This week’s Breaking News covers the wildest stories from mobile gaming, ad tech, privacy, and monetization. From brand-new global launches (Bleach, Resident Evil, Villains Robot) to Unity’s new ad-tech push, to JamCity’s $1.4M CCPA fine — Matej breaks it down with zero fluff.

What you’ll learn

• Bleach: Soul Resonance launches with millions of preregs

• Resident Evil Survival Unit hits 1M downloads in 48 hours + $150K/day

• Real Farm Craft expansion (but almost no revenue)

• Villains Robot BR + blockchain weirdness

• Molang: Match & Munch launches (and makes $100/day)

• Unity’s “Vector” returns again + new ad ecosystem tools

• Playable ads → the next $124B brand frontier

• JamCity fined $1.4M for CCPA violations

• Why e-commerce brands are now using playables
