Maybe we will allude to some ways in which it relates to the history of the franchise.

But we know this thing just came out.

We don't want to ruin everything for you.

Although the internet has done a pretty decent job of ruining this game's plot for everyone already.

Thanks, leakers.

Anyway, we will talk about all aspects of this gigantic game.

We just have a bit of news to talk about first.

So let's lead, as we usually do, with our patch notes section.

And we just have two notes for you today.

The latest indications of industry decline, the latest stories in video games that everyone is upset about and has been for the past week.

We're going to talk about a PlayStation-centric story and an Xbox-centric story.

There's been a leadership change at Xbox.

There's also been yet another studio closure at Sony.

So let's start with the latter.

Bluepoint is no more.

The famed remake studio that has made many great new versions of old games.

is not going to be making any more of those because they have been shut down.

You have perhaps played Bluepoint's versions of Shadow of the Colossus, Demon's Souls, of course.

They worked on Uncharted.

They worked on God of War.
