I love this, mostly. Five studios forming Nova Assembly. Not a merger, more like a shared backbone.
Centralized ops, decentralized studios. Scale without losing identity.
Close to how we think at Artchop. Modular, not monolithic.

XLGAMES is pulling “The Cube: Save Us” offline just months after launch. Didn’t even get to play it.
Didn’t hit traction fast enough. That’s enough now.
Tough outcome for the team.
“Build it and they will come” doesn’t hold anymore.

XP Signal 4/6/26
New XP Signal is out.
A media conglomerate asked what a gaming division was worth. The answer was zero. Not because the games were bad.
What happens when the people pricing your industry have never shipped a game?

PS5 prices keep climbing like they’re trying to escape Earth’s gravity, meanwhile PSVR2 has been untouched because even Sony knows nobody cares about that paperweight. #PlayStation #PS5 #PSVR2 #Sony #ConsoleGaming #GamingNews #GameIndustry #PriceHike #ModernGaming #GamerLife
Here’s a first for me. I’m speaking at the Game Publishing, Marketing & Community summit this September in London!

Behaviour picked up The Fun Pimps.
Clear shift: acquire over build.
More predictable, less risk.
But good teams and ideas are getting stuck waiting for a greenlight.

I enjoyed my time on the @indiearenabooth.de jury so much last year that I’ve signed up for a second round!
I’ve been liking a lot of what I’ve tried so far and look forward to seeing all the indie games and developers at the full Indie Arena Booth this Gamescom!

Sony shuttered Dark Outlaw Games less than a year in. Project gone.
Pedigree team. Cancelled.
The window to prove is getting shorter, even with first-party backing.
Studios are cutting earlier.
Partners need to show value fast, in-engine.

New XP Signal is out.
A platform owner cut 20%, a studio lasted one year, and a successful console hit a demand wall. The margin just vanished.
Where did the margin get tighter in your corner of the industry?
