Last week, Ubisoft made headlines when it shut down its Halifax studio, which not only put 71 developers out of a job, but those developers had just unionized two days prior. Today, Ubisoft is continuing this trend by proposing to lay off even more people, this time at its subsidiaries Massive Entertainment and Ubisoft Stockholm. According to a statement provided to IGN, the restructuring would impact "approximately" 55 workers at the two Swedish studios, but the timeline of this restructuring is unclear. Ubisoft also claims that "the long-term direction for the studios remains unchanged," and doesn't suggest that any ongoing projects, such as the development of The Divis…

Peter Molyneux, the mind behind the Fable series, Populous, and Black & White, announced his next game, Masters of Albion, during Gamescom 2024. His next – and final – game is coming to PC on April 22. Masters of Albion comes from Molyneux’s studio, 22 Cans, and blends elements of real-time strategy, town management, and simulation to an experience Molyneux describes as “the culmination of my life’s work,” in a press release. Players take on the role of a powerful god possessing a “god hand” capable of designing and building entire villages from the ground-up. Buildings can be customized, and different types of structures can be combined to form new building types. A…

Baldur's Gate 3 is one of the most celebrated games of the past decade, so it's no wonder fans want to play it on as many platforms as possible. While it's available to play on Valve's Steam Deck handheld, last year's Switch 2 launch had many wondering whether it would make the jump to Nintendo's new platform as well. Hopes only raised higher with the recent announcement that Baldur's Gate 3 developer Larian's previous game, Divinity Original Sin II, would come to modern platforms, including the Switch 2. However, it seems that the D&D adaptation is likely not going to follow in its footsteps. The news comes from a recent Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) in which some me…
