Forza Horizon4 Adieu : le 15 décembre Marque End d'une époque

Forza Horizon 4 : la vente numérique se termine le 15 décembre 2024

Le populaire jeu de course en monde ouvert, Forza Horizon 4, sera retiré des principaux magasins numériques le 15 décembre 2024. Cela signifie qu'aucun nouvel achat du jeu ou de son contenu supplémentaire ne sera possible après cette date. Lancé en 2018, Forza Horizon 4, qui se déroule dans un Royaume-Uni fictif, compte plus de 24 millions de joueurs (en novembre 2020) et a été un succès critique et commercial pour Xbox.

Bien qu'il n'ait pas déclaré précédemment son intention de supprimer la liste, le développeur Playground Games confirme la suppression en raison de l'expiration des licences. Le jeu ne sera pas disponible sur le Microsoft Store, Steam et Xbox Game Pass. Tous les DLC seront retirés de l'achat le 25 juin 2024, ne laissant que les éditions Standard, Deluxe et Ultimate disponibles jusqu'à la radiation de décembre.

Série finale de Forza Horizon 4 et accès post-radiation

La dernière série du jeu, la Série 77, se déroulera du 25 juillet au 22 août. Par la suite, l'écran de playlist ne sera plus disponible, mais l'écran des événements Forza restera, proposant des défis quotidiens et hebdomadaires et des événements Forzathon Live. Les joueurs existants peuvent continuer à jouer indépendamment de la radiation. Les abonnés Game Pass avec des abonnements payants actifs et possédant des DLC recevront un jeton de jeu pour conserver l'accès.

Expiration de licence et ventes

La radiation est attribuée à l'expiration des licences pour les voitures et la musique du jeu, un phénomène courant dans les jeux de course. Cela reflète le sort des précédents titres Forza Horizon. Pour capitaliser sur cette actualité, Steam propose une remise de 80 %, et une vente sur le Xbox Store est prévue le 14 août.

Les rumeurs sur Switch 2 suggèrent un "été de Switch 2" l'année prochaine

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment. However, there have been longstanding rumors and industry speculation regarding Bend Studio’s future, particularly after the release of Days Gone in 2019.
Here’s what’s known:

Days Gone, developed by Bend Studio, received mixed to positive reviews but underperformed commercially, which led to internal restructuring at Sony.
In 2020, Sony confirmed that Bend Studio was transitioning from Days Gone to a new, unannounced project — a move that was framed as a strategic shift rather than a cancellation of future work.
There were unconfirmed reports and rumors in 2021 and 2022 suggesting that Bend Studio had reduced staff, potentially due to shifting priorities or a focus on a new internal project. These rumors were never officially confirmed by Sony or Bend Studio.
In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down.

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment. However, there have been longstanding rumors and industry speculation regarding Bend Studio’s future, particularly after the release of Days Gone in 2019. Here’s what’s known: Days Gone, developed by Bend Studio, received mixed to positive reviews but underperformed commercially, which led to internal restructuring at Sony. In 2020, Sony confirmed that Bend Studio was transitioning from Days Gone to a new, unannounced project — a move that was framed as a strategic shift rather than a cancellation of future work. There were unconfirmed reports and rumors in 2021 and 2022 suggesting that Bend Studio had reduced staff, potentially due to shifting priorities or a focus on a new internal project. These rumors were never officially confirmed by Sony or Bend Studio. In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down. So, to clarify: No official job cuts at Bend Studio were confirmed by Sony or the studio itself. The term "cuts" may be a misinterpretation or exaggeration of internal restructuring or staff reallocation. The studio is still active and reportedly working on a new, undisclosed project — potentially a fresh IP, not a sequel to Days Gone. In short: There is no verified evidence of layoffs at Bend Studio. The studio is in a transition phase, focusing on a new, unknown project — common in the industry after a major title release. Bend Studio remains operational and part of Sony’s first-party development network.
