The Solitude Armor Set in Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree expansion is a hulking armor that not only looks cool but also provides you with some of the best damage negation around. This makes it an incredible choice for tanky builds looking to make t...
After finishing a frustrating boss fight in Funko Fusion against a never-ending stream of baddies in a grocery store, I was finally done with Hot Fuzz’s fourth level. I could move on. A cutscene played but the audio was missing. That happens a lot in t...

At the beginning of the year, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth launched a hell of an opening salvo. The latest installment in the long-running Like a Dragon/Yakuza series is comically full of things to do. On one hand, it’s a turn-based RPG epic, splitti...
It looks like Grand Theft Auto publisher Take-Two is trying to get rid of its indie label, Private Division. This is according to a new IGN report that details how the company’s recent studio closures and mismanagement have been “quietly killing” the i...
What happens when the boss of a massive video game publisher—in this case the company behind Grand Theft Auto and Borderlands—is asked a question about a PC port that is almost definitely going to happen but hasn’t been announced yet? You get a funny a...
GTA 6 sales likely won't be affected by the game's launch window, according to Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick. Yesterday, GTA 6 publisher and Rockstar owner Take-Two Interactive confirmed that the highly-anticipated next entry in the franchise would be released in the fall of 2025. Some hoped that the title would be released in early 2025, but that won't be the case. During the company's most recent earnings call with investors, CEO Straus Zelnick was asked whether a release during the 2025 holiday season would have an additive effect. According to Zelnick, releasing the game in early 2025 or late […]
Despite having the best-selling game of all time in Grand Theft Auto V, and GTA VI on the way, mega publisher Take-Two Interactive have been going through some belt-tightening, recently cutting 5 percent of its workforce and canceling some projects. When the news of the cuts were first announced, we didn’t know exactly who was impacted or which games had been canned, but we may now have a better idea. According to Bloomberg’s reliable Jason Schreier, internal documents he’s seen indicate that Take-Two plans to shut down developers Roll7 and Intercept Games. Roll7 was the developer of acclaimed titles like […]
Last month, Take-Two announced it was “rationalizing its pipeline” by cutting hundreds of jobs and cancelling $140 million worth of in-development projects. Today, it moved ahead with shutting down the studios behind Kerbal Space Program 2 and OlliOlli...
It's unfortunately time for yet another round of layoffs in the gaming industry as Take-Two Interactive announced a 5% reduction of its workforce. This translates to around 600 employees and follows similar reductions announced in the last few months by the likes of Epic Games, Riot Games, Microsoft, Sony, and Electronic Arts, not to mention many other such situations that occurred at smaller studios like Supermassive Games and Hidden Path Entertainment to name a couple. Here's the so-called 'Plan', or cost reduction program, as Take-Two outlined it in a newly released 8-K SEC filing: On April 16, 2024 the Board […]
Grand Theft Auto VI publisher Take-Two Interactive announced massive cuts in an SEC filing at the end of business today. The company revealed it will lay off 5 percent of its roughly 11,000-strong workforce and has cancelled several in-development proj...
We knew Gearbox Software was about to be sold by Embracer, and today, Take-Two announced it had reached an agreement to purchase the 25-year-old Texan developer for $460 million. That's a far cry from the $1.3 billion spent by Embracer just over three years ago, which likely speaks of the company's desperation to sell (despite already having sold Saber only two weeks ago). Still, there are some caveats. The transaction is said to exclude 'certain third-party publishing and other assets that the buyer considered superfluous to its business. Gearbox had started publishing third-party games like Tribes of Midgard, Remnant II, […]
It’s been over a decade since we’ve gotten a BioShock game and no official follow-up has been announced, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t something on the horizon for fans of the franchise. Upcoming shooter Judas looks to be a BioShock game in everyth...
Today Grand Theft Auto fans got news they’ve been eagerly awaiting for a very long time, when Rockstar officially announced the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI will arrive sometime in December. Meanwhile, today also saw Rockstar parent company Take-Two Interactive release their latest quarterly earnings, which included a few more tidbits about what’s happening at the GTA studio. Q2 2024, which ran from the beginning of July to the end of September, was a solid one for Take-Two, as they brought in $1.44 billion in revenue. That represents a small year-on-year decline, but is still respectable considering T2 […]
Bungie is the latest PlayStation studio to face layoffs. While the scale of the cuts wasn’t immediately apparent, multiple, now-former staff members began posting on social media on October 30 that they’d been let go by the beloved Destiny 2 maker. Rea...
