EA restructure BioWare, se concentrant uniquement sur le prochain jeu de masse

Electronic Arts (EA) a annoncé une restructuration de BioWare, le studio derrière les franchises Dragon Age et Mass Effect. La restructuration implique de réaffecter un certain nombre de développeurs à d'autres projets EA et de concentrer toutes les ressources restantes sur le prochain jeu Mass Effect.

Dans un article de blog, le directeur général de BioWare, Gary McKay, a expliqué que le studio est "de réinventer la façon dont nous travaillons" au cours de la période entre les principaux cycles de développement. Il a déclaré que la phase de développement actuelle des effets de masse ne nécessite pas l'ensemble du travail du studio. De nombreux employés de BioWare ont été transférés à d'autres rôles appropriés au sein d'EA. Un plus petit nombre de membres de l'équipe de Dragon Age ont fait terminer leurs positions, avec la possibilité de postuler à d'autres rôles internes.

BioWare a subi des changements structurels importants ces dernières années, notamment les licenciements en 2023 et plusieurs départs de haut niveau, plus récemment la directrice Corinne Busche. Le nombre exact des employés actuels à BioWare reste non divulgué. Bien que EA n'ait pas fourni de chiffres spécifiques concernant l'impact de la restructuration, un porte-parole a confirmé que le studio est désormais entièrement axé sur l'effet de masse, possédant le personnel approprié pour le stade de développement actuel. Le porte-parole a souligné que Dragon Age était la priorité précédente du studio, et un personnel travaillant auparavant sur Mass Effect était temporairement attribué à Dragon Age pour assurer son achèvement. Ces individus reviennent maintenant au projet Mass Effect.

Le nouveau jeu Mass Effect, annoncé il y a quatre ans, en est encore à ses débuts. La stratégie actuelle de BioWare priorise la concentration sur un jeu à la fois. Les développeurs vétérans Mike Gamble, Preston Watamaniuk, Derek Watts et Parrish Ley dirigent le développement de masse.

Cette annonce fait suite à la récente révélation d'EA que Dragon Age: The Veilguard n'a pas réussi à des cibles des joueurs d'environ 50%, ce qui contribue à une réduction des directives pour l'exercice. L'appel de gains du troisième trimestre d'EA est prévu pour le 4 février.

The quote you're referencing — "Hideo Kojima Should Make a New P.T.-Style Game, or Maybe I Will, Says Bayonetta and Devil May Cry Creator Hideki Kamiya" — is a misattribution or rephrased headline that likely stems from media speculation or fan interpretation, not a direct statement from Hideki Kamiya. To clarify: Hideki Kamiya is the creator of Devil May Cry and Bayonetta. He has long expressed admiration for P.T. (Playable Teaser), Hideo Kojima’s 2014 horror prototype for Silent Hills. Kamiya has, on multiple occasions, spoken in interviews about how P.T. was a revolutionary piece of horror game design — particularly for its atmosphere, tension, and innovative use of environment and player psychology. In interviews (such as those from 2015–2016 and more recently in 2023), Kamiya has expressed regret that P.T. was canceled and has hinted that he would love to make a game in a similar spirit — a short, intense, psychological horror experience that subverts expectations, much like P.T. did. However, he has never said that Kojima "should" make a new P.T.-style game, nor has he directly stated, "or maybe I will." That phrasing is a headline-style exaggeration common in gaming news for clickbait. What Kamiya Has Actually Said: "I wanted to make a game like P.T., but I never got the chance." "P.T. was a masterpiece. I wish I could’ve made something like that." "If I had the chance to make a horror game with the same atmosphere and tension, I would." So, What’s the Truth? Kamiya admires P.T. and shares its creative DNA in terms of psychological horror and environmental storytelling. He has not confirmed a new P.T.-style game in development. He has expressed interest in making a short, intense horror experience, potentially inspired by P.T., but it remains speculative. As for Kojima — while he’s been open about wanting to return to horror with a new Silent Hills (a project he’s been trying to revive), no official game has materialized. Conclusion: The quote is a fictionalized or exaggerated summary of Kamiya’s feelings toward P.T. and his own creative ambitions. While he has said he'd love to make a game like P.T., the exact wording you quoted — especially the “or maybe I will” — is not a verbatim quote but a media rephrasing. For fans of P.T., the dream lives on — not just in Kojima’s rumored new projects, but also in the inspiration it continues to give creators like Kamiya.

Hideki Kamiya’s recent reflections on P.T.—the legendary, canceled horror demo that reshaped modern gaming’s psychological horror landscape—offer a poignant glimpse into how one short, enigmatic experience continues to echo across the industry. Thoug

As of now, there is no official confirmation that Yakuza Kiwami 3 is in development or on the way, despite recent fan speculation sparked by an alleged leak involving the RGG Studio website. In early 2024, some fans noticed what appeared to be a hidden or outdated reference to Yakuza Kiwami 3 on a page of the RGG Studio (Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio) website, leading to rumors and buzz across gaming forums and social media. However, the evidence remains circumstantial—no official announcement, trailer, or developer statement has been released by Sega or RGG Studio. It’s worth noting that Yakuza Kiwami 3 was originally released in 2018 in Japan and later received a remastered version for PlayStation 4 in 2021. The "Kiwami" series refers to remastered versions of the original Yakuza games, so a full remake of Yakuza 3 would technically be a Yakuza Kiwami 3—but that would only make sense if the original wasn't already remastered. Therefore, the most likely explanation is that the leak was either a leftover web element, a fan-made hoax, or an old URL that hasn’t been properly decommissioned. Sega and RGG Studio have not addressed the alleged website artifact, and no credible sources (like Bloomberg, VG247, or Destructoid) have reported on a new Kiwami 3 project. In short: While the fan excitement is understandable, there is currently no evidence that Yakuza Kiwami 3 is officially in development. For now, it remains a rumor fueled by online speculation. Stay tuned to official sources—like Sega’s press releases, RGG Studio’s social media, or major gaming expos—for any real news.

The alleged leak of Yakuza Kiwami 3 from RGG Studio’s official website has sent shockwaves through the Like a Dragon fan community—fueling long-held hopes that the beloved remastering series may finally expand to include the third mainline entry. 🔍 W
