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...

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. 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 ...
 

Embracer Lays Off 97 Employees from Eidos; Cancels New Deus Ex

Embracer's rampage continues.

Eidos-Montreal, a development studio currently under the Embracer umbrella, made the sad announcement that employees at the studio were being laid off. Eidos took to social media to confirm that 97 people have been let go "from development teams, administration, and support services".

    Huge New Fallout: New Vegas Mod, The Frontier, is Out Now

    It's like a whole new game.

    A new mod for Fallout: New Vegas, called The Frontier, is now available for public download. This mod has been in development for several years from a dedicated team. This is far more than a simple mod that adds in a few quests and characters. It's almost as if you are playing an entirely new game.

    The Frontier is set in Portland, Oregon and features a map size that is roughly the same size as the Mojave from New Vegas. This map is almost as...

    Recreating Reality with Project: Mara

    Ninja Theory is cooking up some photorealistic recreations.

    Besides working on Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, Ninja Theory has been busy working on something they're calling Project: Mara. You may have already seen some of their behind-the-scenes videos for Project: Mara but you ain't seen anything like today's episode.

    In this third episode of The Dreadnought Diaries, Ninja Theory shows off what it takes to capture reality and turn it into a digital environment. The team...

    Hitman 3 is about to be launched on January 20 for the Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Google Stadia, and PC exclusively through the Epic Games Store (affiliate link).

    The evolution of Slots symbols


    In a world of digital natives, so reliant on the latest technology, it’s almost hard to believe that Slots originated back in 1891. They’ve not been around quite as long as classic card games, but during that time, Slots have evolved massively – and it’s in the casino online that they’ve truly made their mark.

    But they’ve evolved in more ways than one. Not only have developers upgraded their offering to include a wide range of themes,...

    iGaming Affiliate Registers Crypto Business


    According to Leo Twin, CEO and founder of GamblersPro.com, 2021 is the midway point of the traditional 4-year Bitcoin cycle and we are about to witness online cryptocurrency gambling enter the mainstream. The online gambling affiliate is about to make a big statement in the cryptocurrency world and with online gambling being one of the first industries to truly accept cryptocurrencies, it makes sense to make the move now.

    If there is one thing online casino players cannot stand,...

    Source 2 Engine Might Get RTX Support Soon

    Ray tracing support mentioned in Artifact's game files.

    Valve recently made an update to their digital card game Artifact. That isn't the big news here, what is the big news is that hidden within the files were a couple of references to RTX and real-time ray tracing. This marks the first time that any sort of ray tracing support was noticed in any of Valve's Source 2 files.

    The mentions were first discovered by SteamDB creator Pavel Djundik. Djundik noticed that the latest...

    Hitman 3 on Epic Games Store Won't Import Steam Levels

    This is contrary to what IO said in the past.

    Previously, it was "known" that the levels from both Hitman and Hitman 2 would be able to be imported to Hitman 3. It was said previously by IO Interactive that players would be able to import content from their Steam versions of the first two games to be used in the Epic Games Store exclusive Hitman 3 (affiliate link). This simply meant that for no extra charge you would be able to import the maps from the first two titles into...

    New Persona 5 Strikers Trailer is All-Out-Action

    All. Out. Action.

    A new trailer was just released today for Persona 5 Strikers. This new trailer is entitled "All-Out-Action" and I'm willing to bet there is a significant amount of action included in the trailer itself.

    Persona 5 Strikers is coming out on the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam on February 23. Those that pre-order the Digital Deluxe Edition now will get access to the game a whopping four days earlier on February 19.

    Samurai Shodown is already available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Stadia, and PC via the Epic Games Store (affiliate link). Where it isn't yet available is the next-gen consoles. That's about to start changing very soon with the release of Samurai Shodown on the Xbox Series X|S. The release date for this version is March 16, 2021.

    A physical release is also going to happen on this date in North and South America. This release will...

    Hitman 3 on Switch Releases on January 20

    Day and date with the other platforms.

    For every news post we put up about Hitman 3, it was apparently assumed that the game would be released on the Nintendo Switch at the same time as the other platforms. That was our mistake and it's one that we are happy to announce is actually true. IO Interactive confirmed today that the Nintendo Switch release of Hitman 3 will take place on January 20.

    This is the same date as the PlayStation, Xbox, and PC via the Epic Games St...

    Battle.net Gets a Fresh Visual Makeover

    Different? Yes. Nicer? That's up to you to decide.

    Chances are, if you have played a Blizzard or Activision title in the past few years, you have done so through the Battle.net launcher game client of theirs. This hub for all things Blizzard has been more or less the same for about the past eight or so years now. However, that all is starting to change today with the launch of Battle.net 2.0.

    It is a fairly drastic change for the client, especially if you have gotten used...

    Outriders System Requirements are Quite Lenient

    Latest trailer focuses on PC specific features.

    A PC-focused trailer was released today for the upcoming sci-fi co-op shooter, Outriders. We have talked about the game itself at some length prior to today, which you can check out here if you desire. Instead, today is all about the PC specific features and the system requirements for the game. Basically, if you have a machine released in the past half decade or so, you should be perfectly fine with running Outriders.
