In the wild world of gaming, March 2025 brought forth some truly bizarre tales. First up, a character's voluptuous thighs in a game supposedly tied to Japan's economic woes - a truly head-scratching correlation. Then, Hazelite Studios dares players with an insanely difficult level, rewarding the sole victor with a visit to the studio for a sneak peek at their next project. Next, the unexpected appearance of football legend Cristiano Ronaldo in Fatal Fury raises eyebrows and questions about promotional deals in the gaming realm. Meanwhile, Margarite Entertainment's acquisition of the infamous disaster game Big Rigs Over the Road Racing hints at a curious future for the title.
Moving on, the colossal investment of $1.25 billion by Tencent in a Ubisoft spin-off company sparks intrigue and speculation about the gaming giant's strategic moves. Meanwhile, gaming mastermind Sakurai's plea to preserve the essence of Japanese games amidst Western influences stirs up a debate on cultural authenticity in game development. In a surprising turn of events, a Japanese rental service offers a PS5 for a mere $6.56, shaking up the traditional gaming market pricing schemes.
The gaming world's limits are tested with the release of a Dying Light special edition priced at a jaw-dropping $386,000, which surprisingly fails to attract any buyers. ID Software's announcement of Doom: The Dark Ages signals a bold departure from conventional storytelling in the beloved franchise, promising a fresh and expansive narrative approach. Lastly, a super slim PS2 emerges on AliExpress, offering a nostalgic yet sleek twist on a classic console design, captivating gamers with its unique appeal.
