▪️ Delisted games like Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time & Aegis Wing briefly reappeared on Xbox Store
▪️ Part of Xbox’s 25th anniversary celebration
Speculation:
Could mean classic Xbox/360 games coming to PC, Cloud Gaming, or Project Helix . More details expected this year.

DELISTED XBOX 360 GAMES ARE MYSTERIOUSLY REAPPEARING!
Titles like Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time & Aegis Wing briefly popped up on the Xbox Store before vanishing again
Why the hype? This follows Xbox VP Jason Ronald’s confirmation at GDC that they are “rolling out new ways to play some of the most iconic games from our past” for the 25th anniversary .
Is this the big return of backward compatibility?

TOM HENDERSON: UNCHARTED 5 WAS PLANNED BEFORE COVID
According to the reliable insider, Naughty Dog had “some planning” for Uncharted 5 prior to the pandemic .
🔍 Key points:
▪️ Plans existed pre-COVID — but no word on how far they progressed
▪️ No current confirmation on whether Uncharted 5 is in active development
▪️ The situation remains unclear today
Recent fuel to the fire:
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy co-director Shaun Escayg recently posted a “Research” photo from Trinidad & Tobago — classic Uncharted territory
Naughty Dog is confirmed to have two projects in development (Intergalactic + one unannounced). Could it be Uncharted?

Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis | Rumored Delay
According to the same leaker
(@RaidersSociety) who revealed the game’s existence days before its official TGA 2025 announcement, the Tomb Raider 1 remake is now targeting a February 2027 release instead of its original 2026 window
Game: Full remake/reimagining of the 1996 classic
Original Window: 2026
New Target: February 2027 (rumored)
Why it makes sense: A packed fall 2026 lineup (GTA VI, Wolverine, Fable) and Crystal Dynamics’ recent restructuring/layoffs make a delay plausible
Note: No official confirmation from Crystal Dynamics or Amazon Games yet
February 2027 would still land ahead of Tomb Raider: Catalyst (brand new entry) — currently still scheduled for 2027 as well

DDR5 PRICE PLUMMET SENDS SHOCKWAVES THROUGH MEMORY INDUSTRY
The memory market just flipped. After months of relentless price surges, DDR5 prices in China have crashed over 30% in a matter of days
What triggered the collapse:
▪️ Google’s TurboQuant algorithm — a new AI memory compression tech that sparked panic about falling demand
▪️ Hoarding panic — scalpers and investors dumping stock after prices soared too high
▪️ Consumer demand frozen — DIY PC sales dropped 60%
The financial bloodbath:
▪️ SK hynix ▼7.56%
▪️ Samsung Electronics ▼5.16%
▪️ Micron ▼~10% (target price cut 17% by Citi)
▪️ Combined market cap losses: Hundreds of billions of dollars in one
⚠️ BUT:
▪️ Contract prices remain stable — only spot market is crashing
▪️ Enterprise/HBM prices are RISING — AI demand hasn’t cooled
▪️ Analysts call this a “panic-driven correction” — not a trend reversal
For gamers: short-term relief.
