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 ...

  • Goku Coming to Dragon Ball FighterZ in May

    Goku Coming to Dragon Ball FighterZ in May


    Goku from the Dragon Ball GT series will be coming this May to Dragon Ball FighterZ. Specifically, May 9 is the day in which Goku arrives to lay some smack down on all challengers. Goku is part of the FighterZ Pass 2 which is going for $24.99 (USD).

    I assume he will be sold separately, but I do not know for sure. I also don't know how much it may cost you if you purchase him separately. If you do get the FighterZ Pass, you'll also get six already released characters plus some additional Dragon Ball fighters such as Gogeta (SSGSS) and Broly (DBS). Huh. I wonder who they got to voice Broly for this. ...

    In addition to this, BioWare added in a new stronghold for players to dive into today. It's called...

    Call of Duty 'Partners' Played the New Call of Duty and You Didn't


    A private event was held today wherein a number of college football players and various "Call of Duty Partners" got to play the new Call of Duty title. Charlie Intel gathered up a bunch of these social media postings from all these #CallofDutyPartners on Twitter and Instagram. You can see a few of the tweets embedded below.

    Really, that's kind of all there is to pull from today's event. Nobody has spilled any beans and I'm sure all of these people are under a strict...

Curiously, there are no solid figures that break down exactly how many units per platform were sold. However, Saber Interactive does seem to praise the "tremendous support of the Epic Games Store."

  • Critical Mode Coming to Kingdom Hearts 3 Tomorrow

    Critical Mode Coming to Kingdom Hearts 3 Tomorrow


    Kingdom Hearts 3 came out near the tail end of January. However, it was lacking a critical feature that fans were eager to play. That feature is none other than the Critical Mode difficulty level. This would be the fourth difficulty for the game, joining the base game's Beginner Mode, Standard Mode, and Proud Mode.

    The details about Critical Mode are rather light right now. Kingdom Hearts designer Tetsuya Nomura said only that the team has "changed things up from the previous...

  • Warhammer: Chaosbane Second Beta Phase Trailer

    Warhammer: Chaosbane Second Beta Phase Trailer


    A trailer is here highlighting the big opening for the second phase of the closed beta for Warhammer: Chaosbane. So I guess this is a double whammy of a news post here. Not only is there a new trailer for this second phase of the beta, but it's also news that the second phase of the beta is now live.

    Neat.

    This beta is still "closed" in the sense that it's only available for those that pre-ordered the game. If you haven't done that, you can still get into...
