Cyberpunk 2077 Dev Explains Long Development Time
Cyberpunk 2077 was announced more than six years ago, and it's planned release remains a mystery, as CD Projekt Red won't even say what year it's coming out. One of the studio's co-founders has now shed some light on the game's lengthy development cycle.
In a recent interview with Kotaku, Marcin Iwiński, the studio's co-founder and co-CEO, downplayed the idea that CD Projekt Red "rebooted" Cyberpunk 2077 during development. In what may just be a matter of semantics, the executive instead stated there were creative changes made.

The upcoming sequel to Spider-Man: Homecoming will feature a different costume for the titular superhero.
Speaking to India West, Homecoming and Ant-Man and the Wasp costume designer Louis Frogley revealed Spidey's suit will undergo some big changes. The new look will seemingly be a direct reaction to Peter Parker's growth as a hero and a man.
“I am not actually working on that film, but the costumes will have very big changes because, in the film, Spider-Man becomes more like a man and not a teenager," Frogley said.

Forza Horizon 4’s Shared World Explained
For the first time in the series Forza Horizon 4 is a shared world game. It’s a big change, and one which Playground Games creative director Ralph Fulton describes as a “huge paradigm shift.” It’s also a potentially a concerning one for some but, as it’s still optional, it probably shouldn’t be.
First and foremost, the nature of Forza Horizon 4’s shared world changes the other racers you’ll see while cruising around the open world. In Forza Horizon 2 and 3, the cars you saw hooning around the environment were what the Forza series dubs Drivatars; AI powered driver profiles drawn from your friends list and beyond. In Forza Horizon 4 we’ll still race against Drivatars when we start an event, but the cars you’ll encounter in free roam will now be real people within a 72-player server. The reason Playground Games is doing this is because the team believes that real players will exhibit more interesting, more unpredictable, and more fun behaviour than they could ever program into Drivatars.
