Relic Entertainment also sold off.
We are still at the point with games industry layoffs where we have multiple different announcements coming in the same day. Today, we have learned that Sega made layoffs at Sega Europe, Creative Assembly, and Hardlight. All told, there were approximately 240 employees laid off from these three studios, with only a "small number" of layoffs hitting Hardlight.
Despite the layoffs, Sega says Creative Assembly continues to "have...

Not all of Gearbox Entertainment is going to Take-Two, however. Embracer is holding on to the San Francisco... -

Battlefield 2042 Update 7.0.1 to Fix a Few Issues
Bug fixes are incoming.
The seventh season of Battlefield 2042 launched last week alongside Update 7.0.0. This week, DICE shared news of Update 7.0.1 that they hope to deploy on Tuesday, April 2nd.
This update is a minor one, as you can probably tell from the version number. It does include a few game breaking fixes for issues that were seemingly introduced as part of Update 7.0.0, but nothing particularly major is included in this new update.

Full Roster for Marvel Rivals
The Overwatch-esque Hero shooter was just revealed today.
If you liked Overwatch (let's ignore Overwatch 2) but thought it could do with a little dash of Marvel, then perhaps the newly announced Marvel Rivals (loud volume warning) is going to be right up your alley. NetEase's Marvel Rivals is an upcoming 6v6, third-person hero shooter that was revealed earlier today.
A closed alpha for Marvel Rivals will begin in May. It's coming to us from NetEase Games, with a team... -

V Rising Getting Castlevania Crossover Content
Simon Belmont is on the hunt.
When V Rising is out of Early Access on May 8, it will launch with some crossover content with Castlevania. The crossover content is called Legacy of Castlevania and while this will be out on May 8 for the PC release, PlayStation 5 owners will have to wait a while for V Rising to be released later this year on that platform.
The Legacy of Castlevania content will add Simon Belmont and a new weapon. This content will be free. There is also... -

Generation Zero Celebrates 5th Anniversary with Free Weapon Skins
Five years on and the game is still getting updated.
When Generation Zero released in 2019, it wasn't really all that great. The stealth-shooter had a lot of issues in all aspects of the game, making the stealth-action shooter rather mediocre at best. In these past five years, developer Systemic Reaction has worked continuously to update the game with fixes, improvements, and a bunch of new content. By most accounts, the current state of Generation Zero is quite good and a massive... -

You Can Use Trebuchets in Dragon's Dogma 2
Learning something new after 25 hours.
I am just shy of 25 hours of play time in Dragon's Dogma 2 (let's ignore the time spent trying to adjust all sorts of graphical options to make the game not run like garbage), and I am only now finding out about a new gameplay mechanic. Were you aware that you can use the various trebuchets you come across in Dragon's Dogma 2?
Sure, the usable ballista were probably rather obvious, especially given how you can see one used right... -

Bethesda Says Happy 30th Birthday to Elder Scrolls, Mentions Early Playable Builds of Elder Scrolls 6
Release is still probably a long way away though.
The Elder Scrolls series has turned 30 years old this year and Bethesda Game Studios took to social media to offer up some thoughts on these past three decades. The Elder Scrolls: Arena was the first title and came out back in 1994 for MS-DOS. Arena is still free to play through Steam, by the way. And while there hasn't been a new mainline release for the franchise since 2011's The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the series is as popular... -

Capcom is Adding a New Game Option for Dragon's Dogma 2
Framerate improvements won't be a part of this update.
Capcom says in the "near future" they will release an update for Dragon's Dogma 2 that adds in the ability to start a new game if save data already exists. To those not keeping up on the goings-on for Dragon's Dogma 2, the game released with the inability to easily start a new game if you already created a save. Dragon's Dogma 2 only allows for one save slot and that is it.

Production on Grand Theft Auto 6 Reportedly Falling Behind
Rockstar worries a delay is likely.
A new report out of Kotaku says that production on Grand Theft Auto 6 is falling behind at developer Rockstar Games. After being officially revealed at the end of 2023, Grand Theft Auto 6 was given a rather open release window of "2025."
Grand Theft Auto 6 was the focus of attention before it was ever even announced by Rockstar. Assets for the game were stolen from Rockstar Games as part of a huge leak in 2022. Even the game's... -

A beta for Path of Exile 2 was expected to be available to select participants in early June 2024. Specifically, Grinding Gear Games say that they wanted to get the beta out by June 7th. Sadly, fans eager for the next installment of their favorite action-RPG will have quite a bit longer to wait.
On Twitter, Grinding Gear Games said that while they think they would be able to get the beta's content ready in time for that deadline, they wouldn't...
