Battlefield: Bad Company 2’s director had big plans for a third entry in the series, with your squad reuniting for an impossible mission amid a war between Russia and the US over Alaska

David Goldfarb, the director of Battlefield: Bad Company 2, has revealed that he has written initial pages of a script for a potential sequel, Bad Company 3. He shared a detail about a fictional store named "Adiosvidaniya," which reflects current geopolitical issues, particularly regarding Russia. Goldfarb confirmed that the story would continue from the cliffhanger in Bad Company 2, stating, “Russia won and partially took over Alaska.” He also acknowledged a fan theory about reuniting original characters for a mission, responding affirmatively. However, he clarified that his work on the script is a personal project and not a formal plan from DICE, stating that the studio never considered developing Bad Company 3. Goldfarb now leads his own studio, The Outsiders.

4A Games’ Ukrainian arm rebrands as Reburn

The Ukrainian branch of Metro developer 4A Games has rebranded as Reburn and is developing a new sci-fi narrative-driven shooter titled La Quimera, which will be self-published. Founded in Kyiv in 2006, 4A Games gained recognition for the Metro series and relocated to Malta in 2014 due to geopolitical issues. CEO Dmytro Lymar explained that the rebranding allows the studio to create a new brand for the new intellectual property while retaining the trademark for the Metro series. The name Reburn signifies renewal and rebirth. 4A Games clarified that the overall company has not undergone a rebranding and that the original team continues to work on the next Metro game.

Huawei will replace Windows with homegrown HarmonyOS in upcoming PCs

Huawei plans to transition from Windows to HarmonyOS as its primary operating system for PCs, with the next generation of computers set to feature HarmonyOS Next by the end of 2024. The current lineup of PCs will be the last to use Microsoft's operating system. HarmonyOS Next will be a microkernel-based system, no longer incorporating AOSP code or Android compatibility, and will support its own native applications. Huawei accounts for approximately 10 percent of the 40 million PCs sold annually in China, competing primarily with Lenovo and HP. Despite significant investment, HarmonyOS Next faces challenges in user adoption and app availability, with limited gaming applications and developer support. Chinese state media claims over 10,000 apps and services are available on HarmonyOS, with clients like the Shanghai municipal government developing native applications.

The restrictions will be enforced by the Commerce Department and will impact the company's reputation and international sales. The decision is part of a broader US strategy to mitigate cybersecurity risks from foreign adversaries, particularly Russia and China.
