Listen Later

We kick things off by sharing what we’ve been playing recently. Joe dives into Star Wars Jedi: Survivor on the PlayStation 5 and doesn’t hold back on its buggy performance and inconsistencies. Meanwhile, Bryan, after a shocking revelation in NieR Replicant, sparks a deeper conversation on whether art can sometimes cross the line.

Next, we revisit Concord and its looming release, discussing the surprising lack of interest and what that could mean for Firewalk Studios under Sony's wing. We then explore the unexpected news of Tango Gameworks being saved from closure by Krafton, who has acquired them and their latest IP, Hi-Fi Rush. We also speculate on what Xbox’s next big title might be on the PlayStation ecosystem, following a hint from industry insider Shinobi602 on ResetEra. Finally, we wrap up the news segment with excitement over Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s confirmed release date and Bryan is definitely on board!

Our special topic of the show tackles Bluepoint Games’ next move. Known for their masterful remakes and remasters, such as the Nathan Drake Collection and Demon’s Souls (2020), we debate whether they should continue perfecting the art of remakes or venture into creating something entirely original. Could a Bloodborne II be in the cards? Tune in for our thoughts!
