If Microsoft’s acquisition of Bethesda last year put the cat among the pigeons, the breaking news from this week saw that cat dragging a turkey to the floor. Activision Blizzard is set to become a part of Xbox, and it’s a news story that has fed countless news stories, interviews and speculative pieces over the past week.

Bu Hafta Haberlerde

Let’s dive in with all of the stories surrounding Activision Blizzard this past week. There’s been a lot:

İncelemedeki Oyunlar ve Öne Çıkan Makaleler

Through the rest of our coverage, we had the first meaningful crop of game releases this week.

You might also consider my early impressions of Gökkuşağı Altı Ekstraksiyonu a review in progress, though the baton will be passing on to Jim for the scored review coming next week.

Not wanting to be left out, I got my rampant speculation hat on to talk through why Microsoft has decided to splash such a huge amount of cash on Activision Blizzard and what the acquisition likely means for gamers. Will COD be going exclusive in a few years? Will Kotick be on the way out? What’s going to happen with Blizzard?

Over on the preview side of things, I had a rather busy week, checking out the stylish new twist on OlliOlli Dünya. I also delivered not one, but two previews for Total War Warhammer 3, diving into the main campaigns for both the newly announced Kaos İblisleri ve Büyük Cathay hizip.

Meanwhile, Dom caught up with the Frontier team to talk Planet Zoo and Sam joined us this week to see if Ring Fit Adventure could help them run a fast 5K.

Finally, we had Ne Oynadık, featuring Windjammers 2, Horizon Zero Dawn and Rainbow Six Extraction.
