Recent layoffs at Amazon will likely impact Amazon Games and its ability to develop large-scale games. This includes titles like New World: Aeternum, which at one point had over 913,000 players on Steam. Development of New World: Aeternum, which just released the Nighthaven update, mainly happens at the company’s Irvine location. Amazon Games also publishes other popular online games, such as Lost Ark and Throne and Liberty, for players in North America and Europe.

The Pokémon Trading Card Game has also been generating a lot of excitement recently with several new releases. The introduction of “Mega Evolution” marked a new chapter for the game, bringing Mega Pokémon back into play for the first time since the “XY: Evolutions” set. Another expansion, “Phantasmal Flames,” is coming in November, featuring Mega Charizard as the main attraction. Now, Pokémon GO and the Pokémon TCG are joining forces for a special event.

When Battlefield’s Season 1 launched, REDSEC introduced several game modes, notably Gauntlet with its specific missions. However, those same missions can also be played within the regular Battle Royale experience.

Bloomberg reports that Amazon is planning layoffs impacting its video game and cloud computing businesses, but hasn’t provided details. TopMob has contacted Amazon for information on how many employees will be affected in the gaming division and at Twitch, but has not yet received a reply.

REDSEC has launched its main battle royale experience. Gauntlet Mode is part of REDSEC, but it’s a fast-paced, team-focused game that keeps you on the edge of your seat. With short matches and clear goals, teamwork is essential to avoid being eliminated.

REDSEC stands out from other battle royale games by adding tanks and various vehicles to the map, and it also introduces some unique gameplay elements to the familiar genre.

The livestream began at 1pm Eastern Time / 10am Pacific Time, showcasing independent games from developers including Serenity Forge, Don’t Nod, and Playtonic, among others.

The Silent Hill series is widely considered a classic survival horror franchise, celebrated for its deeply unsettling psychological scares, incredibly tense atmosphere, and memorable characters. It remains popular even decades after its original release. State of Survival, while not as critically acclaimed, is partnering with Silent Hill in an upcoming event, hoping to attract new players, especially those who enjoy Silent Hill 3.

Okay, so as a gamer, I’ve been following this whole EA situation pretty closely. Basically, EA just got bought out for a massive $55 billion! It was a group of investors – Silver Lake, Affinity Partners, and the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia – who put the deal together. The really weird part? It’s a leveraged buyout, which means EA is now stuck with about $20 billion in debt. It’s a little worrying, honestly, and I’m curious to see how this will affect the games they make in the future.

Okay, so the new Battlefield REDSEC Battle Royale update just dropped, and it’s a big one! They’ve added a whole new Battle Royale mode, plus the usual seasonal stuff like a Battle Pass to grind. Honestly, it feels like Battlefield is really going head-to-head with Call of Duty now, trying to compete directly in that space.
