New KOTOR (Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic) game in the works, NOT by EA nor Bioware.
And a Diablo II remake is being done by Vicarious Visions (Crash Bandicoot remakes, other stuff too probably). Good stuff. |

Supposedly it's some outfit not even on the radar in the gaming industry handling KOTOR.
BUT, if it's a full on remake of the first 2 and the chatter about getting that into canon is true, I can see Bluepoint handling it. |

Incredible. Hopefully they stay true to the original art style. I put so much time into Diablo 2, it was a huge part of my teenage gaming years. Used to rush home from school just to play with my online friends. Diablo III was a gigantic disappointment, Blizzard doesn't know how to do atmosphere in games anymore. |

Google is currently in the process of shutting down their internal gaming studios and sticking to just signing deals with third party devs and publishers to provide games for their Stadia streaming service.

The ESA reportedly is currently working on plans for this year's E3 event to be a digital-only style event.
Only problem is they need to convince enough publishers to support the idea or could potentially be looking at another year without E3 due to coronavirus pandemic issues. Quote:

EA top brass will be doing a review of BioWare's Anthem reboot later during the week. It's pretty much going to determine if EA will continue to back it or just give it up.

According to CD Projekt RED, the company was recently hit with a major cyber attack.
Among the data stolen from their servers was the source code to Cyberpunk 2077. The hackers also sent a ransom note threatening to leak it and other sensitive company files online if their demands were not met. Quote:

Big fucking oof right there. Had to be a helluva exploit to be able to get into the DB's and datastores that would hold that info. Bet it was undetected for a very long time.

Sony is currently facing the possibility of being hit with a class-action lawsuit soon in regards to drift issues with the PS5 controller.
Unlike Nintendo's issues with Switch joycons, seems PS5's drift problems can be triggered quicker and with less wear-and-tear usage needed. If I remember correctly, drift and thumbstick issues becoming a growing problem with controllers these days is mostly due to the current standard for thumbstick tech and design. Add in manufacturing issues like Nintendo has been experiencing and that's the recipe for controllers being less reliable these days for long-term usage. Plus some issues with Bluetooh and/or wireless tech inside the controllers as well. Quote:

Thankfully not had to deal with drift on any controller I have. This sounds bad tho, and Sony should do what they can to get in front of it like Nintendo did if true.

Seems like a bad choice to have sword controls tied to the right analog joycon for the Zelda remake.
Gonna make cameras wonky. Feel like they would have done better with an Ocarina of Time reboot. |

If they do any other quality-of-life tweaks to the game besides the controls, hope it involves scaling back on the amount of hand holding and talking by Fi and the annoying issue of how it treated getting items every time you started a new play session.
Plus maybe make the first hour or two of the game more enjoyable or less sluggish in pacing although that might be a bit harder because of how story and world building heavy it was. |

Konami is currently rumored to be working on a new game in the Silent Hill series, according to VGC.
This new game isn't being developed by Konami themselves and instead by a "prominent Japanese developer" with plans to officially reveal it during this summer. Same source also claims that Konami is also currently working on plans for a potential new game to be made for both the Metal Gear Solid and Castlevania series. Quote:

Amazing. Most exciting gaming news I have heard all year. Silent Hill 2 is one of my top games of all time, I still play it time to time. I just hope its a new original game and not a remake, I don't think any remake could do the original justice. A little bit wary, I don't know if a new development team outside of Konami can capture the magic. I will still buy it, but the newer Silent Hill games never matched the masterpieces that 1-3 were. Homecoming was really bad, and Vatra games' Downpour left a lot to be desired, but was still a really good game that got overlooked because of a disastrous buggy launch. Hope they hand it off to someone who UNDERSTANDS Silent Hill. I want a new story in the vein of the originals. I would hate to see another Silent Hill with a pyramid head enemy just because "PYRaMid HeaD = SILENT HILL". Anyone who just throws a pyramid head in, like the Silent Hill movies do, really did not understand it's origins. It was unique to the story of Silent Hill 2, the protoganists inner demon punishing him for his sins, perceived or otherwise. If they get it right, it will be the game to make me run out and buy a next gen console. I could talk Silent Hill for hours...SO MUCH depth to those games, especially 2. |

Sony is getting out of the movie and TV show market on the Playstation Store. It'll be just strictly games. No more purchases and rentals. Of course, anything you have bought can still be watched.
You got until August 31st of this year to look around for some deals. https://www.ign.com/articles/sony-to...es-and-rentals |
