Ubisoft enters subscription battleground with Uplay Plus

June 11th, 2019, 21:16 Posted By: wraggster

Ubisoft has joined EA, Xbox and PlayStation in offering its own standalone subscription service.
Uplay Plus will allow gamers to access more than 100 Ubisoft PC games. It will cost $14.99/€14.99 a month and be available from September 3, 2019 in the US and, "most of Europe."
The subscription service will be accessible to gamers on PC and also via Google Stadia (from 2020). Ubisoft's vice president of platform and product management Brenda Panagrossi told GamesIndustry.biz that the firm would like to see the service on other platforms, too, although it has nothing to announce at the moment.
The games available in the servicen will include all upcoming Ubisoft games. Indeed, Panagrossi was clear that, "it's a growing, not rotating, library of games." Watch Dogs Legion and Ghost Recon Breakpoint will be on the service from the moment they're available, and it will be the 'premium' versions of these games. It means that subscribers will get full access to digital extras and any betas that may be running.

"We have always said that if our games are going to be in a subscription, it is going to be our own subscription"

This is alongside legacy titles like Rayman Legends, Beyond Good and Evil, the Assassin's Creed games, Far Cry, Rainbow Six, Uno, Anno, The Settlers, and more.
Ubisoft feels it has a strong opportunity in the subscription space because of the number of studios it operates and the strength of its catalogue of games.
"Ubisoft has the largest creative force in the games industry," Panagrossi says. "We release AAA games on a regular basis, and we have a huge back catalogue of games. We have the teams, the worlds and the platforms in order to enrich players lives."
EA's rival Origin Access service also includes third-party games from other studios. Panagrossi again had nothing to announce, but said it was, "obviously interesting." She also added that the firm is looking into offering a family account option, where multiple users can access UPlay Plus.
During our brief chat, we discussed the number of subscription offers being made available to gamers, and Panagrossi was unconcerned.

Google Stadia's paid subscription service launches in November

June 10th, 2019, 21:15 Posted By: wraggster

Today, Google announced further details about its upcoming streaming service Google Stadia, which was revealed as a subscription service (either paid or free) with the paid version launching this November.
The paid version, Stadia Pro, is the only way to get 4K, 60fps, HDR streaming from the service and will cost $9.99 (£8.99, $11.99 CAD, or €9.99) per month. Though subscribers will still have to purchase games at full price to play and own them, Pro members will receive discounts on games not available for users of the free service, as well as occasional free games beginning with Destiny 2 and its new Shadowkeep expansion. Games received for free will remain in the user's library as long as they are Pro members, will be removed if their subscription lapses, but will return if the subscription is renewed.
Stadia Base will launch after Stada Pro sometime in 2020 and will be the free version of the service, with the caveat that games played on Base will get up to 1080p and 60fps, but not 4K HDR. As with Pro, users will purchase games at full price, but Base users will not receive occasional free games.
In addition, a Founder's Edition of Stadia will go up for pre-order today for $129.99. It includes a limited-edition Stadia controller, a ChromeCast Ultra, a three-month subscription to Stadia Pro, and an additional three-month Pro subscription to be given to a friend.
Stadia controllers will be sold individually for $69, but are not required to play games on the service. Mouse and keyboard, as well as a number of other controller types will be supported.

Blizzard reportedly cancels StarCraft FPS to focus on Overwatch, Diablo

June 10th, 2019, 21:14 Posted By: wraggster

Blizzard has reportedly canceled two projects, including a StarCraft FPS, and poured those resources into upcoming major entries in the Diablo and Overwatch franchises.
A Kotaku report says that the StarCraft FPS, codenamed "Ares," was meant to be "like Battlefield in the StarCraft universe." The project was canceled after two years, with one source saying it had been "looking quite good" and another describing its cancellation as a "massive shock."
A second game, an unannounced mobile title, was also canceled at the same time.
According to the report, no one was laid off in the wake of these cancellations and employees were moved to other projects instead. Many were allocated to the Overwatch and Diablo teams, which may both be working on new entries in their respective franchises for announcement at BlizzCon later this year.
Blizzard shared the following comment on the cancellations with Kotaku:
"We don't generally comment on unannounced projects but we will say the following:

Bethesda unveils Orion game streaming tech

June 10th, 2019, 20:57 Posted By: wraggster

Bethesda is getting into on-demand streaming, but it's coming at the business from a new angle.
In a pre-E3 briefing, the company hosts us along with journalists from two other outlets at its Rockville, Maryland headquarters to show off Orion, a new technology it says will allow developers to make their games perform better through on-demand streaming no matter the service provider.
Orion is essentially a collection of software techniques that Bethesda is putting together in a unified software development kit. The company says that by incorporating them into any game engine, developers can significantly reduce a title's latency, bandwidth requirements, and required cloud computing power in a streaming environment. Orion is the product of id Software's id Tech team in Dallas and Frankfurt, and Bethesda director of publishing operations James Altman says the group has been working on streaming for years.
Altman says there are two primary challenges for on-demand game streaming: latency and computing power.
To date, on-demand streaming companies have been addressing the latency issue as a hardware problem, he says, attempting to "brute force" the solution by building out infrastructure to reduce customers' distance to cloud servers (and thus cut down on latency) or building optimized video encoding and compression into the hardware to reduce bandwidth required.
The problem, according to Altman, is that these sort of efforts to improve the streaming experience only begin after the game running on a remote server has already rendered any given frame.
"We believed we could achieve significant savings and significant improvements and enhancements to the player experience by starting our optimizations at the very earliest literal possible point, which is on the game engine level," Altman says.

"Big exclusive games win the day, and Stadia does not have any"

June 10th, 2019, 20:44 Posted By: wraggster

Streaming was always likely to be a major theme of E3, and so it has proved. Microsoft announced the first public demonstration of Project xCloud at its press briefing yesterday, while Bethesda announced an SDK that will help reduce latency and generally optimise the performance of any streaming service.
One company got the ball rolling early, however: Google, which promised to reveal more details of its Stadia streaming platform this summer when it was first unveiled at GDC. Many interpreted the summer to mean E3, but instead it elected to get ahead of the crowd and show its hand the week before.
Stadia will launch first as a premium subscription service in November, Google revealed last Thursday, with a free tier following in 2020. The premium service, Stadia Pro, will offer higher fidelity streams than the free Stadia Base tier, though paying subscribers will still have to purchase the vast majority of games individually. This model wasn't quite what many were expecting -- including several industry analysts, who discussed the details with GamesIndustry.biz.

"Stadia may be considered to be a luxury that existing console and PC gamers are willing to forgo, at least for the time being"
Michael Pachter

Piers Harding-Rolls, research and analysis director for games at IHS Markit, acknowledged the logic in having both a free and a premium tier. The former, Harding-Rolls said in a report, would be invaluable, "as a user acquisition channel for those trying out demos or trailing content via promotional links across YouTube and other sites." Stadia Base will also open up monetisation opportunities through business-to-business marketing, he added.
"It is not a surprise that Google is delaying launch of this free tier until 2020," Harding Rolls said, "as it gives the company the best shot of maintaining service quality as it scales its users."
Opinions are split on whether Google's decision to launch a premium subscription service first will prove to be correct. David Cole, founder and CEO of DFC Intelligence, described a monthly subscription for a service like Google Stadia as, "a very tough sale."
"I thought they would have gone in reverse and started with a free service and then looked to charge," Cole said. "The premium is somewhat baffling."
Cole continued: "Five years ago I said Google was the biggest threat to upset the traditional game industry. Stadia and Google as a concept looked like it could have a major impact. Now it is like the end of The Wizard of Oz. This is just another of many such services we have seen over the years; nothing special, and Google does not seem to be just dipping its toe in the game market."

Google caused a stir when it first announced Stadia, but its launch strategy may not appeal to the gamers it appears to be targeting
Lewis Ward, research director at IDC, noted the similarity between what Google is proposing with Stadia Pro, and the earliest iteration of Sony's PlayStation Now service. When PS Now first launched, Ward said, it employed a rental model, which charged users between $8 and $15 to rent a game for 90 days. The value this presented was rightly questioned, and Sony eventually shifted entirely to a subscription model that exchanged access to a catalogue of games for a single fee.
"My point is that it appears Google is going back to where PS Now started in many ways, and is likely to trend in the direction of PS Now over time from a business model perspective," Ward continued. "A subscription plan is the way to go long-term.

FS-UAE v2.9.12 dev

June 3rd, 2019, 21:59 Posted By: wraggster

FS-UAE v2.9.12 dev is released. fs-uae is a multi-platform Amiga emulator based on UAE/WinUAE, with a focus on emulating floppy-disk and CD-ROM based games. An important feature of the emulator is that it is fully controllable with a gamepad from your couch, with an on-screen GUI, which means that you can easily swap floppies and load save states with your gamepad. fs-uae is well suited to be started from an emulator frontend running on a HTPC, for instance.

The emulator has less configuration options than other UAE variants, but rather focuses on default settings which just works. For example, if you are running fs-uae in Amiga 500 mode, you cannot turn off cycle-exact mode.

FS-UAE Changelog:
A new development version has been released. Changes in FS-UAE 2.9.12dev:
Change default for bezel option to 0 (off).

Changes in FS-UAE Launcher 2.9.12dev:
Fixed recently introduced bug when downloading files via cache.

DOSBox-X v0.82.19 (2019/05/31)

June 3rd, 2019, 21:53 Posted By: wraggster

DOSBox-X v0.82.19 (2019/05/31) is released. DOSBox-x is a branch of DOSBox. DOSBox emulates an Intel x86 PC, complete with sound, graphics, mouse, joystick, modem, etc., necessary for running many old MS-DOS games that simply cannot be run on modern PCs and operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista, Linux and FreeBSD.

DOSBox-X Changelog:
Prefetch core fixed up, made more aggressive, and string
instructions (REP MOVSW) cause more prefetch. "Stereotype"
demoscene production can run again.
DOSBox Integration device now allows ISA DMA read/write
injection.
8237 DMA emulation now supports PC-98 "auto bank increment"
functions, which automatically increments the DMA page number
on DMA wraparound. Sim City 2000 needs this to play it's
digitized sound effects properly.
8237 DMA emulation now enforces read/write mode provided by
guest. If the DMA is configured for reading from system
memory, then attempts to WRITE to memory via DMA must fail.
Just like real hardware.
8237 DMA block transfer cleanup, de-duplication.
8237 DMA block cleanup allows implementation of 8/16-bit DMA,
forwards and backwards.
PC-98 keyboard corrections (not yet verified to be accurate
to hardware though) to solve problems where holding a key
while running a program that is slow to respond to input
can overrun the buffer and fail to handle additional input.
VGA BIOS size changed to 0x4000 (16KB), because 0x3800
is not liked by Windows 3.0.
Font vector is now INT 44h for PCjr and Tandy emulation,
INT 43h otherwise as documented in the RBIL.
Graph key (PC-98 mode) no longer registers as keyboard
input to INT 18h. EDIT.COM's menu is now usable.
PC-98 INT 18h AH=02h fixed to return the correct keyboard
status byte as documented
Local directory filesystem support now applies timestamp
before closing the file handle, which should help with
timestamps even if the filename is not directly valid
on the host operating system or filesystem.
DOSBox Integration Device moved to I/O port DB28h-DB2Bh
in PC-98 mode to avoid conflicts with DMA controller
registers.
DMA controller is now completely disabled in IBM PCjr mode
(machine=pcjr) to match real hardware.
COPY command now copies file date/time as well.
INT 2Fh AX=1600h no longer logs an error as unimplemented.
(Allofich)
COPY.EXE removed, so that the built-in COPY command can work.
PC98UTIL fixed to re-enable the text layer after the BIOS call
for /24khz and /31khz options.
PC-98 INT 18h AH=30h now allows setting the 480-line mode.
(PC-98) Port 6Ah command 40h/41h, CRT vs Plasma/LCD mode,
added.
PC98UTIL.COM now updates the menu item for PC-98 GDC clock
speed when changing GDC clock speed.
Added to PC98UTIL.COM the /24khz and /31khz switches to change
hsync rate.
Updated PC-98 graphics plane emulation to more properly
handle the 5MHz GDC mode, and the IM bit in the GDC parameter
RAM.
INT 18h AH=30h and AH=42h mode set fixed to update CPU and
display pages correctly.
INT 18h AH=30h (PC-98 mode) now permits graphics layer changes.
INT 18h AH=30h (PC-98 mode) now permits changing hsync rate.
INT 18h AH=31h (PC-98 mode) now uses BIOS data area to
return hsync rate (24KHz vs 31KHz)
INT 18h AH=42h (PC-98 mode) now uses BIOS data area to
determine 5MHz GDC instead of internal state to better emulate
actual hardware behavior.
PC-98 text console output now fills both cells of doublewide
characters on the text layer.
PC-98 port 6Ah now handles command 82h/83h and 84h/85h which
allow the guest to reprogram the GDC clock frequency (2.5MHz
or 5MHz). This is necessary to handle strange Windows 3.1
behavior where entering a DOS program fullscreen causes
Windows 3.1 to reprogram your GDC to run at 5MHz regardless of
the BIOS (or dosbox.conf) setting.
PC-98 port 68h now supports command 0Eh/0Fh to enable display.
Integrated commits from mainline (Allofich)
Lower the influence of the aspect table correction
trick when using high scale factors (320x200 => 2000x1200).
Correction done to Hercules video height parameter.
The mapper now uses the wrapper as well
Fix the possible/suggested values for integer
properties.
Do less to update the frequency of an active SB
DMA transfer. Fixes sound in Tempest 2000.
Add missing --disable-fpu-x64 option
Use clock_gettime when available instead of the
obsolete ftime.
Allow CRTC read/write access on all mirror ports for
non-VGA machine types. Fixes Tandy and EGA display in
International Hockey booter.
Handle "copy H*.txt file.txt" correctly
Fix detection of always_inline attribute with MinGW 4.9.2
Introduce mount -pr to mount paths relative to last
loaded configuration file.
Use normal teletype function for non-ANSI output so the
default attribute 7 applies only to graphics modes and
existing attributes are not changed in text modes.
Improve compatibility of internal mouse driver with
respect to video mode changes and hiding the pointer, and
handle font reloading as a kind of mode change. Also fix
unlocked mouse pointer to recognize the full range of
tweaked/fontloaded text modes.
Bring OS2 port up to date.
Ignore/remove single % in batchfiles.
(Fixes B13Demo batchfiles on PC Gamer cover disc 1995-08)
Clear incomplete Sound Blaster DSP command at reset,
fixes Romancing Prince.
Add some more cases to the Alt-Tab detection.
Add alternate font tables and associated loading logic
in video BIOS, allowing correct gaps between "wide"
characters (e.g. m,w,M,W,T,Z,0) in all VGA machine types.
Update all related BIOS memory values and CRTC registers
when loading fonts.
Improve support for MDA emulation in the vgaonly machine
type, as it is the only way the video BIOS can make use
of the 14-line alternate symbols.
Be compatible by setting the INT 43h vector to the first
half of the 8-line font table for standard text modes.
Move VESA mode table and OEM string before font tables
in the video ROM, which is a more compatible ordering.
Add opl3gold option to oplmode setting. With this option
the Adlib Gold music can be selected in Dune. Only music
without effects is supported. FM volume control does work.
Add hardware text mode cursor support.
Rework FCB_ParseName
-- Remove special code for . and .. as it was wrong
-- Continue reading the input string, when the max length
of the field has been reached (123456789.12345 is read and
returned as 12345678.123)
-- Strip spaces before and after reading the separators.
-- The drive is always parsed (if present), it doesn't
depend on the existence of said drive.
-- Fix parsing of .EXE and other extension only names
-- Always clear out current block and record size.
Correct AX and BX, they contain information on the
existence of the drives specified in the FCBs in the
execute block
Rework the parsing of arguments into the FCBs
Use full mask; fixes label search on FAT drives.
Don't write past the terminator in the DTA name field
when setting search results. This is what DOS does, and
writing junk after the terminator was not good in any case.
Fixes file listing in the 16-bit version of Galaxy Player.
Improve rename support for when renaming files (in a
folder) on a drive different from the current one.
Improve internal ANSI support to adapt to currently
displayed columns and rows. Fixes original Infocom
interpreters when using something other than 80x25.
Handle double-quoted values and quoted values in
dosbox.conf files.
Speed up GetHexValue.
Restore 1,2,3,4,5 as run 5,500,1000,5000,10000
instructions.
Change BIOS equipment list to indicate DMA not
supported on PCjr machine type, which fixes PCjr
detection in old versions of Ancient Art of War.
Correct some offsets in the DTA for FCB-based search
results. Fixes DIR listing in COMMAND.COM from MS-DOS
and file info in XTree Gold.
Prevent a multiplication overflow and more accuracy
by using floats for attack rate loop
Set record size to 128 if it is 0 in the FCB when
calling any FCB read/write function
Fixes for acad 10:
Add missing reference counting when the file is
already open when calling FCB_Open, so that acad, which
uses FCBs and normal handles on the same file, works
better.
Remove FCBs being added to the PSP filetable and
rewrite most functions to support this change. This way
acad won't run out of temporary (fcb) files when low on
memory.
More flexible setting of version with "VER" command.
Fix screen clearing when setting mode 0xA on PCjr
machine type.
Fill DTA for FCB search results more like real DOS,
fixing hang in SETUP.EXE and MSDOSD.EXE from Windows V1.01.
Add support for mode 8 row copy/fill. Fixes Tandy
GW-BASIC interpreter SCREEN 3 scrolling/clearing.
Map inactive video memory regions as empty rather than
filled with RAM. Fixes later version of Sargon 3 on color
machine types.
Set color modes (to the extent that they can be) on the
Hercules machine type if the BIOS equipment list is not set
to monochrome. Fixes missing text in Victory Road.
Graphics mode text drawing improvements:
-Font source according to machine type.
-Use compatible method of determining fill attribute for
textmode screen scrolling in teletype function.
Prevent DOS buffered input function from hanging in an
infinite loop when redirected input reads a linefeed or
reaches EOF.
EXEC improvements, mostly for the load-but-do-not-execute
function.
Stop writing uninitialized junk into first shell's command
tail at startup.
Support writing palette register data to dynamic save area
if pointer is non-zero on mode changes. Fixes CV 2.2.
Be more compatible by converting tabs to spaces in the DOS
console device rather than in the video BIOS teletype function.
Make the internal program for loading ROM images a bit
smarter about what it can/will load. Also provide for BASIC
in ROM to support IBM BASIC interpreters.
Correct page count/size for CGA graphics modes. Fixes RS-2
on the CGA machine type.
Raise lower limit of cycles in autodetermine mode to
improve stability.
Fix for 256 color encoding in zmbv.dll codec
Rework ListMidi so it can be more easily added to more
backends.
Implement mixer /listmidi for coremidi.
Increase size of SysEx buffer to support Sierra's Yamaha
FB-01 driver.
Add improved breakpoint handling to the debugger
Rewrite the order of the debug help list so the keys come
last
Clip to boundaries when there are no suggeted values for
Prop_int
Implement an obscure behavior of the VGA DAC. Fixes wrong
colors in Planet Soccer/Football.
Use default attribute behavior of ANSI.SYS in the console
device. Fixes scrolling issues. Anything that wants non-ANSI
behavior may not display as intended with the internal DOS,
same as real DOS when ANSI.SYS is loaded.
Lower default adlib volume with 2.5dB, based on
measurements
Add experimental name support to configmidi for coremidi
Add support for selectig midi devices by name to win32
midi
Make IRQ generation in Write_MCR consistent with
ComputeInterrupts when op2 changes.

the SB16, based on measurements.
Repair a logic error in cycle max calculation
Introduce a random sleep period, which activates after 3
short sleeps in one frame.
Adjustments to cycle ratio computation.
Process repeated reset commands without delay. Fixes MPU
detection in several games. Correct ACK for reset: entirely
absent with dumb setting (mpu401=uart), and also absent when
returning to intelligent mode from UART mode.
Allow for direct changing of 4op chaining without having
to rewrite the algorithm mode.
Enable core inlining by default on configure/make build
system
Limit amount of polls per second a bit on MAC OS X, as it
was quite high otherwise.
Add basic support for INT 13 call 15. Used by Korean
Powerdolls to detect harddrive.
Add ALSA MIDI 0xA0 and improve unhandled message
reporting a bit.
Support rarely used FCB feature: open file with search
mask. Fixes Buckaroo Banzai.
ANSI emulation is activated for the session when an
escape sequence is encountered other than those used by
internal messages. Fixes LucasArts setup programs provided
that ANSI emulation is not activated.
Flag handling for normal core: zero and sign flags for
integer multiply instructions.
Strip spaces properly.
Improve disk serial number DOS functions.
Only add return to buffer if it already contains data,
which fixes extra return in generated autoexec.bat.

#3860 "Use PCJr specific method to clear the video RAM.
Also don't scroll at unspecified video page.
Fixes issues with KQ1 and KQ2."
PEGC emulation will now print a warning if the guest
application or OS attempts to use 256-color planar mode.
PC-98 PEGC 256-color linear framebuffer is not mapped by
default anymore, except when 256-color mode and the enable
bit set, to match real hardware.
PC-98 PEGC 256-color emulation fixed not to respond to
MMIO registers related to 256-color planar mode according
to real hardware behavior. 256-color planar mode support
is planned in the future.
Remove old dynamic x86 core. Dynamic core is exclusively
dynrec now.

- updated (all) made -o also work for --rrom, --r83 and --rjoliet, just like the other rename options (--rdat, --rl and --ru) (by dbjh)
- updated (SNES) improved reliability of GDSF communication for PCs with a parallel port that supports ECP (built-in or PCIe parallel port card). At last. It is essential to correctly specify ecr_offset for this to work (by dbjh; many thanks to Mystic_Merlin for testing)
- updated (SNES) improved --ufosd by adding specific support for 10 and 12 Mbit HiROMs and implementing a generic way to set the SRAM mapping bytes (by dbjh; thanks to Revenant for the information and Trenton_net for testing)
- added (SNES) --xufosd send ROM to Super UFO Pro 8 SD. Be sure to use a tool like Zadig to add libusb-0.1 (libusb-win32) support (by dbjh; thanks to Revenant for the information and Trenton_net and Revenant for testing)
- updated (SNES) added NTSC/PAL fix for Soul Blazer F/G and Super Metroid E (by dbjh; thanks to Mystic_Merlin)
- added (SNES) work-around for using the Game Doctor SF6 protocol for parallel ports that do not support reading from the Control register. It is good enough to at least allow dumping saver data and SRAM. To enable the new functionality assign a value other than 0 to the variable gd6_send_byte_delay. See the FAQ question 55 for details (by dbjh; many thanks to NorQue and Mystic_Merlin for testing)
- updated (SNES) made --gd3 specify a pass-through mapping for LoROM DSP games (by dbjh)
- updated (SNES) added proper recognition of Pro Fighter headers of LoROM DSP games with 2, 8 or 32 kB SRAM (by dbjh)
- updated (SNES) added interpretation of remaining part of GD3 header (DRAM and SRAM mapping) to --dbuh (by dbjh)
- updated (SNES & Genesis) fixed split file detection for formats other than (M)GD and MGH which I broke in 2.1.0 (by dbjh)
- added (all) --split=N split ROM in parts of N Bytes (including possible header). This is a generic file splitting option. Use -s, optionally in combination with --ssize=SIZE to split files for use with a specific console or backup unit (by dbjh)
- added (SNES) support for Super Magicom/SMC IC2 file format. This format is used by several ancient backup units, including the Twin Supercom, Future Supercom Pro.9 and UFO Super Drive PRO 6 HYPER VERSION in order to run HiROM games up to 16 Mbit. Use --ic2 to convert a file to Super Magicom/SMC IC2 format (by dbjh; thanks to Mystic_Merlin for info and testing)
- updated (SNES) fixed bug in --ufo that caused it to produce incorrect headers for games that do not use SRAM (by dbjh; thanks to Mystic_Merlin for feedback and testing)
- updated (SNES) fixed bug in -j for files in UFO format smaller than or equal to 8 Mbit (by dbjh)

Microsoft to launch Xbox Game Pass on PC

June 3rd, 2019, 20:54 Posted By: wraggster

Microsoft will launch a new version of Xbox Game Pass on PC, which will include day-and-date releases of new games from Xbox Game Studios.
In a blog post published today, Xbox head Phil Spencer described the "unique responsibility" Microsoft has, as the creator of Windows, to approach the PC as, "an open, highly customizable platform."
"We've not always lived up to our aspiration of keeping gamers at the center of everything we do when it comes to the experience they've had on Windows," he said.
However, two years on from the launch of Xbox Game Pass on console, Microsoft has recognized a similar opportunity for developers and players on PC.

Twitch adds mandatory two-factor authentication to prevent non-games streams

June 3rd, 2019, 20:52 Posted By: wraggster

Twitch has made two-factor authentication a requirement for all streamers to ensure they don't have their channels taken over by unrelated broadcasts.
The change was announced via Twitter, with Twitch also revealing a temporary freeze on new accounts' ability to stream has been lifted.
VG247 reports the change is primarily motivated by an incident over the past weekend, whereby some users' accounts were taken over and used to broadcast non-games related content.

Support for Telltale's Minecraft: Story Mode will end this month

June 3rd, 2019, 20:50 Posted By: wraggster

Support for Telltale's Minecraft: Story Mode will be withdrawn on June 25, Mojang has announced.
The Swedish company made the announcement, "on behalf of the publisher," referring to Telltale Games, which closed down last year after hitting financial difficulties.
"As you might have heard, its publisher is no longer in business, which unfortunately means that Minecraft: Story Mode will no longer be supported," Mojang said on its official website.
