Yes that's right, I'm declaring an end to the console wars, and its end comes with Forza heading to PS5. They end not with a bang, but a whimper. Also Multiversus fails to capture any market share from Super Smash Bros, and is shutting down after a year. Both Fantastic Four and Jurassic World Rebirth drop some serious trailers. And EA faces and interesting future. While Disney+ loses almost a million subs, and Buffy is returning to a screen near you.

We had a lot of investor news this week, between WB's earnings call, the Sony State of Play, and a Pokémon Presents. EA wants to beef up production on Battlefield, while Ubisoft seems to be less and less interested in beyond good and evil 2 with each passing day. HBO Max loses one prequel and gains another.
