In this episode, we delve into significant shifts within the gaming industry. Warner Bros. Games has announced the closure of three of its studios—Monolith Productions, Player First Games, and WB Games San Diego—and the cancellation of the highly anticipated Wonder Woman game. This strategic move aims to refocus efforts on key franchises such as Harry Potter, Mortal Kombat, DC (primarily Batman), and Game of Thrones.
Additionally, Microsoft has postponed the release of the Fable reboot to 2026. Head of Xbox Game Studios, Craig Duncan, expressed confidence in Playground Games' development progress, emphasizing that the extra time will ensure a high-quality gaming experience. Listeners can also look forward to insights into the newly revealed pre-alpha gameplay footage.
We also discuss Ubisoft's response to the premature leak of Assassin's Creed Shadows, urging the community to avoid sharing spoilers and highlighting the company's commitment to delivering a polished final product.
Finally, we address recent speculations surrounding the Nintendo Switch 2, clarifying that retailer leaks regarding its launch date and pricing are unfounded, as such details remain undisclosed even to major retailers.
Join us as we explore these developments and their potential impact on the gaming landscape.
