Welcome back to another exciting edition of The Game Informer Show, where we're breaking down a huge slate of announcements from Gamescom Opening Night Live, including looks at Saints Row, Halo Infinite, and so much more! We even got a February release date for Horizon Forbidden West. We're also discussing our Psychonauts 2 review and our hands-on time with Riders Republic! 

If that wasn't enough, The Council of Alexes is joined by GI's own EIC Andrew Reiner and special guest Jesse Vitelli, editor at Prima Games, for all the fun. 

On top of another excellent section of Community Emails, we also maybe join a cult? You'll just have to tune in to find out.
