The last few years have been quiet on the legal issues in games, but in true 2025 fashion, this year was a legal drama-llama. Granted, maybe a little bit more on the “Ally McBeal” side of legal drama than the “Matlock.” But hey, I’m here for it. From corporate-facepalm shenanigans to Roblox spending another year […]

PUBG: Blindspot, the PUBG spin-off previously dubbed Project Arc, is set to take the early access plunge on February 5th, 2026. In case you've understadably started wondering if this is the extraction shooter which prompted my last bit of newsing about a PUBG spin-off, it isn't.

Most anticipated? Oh reader, you gentle, innocent child. Hark at you, ambling in here with supple joints, eyes clear as springwater, and the scent of hope in your hair. I have grown old, dear reader. I no longer feel this emotion called "anticipation", anymore than I remember the taste of strawberries in the Shire. Years of waiting for another Legacy of Kain game have broken my spirit. My heart is a sponge of sorrow. My beard coils round my ankles like a listless cat. All has become grey.

As if the mania around extraction shooters wasn't already big enough, Krafton has just waded in as well.

Is this what life is now? Witnessing massive, incredibly successful companies turning to AI to get advice on legal proceedings? You don't need to pinch me, I've already done it, and this world is real.
