Epic Fined Again, AC Shadows Revealed, & Animal Well's Surprise Success M2 Podcast

    • Videojogos

In our latest episode of "Bits, Bytes, and Banter," we dive deep into the current turbulence in the gaming industry. First, we discuss Epic Games facing yet another fine, this time $1.2 million from the Dutch Authority for Consumers & Markets, for exploiting children with Fortnite's microtransactions. We then shift to Ubisoft's major announcements and cancellations, including the reveal of Assassin's Creed Shadows, which introduces dual protagonists—a samurai and a shinobi—and the surprising cancellation of The Division Heartland. Additionally, we marvel at the breakout success of Animal Well, a critically acclaimed Metroidvania that's only 34MB in size. Join us as we break down these headlines and explore what they mean for the future of gaming.
