Report: Take-Two was in talks to revive Perfect Dark

Take-Two Interactive is in negotiations with Embracer Group and Microsoft regarding the acquisition of the Perfect Dark intellectual property and its funding and publishing responsibilities. Embracer Group, which owns Crystal Dynamics, acted as an intermediary in these discussions. The negotiations stalled due to disagreements over long-term ownership of the Perfect Dark IP. The Perfect Dark reboot was first announced by Microsoft in 2020, with The Initiative leading development, and Crystal Dynamics joining the project in September 2021. The reboot was cancelled in July as part of a restructuring at Microsoft, which included over 9,000 layoffs.

With Throne and Liberty, can Amazon finally make Amazon Games happen?

Throne and Liberty is a free-to-play MMORPG developed by NCSoft and published by Amazon Games, available on Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. The game features impressive graphics that stand out on higher settings, providing a vibrant and immersive fantasy world. The character creator offers extensive customization options, including preset faces and hairstyles, although the current lack of equipment variety in endgame content may limit character curation. The game's narrative follows a conventional "chosen one" arc with an underdeveloped storyline and lacks memorable characters. Throne and Liberty may appeal to players seeking a grind-heavy, guild-based PvP experience, but those looking for richer storytelling might consider alternatives. Amazon Games has a troubled history in game publishing, with previous titles like New World and Lost Ark experiencing varying levels of success. Throne and Liberty launched on October 1, 2024, achieving a peak of over 333,000 players. The game has modest hardware requirements, running on lower settings with an Intel Core i5-7700 and Nvidia GeForce GTX960, while optimal performance is suggested with an Intel Core i5-11600K and Nvidia GeForce GTX1660. Console players require only 40GB of available storage.
