  Horizon, God of War, and Gran Turismo All Getting Television Shows

  Different shows for different services.
  
  Sony just announced that they are making TV adaptations of three major PlayStation franchises. Included in this is a TV series based on Horizon for Netflix, a God of War series for Amazon, and some sort of Gran Turismo series (not at all pictured above, unless...) going to a currently unannounced platform or network.
  
  These shows were revealed during Sony's latest investor briefing that took place earlier in the day on May 26. Sony...

  EA Suggest Holding 'Healing Circles' Instead of Taking Stance on Abortion Rights

  Another studio too cowardly to take a stand.
  
  Electronic Arts is taking quite the cowardly approach to how they are handling a woman's right to abortion and essential healthcare. During a company-wide town hall meeting on May 24, EA management told staff that it could not take a stance on this issue, saying that "being an inclusive company means being inclusive of all those points of view."
  
  That is one hell of a take.
  
  Given the timing of this town...

  Time Loops and Space Whales Added to No Man's Sky

  Latest expedition offers a chance to get your very own space whale.
  
  No Man's Sky "Leviathan" is the latest expedition to arrive for space adventurers. Leviathan adds in some interesting new game mechanics for players to work their way through, including a little time looping and space whales.
  
  I suppose technically, they aren't whales, but they are in space. They are alien leviathan creatures, but they have already been come to be seen as space whales by the community....

  Customizable Pronouns Added to The Sims 4

  Launched in English first.
  
  One of the more progressive game franchises out there just got a bit more progressive. An update has rolled out to The Sims 4 that now allows you to customize the pronouns applied to characters within the game. This is a change from the previous system that defaulted set pronouns to characters based on chosen body types.
  
  With today's update, players can now enter into the Create a Sim menu to choose from a couple of premade options such as They/Them....

  Daybreak Cancels Marvel MMO

  Funds will now move to several smaller projects instead of one big game.
  
  Last year, a Marvel MMO was announced to be in development at Daybreak Game Company. This is the same studio that made DC Universe Online which still continues to operate to my surprise.
  
  Daybreak's parent company, Enad Global 7, says that instead of dumping a ton of money into making one big game, they will instead spread that money out across several smaller projects. Some of these "smaller...

  Real Witcher School Has License Pulled by CD Projekt Red

  The alt-right might have something to do with it, because of course.
  
  There once existed a real Witcher school in Poland. I say "once" because the school had its license pulled by CD Projekt Red back in February. The reason for the license getting pulled may be due to one of the school's staff belonging to a prominent alt-right group.
  
  The Witcher school in question was named 5 Żywiołów, or 5 Elements. It began in 2015 and held roughly 40 events over...

  Is Overwatch 2 Doomed to Fail?

  Reinventing a service or game is never easy, whilst there are a few that have done it in the past, it’s often not something that turns out all that well. There’s a reason why many services have a certain formula and approach that they stick to and is proven to work. Many of the biggest genres like betting for example will seem familiar in how they operate and even in the bonuses as players can check BetMGM Registration code in Ontario for bonuses for example – operators won’t...

  To Nobody's Surprise Hazard Zone Support is Ending for Battlefield 2042

  This is the least shocking news ever.
  
  DICE announced that they are no longer going to support or release new content for the Hazard Zone mode in Battlefield 2042.
  
  Now, I know what you're thinking: "How could they end support for something that they never supported in the first place?" And you would be correct in asking that rhetorical question. What this essentially means is that DICE isn't going to convert any new maps into Hazard Zone variants. The mode will...

  These features were revealed both in a new PlayStation Blog post as well as a new trailer (seen below). Avalanche says that players will see "more flexibility in combat" thanks to the adaptive triggers in the...

  The sequel remake to the remake and reboot of a game that was remastered.
  
  Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will be released on October 28. This is the follow-up to the Call of Duty: Moden Warfare game that came out in 2019, which was a remake of a 2007 game which led to a direct sequel, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, in 2009. Got it? Good.
  
  Today's release date reveal included a weird video clip and what is possibly the cover art for the game. With a literal boatload of money...

  Well, sort of.
  
  Year 7 Season 2 for Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege will begin on June 7. When it arrives, it will feature a crossover with the Yakuza franchise that probably nobody saw coming.
  
  There will be exclusive bundles released for the Rainbow Six Operators Echo and Hibana that transform them into Kazuma Kiryu and Kaoru Sayama respectively. The end of the new trailer showcasing these skins offered up a tease of a possible third skin that sure as hell seems like Goro...
