Ubisoft Ends XDefiant Support & Studio Closures | FromSoftware's New Projects | Bloodborne Tease? - Ubisoft has confirmed it’s discontinuing support for *XDefiant* and shutting down studios in San Francisco, Osaka, and downsizing in Sydney. Despite an encouraging start, the free-to-play FPS couldn’t sustain enough players. Servers will remain active until June 2025, but no new downloads or purchases are allowed. - FromSoftware isn’t working on *Elden Ring 2* but is developing multiple new games across different genres, some led by other developers. Director Hidetaka Miyazaki hinted that the *Elden Ring* IP could return in the future. - Bloodborne fans are buzzing after a PlayStation 30th-anniversary video showed a brief clip of the game’s Hunter with the words “It’s about persistence.” Is this a tease or just a cruel nod to fans? Let us know what you think! Hot takes, trash opinions!
