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...

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 ...

  • Knockout City Splits from EA, Goes Free-to-Play

    Knockout City Splits from EA, Goes Free-to-Play

    A re-launch of the "dodgebrawl" game comes with some big changes.

    Last year, EA and developer Velan Studios launched Knockout City. This rather intense take on the sport of dodgeball was pretty great, but the fact that it came with a price tag meant that it was leaving a lot of potential players on the table. The price was, undoubtedly, left up to publisher EA and they decided that a full free-to-play experience wasn't going to cut it.

    Well, EA is apparently...

  • Euro Truck Simulator 2's Russia DLC Indefinitely Postponed

    Euro Truck Simulator 2's Russia DLC Indefinitely Postponed

    I think we all know why.

    Euro Truck Simulator 2 developer SCS Software says that the Heart of Russia DLC that they have been working on is now postponed indefinitely. The studio was working on bringing a large drivable version of Russia into the sim long before Russia invaded Ukraine. As of late February, the team says they were about 6-8 weeks out from completion of this new content.

    The studio released a statement explaining their decision, though it probably needs no...

    Destroy All Humans 2 Remaster Release Date Set for August 30

    Plus, a standalone spin-off release is available now.

    Good news for those that like probing and/or being probed: Destroy All Humans 2: Reprobed now has a release date. The date in which this remaster of the classic action title will be out is none other than August 30. That date doesn't hold any significance, I just wanted to phrase that sentence like that.

    You can currently pre-order Destroy All Human 2: Reprobed for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Those of...

    Xbox Games with Gold for June 2022

    Presumably an $85 value here.

    As Game Pass continues to be one of the best deals in gaming, Xbox Live Gold continues to spiral downwards. Well, at least as far as the "free" monthly Game Pass titles are concerned. The games for June 2022 were revealed by Xbox Wire and while they total nearly $85 if purchased separately, you may not personally see the same value here.

    There are again four games being offered in June. They are all presumably playable on Xbox One...

    First Sonic Frontiers Gameplay Reveal

    The new open-world Sonic title is coming this year.

    Last year, Sega officially announced a new, open-world Sonic the Hedgehog title during The Game Awards. We weren't provided much in the way of new information then and the same kind of holds true today for Sonic Frontiers.

    Admittedly, today's new video does show off a tiny bit of gameplay, but not much. The entire trailer is only about 38 seconds long. However, more is promised to be revealed through IGN and their IGN...

First off, they note that the vampire survival game has sold over one million copies since its release into Early Access on May 17. The game has been a surprise success for the developer, so much so that the team really isn't sure yet what they're doing in the longer term for the game.
