Originally scheduled for a November (i.e. 11) 11 release which would coincide with Skyrim's 11th anniversary, Bethesda have delayed their sci-fi roleplaying game, Starfield to 2023.
Joining it is Arkane's first person shooter vampire game, Redfall.
This being May the 4th (as in, may the force with you), the Star Wars folk have dropped another trailer for upcoming series Obi-Wan Kenobi and also two character pack DLCs for recently released LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.
The trailer is fine as trailers go but unlike their March teaser fails to evoke the Star Wars spirit.
Following the full cancellation of this year's E3, Microsoft have announced that they will hold their own Xbox and Bethesda showcase on June 12 which will be streamed online.
Bethesda's Nasapunk roleplaying game Starfield is due to release later this year and doubtless will feature prominently in the show.
"Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members will be able to stream “Halo” through an exclusive offer of Paramount+ for 30 days free via Perks, available to claim starting on March 23."
While this offer is communicated via the Xbox US site, there's no talk of regional qualifiers and Halo is releasing globally on Paramount+ where it's available, eg. Australia.
Right now everyone is talking about fantasy roleplaying Souls-like Elden Ring, eg. nearing a million concurrent Steam users and being trash talked by other developers for breaking the mould and setting new standards.
It has to be tough for other developers. Games typically take five plus years to develop and releasing into a market with changed expectations and tastes is not ideal.
