Ubisoft kills NFT game, Bloodborne on PC stays a mystery

Ubisoft is shutting down its NFT tactics game in October, the company confirming the closure of what has become a symbol of its recent strategic misfires. The decision caps a rough stretch for the publisher and effectively ends its most visible blockchain gaming experiment.

Shuhei Yoshida, the former Sony executive, says Bloodborne being absent from PC remains 'a complete mystery' to him — a candid admission that will sting fans who have campaigned for years for a port. Separately, Dragon Quest 7's remake briefly shipped with Denuvo DRM before reversing course following player pushback, and Game Freak's Beast of Reincarnation was reportedly leaked by pirates three days before its official release.

Palworld trading cards are already being flipped by scalpers on eBay following the card game's launch, with prices climbing sharply. A Did You Know Gaming video is challenging Metacritic's long-held score for Ocarina of Time, putting its position at the top of the all-time ratings under scrutiny. And a Mario developer revealed that a handmade diorama used to pitch a Zelda game to Shigeru Miyamoto ended up burned after he rejected it — too painful a memory to keep.
