SG 244 | UBISOFT CANCELA 7 VIDEOJUEGOS + XBOX DEFINE SU FUTURO
Episode notes
The show opens with Meta's virtual-reality situation, discussing studio closures, its shift toward mixed reality, and the continued development of MetaQuest 4. The participants then revisit their experience with Kingdom Come: Deliverance and Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, comparing the first game's demanding nature, directional combat, and technical issues with the sequel's improvements.
The main segment focuses on Ubisoft. They analyze its restructuring into five creative houses, the cancellations and studio closures, and debate whether these adjustments could foreshadow an acquisition. They also criticize the repetition of open-world formulas and reliance on established franchises while reviewing the series associated with the new divisions.
In Xbox news, they expect updates on Fable and discuss Beast of Reincarnation, State of Decay 3, and a possible ad-supported cloud-gaming option. The final stretch gathers hardware and release news, including Crimson Desert, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Marathon, No Rest for the Wicked, and Life's Strange Reunion. They close with the Steam Awards and a discussion of Hollow Knight: Silksong's difficulty and completion figures compared with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.
