It’s been a huge week for video games, with a plethora of announcements to kick off the year. Between the new Indiana Jones game, Ubisoft working on a Star Wars project, and everything else that happened this week, Game Rant editors Cameron Corliss and Anthony Taormina had a lot to talk about for the fourth episode of Arcade.
Bethesda’s Indiana Jones game could be a huge deal, but there are some big questions about how developer Machine Games will approach it. With the studio’s previous work on Wolfenstein, it’s clear that it can nail a narrative about fighting Nazis, but how the experience with hyper-violence in Wolfenstein will translate to the relatively tame Indiana Jones franchise isn’t clear.
Meanwhile, Lucasfilm Games had some other big announcements, with the studio upping its involvement with new Star Wars projects. Plus, Ubisoft will be making its own open-world Star Wars game. With Ubisoft Massive, the developer behind The Division, tackling the new game, a live service title doesn’t seem unlikely, but what exactly the game will end up being is still a mystery.
On top of all that, the Nintendo Switch has continued to dominate sales charts, Cyberpunk 2077 got an underwhelming roadmap, Sony unveiled new release windows for some games, and a listener wants to know when gamers will wisen up to aggressive sales tactics and broken releases in games.
