not-a-games-as-a-service game from People Can Fly is out now.

    Square Enix and People Can Fly released Outriders Worldslayer today, marking the release of the first major expansion for the game that is more looter-shooter and less Destiny.

    Worldslayer adds in new story content that will find players traveling across the planet of Enoch and fighting all sorts of nasties. There are obviously new story missions, new places to explore, the endgame...

    Race, crash, and fling yourself to victory.

    THQ Nordic just announced Stuntfest - World Tour today, a game where 18 players race, crash, destroy, and fling themselves around with an ejection button. The goal of Stuntfest is to win a festival by turning your driver into a living bullet. Players will eject themselves from their vehicles and fly "hundreds of meters through the air."

    Players will maintain control of their character while flying through the air. They...

  • Halo Infinite Multiplayer's Desync Issue Won't be Fixed

    Halo Infinite Multiplayer's Desync Issue Won't be Fixed

    343 Industries says that the devs who would fix it are working on other things.

    An issue that has plagued Halo Infinite's multiplayer mode may not get fixed any time soon, or possibly at all. At seemingly random times, there will be some synchronization issues in multiplayer that lead to situations where melee attacks just flat out don't register. The client and server each think that the players are in different positions than what the player sees on their screen.

    Halo Infinite Campaign Co-op Preview

    343 Industries provides a fresh look at the co-op experience coming soon-ish.

    For fans of Halo co-op experiences, the omission of the feature from Halo Infinite's launch did not go unnoticed. Developer 343 Industries said that network campaign co-op would come after launch and well, they seem to be sticking to that statement. Today, the studio shared some new information about Halo Infinite's campaign co-op experience.

    First off, the feature will enter into the testing...

    Arkane Offers a More Focused Look at Redfall

    Another video to again try to make sense of just what Redfall is and is not.

    Earlier in June, Arkane showed off some new Redfall gameplay footage during the Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase event. It seems as though the marketing for the game hasn't yet clearly conveyed to players what exactly the game is all about.

    For instance, despite all prior marketing talking about Redfall's co-op experience, we learned that only the host of a game will make progress in the campaign....

    Parts of Half-Life 2 Are Playable in Portal on Switch

    There's always more than meets the eye when it comes to Portal.

    It was only a day ago when Valve released Portal: The Companion Collection on the Nintendo Switch. This compilation of both Portal and Portal 2 offered Switch owners a chance to play these classics for the first time on a Nintendo product.

    It took less than a day of availability before people found out that significant chunks of Half-Life 2 were tucked neatly away in the files for Portal. The discovery was...
