Will be interesting to see where it goes. Mostly I’m just happy to see anything escape the clutches of Embracer Group.

I cringe whenever I see Japanese game titles with “Re;whatever”.

kaboom36,

This is good to me. I thought Hogwarts legacy was great on the switch given the hardware

Revan343, to nintendo in Nintendo to acquire Shiver Entertainment from Embracer Group

This is great, more cross-platform games is always better

Huh, Nintendo doesn’t usually make acquisitions like this. At least it’s smarter than Sony and Microsoft.

Hopefully this makes them improve Mortal Kombat 1 on Switch 😅

Huh, that’s an interesting acquisition. Sounds like Nintendo wants to have a hand in porting third party games to it’s systems.

Oh please freaking do it. I bet the Ghost of Tsushima sales figures are doing most of the encouraging right now but I’d love to not wait four years for this too. Already nervous about how long Rise of the Ronin will take.

Fingers crossed for a new Sid Meier's Pirates.

So weird that’s the second time this week I see this game referenced. I would be so happy with a new one!

I just get this feeling that the time for live service games like this has come and gone.

Civ VII already?

I’m leaning towards that, but they did announce in February of last year that the next Civ game was in development.

TachyonTele,

List of 2K games:
BioShock (since 2007).
Borderlands (since 2009).
Civilization (since 2005).
Mafia (since 2010).
X-COM (since 2012).
NBA 2K (since 2005).
PGA Tour 2K (since 2018).
WWE 2K (since 2013).
Top Spin (2005–2011, since 2024.

It’s gotta be either Civ or Borderlands. And I’m only including Borderlands because of that show or movie or whatever it is. They already confirmed Bioshock and Mafia being worked on. The sports games would never be teased like this. And then there’s XCOM… which thankfully 2 is amazing.

And then there’s XCOM… which thankfully 2 is amazing.

Really? It wouldn’t play on my machine back when it first came out so I returned it and never went back after seeing a ton of negative reviews about the timed missions. Did they update that part or was the bad feedback overblown?

TachyonTele,

Oh man I have a couple thousand hours logged in on that game. It’s beautiful.

You get past the “timed” missions as soon as you learn how to play the game. They’re a non-issue. I honestly completely forgot about that until you just brought it up.

restingboredface,

Oh awesome. I’ll have to try it again. I have a couple hundred hours in xcom 1 and play long war from time to time. Exciting to have a ‘new’ game to play!

SchmidtGenetics,

Pitchford confirmed BL4 last year or before.

TachyonTele,

If it was that long ago it’s probably that then.

If it IS a new XCOM game I’ll eat a pizza.
I like pizza.

SchmidtGenetics,

I dislike wordplays like this. So if BL4 has been announced by pitchford (gearbox) could this announcement be the same thing, but since it’s them announcing it it’s “new”?

Or is it actually something no one has previously confirmed.

I get they use wordplays specifically like this to be vague and leave more options for speculation though.

djsoren19,

I mean, Solomon left recently, who I kinda consider the reason those XCOM remakes were so good. Not sure if I’d really be that excited by a third entry.

TachyonTele,

Exactly, I agree. I would be very weary of a new one.

FalseMyrmidon,

I thought Gearbox self-published Borderlands 3? It's gotta be civ7.

As an aside, man 2k doesn't have shit going for them. I thought they were a much larger publisher than that.

TachyonTele,

Right? I was surprised by the list too. I know NBA is goddamn money printer though. That and Civ probably pay the bills for them these days. I don’t even know what Top Spin is.

ma11en,

It’s a Tennis game.

TachyonTele,

Oh thanks. I think we found the new golden franchise!

ma11en,

It looks like they released Top Spin 2K25 less than a month ago.

New Dora the Explorer game, you read it here first.

@vulgarcynic@sh.itjust.works avatar

The first one has its flaws, especially in combat and pacing. But this is pretty much any spiders game.

That said, they did a really good job creating lore and a world that was fun to explore and live in. Looking forward to this sequel.

fckreddit, to pcgaming in Beyblade X: XONE announced for Switch, PC

What kind of name is this? Does this stand for ’Beyblade X Xbox One’?

DebatableRaccoon,

That’s exactly what I’d think if it was an Xbox exclusive

leaky_shower_thought,

looks like a naming-marketing gimmick.

it is pronounced as “x-zone”.
