I forgot to do the news yesterday, I’m sorry. Here’s some news from today AND yesterday.
- Call of Cthulhu Release Date Announced
- Roblox is Addressing the Cyber Sexual Harassment
- No Man’s Sky’s Next Update
Call of Cthulhu Release Date
According to a tweet by developer Focus Home Interactive, the upcoming Call of Cthulhu game will be releasing on PS4, Xbox One and PC on October 30. Notice how I didn’t say the date in the title anywhere? That’s called clickbait, son. I’m quite excited about this game, Lovecraftian madness and all that is totally my bag.
Roblox Harassment Problems
Not long ago, there was an instance where a seven-year-old girl was sexually harassed online during a game of Roblox. This involved a number of other players with crafted genitals surrounding the girl. The mother of the girl had gone online to let mothers know about the dangers of this game. In an effort to save face, the Roblox company has issued a statement. They’ve perma-banned the offending party, and assure parents that “our work on safety is never-ending and we are committed to ensuring that one individual does not get in the way of the millions of children who come to Roblox to play, create, and imagine.”
No Man’s Sky Update
That’s right boys and girls, there’s another major update for the infamous universe sandbox game. called “Next” this update includes fleet controls, improved visual on both sky and land, base building anywhere, third-person perspective, and.. wait for it, MULTIPLAYER! You can finally play and interact with friends and other players. I’m actually kind of excited for this. You can watch the announcement trailer here.
Thanks for reading. Tune in tomorrow for another news post about the world of video games. Otherwise, have a great day!
