Well it looks like The Escapist is finally going to die.
I outgrew ZP years ago but even I have to say good on Yahtz for leaving, he should have left ages ago.

For whatever reason, Netflix finally realises that Stranger Things is a marketing cash cow and approves the return of Stranger Things licensed content in other games, after 2 years of pulling all agreements to use that content 2 years ago.
Fortnite just recently brought back Hopper and Demogorgon skins along with new Eleven cosmetics, after many years of it being known that they refused to have Epic renew their contract to sell them again.
Dead by Daylight just updated and re-added the Hawkins Lab map and ability to buy the Stranger Things DLC and costumes, after 2 years of it being removed and all content either removed or text changed to no longer reference ST.
Iām hoping that this means theyāll add the Stranger Things 3: The Game back to all platforms, as Iāve heard itās a fun RPG retelling of S3 ā but, also 2 years ago, they removed it from all stores to make it exclusive to their mobile app.

This gets a āfuck yeah!ā reaction from me. The ZP videos were the most worthwhile Escapist content by a country mile, although Iāve been enjoying āCold Takeā these days too. But more than that, Iām all for employees rallying around one another and leaving the company when the company makes questionable decisions in pursuit of the Almighty Dollar. Recent editing changes in ZP, namely jarring ad breaks and a āYouTube is fucking us, come to Patreonā intro, clearly showed the brand was struggling and putting profit ahead of creativity.

I was always amazed Yahtzee didnāt quit when Sterling quit, since at that point it seemed like the Escapist was on its death throes, and Sterling would go on to become hugely succesful through Patreon. If she could do it, it seemed like Yahtzee could easily mimic her success, even if without the Zero Punctuation copyright. The Escapist would amazingly bounce back but it looks like it is about to die again.

Nice looking teaser trailer and all but with so many people gone from Bioware and possible lawsuits coming, itās hard to get excited when it seems less and less likely this game wlll ever see the light of day.

Jason Schrier and Bloomberg are reporting that GTA 6 is ready to be revealed and could be officially announced as early as this week, with a trailer in December, likely at the game awards.
After 10 long years, this is the most promising news that Iāve seen!

I just saw this today 
Iāve never been a GTA player, had no idea how wild some of these fake predictions got, and for so longā¦
Iāll believe it when I see an official announcement from R* themselves. Clearly the fans have gone insane

Part of me wants them to announce the gameā¦ but then also slap a ridiculous year on the announcement for release. ie 2028.

I guess my potential āexcitementā for it will depend on whether it will turn out to be more than just GTA:O 2.0ā¦
Wellā¦ huh. They finally announced when theyāll announce itā¦
Geoff Keighleyās stream is gonna go supernova (if the TGA rumor is true).

David Zaslav is my financial advisor, he is really helping me know what to and what not to purchase
You should get yourself a good planner to avoid making bad purchases, things like boats, sports cars, exotic pets and massive entertainment companies like Warner.

In case itās not already obvious since Octoberās over, Phasmophobia has been delayed from consoles again. Potentially still coming later this year. 
The dev team cites troubles with shifting to remote-work following their office fire, which I still feel really sad for themā¦ 
Must be a really rough time

On the gameās official Steam page, Kinetic Games detailed the latest delay for Phasmophobiaās console release. It explained that its staff was having trouble adjusting to the new remote working environment following the studio fire.

Just found out (thanks YT feed) that Boiling Point: Road to Hell has been released on GOG and Steam. ItĀ“s a somewhat janky (from what I read over the years), but utterly enjoyably looking and rather ambitious oldie that IĀ“ve always wanted to try, so IĀ“m actually super excited by this news.
