Content Warning Is Hiding Players’ Footage in the Game for Other Players to Find

It's been a fascinating journey for the developers behind indie game studio Evening Star. Much of the crew got their humble starts working together on Sonic the Hedgehog fan games. Their work was so highly regarded that they would eventually be recruited by Sega to develop Sonic Mania, a throwback to the franchise's 2D heyday that would go on to become the highest rated Sonic game in over 25 years.

@Th3solution It is the lighting model, had they used the one in the initial reveal trailers then you would be saying «wow this world looks really warm and inviting»

Royale-battler Fortnite will soon allow players to hide a handful of emotes the developers concede are "sometimes used in confrontational ways".

Well, turns out people don't like being laughed at.

While Xbox Game Pass is set to gain a selection of fantastic Day-One releases in the back half of April, subscribers may want to act fast to play the six games leaving the service in the coming weeks. To offset the amount of titles the platform offers, Microsoft always removes a handful of games whenever it brings in a new selection for players to experience. While that might sound like a bad deal, it makes sense given the already massive catalog on offer and users can still pick up the departing games for a discount before they eventually leave.

Sony is reportedly asking developers to get their games ready for PS5 Pro optimization, including existing titles and ones still in development.

Ubisoft has responded to the ongoing backlash against the Star Wars Outlaws season pass, insisting Jabba the Hutt is part of the experience for all players.

Numerous games in the Fallout series have seen their player counts dramatically rise following the release of the Fallout TV show.
