Nada, que tenemos que seguir con el verano caluroso lleno de noticias lamentables y movimientos inexplicables por parte de la industria. Si ya el año pasado grabamos un programa dramático como fue el sonado cierre de Tango Gameworks y Arkane Austin, ahora vivimos otro nubarrón por parte de Xbox. Está claro que Microsoft está dejando el terreno libre para su futuro en el mercado de los videojuegos: Inteligencia Artificial, Call of Duty y Game Pass; dejando de lado la mano de obra humana; la creatividad y dos décadas de historia viva en la industria del videojuego por el egoísmo de gente vestida con traje. Echaremos de menos hablar tan a menudo de Everwild y de Perfect Dark, pero los tiempos cambian. Más allá de que se nos ha olvidado comentar sobre el videojuego de John Romero -Óscar está muy enfadado- entre otras cosas que siguen en el aire como la situación en algunos estudios en Blizzard, dejamos de lado para hablar del último gran exclusivo, al menos de forma temporal como ya sabemos, de PS5 como es Death Stranding 2: On the beach. Kojima en estado puro, para lo bueno y para lo malo. Por último, comentamos un poco un evento que ha ocurrido y uno que está a nada de ocurrir... o no. El State of Play de Ghost of Yotei deja claro que Sucker Punch quiere darlo todo en la secuela de su IP más exitosa. Por otro lado, seguimos como buenas pirañas de tierra esperando un Nintendo Direct que no parece estar tan cerca ¿O sí? La semana que viene habrá programa ya que hablaremos sobre Donkey Kong Bananza y lo que surja en la industria del videojuego. Este programa será muy especial ya que será el último de la temporada y por el momento el último que se grabará con los actuales compañeros.

The warning was given by many last week, we discussed it, and on Wednesday, it happened. Microsoft 9,100 employees were laid off across all departments, with a sizeable chunk coming from the Xbox division. Sean and Marc discuss the fallout of it all, which includes the cancellation of Rare's Everwild, the closure of The Initiative studio, and the subsequent cancellation of its game, the Perfect Dark Reboot. There's even more, including the incredible downsizing of the Forza Motorsport studio, Turn-10 as well. Is Game Pass to blame? Is it the push towards AI? Is it mismanagement from executives? Has the Activision-Blizzard-King merger's spending come back to generate some revenue? We examine it all and try to make any sense of this, and will this ever reach a stopping point for Xbox? On another front, Sony's prize live service game, Helldivers 2, is headed to Xbox on August 26. Is this a sign of Sony following in Xbox's footsteps? Or is this a one-off case where a multiplayer game needs more players to keep thriving? Plus, Marc has more to say on Death Stranding 2, Sean has finally made progress on Clair Obscur Expedition 33, and has made it to Act 3 too.

This week, delve into Microsoft's sweeping gaming division overhaul, including significant layoffs and the cancellation of anticipated titles like Perfect Dark and Everwild. Discover the groundbreaking move of Helldivers 2 launching on Xbox, marking Sony's first major title crossover with full crossplay. We also examine the sharp decline in video game spending among young Americans, Riot Games' controversial decision to allow gambling sponsors in esports, and the UK's National Videogame Museum's presence at World Expo 2025. Plus, hear about the "Stop Killing Games" initiative reaching 1 million signatures and Don't Nod's recent layoffs. Our "Pick of the Week" segment features Luthier, Civolution, and an Elden Ring Night Reign update, alongside Clair Obscur Expedition 33 and Rematch. Finally, we tackle listener feedback on playing Game Pass games without a PC or Xbox Series X, and ponder Sony's similar offerings. #gameburst

Microsoft giveth. And Microsoft taketh away. And more seems to be going by the day.   The internet awoke to a bombshell this week with Microsoft canceling the highly anticipated Perfect Dark reboot and Rare's ethereal Everwild, and shut down The Initiative studio in a sweeping round of layoffs affecting over 9,000 employees. Turn 10 Studios have also been cut in half and a rumored to be a support studio going forward.  Fans are reeling from the loss of these ambitious titles, with Perfect Dark's sleek 2024 gameplay trailer now a bittersweet memory, and Everwild's lush fantasy world left unexplored.   The A.I. beast must be feed, and Xbox looks to be sacrificial lamb here.    In the business world of line must go up, how long can Xbox survive? Especially with Satya's shortsightedness and tunnel vision on Azure. It seems that these are dark days for Xbox.     But it's not all doom and gloom—Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 charges in with its Siege update, borrowing a horde-mode vibe from Gears of War to keep Space Marines slashing through Tyranid swarms. Meanwhile, The Blood of Dawnwalker, a vampire-fueled open-world RPG, stunned some with a massive gameplay reveal, yet left out hosts on the other side of "meh".   The Xbox App is leveling up too, adding Steam and Battle.net support for a seamless cross-platform experience—PC gamers, it's time to unite your libraries! Xbox is here to save the day, as long as it's allowed to. And this leads Kyle to go on a rant about Steam...    -- For previous episodes, our socials, community events, and more, visit ⭐THE XBOXCAST OFFICIAL WEBSITE ⭐
