Microsoft has closed a number of Bethesda studios, including Redfall maker Arkane Austin, Hi-Fi Rush developer Tango Gameworks, and more in devastating cuts at Bethesda, IGN can confirm.

Affected devs:

  • Arkane Austin (closed)
  • Tango Gameworks (closed)
  • Alpha Dog Studios (closed)
  • Roundhouse Games (absorbed into ZeniMax Online Studios)

These changes are grounded in prioritizing high-impact titles and further investing in Bethesda’s portfolio of blockbuster games and beloved worlds which you have nurtured over many decades.

    Don’t get my hopes up.

    If halo infinite had been a well balanced Battle Royale game… I’d probably have thrown away everything I love due to overplaying a damn game.

    I’m just so sick of multiplayer shooters. The repetition didn’t seem so bad when I was young, but now it just numbs my brain.

    But BR is the perfect combo of “my squad vs the world” that you get in a PVE coop, but also the rush of beating real life opponents that makes you keep coming back.

    Warzone is all my friends play now, but it’s gotten so stale that no one really pushes to squad up too frequently.

    Sorry for the tangent rant.

      Halo infinite multiplayer is free. The forge community has created a battle royale mode I’ve heard. Maybe give it a shot? I don’t know anything other than it exists.

      I personally can’t stand battle royale games, so sorry, but I hope the next isn’t. It’s just not what Halo is. If they released a mode, or a side game as a Battle Royale I’m all for it, but not a full main game.

      I feel the burnout though. My normal gaming friends and I are in a mode of trying new games right now and don’t play together as much.
