  Battlefield 2042 Player Count Hits New Milestone

  This milestone comes just five months after release.
  
  Player numbers for Battlefield 2042, at least those playing on Steam, have hit an all-new milestone today! Sadly, not all milestones are good. According to both SteamCharts and SteamDB, the concurrent player count for Battlefield 2042 fell below 1,000 players for the first time.
  
  SteamCharts showed as few as 979 players were on at once while SteamDB shows a slightly less grim count of 983 players.

  Sony Invests Another $1 Billion in Epic

  This comes a year after Sony invested $200 million.
  
  Last year, Sony invested $200 million (USD) into Epic Games. I could have sworn I put up a news post about this when it happened, but I cannot seem to find it at the moment, so you'll just have to trust me on this. Or you can just read the official release of that from April 13, 2021 via Epic Games.
  
  Almost one year later and Sony is again pouring money into Epic Games. This time, instead of $200 million the amount is...

  Elden Ring Surpasses 12 Million Copies Sold

  A new update from Bandai Namco.
  
  Elden Ring launched back on February 25, 2022 and it quickly became one of the best selling FromSoftware games. Hell, it quickly became one of the biggest hits of the past year just in its first month of release. Today, Bandai Namco announced that Elden Ring sales have surpassed 12 million units sold worldwide.
  
  Sure, these aren't exactly record-breaking numbers here, but it's still an incredibly impressive figure when you consider that FromSoftware's...

  Kingdom Hearts 4 Announced

  Just when you thought you had the plot all figured out.
  
  Kingdom Hearts 4 was officially announced this morning by Square Enix.
  
  You want to know how I found out? Well, I'm going to tell you anyway. It was a nice, lazy Sunday morning. There I was, lounging in my bed after having had a breakfast sandwich from Wendy's. They're like $1 each all through the month of April. Really good deal there. Anyway, I'm lounging in my bed while I had one of my favorite streamers being Chromecast...

  Halo Infinite Season 2 Launches May 3

  Oh no, I put the important bit in the headline.
  
  Well, this is awkward. I went and put the important information in the headline. That means you don't have to read the rest of this news post because you already know that Season 2 for Halo Infinite will be out on May 3.
  
  What can I do to fill this space now besides uselessly padding out this story so that I can get enough information in for the preview break? Oh, I know, I can let you know that there was also a new trailer...

  Tiny Tina's Wonderlands Review (PC)

  Ranks among the best of the Borderlands franchise.
  
  Right out of the gate, I must say that I would consider myself a fan of the Borderlands games. I have played through the first game about two times, the second game about three times, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel about 1.5 times, and Borderlands 3 at least once. I frankly cannot remember if I played through the third game twice, once solo and once with friends, or if I just played through it all once with friends. And really, the less...

  Official Formula 1 Game Shuts Down, Makes Worthless NFTs Even More Worthless

  NFTs were already worthless to begin with, am I right?
  
  An official Formula 1 racing game "powered" by NFTs and crypto, closed down last month. The game was F1 Delta Time and its closure spells bad news for those foolish enough to have spent even a penny on the ongoing scam that are NFTs.
  
  See, F1 Delta Time was one of the first officially licensed NFT games out in the wild. It closed down last month, specifically it closed on March 16, just one day after it...

  Two Point Campus Delayed

  You won't be able to build your own school until August.
  
  Some sad news today as word has come from Sega and Two Point Studios that Two Point Campus has been delayed. The goofy sim-style game has been pushed out of a May 17 release to August 9.
  
  The developer says that they "want to make sure that every single one of you gets the best quality game no matter what you're playing on." As such, the team needs some more time to optimize the game for all platforms....
