    Yakuza: Like a Dragon Confirmed for the PlayStation 5

    Confirmation comes after months of speculation.

    Today, Sega made some big reveals for Yakuza: Like a Dragon, the next main entry in the Yakuza franchise. While we knew for a while now that Yakuza: Like a Dragon was coming to the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and the Xbox Series X, we did not hear anything about a PlayStation 5 version. People began to speculate that maybe it was exclusive to the Xbox Series X for the next-generation.

It was already full of fun and exciting content that has just grown in size since its earliest days.

    Risk of Rain 2 is about to take the next major step in its development. On August 11, it will leave Early Access and...

    It is not clear what this really means.

    GOG announces that their GOG GALAXY 2.0 client now includes "official" support for Epic Games Store integration. It is not very clear what this means though since their cross-store client already supported games from the Epic Games Store.

    Metacritic Finally Does Away with Day One User Scores

    Perhaps done in an effort to suppress user score review bombing.

Tassi notes that user scores for the just released Ghost of Tsushima only has critical scores posted for the game. The user scores are currently showing a message that user reviews will be permitted starting July 18 at 12PM (PT).

That seems to be exactly what Microsoft and Asobo were thinking with the news today that Flight Simulator will include a third-party marketplace built into the game. This marketplace will allow for third-parties to sell and deliver add-on content directly to consumers.

  • Poll: Are You a Fan of Paying More to Play Early?
    by Shawn Zipay
    Get that Premium Edition and play three days early!

    Looks like the latest growing trend with game releases is to offer a more expensive Premium or Gold or whatever edition that grants you access to a game a few days ahead of its official release.

    Starfield did it with their $99.99 (USD) Premium Edition. Today, Payday 3 is doing an "Early Access" release with their Silver and Gold editions. Diablo 4 did the same thing earlier in the year, as did Madden NFL 24,...

    I think it's kind of dumb that people get to play earlier. Spending more shouldn't offer a "head start" on other paying customers.
