We dropped our predictions, hopes and dreams earlier today. No spoilers as such, just educated guesswork and supposition!
Call of Duty: Warzone 2 launches later this year
#Team2023 left in the dust Coming to Steam too https://www.dexerto.com/call-of-duty/warzone-2-confirmed-for-2022-release-with-modern-warfare-2-reveal-1843201/

With Warzone 2 launching in 2022, all that's left is for Treyarch's game to be released and the series is fully in the hands of Xbox. Wondering if their game got pulled back into 2023.
didn't jez already say the same earlier this year?, could actually happen??
So MW2 with the Sony marketing deal. That should be the last one as far as we know, right?
Would be absolutely awesome to see Treyarchs game back were it belongs. Should also be the first next gen only CoD so perfect timing.

Warzone 2 and 2024's Treyarch game also having marketing with Sony according to Bloomberg.
Pretty much but good to have another source saying the same I guess
I still think Microsoft themselves will make all their next gen games $70 sooner or later. They're just waiting for it to become the norm. However, $70 games just bolsters Game Pass' value even more.

FO76 seems like it was a desperate attempt to create a big money maker for the company by going so far out of their wheelhouse to chase that GAAS money. Bethesda is much better off only having to worry about putting out good games now. Wouldn't surprise me if Starfield wouldn't have been delayed if the acquisition never happened either.
Not seeing much new info here, seems like a rehash of what was known just to tie it to the Redfall and Starfield delays. Unfortunately, crunch and overtime for QA testers are regular issues for live service game, so nothing unusual here. The article mentions how distant Todd Howard was with Fallout 76 and that he didn't direct it, too busy and distracted by Starfield after Fallout 4, but it was known: he admitted himself that as an executive producer, he checked on the game once a week while directing a game is a daily job. The interesting part is that some employees of the satellite studios felt bitter about the preferential treatment the main single-player studio in Maryland was getting, but that's not surprising, either: the team that makes the most money will always be favored.
MW2 is going to be insane. And Warzone 2 launching this year is a huge surprise. COD machine into full effect I guess.
I agree. Bethesda needed another GaaS to keep that money train flowing for their premiere single player projects. Now, hopefully, they don't have to worry about all that and can just focus on making incredible single player games like they are so good at doing.
Dude, I foresee everybody claiming after the show that Xbox put on their greatest ever show.
Only for you to jump in and say it's the worst show you've seen. 😂
You're consistent, I can't fault you there!
*High Five*. Also one if my most awaited games this year.
But it doesn't matter if it will be shown at the Jeffs or at the Xbox showcase. I just want to see more of it :)
nice!
The next next-gen console :)

Side note: Benji mentioned on his stream that he heard about the Kojima game with Xbox before Grubb even mentioned it. He said he has proof too. I think this is the only other person to confirm it, right? Jez and Nick etc all have said they have no info on it if I remember correctly.
He also said that the leak lines up with what he's heard and he anticipates announcement soon.

With Redfall's delay it got even more important to my friend group. It's like the one great looking co-op game coming this year.
Evil Dead my man!
But yeah, Darktide can't come soon enough. Even more excited for it than for Redfall.
Now that is very interesting. Thanks for the breakdown! Wolfenstein this year would make me lose it. Love the series big time.
i really hope microsoft massively changes activision/blizzard. and i don't "just" mean workplace culture, some of their games come off as really mean spirited to me.
games that prey on people's gaming/spending addictions (wow, candy crush, diablo immortal), have them neglect more important things in their life or waste their money.
or the outright us military propaganda in call of duty, where warcrimes are justified.
that's why i never was the biggest fan of the acquisition.

Quoting this so I remember to add it to the spreadsheet:
Xbox Studios owned IP
Welcome! 🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮 This spreadsheet contains a list of every IP owned by Xbox. Feel free to leave a comment if there's corrections to be made or sources to add! Check our Resetera Xbox OTs for more information on studios and great discussions about Xbox and gaming in general. 🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮🎮...
Xbox Studios owned IP - Google Drive
If anyone has any other IPs that are missing, feel free to leave a comment on the spreadsheet :) (I know this will be buried because of showcase hype, I'll bring it back next week haha)

What you're asking for here would completely neuter the reason MS is acquiring them.
Not trying to downplay anything. There's just very little new information there. The troubled development of FO76 was well known for people who actually followed it. It doesn't help that the article is full of old quotes from 2019.
Wow! Not really that surprised with this take considering how much of a fanboy you are with Bethesda, but there _is_ a lot of new things, one of them is that BGS is a mess of a studio. The preferential treatment take in special is bizarrely out of touch with it's being said: senior developers with multiplayer experience were ignored (one of the main reasons that fallout 76 was such a mess) by the senior developers of the single player focused maryland studio. That's not "preferential treatment", that's just awful management.
Also weird that you say nothing unusual to people being treated like trash and having insane hours. Even if it's common in the industry, it should not be, you know?
Holy smokes, this OT is moving lightening fast….missed these, many, many, pages back….
Haha, I suppose I'm an "old". 😆 Though I do play up my age a little bit. I've been retired for quite a number of years, so I think that put's a certain image of me in peoples mind. I'm still younger than Uncle Phil. 😃 And huge congrats on the impending parenthood!
Oh, boy the nostalgia is STRONG with that one.…though….did the Atari 2600 have a Sears knockoff? I definitely played the Atari version of that in the late 70's (though I had a PONG console even before that), and into the 80's, and Intellivision right after. I remember the epic video game crash of the early 80's too, when they buried millions of cartridges out in the desert southwest….and then how everything was resurrected with the NES in mid-80's.
Basically my video game life….
How it started…
How it's going….
lol and imagine the next decade!
