Fortnite added Peter Griffin from Family Guy recently, and if you can push past the existential dread that sentence may give you, it's a no-brainer. Once a PvE co-op builder, Fortnite's battle royale game mode has long outgrown its humble roots and become an 'Oops! All Franchises' monolith.
In February 2022, a group of CD Projekt veterans headed up by Witcher 3 director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz announced the launch of a new studio called Rebel Wolves and teased its first project with a bit of concept art that Rich Stanton said gave him «strong vampire vibes.» Today, two years later, the studio finally dropped the game's title and some new art, and you know what?

In October 2023, Microsoft completed its acquisition of Activision Blizzard, and by the end of the year, the latter company’s CEO had departed. Now, this will be the year where we’ll see how Activision Blizzard functions when fully integrated into Microsoft.

I've watched the first two episodes of the anime version of Delicious in Dungeon, which is based on Ryoko Kui's manga, and been well-pleased with how it's been adapted. The core is the same—a party of down-and-out adventurers have to survive by cooking monsters they find in a dungeon—and it's great seeing the meals they prepare from basilisk and carnivorous plants represented as lusciously as a Miyazaki meal.
Ray traced lighting, man. I often feel like I can do without its beastly hits to performance in my games, but then I'll see a transformative use of it that makes me want to slam that «RTX on» button. Modder Slasks Psybunker's demo for ray tracing in the original Max Payne (first spotted by DSOGaming) is one such dinger.
It's clear that Final Fantasy 14's producer and director, Naoki Yoshida, is in it for the love of the game. As reported by Automaton and GamesRadar, in a recent joint interview at the Final Fantasy 14 Fan Festival in Tokyo, Yoshida went so far as to contemplate what would happen to the game in the event of his firing from Square Enix, or even his death.
