Tencent have reportedly shut down their TiMi Montreal studio, set up back in 2021 with the goal of creating multi-platform open world games. In those five years, the studio haven’t shipped any games, but had brought on former Assassin’s Creed creative director Ashraf Ismail. Ismail was reportedly fired by Ubisoft following an investigation into misconduct, with the developer having been accused of taking advantage of his status to engage in extramarital relationships.
Blizzard has seemingly jumped the gun on revealing a new Overwatch collaboration event with Nier: Automata. I’ve lost count of how many games the Yoko Taro and PlatinumGames universe has appeared in at this point, and it’s time to check another heavy hitter off the list. Fresh off its major rejuvenation with the Overwatch Season 1 launch, the FPS game is actually going a little broader with the character selection it’s bringing to the table than most do. However, you’re not going to be particularly shocked when I tell you who’s first in line for the new skins. Overwatch is…
Everyone loves a stone-cold thriller, and according to The Hollywood Reporter, a limited comic book series that does just that has been snapped up for adaptation. Szymon Kudrański’s No Man’s Land began in 2025 and is set during the Cold War era. In 1963, the dead body of a woman is found frozen on the Ice Curtain — an ice bridge that anyone brave enough to cross can walk from the USA to Russia. The latest traveller that didn’t make the journey catches the attention of both sides, forcing an FBI agent and a young KGB operative to reluctantly join…
Ubisoft’s CEO Yves Guillemot has confirmed that they are making a bunch of new Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry games, together with some unannounced original projects, in a wide-ranging albeit very rehearsed-sounding chinwag with Variety. In the interview, Guillemot also talked more about Ubisoft’s plan to cut fixed costs by €200 million, as the publishers continue their transformation into a set of “creative houses” grouped around particular games and genres. The transformation has already led to the cancellation of several games and the closure of two studios, and it sounds like there could be more layoffs on…
Wondering how to get the heart and lungs for the body in Resident Evil Requiem? On finding a lifeless body in the East Wing of the Care Center, you can see on the computer that two organs are required to bring it back to life: artificial lungs and a heart. You need to solve this puzzle in order to get the Level 2 wristband and open the Isolation Ward in Resident Evil Requiem, a room that’s been largely hinted at as containing something deadly, and also is the only route to the Security Office to get the last quartz to open…

Make sure the dildos are flying at half mast. Saints Row 1 design director Chris Stockman has said he believes the series is “dead”, following conversations with Embracer Group about his pitch for a prequel. According to the developer, who currently heads VR studio Bit Planet Games, that chatter about a potential Saints Rowssurection post Embracer’s closing of Volition has ended in the publishers ghosting Stockman.
There are two things that are certain in this world: death and taxes. But no one looks forward to either: there’s the finality of the former, and the bank account-draining of the latter. Yet, in Begraved, I came to excitedly anticipate both. Developed by Grip Jaw, which is made up of various members of the Valheim team, I was invited to test out the co-op game’s Steam Next Fest demo. Accompanied by co-founder Emilia Oscarsson, community manager Jade Mcintosh, and, per his LinkedIn, ‘World Weaver’ Robin Eyre (who Mcintosh quickly promoted to ‘sexy bear’ during the two hours we spent…
Did you know Bungie made Marathon? Not that one, this one, the one currently running a server slam ahead of launch on March 5. The studio’s a Ship of Theseus at this point but you can clearly see Bungie’s DNA in Marathon’s stellar gunplay, superlative soundscape, and retina-hijacking environments. My four hours with the server slam have been fantastic simply from an FPS perspective. Pardon my flowery language: it feels great to shoot guns. But this isn’t a simple shooter. It’s a complicated shooter – an extraction shooter. And it’s in the extraction half that bad habits – revealed to…
Edwin got beat up the other day, so I suppose it’s up to me to ask what everyone’s playing this weekend. No extended joke here. He’s just absolutely battered. In pieces, really. God, that must have been humiliating for him.
