The Unexpected Arrival of Octopath Traveler II on Xbox
In a surprising turn of events, Octopath Traveler II, originally released by Square Enix for the Switch, PlayStation, and PC, has now made its way to Xbox. This addition is particularly notable as it’s available directly through Game Pass, enhancing its accessibility to a broader audience. Alongside its sequel, the original Octopath Traveler has also returned to the Game Pass lineup. Notably, the first installment was only released on PlayStation just yesterday, marking a significant expansion of availability across gaming consoles.
Concord Sets Its Price to Entice Gamers
Firewalk Studios has unveiled some exciting news about their upcoming title, Concord. Scheduled for release at the end of August, the game will be priced at 40 euros. This pricing strategy mirrors that of the successful Helldivers 2 and appears to be Sony’s attempt to make this multiplayer shooter more accessible to gamers looking for quality entertainment without breaking the bank.
Bespoke Pixel: A Fresh Start in Barcelona
David Polfeldt, known for his leadership at Ubisoft Massive until 2021, has embarked on a new journey in the gaming industry with the establishment of Bespoke Pixel. This new studio based in the heart of Barcelona aims to assemble an international team of craft-minded individuals passionate about game development. Though specific details about their inaugural project remain under wraps, the studio’s ambition is palpable. With a hefty 25 million euros already secured for funding, Bespoke Pixel is poised to make significant strides in its early years.
