One of the best Xbox Play Anywhere games just got its notorious save bug fixed for Xbox Ally and Xbox PC

The save file bug in Death Stranding on Xbox PC has been resolved through a collaboration between Microsoft, 505 Games, and Kojima Productions. Initially, players faced issues where save files would fail to copy after a short gameplay period, leading to lost progress and contributing to a low review score of 2/5 on the Xbox PC store. The fix is being rolled out as part of the Xbox Gaming Services background app, and players can check for the update by verifying the version number in the Xbox PC app. The updated version is 32.106.13001.0 or higher. After testing the update, players have reported consistent progress saving. Death Stranding Director's Cut is available for purchase on the Xbox Store for .99 and supports the Xbox Play Anywhere initiative.

That sick-looking first person sci-fi game at The Game Awards is actually the sequel to Sons of the Forest

Forest 3 is a sequel to a highly acclaimed game, revealed at the Game Awards. The trailer features a first-person perspective from a starship cockpit, showcasing a departure from Earth and a journey involving survival elements like hunting and gathering, without the task of tree punching. The game has a sci-fi aesthetic with swampy landscapes and includes a disturbing image of a zombified creature. While it shares themes with previous games in the series, it promises a new narrative direction. Endnight Games has not announced a release window or a Steam page for Forest 3 yet.

Team Cherry may not attend The Game Awards even though Silksong is nominated for GOTY, but they’re pretty sure a different ‘exceptional and broadly palatable’ game will win

Hollow Knight: Silksong is highly anticipated but Team Cherry expresses uncertainty about winning the Game of the Year (GOTY) title at The Game Awards. Developer Ari Gibson noted that the game appeals to some players while frustrating others. Silksong competes with titles like Death Stranding 2 and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. The game received a score of 90 from PC Gamer, but its challenging gameplay has led to mixed reactions. Unlike Expedition 33, which offers a more accessible experience, Silksong requires a higher skill level without an easy mode.
