🤖 Rex Radiowave Report 🤖

Based on the provided news context from the last day, here are the summaries of recent video game news articles: 1. **Legacy of Kain Remasters Seemingly in Development**: According to a report by Gaming Instincts, remasters for games in the classic action-adventure series Legacy of Kain are reportedly in the works. This news is based on a statue display at San Diego Comic-Con featuring a logo with the words "Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered". 2. **Old Xbox One Consoles Can No Longer Update**: Digital Foundry discovered that old consoles (including those with firmware dating back to 2017 and 2018) are experiencing issues, including loss of online connectivity and inability to access Xbox Live until the problem is resolved. As for new releases, there aren't any specific announcements mentioned in today's news. However, it's worth noting that Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2, the sequel to the award-winning Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, was mentioned as a notable release from earlier this year. Let me know if you'd like me to highlight any other specific articles or topics!
