Last week the gaming world was thrown into a grade-A tizzy, when XboxEra reported the rumor that Starfield would be going to PlayStation and other platforms. In short order, rumors that Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and even Gears of War were being considered for multiplatform releases began to make the rounds, raising the specter of Microsoft going fully third party.
Hideo Kojima has revealed a fascinating tidbit about the development of his new Xbox horror game OD: He brought Xbox boss Phil Spencer and other members of the Microsoft gaming team to a traditional Japanese purification ceremony.
Hideo Kojima has a lot of stuff on his plate, including Death Stranding 2 and the Xbox cloud-powered horror game OD, but perhaps the most exciting project for longtime fans is Physint, a new “action espionage” game in the vein of Metal Gear Solid. Since parting ways with Konami, Kojima has seemingly avoided a return to the stealth genre, so what convinced him to return?
Today, the US Federal Trade Commission criticized Microsoft for its plans to lay off 1,900 employees in the wake of its Activision Blizzard acquisition.

The video game console market is about to see its biggest shakeup since Sega stopped producing hardware. Xbox’s Phil Spencer says that the company will share a “business update” with players next week outlining a new vision for the brand.

The unconfirmed reports sent Xbox loyalists into a panic as fans brace for a possible future where Xbox just produces software instead of physical consoles.
A Palworld player managed to do something only a few ever get to pull off: they caught an Alpha Pal in one throw against very slim odds. It's not easy to catch Alpha Pals in Palworld, which is why it's really amazing that RNG and luck were on their side.
With the occasion of Valentine’s Day on the horizon, Palworld is organizing an interesting competition where the lucky winners will receive $100 in the form of a Steam gift card. The details of the event can be seen on a post found on Palworld’s official Twitter account and basically involve reposting the announcement or submitting Palword-themed fan art on the same social media platform.
The wildly successful RPG Baldur's Gate 3 is getting a big new update next week, with Larian Studios teasing fans about what they can expect from it. Baldur's Gate 3 was one of 2023's biggest games. Not only was it a huge sales success, but the game also took home a dizzying number of awards, including the coveted Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2023. Baldur's Gate 3 was such a hit at launch that Larian could have left it be, but it has instead released multiple updates focused on improving the game and sometimes even adding new content.
