Yeah they're actually paying $2.4B upfront and the rest as retention bonus over 2+ years, which is smart considering most top devs just take the money and run away to form their own studio.

Another SoP

wait what?

Personally I love that the conversation has shifted from "XYZ company didn't pay billions just so they can release games on competing platforms" to "XYZ company didn't pay billions just so they can pull games from competing platforms and lose revenue". Its so fking predictable with some people

Why do you guys get so triggered by UK charts? The British left 75 years ago, they're not coming back again Digital is counting indies and games that don't get disk copies. Apples to apples the split is about 62/38 and been this way for last 3 years except for the pandemic bump in 2020.

Destiny pulls a million players every day during lull periods and 2M+ during new season and DLC, shits on new BF and Infinite on PC from high orbit. No non-F2P game consistently has 200k players playing at any given point. It even manages to jump over Infinite on XBL from time to time. Imagine a Sony game having more player on XBL than fking Halo

This is going to bomb so hard Xbox exclusive that is not on PC and only half of it on GP. Good luck with that

I love all the bot circlejerk in this thread now that Ank is banned

Supposedly bigger than Control which was their previous biggest budget title.

Remedy has their biggest game coming out in 10 days and nobody seems to give a sh*t. They'd benefit from a backing of a company that knows how to hype up games.

Every time Bungie changes companies, people are like "this is going to change things for better", and Bungie tells them to hold the beer.

So Sony now has 3 games coming out in next 30 days HFW Witch Queen GT7

1000+ guys actually, they grew after Acti split. They're also in desperate need of support studios after the split so this works in their favor.

Yeah you can retroactively claim all the games studio made before acquisition because that's a thing now.

I remember Ank saying this about Starfield

People are really out of touch with Destiny and how big that IP is, aren't they?

$3.6B "Destiny studio will remain multiplatform, able "to self-publish and reach players wherever they choose to play"

Infinite player base tanking is not a big revelation or something. At one point there was race between it and BF2042 to the bottom on Steam. BF just won by a small margin
