It's seemingly confirmed that Horizon Zero Dawn is getting a remaster, despite the fact it really doesn't need one. Sony is focusing on making the games look a bit cleaner and visually striking instead of rebooting or porting franchises that people actually care about. Although it hasn't been officially confirmed that a Horizon Zero Dawn remaster is coming, it's quite likely since the rumor has been floating around since 2022. People now believe this is happening because the supposed remastered version has been rated by the ESRB, listening to PC and PlayStation 5 as the platforms. In the latest Game […]
No Apple TV+ subscriber living in the U.S. or U.K. can view any ads on the streaming platform, but there is a possibility that all of this will change in the future. According to a new report, the technology giant is in talks with relevant authorities regarding the data collection of users required for monitoring advertising results.

There have been efforts to bring an ad-supported option to Apple TV+ in the U.S. since […]
The first season of Severance aired in 2022, and with a total of nine episodes, it quickly racked up immense popularity, but at a major financial setback. We reported earlier that Apple TV+ production costs have reached a stage where churning out original content has become unsustainable for the technology giant.

One example where costs skyrocketed was when the latest estimates revealed that Severance cost $20 million per episode, making it one of […]

Unfortunately, these costs have ballooned out of control. According to the latest report, an Apple executive wants this business to become more sustainable, which is why that individual has sought the help of Hollywood studio chiefs to watch the company’s budgets more carefully and introduce a path toward profitability. Apple’s senior VP of services, Eddy Cue, is pushing two studio executives to […]
