20This week’s GeForce NOW news brings both exciting updates and some disappointing announcements for fans we cover this in this weeks GeForce NOW Thursday news. We cover everything from Ubisoft’s latest decision to delay Assassin’s Creed Shadows until February 2025, and how their recent struggles with Star Wars Outlaws might have influenced this decision. Plus, we explore Ubisoft’s new approach to monetization, offering pre-order bonuses instead of traditional season passes, and how this might reflect broader changes for the company moving forward.
In addition, we take a deep dive into the Starfield Shattered Space DLC, launching on September 30th, and what you can expect from the first major expansion. We’ll uncover the new mysteries of Va’ruun’kai, face off against cosmic threats, and explore the dark, eerie atmosphere in this new chapter of the Starfield universe.
That’s not all—Remnant II fans have something to celebrate with the release of The Dark Horizon DLC and a brand-new Boss Rush mode. We’ll break down the new content, its challenges, and what’s in store for players as they return to the world of N’Erud.
We also highlight a major milestone for Steam, which has just shattered its all-time concurrent player record, surpassing 38 million users online at once. With the rising popularity of the Steam Deck and cloud services like GeForce NOW, Steam’s reach continues to grow, raising questions about how well competitors like the Epic Games Store are doing.
On a more somber note, we’ll cover the upcoming shutdown of Hood: Outlaws and Legends, a PvPvE action game based on the Robin Hood legend. Set to close its servers in February 2025, we reflect on its troubled history, server issues, and the end of its journey.
