This is a play from MS to steal TLOU2 thunder with the same week release of the HIGHLY awaited Grounded demo! /S

rdgneoz31598d ago

From Outer World to Grounded... Maybe they should move on to Outer World 2 instead...

Ausbo1597d ago

Obsidian has 3 teams working on games. A new IP RPG, outer worlds 2, and this small group working on grounded

Spurg1597d ago

Obsidian has multiple teams
Team1(140-150): Pillars team who are making the next big Xbox game.
Team 2(36): The Outer worlds
Team 3(11): Grounded

TheRealFame1597d ago

They are working on Outer Worlds DLC, plus a new AAA game. Should be shown in july

aconnellan1597d ago

How about you try the demo and decide if it plays bad, rather than judging how it ‘looks’?

looks kind of fun. Like honey I shrunk the kids and ant bully.

cesar41598d ago (Edited 1598d ago )

No thanks.

Prubar1598d ago (Edited 1598d ago )

Looks like it might be fun but it’s not really my thing. I’ll wait for the AAA rpg.

King Nezz1597d ago

I found it to actually be enjoyable. Sucks that they give you a 30 minute limit.

TheHateTheyGive1597d ago

Its like dont starve but much better, the 30 minute limit does suck.

King_Noctis1597d ago

I haven’t started it myself yet, but like you said the 30 minute limit sucks. Might as well wait for the finished version.

Call of Duty Development Process Won't Change Under Microsoft;15 Studios Still Working on Franchise

Call of Duty’s development process will stay the same under Microsoft’s ownership, with no planned changes to its structure.

RaidenBlack7h ago

Now EA's following suit as well in order to compete with this CoD of a juggernaut sort of head 2 head ...
i.e employing 4+ studios for the next Battlefield game.
DICE for multiplayer, Criterion Games for single player/MP, Motive for single player, Ripple Effect for a "new experience".

Mr Pumblechook4h ago

Respect to Phil Spencer, it's because of his direct influence that Rossi was introduced.

RaidenBlack4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

And here I am just asking for a new Soldier of Fortune or Heretic ... but guess CoD even engulfed a whole studio for just gun trinkets

MetroidFREAK216h ago

I'm so glad I got out of the CoD hell hole

Eonjay6h ago

Thats... a lot of teams. That's why it's so hard to compete with COD. It's also why PlayStation is so vital to Xbox now. That's a lot of people who need to be paid.

Obscure_Observer4h ago

Playstation is just another revenue stream out of many. They´re important of course, but I think PC, Mobile, and Cloud are even more important.

i´m also curious to see how COD will perform on Nintendo Switch 2 after all those years that ABK has been snubbing them. Thanks to Xbox they´ll finally be able to play those games again.

Eonjay4h ago

Right Switch 2 (one assumes that COD really isn't going to run on Switch) when it launches will take a few years to build up a sizable audience. One imagines that that can help offset some of the sales lost on Xbox. But as you probably already know, PlayStation has been the biggest platform for COD sales by quite a margin for quite a while. Its not 'just another revenue stream'... its THE revenue stream (as far as Call of Duty). I really wouldn't expect that to change anythime soon. Also, remember when it comes to COD we are counting PS4 and PS5.

As far as Switch goes, the only way in hell I'm gonna even try to play it there is on one of the Pro controllers. The idea of trying to use the joy cons or the handheld itself is already making my hand hurt.

FPS_D3TH6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

15 studios is A LOT. That’s honestly insane. I thought 3 or 4 was kind of crazy but I suppose it took 3 years for 4 or 5 of studios to make the last one and if they’re coming out yearly still then maybe it’s still just 5 studios per release. I’d imagine 15 studios managing one single game would be far too complicated with way too many cooks.

Could be a good opportunity maybe for EA and SIE to start a collaboration with Battlefield.

Although I still hold a little grudge towards them not just because of their treatment of Kojima, but also the demise of Pro Evolution Soccer, I am happy Silent Hill performed so well.

Looking forward to Snake Eater Delta, although I am still not so sure if I'll buy it.

Abriael14h ago

Silent Hill 2 is not included in these results. It was released after September 31.

dveio14h ago

I know.

But I still was happy it performed well..

;)

Cacabunga8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

So glad they are back in the game!
Regarding kojima story no one will ever know the true fact.
The guy cannot be that easy to handle for sure.

dveio8h ago

Personally, I seriously believe that Kojima's actually the type of person you'd consider to be too good-natured - often to his disadvantage.

Miraak82 8h ago

They need to bring back Castlevania , man how cool it would be to play in a full 3d castle on a scale of what SotN had , something with secrets, loops and items to find in every area .

OtterX7h ago

Yep! The Metroid Prime series showed that the Metroidvania style progression CAN work in 3D, it's just that Castlevania never hit the notes quite as right as Metroid Prime did. Souls games have integrated that Metroidvania-style progression also really nicely and shows what a Castlevania game could possibly look like in a well laid out, 3D world!

Miraak82 7h ago(Edited 7h ago)

I've always thought souls games are the closest we'll get to it but they don't have the integrated traversal with things like relics ( Double/long jumps, Transformations, Holy Symbol... ect ) that I really wanna see . Basically souls you'd just just find a switch, key, ladder or drop to a lower platform for 90% of the exploration but it's nothing like metroidvanias where you get to see your character progress as the tool to open the game further. I'm still hoping though ... even after 25+ years

OtterX6h ago

@Miraak82 Very true. Progression has never been item or ability based in Souls games, but it at least gives a good model of how it could be implemented. I sure hope they give Castlevania another 3D shot!

Pepsi_Man30007h ago

I'm still hoping we'll see a new 3D castlevania. If metal gear and silent hill came back then hopefully a new castlevania, whether it be a remake or new game, is on the way

CrimsonWing695h ago

Welcome back, baby. Don't f*ck it up, now.

Levii_925h ago

Are people in the comments here serious?

It’s Konami dude. 😂😂

Miraak82 4h ago

There's always room for redemption, look a SE and Capcom ... most of what they put out in the ps3 and a part of the ps4 era was utter dogpoop but in the past 5 years they've been hitting it out of the park with some quality shit . Konami are responsible for some of the best gaming experiences I've ever had so discrediting them would be a disservice to gaming . It's not like they were putting out shit games , they just bailed from the gaming space all together ... I can't say the same thing for for alot of other companies
