The trailer shows a little bit of new gameplay, but it mainly features footage from the recent State of Play presentation.

While its comments don’t really change much, they do add much-needed context.

Mobile gaming has become incredibly popular, even surprising many established game companies. A lot of people who didn’t grow up playing consoles are now gaming regularly on their phones, demonstrating just how much the audience for mobile games is growing. Players like being able to play in short bursts, receive frequent rewards, and access games easily. These preferences are fueling the growth of mobile gaming and influencing the future of entertainment worldwide.

However, its recent release on platforms like PC and Xbox Series X|S indicates it’s no longer being developed exclusively with PlayStation’s support.

Sony has faced a series of challenges recently, starting with disruptions caused by the coronavirus pandemic and its effect on getting parts. On top of that, the company has been dealing with increasing costs for components and tariffs imposed by the United States. Now, a shortage of RAM is adding to these difficulties.

According to insider Tom Henderson, the game is scheduled to be released on January 16th. Many expected to see it featured at Geoff Keighley’s event next week, as Ubisoft likely wants to start taking pre-orders soon.

Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:

Season two of Percy Jackson and the Olympians begins about a year after the events of season one, quickly getting viewers up to speed. Over the past year, Percy (Walker Scobell), Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries), and Grover (Aryan Simhadri) have been away from Camp Half-Blood – Percy and Annabeth have been attending school and Annabeth is reconnecting with her family, while Grover has been searching for Pan. However, a lot has happened during their time apart. Grover has been captured and is in danger, the camp’s defenses have been broken, and Percy discovers he has a half-brother, Tyson, who is a cyclops. These are just some of the problems Percy and his friends must face as Luke continues his efforts to destroy Olympus, and they work to protect the camp and stop him.

The standard version of Mad Men available on HBO Max (excluding the 4K version) looks great. However, the 4K version has a lot of noticeable errors that weren’t fixed during the restoration process. These aren’t just minor color or sound problems—in some scenes, important post-production effects are completely missing.
