Was working on one of the cancelled projects, F

Aw man, that sucks. Were you in charge of putting in towers to climb?

Jokes aside, that's awful news man. I've heard here and there that most of the projects cancelled were pretty innovative and fairly "out of their wheelhouse" so to speak.

Gigantic leak from ValvE. Over 100GB of assets leaked, including 61GB of TF2 assets, which in turn probably marks the end for that game in terms of new content.

On the complete other side of it all:

[Multi Plat] The Crew 3 getting announced tomorrow

Pretty much confirmed by this tweet from the official Twitter account: https://twitter.com/TheCrewGame/status/ ... mG3fssAAAA

Not something I've ever played myself, but its seemingly a big enough deal that I thought I'd include it in this little "roundup".

[Multi Plat] The Outer Worlds is getting a remaster

Yes, the 3 year old game is getting a remaster, and in typical Take Two fashion, it's gonna cost ya'. In it's launch period it'll "only" cost $/€10 if you already own the base game and all the DLC. If you're a first time buyer, expect to pay full price for this thing, meaning $/€70. (Not confirmed as far as I'm aware, but expect it. T2 is one of the absolute worst companies in gaming)
Edit: "Players who own the whole set can nab the upgrade for $9.99 rather than pay the full $59.99 price tag."

Meanwhile, this is how CDPR (and a good handful of others) handled their jump to "next gen":

[Multi Plat] The next-gen update for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will be free for everyone who already owns the game

The next-gen update for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is coming on December 14th, free for everyone who already owns the game.

The best part about this shit is definitely that the game (The Outer Worlds) is basically "Corporations are bad" the game, and then they pull this shit. The irony is just..

Release date is set to 07.03.2023. (7th March)

An artist at iD dropped a concept trailer on his Artstation page of the cancelled DOOM 4, so naturally, it's on youtube as well.


To me, the artstyle is quite reminiscent of Doom 3, whereas the combat reminds me a lot of 2016. Something tells me they scrapped a lot of the art, and just developed further on the combat, and I'm very pleased with that decision because DOOM 2016 is one of my favourite games of the past 10-15 years.

[PC] Counter-Strike 2 trademarks filed by Valve

The rumours have been going pretty non-stop these past 2 weeks, due to an Nvidia update that had CS2 in its files.
Well, this trademark filing is probably the closest we're getting to an announcement before the actual announcement.

What CS2 entails isn't known yet. Most seem to lean towards CSGO getting ported to the Source 2 engine, whilst some are speculating a full, new game. (I'm leaning heavily towards the former myself, as that makes the most sense financially)
The article I'm linking is making a pretty good case for the latter.

[PC] Counter-Strike 2 is real, free, and everything carries over

https://www.pcgamer.com/counter-strike- ... ries-over/





Full release is apparently going to happen during the summer.

There's also a limited test going right now that anyone can apply to get access to, though it's obviously not guaranteed that you get access.
Aplly for access here: https://www.counter-strike.net/cs2

[Multi Plat] Warhammer 40K: Boltgun releases on 23rd May.



I've been really looking forward to this as the concept of a Doom-style FPS game in the 40K universe just makes so much sense, its pretty incredible how they haven't done it before.
Looks really fun too.
