Barring any further delays, Rockstar Games will release Grand Theft Auto VI this November, and it's expected to have a massive launch. The title's debut looms so large that some have theorized other developers may change their own plans to stay out of the way. Craig Duncan, the head of Xbox Game Studios, said in an interview that a busy and competitive landscape is nothing new.

Between hulking bioweapon super-soldiers and mutated wildlife, your run-of-the-mill zombie in Resident Evil games is mostly regarded as cannon fodder. But in Resident Evil Requiem, Capcom is aiming to put a fresh twist on its rank-and-file zombies, transforming them into an unpredictable menace that you'll have to approach with caution. Speaking to GameSpot, Resident Evil Requiem director Koshi Nakanishi said that this new breed of infected--who recently succumbed to their viral...
With Resident Evil's ninth mainline entry, Capcom finds itself at something of a crossroads. In recent years, Resident Evil games have flitted between nail-biting horror and enjoyably explosive thrills, leaving fans split between wanting the all-out action of Resident Evil 4 and VII's more unsettling brand of survival horror.
When I played Requiem last year, it seemed pretty clear to me which spooky path players were being led down. As junior FBI agent Grace Ashcroft was relentlessly...

While Xbox games landing on competing platforms is becoming a regular and unsurprising phenomenon, the actual release dates for these other versions aren't so consistent. Speaking in an interview, Xbox Game Studios head Craig Duncan chalked these variabilities up to development resources.

When Spellcasters Chronicles was first announced last October, Quantic Dream said that it would still maintain...
