Tech News Deep Dive: July 2025’s Biggest Stories in Innovation, Gaming, and the Cosmos

July 2025 has proven to be a landmark month for the technology sector, with seismic shifts in gaming, breakthroughs in consumer electronics, astronomical discoveries, and new debates around digital preservation and privacy. This comprehensive analysis explores the most significant developments, their implications, and what they signal for the future.


Gaming Industry in Turmoil: Layoffs, Cancellations, and the Fight for Game Preservation

Microsoft’s Restructuring: Layoffs, Studio Closures, and Canceled Projects

The gaming world was rocked by Microsoft’s announcement of over 9,000 layoffs, with the Xbox division and its studios bearing the brunt. Studios like Turn 10, Rare, The Initiative, and ZeniMax Europe suffered heavy losses, and several high-profile projects—including the Perfect Dark reboot, Everwild, and the sci-fi MMORPG Blackbird—were abruptly canceled. The move is widely attributed to Microsoft’s pivot toward AI investment and cost-cutting, raising concerns about the company’s acquisition strategy and the future of its creative output (ipon.hu, tek.sapo.pt, clavecd.es).

Key Cancellations and Studio Impacts

Perfect Dark: Once a flagship reboot, canceled amid controversy over “fake” gameplay trailers and internal struggles (3djuegos.com).
Everwild: Rare’s ambitious project, now shelved.
Blackbird: ZeniMax’s sci-fi MMORPG, praised internally but axed despite smooth development (multiplayer.it, kotaku.com).
Turn 10 Studios: The Forza Motorsport team reportedly dissolved, with remaining staff shifted to support Forza Horizon (eurogamer.pt, indian-tv.cz).

Industry Backlash and AI Controversy

Microsoft’s simultaneous promotion of AI tools for game development—even as it cut thousands of jobs—sparked outrage among developers and industry observers. Many see this as emblematic of a broader trend: automation and AI adoption are reshaping the workforce, but not always in ways that benefit creative professionals (purepc.pl).

Not All Is Lost: Kojima’s OD Survives

Amid the carnage, Hideo Kojima’s OD—a psychological horror project in partnership with Xbox—remains in development, at least for now. Despite rumors of a split, sources confirm the project is safe, highlighting Microsoft’s continued faith in Kojima’s creative vision (windowscentral.com, spaziogames.it).


The “Stop Killing Games” Movement: Gamers Demand Digital Preservation

The Stop Killing Games initiative, launched by YouTuber Accursed Farms, has surpassed one million signatures, forcing the European Commission to review the issue of remote game shutdowns and digital preservation (playzone.cz, nordichardware.se, ppe.pl). The campaign, supported by influencers like Elon Musk and PewDiePie, seeks to make it illegal for publishers to render purchased games unplayable after server shutdowns.

Highlights

Ubisoft’s The Crew and EA’s Anthem (see below) are cited as examples of games rendered unplayable due to online-only requirements.
– The movement has ignited a debate about digital ownership, consumer rights, and the preservation of video game heritage (bezprawnik.pl, gry-online.pl).


EA’s Anthem: The End of a Troubled Era

EA has announced the final shutdown of Anthem’s servers on January 12, 2026, marking the end of BioWare’s ambitious but ill-fated online shooter (ea.com, engadget.com, heise.de). With no offline mode, the game will become completely unplayable, fueling the urgency of the Stop Killing Games campaign.

Key Points

Premium currency sales have already ceased.
– Anthem will be removed from EA Play and digital stores in August 2024.
– The shutdown underscores the risks of always-online games and the need for legal safeguards for consumers (polygon.com, ign.com).


MindsEye and Build a Rocket Boy: Launch Disaster and Studio Turmoil

Build a Rocket Boy’s much-hyped game MindsEye suffered a disastrous launch, plagued by bugs and unfinished content. The fallout included layoffs, internal turmoil, and CEO Leslie Benzies blaming “internal and external saboteurs” for the failure. The studio now plans a relaunch in hopes of salvaging its reputation (journaldugeek.com, esport1.hu, hu.ign.com).


Resident Evil: Survival Unit—A Franchise Reinvents Itself for Mobile

Capcom announced Resident Evil: Survival Unit, a real-time strategy (RTS) spin-off for iOS and Android, developed with Joycity and Aniplex. This marks a bold departure from the franchise’s survival-horror roots, aiming to attract both veterans and newcomers (ign.com, eurogamer.es, vandal.elespanol.com).
