The new Xbox DOOM controller contains spikes and blood


Next big game,It comes next month. To help have fun, Xbox announced two new controllers with regards to extermination, one in every of which has spikes, blood and demonic glyphs.
Officially disclosed in JanuaryIN He is a large and amazing prequel to the last games with id Software and Bethesda. The upcoming FPS is to be launched on May 15 on Xbox, PlayStation and PC. He tells the story of the extermination of extermination, i.e. the war of Doom Guy against hell and all nasty monsters that they call the dominion home. It will contain giant mechs and dragons and may be the best game I’ve ever seen. So I’m not surprised that the new Xbox controller inspired by the sport can also be quite nice.
On April 16, he announced Xbox new, Limited 80 USD controller, which is now available until it sells. The controller has been designed to seem like the extermination of extermination, together with a bit splash of blood and the symbol of Slayer engraved in the fitting handle.
I actually like one piece within the new controller that it has 3D spikes near the Xbox Guide button. Of course, they usually are not too big or super sharp, but it surely is a pleasant accent that makes it seem greater than just painting the usual Xbox gamepad.
In addition to the new controller, Microsoft also presented one other Xbox Elite controller, which is darker and more sinister. This one will not be available yet, but you may order prematurely, ranging from today. It costs $ 200, so keep it in mind. There can also be a new packaging of the Xbox Series X console, which turns the console right into a temple dedicated to the Doom conqueror. It is now for $ 55, but it surely is just available within the Microsoft store.
I’m very tempted to lift this standard Xbox controller with blood and spikes. It seems that that is the right option to play when it comes on May 15. Well, I mean that the right way of playing is a pc with a keyboard and a mouse, but this may be the second best option to kill demons next month.

SAG-aftra, massive actors and media with over 160,000 members, lified an unfair charge of labor practice on the National Council for Epic Games regarding the inclusion Darth Vader with AI drive In the most recent update.
Perhaps you heard about Darth Vader with AI drive This was added to the favored Epic Battle Royale game last week as a part of the continued season. Players could consult with this vader powered by AI and ask him questions. The voice of AI was designed to mimic the voice of the deceased James Earl Jones I He finished along with his and his assets.

“We are celebrating the right of our members and their possessions to control the use of their digital replicas and with satisfaction to accept new technologies to enable a new generation to share these heritage and renowned roles” He said in the SAG-AFTRA statement.
“However, we must protect our right to bargain the conditions related to the use of the voice that replace the work of our members, including those who have previously performed work on the iconic rhythm and tone of Darth Vader in video games.”
Sag-aftra says that Epic and Llama Productions “decided to replace the work of human performers AI” and did it without “notifying their intention to this” and without allowing unification on honest conditions.
SAG-aftra voice entities are currently in a strike against large video games, including EA and Activision on various issues. The strike began in 2024. One of the massive ones is greater protection against copies of AILike Darth Vader W.

The former head of Activision Bobby Kotick wants to buy Tiktok: Report

Tiktok is currently in an especially difficult place. Despite the proven fact that everyone knows that they use it for a lot of hours, the video sharing application is currently within the face of regulations that may force its ban within the US in anticipation of potential sales, and potential buyers are queuing up. One of these potential buyers is supposedly Bobby Kotick, the former head of Activision Blizzard, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Tiktok has been examined for years by American legislators, who argued that its Chinese dominant company Bytedance may provide data that collects the Chinese government or that the applying can function a propaganda delivery tool. Despite a while of tension, leading many to the conviction that the applying will likely be banned within the USA, matters seemingly cooled until the bill is pushed through the House Energy and Commerce Committee last week, raising his pressure on Bytedance. It is predicted that the bill will likely be reviewed and approved by the House of Representatives this week before sending to the Senate, and President Joe Biden has already claimed that he would have signed a ban if the Act had made the regulations.
The bill requires Bytedance to “deprive himself of” Tiktoku or see an application prohibited within the USA, which led to re -interest of potential buyers, including Kotick. Kotick, according to the sources of WSJ, raised the concept of buying a co -founder of Bytedance and apparently in search of partners, including Altman himself from OpenAi. According to the Wall Street Journal, “Openai could use a thicket to help train his AI models if a partner like Kotick can raise capital for such a takeover.” Tiktok sales are estimated at “hundreds of billions of dollars”.
Kotick left Activision Blizzard at the top of last 12 months after the sale of the publisher $ 68 billion to Microsoft. Kotick’s term of office in Activision Blizzard lasted a long time and was under fire in 2021, when California filed a lawsuit on investigation regarding allegations of sexual harassment and discrimination. Ultimately, California Department of Citizenship withdrew all allegations and claims regarding harassment and settled with Activision Blizzard in December 2023 for $ 54 million to resolve unjustified claims regarding remuneration and promotion.
The settlement approved by the Court contained an announcement, provided that:
“(N) for a court or any independent investigation justified all allegations that in Activision Blizzard there is a system or universal sexual harassment; that the management of Activision Blizzard ignored, accepted or tolerated the culture of system harassment, retaliation or discrimination; instances of improper behavior in the workplace.”
In addition, the settlement noticed that the former chairman of EEOC conducted a review of company policies, practices and a few data regarding complaints and stated that the corporate was not universal harassment. The company itself publicly published its transparency report, which moreover stated that in Activision Blizzard there was never a typical or systemic harassment or sexual salary.
Kotick left with a golden parachute estimated at about $ 15 million.
Updated: 04/01/2024, 14:00 ET: This article has been updated to contain the main points of the CRD settlement that Activision Blizzard refused all offenses, and the settlement confirms that CRD cannot justify these claims.
Updated: 05/17/2025, 12:10 pm et: This article has been updated with a further language from the CRD settlement and to include this as part of the CRD settlement withdrew claims related to harassment from the criticism.
