so, hasbro's been on a bit of a wild ride with its gaming ambitions lately. after a huge splurge on titles like baldur's gate 3, the company's now scaling back its plans due to a whopping $56m loss. that's a pretty big deal, and it's got a lot of gamers wondering what's going on.



from what i've gathered, hasbro's been reviewing its portfolio and cancelling some projects that weren't quite working out. they've also laid off a bunch of developers, which is always sad to see. but, on the bright side, some of their more promising titles are still in the works. exodus, a sci-fi rpg that's been compared to mass effect, is still on track for a 2027 release, along with warlock: dungeons and dragons. these games are apparently meeting hasbro's new standards for "owned publishing", which means they've got big audience potential and a strong fit with the company's existing franchises.



i'm actually pretty stoked that exodus and warlock are still happening, since they both sound like really cool games. exodus is all about sci-fi rpg action, while warlock is a dungeons and dragons game that expands on one of the most popular classes in the series. both games are scheduled for release on pc, ps5, and xbox series x/s, which is great news for gamers across different platforms. preorders are available at major retailers, so if you're interested, you can already start getting ready.



hasbro's new strategy is all about focusing on its biggest, most successful franchises, like magic: the gathering arena and monopoly go. they're also looking to partner with other companies to create games that have a clear upside and a strong chance of success.Read more: Full article on www.eurogamer.net
