New Fumito Ueda Game Reveals Title: gen ATLAS Fumito Ueda, the creator behind Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, has officially named his upcoming project gen ATLAS. The game, previously known as “Project Robot,” is the debut title from Ueda’s new studio, genDESIGN. It is described as a “single-player, open-world, action-adventure” and will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC via the Epic Store. This marks the first time a Ueda game has not been exclusive to PlayStation, following his departure from Sony during the development of The Last Guardian and the subsequent closure of Japan Studio. The game’s setting is detailed in a press release, which describes the player awakening on an “abandoned planet.” The world features vast, silent landscapes, colossal structures, deserted facilities, and an ever-changing sea. The remnants of a grand design litter the planet’s surface, and as the player journeys deeper, they encounter a colossal robot whose overwhelming power opens new paths and reshapes their understanding of the world. The description emphasizes exploration of a strange, desolate environment where the remnants of forgotten constructs begin to move again. Ueda expressed gratitude to fans for their support, stating, “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game. Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” No official release date or window has been announced for gen ATLAS. Fans of Ueda’s previous work, such as The Last Guardian, may recognize the uncertainty, as that game took nine years to develop and was delayed multiple times during its long production cycle.#playstation_5 #xbox_series_x #fumito_ueda #gen_atlas #gen_design
Fallout 3 Hits 60 FPS and 4K on Xbox Series X Fallout 3 has received a significant performance upgrade on the Xbox Series X, now running at 60 frames per second with 4K enhancements. This improvement transforms the original 30 FPS release into a smoother, more visually refined experience on modern hardware. Players who already own the game can immediately benefit from the update by launching it on the Xbox Series X, which delivers a cleaner and faster gameplay experience compared to its original console setup. The upgrade comes during a prolonged gap in the Fallout franchise’s mainline single-player releases, with over a decade passing since the last major entry. Bethesda remains focused on developing The Elder Scrolls VI, pushing back the anticipated release of Fallout 5 further into the future. Despite this, the Xbox Series X update positions Fallout 3 as a more accessible entry point for players seeking to experience the older single-player era without the limitations of its original hardware. The 60 FPS boost is the primary highlight of the update. While Fallout 3 was previously capped at 30 FPS, the Xbox Series X version runs the same game with smoother animations and more fluid combat and movement mechanics. This change enhances the overall playability, making the experience feel less rigid on modern displays. Additionally, the 4K enhancement provides a sharper visual output, offering Xbox Series X players a cleaner image than the original release could deliver. This is particularly notable for those revisiting the game after years of using higher-resolution displays. The update also extends to other Fallout titles on the Xbox Series X, including Fallout 4, Fallout 76, and Fallout: New Vegas, which now benefit from FPS Boost.#bethesda #fallout_4 #fallout_3 #xbox_series_x #fallout_76
