Anthem's Executive Producer Mark Darrah keeps providing new details on the game, talking about gear progression, weapons, and more
The studio was founded in March of 2024 by Stig Asmussen, director of the Star Wars: Jedi games.
Hideo Kojima and PlayStation go together like hobbits and breakfasts. That is to say, they're meant to be together, but they're also happy to serve up a PC port or afternoon tea if the time is right. Kojima's long-time collaboration with Sony means it always feels odd to see his name next to an Xbox logo, like Master Chief appearing on your PS5 or glimpsing your teacher in the big Tesco doing her weekly shop.
yawn. ^ All of this opinion piece sounds like someone’s recount when they get out of the norm and go on a hiking vacation and boast about their “life changing moments” over things extremely common and accessible to everyone. Get a rocket ship and take some selfies already. jezzus .
Lighthouse Games, the AAA Leamington Spa-based studio formed in 2022 by Playground Games co-founder and former studio head Gavin Raeburn, has revealed it's developing a "disruptive" driving game and secured additional investment from Tencent to make it happen.
I feel sorry for this guy and his newly formed studio.
He left XGS and Playground to pursue his multi platform dreams just to find out next that Xbox will be making games for every single platform. Smh.
I don't think it's any of that. Im sure hes heard of Xbox multiplat approach but wanted to do their own thing anyway. He has complete freedom and direction. This game could be a break out hit and join Larian Studios Baldurs Gate and Clair Obscure Expedition 33 a more independent studios.
"I would say we're not building Horizon. If I wanted to build Horizon 6, 7 and 8, I would have stayed at Playground"
He didn't want to keep making Horizon. Try reading any article before giving a nod to Microsoft.
I'm glad studios are breaking off from big pubs and doing their own thing.
Making games that are player lead and games that devs want to make and play themselves. This is how it was in the 90's 2000's even early 2010's. That's part of the reason why gaming was better back then. With more independency in the industry we'll have more creative games. Not this formulaic dopamine reward driven systems. But engaging, dynamic and most importantly organically fun to play. Not manufactured fake fun like how it is these days.
Rant over it'll be probably be awhile till we see their game but here's hoping it's good.
I'm hoping Anthem can bring back the magic Bioware had with Mass Effect and Dragon Age Origins
I know its just part of the PR to try to dive up hype for the game, but I really wish they would just shut up already. Bioware games have been garbage for a while now and a huge number of the people who used to be their fans are done. Who can look at this crap and not roll their eyes? I just hope this failure offers as many memes and laughs as Andromeda did. EA did to Bioware what they have done to many others. Same story different day.
