🎮 Multi-platformFar Cry TV Show Adds Iconic, Veteran Actor Steve Buscemi
The upcoming Far Cry anthology TV series from FX has added another big name to its cast. Joining Rob Mac and Lizzy Caplan(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/far-cry-tv-show-adds-a-fantastic-actor/) is Steve Buscemi, the prolific, veteran, Emmy-winning actor known for many roles over the decades. Buscemi is known for his roles in the movies Reservoir Dogs, Fargo, The Big Lebowski, and Big Fish. In the world of TV, Buscemi played memorable roles in The Sopranos, Boardwalk Empire, and Miracle Workers. The Far Cry games bounce around between settings and characters with each new installment, and the TV show will follow that format as well with its anthology setup. Each new season of the show will take place in a "new setting following a new cast of characters." https://twitter.com/FarCrygame/status/2077122212100776070 Noah Hawley (Alien: Earth and the Fargo TV series) and Rob Mac (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia) are the executive producers for the Far Cry TV show. The show does not yet have a release date, but whenever it's ready, it will be available on FX and Hulu, along with Disney+ internationally. Hawley ruffled some feathers recently when he said the traditional gameplay structure of a video game–gameplay and skippable cutscenes–does not make for a compelling TV show story(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/far-cry-tv-series-wont-adapt-any-of-the-games-showrunner-says/1100-6539611/). Hawley said his aim with the Far Cry show is to “have a dialog” with the franchise but not adapt any specific game or story from the series. “Games are built in a way that doesn’t make for the best drama,” he said. As for the Far Cry game series, Ubisoft is reportedly working on Far Cry 7 right now(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/far-cry-multiplayer-extraction-game-has-been-rebooted-far-cry-7-could-release-in-2026-report/1100-6529853/). The game is in development under the supervision of the Tencent-backed Vantage Studios, which also controls the creative decisions for the Assassin's Creed and Rainbow Six franchises.
🟩 Xbox, Multi-platformTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 Has Disappeared From Game Pass Without Explanation
After being previously announced as a new arrival for Xbox Game Pass this month(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/xbox-game-pass-new-games-for-july-revealed/), Microsoft has mysteriously pulled Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2(https://www.gamespot.com/games/tony-hawks-pro-skater-1-plus-2/) from the July lineup. Microsoft hasn't provided an explanation for why it's doing this, with many left wondering as to the cause behind this. The current theory is that the removal could be related to rights issues, as Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 was first released almost six years ago and features a jukebox full of 2000s-era music, with a few '90s classics sprinkled in for good measure. The game also features numerous real-world skateboarding brands, all of which required a licensing deal to be included in the game. It's worth noting that Microsoft owns the game and the Tony Hawk Pro Skater IP, as it acquired the game's publisher, Activision, back in 2023--a purchase that has contributed(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/microsoft-spent-80-billion-on-its-bet-for-xbox-game-pass-it-did-not-work/) to several layoffs at Xbox, including last week's devastating round of "reset" retrenchments(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/xbox-layoffs-studio-closures-and-spin-offs-everything-announced-today/). Meanwhile, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4(https://www.gamespot.com/games/tony-hawks-pro-skater-3-plus-4/) is still available to play through Game Pass, as it was added to the subscription service when it launched last year. A replacement for Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 has not yet been announced, and for now, the announcement image has been edited to only show off the other nine games that were previously announced. Winds of Arcana, Tamashika, Ascend to Zero, and PBA Pro Bowling 2026 have already been added to the Game Pass library, and the rest of the month includes Quarantine Zone: The Last Check, Mavrix by Matt Jones, FixForce, The Planet Crafter, and Fogpiercer. Gears of War: Reloaded also arrived earlier this month, for the lower tier of Game Pass. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 first launched in September 2020, and it earned rave reviews for updating the classic Pro Skater games for modern platforms. "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 deftly recreates the original games' levels while implementing smart additions to the trick system and creating engaging challenges," Mat Paget wrote in GameSpot's review(https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/tony-hawks-pro-skater-1-2-review/1900-6417555/).
🎮 Multi-platformThe tiniest MMO

🎮 Multi-platformPath Of Titans Players Say Goodbye To Sam Neill With A Dinosaur March
Beloved actor Sam Neill sadly passed away on Monday, July 13, leaving many fans shocked about his untimely passing. Neill had recently made a full recovery from cancer, and the actor leaves behind a body of work that stretches across multiple movies and TV series. To many, Neill is best-known for his role as Dr. Alan Grant in 1993's Jurassic Park, and to celebrate his legacy, multiple players in Path of Titans(https://www.gamespot.com/games/path-of-titans/) embarked on a dinosaur migration to pay tribute to him. The turnout saw players transform into several signature dinosaurs from the Jurassic Park film series, including herbivores like the Triceratops and Brachiosaurus to carnivores like the infamous Spinosaurus from Jurassic Park 3. What makes the tribute extra-impressive is that isle servers in Path of Titans typically don't allow for so many mixed species to co-exist on them, and pulling off a migration of this magnitude required a lot of communication and coordination from players. https://www.tiktok.com/@skylarjameson13tigersky/video/7662203527338429726 Beyond Jurassic Park, Neill appeared in many other films and TV projects throughout his career. Throughout the '80s and '90s, Neill featured in big films like The Hunt for Red October and Event Horizon, and in 1998, he starred in the Merlin mini-series as the titular wizard, with the show being critically acclaimed for its unique blend of special effects and storytelling. Neill would return to Isla Nublar--sorry, Isla Sorna--for Jurassic Park 3 in 2001, and in later years, he'd pop up in 2022's Jurassic Park: Dominion and the first two Jurassic World Evolution(https://www.gamespot.com/games/jurassic-world-evolution/) video games. In animation, Neill also made a memorable appearance(https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:e6bgpkdom5zlzs5sxy5piaqy/post/3mqj6yfqxnk2i) as the cat burglar Molloy(https://simpsons.fandom.com/wiki/Molloy) in The Simpsons episode "Homer the Vigilante". https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:t2e24433sb4folqbudqiiite/post/3mqjgnvzh3c27 https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:g3buk6ypvrp3sbvmdfn6xek6/post/3mqiyqaa2vs2a Outside of acting, Neill was known for his warmth and humanity. Since his passing, anecdotes about his kindness have been shared online, ranging from a story about how he requested the Australian flag on his uniform in Event Horizon be altered to show the Aboriginal flag instead of the Union Flag, as he imagined that's how it would look by the year 2047, the setting of the movie. https://twitter.com/TwoPaddocks/status/1301085930531549184 Other accounts spoke of how he sought to inject a layer of humanity into his Jurassic Park character, while his exploits of running a farm and vineyard in his homeland of New Zealand made him popular on social media. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAaKfOsju7s
