Save: bit.ly/NeoEpicLoot We are excited to share that the release date for Star Wars Outlaws, the highly-anticipated action game from Ubisoft, has been narrowed down to late 2024. Disney's recent blog post has finally unveiled the release window for the game, shedding light on its intriguing storyline set between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Players will immerse themselves in an open-world experience, embodying the role of Kay Vess, a scoundrel navigating the turmoil of the civil war between the Empire and the Rebellion.

That's what we call a Core concept.

NDA this, NDA that... For someone who just can't keep their mouth shut it's hard not being able to go into the details of what makes this achievement truly special.   I can say, however, that seeing how things are moving in the industry from the inside makes you dizzy. Some talk about building the plane while you fly it. Well, this year it felt like the plane also had to be invented, drawn, designed, and tested while you were up in the air.   And still, video games have shown to be as refreshing as ever. I personally feel the focus shifting back into deep, emotionally complex stories. Well, maybe I'm just getting old and can't play competitive games anymore. I like to think that's not the case and that prime storytelling is back to being close to developers' and publisher's hearts again. Just look at this year's winners (and their cultural impact!) and tell me if I'm wrong.   And so, as narrative takes the spotlight, good localization becomes an even more vital necessity for game creators. Keywords Studios’ bet on quality has always paid off, and when the fog of change has cleared, it will be clear we made the right decision once again. #ImagineMore #KeywordsStudios

The Metaverse is very far from being dead. That is no thanks to Meta and Mr Zuckerberg in overhyping and under delivering on related developments. It’s great to see that the real work continues, and that major brands understand its relevance and future value. In parallel, it’s also interesting that associations in the experiential space state otherwise. The monetized virtual experience for the masses and luxury pricing for real life experiences that I speak about (and people passionately disagree with) is continuing to develop and accelerate. Game engines are the operating system of the future.

This looks very exciting ... and could open up a whole lot more opportunity for UNREAL artists for sure. Disney is investing $1.5 billion for an equity stake in Fortnite and Unreal Engine maker Epic Games as part of a broader partnership to create a new Disney gaming universe. The companies plan to create an expansive and open games and entertainment universe. I would say they’re building a metaverse, if the word weren’t so overused late and out of favor with some. (They didn’t actually use that word). Bob Iger, CEO of Disney, announced the investment in an interview with CNBC today. The companies will collaborate on a new games and entertainment universe that will further expand the reach of beloved Disney stories and experiences. It will be a multi-year project, built by Epic Games. Full article here: https://lnkd.in/eyS4pNwJ #unrealengine5 #disney #epicgames
