MagnyusG, do games w Silent Hill f has been banned in Australia, and no one knows why

Considering all the warnings Konami has put on the game it’s no surprise Australia probably pissed their pants when they saw that.

Hotline Miami 2, South Park: The Stick of Truth, and Saints Row 4 are among dozens of games to have been denied an Australian release […]

This is only partially true, Saints Row 4 and The Stick of Truth released modified versions in Australia. Hotline Miami 2 remains without and official release in Australia.

As for Silent Hill f? OFLC have pulled the page listing it as RC.

automaton-media.com/…/silent-hill-f-ban-in-austra…

The screenshot of the pulled page indicates it was an IARC classification i.e. it was automatically classified based an Konami’s answers to a generic survey distributed to classification boards globally. If Konami contest the automatic classification then it will be looked at by actual humans who may determine that offensive content is contextualized to a degree that it can be released (or failing that give a list of content that needs to be modified).

Kelly,

And it’s been given: MA15+ Strong Horror Violence

Damn Martin Luiga is involved with Longdue now? I’ve only heard negative things about that studio before and I also thought he was already a part of Red Info with Kurvitz and Rostov. The Disco Elysium drama vortex just keeps on churning it seems.

That’s some good news. I was sad when the last game came out it was basically released within the same week that the visions series was no longer going to be created. I hope they make some more RPGs and try to make something new and original.

Whorehoarder, do games w Elden Ring Nightreign releases May 30th

Hello. I live under rock. What is Nightreign?

donuts,

Try opening the article!

The FromSoftware spin-off to its incredibly successful epic will be out on 30th May 2025 across PS4, PS5, Xbox consoles, and PC (Steam).

First revealed at last year’s The Game Awards, Nightreign is a standalone online co-op game for three players, but with hints of Fortnite.

simple,

A $40 co-op focused spinoff. From what we understand the game loop will be jumping into a randomly generated world with friends and surviving with friends for 3 days. There’s a playtest soon, we’ll see how it actually plays then.

ShepherdPie,

3 days of surviving against Elden Ring enemies or what? Sounds like a weird departure from SoulsBorne games.

The whole description of the game when they announced it made it sound like a mod. I was shocked to see it’s an official Fromsoft game. I do not have high hopes for it.

dogslayeggs,

My understanding from a video I watched is it’s a mix of shrinking world survival like PUBG and co-op Elden Ring with a boss at the end of each day when a shrinking happens.

A cash grab from a corporation that doesn’t want to pay artists to make an original game.

Stovetop,

I’d say you’d have a point if FromSoft didn’t just publish two major games within a year of each other (Elden Ring, Armored Core) and then a game-sized DLC on top of that.

Could Nightreign have just been another Elden Ring DLC instead? I don’t know, maybe. But it’s not priced as a full game and I’m not sure why people expect it to be one.

It’s an original game. Many assets are not original. Many others will be. This is a very normal part of game development. As much as “asset flips” were an issue back when the Steam floodgates opened, people seem to have really misunderstood what the problem actually was.

Elevator7009sAlt, do games w Football Manager 25 cancelled, as Sega shifts focus to FM26

I’m not a football/soccer person, but I do feel bad for what happened here. I saw in the article a survey on your favorite management game with a Football Manager title as an option, how are these games if you look at them as management games instead of as sports game?

I feel like Remakes recently have just been like that. This is looking good, and then there’s the SH2 Remake and from what i heard all the Resident Evil Remakes have been amazing too

emax_gomax, do games w Ubisoft announces studio closure as it lays off 185 staff

Wow AC shadows pre sale levels must be really bad. Not too surprising tho. For a studio that basically said “there’s way more interesting time periods we want to focus on” the fact they finally went to feudal Japan felt more like they ran out of interesting ideas. Doesn’t help ghost of tsushima beat them by a few years and was basically the best AC game since black flag.

How about give us some sequels to long dead and beloved IPs you that were tantalized by Sony in Astro Bot eh? Still waiting on Syphon Filter ending… killzone? Resistance? The Getaway??? (Okay maybe not that one due to GTA existing)

Good thing i’m not going to be here for any of them.

caut_R, do games w Sony is now FromSoftware owner Kadokawa's largest shareholder

On one hand I‘m worried about possible game direction influence on FROM titles, on the other hand I’m hopeful that maybe we finally get competent Soulsborne PC ports if Sony acquires them even if only for upcoming titles

NotMyOldRedditName,

My money is on 3 months after the first release of a FROM title on PC, sony will come in and force them to create a sony account with crazy DRM to play it.

Then after the outrage from that, force it on all previous FROM titles.

This game looked nice and was awful to play. There isnt really anything else to say.
