Remedy Logo Facing Trademark Dispute From Rockstar Games Parent Take-Two Interactive

  by   Jack Breitenbach  
11:28 am in News

Rockstar Games parent company Take-Two Interactive has apparently been involved in a trademark dispute with Control and Alan Wake II studio Remedy Entertainment. The dispute, which was reportedly filed back in September 2023, accuses the recently revamped Remedy logo of being too similar to Rockstar’s own.

The trademarks for Remedy’s logo are visible online on the UK’s Intellectual Property Office website. We’ve included images of the trademarks for viewing below:

According to the trademark’s historic details, both Remedy logos were filed in May of 2023. Since then, they went through an examination and publication process before ultimately being opposed on September 12 of last year. Looking at the oppositions information, it’s clear to see that Take-Two Interactive is the company behind the dispute.

This isn’t the first time Rockstar’s parent company has done something like this. Back in 2021, the company filed a dispute against Hazelight Studios for their game It Takes Two. They claimed the game’s title was too close to their own company name and effectively blocked Hazelight from securing the title for sequels. It’s a move that seems kind of scummy, especially since anyone who plays enough video games to know Take-Two Interactive is going to be able to differentiate between the massive holding company and the indie darling Game of the Year winner.

We can’t imagine Take-Two will actually get anywhere with this dispute, but it sure is unsurprising to see them try. We’ll be sure to let our readers know if this case progresses any further.

Ubisoft Plus Director Discusses the Rise of Subscription Services and Says Gamers Should Get Used to Not Owning Games

  by   Jack Breitenbach  
10:38 am in News

After a recent revamp of their popular subscription service, Ubisoft Plus Director of Subscriptions Philippe Tremblay sat down for an interview to discuss the changing landscape of video games and the mediums they’re delivered in. According to him, gamers should get used to making the shift to digital and give up on owning their games.

The interview in question was conducted by GamesIndustry.biz, who talked to Tremblay about the new Ubisoft Plus Premium subscription and what it means for Ubisoft’s future. Tremblay had a good bit to say regarding how people interact with their subscription:

We looked at the consumer behaviour and how people were interacting with our offer and we saw an opportunity for us to evolve. When we look at how gamers engage with our different games, we see that our back catalogue is still very active and alive. So we saw an opportunity to offer these worlds to our consumers for a lower fee. And this is a response to the behaviour that we saw from players.

There are multiple behaviours. There are definitely a lot of people who come in for one game and then decide to buy it after [the subscription ends]. That’s part of the reality and that’s okay with us.

Their new model is apparently bringing in new players who wouldn’t touch their products before, according to Tremblay. There are plenty of gamers who are now engaging solely on the subscription side of Ubisoft’s library. It’s a new alternative to outright buying the games they want to play, and it’s working for lots of people.

This idea of playing a game without owning it is one that Tremblay insists is going to become the norm for gaming. While he expresses sympathy for those who hold onto their physical media, he also says that the time of ownership is fading fast:

One of the things we saw is that gamers are used to, a little bit like DVD, having and owning their games. That’s the consumer shift that needs to happen. They got comfortable not owning their CD collection or DVD collection. That’s a transformation that’s been a bit slower to happen [in games]. As gamers grow comfortable in that aspect… you don’t lose your progress. If you resume your game at another time, your progress file is still there. That’s not been deleted. You don’t lose what you’ve built in the game or your engagement with the game. So it’s about feeling comfortable with not owning your game.

I still have two boxes of DVDs. I definitely understand the gamers perspective with that. But as people embrace that model, they will see that these games will exist, the service will continue, and you’ll be able to access them when you feel like. That’s reassuring.

Tremblay’s not wrong. We’ve already seen both Microsoft and PlayStation begin to sell all-digital consoles. Game streaming has also been an endeavor of numerous companies such as Amazon, Microsoft, Netflix, and more. We’re on a pretty constant clip towards dissolving physical media as a whole. It won’t be too long before your physical library takes on a status not unlike a collection of vinyls.

We’re watching closely to see where the future of Ubisoft Plus leads. Stay tuned into us here at MP1st to keep yourself in the loop.

BF 2042 Update 1.000.050 Fires Out for Patch Version 6.2.1 This Jan. 16

  by   James Lara  
3:46 am in News

A small hotfix for Battlefield 2042 is rolling out for all gamers, which current-gen gamers will see as BF 2042 update 1.000.050. This is the Battlefield 2042 update 6.2.1 that was announced last week.

BF 2042 Update 1.000.050 Patch Notes | BF 2042 Update Today Patch Notes:

Size: 685MB (PS5)  (PS4)

CHANGELOG

  • The YUV-2 Pondhawk is now available from the Light Ground Transport Vehicle list for Custom Conquest, Air Superiority and Ground Superiority Custom Experiences in Battlefield Portal.
  • The YUV-2 Pondhawk should no longer spawn under the map when deploying on it within Breakthrough > Flashpoint as the attacking side, during the final sector.
  • Attachments for the RM68 will now correctly display the Charon Weapon Skin colors rather than appear as factory standard items.
  • Soldiers will now be able to successfully spawn on Capture Point A4 whilst it is being contested by the enemy team on Control > Breakaway.
  • Fixed an issue on F-35E Panther changing its flying characteristics after activating VTOL while using mouse and keyboard peripherals.
  • F-35E Panther and SU-57 Felon should now have similar flight sensitivity while using mouse and keyboard peripherals.
  • Further improvements have been made to sticky input while using mouse and keyboard peripherals.

Dev Comment: This will make triggering sticky input quicker and easier especially for default settings, allowing players to do loops without constantly dragging their mouse across the mousepad. Players will still need to provide aggressive input in order to initially trigger this maneuver.

While Season 7 is due for a reveal and release in March, check out what to expect in the meantime in this Road to Season 7 roadmap.

Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising Gets New Gameplay Trailer Showing Off Lucilius

  by   James Lara  
5:08 pm in News

It is an exciting day tomorrow for Granblue fans, as Cygames will release the first DLC fighter for Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising! To celebrate, the studio has released an all-new trailer for Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, showing off Lucilius in all his glory. 

Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising – Lucilius Gameplay Trailer

Lucilius will be the first DLC fighter to join the roster since the game’s launch last year, with five more planned to be released throughout the year, up until October. 

The next fighter, who happens to be a crossover character from Square Enix’s Nier games, 2B, will arrive in late February. You can read up more about the rest of the fighters in the recently announced Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising roadmap, though Cygames has kept the final two fighters a secret. All the characters will come as part of the Deluxe Character Pass that is bundled with the Deluxe Edition of Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising. They also are sold separately, with the character pass also becoming available outside of the Deluxe Edition. 

Lucilius will be available tomorrow alongside Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising update 1.1, which will also introduce a new stage, a battle pass, several bug fixes, tweaks and adjustments, and more. 

We’ll be sure to let you all know when the patch is available and when you can start playing as Lucilius.

Report: Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League Post-Launch Content Datamined, Expect Seasons and Episodes

  by   Alex Co  
4:23 pm in News

While Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s endgame has already been detailed alongside a tease for the Joker DLC, it looks like a recent datamine has unearthed what to expect from Rocksteady Studios regarding the Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League post-launch content plans.

Outed by reputable leaker Miller Ross, we see an outline for the first few seasons, as well as “episodes.”

(Note: While the info below is not official and not confirmed by WB or Rocksteady, it might still be considered spoiler-ish in nature, so proceed at your own discretion).

Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League Post-Launch Content Datamine:

Image

According to Miller, the game launches into what’s coined as “Season 0,” which is what’s also known as the pre-season in other online multiplayer games. Each season is split into two episodes, though Season 0 only has one episode.

Here’s what Miller currently knowns about the game’s post-launch plans:

STORYLINE 1

YEAR 1

SEASON O
Episode 1: N/A [Launch; Campaign and post-game] Episode 2: Finite Crisis

SEASON 1
Episode 1: Fear [+ Joker]
Episode 2: Duality

SEASON 2
Episode 1: Frozen Heart [+
Episode 2: Winter

SEASON 3 [this seems to coincide with Halloween] Episode 1: Thieves [+ Lawless]
Episode 2: Balance

SEASON 4
Episode 1: Assassin [+ Deathstroke] Episode 2: Control

YEAR 2 [this isn’t sorted into seasons (yet?) and is generally kinda amorphous]

Episode 1: Focus [+ ??? “Focus” seems closest to Katana out of the year 2 names I’ve heard] Episode 2: Finality

STORYLINE 2 [my theory is that this won’t happen if the game bombs and is a clear ending point if they want out]

Based on our conversation with Miller, players will be hunting down a specific enemy in each episode (which we won’t name to avoid spoiling the game), and this is the game’s first post-launch storyline. Furthermore, it’s understood that each new playable character will be released in the first episode of each new season. Players can expect each character to have a tie-in to the episode they’re set to be released, and that will be reflected in the title.

Same as with any datamined info, nothing here has been confirmed by the developers, so take it with a grain of salt, That said, Miller has been pretty spot-on with their previous datamines and leaks, so we’re running this one with confidence.

Given the game’s closed alpha is in the hands of a lot of gamers, it’s not surprising to see stuff about it seeping out via datamine. Chances are, this won’t be the last time we see something datamined for the game.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League flies out this February 2, but will be available starting January 30 for Deluxe Edition buyers on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
