Today on The Dead Drop, Roblox gets legally served over a TikTok dance, Embracer slices itself into thirds, and Ninja Gaiden slips back into 2D like it never left. I’m Matthew Bliss, guiding you through a crisp collection of headlines featuring mobile spending regrets in Japan, RuneScape’s dragon-fueled detour, and Pocketpair’s unexpected pivot into publishing.

We’ve also got Doom-branded Xbox gear, Netflix’s latest narrative experiment, and a $900 million lawsuit that sounds like someone rage-quit real life. All wrapped up with dry wit and zero microtransactions. Let’s get you briefed.
