If you want to remain relevant you need a mobile powerhouse. MS got Minecraft, maybe King soon, T2 got Zynga, EA got Glu, Tencent got most of the other big ones.

Sony is likely looking for one too or they will be left behind.

Sony already owns the #2 highest grossing mobile game ever in Fate/Grand Order.
That game is close to Genshin Impact levels of monthly revenue.

Well angry birds still makes money so it’s not a dead horse. They just need another hit.

Angry Sonic, Angry Tails, Angry Amy, Angry Knuckles, Angry Chaos....

Lifexline784d ago

Lol yeah you would be surprised at what could sell. I could see it.

porkChop783d ago

Angry Taxi might actually work.

blackblades784d ago (Edited 784d ago )

Looks like something MS would grab. I wont be surprised some how ms gets Sega with this included magically.

We could fund more games like Sonic Mania

We could buy the music rights back to Sonic 3

We could reboot some old franchises like Ristar, Shinobi, Gunstar Heroes or Golden Axe

...Nah. Angry Birds it is

Wait, have they even made anything since then? Thought they were a one-hit wonder lol.

darthv72784d ago

I didn't know they did a bunch of stuff prior to Angry Birds:

Pretty much everything since has been a spin off. Now maybe Sega will make Angry Chaos or something similar.

Mojang only made one game and Microsoft still purchased them for $4 billion

Sometimes one property is all you need especially when it’s lucrative

Angry Birds fell out of relevance years ago, but whatever they want to do lol.

I´d played both State of Decay games and I can safely say that this teaser image has nothing to do with it.

New Next Gen IP? O.o

pwnmaster30001d 16h ago (Edited 1d 16h ago )

Why are they teasing a new game when state of decay isn’t even close to being released?? Let’s not pull a Bethesda and insomniac

Please focus on state of decay 3.. I’ve been waiting patiently lol

One of the comments is quite interesting:

Asked deepseek again with New images **"State of Decay 3: TEMPEST"**
(or "WINDS" / "STORM")
featuring:
**A survival system with up to 8 survivors** in a dynamic environment (floods, winds, resource scarcity).
### Key Elements Explained:
1. **"TEMPEST" / "STORM"**
→ From the repeated character **风 (fēng) - "wind"**, implying extreme weather as a core mechanic.
2. **Up to 8 survivors**
→ From **八 (bā) - "eight"** + **人多 (rén duō) - "many people"**, suggesting squad size limits.
3. **Dynamic Environment**
→ References to **水 (shuǐ) - "water"** (floods) and **风 (fēng)** (storms) signal environmental threats.
4. **Resource Struggle**
→ **米 (mǐ) - "rice"** and **木 (mù) - "wood"** hint at survival mechanics (food, building).
