Blue Dragon has been stuck on the Xbox 360 for 20 years, but no longer: a fantastic unofficial PC port unlocks the FPS, goes 4K, and even adds mod support

Hironobu Sakaguchi founded Mistwalker after leaving Square Enix in the early 2000s. Blue Dragon, a title from Mistwalker, is now available on PC due to a fan-made port created by programmer Tom, who used his toolset ReXGlue to recompile the game. This port integrates original game files into a single executable, enhances graphical fidelity, and resolves compatibility issues. Tom's work allows the game to run at 1080p resolution and 60 fps on systems with as little as one gigabyte of VRAM. The port was released on GitHub to coincide with the 19th anniversary of Blue Dragon's U.S. release, and future updates and mods are planned, including the introduction of characters from the Nintendo DS sequel.

Hundreds of PS3 games to be saved from digital store closure with new PC ports

PlayStation announced the closure of the PlayStation 3 digital store, raising concerns about the preservation of gaming history. The majority of the PlayStation 3 library is available on physical discs, but the loss of digital content is significant. PlayStation plans to phase out physical media production by 2028. A community of PlayStation 3 enthusiasts is working to keep titles accessible online. Efforts to decompile PlayStation 3 games are underway, with a new tool simplifying the emulation process. This tool navigates the complexities of the console's Cell Processor, potentially revolutionizing emulation. Many PlayStation 2 and 3 games are only available through cloud-streaming or require a PlayStation Plus Premium subscription, which has technical issues. Fans are taking on the responsibility of preserving these games, highlighting a need for PlayStation to enhance compatibility with modern platforms or consider porting games to PC.

Dying Light 2 is a platform now, as the Breach update opens up Techland’s zombie survival game ‘even more to UGC content’

Techland has been enhancing Dying Light 2 since its launch in 2022, reworking the parkour system, introducing Volatiles, and improving combat mechanics. The game now features New Game+ and replayable bounties. The latest update, "The Breach," aims to enhance modding and user-generated content (UGC) capabilities, allowing players to create and share their own content. After completing the Prologue, players meet characters Tolga and Fatin, who provide tools for UGC experiences. Official mods include a third-person mode and a low-gravity mode, with community-created content like "The Atomborne" and "Dead Circuit." Dying Light 2 has a daily concurrent player count in the low thousands, which is respectable for a four-year-old single-player game but lower than other successful titles. The potential for a vibrant UGC community exists, especially as it may appeal to younger players compared to other platforms facing scrutiny.
