Today, Microsoft is laying off 2.1% of its workforce. This equates to 4,800 people that are being let go. The company's XBOX division is cutting about 20% of its entire workforce. All of this is being done in an effort to cut costs due to rising prices and expenses brought about by artificial intelligence (AI).
Starting January 2028, Sony will no longer produce physical discs for new PlayStation game releases. All games released in January 2028 and after will be available only through digital stores such as the PlayStation Store.
Sony attempts to justify this move by claiming it's a "natural direction" in order to "adapt to consumer trends as the general preference for digital media significantly outpaces physical discs."...

This is Diablo 4 at its best. I mean it this time. For real.
Returning to the world of Sanctuary for this latest chapter feels like a true homecoming for those of us who have spent hundreds of hours traversing its dark and unforgiving landscapes since the base game launched back in 2023. The release of the Lord of Hatred expansion marks a significant step forward in the narrative that was originally set in motion during the initial campaign and furthered by the events of the Vesse...

Remasters of Red Dead Redemption and GTA 4 Allegedly Canned by Rockstar
The decision was made based on the poor reception to the GTA Trilogy remasters.
This past weekend, Kotaku shared word that Rockstar Games cancelled plans to remake or remaster games like Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto 4 to focus on working on Grand Theft Auto 6. Apparently, this decision was made by Rockstar after the poor reception and disastrous launch of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition.
Next Battlefield Might Bring Back the Single Player Campaign
A job listing could hint at the return of the Battlefield campaign.
A new job listing was recently spotted over the past weekend. According to said job listing, Battlefield Seattle Studio is looking for a design director that will "manage the design team and design vision of a new Battlefield campaign."
This "Battlefield Seattle Studio" seems to be the studio being formed by Marcus Lehto. In December 2021, we learned that Lehto was forming a new st...
DICE just detailed what is coming in the 1.1 update for Battlefield 2042. Rather, it's Update #1.1.0, just so we're super clear on this because those previous update versions were needlessly confusing.
The 1.1.0 update will drop on July 6 and is the first update since the launch of Season 1 for Battlefield 2042. Some of the notable changes and fixes in this update include some new XP events for pilot kills, disarming mines,...
The latest video for the upcoming Skate game shows off some very early gameplay footage. How early? Very. The footage says that what is being shown off is from a pre-pre-pre-alpha stage of development. Also, I guess this video confirms that the game will be simply called Skate (stylized as skate.) instead of Skate 4.
Despite this early stage of development, the team wanted to show everyone what they've been up to since the game was...
Sucker Punch Confirms That Sly Cooper and Infamous Games Not in Development
It's like a studio confirming that they're working on a new game, but the opposite.
Sucker Punch, the studio behind iconic franchises like Sly Cooper, Infamous, and the more recently released Ghost of Tsushima, is busy working on their next game. While we may not know yet what that next game is, we do know what it isn't.
As the studio's 25th anniversary approaches, Sucker Punch took to their site to provide a little look back on their legacy and to flatly say that they...
Codemasters, now flying under the Electronic Arts flag, just launched EA Sports F1 22 today. This is "the official game of the 2022 FIA Formula One World Championship." If you know, you know. If you don't, then you're totally in good company. Today's release has hit the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Origin and Steam.
EA says that this year's game "includes new revolutionary...
XIII is a cel-shaded first-person shooter that first came out in 2003. Since then, the game pulled in a fair number of fans and supporters. The game had (at least at the time) a unique visual style, a comic-book style presentation, and none other than David Duchovny voiced the main character. There was a lot to love there.
In 2019, Microids announced that XIII was getting a remake. Fans were happy up until the remake was released. Then they were...
The big expansion for the not-a-games-as-a-service game from People Can Fly is out now.
Square Enix and People Can Fly released Outriders Worldslayer today, marking the release of the first major expansion for the game that is more looter-shooter and less Destiny.

Players will maintain control of their character while flying through the air. They...
Halo Infinite Multiplayer's Desync Issue Won't be Fixed
343 Industries says that the devs who would fix it are working on other things.
An issue that has plagued Halo Infinite's multiplayer mode may not get fixed any time soon, or possibly at all. At seemingly random times, there will be some synchronization issues in multiplayer that lead to situations where melee attacks just flat out don't register. The client and server each think that the players are in different positions than what the player sees on their screen.
343 Industries provides a fresh look at the co-op experience coming soon-ish.
For fans of Halo co-op experiences, the omission of the feature from Halo Infinite's launch did not go unnoticed. Developer 343 Industries said that network campaign co-op would come after launch and well, they seem to be sticking to that statement. Today, the studio shared some new information about Halo Infinite's campaign co-op experience.
First off, the feature will enter into the testing...
Another video to again try to make sense of just what Redfall is and is not.
Earlier in June, Arkane showed off some new Redfall gameplay footage during the Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase event. It seems as though the marketing for the game hasn't yet clearly conveyed to players what exactly the game is all about.
Parts of Half-Life 2 Are Playable in Portal on Switch
There's always more than meets the eye when it comes to Portal.
It was only a day ago when Valve released Portal: The Companion Collection on the Nintendo Switch. This compilation of both Portal and Portal 2 offered Switch owners a chance to play these classics for the first time on a Nintendo product.
It took less than a day of availability before people found out that significant chunks of Half-Life 2 were tucked neatly away in the files for Portal. The discovery was...

Was 2025 a big year for game completions for you, or were you more of a "stick to one never-ending, live-service game for the entire year" sort of player?
For this, you can take whatever definition you want as a game "completion." Beat the main story? Earned 100% of the game's achievements? Or simply played enough that you're satisfied with what you accomplished and have no plans to return any time...
