Indeed, Ubisoft recently stated that AC Valhalla will get more support than even Odyssey, and fans are already seeing some of this....

Gearbox’s next online multiplayer shooter, Battleborn, is just days away from launch. Today’s trailer celebrates with 25 characters worth of style and silliness.

The team behind Borderlands has created 25 unique characters, created a cooperative or solo campaign to tell those characters’ stories, and then made several arenas for those characters to obliterate each other off the face of the universe....
