What would it take to make you use Epic’s launcher? Free games? Even better revenue for devs? Or perhaps an experience that doesn’t make you want to pull your hair out? Well, Epic’s already tried the first two, so now it’s onto the third as it hires a new VP to oversee and hopefully fix…
AMD has launched a new graphics card, the RX 9050. This is an entry-level graphics card with a slim provision of cores and VRAM, more of a match for the 890M than the RX 9060. It’s even more entry-level than initial rumours suggested, and while you’d hope for a great price to match, we’re not…
Sony won’t be producing game disks anymore—a decision that’s been met industry-wide with a mixture of frustration and ambivalence, depending on which side of the fence you fall on.

Not only is Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey blowing up the box office, but it’s also blowing up the career of one of the lesser-known actors in the film… lemme quickly check IMDB for his name… ah, here it is: Matt Damon. Just kidding, Matt Damon is in everything, everywhere, every movie, all the time. You…
AI isn’t doing great on the PR front. Whether it’s the exponentially increasing electricity consumption amidst worsening climate change, the data centers leaking toxic pollutants into neighboring communities, or the years-long parade of business leaders insisting the technology will replace humans in “most, if not all” professional fields, the AI industry has an excellent record…
Do me a favor and don’t let Lunarium get lost in the sea of game releases on Steam. Tons of action RPGs show up in my inbox and it’s sometimes hard to differentiate which one is which. Lunarium stood out mostly because of its art style, which sort of looks like it would fit on…
With Destiny 2 now fully embalmed, I find myself wondering—as do a great many others—‘how did this happen?’ A new Game Business interview with Sheldon Carter, president of Warframe developer Digital Extremes, has me pondering that question even harder: It turns out that while Destiny 2 was floundering, its foremost rival was enjoying “a few…
