The big budget MMO which failed to last long with the traditional monthly paid subscription model before going partly free-to-play launched its Galactic Starfighter expansion in December for subscribes and this week it's now available to everyone, even the FTP play
The 75-person team at Double Helix Games, developers of the Xbox One launch title Killer Instinct , have been acquired by Amazon. In recent years Amazon has been expanding into entertainment, attempting to launch their own exclusive TV series, and now they're interested in video games as well. Is this another stepping stone on Amazon's path to potentially launching their own rumored game cons
While these bizarre choices to keep certain games longer in the dark than others could be interpreted as Sony having faith in their first-parties to be big sellers without any additional marketing above and beyond the necessary, it instead tends to come across as ignorance at the clear bounty Sony has at their disposal. Fortunately, Sony’s mistakes during the past year have the luxury of being labeled as an "off-year" and can be completely disregarded as Sony continues to make plans for the next year in marketing. If Sony can reinstate a focus on E3 and PSX being the dates for fans to salivate at, and making sure their first-party titles can present something substantial in-between these six month gaps in at least one of the two events, as Sony has proven they can over the past few years, the publisher can return to being the giant to topple at some of the year’s biggest industry events.
Developer Riot Games has gone to great lengths over the past few months in an effort to keep their 67 million-strong playerbase in line by rewarding good behavior and encouraging reform when players don't abide by the rules. Most notably, Riot recently began doling out free champion skins to players who hadn't been banned from the game (or received a chat ban) in a set period of time and if a player wasn't eligible for the reward then they'd be able to improve their behavior in time for the next one. Riot also nixed permanent bans for competitive players, instead giving out 'indefinite' bans so that players could have their case reviewed after a minimum of two competitive seas

Throughout the year, gaming conventions offer a great opportunity for publishers to unveil and highlight their upcoming lineup for the months ahead. While these anticipated events are often few and far between, each one presents a unique opportunity to showcase the titles fan should keep an eye on, and choosing which games to focus on can often be an overwhelming task. Fans’ desires will rarely line up with the actual schedule for a game’s development and ultimate release, leading to lengthy periods of radio silence followed by a disproportionate amount of details to share that can coincide with equally intriguing releases at the same time. This balancing act is a constant struggle to maintain, particularly due to the unpredictable nature of game development, leading to the inevitable outcome that certain press conferences will prove to be less memorable than others due to the availability of news and announcements.
Like many other eSports titles, popular MOBA League of Legends has an issue with player toxicity. However, League in particular has a bad reputation as its bad behavior seems to permeate the game at every level. It's not uncommon to hear abuse from the game's most popular streamers and even professional League of Legends players have been barred from the game for it, with Nicolaj "Incarnati0n" Jensen and Khaled "DarkwinJax" Abusagr having previously been punis
