Star Wars Republic Commando is confirmed for PS4 and Switch

A flashback to the good-old 2000's era. Not a remake, nor remastered though.

For a price tag as little as $15, you will get a massive nostalgia feeling with the single-player only version of Star Wars Republic Commando, releasing 6 April.

The critically acclaimed creation of the true original LucasArts is now getting re-released by Aspyr, the company who takes full fame for re-releasing other classic Star Wars titles, such as Jedi Outcast I & IIEpisode I: Racer etc.

The game previously had been made available on Xbox One via backwards compatibility, for PS4 and Switch release, Aspyr is responsible.

Players control the main character, RC-1338 and his team to take on various missions through the Star Wars galaxy in this tactical-FPS game.

Sony has ended Horizon Zero Dawn's and Death Stranding's exclusivity to the PS4 last year, now Days Gone's up for pre-order on Steam.

In complete silence Bend Studio's masterpiece, Days Gone has landed on Steam yesterday, promising the game to be released as soon as this spring.

The game will release with several game-improving features, such as improved details in graphics, rendering distance, uncapped framerate and many more. These features will of course need a pretty powerful gaming rig to run smoothly, but an SSD is also in the list of the system requirements.

All the features that were previously released to PS4 (New Game +, Survival, Challenge Modes and bike modifications) will also be present in the PC version.

Big promises in latest tweet thread, but we'll have to wait for a bit longer.

While we dearly wanted to deliver Patch 1.2 for Cyberpunk 2077 in the timespan we detailed previously, the recent cyber attack on the studio’s IT infrastructure and extensive scope of the update mean this unfortunately will not happen — we’ll need some additional time.
Our goal for Patch 1.2 goes beyond any of our previous updates. We’ve been working on numerous overall quality improvements and fixes, and we still have work to do to make sure that’s what you get. With that in mind, we’re now aiming for release in the second half of March.
It’s not the news we enjoy sharing, but we want to make sure we launch this update properly. Stay tuned for more information as the time draws closer. Thank you for your continued patience and support. – Cyberpunk 2077 on Twitter

This month hackers have gained access to CD Projekt Red's sensitive data on their internal servers and claimed that they have sold them on black-market sites – including source code of Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3. This huge batch of data has supposedly also contained company documentation, employees' personal data and unreleased The Witcher 3 and Gwent content.

After Cyberpunk 2077's awful release and the scandals around it, CDPR has sufferred major damage in their reputation, which they promised to "heal over time" in 2021.
For a quick restoration a rather unsure roadmap of future updates has been released for the game by the developers – but after the hacker attack, the following steps seem to be even more obscure.
