In today's Daily Fix:Phantom Blade Zero has sold 4 million (!) copies in just three days, and it's a sure bet we've seen the birth of a new franchise. Although it's a far cry from fellow Chinese-developed game with Eastern influence Black Myth: Wukong, which sold 10 million (!!) in three days, it's still a fantastic start to a game that is also resonating with critics. In other news, Nintendo has revealed the development team behind The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake: Entertainment Planning & Development Production Group No. 3. While not exactly a household name, they've been behind every major Zelda game for the past 30 years, so the remake is in good hands.

In today's Daily Fix:A new report from Bloomberg claims EA had to choose between Star Wars and Mass Effect, which resulted in the closure of BioWare. EA is facing financial pressure due to the $18 billion debt it took on during the Saudi buyout. The company then only had enough budget to back one big sci-fi game, and they chose Star Wars Battlefront 3 as the safer bet. In other news, Gears of War: E-Day has moved only 400,000 copies across Xbox and PC, a relatively low number for a marquee franchise. The Verge is reporting that Game Pass is the cause of low sales, as the game was a Day One launch title for the service.

The setting for the game is also heavily rumored to be Hammerfell. In other news, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma insists that Series X and S sales are being constrained by their availability...yeah sure. A quick glance at any major retailer's website shows the Xbox Series X and S and their many variants are in stock (except of course for some of the limited edition models).

In today's Daily Fix:Arkane Lyon is still plugging away at Marvel's Blade, but the studio may be on the chopping block if Microsoft can't find a buyer for the studio by the end of the year. Microsoft is also looking for a partner to "support" the development of the game as it nears completion. That support could be in extra financing for the studio. Marvel's Blade doesn't have a firm release date but it is expected to be out sometime next year. In other news, a hacker has claimed a $50,000 bounty from Sony for reporting an exploit, but has now drawn the ire of others in the PS5 homebrew scene.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch!
