As you all know, MS was wanting to by Discord for $10B Apparently MS acquired Nuance Communications Inc for $16B last week Not sure if this has anything to do with ending talks with Discord Amazon Cancels LOTR MMO [Link] Amazon’s LOTR MMO announced in 2019 has now been cancelled. The game had been in development at Amazon Game Studios in a partnership with Chinese company Leyou Technologies Holdings Purchased by none other than Tencent in December The negotiations following this acquisition led to a dispute between Amazon and Tencent that lead to the game’s cancellation The Amazon team working on the game will be moved to other projects Sad news for Amazon Game Studios who hasn’t been able to get off the ground since 2014. Even New World has been delayed repeatedly. Resident Evil Re:Verse [Link] Another new RE title being worked on, Re:Verse, is a multiplayer team deathmatch with teams of 4-6 facing each other in 5 minute "survival horror revenge matches."

It has been going from 2am and is running until 2am tomorrow (4/22). You just have to have a Capcom ID, which is free to sign up for, and meet the minimum specs.
