Notably, original Xbox co-founder and console designer Seamus Blackley predicted the shake-up will herald the absolute end of Xbox as a whole, but former Xbox boss Peter Moore hopes things aren’t quite so drastic.Moore, who oversaw the Xbox label for Microsoft from 2003 to 2007, sat down with GamesBeat to give his take on the restructuring, which included the sudden departure of president and presumed Spencer replacement Sarah Bond.

Why do they always make cyborg types in movies and games talk like that? You know what I mean, that kind of “I’m not a robot but I talk as if I am one,” kind of cadence. We may never find the answer, but in any case, such a case has cropped up again in the latest update for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, which introduces the Techmarine class for you to spill some guts with. The very red Techmarine class, according to this convenient post of the blog variety, is one that is quite good for doing…

I’m finding Surgent Studios, the developer of Tales of Zenzera: ZAU and Dead Take, increasingly difficult to pin down, though, not in a bad way. Those two games are a far cry from one another in both atmosphere, genre, and mechanics, and now the studio’s next game is something completely different once again: FixForce, an extraction platformer, a combination of words that might finally pin down Those Types of Games. By Those Types of Games, I mean the likes of Lethal Company, Peak, and the many others that have followed. Extraction platformer might better apply to the latter…

Warhammer Relics is back with another annual showcase of cool merch to tempt fans of 40K, Age of Sigmar, and beyond, yet it isn’t the props or plushies that stole my heart this year – it’s the ultra-portable game mats.Yes, the wearable Space Marine helmet is incredible (I need one on my shelf yesterday). DK’s Warhammer Age of Sigmar The Ultimate Guide will also be a must-have, considering how excellent the 40K version is at breaking down the universe and its factions. But for my money, the thing I’m most excited about is a handful of gaming mats.Armed with knowledge…

Colony sim and city builder Going Medieval will leave early access on 12th March, at which point it will presumably be retitled Gone Medieval. Yes, this is the sort of joke that ought to get you imprisoned – imprisonment being one of many features added to Going Medieval since the winter of 2021, when Sin described it as “a buildier, friendlier Rimworld spinoff”. Other elements introduced over the long, increasingly Medieval years include fire, water, siege weapons, and a trading system. The 1.0 launch will bring “a proper endgame, wonderful improvements, new content, and a lot of…
