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.

    Battlefield 2042 'Holiday Protocol' Event Starts Tomorrow

    Spread some holiday cheer with the help of a tank.

    With the holidays rapidly approaching, what better way to spend part of them than by engaging in a little virtual war with friends and loved ones. DICE seems to have that same idea because they're kicking off a new in-game event for Battlefield 2042 on December 12 that they're calling Holiday Protocol.

    This Holiday Protocol will run for four weeks (December 12, 2023 - January 9, 2024) and will feature four different...

    The Day Before Studio Announces Closure Mere Days After Releasing Game

    The studio outright lied about The Day Before.

    After "five years of blood, sweat, and tears," the studio behind The Day Before is calling it quits. Developer Fntastic, not to be confused with the word "fantastic," just announced that they are shuttering their entire studio.

    This closure announcement comes literally just four days after the studio released The Day Before into Steam Early Access.

    The Finals Released

    Another surprise drop during The Game Awards.

    The competitive shooter, The Finals, is now available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. The Finals is developed by Embark Studios, a group of developers that used to work on the Battlefield franchise back in the Levolution days. That probably explains why there is just so much environmental destruction in The Finals.

    The Finals is a free-to-play, team-based shooter. Players compete in virtual arenas based...

    Arkane is Making a Blade Game

    Arkane moves from one vampire slaying game to another.

    Arkane Lyon, alongside Marvel Games, announced that a new game based off of Blade is coming. Blade will be a third-person, single player title that is decidedly on the more mature side of the ratings scale.

    While the reveal was made at The Game Awards, there isn't much to go on here. Arkane Lyon has just started development on the game, so it's going to be a long while before it's ready to have more shown off. We...
