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...

    That Ark: Survival Evolved Remake is Delayed and Cheaper

    The planned shutdown of the original release is also delayed.

    American Hero: Unrated Edition Brings Unfiltered Adult Situations to GOG

    The censored version of this one was apparently banned from release on Steam?

    In 2021, Ziggurat acquired and put together a piece of media that was originally intended for release on the Atari Jaguar. What they released was presumed to be lost and canceled during development. That release was American Hero, a "passionate love letter to the Full Motion Video (FMV) classics of the 90s." In 2021, American Hero was released on PC and for consoles.

    Now, Ziggurat is...

    Developer Claims Baldur's Gate 3 Takes 100 Hours to Complete

    Larian Studios claims a standard playthrough of their RPG will take up to 100 hours.

    It's a good thing that Larian Studios moved up the release date for Baldur's Gate 3, because the studio says a "standard playthrough" will take anywhere from 75 to 100 hours. This means if you want to complete the game before Starfield is out on September 6th, you best get to playing Baldur's Gate 3 ASAP.

    Larian Studios says that their upcoming RPG can take up to 100 hours if...

    Good news for PC players, bad news for PlayStation 5 players.

    Larian Studios just announced that Baldur's Gate 3's release date has been changed for both PC and PlayStation 5. Unlike many release date changes, this one is a little bit different from the norm.

    Baldur's Gate 3 will now be out on August 3 for PC, or a month earlier than what was previously announced. This move was presumably done to ensure that those on PC had plenty of time to dive into Baldur's Gate 3 before...
