In the past, IWO (Intel World Open) tried a similar esports event format with Psyonix’s title in 2019. The event clashed several countries against each other in the tournament and even got the finale planned in a LAN at the 2020 Summer Olympics. However, due to the pandemic in 2020, the event couldn’t mortalize itself in the esports industry.

Details On Rocket League World Cup

Although this event is a first of it’s kind, there has been much information revealed regarding the championship. From what we can tell, this is going to be a whole new experience for the players and fans alike. There is going to be a new format, new teams, and more events like this coming later this year.

A 30-second video was posted on X, Confirming that a total of 16 different countries will be participating in this event. All 16 countries will be selected based on the representatives they send, which will be done in a previous RLCS event. Taking a wild guess, the countries that could make it to the event’s rosters at the moment’s notice are the USA, Canada, France, Australia, Brazil, and the UK.

Although only 12 countries participated in the RLCS event, and only 7 of those countries sent 3 more players, there is still much opportunity for players from other countries.

FIFAE X The Rocket League

FIFAe has been organizing tournaments for FIFA for a long time, and adding Rocket League to the list seems only a natural step. A statement from Cristian Volk, Director of eFootball and gaming at FIFA, says that this World Cup featuring Rocket League marks a new era for FIFAe. Volk also mentioned that this event is going to provide a groundbreaking platform for FIFA’s member association to compete in the most relevant esports titles.

Interestingly enough, the statements on FIFA’s official website seem to clear the fact that they are also giving chances to players who aren’t affiliated with pro organizations. Not only that, FIFA is encouraging players to sign up on FIFA.gg to get details on participating from different countries.

Xbox has suddenly closed four of its Bethesda studios, including Redfall’s developer Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks, earlier this week. The other two studios were Alpha Dog Games, developer of Mighty Doom, and Bethesda support team Roundhouse Games. These teams released a closure to their shutdown, while Xbox remained silent on the whole topic.

Four days later, in a Bloomberg interview, host Dina Bass asked Xbox president Sarah Bond about the closure. Sarah stated her desire to keep the Xbox business healthy in the long run, even if it requires her to make hard decisions.

Sarah also mentioned that they haven’t closed these studios out of spite or without considering all the options. She stated that there are many great things coming out later this year as well. But their main goal right now is to support the people to cope with this hard transition.

About Tango Gamework’s Closure

Dina Bass then asked Sarah about the closure of Tango Gameworks after the Hi-Fi rush, which was a big success. To the Question Sarah didn’t answer straightforwardly. Sarah answered about her love for the games in their pure art form and how she likes them to be perfect. She mentioned that when it’s about making big decisions, they look at each game team’s performance and other factors.

While Dina addressed these closures, there isn’t much clarity from one of the biggest companies in the gaming industry. Neither Xbox, nor Microsoft has cleared about their huge transitional decisions and layoffs.

Now, Garen is all set to launch the game with full localization to meet the preferences of Indian gamers.

Games are costlier and game companies know it, that’s why game publishers are coming out with their own subscriptions plans. PlayStation and Xbox already launched their own game pass where you can play a lot of games by paying a few bucks.

Ubisoft also launched their own game pass subscription in December, 2019. After 4 years, Ubisoft is renaming their first subscription Ubisoft plus to Ubisoft Plus Premium, they also added a new subscription called Ubisoft Plus Classics. 

What are the Differences Between Ubisoft Plus Classics and Ubisoft Plus Premium?

The two subscription plans are very different from each other. In Ubisoft Plus Premium you would get access to 100+ Ubisoft games on PC. You would be able to play those games only on PC, with some selected games available to play on Xbox. 

Aside from getting access to hundreds of games, you would get early access to latest games such as “Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown.” A lot of users are playing the new Prince of Persia games early due to the Ubisoft Plus Premium. You have to just pay $17.99 a month which is less than buying a game.

Ubisoft Plus Classics isn’t a tone down version of Ubisoft Plus Premium. It costs less than the Ubisoft Plus Premium but it’s not as good as the Premium. If you are a new gamer who just wants to explore Ubisoft’s classic and popular games such as “Far Cry 6”, “Watch Dogs: Legion”, and many more you can try this subscription. 

You would get access to 50+ iconic games of Ubisoft in the subscription. Ubisoft Plus Classics would cost you $7.99 a month. It’s a good subscription if you want to try some of Ubisoft’s best games. If you want to buy Far Cry 6 it would cost you around $60 Dollars, which is much higher than the $8 Dollar monthly subscription of Ubisoft Plus Classics.

These subscription plans are very good for new gamers. Nowadays, games are sold at very high prices, and buying these Subscriptions is better than buying a whole game. If you are a new gamer, then just go for subscriptions rather than buying a whole game.
