After joking about buying Amazon MMO New World, Rust boss says to “keep hope” as he signs NDA with an “unnamed company”

Alistair McFarlane, head of Facepunch Studios, has expressed interest in reviving the canceled Amazon MMO, New World, and has made a light-hearted offer for its rights. He is entering a non-disclosure agreement with an unnamed company, urging fans to keep "low expectations." McFarlane engaged with the New World community by jokingly tagging Amazon Games and discussing the planned shutdown of the New World: Aeternum servers in January 2027. He believes in empowering the community through public server hosting if a deal occurs. McFarlane has acknowledged the game's rough start and lack of long-term support but sees potential for its revival. Facepunch Studios prioritizes community engagement, as demonstrated by the ongoing success of their game Rust. The identity of the unnamed company remains undisclosed, but speculation points to Amazon Games. McFarlane emphasizes that discussions are confidential and that there are no confirmed deals or announcements at this time.

If you’re enjoying the TV show, this Fallout game has just got a new update that makes your power armor dreams reality

Fallout 76 has undergone significant improvements since its initial launch, which was marked by gameplay issues and bugs. Over the past seven years, Bethesda has worked to enhance the game, introducing human NPCs, streamlining the onboarding process, and making quests more engaging. Recent updates have focused on precise adjustments rather than complete overhauls, including changes to armor mechanics. Key updates include a reduction in armor weight, rebalancing of the T-51 power armor for better Cryo resistance, and enhanced radiation protection for Hazmat Suits. Over 50 armor mods have been tweaked, and perks related to power armor have been updated. Bethesda has also removed the 'recommended level' text from public event descriptions, which may challenge new or returning players. Additional minor adjustments have been made to events and user interface elements, and the Gauss Minigun has seen changes in overheating duration and damage reduction. Fallout 76 is positioned as an appealing option for fans of the Fallout TV show, offering modern graphics and refined controls.

They survived the MMO massacre of 2025, but 2026 is going to be a tense year for WoW and FF14: And for completely different reasons

In 2025, the MMORPG landscape faced significant turmoil with the closure of New World, withdrawal of funding for Greg Street's MMO, cancellation of a ZeniMax title, and the demise of a Warhammer MMO. Despite this, World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy 14 have remained resilient. Final Fantasy 14 has struggled with design and content delivery, lagging behind competitors like World of Warcraft, which has benefited from Microsoft's acquisition. Creative Studio 3's rigid division between casual and hardcore content has hindered player engagement, while World of Warcraft has successfully implemented variable difficulty. Director Naoki Yoshida is addressing job design issues in an upcoming expansion expected in late 2026 or early 2027. World of Warcraft has seen a resurgence with recent expansions but faces challenges in eliminating combat mods that players rely on. Both games are at a critical juncture, with 2026 expected to be pivotal for their futures.

Sorry Witcher 4, but Warframe’s dark fantasy sister is my most-wanted RPG, and it just took one step closer to launch

Soulframe is developing a Founders program that offers players four distinct options across two tiers, with each Wyld pack providing access to specific Pact or class trees, unique weapons, a talisman, a customized spirit guide, Moonsteel Threads for transmogging, Figments for dyeing armor, and Arcs as premium currency. The pricing for the Wyld packs is .99 each, while the Wyld Paragon pack is priced at .99 and includes additional features like a unique greatsword and the ability to plant a flower in Eternium Gardens. The recent launch of Preludes 12 introduces a greatsword for fighter-oriented Envoys, enhancements to sub-bosses, and fast travel, along with new cast members.
