Forbidden West Hits PS Plus, State of Play Returns & No Hogwarts DLC | Triangle Squared Ep. 295

Extra/Premium tier's monthly catalog additions finally bring a newer 1st party game to the service with Horizon: Forbidden West hitting PS Plus, potentially giving us an indication of how PlayStation intends to use 1st party titles with it's subscription service in contrast to Xbox's Game Pass. We share our thoughts on this, State of Play returns with a PSVR2 and 3rd party focused showcase, Hogwarts Legacy seemingly not planning any DLC or post-launch content, Sonic Frontiers vastly exceeding Sega's expectations and how that lead to an increased budget for the next title, Microsoft signing 10 year deals with GeForce Now & Nintendo ahead of the hearings for their Acitvision/Blizzard/King deal while bringing up PlayStation market share dominance, and more! Join us on this week's Triangle Squared: A PlayStation Podcast!
