Riot Games walked into a PR blunder by excluding those who identify as men from a panel they set up for PAX West. Cue row and internet rage. Cue fans and Riot staff going back and forth in threads and tweets. Cue facepalms from onlookers.
Former Deviation Games developers have formed a new studio at Sony Interactive Entertainment in order to work on a brand new PlayStation IP.
Well that's an awesome and very surprising turnaround. Cheers to the new studio and what they'll build!
That's..... confusing, so shut down but just reformed and same employer 🤔 sounds like pretty much what happened to Japan Studio basically just being rebranded as Asobi
Good for them that they were able to work it out. Hopefully they're developing something interesting.
Microsoft & Xbox have shut down Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks to lay off more workers, insinuating that they're not in the game anymore.

Everyone's acting now that game companies care about games and Xbox is committing the Ultimate betrayal, they are all like this and you have just been quiet about it for far too long
I wonder if Microsoft do pull out of the console market that it might open the door for valve to relaunch the Steambox. Competition is good for the industry but Microsoft don't even seem to be trying anymore.
“Your game has won some pretty significant awards and is a show piece for where we want to go in the future.”

Insider Gaming sat down with MADFINGER games to talk about Gray Zone Warfare's about the state of the game, its early success, and its future.
The Reddit page is on fire, I can't believe the total spin they've done after reports of sexism within their studio surfaced...now they are doing shit like this while showing their own virtue on twitter. They are basically doing this to cover their own asses over those sexism claims from within the studio, it's PR stunt.
Sexism should not be fought with sexism...it's ridiculous.

It boggles my mind how they didn't see this coming.....
A prime example of self-sabotage if ever there was one.
Dismissals do not help when we are attempting to grow as a people.
Good!!! Stop forcing talent through gender politics.
