    A Crimson Desert exec thinks critic review scores were lower because they didn't have enough time to play it, and boy oh boy I wonder whose fault that is

    Pearl Abyss European CEO Lybee Park says the gap between critic and user scores for Crimson Desert comes down to reviewers having limited time and a build that wasn't the exact launch version, so they mostly followed the main quest line instead of exploring the world's hidden details. The article's author pushes back, arguing the developer may be to blame for tight review timelines, and that a critic's job is to identify a game's friction points rather than play it like an average person.

    Skate studio Full Circle responds to ReSkate offline mod: not against creativity, but against bypassing paid cosmetics

    Full Circle issued a statement on the ReSkate mod, saying it does not oppose player creativity but draws the line at mods that bypass its systems to unlock paid cosmetics, release gated content, or profit from unauthorized assets. ReSkate drew over 350 thousand downloads in its first week and runs through Steam's Proton emulation, with its most popular feature being the ability to play the free-to-play game offline. Full Circle says it will add official secure access tools for broader community creation, while ReSkate's developers say they did not intend to undercut the studio and would not fight back if EA's legal team came knocking.

    Circana says the US console hardware market is in its most precarious position since the early 80s

    Market research firm Circana says the US console hardware market is in its most precarious position "since the early 80s." Year-to-date figures through August show Xbox hardware unit sales down 33% year on year and PlayStation down 25%, an all-time low for Xbox and PlayStation's lowest since 2013. Circana attributes the US price increases mainly to component shortages caused by AI data centers, with the average Xbox console selling for $529 in 2026 through August, 26% higher than a year ago, and PlayStation at $597, 20% higher.

    Arc Raiders could eventually split into PvE and PvP, executive producer says

    Arc Raiders executive producer Aleksander Grøndal said splitting the game into PvE and PvP modes is "possible", since the community is already divided along those lines. Embark will run a limited PvE test from 13th to 20th October that toggles opt-in PvE matchmaking where players cannot damage each other, with solos, duos and trios matched into the same sessions and Night Raids and the upcoming Frigate excluded. An Embark blog post said the game was originally conceived seven years ago as a raid-based PvE co-op game with looting, and player data shows 37 percent friendly co-op players, 34 percent pure PvP players and 27 percent who move between both, while 51 percent of surveyed players expressed interest in a dedicated PvE option.

    Developer Claims Scammer Used AI to Clone His Game and Demanded $200 to Not Publish It on Steam, Fellow Devs Scoff

Commenters noted Steam charges a $100 listing fee and that the AI video showed broken physics and enemies spawning off-map, so it wasn't a playable game. Users then found he never shared his email publicly and that he had threatened other developers with an AI clone three weeks earlier, suggesting a staged stunt.

    Delta Force announced on October 8 that its China server DAU passed 58 million, up from the 50 million reported in March.

It credits frequent updates, cross-platform play and esports for the game's long-term run while noting a mismatch between overseas preference for PVE and domestic preference for PVP.
