Frontier shares plunge 20% after weak launch for its new Warhammer game
27.11.2023 - 20:49 / videogameschronicle.com
Shares in Frontier Developments fell by over 20% on Monday after the company delivered a disappointing trading update.
The Cambridge, UK-based studio said sales of its new real-time strategy game Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin were lower than expected since its November 17 release for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
Following the game’s weak launch, Frontier has downwardly revised its revenue guidance for its current financial year (FY24) ending on May 31, 2024, from around £108 million to in the range of £80-95 million.
It said the outcome would be dependent on sales performance across its game portfolio, including contributions from new platform releases for existing titles.
Founded in 1994 by Elite co-creator David Braben, Frontier is best known for the space flight series and its management sims like Planet Zoo, Jurassic World Evolution and Planet Coaster.
It said the latter three titles, as well as Jurassic World Evolution 2, “continue to perform well”, and confirmed plans to release a new management sim in each of its next three financial years – FY25, FY26 and FY27.
Frontier plans to continue developing and supporting Elite Dangerous, its F1 Manager franchise, and Realms of Ruin. The latter will receive new content, including paid DLC, and the company said it expects sales “to build over time”.
Last month, Frontier announced it was conducting an “organisational review” that would result in a recruitment freeze, spending cuts and redundancies, subject to consultation.
The company said today that it expects to at least break even in FY25.
“I am confident that our renewed focus on CMS will return Frontier back to profitability, deliver stimulating games to our players, and provide rewarding opportunities for our people,” said Frontier CEO Jonny Watts.
“I’d like to thank our people and our shareholders for their patience and support as we go through a challenging period of change.”

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora Review
Short of somehow growing a Na’vi neural braid and jamming it directly into the base of James Cameron’s skull, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is pretty much your best option for taking a virtual tour of the stunning alien moon of Pandora. This open-world shooter serves up a mind bogglingly large slice of the fantastic fictional universe to explore, from staggeringly dense forest areas to picturesque open plains and properly intimidating mountain ranges both on land and suspended impossibly in the skies above. However, hidden amongst all that beauty is a disappointing amount of bloat, with copy-pasted enemy outposts and facilities that made venturing off the main story path far less rewarding than it has been in recent landmark adventures such as Elden Ring or the last two Legend of Zeldas. I still largely enjoyed the 25 hours I spent trying to fend off a resource-hungry human invasion, but I wish the environment itself had presented me with more compelling reasons to fight for it beyond its surface-level splendor.

Google Gemini AI model launch delayed amidst challenges: Report
In a surprising turn of events, Google has decided to postpone the highly-anticipated launch of its AI model, Google Gemini AI. Initially scheduled for release next week, the company has now rescheduled the launch to January. The initial announcement had come months ago during the annual I/O 2023 conference, where Google, alongside Alphabet co-founder Sergey Brin, introduced Gemini, the latest addition to its AI portfolio. The decision to delay the launch was attributed to concerns about the AI model's non-reliability in handling non-English queries. Sundar Pichai, Google's CEO, personally opted for the delay to ensure the global language support is robust, aiming to surpass the capabilities of OpenAI's GPT-4.

Comedy TV show Taskmaster is getting its own VR game, and I can't stop thinking about how Greg Davies looks like he should be a tank hero in Overwatch 2
I suppose it was only a matter of time before Taskmaster got its own VR game. The game show, in case you're unfamiliar with it, is about giving celebrities and comedians increasingly absurd tasks to fulfil—with very few clues on how to get those tasks done.
