#63: Collateral Damage

Apple and Epic's war of attrition over the money spent on Fortnite v-bucks continues this week and Apple isn't afraid to burn down all the bridges as it announces that all of Epic's development accounts will be shut out from iOS and Mac on August 28th, including those operated by third party developers. Does your game run on Unreal Engine? Apple says you're just as at fault as Epic. Shady tactics and lawsuits between mega corporations aside... oh no, we're not done there just yet! Facebook announced that by October, you've gotta switch to a Facebook account to keep getting access to the latest features of your Oculus VR gear.

The next entry in the Call of Duty series is officially announced, more veteran devs leave Rockstar Games, and could Demon Souls on PlayStation 5 join Spider-Man: Miles Morales as a launch title?
