Bluepoint Games Closure Comes in Light of “Increasingly Challenging Industry Environment” – Rumor

by

Okay, so the news started with a lot of praise for PlayStation Studios – seriously, games like Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, Ghost of Yōtei, Helldivers 2, and MLB The Show have been amazing and everyone loves them!

The hashrate, which had slumped to a dreary 826 EH/s, has bounced back with the enthusiasm of a debutante at her first ball, now strutting at 1 ZH/s.
