Everchanging Landscape
Episode 44
Monday, 22 January, 2024
On this week's episode of Go For Bronze we discuss a possible future where Microsoft plays the role of publisher over console manufacturer. Leaks have come out of two potential games coming to other platforms possibly as an experiment. The two titles in question are Sea of Thieves and Hi-Fi Rush. Outside of the world of exclusives there is much to breakdown on the subscription front. We now know Square Enix developed multiplayer game Foamstars will be launching on PlayStation Plus and by the sounds of the description it will debut on PlayStation Plus Essential meaning once added to your library you will retain access for as long as you have an active subscription. Are you comfortable with temporary access? That is exactly what Ubisoft wants to know for the future of subscriptions. The French company is making the point that for the subscription model to be successful we must be ok not owning games. This is indeed a conundrum not only for us as consumers but also for industry greats. Larian Studios the team behind critically acclaimed Baldur's Gate 3 says that they will not put games on subscription services and that from studio to the players is the best relationship. As for what will be on subscription services this month, we cover that here too talking about the new titles added to the extra and premium tiers of PlayStation Plus. We also spend time to discuss the success of Hogwarts Legacy as the first game in 15 years to have higher sales than a Call of Duty or Rockstar game at the end of the year. Curious about the last game to do it 15 years ago? That would be none other than my beloved Rock Band developed by Harmonix who have announced they will no longer be adding DLC to Rock Band 4 and telling me I should play Fortnite Festival instead, no thank you.
