Take-Two Interactive, the parent company for video game developers like Rockstar and 2K Games, announced that while the coming year will be light in terms of releases, it is planning to release 93 titles over the next five years, including games from across its many studios. In a call with investors today to discuss its Q4 2020 results, Take-Two shared a bit about its “strongest pipeline in its history.” While the company specifically said that the coming fiscal year, which ends in March 2021, will be “light” in terms of new games, the company is planning a massive wave of titles starting in fiscal 2022. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2018/11/09/what-gta-6-can-learn-from-red-dead-2"] Industry analyst Daniel Ahmad broke down the 93 titles as 63 “core experiences,” 17 “mid core games,” and 12 “casual/arcade” titles. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-ign-rockstar-game-review-ever&captions=true"] IGN learned from an anonymous source close to Rockstar Games that the next game in the Grand Theft Auto series, most likely GTA 6, is currently in early development. Take-Two announced its planned 93 titles range from casual mobile games to triple-A releases, but did not mention if the next GTA game was part of the line-up. Though five years is a wide window. In other Take-Two news, Grand Theft Auto 5 has sold 130 million units. GTA 5 is a staggering sales success and despite being on sale for the past 7 years, continues to sell thanks to the popularity of GTA Online. GTA 5 was recently offered as the Epic Games Store’s free game and it temporarily took the store offline due to demand. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Matt Kim is a reporter for IGN.

Kerbal Space Program 2 has been delayed due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The Kerbal Space Program 2 development team put out a tweet on May 20 telling fans that the game has been delayed as a result of COVID-19 and will instead launch in fall 2021. The game was set to be released sometime in Take-Two Interactive's 2021 fiscal year, placing it between April 2020 and March 2021. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=kerbal-space-program-2-announcement-trailer-gallery&captions=true"] "As you all know, we've been working hard to make the best and most authentic KSP sequel possible," the developer's announcement reads. "This is an ambitious goal. We are making a big, expansive game loaded with new features, but doing so will take longer than we previously anticipated. With everything going on in the world today due to the COVID-19 outbreak, we're facing many unique challenges that require more time to safely iterate, create, test, and make KSP2 as great as it can be." This delay comes just a few months after Take-Two Interactive-owned publisher Private Division announced that the development of Kerbal Space Program 2 had been moved from previous developer Star Theory Games to a newly-formed KSP2-dedicated studio. Take-Two acquired KSP in 2017 and announced a sequel, at the time developed by Star Theory, during Gamescom 2019. The announcement goes on to say that despite the delay, fans can continue to expect updates in the form of feature videos, developer blogs, and more leading up to the game's launch in Fall 2021. The game was originally announced to be coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The announcement did not mention any change of plans in that regard. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/03/27/ps5-xbox-series-x-no-delay-concerns-yet-next-gen-console-watch"] KSP2 joins a continually-growing list of games delayed as a result of COVID-19. Guilty Gear Strive was delayed to 2021 just last week. Even tabletop games like Cyberpunk Red have been delayed. While games are getting delayed, head of Xbox Phil Spencer said Microsoft isn't expecting a delay for the Xbox Series X. Sony said the PS5 will not be delayed either. Here are some ways to help others and stay safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Wesley LeBlanc is a freelance news writer and game maker for IGN.

Otherside Entertainment has announced that Tencent will take over the System Shock franchise from the Boston games studio. In a short message to followers on Twitter, Otherside announced that “Tencent will be taking the [System Shock] franchise forward.” The studio added in a follow-up, “As a smaller Indie studio, it had been challenging for us to carry the project on our own. We believe Tencent’s deep capabilities and expertise as a leading game company will bring the franchise to new heights.” [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=18-games-that-seemingly-vanished&captions=true"] Otherside Entertainment acquired the license to develop System Shock 3 from Night Dive Studios. However, development on the sequel stalled after reports that the studio fell behind on the development of the project. Based on the tweets it doesn’t appear as though OtherSide will be involved with System Shock going forward. Night Dive Studios, who still holds the rights to the System Shock IP, is working on a remake of the first game independently. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/03/19/system-shock-3-in-engine-teaser"] Tencent is one of China’s largest video game corporations and primarily focuses on mobile games. The studio has shown interest in expanding to triple-A development after reports that the company hired Kojima Productions co-founder Ken-Ichiro Imaizumi and Halo 4 lead designer Scott Warner. IGN has reached out to Tencent for a statement. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Matt Kim is a reporter for IGN.

Devolver Digital has announced that Serious Sam 4 will launch on Steam and Google Stadia this August. Along with the announcement, Devolver dropped a new trailer for the title. Serious Sam 4 is a prequel to the rest of the series, and the trailer gives us a good look at the updated enemy design in the game. You can check out the new trailer here: [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/05/20/serious-sam-4-planet-badass-cinematic-trailer"] On the Serious Sam Steam page, Devolver Digital has posted a number of other Serious Sam 4 videos, including looks at battles, enemies, weapons, music, and the legion system, which allows thousands of enemies to exist on the battlefield. Additionally, the entire Serious Sam main series is currently on sale. Serious Sam 4 will also include a co-op mode, where up to four players can tackle primary campaign missions and side quests together. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=serious-sam-4-screenshots&captions=true"] Croteam and Devolver Digital have been silent about Serious Sam 4 for quite some time. Serious Sam 4 was officially announced in April 2018, and besides a brief appearance at E3 2018, there's been no new information since the game's announcement.

After months and even years of campaigning by fans, stars, and Zack Snyder himself, the director of Man of Steel confirmed the "Snyder Cut" of Justice League will officially be released on HBO Max. Zack Snyder confirmed the cut's release for HBO Max in 2021 following a livestream watch-along of Man of Steel, which Superman himself Henry Cavill joined in at the stream's end to discuss. Warner Bros. confirmed the cut's release following the frequent campaigning of fans over recent years to #ReleasetheSnyderCut. [caption id="attachment_2354639" align="alignnone" width="720"] Snyder's Justice League director's cut will hit HBO Max[/caption] "I want to thank HBO Max and Warner Brothers for this brave gesture of supporting artists and allowing their true visions to be realized. Also a special thank you to all of those involved in the SnyderCut movement for making this a reality,” Snyder said in a statement alongside the announcement. According to THR, it's still unclear if the Snyder Cut will be released in episodic chapters or as a full director's cut, but the Snyders are reportedly currently "reassembling much of their original postproduction crew to score, cut, add new and finish old visual effects, and, yes, maybe bring back many of the actors to record additional dialogue." [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-dceu-movie-review-score&captions=true"] HBO did not state a running time or name any specifics about what footage may be changed or altered for Snyder's director's cut of the film, which he stepped down from directing during Justice League production due to a family tragedy. Marvel's The Avengers director Joss Whedon stepped in to finish production for the film, which hit theaters in 2017. The version of Justice League that hit theaters was met with largely poor critical reception. Fan outcry for a cut that would have been true to Snyder's original version began almost immediately after the film's release, but we first received word in 2018 that WB wasn't planning to release a Snyder Cut., and following that came word that Henry Cavill would possibly be leaving the role of Superman. Still, fans continued to push for the Snyder Cut's release, with fans in 2019 even flying a banner over San Diego Comic-Con highlighting the campaign to release the cut, with billboards around New York Comic-Con signaling the same that year. [poilib element="poll" parameters="id=4f7e8ff8-1b99-4e59-9e51-55a68d245765"] In November 2019, Aquaman star Jason Momoa claimed to have seen the Snyder Cut, but by the end of 2019, we were still not expecting a Snyder Cut to be released despite the cast's endorsements. There even came word at the time that the, by this point, fabled Snyder Cut was not properly finished, casting doubt on whether it could have been shown to anyone yet. But before 2019 ended, Zack Snyder himself seemingly confirmed the cut existed. The director further increased curiosity, posting photos of Cavill's Superman in a black suit that didn't appear in the film. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2017/11/15/justice-league-review"] With Snyder's teases, fan fervor for the cut's release only grew, and we recently tracked the history of the Snyder Cut ahead of this recent announcement.

A group of Japanese and North American publishers will hold a New Game+ Expo to showcase 40 games from SEGA, ATLUS, and more. As events like Gamescom move to a fully-digital showcase this year while other video game conference mainstays like E3 have cancelled its 2020 production altogether due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, companies are finding new ways to showcase the games they have coming this year and beyond. Announced May 20, 14 publishers from North America and Japan will join together on June 23 to showcase 40 games. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=confirmed-playstation-5-games&captions=true"] "New Game+ Expo is a grassroots coalition of publishers and developers," New Game+ Expo's Adam Johnson said. "Organizing together for the first time, we hope fans have fun as we take a look at the combined lineup of games for 2020 and beyond." This showcase of games will join the likes of Microsoft's Xbox 20/20 monthly updates, Guerrilla Collective's indie game showcase, Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest, and even IGN's very own Summer of Gaming event. The following publishers will show games during the New Game+ Expo: Acttil, AKSYS Games, Arc System Works America, GungHo America, Idea Factory International, Inti Creates, KOEI TECMO America, Nasume Inc., NIS America, Inc., PLAYISM, Sega of America, SNK Corporation, Spike Chunsoft, Inc., and WayForward. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/04/04/how-coronavirus-is-impacting-the-games-industry"] As to what games or franchises we can expect to see, that information is currently unknown. The New Game+ Expo will stream on Twitch on June 23 at 8 a.m. PT/11 a.m. ET with trailers from the stream hitting YouTube shortly after. Other gaming events are going the digital route too such as the Game Developers Conference, which shifted to an all-digital summer event in August.

Naughty Dog has discussed The Last of Us Part 2's ambitious scope for sometime now, but a new look at the game has teased that the adventure is so big, players may not experience some story and gameplay elements on a single playthrough. In the latest episode of PlayStation's multi-part look at The Last of Us Part II, which you can watch below, members of the development team discuss how Naughty Dog's biggest game ever has scripted sequences players may miss. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/05/20/the-last-of-us-part-ii-inside-the-gameplay-video"] "In this game we've gone so far in making the level design open that there are actually entire story moments, entire combat encounters, full scripted sequences that you may completely miss," The Last of Us part 2 Co-Director Anthony Newman said in the latest look at the sequel. "And there are things that we feel like, even though a portion of our player base may never see these things, the fact that when you do encounter them, you feel like you discovered them, it lends them this charm and this magic I think is unique to games that this happened to me, because of what I did and the place I explored to." Director Neil Druckmann previously spoke to IGN about the scope of The Last of Us Part II's world, saying "Depending where you are with the story, we might open things up significantly and say, ‘Here are some optional things you can go explore, some side stories, or you can go directly next to where you’re meant to go,’" but that a big goal for the team was not to simply pad out the experience. "It’s not padded, it has that pacing of the first game," he told us at the time. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=the-last-of-us-part-2-new-screenshots&captions=true"] The latest look at the sequel also offered some more details about the upgrade system. Returning to The Last of Us Part 2 is the ability to modify weapons and upgrade the character's skills. But Newman explained that, to exemplify the idea that the characters, and players, have to live with their choices, you won't be able to upgrade everything in one go. "We put a much stronger emphasis on the importance of the choices you make in the longterm for your character," Newman said. "Through the weapon upgrade system, through the player upgrade system, there aren't enough resources in a single playthrough to fully upgrade your character. The choices that you make, you're going to have to live with. And we wanted to make sure that all the choices that you made had a really noticeable and tangible impact on the way that you play." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/09/28/the-last-of-us-part-2-how-the-world-and-gameplay-have-evolved"] Whether this means any sort of New Game+ mode will be included from the jump or introduced later is not stated, but it sounds like players will have to play through The Last of Us Part 2's journey multiple times to experience the full skill trees. We do at least know plenty about how the sequel will play thanks to our The Last of Us Part 2 hands-on last year, at which time we also learned about how dogs will impact The Last of Us 2's gameplay, how Joel and Ellie's relationship has changed in the sequel, and more. After The Last of Us Part 2's delay earlier this year, Sony announced a new June release date for the Naughty Dog sequel, and shortly after Naughty Dog confirmed The Last of Us 2 had gone gold.

Disney+ has given a release date for the option to watch The Simpsons in the original 4:3 aspect ratio. Starting on May 28, episodes will be watchable in the original 4:3 aspect ratio so that visual jokes no longer get cut off by the widescreen format. When Disney+ launched in 2019, all 30 seasons of The Simpsons were available to stream. However, they were only available in the 16:9 widescreen ratio. This presented problems as the original seasons were aired in a 4:3 format and visual jokes, in particular, were created specifically for that size. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=all-the-must-watch-disney-plus-titles-on-launch-day&captions=true"] Comedian Tristan Cooper tweeted a viral example of how the widescreen aspect ratio cuts off visual gags in The Simpsons that only make sense in its original ratio. Now, Disney+ subscribers will have the option to watch these older episodes with the jokes untouched by the widescreen cut off.

All the classic Simpsons episodes on Disney+ are in cropped widescreen format -- this means you miss out on tons of great visual jokes, like how Duff, Duff Lite and Duff Dry all come from the same tube. pic.twitter.com/cTy9adulFl

Disney+ later announced it would make the 4:3 option available in May but did not announce a release date at the time. Not every episode of The Simpsons will be available in 4:3 but that’s because the series did eventually move to a widescreen format partway through season 20. Disney says the users will have a choice when it comes to changing aspect ratios, so if you prefer watching the older seasons in widescreen you’ll still be able to.

This article is part of a new initiative on IGN where we spend a whole month exploring topics we find interesting in the world of video games (and hope you will, too!). May is Development Month, where we'll tell untold stories from behind the scenes of our favorite games. [poilib element="accentDivider"] In the last few weeks, I’ve begun playing Call of Duty: Warzone almost daily. Social distancing and a committed squad of friends have absolutely contributed to that, but there’s something about its blend of ideas that really works for me. I love how it atomises long rounds into small bursts of action with its Contracts system; how tension and silliness seem to pop up in equal measure; and how it’s slightly upped the time-to-kill for a CoD game, turning many firefights into longer, more tactical affairs while keeping the terrifying gunmetal fanfare of its weaponry intact. But there’s one thing I love more than any of this; it is the tracksuit jacket worn by an Operator called Yegor. Specifically, the pink one.Every time a round of Warzone begins, you’re treated to a short clip of your squad lining up at the back of a paratrooper plane’s hatch and, if the right version of Yegor’s there (i.e. one where he bothered putting on a shirt), you’ll see something magical. His seemingly humdrum tracksuit top is positively alive with wind-caused ripples, sunlight bouncing off of its slick surface, as his knock-off Vladimir Putin face stares down with steely determination at the battlefield below. I mention the pink tracksuit in particular because I think you see more of the effect in action than on any other bit of clobber in his wardrobe. It looks really good, to the point where I began pointing it out every time my squad started a new round, and became quietly obsessed with not just how realistic it was, but how needless an addition it seemed to be. For a single miniature cutscene in a Battle Royale game – where you often barely have time to register an enemy’s presence, never mind their choice of athleticwear – it wasn’t just good; it was too good. I started to wonder who had made the decision to make Yegor’s jacket look so good, and then whose job it was to make Yegor’s jacket a reality. I wondered why they wanted to make Yegor’s jacket at all. I began to turn it into a proper noun in my head. This wasn’t Yegor’s jacket, this was Yegor’s Jacket, some kind of hidden message from its developers about the sheer amount of unseen work going into AAA-scale game design in 2020. I started talking about it so much that a friend asked a question I should really have asked to myself: “Why don’t you just email Activision and see if they can get someone to tell you why Yegor’s Jacket is so good?” So I did. “Yegor’s tracksuit,” says Infinity Ward studio art director, Joel Emslie, ignoring my chosen nomenclature, “is a love letter to a character that I created 13 years ago for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. It was for Zakeav’s son, one of the guys that you ride in a car with in the beginning of the game. For some reason tracksuits were big that year.” Charmingly unruffled by how stupid an interview request this is, Emslie finishes his reminiscence with a phrase that sounds almost philosophical – and that I, as the world’s biggest Yegor’s Jacket fan, very much appreciate: “That was then, Yegor is now.” Yegor is now, in as much as he’s emblematic of how much game developers are wringing out of current-gen console hardware in the tail end of its life. Can you imagine a virtual jacket that looked like this in 2014? I absolutely cannot. I can’t outright prove this, but I swear that the moment Yegor’s Jacket appears on my screen in all its polyester splendour, it’s always the exact moment that my otherwise unworried PS4 Pro decides to start screaming. There might be a reason for that: “When it comes to this tracksuit,” explains Emslie, “it uses cutting edge in-game physically based materials to render the fabrics to the highest quality we can deliver.” When I ask him if Warzone features the most realistic clothing yet seen in a game, he gives a more diplomatic response: “It is by far the most realistic clothing in a game that I have ever been a part of.” [poilib element="quoteBox" parameters="excerpt=The%20work%20is%20totally%20fulfilling%20%E2%80%93%20even%20if%20it%E2%80%99s%20creating%20the%20perfect%20dirty%20boot."] Yegor’s Jacket is, by itself, a collaboration between artists, lighting designers, animators and more – and that’s a single part of a wider whole. Once I noticed how good that looked, I began to realise how good clothing looked across the board in Warzone (and the wider Call of Duty: Modern Warfare package): Ghillie suits flap in the rush of an open-topped ATV, heavy weaponry jingles against buckles on the backs of crouching operators, Zane’s improbable cape billows as he leaps off a building in search of another kill. Which begs the question – why is any of this in there at all? It seems a monumental amount of work for something relatively few players will actively notice, and even fewer will become obsessed by to the point of watching videos for glimpses of a single jacket that they can put in an article about said jacket. The answer, for Emslie, is to create an experience that feels more whole. “Early in development for Modern Warfare & Warzone, we challenged ourselves with what could be referred to as a gold diorama. This was a very small sample section of the game to stress test our techniques and some of our early development infrastructure. It included an exterior scene in overcast daylight, a couple of vehicles, and few characters. The scene was set on a hilltop in the Isle of Skye, Scotland and so it made perfect sense that there should be some wind to add visual stimulation to everything in the scene. “This opened the door for some creative solutions to create windblown clothing and props worn by our characters. When we saw how effective the look of all these things together could be, we decided to get as much of that into the game as possible. There are so many moments where our characters are riding shotgun on a helicopter or tac-rover. It really adds a sense of reality to the characters and what they wear.” Essentially, it lends an almost invisible verisimillitude, something your brain registers as feeling real, without it necessarily having to notice it directly. The more work put into making the stuff that grounds you in the game world, the more you’re likely to feel immersed by it all. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/03/23/call-of-duty-warzone-review"] The process for getting to that point is pretty fascinating. Like many AAA games, Infinity Ward’s artists have begun 3D scanning real-life objects – after all, if you’re trying to build realistic looking clothing, why not use the real thing? It lifts my heart to know that, somewhere in Los Angeles, there’s a real Yegor’s Jacket sitting in a big cupboard (Activision, I will pay for that, get in touch). “It required us to build out a physical wardrobe collection right next to the model shop,” says Emslie. “It has it all. From full body jumpsuits down to the smallest props like a piece of glint tape on a helmet. This isn’t completely unique, but we not only built out a collection, we processed the clothing and props like a Hollywood prop house would do for a feature film. The entirety of our collection is processed by our artists to make it all look used and lived in.” Those scans come in ‘clean’, with artists asked to dirty them up once they’re in the system, and make them look like they’ve actually been worn. But even that wasn’t quite realistic enough for Emslie and his team, with something about that invented grime giving away its virtual creation. “I can think of a few moments early on where I stopped an artist from painting dirt onto a character and encouraged them to take the boots out for a hike or drag them through a dirt patch outside. If there is a way to get dirt into a pair of gloves or get the perfect patina onto a tactical helmet, we find a way. The result is a very natural look that seats the characters into the environments very convincingly.” It’s fascinating to me to think of quite how much work is being put into these less-noticed elements, and the sheer level of expertise artists are bringing to elements of games that are designed to be somewhat invisible to the player. I ask Emslie how people get into this kind of work – in a way, the business of not being noticed: “I think the people that are most successful at getting into various jobs usually have a healthy curiosity and fascination with the work itself. All of this takes a massive amount of time and effort. The work really needs to hold your interest to a point where you could lose track of time and almost sink into a trance. Anyone can get into a line of work. Staying in the line of work and being successful with something like this means you probably love it.” Seemingly sensing that I’m going to ask if it’s satisfying to know that a piece of work may never be consciously noticed, Emslie adds: “The work is totally fulfilling – even if it’s creating the perfect dirty boot.”But what about when people do notice the work? What about when someone becomes obsessed with a fictional Ukranian just because of his choice of top? “We are creating what I can consider the largest catalog of unique characters I’ve ever been a part of. The most rewarding moments for me are when someone relates to a character in the narrative or makes a connection to an Operator that they feel represents how they want to look in our game.” That’s mission accomplished, I guess – it might not be for reasons other than that his jacket is really fluttery and shiny, but I’m yet to play as any Operator other than Yegor, simply because of his look. I have one more question for Emslie – well, a question and a compliment. Who, specifically, made Yegor’s Jacket, and can I congratulate them? “We are in the middle of our stay at home instructions and it’s been a while since we were all together in the art pit. I can’t remember who exactly crafted that particular jacket, but I will be certain to ask now that you’ve mentioned it and deliver the compliment.” I’ll try too: in case you’re reading this, anonymous Yegor's Jacket Designer, good work. I noticed. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Joe Skrebels is IGN's Executive Editor of News, and he just remembered he wrote a whole article about a game character's sandals once, too.
