Until Dawn Developers reportedly working on an Unreal Engine 5-based PlayStation Games

0

Until Dawn and other experimental PlayStation games like Hidden Agency and The Impatient were produced at a period when Sony and developer Supermassive Games worked together quite successfully. Unfortunately, for some reason, things seemed to go south, and Supermassive went on to work on books for other publishers, including The Quarry and The Dark Pictures Anthology. Well, it appears that at least some of the individuals who contributed to the success of Until Dawn are once more engaged with PlayStation.

A ResetEra member named Toumari noticed that a new studio called Ballistic Moon, which was co-founded by former Supermassive senior programmer Chris Lamb had not yet made any significant official announcements. Along with them are several other former Supermassive employees, like creative director Neil McEwan and motion capture director Joshua Archer. Ballistic Moon is reportedly working on a significant Unreal Engine 5 project for a “large AAA publisher,” according to their website and Twitter feed.

According to a motion capture actor, Project Bates is a project for Ballistic Moon and Sony Interactive Entertainment that is being directed by Joshua Archer. So it appears like at least a portion of the Supermassive band is reuniting to work on a Sony project.

The Halloween Ends clip was also shared by Ballistic Moon with the hashtag #inspiration, and Project Bates certainly looks like it could be a direct nod to Psycho. So, certainly, for now, take everything with a grain of salt, but signs suggest that Ballistic Moon is working on a visual, performance-heavy horror game similar to what Supermassive does best.

PokerBaazi Partners With SHIELD to Enhance Fraud Prevention Capabilities

0

New Delhi, 16th August, 2022 – PokerBaazi, India’s biggest platform for poker enthusiasts, has partnered with SHIELD, the global risk intelligence company to preserve fairplay on their platform and continue providing a safe experience to users by ensuring only genuine players have access to the platform.

Baazi Games’ flagship gaming product, PokerBaazi, is a pioneer in India’s skill-gaming industry. Its audience today comprises over 2 million seasoned and new poker enthusiasts competing on a single integrated gaming platform. The partnership will strengthen PokerBaazi’s existing fraud prevention capabilities with SHIELD’s real-time risk intelligence. Equipped with SHIELD’s Device Intelligence solution, PokerBaazi will be able to proactively detect malicious behavior before fraudsters strike, allowing them to stop risky users from participating in any game before they have the chance to.

India is home to 420 million online gamers, with annual revenue from real-money gaming companies forecasted to reach INR 61.3 billion by 2025. Online poker is one of the most popular sectors of online gaming in India because of its skill factor and high user engagement. However, online poker platforms have also seen their fair share of fraud. Opportunistic players create multiple accounts to collude and rack up rewards. This creates an unfair playing field for other gamers, which adversely affects user trust and the integrity of the platform.

PokerBaazi has built a robust in house in-game fraud prevention system and with SHIELD’s technology will be further enhancing the prevention of activities such as chip dumping and multi-accounting. This provides PokerBaazi’s gamers with a level playing ground and high level of security – similar to what they would experience at a live poker tournament.

“PokerBaazi has always been committed to bringing a world poker experience to our players across India which is similar to the thrill of playing an offline game of poker. Ensuring fairplay is the key component to the success of this mission. We have a zero-tolerance policy against anyone that tries to mess with our player experience. Our partnership with SHIELD has been instrumental in helping us ensure a trusted and fair gaming experience for all – a win-win outcome for us”, said Avneet Rana, Co- Founder and Chief Technology Officer at Baazi Games.

“Trust is the backbone of any real-money gaming site. In an up-and-coming online gaming market like India’s, security has become a quintessential element for any successful skill-gaming organization. We’re thrilled to be partnering with PokerBaazi to safeguard their tournaments – and users – from fraud and abuse. This collaboration will help fuel continued confidence in PokerBaazi’s stellar player experience as they continue to drive growth across India and beyond,” added Justin Lie, Founder and CEO of SHIELD.

Skydance and Marvel first announced their new endeavor in October of last year, but little in the way of specifics have been made public. The firm is also working on a Star Wars game, but it’s doubtful that we’ll see it anytime soon.

About the Other Projects

Beyond those projects that have been officially announced, there is a long list of video games based on Disney properties, such as the Indiana Jones game from Bethesda Softworks, the Spider-Man 2 and Wolverine games from Insomniac Games, and new Star Wars games from Ubisoft’s Massive Entertainment, Respawn Entertainment, Aspyr, and Quantic Dream.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp confused by Barcelona’s spending

Barcelona were in the midst of a financial crisis last season which saw their legendary player Lionel Messi leave the club. However, this summer Barcelona has been on a spending spree and have signed a lot of players including Robert Lewandowski from Barcelona, Leeds United’s Raphinha, Koude from Sevilla etc, which amounts to nearly €200m.

Although Barcelona has unlocked multiple financial levers, many are questioning their spending power. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp are the latest to join the list.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp confused by Barcelona’s spending

Jurgen Klopp said when asked about Barcelona’s spending to Kicker, via 90min: “Not for a variety of reasons. One reason is I am not a financial professional.”

“The second: If I’m told I don’t have any money, then I don’t spend anything anymore. My credit card has also been cut up twice, luckily that was a few years ago. I’m watching this like a football fan, I don’t understand.”

“Barcelona have been outstanding for the past few decades that I have been watching football and I hope they pull it off.”

“The only club I know that ever sold the stadium and other assets in advance was Borussia Dortmund. Aki Watzke had to come at the last second and save the whole thing, and I don’t know if there is an Aki Watzke in Barcelona.”

OPPO is working on two new foldable devices set to launch globally

Oppo has been working on two foldable smartphones featuring the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen1 chip and reportedly the launch for both devices has been scheduled for this fall. The OEM entered the foldable segment in 2021 December with the Find N smartphone. The upcoming smartphones are expected to be named the Find N Fold and the Find N Flip respectively.

As per tipster Yogesh Brar, the flagships are scheduled to debut globally this fall and will go head to head against Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold4 and Z Flip4 respectively. The Find N Fold is a device similar to a tablet while the Find N Flip features a clamshell design.

Both models have been certified by the necessary authorities and they have also been registered with the European Union Intellectual Property Office. There is still a lot of ambiguity with respect to the specifications of these foldable devices but we can expect to see them leak or be revealed soon.

Oppo upcoming foldable

It is not surprising that Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen1 chip powers these smartphones, it is the best flagship chip for top-tier smartphones as it is powerful and efficient as well. Qualcomm is hoping that the increased demand for its premier chip will lead to a stellar year in terms of sales, it has already inked a partnership with Manchester United.

Oppo hopes that the Find N Fold and Find N Flip will have the same reception as the Find N did. The smartphone was sold out within minutes after being released, as of now, there are details on the pricing of the smartphones. Considering that the foldable will go against Samsung, we can expect the pricing to be aggressive and competitive.
