Ubisoft says it won't charge more for PS5 and Xbox Series X games this fall
Ubisoft has publicly committed to keeping prices for new games released on next-gen consoles this fall at $60, the company said in an earnings call on Wednesday. That diverges from the strategy of fellow video game publisher Take-Two Interactive and its subsidiary 2K Games, which are planning to charge an extra $10 for next-gen PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X versions of the upcoming NBA 2K21.

"We plan to come with the same price as the previous generation of consoles" were the company's words, though in reference only to its fall slate of new releases. While this is Ubisoft's first time saying aloud it will not raise prices for next-gen games released this holiday season, its Xbox preorder pages for games like Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Watch Dogs Legion already indicated that prices would stay the same.

Halo Infinite Box Art Revealed and It Looks... Familiar
343 Industries has revealed the Halo Infinite box art ahead of a campaign reveal today. The box art shows Master Chief standing in a field with a broken Halo installation in the background - many fans have noticed the clear resemblance between Infinite's box art and that of the first game in the series, Halo: Combat Evolved.

If you look closely at Master Chief's visor, you can spot what appears to be the game's villain, which may well be a member of The Banished, a faction confirmed to appear in Halo Infinite earlier this year. It could also be 'Hyperious,' a character leaked by a set of Mega Bloks toys that surfaced online in early July. Master Chief also has a grappling hook on his left wrist, adding credibility to rumours about Infinite's gameplay that surfaced earlier this week.

We'll be sure to hear more about Halo Infinite during today's Xbox Games Showcase, which will offer up our first glimpse into the game's campaign. It begins at 12 PM EST and you can find more info .
