Warhorse Studios was subjected to a cyber attack and reports claim that they were being blackmailed, according to “bertik11”🚀 ✅All computers and internal systems are disconnected, and staff are prohibited from turning them on. ✅Hackers are reportedly blackmailing the studio and demanding money. ✅Development work has completely stopped, which could impact both Kingdom Come and their Lord of the Rings project. ✅Reports indicate this is a massive incident brought to light by studio employees. Moments ago, Warhorse released another statement acknowledging the attack, after their initial confirmation of it, and they followed that they are working with cybersecurity experts to solve the issue🤔

Bungie could be hinting a Destiny 1 remaster🚀 ✅Bungie has not confirmed if Destiny 3 is in development, though an unannounced project labeled “Redacted” ("We're back") has sparked speculation. ✅Bungie is working on a major project to restore vaulted Destiny 2 content (campaigns like Red War, Forsaken, Curse of Osiris, Warmind, as well as strikes, raids, and the Menagerie). ✅Early development is expected to finish in January or February 2027, followed by roughly 12 months of full production. ✅A potential Destiny 1 remaster or a modernized version of the original game for current platforms to bring the past decade of content to modern systems. ✅Plans for new updates and ongoing content for current players. ✅Bungie confirmed no major Destiny announcements will happen at TGA 2026, with updates delayed until February 2027. ✅Bungie acknowledged that removing past content hurt community trust and wants to repair that relationship before deciding the franchise's next big step. Source: @MPFirst This comes after Marathon not being the hit Sony wanted it to be, and Bungie facing major staff reductions. Ever since the acquisition, the studio failed to make anything that justifies the $4.7B Sony paid to acquire them. Right now, they’re trying to win back players, as they initially announced not wanting to support Destiny 2 any further, a decision that they overturned afterwards.

France has proposed a €0.055 tax for ever gigabyte of internet usage, which likely affects digital media & streaming including video games🚀 ✅Services like Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime, along with game, film and music streaming and downloads could be affected. ✅A 100GB video game could cost an extra €5.5 to download ✅This means their respective companies could transfer that cost to the customers through individual purchase and subscription price increase ✅The law has not yet been passed. So this remains only a proposal now Looks like digital media may not be so cost effective after all, and it’s all gonna pass onto the gullible customer who supports it😅💿

CD Projekt RED’s Marcin Momot spoke with @MPFirst regarding expansions for The Witcher 3 and how they always aim to offer the most value for money, including the upcoming Songs of the Past expansion🚀 ✅The Witcher 3 expansion pass ($24.99) offered massive value, delivering over 30 hours of gameplay across two acclaimed expansions (Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine). ✅Pricing strategy was driven by ambition during CDPR's first open-world project, a desire to reward player trust, and a commitment to providing genuine value for money. ✅CDPR also provided the next-gen remaster and upgrade to the Complete Edition entirely for free to existing base game owners, granting them free access to both expansions. ✅It remains unconfirmed if future content, such as the newly announced Songs of the Past DLC, will follow this same budget-friendly pricing structure.

Star Wars Jedi 3 is far into development and should be announced soon, according to Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier🚀 This Jedi series has a much better gameplay than most attempts at this franchise, and the protagonist is decent, most of the story and side characters are quite forgettable and fit the modern cookie cutter template. Hope the third one can actually be great overall and has more of that platforming and parkour gameplay, where it shines best😎

This is the only way I can accept another Assassin’s Creed game🚀 I don’t care if it’s a “well-made game” I don’t care if it’s “the story they wanna tell” I don’t care if it follows trends and sells well I don’t care if it’s popular I don’t care if it’s a “fresh new take” I don’t care if it features a half-baked cameo or ancestry to an old character If it has no meaningful 3rd person playable modern day that has a rewarding pay-off and overall sci-fi conspiracy thriller vibe with deep connections to conspiracy theories and technologically advanced ancient civilizations, not mythological gods or fantasy RPG with a line note that justifies it as “tech”, then none of that means anything, and I really don’t want it. All those justification don’t matter to me in the slightest if it doesn’t deliver an experience like the first five games🎤

REPORT: EA has reportedly cancelled Mass Effect 5 because they wanted to invest in making Star Wars: Battlefront🚀 Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier reports that this is the real reason, rather than the game being “woke” or EA being acquired by Saudi Arabia🤔 #SaveMassEffect#

Universal Studios are rumored to announce “Universal Game Studios” at The Game Awards this December🚀 This include game announcements with it, including those: ✅The Purge (PvP game) ✅VaggieTales LarryBoy (Superhero game) ✅How to Train Hour Dragon (RPG game) ✅Jurassic Park Survival ✅The Incredible Hulk game The rumor has been circulating on 4Chan with no trusted source corroborating it, so take it with a grain of salt for now🤔

Hideo Kojima shared a new poster for his upcoming horror game OD: KNOCK🚀 It’s genuinely hard to tell whether this is live action or in-game. And the fact that Sophia Lillie hasn’t had a short hair for a while, makes me think this is in-game😱

Death Stranding: Isolations trailer and info have been revealed🚀 “My mom became a crater.” ✅All-new animated series ✅Set in the world of DEATH STRANDING ✅Original story ✅New unique characters ✅Streaming exclusively on Disney+ in 2027! 👉Directed by Takayuki Sano 👉Screenplay by Tow Ubukata 👉Animated by E&H production

Konami witnessed a 75% increase in profits, due to their strong games line-up and growth of their franchises🚀 See that EA? Sony? Others? Who would’ve thought Konami would recover like they? And how? Not by more live service, not by predatory practices, but by reviving beloved IPs and creating good games. #SaveMassEffect# Save Physical Media Save Gaming

The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye) visited SHIFT Studios and managed to get a sneak peek into Stellar Blade: Blood Rain🚀 Tesfaye stated “Thank you for the warm welcome and the inspiration” as he shared a bunch of photos including those shown below. Take a look at the game’s start screen and some creature designs😎

Hideo Kojima released P.T., the playable teaser for Silent Hills 12 years ago🚀 To this day, it is the most twisted, innovative and hyped up horror project, and the inspiration to so many games and films, and its cancellation remains the biggest heartbreaking gaming. Can’t wait to see what Kojima does with OD, which for me, feels like the closest thing to what Silent Hills might have potentially been🥺 @Kojima_Hideo @Kaizerkunkun

REPORT: Jason Schreier on PlayStation’s decision to end physical game media🚀 ✅Sony considers their digital player base is large enough to do without those who continue wanting physical discs ✅They won’t change their retail distribution ✅Stores sell empty boxes with only download code ✅They’re convinced that over time, players will accept a 100% digital gaming future ✅They don’t think it’s necessary to maintain contact with fans ✅They trust the strength of their brand and the loyalty of their community, and imagine they will continue to support their digital games Regarding profitability: ✅When Sony sells a first party physical game to a retailer, the retailer gets around ~30% of the sale price ✅Digital helps them keep 100% of it ✅They expect to significantly increase their profit margins This is absolutely disgraceful to read if true. I’m genuinely repulsed by Sony💿
