It’s best not to rule anything out! We’re seeing more and more games being released on multiple platforms, as developers try to reach as many players as possible. So it’s natural to wonder if a game available on PC and Xbox will also come to PlayStation – though the Nintendo Switch operates in a slightly different market. This is definitely the case with Jump Space.
The first edition is currently selling for around $100 on Amazon from resellers, so this new reprint is likely to sell quickly. Hopefully, Paramount will also re-release the Avatar: The Last Airbender Steelbook Collection, as it’s become very expensive to buy.

This means the contracts of around 200 workers – who currently handle tasks like customer support via phone, email, and chat, as well as financial and account management – will end in September. Many of these workers have been with Nintendo for a long time. One contractor stated that the U.S.-based team is being completely phased out, with very few remaining on-site.
As a Pokémon fan, I’m super excited to hear about this event celebrating 30 years of the franchise! Apparently, the Natural History Museum is a perfect fit – their director, Adam Farrar, told Eurogamer they’re both huge fans of nature and how it changes and diversifies. They’re hoping this collaboration will get people, like me, even more interested in real-world creatures, both Pokémon *and* the ones we share the planet with. It sounds awesome!
The world of gaming is incredibly varied, with people enjoying all sorts of games on PCs, consoles, and mobile devices – we’re all part of a huge community!

This often forces indie developers to make tough choices and focus on releasing their game on just one platform, usually PC, to start.
