Microids signs deal to produce three new Garfield games

Big Fat Hairy Deal II?

Microids, curiously driven by a passion for old school licenses, has announced that it has signed a deal to produce three — three — new video games based on Jim Davis’ comic book creation, Garfield. The superstar moggy joins Microids’ portfolio of retro IPs that already promised new games based on Asterix, Tintin, and The Smurfs.

“We are thrilled by this new agreement with ViacomCBS Consumer Products!” writes Microids editorial director Alain Milly in a press statement. “Garfield is a well-known and family-friendly intellectual property fitting perfectly our portfolio made of popular franchises for all ages. Following successful collaborations on Garfield: Wild Ride and Garfield Kart Furious Racing, we are incredibly honored to work with ViacomCBS Consumer Products on three new games.”

The new releases will not be the sardonic feline’s first foray into the realm of video games. Even as far back as the 1980s, Garfield was rocking home computers with titles such as Big Fat Hairy Deal and Winter’s Tale. More recently, Garfield was added to Smash-like fighter Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl as the title’s first DLC character. Garfield’s gaming career hasn’t exactly been five-star, but what do you what? He’s a lazy cat living a perpetual existential crisis.

There are no details at all pertaining to Microids’ new Garfield games. Not release windows, platforms, or genre. So maybe we’ll get some mobile games, maybe a lasagna baking sim… it probably won’t be a pachinko machine, we can at least be grateful for that. Whatever the spoils of this new deal, the new games better not drop on a Monday. He hates those, y’see? Even though he doesn’t actually have a job.

微軟預計停止對非活躍的 Xbox 訂閱會員帳號計費

根據與英國競爭與市場管理局 (CMA) 機構的協議,微軟宣布將取消且不再接受休眠/非活躍的 Xbox Live Gold 和 Game Pass 訂閱。目前這種情況僅限於英國,因為 CMA 一直在調查所有主要遊戲平台(包括 Sony 和任天堂系統)訂閱服務背後的自動續訂過程,微軟是第一家也是目前唯一改變其政策的公司。新流程將使微軟接觸至少一年未使用訂閱服務的人,並將通知這些用戶有關退出政策的消息。如果接下來一年的活動繼續為零,則訂閱將自動取消。此外,微軟也預計往後將針對自動刷新政策提供更好的資訊,以及處理自動續訂退款的方法。你可以到由CMA釋出的新聞稿查看更多。雖然這暫時是英國獨有的協定,但微軟發言人確實告訴The Verge,「對非活躍中訂閱服務的更動最初將在英國推出,並將很快在全球範圍內跟進」,這意味著我們可能會看到這項政策在更多國家/地區實施。
