Sony has delisted Horizon Zero Dawn from the Epic Games Store.
The first of Guerrilla’s Horizon games initially arrived on PC back in 2020. However, four years later, it is no longer available to purchase on Epic’s storefront. Rather, the page now states Zero Dawn is “Unavailable”.
At the time of writing, the game’s Steam page is still live.

Read moreAs players continue to struggle with the final boss of Elden Ring DLC Shadow of the Erdtree, one savvy Twitch streamer has destroyed the boss in just one hit.
To be honest, this was only a matter of time. While reactions to the DLC initially focused on its high difficulty – particularly the final boss – players have slowly found various methods of getting through the encounter. And this might be the most impressive (and convoluted) yet.
Spoilers follow.

Read moreThings are about to get lively on the Sea of Thieves! After spending far too long as giant, trash-talking disembodied head, the nefarious Captain Flameheart finally makes a proper return to Rare’s multiplayer pirate adventure next Thursday, 25th July – and he’ll be terrorising players with his formidable fire-belching warship as Season 13 gets underway.
As Rare explained earlier this year, that warship, The Burning Blade, serves as a new roving world event out on the waves, giving players the opportunity to go head-to-head against its awesome firepower if they so choose. The Burning Blade is officially the most powerful ship in Sea of Thieves, sporting ten cannons, the ability launch Ashen Roar balls of fire from its flaming bow, and a sizeable crew of obsidian…
Read moreThe development team behind EA Sports FC 25 – which launches this year on 27th September and hosts England star Jude Bellingham on its cover – isn’t worried about a potential revival of the FIFA brand at another developer.
FIFA itself has not been shy about wanting to rope in a new company to make a fresh football game with its branding, following the collapse of its long-running partnership with EA Sports back in 2022.
Rumours have persisted that the FIFA licence has now been picked up by another developer with plans to launch a fresh FIFA product in time for the next World Cup. Who could it be? Well, 2K, publisher of the NBA 2K, PGA Tour 2K and WWE 2K sports series, has reportedly been in the frame.
So, are EA’s FC team worried about a new rival? In sho…

Read moreTove Jansson’s beloved Moomins are heading to Journey developer ThatGameCompany’s acclaimed free-to-play “social adventure” Sky: Children of the Light this autumn, and there’s more news on its upcoming animated series Sky: The Two Embers, which is now due next year.
Sky: Children of the Light, which initially launched for iOS back in 2019 before expanding to PC and consoles, is a sort of leisurely puzzle adventure set among the different realms of a beautiful kingdom in the clouds – and it’s all built around a gently collaborative multiplayer core designed to encourage “compassion, friendship, and altruism”.
It’s also a game that follows a live-service-style seasonal model, with those seasons occasionally featuring collaborations with other properties and peo…
Read moreGreedFall 2: The Dying World, the sequel to 2019’s scrappy but enjoyable historical fantasy RPG GreedFall, will launch into Steam early access on 24th September this year.
Despite its rough edges, the original GreedFall was a bit of a surprise hit, its blend of RPG action and BioWare-style player choice striking enough of a chord that it went on to sell 2m copies. So it wasn’t a huge surprise when developer Spiders announced plans for a follow-up in 2022.
As we learned at the time, GreedFall 2 begins three years prior to the events of the first game, casting players as a Teer Fradee native, uprooted from their island home and taken to the continent of Gacane. Here, they must use “diplomacy, cunning, or combat”, as well as help from their allies, to regain the…
Read more Translators contracted from firms outside of Nintendo have complained about not being credited for their work on high-profile games from the Mario maker, including The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Super Mario RPG.
Speaking with Game Developer, anonymous sources who worked for external translator agencies on Nintendo’s projects said they had been left off credits. In addition, sources said they had been asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement which prevented them from talking about their work for 10 years.
“I kind of accepted [miscrediting] as ‘part of the business’ but that doesn’t mean it’s fair or right,” one source who worked on Nintendo projects through service providers Localsoft and Keywords told the publication. …
