- all that and more coming up right now on the Curse Weekly Roundup! This week's Roundup

has been sponsored by Infinite Crisis.

Hey guys it's Jess, and first up, at last weekend's PAX East in Boston, 2k and Firaxis

announced Civilization: Beyond Earth. It's the latest title in the Sid Meier's Civilization

series, and is a continuation of the same gameplay you loved from the franchise, but

this time it's in space! The developers had to think outside the box and come up with

new planets, races, systems...it's a pretty ambitious project, and we grabbed an interview

with the producers at PAX East, we'll link that to you in the description below.

Marty O'Donnell, the composer known for his iconic work with the Halo franchise, has been

let go from Bungie. No official reason has been given, with O'Donnell simply tweeting

that Bungie's board of directors terminated him without cause on April 11th. To many,

he was seen as an asset in the Halo community, and had been most recently working on the

Destiny soundtrack, making this termination all the more surprising.

12 champions, exclusive costumes for two of the champions, an exclusive Founder's Protector

why! We'll pick five lucky commenters and give them each a code - good luck!

CCP's next MMO World of Darkness has been canceled, resulting in a layoff of 56 employees

at their Atlanta office. The game had been a long time in the making, first revealed

8 years ago, and CEO Hilmar Veigar Petursson said in a prepared statement that canceling

the title was one of the hardest decisions he's ever had to make. Following the cancellation,

it was revealed that CCP had recorded a loss of $21 million during the 2013 financial year,

and that the primary reason for the company's drop in profit was an increase in R&D costs

related to EVE Valkyrie, Dust 514, and World of Darkness.

Crystal Dynamics has posted some new job listings to fill roles working on Tomb Raider 2 - and

while we've known for a while that this sequel to the franchise reboot was underway, we've

now been given a slight glimpse into some of the gameplay elements. We now know that

it will be cinematic heavy, and like its predecessor will feature stealth and RPG-lite elements,

as well as an economy. Go ahead and click the link in the video description if you want

to view the Crystal Dynamics job listings for yourself.

Well, that's all the news we have for you this week! As always, be sure to rate, comment,

and subscribe, and I'll see you guys next time! Thanks for watching, enjoy the game.
