Oracle is cutting up to 30,000 employees to pay for AI data centres... And it started with a 6 AM email.
Employees across the US, India, Canada, and Mexico woke up on 31 March to termination emails from βOracle Leadershipβ with no prior warning. TD Cowen estimates the cuts will affect 18% of Oracleβs 162,000-person workforce and free up $8-10 billion to fund AI infrastructure. Oracle has not confirmed the total number.

And Nintendo's controversial patent is no longer valid. They have some time to appeal but I assume they will not get it anyway.
For context: they are not the authors of the idea, the gameplay feature has been used before them. This case is so bad that it caused changes in the patent office itself.

Blizzard just updated Diablo II: Resurrected on Steam and the game is not working anymore. Some say they pushed console client to PC.
Will they come out in like a few hours and "hey, April fools, right?" Since it's not even a joke...

Meanwhile, the first in decades crewed mission to fly around the Moon has been safely launched. No landing this time but still cool. Artemis II will fly around Earth now, then will orbit the Moon six times, and turn back home.

The new Legacy of Kain: Ascendance got 30% positive on Steam and 58 on OpenCritic. The game was criticized for being poorly-executed retro with zero quality of life features in mind nor variety that modern metroidvanias offer.
You can literally walk, do a simple attack, and jump, that's the whole game. And levels are boring, enemies are boring, you have seen it all in the first five minutes.
