This week’s episode of Save Room news is a hybrid one since we had so much to talk about. We’re calling this zany format Save Room News Plays Reviews—we’ll leave it up to the audience to see if it sticks.

This week: Jeff Kaplan has abandoned the Overwatch payload and is leaving Blizzard; Josef Fares is pleased that It Takes Two has surpassed 1 million copies sold; and Sony has flip flopped on their decision to close the PS3 and Vita digital storefronts. We’re also playing Nier Replicant (and we’re kind of obsessed with it).

For our topic we reviewed the new Mortal Kombat movie which just released in theatres and on HBO Max. It’s a bloody good time full of quips, gruesome fatalities, and a whole lotta Kano.
