It’s back to business as usual. The HPCritical Podcast crew convenes once again to discuss the latest in gaming news. It’s been a bit of a slow week, but the crew dives into everything from the Apple vs Epic lawsuit outcome, Insomniac games making their superhero titles PS5 exclusives, everyone tired of seeing GTAV, and the weirdness that is Xbox exclusive studios games exclusively on the PlayStation for a limited time. Come hang out and hear about the latest in gaming news with us.

We promised some fun last week, and on this week’s episode of the HPCritical Podcast, we deliver. First up, we discuss a few of the more pressing issues in gaming recently including Blizzard changing the name of McCree in Overwatch after their lawsuit issues, and Fortnite holding a Martin Luther King Jr. immersive experience with TIME to help educate players on civil rights. We also mention Pokémon and its series coming to the Switch and a few more quick topics before we move on to our fun and that’s video game 100 questions. Brandon, Kellie, and Gabe will ask 100 yes or no questions to guess a game based on a variety of titles discussed on the podcast. It’s like a simple game of 20 questions, except they’ve got 100 questions to guess as many games as they can. Watch to see how well they do!

We’ve got another really packed week here at the HPCritical Podcast headquarters. For this week’s episode we dive back into gaming news, but take some time to contemplate some other topics and share what we’ve been playing lately. Look forward to conversations on Twitch apologizing once again for how its marginalized community is being handled while addressing hate raids, Alex Hutchinson defends his new all white and mostly male gaming studio, a number of Blizzard employees (including Diablo 4 director Luis Barriga) have been let go, and that’s just the tip of the hot topics iceberg. There’s more to discuss with stories from Apex Legends to Nintendo, to the selling of Crunchyroll. Come have a listen!

The HPCritical podcast crew returns with the latest in gaming news, and with so many developing stories surrounding Activision Blizzard we take a look at everything that’s happened since the revelation of the lawsuit up until the time of the podcast recording. The California Department of Fair Employment and Housing has filed a lawsuit against Activision Blizzard for unequal pay, sexual harassment, and retaliation against female employees. Our last episode only scratches the surface of what happened, this week we take an in-depth look at all that has transpired since our last podcast recording you can check out here. Part one of this entire episode is dedicated to the current Activision Blizzard situation, and for the next hour, the podcast crew discusses what’s happened until now. Therefore this episode requires a trigger warning as we briefly discuss sexual harassment and suicide.

If you’d like to hear the second half of this podcast where we discuss the other gaming news of the week, stay tuned to your podcast feed where you’ll be able to hear our thoughts on the latest in gaming news not surrounding Activision Blizzard.
