As Blizzard gears up for the first new Overwatch 2 season of 2026, game director Aaron Keller takes a moment to dig into some of the biggest community talking points right now. At the top of his list are discussions about misplaced challenger ranks, event rewards, and Blizzard’s intent to support the continued popularity of Open Queue. Also included are adjustments to the recently reworked aim assist system, which Keller says the team “would have rolled out a lot differently” given a second chance. In December, the Overwatch 2 team rolled out a new overhaul to player ranks called the…

While Bethesda juggles a lot of pressure these days, between working on both The Elder Scrolls 6 and whatever’s happening in Fallout, it’s also a creatively nourishing environment, because the devs get to enjoy two distinct flavors of storytelling.Flipping between the properties is a challenge, but it gives people much-needed breaks, too, as two creatives recently told the PC Gamer magazine.”It keeps things fresh. It keeps you from getting bored,” Istvan Pely, an artist at Bethesda, says. “You have the opportunity to have some distance from a franchise for a few years, and that’s enough time to sort of develop…
Earlier this week, Ubisoft cancelled six games, delayed seven more, and closed three studios in Halifax, Canada and Stockholm, as part of efforts to “right-size” the ship under Commodore Tencent by chucking a lot of people and projects into the sea. I do not need to tell you that Beyond Good and Evil 2 was not one of the cancelled projects. Cats and dogs will be getting married before Ubisoft cancel Beyond Good and Evil 2 – a game announced 17 years ago, which has survived many rounds of key departures, scandals, tragedies and cost-cutting. Ubisoft’s latest public reasoning…
Watching the Fable gameplay demonstration during the Xbox Developer Direct, I was struck by one feeling more than any other: nostalgia. Playground Games has been beavering away at its reboot to the classic Lionhead RPGs for a very long time now, and the relative radio silence over the past year had me rather worried about its status. The good news is that what it revealed yesterday immediately struck me as a loving, faithful follow-up to the original trilogy; the (slightly) bad news is that it makes the absence of an iconic feature hurt just a little. But stick with me,…

Playground Games offered the first in-depth look at Forza Horizon 6 during last night’s Xbox Developer Direct, in addition to confirming its leaked release date of May 19th. As you’d expect, there were lots of cars sliding and speeding through a variety of Japanese biomes in a manner I can’t wait to experience for myself, but one new feature introduced left me wondering whether it’s something I’ll actually take time out of my driving around for.
In a world where Rockstar Games can more than comfortably get by on just GTA and Red Dead Redemption, some of its more maverick but no less beloved series have been put on extended hiatus. Bully is a prime example, but a recent mod project to turn it into a GTA Online-style experience really breathed new life into it. However, just a few weeks after it went live, Bully Online was swiftly shut down, with no reason given – however, a cease and desist from Rockstar or parent company Take-Two always felt like the most likely outcome. YouTuber ‘Swegta’, the…
