* After previously holding a defiant stance over the issue, EA announced they will no longer be selling loot boxes for their FIFA series in Belgium in order to be compliant with the country's gambling laws.

* Twitch is currently dealing with online backlash following the company's recent attempts to cater only to their top streamers. This time it involved plastering ads hyping up big events for their top streamers on all community channels and streams. Predictably, this caused a lot of complaints and resentment from other channels who felt Twitch was purposely trying to damage smaller streamers in order to benefit their chosen ones.

* Capcom announced Resident Evil 2 Remake has shipped around 3 million copies since its launch last week.

For those interested in playing the private beta for The Division 2, small warning as it will contain some end game content.

The good news is that stuff can be skipped if you don't want any major storyline spoilers.

This will put players at the level cap of 30 and let them try out the new specialist classes in The Division 2. You can safely skip the content if you don't want any spoilers for the story.

The private beta will be running from February 7 at 1 am PST until February 11 at 1 am PST. You'll be able to pre-load the beta on February 6 so that you can jump straight in when it starts. Available on all platforms (PS4, PC, Xbox One), access is limited to pre-orders from participating retailers.

Damn only two spots left in dbz season 2 and there’s already rumors that one of them is another Goku. Looking more and more like my boy Janemba isn’t gonna make it despite fan popularity.

There's quite a few characters above him if we're going on fan popularity. The Super Sayijin waifus for instance.

According to a report from Japanese newspaper Nikkei, Nintendo is currently expected to sell around 32 million Switches by the end of this fiscal year (March). For some perspective, that would put it in a tie with the N64 as the 3rd highest selling console in company history.

Nintendo is also reported to be working on plans to expand their paid online service this year and a "slim" version of the Switch could arrive as early as this year.

Respawn Entertainment supposedly got a top secret free-to-play game called Apex Legends in the works. Rumor is that it'll be announced and released this Monday.

It's a mishmash of Titanfall without the mechs with some Overwatch and Blackout mode from Black Ops 4.

Here's a link to the ign article with you wanna read more.

* During a recent interview with Eurogamer, Respawn Entertainment stated they currently have no plans to develop a new game in the Titanfall series. Unofficial reason due to EA ditching development of Titanfall 3 in order to cash-in on the Battle Royal craze instead.
https://www.destructoid.com/nope-res...3-541600.phtml
https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2...-are-no-titans

* EA is currently rumored to be considering plans to remaster Jade Empire or develop a new game in the series based on recent trademark filings.
https://www.destructoid.com/jade-emp...--541534.phtml

* According to Sony's recent fiscal report, PS4 has sold over 91 million consoles since its launch while their Playstation Plus service is currently over 36 million subscribers.

Had Jade Empire but never really got deep into it.

If the rumor is true, I'd grab it again.

They are making TF3. They're just switching it to a new engine since they're not pleased using the Source engine again so close to the next gen of consoles. Apex Legends is their last game using the Source engine. It is not a replacement.

* Microsoft announced they have rebranded their Microsoft Studios division to Xbox Game Studios going forward.

* EA announced Battlefield V failed to meet their sales expectations and put the blame on the game not having its battle royale mode available at launch. Game sold around 7.3 million copies but EA wanted over 8 million in sales by now.

* Based on Capcom's recent fiscal report, the company stated they were happy with the "strong" sales for both Mega Man 11 and X Legacy Collection.

* Gaming website Screwattack announced they are shutting down and will rebrand themselves as Death Battle Channel due to the immense popularity of their Death Battle series. All legacy Screwattack content will be shifted over to their portal channel on Roster Teeth. On a personal note, I used to write articles for their gaming news for almost 2 years before they shut down their news department in order to focus more towards their Death Battle series.

Late Night News Edition

Despite the complaints and mess EA has made with their handling of the Stars Wars license, it seems Disney isn't that bothered by it and claims to have a "good relationship" with EA.

As long as EA doesn't hurt Disney financially or wreck the Star Wars name, Disney doesn't really care about the status of their games. Also means almost no chance Disney would ditch EA's hold of the license prior to the deal expiring in 2023.

"Over the years, as you know, we’ve tried our hand at self-publishing, we’ve bought companies, we’ve sold companies, we’ve bought developers, we’ve closed developers," Iger said. "And we’ve found over the years that we haven’t been particularly good at the self-publishing side, but we’ve been great at the licensing side which obviously doesn’t require that much allocation of capital."

"Since we’re allocating capital in other directions ... we’ve just decided that the best place for us to be in that space is licensing and not publishing. We’ve had good relationships with some of those we’re licensing to, notably EA and the relationship on the Star Wars properties, and we’re probably going to stay on that side of the business and put our capital elsewhere."

During a recent interview with VG247, Capcom's director Hideaki Itsuno revealed he's pretty much the reason why a new Dragon's Dogma game hasn't been made yet.

Apparently he went to the company's founder one day asking for permission to make either Dragon's Dogma 2 or Devil May Cry 5 and expected the company to make the decision for him. Instead the company was very interested in both ideas and left the decision up to him.

Itsuno felt way more interested in making a new Devil May Cry game which is why DMC 5 got made and not DD 2.

As relayed by Itsuno's translator, "[Tsujimoto] said 'Okay, do whatever you want. Do whichever one you want.' So I thought, alright, y'know what... let's do [Devil May Cry 5]. So we did that."

According to recent report from Bloomberg, Activision Blizzard are currently expected to be laying off hundreds of employees tomorrow.

Official reasons due to the company's stock taking big hits since last October, investors being worried about the loss of the Destiny IP, and notable shakeups in upper management the past few months.

Or a very sweet compensation package if they are actually held accountable.

Activision spent $15 million just on the signing bonus alone for their new CFO.

The most hilarious part is that Activision/Blizzard did better financially than they've ever done. Wasn't good enough I guess.

No company ever hits their expectations anymore because they're all unrealistic. And everyone but the people setting said expectations has to pay.

* According to a couple of developers, Sony's claims of being more open for cross-platform play on the PS4 was pretty much a lie. Also Sony currently dealing with some backlash from developers after recently putting all the blame on them for the lack of cross-platform support on the PS4.

* THQ Nordic reportedly has recently purchased Warhorse Studios (Kingdom Come: Deliverance devs) to add to their growing pile of studios and former THQ properties.

* Another game in the Zelda series is getting the remake treatment from Nintendo.
