Episode 186 - Payday 3 | Witchfire | Xbox So Leaky

2 hours 18 minutes

In an unprecedented information leak from FTC court documents, we got a full view behind the curtain of Xbox plans & conversations over the past few years. Console redesigns, acquisition plans, thoughts on the competition, and major game sequels were among the most notable items. We talk about a bunch of it this episode along with our thoughts on Payday 3 having a rough launch, early access for Witchfire, Cyberpunk 2077’s 2.0 update, and more thoughts on Lies of P, Mortal Kombat 1, Starfield, Sea of Stars, and more!
