🎮 A Ubisoft director predicted gamers will become more comfortable not owning games as subscriptions like Uplay+ grow, sparking debate. We analyze shifting attitudes around ownership versus access as business models keep evolving.

🐧 Reviews dropped for quirky monster tamer Palworld ahead of its launch on Xbox Game Pass. Reactions are mixed so far on its Pokemon-with-guns premise that could appeal to niche audiences if content depth supports the wacky concept.
