I met the new Remedy CEO. If you needed reassuring about the direction of the developer... this should do the trick.

How are we feeling about those console price rises? Let's ask @matpiscatella.bsky.social (New podcast incoming)

"Outside of a few quid for some PlayStation players, the only people I can see who really benefits from this lawsuit are the lawyers that proposed it in the first place"

“Bond has a special place on Nintendo. And I promise I will do everything I can, and I can do quite a lot being the CEO, to get that in a great shape.” www.thegamebusiness.com/p/we-talk-00...

I always enjoy chatting to Hakan. I asked him about the firm's Switch 2 experience so far, how the GTA 6 delay helped, whether Xbox pulling funding from third-party studios impacted Project Fantasy, and a lot about James Bond

In today's Micro, I go a bit starry-eyed about Capcom

"When it comes to the live service games, PlayStation has seen huge success on PC (and even Xbox). But the single-player results are less impressive." www.thegamebusiness.com/p/should-pla...

Next week’s episodes are proper bangers. Especially this one

Our monthly market report for March is here! We look at the most played games globally, the best-selling titles, how the hardware market is performing, and what the media is talking about (this one is for paid subscribers) www.thegamebusiness.com/p/the-state-...

So I played 007: First Light last week. A rare treat for me. And I didn't want to stop. It's very much not Hitman, but you can tell it was made by the same people. I pre-ordered it the moment I left the event

According to Circana’s Q1 2026 consumer survey, 41% of US gamers say they play on a console because of exclusive games. www.thegamebusiness.com/p/should-pla...

Super bumper edition of the Show. Exclusives! Influencers! Old shooter games from the 1990s and 2000s!

“So, there are some The Walking Dead games that came out that we didn’t have anything to do with. And without disparaging our partner, they did a crap job. Those games were terrible. Ok, I am disparaging our partner.” www.thegamebusiness.com/p/the-walkin...

Some fun quotes in this one. “If I had encountered Game of Thrones first in the game space, I never would’ve read all the books and watched the shows."

In today's The Game Business Micro, we ask: Is the Xbox memo just a lot of noise and PR? Or something more? (Paid Subscribers) www.thegamebusiness.com/p/the-xbox-m...

“I don’t see GTA as a competitor, it’s like a phenomenon” www.thegamebusiness.com/p/flawed-ope...

This is a typical modern industry story. AAA veterans form a studio in 2020, get big funding (this time from NetEase)... but come 2024/25, no publishers will fund the end of development and launch the game... so what do you do? We speak to Liquid Swords, the developers of the GTA-like Samson

I found out a lot about what Poncle is up to. All of it surprising

Xbox will lower the price of Game Pass Ultimate from $29.99 to $22.99, but future Call of Duty games will no-longer be included from launch. www.thegamebusiness.com/p/xbox-cuts-...

How about this for an unusual bonus episode of The Game Business Show… an onstage interview with stand up comic, and Taskmaster/Last One Laughing star Maisie Adam. Video only for this one as the audio is a little ropey www.thegamebusiness.com/p/watch-us-c...

I saw the Mario Galaxy movie. Will watch again

"I don’t know why we would ever go back to working with a publisher" www.thegamebusiness.com/p/dispatch-d...
