Due to its limited capabilities when compared to more powerful consoles &#8212; like the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One &#8212; the Nintendo Switch challenged Ubisoft to create a unique game specifically tailored for the much-loved gaming machine. The question now is whether the French video game publisher will continue to create tailor-fit games for the Switch or decide to bring its already-established franchises to Nintendo&#8217;s portable console.</p> <p>At E3, Ubisoft&#8217;s CEO, Yves Guillemot, addressed questions about the future of the French game developer&#8217;s partnership with Nintendo, particularly its portable hybrid Switch console. One of the questions Guillemot expertly answered was whether Ubisoft would bring one of its franchises to the Switch. The CEO did not make any promises and avoided sharing any details about established titles being ported to the Nintendo Switch, as <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/06/ubisofts_ceo_shares_views_on_partnership_with_nintendo_and_state_of_the_video_game_industry"><em>Nintendo Life</em></a> shared.</p><p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4956842/ubisofts-mario-rabbids-port-could-start-a-trend-for-tailor-fit-games-for-the-nintendo-switch/">Click here to continue and read more...</a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~4/LAUKJuGoP7s" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> https://www.inquisitr.com/4956842/ubisofts-mario-rabbids-port-could-start-a-trend-for-tailor-fit-games-for-the-nintendo-switch/feed/ 0 https://www.inquisitr.com/4956842/ubisofts-mario-rabbids-port-could-start-a-trend-for-tailor-fit-games-for-the-nintendo-switch/ http://feeds.inquisitr.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~3/d_QBD8gTTD8/ https://www.inquisitr.com/4956382/summer-games-done-quick-charity-event-kicks-off-today/#respond Sun, 24 Jun 2018 20:28:24 +0000 https://www.inquisitr.com/?p=4956382 <p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4956382/summer-games-done-quick-charity-event-kicks-off-today/" title="Summer Games Done Quick Charity Event Kicks Off Today"><img width="950" height="460" src="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/DgePBB4UEAE93kt.jpg" class="attachment-single-leader size-single-leader wp-post-image" alt="The Summer Games Done Quick 2018 charity event begins" srcset="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/DgePBB4UEAE93kt.jpg 950w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/DgePBB4UEAE93kt-670x324.jpg 670w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/DgePBB4UEAE93kt-768x372.jpg 768w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/DgePBB4UEAE93kt-625x302.jpg 625w" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" /></a></p> <p>Earlier today, the Summer Games Done Quick charity event kicked off at the DoubleTree Hilton in Bloomington, Minnesota. The second part of the annual Games Done Quick speedrunning series, speedrunners from all over will come together to raise money for charity, <a href="https://www.polygon.com/2018/6/23/17494370/summer-games-done-quick-2018-where-to-watch-schedule-preview"><em>Polygon</em></a> reports.</p> <p>For the uninitiated, speedrunning is the act of playing through a video game, with the intent to complete it as quickly as possible. Some speedruns may cover an entire game, while others may cover smaller sections, or single levels. Some speedruns are characterized by specific rules and regulations that players must abide by, ranging from collecting all key items, abstaining from using glitches or bugs in order to cut down on completion time, or fully finishing a game by collecting all key items and finishing all in-game quests and events (sometimes referred to as getting 100 percent).</p><p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4956382/summer-games-done-quick-charity-event-kicks-off-today/">Click here to continue and read more...</a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~4/d_QBD8gTTD8" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> https://www.inquisitr.com/4956382/summer-games-done-quick-charity-event-kicks-off-today/feed/ 0 https://www.inquisitr.com/4956382/summer-games-done-quick-charity-event-kicks-off-today/ http://feeds.inquisitr.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~3/jMK7Ai4ZRqY/ https://www.inquisitr.com/4954985/thanks-to-hackers-porn-is-now-showing-up-in-nintendos-super-mario-odyssey/#respond Sat, 23 Jun 2018 16:22:59 +0000 https://www.inquisitr.com/?p=4954985 <p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4954985/thanks-to-hackers-porn-is-now-showing-up-in-nintendos-super-mario-odyssey/" title="Thanks To Hackers, Explicit Images Are Now Showing Up In Nintendo&#039;s &#039;Super Mario Odyssey&#039;"><img width="950" height="460" src="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/smo.png" class="attachment-single-leader size-single-leader wp-post-image" alt="Screenshot from Super Mario Odyssey trailer" srcset="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/smo.png 950w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/smo-670x324.png 670w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/smo-768x372.png 768w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/smo-625x302.png 625w" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" /></a></p> <p>Gaming developer and publisher Nintendo has cultivated a reputation of being a family-friendly company, with most of their flagship titles carrying ratings suitable for all ages. In the past, they&#8217;ve banned controversial games from releasing on their platforms, and their system&#8217;s online capabilities are always designed with younger ones in mind. Much to the ire of some older games, the Nintendo Switch lacks voice chat and a proper messaging service.</p> <p>Still, it seems some are determined to introduce some rather questionable content into Nintendo&#8217;s online ecosystem. As reported by <em><a href="https://www.polygon.com/2018/6/22/17494552/nintendo-switch-hack-super-mario-odyssey-luigis-balloon-world" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Polygon</a>,</em> explicit images are now showing up in <em>Super Mario Odyssey,</em> the latest entry in the long-running platforming series. This comes as a result of a hack which was discovered earlier this week. Thankfully, it looks like the images are not affecting everyone.</p><p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4954985/thanks-to-hackers-porn-is-now-showing-up-in-nintendos-super-mario-odyssey/">Click here to continue and read more...</a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~4/jMK7Ai4ZRqY" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> https://www.inquisitr.com/4954985/thanks-to-hackers-porn-is-now-showing-up-in-nintendos-super-mario-odyssey/feed/ 0 https://www.inquisitr.com/4954985/thanks-to-hackers-porn-is-now-showing-up-in-nintendos-super-mario-odyssey/ http://feeds.inquisitr.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~3/DXqa1jYf49Q/ https://www.inquisitr.com/4954043/life-is-strange-2-will-debut-on-september-27/#respond Fri, 22 Jun 2018 20:21:34 +0000 https://www.inquisitr.com/?p=4954043 <p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4954043/life-is-strange-2-will-debut-on-september-27/" title="Life Is Strange 2 Will Debut On September 27"><img width="950" height="460" src="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Life-is-Strange-2.png" class="attachment-single-leader size-single-leader wp-post-image" alt="Life Is Strange 2 Logo" srcset="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Life-is-Strange-2.png 950w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Life-is-Strange-2-670x324.png 670w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Life-is-Strange-2-768x372.png 768w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Life-is-Strange-2-625x302.png 625w" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" /></a></p> <p><em>Life Is Strange 2,</em> the follow-up to DONTNOD Entertainment&#8217;s 2015 hit, is set to premiere this fall, as detailed on publisher Square Enix&#8217;s <a href="https://press.na.square-enix.com/releases/1210/life-is-strange-2-is-coming-september-27-2018" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a>.

As of this writing, the campaign has over 2,000 backers who have raised $39,477 for the Nintendo Switch&#8217;s &#8220;Flip Grip&#8221; to become a reality. The goal is $42,500. With only 17 days of the campaign to go, the accessory is almost certain to get the funding it needs.</p> <p>According to <a href="https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2018/6/21/17489520/nintendo-switch-flip-grip-accessory-vertical-arcade-games"><em>The Verge</em></a>, Jeremy Parish, Mike Choi, and the Fangamer gaming shop have collaborated to create the Kickstarter-backed Flip Grip. Parish is an author whose written various books on classic games, like <em>Super Mario Bros.</em> and <em>The Legend of Zelda</em>. Meanwhile, Choi is an artist who focuses on comic book art and video game concepts. He has worked for both DC Comics and Marvel Comics.</p> <p>The creators of the Nintendo Switch Flip Grip plans on selling the accessory for $15 a pop. Given that a decent gaming accessory for the console is worth about $10 to $20, this price seems reasonable.</p><p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4953157/nintendo-switch-flip-grip-comparisons-between-15-version-vs-free-version/">Click here to continue and read more...</a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~4/JIeufx0ChQw" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> https://www.inquisitr.com/4953157/nintendo-switch-flip-grip-comparisons-between-15-version-vs-free-version/feed/ 0 https://www.inquisitr.com/4953157/nintendo-switch-flip-grip-comparisons-between-15-version-vs-free-version/ http://feeds.inquisitr.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~3/Oo9FAc_9GEo/ https://www.inquisitr.com/4952743/the-starting-roster-for-super-smash-bros-ultimate-will-be-rather-small-on-nintendo-switch/#respond Thu, 21 Jun 2018 22:48:39 +0000 https://www.inquisitr.com/?p=4952743 <p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4952743/the-starting-roster-for-super-smash-bros-ultimate-will-be-rather-small-on-nintendo-switch/" title="The Starting Roster For &#039;Super Smash Bros.

The majority of those characters will come from being unlocked or downloadable content, and you can bet that Ridley from <em>Metroid</em> is one of the hardest to get.</p><p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4952743/the-starting-roster-for-super-smash-bros-ultimate-will-be-rather-small-on-nintendo-switch/">Click here to continue and read more...</a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~4/Oo9FAc_9GEo" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> https://www.inquisitr.com/4952743/the-starting-roster-for-super-smash-bros-ultimate-will-be-rather-small-on-nintendo-switch/feed/ 0 https://www.inquisitr.com/4952743/the-starting-roster-for-super-smash-bros-ultimate-will-be-rather-small-on-nintendo-switch/ http://feeds.inquisitr.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~3/ItnA2Z6SKss/ https://www.inquisitr.com/4952311/steam-summer-sale-2018-goes-live-offering-deep-discounts-on-pc-games-and-free-summer-saliens-game-with-prizes/#respond Thu, 21 Jun 2018 18:52:28 +0000 https://www.inquisitr.com/?p=4952311 <p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4952311/steam-summer-sale-2018-goes-live-offering-deep-discounts-on-pc-games-and-free-summer-saliens-game-with-prizes/" title="Steam Summer Sale 2018 Goes Live, Offering Deep Discounts On PC Games &amp; Free &#039;Summer Saliens&#039; Game With Prizes"><img width="950" height="460" src="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/STEAMSALE.jpg" class="attachment-single-leader size-single-leader wp-post-image" alt="" srcset="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/STEAMSALE.jpg 950w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/STEAMSALE-670x324.jpg 670w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/STEAMSALE-768x372.jpg 768w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/STEAMSALE-625x302.jpg 625w" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" /></a></p> <p>The Steam Summer Sale is the highlight of the year for many hardcore gamers with beastly desktop rigs and laptops, heralding a week of deeply discounted games from AAA titles to indie releases.</p> <p>Some big titles are already featured today at significantly reduced rates according to <a href="https://www.polygon.com/2018/6/21/17489038/steam-summer-sale-2018-dates-deals-valve-bundles"><em>Polygon</em></a>, including but not limited to:</p><p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4952311/steam-summer-sale-2018-goes-live-offering-deep-discounts-on-pc-games-and-free-summer-saliens-game-with-prizes/">Click here to continue and read more...</a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~4/ItnA2Z6SKss" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> https://www.inquisitr.com/4952311/steam-summer-sale-2018-goes-live-offering-deep-discounts-on-pc-games-and-free-summer-saliens-game-with-prizes/feed/ 0 https://www.inquisitr.com/4952311/steam-summer-sale-2018-goes-live-offering-deep-discounts-on-pc-games-and-free-summer-saliens-game-with-prizes/ http://feeds.inquisitr.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~3/gCpE4ucdOtc/ https://www.inquisitr.com/4952234/shots-fired-at-sony-with-new-cross-play-trailer-for-minecraft/#respond Thu, 21 Jun 2018 18:03:28 +0000 https://www.inquisitr.com/?p=4952234 <p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4952234/shots-fired-at-sony-with-new-cross-play-trailer-for-minecraft/" title="Shots Fired At Sony With New Cross-Play Trailer For &#039;Minecraft&#039;"><img width="950" height="460" src="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/mc.png" class="attachment-single-leader size-single-leader wp-post-image" alt="" srcset="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/mc.png 950w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/mc-670x324.png 670w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/mc-768x372.png 768w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/mc-625x302.png 625w" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" /></a></p> <p>Earlier today, Nintendo released a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0l8nJ_liqrw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">brand new trailer for <em>Minecraft</em></a> on Nintendo Switch, which showcases the game&#8217;s new cross-play capabilities. A new update has just been released for the ever-popular open-world game, which grants players the ability to play, craft, and explore with their friends across Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Windows 10, or mobile platforms.</p> <p>Up until now, cross-play had been limited to mobile editions and Microsoft platforms. However, the aptly named &#8220;Better Together&#8221; update has now been released for Nintendo Switch, unifying almost every platform together (save for legacy editions of <em>Minecraft</em>, including the Java Edition).</p> <p>Observant readers might notice that there is one publisher missing from the proceedings. In a move that is bound to induce more than a few eye rolls and gnashed teeth, publishing giant Sony continues to ban any sort of console cross-play on its platforms, in particular, on the PlayStation 4.</p><p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4952234/shots-fired-at-sony-with-new-cross-play-trailer-for-minecraft/">Click here to continue and read more...</a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~4/gCpE4ucdOtc" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> https://www.inquisitr.com/4952234/shots-fired-at-sony-with-new-cross-play-trailer-for-minecraft/feed/ 0 https://www.inquisitr.com/4952234/shots-fired-at-sony-with-new-cross-play-trailer-for-minecraft/ http://feeds.inquisitr.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~3/_JF68zOTvbE/ https://www.inquisitr.com/4949246/sony-introduces-new-discounted-line-of-games-called-playstation-hits/#respond Tue, 19 Jun 2018 20:21:13 +0000 https://www.inquisitr.com/?p=4949246 <p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4949246/sony-introduces-new-discounted-line-of-games-called-playstation-hits/" title="Sony Introduces New Discounted Line Of Games Called &#039;PlayStation Hits&#039;"><img width="950" height="460" src="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/playstation-hits-normal-hero-01-ps4-ca-08jun18_eng.jpg" class="attachment-single-leader size-single-leader wp-post-image" alt="A banner of PlayStation Hits games" srcset="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/playstation-hits-normal-hero-01-ps4-ca-08jun18_eng.jpg 950w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/playstation-hits-normal-hero-01-ps4-ca-08jun18_eng-670x324.jpg 670w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/playstation-hits-normal-hero-01-ps4-ca-08jun18_eng-768x372.jpg 768w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/playstation-hits-normal-hero-01-ps4-ca-08jun18_eng-625x302.jpg 625w" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" /></a></p> <p>During E3 2018, Sony shed more details on a handful of upcoming titles that are due for release over the next couple of years, including <em>Spider-Man, The Last of Us Part II, Death Stranding,</em> and <em>Ghost of Tsushima.</em> Still, even with plenty of games to look forward to on the horizon, the publishing giant hasn&#8217;t forgotten about its ever-growing back catalog of games.</p><p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4949246/sony-introduces-new-discounted-line-of-games-called-playstation-hits/">Click here to continue and read more...</a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~4/_JF68zOTvbE" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> https://www.inquisitr.com/4949246/sony-introduces-new-discounted-line-of-games-called-playstation-hits/feed/ 0 https://www.inquisitr.com/4949246/sony-introduces-new-discounted-line-of-games-called-playstation-hits/ http://feeds.inquisitr.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~3/dsYAn2PPMmQ/ https://www.inquisitr.com/4947461/2k-games-announces-aj-styles-as-wwe-2k19-cover-superstar-reveals-worldwide-release-date/#respond Mon, 18 Jun 2018 17:31:54 +0000 https://www.inquisitr.com/?p=4947461 <p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4947461/2k-games-announces-aj-styles-as-wwe-2k19-cover-superstar-reveals-worldwide-release-date/" title="2K Games Announces AJ Styles As &#039;WWE 2K19&#039; Cover Superstar, Reveals Worldwide Release Date"><img width="950" height="460" src="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/AJ-Styles.jpg" class="attachment-single-leader size-single-leader wp-post-image" alt="2K Games Announces AJ Styles As &#039;WWE 2K19&#039; Cover Superstar, Reveals Worldwide Release Date" srcset="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/AJ-Styles.jpg 950w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/AJ-Styles-670x324.jpg 670w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/AJ-Styles-768x372.jpg 768w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/AJ-Styles-625x302.jpg 625w" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" /></a></p> <p>It&#8217;s official — <em>WWE 2K19</em> is going to be &#8220;phenomenal,&#8221; and that&#8217;s because 2K Games&#8217; latest installment in its long-running wrestling video game series will feature reigning WWE Champion AJ Styles as its cover superstar.</p> <p>2K Games made the announcement on Monday morning, as it confirmed at a press conference that Styles will be joining the likes of John Cena, Brock Lesnar, and Seth Rollins as a <em>WWE 2K</em> cover superstar and appearing on the series&#8217; latest title when it comes out later this year.

Second, some players are still experiencing matchmaking errors.</p> <h2>PS4 Players Left Out From <em>Fornite</em> Fun On The Switch</h2> <p>Reggie Fils-Aime, the president and COO of Nintendo America, told <a href="https://www.polygon.com/e3/2018/6/13/17460468/fortnite-nintendo-switch-downloads-2-million"><em>Polygon</em></a> that over 2 million gamers downloaded <em>Fortnite</em> on the Nintendo Switch within 24 hours.</p> <p>&#8220;I think that speaks to the power of the franchise, the engagement of our players and the resonance of being able to play it anytime, anywhere,&#8221; said Fils-Aime.</p> <p>The Switch&#8217;s accessibility and portability is definitely one of its most attractive features for gamers.

As a teaser trailer played during a broadcast of post-apocalyptic sci-fi anime &#8220;DARLING in the FRANXX,&#8221; long-time fans of &#8220;Kill la Kill&#8221; were finally rewarded for their patience with the much-anticipated reveal of a video game adaptation according to <a href="http://www.siliconera.com/2018/06/16/kill-la-kill-game-revealed-trigger-x-arc-system-works-project/"><em>Silicon Era</em></a>.</p> <p>Referred to rather simply as <em>Kill La Kill The Game</em> at present, the trailer lays out familiar fare for fighting game fans and anime buffs alike. Series mainstays Ryuko, Hoka, Uzu, Ira, and Nonon make appearances, amongst others. One criticism being levied at present is that much of the material shown in the teaser trailer is simply cut from the existing anime, with basic voice-over work explaining the news laid overtop. No actual gameplay or even in-game engine footage is shown during the short, 30-second clip.</p><p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4944525/kill-la-kill-video-game-to-be-published-by-arc-system-works-developed-by-a-teaser-trailer-reveals/">Click here to continue and read more...</a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~4/aFwTqRsttY0" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> https://www.inquisitr.com/4944525/kill-la-kill-video-game-to-be-published-by-arc-system-works-developed-by-a-teaser-trailer-reveals/feed/ 0 https://www.inquisitr.com/4944525/kill-la-kill-video-game-to-be-published-by-arc-system-works-developed-by-a-teaser-trailer-reveals/ http://feeds.inquisitr.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~3/_O0-a_JidIA/ https://www.inquisitr.com/4941508/microsoft-reveals-new-xbox-scarlett-to-be-released-for-sale-in-2020-kicking-off-new-console-generation/#respond Thu, 14 Jun 2018 16:49:13 +0000 https://www.inquisitr.com/?p=4941508 <p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4941508/microsoft-reveals-new-xbox-scarlett-to-be-released-for-sale-in-2020-kicking-off-new-console-generation/" title="Microsoft Reveals New Xbox Scarlett To Be Released For Sale In 2020, Kicking Off New Console Generation"><img width="950" height="460" src="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/NEWXBOX.jpg" class="attachment-single-leader size-single-leader wp-post-image" alt="" srcset="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/NEWXBOX.jpg 950w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/NEWXBOX-670x324.jpg 670w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/NEWXBOX-768x372.jpg 768w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/NEWXBOX-625x302.jpg 625w" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" /></a></p> <p>In a number of leaked documents that recently required Microsoft&#8217;s Xbox boss Phil Spencer to briefly acknowledge and verify at least some of the information contained within, the tech giant has plans to release a new Xbox console in 2020, according to <a href="https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/06/microsoft-andromeda-this-year-new-hololens-in-2019-and-the-next-xbox-in-2020/"><em>Ars Technica</em></a>.</p> <figure id="attachment_4941567" style="max-width: 670px" class="wp-caption none"><div class="attachment-image-wrapper"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4941567" src="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/NEWXBOX2-670x447.jpg" alt="" width="670" height="447" srcset="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/NEWXBOX2-670x447.jpg 670w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/NEWXBOX2-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/NEWXBOX2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/NEWXBOX2.jpg 1386w" sizes="(max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px" /><figcaption class="wp-caption-credit"> &nbsp; <cite> <span class="ic--photographer-name">Christian Petersen</span> <span class="ic--separator">/</span> <a class="ic--image-source-url" href="https://www.gettyimages.ca/license/971147148" rel="nofollow noopener">Getty Images</a> </cite> </figcaption></div></figure> <p>With speculation wildly suggesting that the Xbox Scarlett would signify the birth of a new console line-up, making it the ninth console generation officially, there is a lot riding on the success of a flagging Xbox brand. <a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4921732/xbox-one-is-losing-the-console-war-being-outsold-by-playstation-4-by-ratio-of-over-21-in-2017/"><em>Inquisitr</em></a> recently reported on stated sales numbers for both the Sony PlayStation 4 and the current iterations of the Xbox One, showing a huge gulf between the two in units sold in Sony&#8217;s favor.

Unfortunately, there were some games fans were eager to hear about which were not discussed or even brought up. Among those games were highly anticipated titles <em>Final Fantasy VII Remake</em> and <em>Titanfall 3</em>.</p> <p>According to PC Gamer, there was no mention of <em>Final Fantasy VII Remake</em> and <em>Titanfall 3</em> at E3 2018. Franchises like <em>Final Fantasy</em> and <em>Titanfall</em> have a large fan base who were probably surprised that these games were absent at the E3 roster. However, there may have been a good reason for the games&#8217; no-shows.</p> <h2><em>Final Fantasy VII Remake</em></h2> <p>News about the 1990 blockbuster JRPG may have been among the most anticipated details at E3 this year. The game&#8217;s remake was first announced several years ago at Sony&#8217;s PSX 2015 event.</p><p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4940776/why-final-fantasy-vii-remake-and-titanfall-3-were-absent-at-e3/">Click here to continue and read more...</a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~4/GY2ha63fv8c" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> https://www.inquisitr.com/4940776/why-final-fantasy-vii-remake-and-titanfall-3-were-absent-at-e3/feed/ 0 https://www.inquisitr.com/4940776/why-final-fantasy-vii-remake-and-titanfall-3-were-absent-at-e3/ http://feeds.inquisitr.com/~r/TheInquisitrGaming/~3/okoFVE3zjFE/ https://www.inquisitr.com/4940686/father-of-cyberpunk-william-gibson-throws-shade-at-cyberpunk-2077-as-generic-gta-re-skin/#respond Wed, 13 Jun 2018 23:46:19 +0000 https://www.inquisitr.com/?p=4940686 <p><a href="https://www.inquisitr.com/4940686/father-of-cyberpunk-william-gibson-throws-shade-at-cyberpunk-2077-as-generic-gta-re-skin/" title="Father Of Cyberpunk William Gibson Throws Shade At &#039;Cyberpunk 2077&#039; As Generic GTA Re-Skin"><img width="950" height="460" src="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/CYBERPUNK.jpg" class="attachment-single-leader size-single-leader wp-post-image" alt="" srcset="https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/CYBERPUNK.jpg 950w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/CYBERPUNK-670x324.jpg 670w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/CYBERPUNK-768x372.jpg 768w, https://cdn.inquisitr.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/CYBERPUNK-625x302.jpg 625w" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" /></a></p> <p>Considered by many to be the &#8220;Father of Cyberpunk&#8221; and undoubtedly a pioneer in the subversive genre, William Gibson doesn&#8217;t often opine on video games but did take the time to offer up a hot take on the upcoming AAA title Cyberpunk 2077.
