    Xbox Boss Asha Sharma Tells Employees the Brand Has "Started to Return to Growth"

    Xbox boss Asha Sharma told employees at a Microsoft town hall that the Xbox brand has "started to return to growth," with positive sentiment up 30% over the past year and no longer declining in "hours spent." She named Gears of War: E-Day, Minecraft Dungeons 2 and World of Warcraft: Forever as having strong starts, and outlined "four C's" — core, content, creation and connection — to guide Xbox's future. She also said Xbox Game Pass will become more "flexible" and that the next-gen Project Helix console will be part of a "family of devices."

    Xbox CEO Asha Sharma Reportedly Told Staff the Previous Game Pass Strategy Sent Xbox Into 'Freefall'

    According to an internal memo obtained by Windows Central, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma reportedly told staff that Microsoft's Game Pass strategy sent Xbox's finances into freefall. The report ties this to the $69 billion Activision Blizzard acquisition and adding Call of Duty to Game Pass, which raised subscription costs while cutting into Call of Duty sales. Sharma said in the memo that the business has started to return to growth from an all-time low, at more than 2 to 3 times what it was, and expects that to continue.

Multiplayer, MyCareer, and MyTeam will then be unavailable and Virtual Currency can no longer be earned, while Play Now, MyNBA, The W, and MyWNBA remain playable.

    Gears of War: E-Day entered Premium Advanced Access last week, giving the author hands-on time with the final builds of Versus and Horde Siege. Versus launches with four modes, including Conquest, where teams claim zones to reach four points, and Demolition, built around planting and defusing a bomb. The 12-player Horde Siege adds a mod system for weapon-altering attachments, and the author says playing as Marksman with the Longshot has fully converted them to the mode.

    RuneScape dev Jagex apologises after RuneFest debut of an AI-generated six-fingered character

    Jagex has taken down its Dragon Slayer 2 trailer after its RuneFest debut showed a player character with six fingers, which social media users identified as generative AI. Alec 'Mod Sween' Sween said the trailer was made by a trusted external partner that had explicitly confirmed GenAI would not be used, and apologised while saying Jagex is overhauling its review process. It is the second generative AI controversy for Jagex in quick succession, following its clothing collaboration with 100 Thieves days earlier.

    Epic Games has quietly replaced a piece of in-game artwork in Fortnite after fans spotted a Google Gemini AI watermark in its original version.

    NBA 2K25 Is Being Delisted After Two Years, and MyCareer Will Become Unplayable

    NBA 2K25 is being delisted two years after launch, with 2K stopping sales on October 30, 2026, and shutting down online servers on January 1, 2027. Multiplayer modes and the single-player MyCareer story mode will then become unplayable, since progression and virtual currency depend on a server connection. Players who buy the game before October 30 can still download it and play offline modes.

    NBA 2K25 will be delisted on October 30 and fully discontinued on December 31

    2K Sports announced that NBA 2K25 will be removed from sale on October 30, 2026, and fully discontinued on December 31, 2026. Starting January 1, 2026, all multiplayer and online modes will be removed, making the single-player MyCareer and MyTeam modes unplayable and cutting off virtual currency purchases. Owners can redownload and play offline after the shutdown, while Play Now, MyNBA, The W, and MyWNBA modes will remain available.

    NBA 2K25 to be delisted on 30th October and have its servers shut down on 31st December

    2K announced on the NBA 2K25 Steam page that the game will be removed from online storefronts on 30th October 2026, with all online content shutting down on 31st December and online modes gone for good from January 2027. Owners of the 2024 edition can still redownload it after the October cutoff. Because MyCareer and MyTeam are tied to virtual currency progression, they will no longer be playable after the shutdown, and the Switch version will be left with only the Play Now option and no online multiplayer.

    NBA 2K25 is delisted this month and its servers, including single-player story mode, shut down at the end of the year

    2K Sports and Take-Two announced that NBA 2K25 will be delisted from all digital stores on October 30 and its online servers will shut down entirely on December 31. From January 1, 2027, players can no longer play multiplayer or access any online modes, and can no longer earn Virtual Currency (VC), which means MyTeam and MyCareer stop working. MyCareer is a single-player story mode but its progression is tied to VC, so it shuts down with the servers; only modes like Play Now, MyNBA and The W remain, without features that require a 2K server connection.

    There Are 2,800 Fortnite Skins, But Only The FNAF Skins Have This Special Feature

    The Five Nights at Freddy's skins in Fortnite--Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy--have a new reactive effect: taking damage makes pieces fall off the character model permanently until you die or the match ends, even if you heal. The effect can be turned off in the locker or set to always show the beat-up look. Previous damage-reactive skins like Isaac Clarke, Synth, and Spider-Punk only had temporary effects, and the Botch backbling's wounds heal when you heal.

    Gears of War: E-Day opened to early access players yesterday for those who bought the Premium Edition, Premium Upgrade Edition, or Collector's Edition, and some players noted missing legacy features such as chainsaw duels, meat shields, select past weapons, private lobbies, and leaderboards.

The first season runs eight weeks from the early access release to 1st December, ranked PvP arrives on 13th October, and the game's general release is 6th October.
