I didn’t play the original Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag back in the day, so getting to try Black Flag Resynced early is pretty exciting.
Big thanks to Ubisoft for hooking me up with early access. I’ve heard for years how much people love this one, so I’m ready to finally see what the hype was about.
PlayStation going digital-only in 2028 sounds like a story about discs, but I think it is bigger than that.
This is about used games, resale, lending, retailer competition, digital ownership, and how much control players actually have over the games they pay for.
New WHY Series video is up. Black Flag Resynced gets a July 9th release date. Thirteen years after the original. And honestly, the game looks good. The team put real care into it. But while Ubisoft was building this remake, they also cancelled three original IP projects. Three new ideas nobody had ever played. Gone. This video isn't really about Black Flag. It's about what the decision to make Black Flag instead of something new says about where Ubisoft actually is right now. And whether this retreat to the past is a reset or just the most beloved thing they had left to offer. Watch it here: https://youtu.be/oQ0NEWSjFi0 Drop your thoughts below. Do you think Ubisoft is making the right call?

Do you still care about physical games, or has digital already won for you?

Nothing big happened this week in gaming…
…but it might’ve said more than most weeks do.
This week felt like a shift:
• Epic layoffs
• Fortnite struggling to hold players
• more games than ever… but less commitment

Crimson Desert launches soon, but there is still a surprising amount of confusion around what the game actually is.
It started development connected to Black Desert Online.
Now it is launching as a single player open world game.
But the systems inside the game still feel very MMO-adjacent.
Combat combos.
Crafting.
Camp management.
Life skills.
So the real question is simple.
What kind of game is Crimson Desert actually trying to be?
