There comes a point in time for every video game console to be put out to pasture in order make way for the virile young bucks of the next generation. We’ve all seen it before; titles for the PlayStation 2 were retired so game designers could focus on the PlayStation 3, and the Xbox bowed out so that the Xbox 360 could step in. Now, with the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in play as the current-gen systems, it looks like the cycle is inescapable, and Square Enix isn’t going to be the one attempting to break it....

Epic has been granted a restraining order that prevents Unreal Engine’s removal from Apple’s platform, but Fortnite still isn’t coming back anytime soon. The legal battle between Epic and Apple continues, but at least it won’t take down any innocent bystanders. A temporary restraining order has prevented Apple from removing Epic from the Apple Developer Program, which means the Unreal Engine is protected from the ongoing litigation surrounding Fortnite. “Apple has chosen to act severely, and by doing so, has impacted non-parties, and a third-party developer ecosystem,” wrote US District Court Judge Rogers in her decision....

It seems the esteemed developer will be working on a new project set to debut on next-generation platforms in the years to come, with Mizuguchi announcing the existence of the untitled project during an interview with Famitsu magazine....
Last night, I noticed that 2015’s Rise of the Tomb Raider was on the Microsoft Store for six bucks. Sure, I’d already bought it physically on the OG Xbox One, the PS4, and the PC, but hey - what’s one more time for my (middle) namesake? And if you’ve just picked up an Xbox Series X, you might want to considering picking Rise up at this absolute steal of a price, too....
Ever since the Xbox Series X first launched, the console has come with a great many quality-of-life features that users are continuing to explore.

However, there are still a lot of features for the Xbox Series X that have yet to be revealed, and one feature, in particular, may be shown off sooner rather than later....

According to a Microsoft Insider on the ResetEra message boards, Microsoft is considering delaying the game until 2022 due to significant performance issues.

At the time, the developers explained that multiple factors contributed to the decision, but only specifically mentions Covid-19 related complications that have impacted their ability to work efficiently....
After the launch of Titanfall 2 and then being purchased by EA, news coming from Respawn Entertainment has scarce.

While there is certainly an abundance of rumors circulating around the next game in the series - thought to be entitled Call Of Duty Black Ops: Cold War - not much is confirmed at this point. As this rumored title suggests, there’s a chance that the game will be some kind of Black Ops reboot or sequel, but obviously it’s still all hypothetical. The latest talk is surrounding the potential reintroduction of a skill-based matchmaking system in this next installment, as suggested by Call of Duty leaker Tom Henderson yesterday on Twitter....
As gaming technology continues to make drastic leaps in performance, so too do the monitors displaying these achievements - and the Samsung CFG70 is one of the best. The Samsung CFG70 Curved Gaming Monitor can be a little innocuous out of the box. In a world where gaming monitors continue to get bigger and better, putting out a 24-inch high-performance gaming monitor can be a risky proposition. There was certainly the danger that the Samsung CFG70 could have gotten lost in the shuffle or forced into the shadows by much bigger monitors in the same price range....
