Hell Express is Death Stranding meets Helldivers meets Pacific Drive - aka, deliver letters to the dead in a combat truck

Quick confession: every time I come up with an absolute Frankenstein’s cocktail of allusion-cobbling Google-bait like the headline for this article, a fairy dies. But that’s OK, because Hell Express is a top-down 3D extraction shooter about delivering letters to the dead. When I play it – there’s no release date yet – I will convey a note of apology to the soul of the fairy I’ve just slain with my appalling SEO practices. This may be difficult, however, becau

Ubisoft propose cutting up to 200 jobs at Paris headquarters, as unions reportedly agree three day strike

These plans follow a major bloodbath of game cancellations and restructuring by the publishers last week, which came with a mandate demanding staff return to working in-office five days a week (an annual allowance of work-from-home days was part of that proposal). All of that understandably drew the ire of unions representing Ubisoft workers, with a number now having rep
