Approaching the starting line
Rockstar has announced that the digital edition of its remake of the GTA trilogy will be released on November 11th.
Collectors, on the other hand, who insist on getting their hands on a physical edition will have to wait almost another month, until December 7, to get the coveted disc version.
As you may recall, the awkwardly titled Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition will contain remasters of three classic games: GTA III and its two satellite games, Vice City and San Andreas.
The chassis will be launched for all existing consoles and PC, and Rockstar promises improved graphics that will be reflected in higher resolution and upgrades related to vehicle and character models, silhouettes, weather, lighting and reflections.
You can also expect improvements in control ("inspired by GTA V", according to the company), along with other refinements in the field of navigation in weapons wheels and radio stations, and the possibility of starting a mission again immediately after failing it.
And at a good time there is also a new trailer with gameplay.
The conference is over
It was expected, but still - wow.
Activision-Blizzard has canceled, for the third year in a row, its famous BlizzCon conference, which until recently was considered one of the most prestigious and important gamers' meetings in the world.
For 16 years, thousands of gamers have frequented the Anaheim, California convention center, receiving first-hand information and revelations about Diablo, Vocraft, Starkraft and Overwatch.
There were also parties, mingling, performances and a lot of unit pride.
The Corona plague has indeed forced the company to cancel the physical 2020 and 2021 conferences (the event took place in February this year in digital format), and it was recently reported that the 2022 Lizzon, which was scheduled to take place this coming February, was completely canceled.
The reason for this, of course, is the great crisis that has befallen Activision-Blizzard in recent months.
The virtual 2022 conference was announced before the crisis, and now the company has announced that it prefers to channel the time and resources needed to organize such a conference to support its employees, develop new games and think about what, if any, the conference will look like in the future.
Without words
The "Quiet Place" film series gets another episode, but this time not as a Hollywood production but as a game that is expected to be released over the next year.
There are not too many details at the moment, not even pictures and certainly not a trailer, but the developer, the Canadian company iLLOGIKA (consisting of Ubisoft expatriates who worked on, among other things, Peer Cray and Rainbow 6 games), promises "plot-based horror adventure for a single player, which will express the tension, The emotion and drama of the films. "
Our assessment: Expect a lot of stealth.
Cover version
More than three years after being released for smartphones and PCs, Among Us is finally coming to consoles.
The surprising multiplayer hit that conquered the world will be launched for the PlayStation and Xbox on December 14th and will support the Crossplay option, meaning Sony console users will be able to play against Microsoft console users.
The game will also be offered in three physical collectors versions, two of which will be launched only in the spring of 2022 and will include a variety of branded choppers without which you can not do without such as a doll, hologram cards, sticker page, poster, spinner, wool hat, invested box, etc.
The most prestigious edition, the Ejected Edition (pictured) is expected to cost about NIS 500 and will even include a brass blanket, which can serve as a perfect cover version if you are asked why you bought a free mobile game for half a thousand (just cover your head if asked).
