Samsung Galaxy S6 release date said to be scheduled for late March

The Samsung Galaxy S6 flagship smartphone is scheduled to make its first official appearance during the MWC 2015, which takes place at the beginning of March in Barcelona. But being able to see something and being able to buy it are entirely different matters. We’re definitely interested in finally taking a good look at the thing, but we’re even more interested in learning its release date. As fate would have it, a new report by Phone Arena suggests that we won’t have to wait long until we’ll be able to get our hands on it, as the Samsung Galaxy S6 is apparently scheduled to release on March 22nd or sometime close to that day.
This information was shared by an anonymous tipster that leaked a memo describing Samsung’s vacation blackout periods. The memo was allegedly leaked by an employee of the company and lists March 22-30 as the first vacation blackout period. Supposedly, blackout periods come immediately after a major product launch, which is why it’s speculated that the Samsung Galaxy S6 will be launched on March 22nd or perhaps a few days prior. Also, there’s yet another blackout period between April 19-27,so we should expect another big release around that time. This second product could be the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, however, it may also be something else, possibly a new tablet. We’ll just have to wait and see.
Presumably, the Samsung Galaxy S6 will first launch in its home country of South Korea on March 22nd and then make its way to other markets in the following weeks and months. If you live in the US or Europe you probably shouldn’t expect to see the device in stores before April. As for the price tag, prepare to fork out anywhere between $750 and $900 (maybe even more) depending on how much storage memory you’re looking for.

If Not Already Clear, Elder Scrolls 6 Will Skip PlayStation

Despite Microsoft’s acquisition of Bethesda, The Elder Scrolls 6 was not confirmed as an Xbox exclusive a few months ago. This happened because Xbox executive Phil Spencer indicated that target platforms hadn’t been selected yet, but it always felt like he was talking about the game being years away rather than the RPG being on PlayStation.
If you’re still holding out, Microsoft plans to release The Elder Scrolls 6 just on Xbox and PC. Documents from the company’s FTC lawsuit were recently released. In the document, Bethesda’s announced titles (both as a publisher and developer) are listed, and The Elder Scrolls 6 is listed for Xbox, PC, and nothing else.
We expected this, but The Elder Scrolls 6 was announced before Microsoft acquired its developer. The Elder Scrolls is a beloved franchise that’s been on various platforms for generations, so this isn’t Starfield.
However, the game isn’t due until 2026 at the earliest, according to the paper, and who knows what the gaming landscape will be like then.

Xbox Nearly Flashed Warner Bros Cash, Sees Nintendo as Holy Grail

Xbox CEO Phil Spencer’s mid-2020 dystopian email suggests the business was interested in buying Warner Bros Interactive and Bethesda. Even more alarming, the CEO calls buying Nintendo a “career moment” and “good for both companies” — and there are even rumors that Microsoft was interested in Valve.
While Spencer warns that acquiring Nintendo would be “hostile action” but “playing the long game”, the unprecedented corporate convergence is shockingly casual. He added: “Nintendo is taking a long time to realize their future is off their hardware. A long time… He even ended the chat with a smiling emoji to make it look more evil.
Spencer claims that Warner Bros Interactive was “gettable” when Microsoft was rumored to acquire it. He adds that “we wouldn’t own any of the IP which hurts long-term flexibility”. Because most Warner Bros Interactive developers work on franchises like Batman, Harry Potter, and others, the studios are worth little without the brands.
The email is over three years old, but it reveals Microsoft’s blasé approach to acquisitions and its goals. While its eventual acquisition of Activision Blizzard may have changed its plans, this leaked exchange suggests that Microsoft will not stop until it has absorbed as much of the industry as possible, even targeting Nintendo.

Stig Asmussen Leaving Respawn for Galaxies Unknown

Jedi: Fallen Order and Jedi: Survivor director Stig Asmussen is leaving Respawn Entertainment for unknown reasons. Asmussen had planned a trilogy for Cal Kestis, but it appears another author will need to write it.
Bloomberg reports that an EA spokesperson said: “Stig Asmussen has left Respawn to pursue other adventures, and we wish him the best. Veteran Respawn leaders will lead Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.”
This move is surprising, but Asmussen leaves on a high note. Jedi: Survivor is a great game despite its performance issues, which is rare for a Star Wars game. We’ll see where Asmussen goes, but we’re excited.
