The AirTags were originally launched to help keep track of your items or expensive belongings if they ever got lost, misplaced, or stolen, but thanks to Apple’s vast Find My network, these devices have been included in a number of nefarious activities. Though Apple has done its best to implement anti-stalking countermeasures, it has not prevented three victims from filing a class action lawsuit against the company, claiming that these trackers are the weapon of choice for stalkers and abusers.

Steam Next Fest is well underway, but one of the digital event’s must-play demos is an unexpectedly great horror CRPG.

Aspyr Media announced a remake of in 2021. However, the games have since faced delays and a studio change, with Saber Interactive taking over in 2022. Now, Sony cites expired music licenses to explain the recent delisting of the game’s trailer and removal of social media posts.

Sony has announced another Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 PlayStation 5 console bundle.

The Star Wars KOTOR Remake isn't in a good place. So far, we've only seen a short teaser trailer that doesn't really tell us anything about the game. Then, the project was taken away from its previous developer, Aspyr, reportedly over concerns about the game's slow development. Now, as yet another year passes with no KOTOR Remake updates - aside from the announcement trailer being taken down by Sony - many fear that the game has been shelved entirely.

There have been plenty of question marks regarding the future of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic – Remake over the last year or so, given the development issues being faced by the game behind-the-scenes, and they were recently exacerbated when its announcement trailer on the official PlayStation YouTube channel was set to private, along with PlayStation’s tweet about the game also being removed.

First announced two years ago, at Sony’s showcase in 2021,Star Wars: The Old Republic’s remake is seemingly being officially scrubbed from around the internet. Could the project be another casualty as part of Embracer Group’s reorganization?

Some new evidence has suggested that the remake could be in real trouble. The Embracer Group and Aspyr Media, the developer behind many ports — including the original on Nintendo Switch — announced the PS5 console exclusive remake as part of the September 2021 PlayStation Showcase. However, it has had a somewhat turbulent development since, with Aspyr's parent company, Saber Interactive, taking over development last year.

Sony has hidden the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake trailer and deleted the game's initial announcements posts online.

Worrying signs on the horizon for fans of sci-fi stories told a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. Sony have quietly yanked posts and videos for Embracer's Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake, in what could be the first indication that the publisher have finally cancelled the game, after shuffling developers and delaying release indefinitely last year.

The Star Wars KOTOR remake, announced back in 2021, might have just been canceled. One of the greatest RPGs, the original Knights of the Old Republic – created by Mass Effect developer-to-be BioWare – is an icon of PC gaming. A full remake, originally helmed by Aspyr, was revealed at a Sony showcase two years ago. But now trailers and pages connected to the game have seemingly been removed from the internet, as the Embracer Group, which owns the studio behind the supposed KOTOR remake, institutes far-reaching cuts and closures.
