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'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".

According to Sams, Microsoft will show off a demo for Halo Infinite during their E3 presentation this weekend. The demo will be played on a PC but with an Xbox One controller.

    Shenmue 3 Delayed Until November 2019

    It's now coming just two weeks after Death Stranding.

    Shenmue III has officially been given a three month delay. This news comes courtesy of a Yu Suzuki update to the official Shenmue III Kickstarter page. The game was originally slated to drop on August 27, 2019 but has now been pushed back until November 19, 2019.

    This now places the game just two weeks after the release of Death Stranding and just four days after Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. I'm sure there will be...

    Watch Dogs 3 'Legion' Leak - London Setting, Play as Anybody ala 'MindJack'

    Let's get these E3 2019 rumors starting off strong.

    In 2011 a game was released wherein the main character could "hack" into
    the minds of any other character and take control of them. The game was called MindJack (pictured above) and, in addition to the unique mind hacking, the game also featured a single-player story that could "transition seamlessly" into co-op. It wasn't all that well received.

    Fast-forward to the present and a hot pre-E3...

    EA Shares E3 Streaming Schedule

    Keynotes are so last year.

    EA not holding their annual E3 press conference for this year's event was known for quite some time now. In its place, the company has decided instead to have a long series of streams featuring various games that are coming out or that are already out.

    Today, the official schedule for these streams was revealed by the official EA Star Wars account. This is presumably because Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is the game that will kick off the event,...

    Buy from wherever and play together.

This means that you and your friends can purchase the game from whichever store you want to and you'll be able to play together.

    Mortal Kombat 11 Kombat Pack - Shang Tsung Gameplay; Spawn and Others Announced

    Your soul is his!

    Mortal Kombat 11 has already bestowed upon us the best Shang Tsung in the franchise's history. A big part of this is due to the fact that they brought back Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, the actor that portrayed the shape-shifting Tsung in the original Mortal Kombat film. I'm not going to lie: Hearing his voice again and seeing his likeness as he guided me through the Krypt was a real treat.

    Now, Shang Tsung is letting loose and getting back into the swing of...

    'Next Chapter of Destiny 2' to be Revealed Next Week

    Looks like more Destiny 2 is coming after Season of Opulence.

    On June 4, Bungie will kick off the Season of Opulence for Destiny 2. This was the last piece of confirmed content for the second season pass for Destiny 2, leaving the future of the game and the franchise as a bit of a mystery. What was going to come after the Season of Opulence? Would Bungie keep making content for Destiny 2 or would we see a Destiny 3 instead?

    Bungie made that future rather clear today. The...

    Saber Interactive announced an HD re-release of the action-adventure title that was a bit of a sleeper hit after it was initially released in 2009. I am of course talking about Ghostbusters: The Video Game, which was originally released on platforms such as the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2, Xbox 360, Wii, DS, and PC. Today, Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered was officially announced and will be released later this year to celebrate the 35th...

    Microsoft announced a new Game Pass today. Unlike the current Xbox Game Pass, this one is tailored specifically for the PC owners out there. Microsoft says that they have designed a Game Pass experience that specifically meets the needs of PC gamers and PC game developers.

    The Xbox Game Pass for PC, but it will give PC gamers access to a library of over 100 PC games on Windows 10. Some of the developers that are...

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare has just been officially announced and revealed for the third-ish time in the history of the world.
