Sometimes, if you want people to buy more of something, lowering the price can be an effective way of making it happen. You might already be familiar with that theory of economics but for those who are not, a real life example: In an internal memo shared with The Verge, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma said…
Playstack, publisher of some of the most acclaimed indie games in recent years—games like Balatro, Abiotic Factor, and The Case of the Golden Idol—is likely to find itself under new ownership in a proposed sale that would see it land in the same investment portfolio as Fandom and GameSpot (via Game Developer). Playstack’s current owner,…
Six years ago, in October 2020, Blizzard announced the end of new content updates for StarCraft 2, its storied real-time strategy game, although it promised to continue supporting the game with tweaks and balance patches “as needed.” It’s followed through on that commitment over the years since, and today (technically yesterday, but I didn’t notice…
Just over a month after denying a rumor that Fable would be delayed into 2027 to avoid the Grand Theft Auto 6 behemoth, Fable has been delayed into 2027 because “the year is packed with incredible games,” one of which just happens to be Grand Theft Auto 6. “Packed” is maybe overstating it a bit,…

In the case of Amazon, it’s been very much in the lattermost category, though…
It’s been a big couple of days for Witcher fans as an expansion for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was confirmed (after it was accidentally leaked on the RED Launcher, whoopsie). But thanks to a Q&A portion at the end of the financial call we also now know a bit more about CD Projekt Red’s…
So, Destiny 2 is going the way of the dodo—content updates will end in June, and a Destiny 3 likely isn’t even in the cards for Bungie. As someone who has had one of my favourite MMOs shut down before my eyes (and later given an official license to operate on a private server, score)…
