Ubisoft Confirms Return to Steam with Assassin's Creed Valhalla

Ubisoft to return to Steam's "unrealistic" distribution model.

Ubisoft is returning to Steam after they took their ball and went home about two years ago. In 2019, Ubisoft decided to stop releasing their games through Steam, instead opting to sell their PC releases exclusively through Ubisoft Connect (formerly Uplay) and the Epic Games Store. In the same year, Ubisoft vice president for partnerships and revenues, Chris Early, said that Steam's distribution model was "unrealistic."...

    Steam's Big Autumn Sale is Now Live

    I'm seeing games at 50%, 75%, and even 90% off during this sale.

    How would you like to pick up the classic version of XIII for about the cost of a big fountain drink? You can do that right now, because XIII is only $1.49 (USD) during the Steam Autumn Sale.

    Call of Duty Players Discover a Lot of Really Broken Movement Tech

    Players are running around like the Fast Zombies from Half-Life 2.

    Every new Call of Duty release brings with it new experiences, new content, and new exploits to discover. The most recently released Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 are certainly no exceptions. With a player base that could easily be several million large, due to strong sales and the freely offered Warzone 2.0, it almost seems inevitable that some fresh exploits would be discovered.

    Microsoft Offers Sony a 10 Year Deal to Keep Call of Duty on PlayStation

    The reveal comes as the Microsoft-Activision deal faces harsh scrutiny.

    The $69 billion (USD) deal that would see Microsoft acquire Activision Blizzard is still very much the focus of intense scrutiny from several of the world's regulation authorities. Apparently, one of the big issues that this regulators have is with the idea that Microsoft will pull several long-running multi-platform titles from those non-Microsoft platforms. Obviously, the Call of Duty franchise is one of the...

    Rockstar gives a non-legally binding blessing to GTA roleplay servers, but takes a hard stance against NFTs.

    As part of their remarks, Rockstar seems to have given their blessing for those popular third-party roleplay servers to keep existing within GTA Online. It is in these servers where people "roleplay"...

    Risen is Coming to PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch

    The classic (and difficult) RPG is coming to several modern platforms.

    THQ Nordic says that the classic RPG Risen is coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch on January 24, 2023. This action-RPG dates back to 2009 when it was first released on PC and the Xbox 360 and is a damn fine RPG that doesn't shy away from being brutally difficult at times. The Risen titles are essentially the spiritual successor to the equally difficult Gothic franchise.

    Ubisoft Shares Very Early Look at Splinter Cell Remake

    This is all you're going to get for a long while.

    Ubisoft shared the first tiniest glimpse of the upcoming Splinter Cell remake today as part of a 20th anniversary celebration of the stealth-action franchise. When I say "tiniest glimpse" I really mean it here because all that we were shown are a few pieces of concept art for the game that is probably still a couple of years away from release.

    The image was accompanied by a statement from creative director Chris...
