Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 developers Warhorse Studios are refusing to confirm or deny a rumour that they’re making a Lord of the Rings game for Embracer. This could indicate one of two things: firstly, they are making a Lord of the Rings game for Embracer. And secondly, they are not making a Lord of the Rings game for Embracer.

He’s been spending his time hoping for other games to take home those big GOTY awards because he wants to help celebrate the creative – and weird – work of other devs.”I was crossing fingers that we wouldn’t get [Game of the Year] because there are so many super creative games and weird games,” Guillermin told Game Informer at…

There’s a sense of stagnation in the air: a feeling that, no matter what you do, you’ll never get out…

Assassin’s Creed has left the scruffy underworld of Gaming behind and crept into the gilt-swigging realm of Theatre. Ubisoft have partnered with a former Cirque du Soleil and Olympics ceremony director to create Heredis: Echoes of the Past – a two hour stage production defined by “acrobatics, urban parkour, choreographed combat, and physical feats within large-scale immersive visual environments”. It’ll be set in different time periods, and is “inspired by the world and themes” of the videogame series, rather than being a work of AC canon.
