Blizzard Will Not Release Any Major Games in 2019
Yesterday, news about Blizzard's upcoming year got a bit lost in the shuffle and understandably so. However, during yesterday's earnings call with investors, it was revealed that Blizzard has no "frontline release" planned for the 2019 fiscal year.
In short: This means they aren't going to release any new titles in the next year. Yes, this includes the oft pined for desktop Diablo 4.
Activision Blizzard president Collister Johnson had this to say during... -

In addition, the team also dropped some new Valentines Day cosmetics to the store. These will be available to pick up until February 19, 2019.

OtherSide Entertainment Reacquires System Shock 3 Publishing Rights
Back in December, Starbreeze suffered a real one-two punch. They had filed for reconstruction and then days later their offices were raided by Swedish authorities over suspicions of insider trading. This was about a month after the release of the ill-received Overkill's The Walking Dead, a mediocre game that never managed to pick up much of a fanbase at any point.
Given the company's issues, a question was raised about whether or not they would still hold on to the publishing... -

Metro Exodus Preload Available on Steam but Not on Epic Games Store
Goodness, this launch of Metro Exodus has been a bit wild. The other day we saw from Deep Silver's technical support that there wouldn't be any preload of the game through Steam. The email response from Deep Silver literally said that they expect to see the most traffic going to the Epic Games Store version of the game.
So, we assumed that meant there would instead be a preload period on the Epic Games Store, right? Well, no. We were wrong. To be fair, that response from Deep... -

World War Z Release Date Set for April 16
We've been seeing a lot of media these past few months for the upcoming World War Z from Saber Interactive and Focus Home Interactive. The problem was, we didn't really have any sort of release date outside of a vague "2019" window.
Today, we were finally given a release date. That date is April 16, 2019 for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC via the Epic Games Store. Pre-orders are now open for your platform of choice. Plus, all pre-orders will get a "free"... -

Paradox Potentially Teasing New Vampire: The Masquerade Game via Dating App ARG
This one is coming at you hot and fast from PC Gamer. A new report from the digital magazine suggests that Paradox Interactive is possibly teasing a new Vampire: The Masquerade game via a fake dating app.

Metro Exodus 'Artyom's Nightmare' Trailer
Look, I cannot recall if I already posted this trailer or not. Chances are, I probably missed this last week when it actually came out. However, we're in the here and now and I can't just go and alter history, so I'm posting it for you today. This here is a new trailer for Metro Exodus. If you already watched it, then it's obviously not new, but do spare me the semantics.
