Julian Gerighty, the creative director and executive producer of Tom Clancy's The Division franchise, has officially resigned from Ubisoft to join Electronic Arts' Battlefield Studios. Massive Entertainment confirmed the news this week, marking the end of Gerighty's extensive tenure at the studio, where he was a key figure shaping the first two Division games and leading the creative direction for Star Wars Outlaws.

While Gerighty recently teased that The Division 3 was “shaping up to be a monster”, his departure means he will no longer be at the helm to see the project through to its completion. Instead, he will transition to a leadership role within EA's Battlefield team, though his specific title has not yet been confirmed. Ubisoft's leadership has moved quickly to reassure fans and investors that the series remains in capable hands. The publisher emphasised that the vision for the franchise remains unchanged despite the loss of its primary creative face. Massive Entertainment's statement on the topic can be found below:

Gerighty himself also shared a message to the community on X, expressing confidence in the franchise's future and noting that it was simply time for “another grand adventure” after over 27 years at the company.

This move comes at a juncture for both gaming giants. Ubisoft has been grappling with a prolonged slump that led to its stock being temporarily halted on Euronext in late 2025. While Assassin's Creed Shadows provided a much-needed commercial boost last year, the group has faced significant layoffs and studio closures as part of a major internal restructuring. On the other side of the industry, EA's Battlefield Studios is still navigating the tragic loss of Vince Zampella, who passed away following a car accident in December 2025. Bringing in a veteran with Gerighty's expertise could be just what EA needs as it looks to expand the Battlefield franchise and fill the leadership gap left by one of the industry's most influential figures.

KitGuru says: Losing Julian Gerighty is a heavy blow for Ubisoft. However, for EA and the Battlefield franchise, this could be a massive win. Gerighty's experience with shooters and large-scale IP management is precisely what EA needs to maintain the momentum of the successful Battlefield 6.

Keychron has expanded its gaming sub-brand, Lemokey, with the launch of the P3 HE, a tenkeyless (TKL) gaming keyboard that pairs magnetic switch technology with a toolless casing. Unlike the Keychron Q-series flagships, which often command a premium, the P3 HE is launching at a slightly lower price. That said, it's still relatively expensive compared to its Chinese counterparts.

Despite the lower cost of $169.99 (versus Keychron's Q-series that can fetch well over $200), the P3 HE (via TechPowerUP) maintains a premium build, featuring a full aluminium case finished with an electrophoretic coating and a toolless disassembly system. This screwless design uses magnetic latches to allow the top case to be removed in seconds for cleaning or internal modifications, a feature currently absent from the more expensive Keychron models.

Available in black and white, the P3 HE is built with a focus on both performance and acoustics, using a silicone-bean gasket mount system that isolates the aluminium plate from the case, effectively cutting out metallic reverberation and “ping”. The interior is further dampened with multiple layers of IXPE and sound-absorbing foam, resulting in a deeper, more refined sound profile. Under the hood, the keyboard relies on Gateron Double-Rail Magnetic Nebula switches, which use the Gateron KS-37 mounting standard, though be aware this limits switch compatibility with other KS-37 magnetic switches.

On the software side, the P3 HE is fully supported by the Lemokey Launcher web app, providing access to a suite of competitive features enabled by its Hall Effect sensors. Users can customise actuation points from 0.2 mm to 3.8 mm with 0.1 mm precision, and enable features such as Rapid Trigger and SOCD (Last Keystroke Prioritisation). The keyboard also supports Dynamic Keystroke (DKS), allowing up to four actions per key based on press depth, and an Analog Mode that mimics a controller's variable input for racing or flight simulations. Connectivity is handled via a tri-mode system, offering 1,000 Hz polling over wired and 2.4 GHz wireless connections, alongside Bluetooth 5.2 for multi-device pairing. Moreover, the P3 HE features north-facing RGB LEDs and comes standard with Cherry profile double-shot PBT keycaps, available in both shine-through and non-shine-through variants.

CD Projekt Red's joint CEO Michał Nowakowski has provided an update on the performance of the Witcher franchise, confirming that every mainline entry in the series has now surpassed 10 million copies sold. This announcement offers insight into the long-term commercial success of the earlier titles, which have often been overshadowed by the monumental success of the third instalment.

The sales figures were shared during a session on X, where Nowakowski (via Polonizacje) responded to a list of the most successful Polish video games curated by Michał Król. This list included The Witcher 3 in first place with 60 million units sold, followed by Cyberpunk 2077 on 35 million and Dying Light with 20 million.

According to the latest figures, the original Witcher game has sold 10 million units, while its sequel, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, has sold 15 million. When added to the staggering 60 million copies achieved by The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, the core trilogy now accounts for over 85 million sales worldwide.

By providing these numbers, it's clear that the franchise's popularity isn't concentrated solely in the final chapter. While the company did not specify an exact total for each spin-off in the series, such as Gwent or Thronebreaker, the combined performance of the mainline games puts the entire Witcher franchise within striking distance of the 100 million-unit mark. This renewed momentum comes as the studio continues development on the next Witcher trilogy and a remake of the first game, alongside a rumoured fourth DLC for The Witcher 3…

KitGuru says: The commercial endurance of the first two Witcher games is particularly impressive given their age and platform limitations at launch. Seeing the first game hit 10 million and the second hit 15 million proves that there is a massive audience still discovering the roots of the series.

Lenovo has released an interesting tiny PC, the ThinkCentre neo 50q which is powered by a 3.0GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon X X1-26-100.  That will certainly help with the price, unfortunately it also uses…

Legendary Tales is a dark fantasy RPG with physics-based combat that's just out on Quest.

Almost two years after its initial release on PC VR and PlayStation VR2, Legendary Tales is available now on the Meta Quest 3 and 3S. We found it has "satisfying" physics-based combat across its extensive dungeon-crawling, with the promise of more than 15 hours of content. Fully playable solo or in online co-op mode, its quest-driven storyline can be experienced with friends from the beginning all the way through to the end. While no specific port features were mentioned, developer Urban Wolf Games mentioned the Quest version has “the most advanced system updates that are not released on PCVR and PSVR2 yet.”

Akin to a Dark Souls experience in VR, the core gameplay mechanic of Legendary Tales is the exploration of loot-filled dungeons complete with skeletons, orcs, and challenging boss fights. Its focus on a hands-on crafting system allows players to collect materials to craft weapons, as well as dabble in alchemy to use various potions to aid in battle. The physics-based combat focuses on precise parrying to retaliate against enemy attacks and hopefully leave every encounter unscathed. Finally, its detailed skill tree gives a bevy of specializations as a rogue, mage, warrior, or a personalized hybrid build.

In a heartfelt Reddit post the day before the game’s release this week, the developer acknowledged the bad timing while also talking about their personal experience regarding developing for virtual reality and its challenges. A DLC expansion named “Dawn of History” with new items, maps, and enemies is expected later this year.

Legendary Tales is out now for Meta Quest, PS VR2, and Steam.

Stellar Blade achieved a ton of success when the PS5 exclusive arrived back in 2024; doubly so once the PC version released a year later – setting records for the PlayStation-published action title on Steam. With a sequel confirmed and rumours that studio SHIFT UP is planning to port the game to additional platforms, we’ve now gotten more up-to-date sales data; with analysts claiming it to have exceeded 6 million copies sold.

As reported by the Korean publication DigitalToday, updated sales data from the (primarily mobile-focused) analytics firm Sensor Tower claims that SHIFT UP’s 2024 hack-and-slash Stellar Blade has sold an estimated 6.1 million copies since its launch on PS5 back in April of said year.

According to the report, the game has sold 3.7 million copies on PS5 and 2.4 million on PC – especially impressive given that the latter only arrived in June of 2025.

Of course, it is worth noting that these sales figures should be taken with somewhat of a pinch of salt and will not be 100% accurate unless it comes from Sony or SHIFT UP themselves.

Officially, the last figures we got was back in June, when it was revealed that Stellar Blade had sold 1 million copies on PC in 3 days – pushing total units sold past 3 million.

Regardless, there’s no denying that Stellar Blade was a success, especially being the first console game from SHIFT UP. It will be interesting to see how sales continue to trend into the future, especially with rumours claiming that the game may be ported to additional platforms.

Fun Train says it is not renewing its license to publish Tarzan VR from Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc. and delisting the game from all platforms.

The Tarzan game was panned and earned a rare "avoid" rating from us in our review, titled "lord of the fumble." The publisher is dropping the game to $4.99 where they can until it's gone, claiming that if you buy it, it will "remain in your library and fully playable" after it is no longer for sale new. Fun Train "will not be supporting the game beyond Jan 31st 2026."

Fun Train is associated as publisher with The Exorcist VR and Twilight Zone VR as well as BlackGate and Jungle Man. BlackGate in particular is off to a strong start on the Quest Store after releasing late last year. Fun Train says its other games aren't affected.

'While we would like to renew the license and keep Tarzan available for new players, the current state of the VR market makes it increasingly difficult to keep legacy titles active across platforms." The email from Fun Train CEO Douglas Nabors notes. "With recent industry-wide studio closures and layoffs—particularly at Meta—it’s clear the market is under real pressure. At this stage, renewing the license for this IP is simply not commercially viable."

The game will no longer be for sale from January 31st on Quest, Steam, and PlayStation stores.

While we warned players to avoid this one and they did, I just spent $5 on Steam for the version of the game originally developed by Stonepunk Studios to keep in my library as a curiosity. What happens when I try to launch it on the Steam Frame in standalone? I'm not sure, but I wanted to have that piece of VR history in my library before it disappeared.

If you haven't had the chance to hear the song made for the Tarzan VR trailer, do give it a listen below before bidding farewell to "the lord of the fumble."

The Life is Strange series is an excellent franchise helping to keep the choice-based adventure genre alive with interesting stories full of heart, relatable characters and a nostalgic vibe. Following on from 2024’s Double Exposure, Square Enix has now confirmed that they will be unveiling the 6th entry in the series next week.

Taking to YouTube, the official Life is Strange channel has teased that the franchise is set to return this year, posting an upcoming livestream set to go live on the 20th of January.

While there is very little to go on so far, the description for the livestream reads as follows: “Separate the real from the rumor… Join us for the exclusive reveal of the next Life is Strange game.”

While this could be a hint towards the game itself, the description is likely in reference to a recent leak by the PEGI ratings board for a game called Life is Strange: Reunion.

Curiously, the description for the title was eerily similar to that of the very first LiS entry – and so this comment by Square could be them trying to hint that there’s more to the game than the leaked description let on.

Either way, we won’t have to wait long to find out, with the Life is Strange livestream set to go live on the 20th of January at 5:30PM UK time.

KitGuru says: Are you excited for more Life is Strange? What did you think of the leaked description? Could it be legit, or is there more going on than it seems? Let us know your thoughts down below.

Years on from its initial release on PlayStation and PC, Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is finally set to land on the Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox next week. In the lead-up to its launch, the team at Square Enix have confirmed that the PS5 and PC versions of the game will receive an update at the same time – bringing a number of welcome quality-of-life improvements.

Taking to Twitter to make the announcement, the official Final Fantasy VII page wrote: “To celebrate Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade launch day on Nintendo Switch 2 & Xbox, a patch for the PS5 and PC versions will launch next Thursday.”

Exact details on the extent of the patch have not been shared, however we did get an overview, with the update set to introduce:

• Streamlined Progression
• The ability to keep HP and MP topped up
• Option to always hit for 9,999 damage

While these features will also be available on the Switch and Xbox versions, having the ability to bypass battles will be especially useful for PC and PS5 players who are simply wanting to re-experience the story ahead of part 3’s release at some point in the future.

Though not recommended for a first time playthrough, having these options available is welcome to see. It’ll be interesting to learn whether the patch introduces any other changes/additions.

KitGuru says: Are you looking forward to the update? Should more JRPGs offer similar options? Let us know your thoughts down below.

Since the game’s launch, the teams at Treyarch/Activision have kept Black Ops 7 feeling fresh thanks to a consistent string of updates both on a weekly and Seasonal basis. In celebration of COD Zombies’ 115 Day (15th of January), Treyarch have teased a ton of Zombies content coming with Season 2 and beyond.

Releasing a blog post to celebrate 115 Day (named after the classic COD Zombies element 115), Treyarch offered a look at what fans can expect going into Black Ops 7 Season 2 and beyond.

Though previously rumoured to be the case, Treyarch have officially confirmed that BO7 will see 5 major zombies maps released through the game’s post-launch Season. So far, we’ve gotten Ashes of the Damned at launch and Astra Malorum during Season 1, meaning there are still 4 main DLC maps to be released.

Of course, BO7 also features a bunch of Survival maps, with the team confirming that the launch of Season 2 will bring with it its 4th survival map: Mars from Astra Malorum. More exciting however is the fact that the well-received Cursed Mode (which brings back many classic Zombies elements) will be coming to survival maps at the start of Season 2.

Another highly-requested feature coming is the addition of a ‘starting room’ mode – harkening back to one of the most popular COD Zombies challenges from back in the day.

Though we only got a brief teaser, the team did confirm that the next big map won’t be arriving until Season 2 Reloaded – but with the addition of Mars and Cursed Survival, there should be plenty for Zombies fans to enjoy in the meantime. The full blog post, including more ancillary changes and additions coming with future updates can be found HERE.

This is a big week for Amazon Prime, with the streaming service having given updates on a number of their upcoming projects. Alongside confirmation that Ryan Hurst is set to play Kratos in the live-action God of War show, Amazon have now released their first promotional image of Sophie Turner as Lara Croft – showing off a look which harkens back to the early days of Tomb Raider.

Taking to Twitter to make the announcement, the official Amazon Prime Video page offered fans a first look at Sophie Turner as Lara Croft for the upcoming live-action series – writing: “Get your artifacts out. Lara's on her way… #TombRaider #WardrobeTest”

Based on the costume, it’s clear that Amazon is going for a look which matches more closely to Croft's earlier entries as compared to the reboot trilogy’s aesthetic; featuring her blue tank top, shorts, fingerless gloves and glasses.

So far, relatively little is known about the plot for the show, however a number of other roles were recently confirmed, with Jason Isaacs playing Lara’s uncle Atlas and Sigourney Weaver taking on the role of original character Evelyn Wallis.

With an interesting cast of characters and a look which is clearly inspired by Lara’s early exploits, it will be curious to see whether the show will follow the plot of any previous games, or if it will be doing its own thing. We will have to wait and see.

KitGuru says: What do you think of the promo image released? Is Sophie Turner convincing as Lara Croft? Do you prefer the classic or rebooted design? Let us know down below.

Meta is shutting down its Quest for business program in 2030, ending sales of commercial SKUs next month, and reducing existing subscriptions to $0/month.

Called Meta Horizon Managed Services since last year, the program was the latest iteration of the company's official offering for businesses to adopt its headsets, including a commercial license and warranty, priority support, and mass device management (MDM).

It started as Oculus for Business, a $900 SKU of the original Oculus Rift launched in 2017. Enterprise SKUs of Oculus Go and Oculus Quest were also made available in this program, until it was replaced by Meta Quest for Business in late 2023, before being renamed to Meta Horizon Managed Services last year. Last year's change also made the program mandatory for enterprise use.

Under the program, Quest headsets were sold at their regular consumer price plus a monthly subscription. There were two tiers of subscription available: Individual Mode for $15/month per headset or Shared Mode for $24/month per headset.

Individual Mode provisions the headset for one specific person, with their own Meta account, while Shared Mode shows a heavily streamlined system interface with only the apps remotely selected by the administrator available, and the settings are also pre-configured.

Administrators could manage headsets with Meta's Admin Center, or existing enterprise user management platforms like Microsoft Intune, VMware Workspace ONE, and Ivanti UEM.

Meta Is Shutting Down Horizon Workrooms Next Month

Meta is shutting down its Horizon Workrooms VR meeting software on February 16, with no direct replacement for its online meetings functionality.

From February 20, Meta says it will cease selling commercial SKUs of Quest headsets, stop taking new customers for the Horizon Managed Services subscription, and reduce the subscription price for existing customers to $0/month.

From January 4, 2030, four years from now, the program will be shut down, and the software will no longer be supported.

"On behalf of Meta, we thank you for your support and partnership", the company tells the businesses that trusted it.

The news comes on the same week the company closed three of its acquired VR game studios, gutted another, stopped updates for its VR fitness service, canceled the sequel for Batman: Arkham Shadow, and announced the shutdown of Workrooms, all part of a wider move to shift spending from VR towards smart glasses.
